The joy only lasted for a week. They dropped to hell from heaven as their dream of getting rich had shattered, and they were left with nothing overnight.Luckily, Sophia secretly asked someone to mediate a solution and cover the matter up in the name of John. Otherwise, the bunch would have been sent to jail.Judy lost all the money she had earned from the Larson family. On the other hand, Davis suddenly returned to the kind of life before he was released. He could only make a living wage in Mary’s beauty salon. Judy was so furious that she almost fainted. She gave her son a piece of her mind. Nevertheless, what was done was done. The money would surely not come back to her.Now that Benedict had been fired by the Garcias, he had no place to stay, and so he stayed in a shabby motel for the time being.Judy originally did not feel inclined to resign from the Larson family. With this situation, she did not even dare to leave her job. If she stepped out of the Larson family’s house
”President Larson, Doctor Harris is here to see Madam again. She insisted on entering the hospital ward, but we stopped her.” “Alright.” Michael’s eyes were cold. That Winona was not willing to give up. She would even dare to take action! Now, he finally understood the full story of this situation. Sophia schemed against his mother and shifted the blame to Christina so that Serena could marry into the Larson family. Judy only accepted Sophia’s bribe because she could gain something from Sophia. However, what about Winona? Why did she treat his mother like that? Michael could not think of an answer. Heather viewed Winona as her best friend. Whenever Heather acquired something good, she would always save a piece for Winona. She had even bared her soul to Winona. As such, Winona had no reason to hate his mother at all. Winona was a doctor, and she was not short of cash as well. She did not require Sophia’s help to achieve anything. Why would she willingly become Sophia’s acc
Michael could not find any information regarding the details. It had been such a long time since the incident. It was hard to confirm whether Winona had a child with Sophia’s cousin. However, according to the information that he had discovered, Sophia’s cousin had indeed clung to Winona every day. He had even stayed in her house overnight. Winona was a pretty lady. Logically speaking, she would never like a ruffian like him. However, the man who took care of her throughout the few months of her pregnancy was Sophia’s cousin. Eventually, Sophia’s cousin was later sent to prison as he committed a crime. There was another problem. Winona’s brother, Martin, was a world-renowned architect. When Winona was at the lowest point of her life, why did she not go to her brother for help? Why did she hide in Hoover Alley instead? As Michael thought of that, he was reminded of Francis’s past. The Francis that he knew now used to be Martin in the past. That was another mystery. Martin had b
”Christina still doesn’t know that I’m not her uncle, so I hope that you won’t tell Christina that I am Martin Harris. I don’t want to affect her emotions.” “Don’t worry. I won’t tell Christina.” Michael guaranteed. It was obvious that Martin was taking care of Christina. In Christina’s eyes, Martin was her uncle. Michael did not need to disrupt the harmony between them. “I still need to ask you about Winona’s past. You’re her brother, so you should understand her well, right? What kind of person do you think she is?” Martin remained silent for a while. Then, he replied with three words, “Selfish and evil.” “Christina should have told you about what happened to my mother, right? I suspect that my mother became like this because Winona plotted against her.” As Michael thought of his unconscious mother, who was still in the hospital, he felt extremely sad. He then told Martin about how Winona helped Sophia and Serena scheme against his mother and himself. “To speak the trut
Michael told Logan to settle this matter as soon as possible. After returning home, Martin was furious after his meetup with Michael. He knew that Winona was a bad person, but he did not expect that Winona would go this far. Martin was a kind person at heart. Even though Winona had done so many scornful things towards Molly in the past, Winona was still his sister, no matter what. He thought that he should give her another chance. He thought that Winona would repent after all these years. However, he did not expect that she would not change at all. Winona would even harm another human’s life to break Christina and Michael apart. Now, Martin finally realized that a leopard never changes its spots. His silence and tolerance would not result in Winona’s repentance. On the contrary, he was helping her to become more arrogant. Winona had always threatened to expose Francis’s true identity as Martin. Back then, he chose to be patient as he did not want to worry Christina. Martin al
After knowing that the two babies in Serena’s womb were boys, Michael felt overjoyed. He reminded the doctor to give Serena anti-abortifacient drugs. He also said that he will personally accompany Serena out of the hospital. “You need to be careful when you go out. Please don’t allow your children to get hurt. Plus, both of them are boys. That’s fantastic!” Serena was jubilant as well. Did that mean that Michael accepted the children in her womb? After thinking about it, Serena figured that was the case. The Larson family had had only one son per generation for several decades. As such, they would definitely favor the boys. That was why Heather cared for Travis that much. Now that she had two boys in her womb, it was natural that Michael would have a change of attitude. After leaving Michael, Serena quietly went back to the doctor to ask for confirmation. Did she really have two boys in her womb? “Miss Garcia, I can’t be too sure about that. However, your mother told me tha
When Serena saw the syringe that was about to pierce through her skin, she was so scared that her whole body began to shake. “Michael, I’m scared! Can I choose to not draw my blood?” “No way! You need to do it for our children!” Serena closed her eyes as she dared not to look. Fortunately, the doctor was experienced as she successfully drew the blood from Serena’s body. It was not as painful as Serena had expected. After drawing her blood, the doctor changed to another syringe and took some amniotic fluid from her uterus. That caused Serena’s face to turn pale as she sat up out of fear. “That was such a long needle. I was so scared just now!” Tears were welling up in her eyes as she dived into Michael’s embrace. Michael held Serena and said with a gentle voice, “You’ve gone through a lot for our children.” At first, Serena wanted to rub up on Michael. However, Michael helped her to sit on a chair. He then turned around to ask the doctor about her condition. The doctor sai
”She brought this upon herself. We don’t need to be merciful towards her.” Furthermore, Heather was still in a coma. Michael definitely would not let them go. This was just the beginning! Michael did not plan on telling Serena the truth. He told Christina because he wanted to prove his innocence. After that, he might need to go along for the ride with Serena. As such, Michael wanted Christina to mentally prepare herself. He did not want her to misunderstand him when the time came. It was not long after Serena had finished her amniocentesis surgery at the hospital. When Michael returned home, he told Logan to prepare some gifts for the Garcia family. Serena was lying on the bed as she told Sophia about how Michael acted in the hospital today. Sophia thought that something was off when she heard that Michael accompanied Serena to do her prenatal check-up. He had even allowed Serena to go through amniocentesis. That was not something Michael would normally do. Michael had too
