All Chapters of Ninety-Nine Wishes, One Broken Marriage: Chapter 451 - Chapter 460

Dawn was just breaking.Camilla washed up and changed into a beautiful, pale yellow dress.She hadn't slept for long last night, and there were faint dark circles under her eyes, but she looked unusually energetic. There was a merry sparkle in her eyes.She put on some light makeup to conceal her dark circles and got ready to leave.As she passed Charlotte's room, she quietly twisted the doorknob and peeked inside, only to discover that her sister was still asleep.Camilla hesitated, but she did not wake her.She had her own agenda. She wanted to be alone with Jeremy today, and it would not be appropriate to bring Charlotte along.After Camilla closed the door quietly, she took out her phone and typed out a message to Jeremy. "Remember what we agreed on today. Come to the villa for lunch at noon."She also sent him the location. The message was sent successfully, but there was no reply.Camilla didn't think much of it. After all, it was so early. Jeremy now had flexible workin

Plates of delectable, appetizing dishes were laid out on the dining table around a pot of golden chicken soup. An ornately wrapped bouquet was placed on the main seat.Everything seemed expectant, as if waiting for the master of the villa to come home.Camilla looked at the spread she had laid out and finally nodded in satisfaction.She glanced up at the clock on the wall. "That's odd, it's been more than half an hour. Why hasn't Jeremy arrived yet? The food's going to get cold."Camilla hesitated for a moment, then picked up her phone once more and typed out a message. "Jeremy, are you on the way? Did you go the wrong way or are you having trouble finding the place?"She waited for a while, but there was no reply at all.She couldn't help scrolling up to see their chat history. Apart from their conversation the night before, Jeremy hadn't replied to any of the messages she'd sent that day.However, the messages were clearly getting through to him.Camilla couldn't help feeling

"Doctor, how is she? Is my daughter alright?" Harriet anxiously grabbed the female gynecologist who had just walked out of the hospital room.The doctor took off her mask and said reassuringly, "Don't worry, Ms. Sloan is in pretty good health, and she's awake now. She probably fainted because she got emotional, or because she was triggered somehow."Mrs. Sloan, you mustn't say anything to trigger Ms. Sloan now."She sighed and said, "The most important thing for pregnant women is to maintain a good mood in the early stages. If Ms. Sloan goes on like this, the baby might…"She trailed off without saying anything explicit, but Harriet knew what she meant.When the doctor had gone, Harriet pulled herself together and walked hurriedly into the hospital room.As soon as she opened the door, she saw Camilla leaning back in bed and staring vacantly into space.When Harriet sat down beside the bed, the blank look in Camilla's eyes finally flickered slightly. She turned her pale face t

It was late at night. Jeremy lay on the pull-out couch in the living room under a comforter and began drifting off to sleep.However, while he was half-asleep, he felt a soft body snuggling down beside him. The body felt heavy, so it wasn't Wendy.Jeremy was immediately wide awake. He was about to get up warily and push the person away, but a familiar voice spoke up. "This couch is kind of cramped."Jeremy heard the complaint. Moonlight illuminated who it was. "Jane? Since you're back, why didn't you go to Wendy's room?"Jane paused, but instead of being careful as she had been earlier, she just burrowed deeper into the blankets."We've only just acknowledged Wendy as our younger sister, and Angela is a guest. They can each stay in one room. I'll reluctantly squeeze in with you."What she said seemed logical, but Jeremy felt exasperated. "Is that really the case?"Jane rolled her eyes at him. "What else can I do? Do you want me to sleep on the floor?"Jeremy thought for a momen

"If you agree, I can guarantee that what the Falkens do next will have nothing to do with you," Matthew said.Ralph shook his head decisively almost at once."Mr. Falken, I know that you don't want me to get involved in this mess, but do you really think I can escape unscathed?"Besides, this is a rare opportunity. If we handle it well, the Sloans will become a prominent family from now on and make our descendants proud. Who could refuse that?"Matthew merely said impassively, "This will mean gambling your daughter's life. I have a daughter too, and as a father, I'm just giving you a chance to back out. If you've thought things through, I won't try to dissuade you further."Ralph said calmly, "Mr. Falken, I have no other choice. If the past is exposed, it won't just be my daughter who's at risk, it'll be my entire family."Besides, aren't you in the same boat as me right now? Although you're not willing to do it, you have no choice because you're a Falken. If you don't do anythin
