All Chapters of You Watched Me Break, Now Watch Me Rise: Chapter 711 - Chapter 720

Last night, Beverly had taken two supplement pills and a calming peppermint tea, courtesy of Wanda's incessant nagging.She'd just woken up, and her face was slightly puffy due to water retention. Her glistening dark eyes became more alluring when they flickered at the word "babe".Years of using expensive skincare made Beverly's already-flawless skin glow. The water retention added a touch more weight to her face, making her look younger.James pinched her soft waist when she didn't respond, then trailed kisses up her collarbone and chin. He was about to kiss her lips when she turned away, mumbling, "I haven't brushed my teeth yet…"He chuckled and leaned in to kiss her anyway.However, she beat him to it and clamped a hand over her mouth. He ended up kissing the back of her hand.His lips were like petals against her skin, brushing against it until a ticklish sensation spread through her hand. She kept her palm firmly over her mouth, revealing only her dark, glistening eyes lik

Tucked away in Coastmere was a top-tier private hospital belonging to the Hansons, established in memory of Jacob.The hospital currently catered to those in high society who ran in the same circles as the Hansons and therefore offered utmost discretion to its patients.Wanda led Beverly to the OB-GYN department. Beverly was the only patient on the list that day. The department covered everything from consultation, documentation, venipuncture, and prenatal tests.The doctor's report came at the end. "Mrs. Bronson Senior, Mrs. Bronson is, indeed, pregnant. From the looks of it, she's about ten days along. Is she on any medication?""No.""I see…" The OB-GYN, Jules Ramsey, thought Beverly's bloodwork didn't look too optimistic and decided to run another test personally, adding, "It's best to take extra precautions during the early stages of pregnancy, especially when it comes to bedroom matters."Beverly's cheeks turned pink, but she nodded nonetheless.As worried as Wanda was abo

Beverly's trepidation rose like bile in her throat. She wanted to leave, but James had a firm grip on her wrist. It was only after she spotted the thick medical record in Wendell's hand that her racing heart slowed to a steady beat."Chief Bronson, this is Mrs. Bronson Senior's medical record." Naturally, Wendell was referring to Wanda, not Beverly.Wendell nodded at Jules, who immediately explained, "Mrs. Bronson Senior is experiencing constant discomfort due to menopause. She's been doing checkups and receiving treatments from me."Mrs. Bronson brought her in today after she complained of a dizzy spell and shortness of breath. Normally, Mr. Bronson Senior accompanies her…"Jules didn't miss a beat.Harvey and Wanda's days-long argument had left the latter infuriated, which aggravated her menopause symptoms.She couldn't very well confide in her maids or outsiders about something so personal. It seemed reasonable that she'd asked Beverly to accompany her to the hospital.Howeve

"Got it!" Beverly hung up, then glared at James before pulling her hand out of his grip.The supplements were in her purse, which was in her car. She had heart surgery after giving birth to Esther and was put on heart medications for a while. She stopped taking them as she felt better, and she was also given reassurances from everyone that the surgery was a success.James' doctor then suggested that she take supplements instead.As it turned out, she'd never gotten better. She only felt like it because she'd been taking drugs over the past two years. James had lied to her again!She grabbed Wanda and whirled to leave.James stared at her speechlessly.Wanda, on the other hand, glanced back and forth between James and Beverly, equally helpless.No sooner had Beverly and Wanda left the hospital than they were stopped by one of the Hansons' staff members. "Mrs. Bronson Senior, Mrs. Bronson, you've been invited to the Hanson estate by Mrs. Hanson Senior. She wishes to see you both a

James noticed Beverly lower her gaze, her expression unreadable, though she stopped pulling her hand away."It was Uncle Alexis who called Evan over. He told Evan we were arguing, and that he should hurry over to win you back."After saying this, James saw Beverly lift her eyes to look at him.He held back the surge of joy within him, his face betraying nothing but a quiet, composed calm."Honey, I'm the one you love and care for. How could you possibly choose him over me just because I accidentally upset you? Uncle Alexis clearly looked down on you, didn't he?"His voice was soft, carried to her ears by the warm sea breeze drifting through the window.Beverly looked up and met Evan's gaze across the table.Alexis had no idea how deeply calculating James was or how skillfully he assessed situations to turn them to his advantage. In fact, he took particular pride in seating Evan directly opposite Beverly.At that moment, as their eyes met, everyone present held their breath.Al
