Semua Bab You Watched Me Break, Now Watch Me Rise: Bab 71 - Bab 80

"I don't have any problems with you. You're one of my most treasured friends, so how could I possibly speak badly of you in front of your mother-in-law? I just wanted to restore Shaw Group's partnership with Gray Corporation."You know how useless my brothers are and that my uncles are all waiting to pounce on us. If they find out that I'm the reason the deal with Gray Corporation fell through, my family will lose its standing in Shaw Group. We might even lose control of the company, as well as everything I have now."I only went to beg Heather because I was at my wits' end. Please forgive me, Bev. Help me, please?" Camelia begged.Beverly pulled her hand out of Camelia's grasp. She shut her eyes, unable to stand the latter's insincerity.Camelia's gentle gaze instantly turned menacing, and she stormed out of the hospital room. She immediately called Cindy and told her the news about Beverly's pregnancy.If Beverly was going to make her life miserable, then Camelia wasn't going to

"Is that true, Mr. Gray?" one of the officers asked.As one of the most powerful tycoons in Alterra, Evan was often featured on the front pages of major business publications as well as in interviews. His reputation for being devoted to his wife also preceded him. So, the officer recognized him immediately.Gerard and Quinn both craned their necks, looking at Evan expectantly."Mr. Gray, I know that Bev is your wife, but you shouldn't hide the truth. She's a vicious woman who harmed her own half-sister just because of a decades-old dispute between her mother and me. You can't protect someone like her. Cindy and her unborn child are still hanging on by a thread…"Seeing Evan hesitate, Beverly's face turned pale. She stumbled backward and collapsed onto the couch.Another voice suddenly cut in."My daughter-in-law is very kind. She would never do such a thing!" Heather exclaimed.She'd just heard the news when she returned with Olive Newman, one of the maids who worked at Gray Man

"W-what are you blabbering about? What kidnapping?" Gerard tried to play dumb as he evaded everyone's eyes out of guilt. Evan pulled Beverly closer against him, his dark, menacing gaze locked on Gerard."Even if you don't admit it, there's nothing I can do about it. After all, ten years have passed, and there are no witnesses or physical evidence. "But I've already given you the chance to come clean. You're the one who doesn't want to take it," Beverly said as she stared at the face that had haunted her dreams all these years.With that, she walked away. Heather and Olive immediately followed her.Evan stood there, his dark eyes narrowing as he stared at Gerard icily. No one could hurt Beverly and not pay the price.He shot his bodyguards a signal, and they immediately moved in and grabbed Gerard.Gerard cried out in a panic, "Mr. Gray! Don't listen to Beverly's nonsense. I'm her biological father! Why would I kidnap her?"He'd heard what Beverly said—she didn't have witnesse

Evan would kick Cindy out of Alterra once she woke up. As for Emmeline, he would send her overseas. That way, everything would return to normal between him and Beverly.Beverly didn't want to debate any further with Heather, so she reluctantly agreed to let Olive go to the apartment with her.The minivan had just pulled out of the garage when Harold suddenly darted out from the side and threw himself in front of it.Shocked, Arthur slammed on the brakes, startling Beverly. He hurriedly got out of the minivan to check if Harold was injured and then took him inside."Mom, I want to go live with you in the apartment. I don't want to stay here."Right then, Janet came rushing out of the manor. She gave Beverly a polite nod before grabbing Harold. "Mr. Harold, you scared me to death! You can't go off running like that without saying a word! Your piano teacher is already here, and Theresa has already started her lesson. Let's hurry back, or your father will be upset.""I'm not going ba

Everyone immediately rushed forward.Beverly grabbed the surgeon's hand, visibly emotional. "Doctor, how's my son?""Mrs. Gray, when your son fell, he hit his forehead on a rock buried in the grass. The wound was rather big, and that's why it was bleeding heavily. It looked frightening, but it wasn't as severe as it appeared. We sutured the wound and stopped the bleeding. He's fine now."However, because it's a head trauma, he needs to stay in the hospital for a few days to make sure he doesn't have a concussion.""He's really okay?" Beverly asked. Just thinking about the bloody scene from before still made her tremble."You can rest easy, Mrs. Gray. I assure you there's nothing to worry about," the surgeon reassured."Thank you, doctor."Beverly let out a sigh of relief. When she saw Harold being wheeled out of the operating room, still unconscious, her eyes welled up with tears again. All of them followed him to his assigned patient room.Even though the doctor had said that
