All Chapters of You Watched Me Break, Now Watch Me Rise: Chapter 681 - Chapter 690

Wanda was slightly taken aback when she noticed the guarded look in James' eyes."The gowns have been delivered, so I asked Bev to come try them on," Wanda explained.At that moment, a maid approached, holding the gowns in her hands."Since you're back now, you can help Bev decide," Wanda added."Send them over," James said as he bent down and scooped Beverly up. He watched her avert her gaze, then gently pressed her face into his chest.His eyes swept over her clothes, and he sighed inwardly before striding away. Her clothes had gotten dirty from the fall.The maid immediately followed, carrying the gowns.As Wanda remained standing there, watching them leave, Harvey came up behind her and wrapped his arm around her shoulder.She nestled gently into his embrace. "If Bev agrees and James is forced into being with another woman, the consequences…""We might not see him for years, and he might never forgive us for the rest of his life.""Is such an outcome really worth it?""A

Beverly really had James eating out of the palm of her hand.Just then, Wendell's phone rang."Chief Bronson, it's Dr. Woodard."James took the call."Chief Bronson, the condom was torn—was it an accident?" Vern asked cautiously.Matters of privacy weren't something an outsider like him should normally interfere in. But Wendell had always handled things with extreme care, and James' DNA absolutely mustn't fall into anyone else's hands.The sanitation at James' residence was handled by a specialized cleaner, who was also responsible for securely disposing of all collected materials.Vern knew Beverly couldn't get pregnant due to her heart condition, and there was no way James would allow it either.James' expression turned cold and stern. "One of them was torn?""No, all of them were torn."…Beverly's group arrived at the private airport. Beverly led Esther onto the plane, followed by William, Tabitha, Maya, Kathy and four plainclothes special forces operators.The plane be

Trudy had been plagued by nightmares the whole night. One moment she dreamed that James failed to find Beverly and was taking it out on her instead. The next, she dreamed that she was out there somewhere, repeating the same words over and over.Now, seeing James was like facing her own personal nightmare, and any lingering thoughts she might have had before were long gone."Mrs. Bronson, should I help you?" Trudy ventured cautiously."No, it's fine. You can go."Trudy hesitated, her steps faltering.Suddenly, the realization dawned on Beverly that if Trudy were to go out now, it would be a sign of poor work performance."Then turn around. I can manage on my own."Trudy had no choice but to do so."Mrs. Bronson, about the text I sent you yesterday—""I know it has nothing to do with you. James forced you to send it, didn't he?"Trudy didn't dare to answer.Beverly was beyond furious. "He might look gentle, but he's actually rotten to the core. All he does is lie to me."Ju

At that moment, James was standing at the top of the staircase and looking up toward the third floor.The pale yellow light bathed his handsome, tense face, and the faint glimmer in his eyes deepened into an abyssal vortex, as if ready to swallow everything within its reach.It turned out Beverly had known about this all along.Getting no reaction from James, Evan gazed at him coldly. "If you truly loved and cherished her all these years, you shouldn't just stand by and watch her… Just let her go with me."James shifted his icy gaze toward Evan's face, though his words were directed at Ramon. "Evan has trespassed and harassed Bev—"Holding his dislocated arm, Evan endured the pain. But the anguish in his heart cut far deeper.With a tone that bordered on pleading, he cut James off. "She doesn't have much time left. If it was you who gave way back then—if you were willing to bear everything for her—then give her to me. I swear on everything I have that I'll never let her down for

Hearing James' reply, Beverly felt her face flush, and her ears grew even hotter. "Why do you remember it so clearly?"James' hand slid from her earlobe down her jawline, tilting her small chin up. He lowered his head and replied with a hint of resignation, "Just do what I say."She burrowed deeper into his arms and mumbled vaguely, "But I'm scared of that thing."He leaned down to kiss her, his tongue tenderly tracing her lips as if to calm her. "Don't be afraid. They wouldn't dare to hurt you." Then, his voice dropped to a whisper near her ear. "Are you deliberately seducing me like this because you know we can't actually do anything?"Her face flushed bright red. "No, of course not."Well, who made him treat her like a puppet on a string all the time?Before they left, Beverly went to the restroom and examined the sanitary pad in surprise. There was only a faint yellow stain on it.Maybe she really did need to get a checkup after all.…Half an hour later, Beverly was buy
