All Chapters of You Watched Me Break, Now Watch Me Rise: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Cindy reached out to caress Evan's chest, but he took her hand, his shrewd gaze falling on her face. "Beverly pushed you down the stairs, you said? Wasn't it the other way around? Weren't you jealous that she'd gotten pregnant? You created a distraction to make me leave so that you could pick on her, didn't you?"Shock flickered across Cindy's face when she heard his accusations. Why was he saying such things when he'd seen her fall out of the window? "Evan, why would I do that to Beverly? Besides, I didn't even know she was pregnant to begin with. I accidentally learned that she'd been hospitalized and wanted to visit her…"When Quinn realized that Cindy was practically marching toward her own death, she decided to save her own skin and make a run for it.She was hurrying out of the room when Evan suddenly snapped, "Hold it right there!"He pried Cindy's hands off him and turned to face Quinn. "You have quite the nerve to brainwash my son into hurting Beverly. Guards!"Quinn

Evan opened the door to Beverly's hospital room at that moment. She was heartbroken as he pulled her into his arms."I'm so glad you're alright, honey. The baby…" He couldn't help but choke on a sob at the mention of the baby. "We still have Harry."Cold disgust filled Beverly as Evan embraced her, and a chill ran down her spine when she heard Harold's name. She shoved Evan away and wordlessly slid back under the covers.Ashley explained on Beverly's behalf, "Mr. Gray, Mrs. Gray is weak and needs rest.""Leave us," Evan ordered.Hearing this, Ashley had no choice but to leave the room and close the door.Evan tucked the blanket over Beverly, then clutched her pale hand. "Honey, don't take whatever Harry said earlier personally. I've already punished the person who told Harry to hurt you. "She's a crazy shrew who's been hanging around Millie. The Grays won't accept a child raised by someone like that, and I've made sure that Cindy will never show her face around you again."Eva

Beverly's gaze collided with Damien's. She gaped at him in astonishment. What did he mean he'd been waiting for her for many years? Timothy's mother had only passed away five years ago, hadn't she? Beverly didn't recall meeting up with Damien during that time.She'd always put Damien on a pedestal and admired him, but his bold, forthcoming declarations of love were making her brain short-circuit."Damien…" Beverly felt beyond awkward and helpless at this point. "I don't plan to commit to any relationships in the future."How was she supposed to interact with Damien like usual after this?"That means you're not in love with anyone else, so the odds are still in my favor," Damien said, analyzing the situation.Beverly had been pretty and outstanding since she was a child, all qualities that made her popular. Before Evan had come along, plenty of men had pursued her romantically, all of them persistent and enthusiastic in their efforts.But those admirers had wisely backed off aft

Beverly reached for the folder, but Evan grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her behind him. "Thank you for the effort, Professor Reed, but I'm fully capable of protecting my wife."Christina approached them at that moment. Evan asked, "Christina, did you find out who started the rumor?""Evan, someone silenced the rumor online and left no trace of it. Our team can't track down the person who started the rumor or find any lead on it," Christina said hesitantly.The words had only just left her mouth when the guests around them started whispering among themselves. They praised Damien and his team for their efficiency, then mocked Evan."I thought Gray Corporation had the best IT department in Alterra. You'd expect an elite team like theirs to find something by now.""Come on, even the best have leagues of their own.""Yeah, and besides, Damien's a scientific researcher and competes at the national level."Evan couldn't help bristling at the comments."We should accept Professor

Damien smiled and rubbed Timothy's little cheeks. "Thanks, Timmy.""Since your birthday party was held up, I'll make it up to you with another piece of cake.""Yay!" Timothy ran off happily.Bianca suddenly remembered something. "Professor Reed, have you told Mrs. Gray that Timmy isn't your biological son?""Bev loves Timmy. She won't care about his parentage."Bianca was speechless.Did his answer mean the same as what she'd been trying to say? He'd loved Beverly for years and kept himself pure. That should have been a plus, yet he already had a son."Professor Reed, you should still tell Mrs. Gray at some point. Timmy's tragic background might stir up her maternal instincts," Bianca suggested."It's not right to use Timmy like that."A crowd gathered around Damien to offer their greetings, leaving Bianca no chance to continue persuading him. She could only mourn for him silently in her heart.…In the backseat of the Rolls-Royce, Christina spoke up for Evan again and again
