Semua Bab Indulge Her: Bab 231 - Bab 240

Vanessa Galsworthy had just woken up and should have been resting, but the ward was unusually lively today.Qinian returned to Vanessa Galsworthy's room. Facing each other, no one had a pleasant expression."Why are you here? To collect a body?"Qinian never minces her words, especially when it comes to her friend of over a decade lying on the hospital bed. She crossed her arms and scrutinized the Huo mother and son."Something happened at the Montgomery Group. Aren't you going to check on it?"Qinian suddenly spoke, a hint of malice in her smile. Edmund Montgomery seemed to realize something, but before he could ask, his phone rang. It was Clark Toland.Edmund Montgomery moved to a corner before answering the call. "Mr. Montgomery, we're in trouble. Someone reported that our top lawyer has been taking bribes and using the company for personal gain. Now, there are all sorts of negative comments about the company online."Clark Toland paused, then continued. "Some say the Montgom

During Vanessa Galsworthy's hospital stay, Hannah Pope and Marcus Kingsley were often by her side, bickering and laughing, which made the time pass quickly. During this period, Edmund Montgomery visited twice, but since Vanessa Galsworthy didn't want to see him, Hannah Pope kept him at bay outside the door. However, in Vanessa Galsworthy's view, Edmund Montgomery wasn't there to see her but rather to find Hannah Pope. Each time Edmund Montgomery appeared, he would discuss with Hannah Pope about the matter of reporting a lawyer, but Hannah Pope insisted that what she did was simply part of her duty as a lawyer. Clearly, Edmund Montgomery had no way to deal with this formidable lawyer, and each time he left in anger.Vanessa Galsworthy was discharged from the hospital. Marcus Kingsley came specially to pick her up, but at the hospital entrance, Edmund Montgomery was already waiting. Vanessa Galsworthy paused, feeling how swiftly time had passed. Edmund Montgomery stood by his car on the

The next day.The verdict for the two drivers involved in the car accident was handed down. From beginning to end, these two only admitted to poor driving skills and did not confess to intentional homicide. The police had retrieved surveillance footage from the area, but the section where the accident occurred was far from the city, and the cameras were old and damaged.Despite this, the two men were still sentenced to fifteen and seventeen years in prison. This was naturally due to Hannah Pope's efforts.At the same time, early in the morning, Stephanie Doherty received a phone call. One of the two men, before being sent to prison, requested to make a call. The call was to Stephanie Doherty."You said that if we got caught, it would only be for a few years. But now, we've been sentenced to over a decade. Do you think the money you gave us is enough?"The man's voice on the phone was filled with malice.Stephanie Doherty was taken aback. A car accident, and they were sentenced to

Vanessa Galsworthy once again brought up the topic of divorce.If before, she merely wanted to escape this bottomless darkness, now, she wanted to get away from Edmund Montgomery.Her face was devoid of color.It was due to Edmund Montgomery's venomous words and his malicious assumptions.Upon hearing those words, Edmund Montgomery still wore a mocking expression."Divorce? You're pregnant now, and you want a divorce? Do you think the Montgomery family is a place where you can come and go as you please?"His voice pierced her heart like sharp blades.Vanessa Galsworthy's mind had already stopped functioning; she mechanically listened to him and responded."If you want the child, I can leave it with the Montgomery family."Vanessa Galsworthy spoke slowly, her voice carrying a sense of desolation.She had said similar things before, but back then, it was just for the sake of arguing with Edmund Montgomery.She slowly lifted her head, looking at Edmund Montgomery, a bitter smil

"Mom, I'm a bit tired and want to sleep for a while."Vanessa Galsworthy blinked her watery big eyes with a smile on her face, making it hard to tell whether she was sad or happy.But, no one knows a daughter better than her mother."Go ahead, the blankets in your room are all newly changed."Daphne Galsworthy knew she had something on her mind but didn't expose her.Vanessa Galsworthy hugged Daphne Galsworthy before heading upstairs.The moment the door closed, Vanessa Galsworthy's tears finally couldn't be held back.She lay on the bed, covering her cries with the blanket, releasing all the grievances and helplessness of this period, as well as the end of this marriage.Vanessa Galsworthy didn't know that Daphne Galsworthy was standing outside the door.Even though the door blocked some sounds, she could still hear her intermittent sobs.Daphne Galsworthy didn't know what happened, but she wouldn't disturb Vanessa Galsworthy.She knew that Vanessa Galsworthy chose to come
