After over a decade of sincere devotion, Jade’s heart was shattered by those she trusted the most. But thanks to a twist of fate, she got a second chance at life.Determined to make those who wronged her pay the price, Jade got ready for a comeback.She took on her deceitful sister, her malicious adoptive mother, and her hypocritical adoptive father, delivering moments of sweet revenge.As she navigated her way through her rebirth, she was served with a side of unexpected love."Mr. Fitzgerald, could you kindly stop following me around?" she quipped.Caelan raised an eyebrow. "Where else would you find an attentive husband willing to hand you a knife while you're out for revenge?"
View MoreAs a result, they had gotten into trouble with Caelan."The Fitzgeralds' car?" Lloyd was appalled. He had actually collided with Caelan's car at this critical moment."Yes, the car's from the Fitzgeralds. I didn't notice when I was overtaking," the driver said, turning pale with fear. "Mr. Zeal, we're in trouble."Seeing the driver's fearful expression, Lloyd experienced a surge of anger. Amidst the challenges confronting the Zeals, everyone presumed he feared Caelan—even the driver was looking down on him."What's there to be afraid of? Even if it's the Fitzgeralds' car, so what? If it was his fault, then he should take responsibility. Let's get out and see what's going on," Lloyd said, his words calming the driver down a bit.The driver pushed open the door and went to negotiate with Samuel."What's the matter, bro?" Lloyd's driver knocked on the Hummer's window, trying to get Samuel to come out and talk to him.The window rolled down, revealing Samuel with a sarcastic express
Paul had no particular hobbies, his only one being collecting famous calligraphy works and paintings. If Lloyd wanted to seek his help, he would need to appeal to his interests.Jade carefully examined the information on Paul and couldn't help but sigh. She felt like she was facing a difficult problem. She had never met Paul before, so she didn't know what kind of person he was.If he insisted on helping Lloyd out of his relationship with the Zeals, there was a good chance that Kerrigan would be released. It wasn't due to Paul's influence alone. Jade knew that Lloyd would definitely try to find a way through the plaintiffs.Even if Kerrigan faced sentencing, it wouldn't be as harsh as Jade had hoped, provided Lloyd managed to persuade the plaintiffs to withdraw their complaints by offering compensation. In that case, all her efforts would be in vain.Jade furrowed her brows, feeling unsettled.Caelan glanced at her with a chuckle. "What's wrong? Scared?"His eyes held a playful,
'Another woman crazy in love... Hopefully, Kayden won't disappoint her.'A knock on the door interrupted Jade's thoughts. "Come in."Her assistant entered, holding a document. "Lloyd is currently scouring the city for lawyers. It seems he wants to get Kerrigan out.""Looking for a lawyer?" Jade chuckled. "Who would dare take on his case now? It's like digging their own grave."The Zeal family was now a rotten egg—no one would want to associate with them. How could anyone entertain Lloyd now?"So, what do we do next?" the assistant asked.Although Kerrigan had been arrested, there was still a long road ahead. Until Kerrigan's charges were settled, Jade couldn't rest easy.Jade thought for a moment, then replied, "We wait.""Wait?" The assistant looked puzzled. "Ms. Severin, what are we waiting for?"Jade smiled but remained silent, her gaze icy. She was waiting for Lloyd's next move, specifically for him to walk right into her trap. How could there be no one behind the Zeal Gro
Kerrigan was gripped by fear at the sight of the imposing police officers. The involvement of the authorities would uncover even more deep-seated issues. He hadn't anticipated a young girl bringing him down. Once in their custody, he might find it impossible to extricate himself. Despite the dire circumstances, he managed to regain a surprising sense of calm."Officer, can I say a few words to my son?" Kerrigan politely asked.He was now a suspect, not yet a criminal until the investigation was completed, so the police officer nodded. "Please make it quick.""Alright." Kerrigan took out his phone and called Lloyd.Lloyd had been keeping an eye on the press conference, and his absence was at Kerrigan's behest. It was crucial for the Zeal Group's image that only Kerrigan appeared. Any additional presence could have been detrimental.Kerrigan now felt a surge of gratitude toward Lloyd for complying."Lloyd, listen carefully. There's a chance I won't come out unscathed from this. I
Griffin had weighed the pros and cons and knew Jade wasn't bluffing, so he could only stand on her side."It's him. He's the one who sent Kayden to the mental hospital and told us not to care whether he lived or died, as no one would bother about his life or death," Griffin blurted out.He retrieved a check from his pocket and told the reporters, "This is the 150,000-dollar check he gave me. I haven't cashed it. Take a look. It's from the Zeal Group. You'll see I'm telling the truth."The reporters leaned in, discovering it was indeed a check issued by the Zeal Group. Their eyes widened in shock."Oh my god! This really is a check from the Zeal Group!""So Kerrigan was lying just now. He tortured his own brother and attempted to shift the blame onto him. It's truly inhumane.""Hurry, snap some pictures! This is crucial evidence."The reporters snapped photos frenetically, while Kerrigan stood on stage with an ashen face. His mind repeated one thing over and over—'It's over. It's
Just then, a crisp voice echoed from the venue's entrance. "Wait a moment."Sophie whipped her head around and saw Jade striding confidently onto the stage in a black dress. Behind her was a short, chubby middle-aged man who looked rather sleazy.Jade's arrival caused a brief stir. She hadn't shown up when Kerrigan accused her of being the mastermind behind the scenes, so what did her sudden appearance now mean?The reporters speculated that drama would surely unfold next. They aimed their cameras at Jade and thrust their microphones in her direction, urging her to speak.Jade dismissed it all. She strode onto the stage without pause, standing before Kerrigan."Mr. Kerrigan, am I late?" Jade's smile and gaze exuded a hint of coldness. Despite being a young girl, her presence demanded respect.A chill ran down Kerrigan's spine, and he had a premonition of impending doom. When his gaze fell on the man behind Jade, he couldn't help but be surprised.It turned out that Jade had brou
"As you all know, the Zeal Group primarily operates in the pharmaceutical industry. Some individuals envy our success and seek to benefit from it. One such individual has approached me numerous times, expressing interest in collaboration. I thought I should give young people a chance, but I never anticipated her resorting to fraudulent tactics for personal gain."Kerrigan lamented, "Medicine is ingested by people. If it's counterfeit, those who are already unwell will face even greater despair. How could the Zeal Group engage in such heartless actions? Absolutely not. Therefore, I declined her proposition."Consequently, she has launched attacks against the Zeal Group. Whenever we introduce a new medication, she swiftly develops a similar product and competes by undercutting our prices. Her intention is to compel the Zeal Group into submission through these dishonorable means."Addressing the audience pointedly, Kerrigan continued. "I trust you are all aware of whom I speak. I will
"Today's press conference is quite a joke. I kindly ask you to spare my brother. I thank you all for your understanding," Kerrigan said, dipping his head in a bow to the audience.The reporters were astonished. Kerrigan was the victim but was now apologizing for the sake of his family's honor. It was incredibly gracious of him.Suddenly, the public opinion shifted in favor of Kerrigan, praising his generosity and magnanimity. Although his family had wronged him, he still apologized and spoke in their defense.On the other hand, Sophie and Kayden were a disappointment. Sophie had already married Kerrigan, yet she still harbored feelings for her ex. Kerrigan's unwavering affection for her seemed wasted.As the whispers reached Sophie's ears, her face grew even paler. She felt unsteady on her feet as if a gust of wind could knock her over.As for Kayden, he refused to give up despite being restrained. He continued to expose Kerrigan's crimes to the reporters.Kerrigan looked at him
"You... Despicable." Sophie glared hatefully at Kerrigan, blaming herself for being too careless.Since Kerrigan had agreed so easily should have indicated he was prepared—the goal was to lure out Kayden. Now that Kayden had appeared, the objective was accomplished."He's your brother," Sophie said, her voice now tinged with a pleading tone. She was begging Kerrigan to spare Kayden."If you turn back now, maybe I'll show mercy. Otherwise, you know my temper. I'd rather destroy everything than let him off. Even if it means dragging the entire Zeal Group down, I'll make sure he pays," Kerrigan said with a smile, but his words were venomous.Sophie trembled, looking at him as if he were a demon. She never imagined that the man who once doted on her and loved her would turn be a wolf in sheep's clothing."My dear, don't be afraid. You have to know that I've always loved you," Kerrigan said, affectionately patting Sophie's head, but it sent shivers down her spine.She stared blankly a
