Suzy concealed her lips beneath the scarf, a smug expression crossing her face.
A trace of triumphant conspiracy flickered in her eyes.
Fortunately, after more than a decade of sisterly companionship, she was adept at imitating Samantha.
To avoid leaving any trouble for herself, she deliberately imitated Samantha's voice every time she met Tiger.
Tiger was unexpectedly affirmative, "It's you. I remember your voice." After saying this, he took out a phone with a broken screen from his pocket and tremblingly handed it to Ethan. "Every time I talk to her during our meetings, I record it. If you don't believe it, the recordings are on the phone."
Ethan signaled to Jade with a glance.
Jade immediately fetched a laptop, connected the phone to it with a data cable, and, after some manipulation, quickly found the recordings.
"Hey, Tiger, do m
Anna looked at Ethan and asked, "Is what she said true?"Ethan remained silent, looking at Samantha with a hint of playfulness.Samantha understood why he wasn't speaking and lowered her head, sincerely apologizing, "I'm sorry for my previous actions, I didn't know any better, and I've hurt you a lot. I apologize and hope you can forgive me. This matter concerns my innocence, and I hope you won't bring personal grievances into it; let's handle it professionally."Her apology seemed to please Ethan.Finally, Ethan spoke, "She's right; we were indeed together that day."After saying this, he emphasized with a meaningful tone, "The entire day..."The short three words caused everyone present to change their expressions simultaneously.Suzy felt humiliated and unwilling.Liam couldn't believe it.Sama
Ethan's sharp eyes locked onto her, his expressionless face questioning, "When did you find out that Alexander is your son? Who told you? This matter, aside from the Steele family and Samantha, no one else knows. How did you find out?""I, I... I... I..." Suzy's eyes quickly betrayed a hint of panic. Stammering for a while, she couldn't come up with a reasonable excuse.She couldn't say that she had known about this for a long time.Ethan continued pressing, "Since you claim not to know he is your son, then why did you receive an anonymous call? What were the kidnappers' intentions? Why did Samantha kidnap Alexander instead of directly killing him? Samantha has direct evidence of not being present, and you don't."Suzy defended, "She kidnapped Alexander as a ruse, of course to gain benefits from him.""Is that so?" Ethan raised an eyebrow, a smirk playing on his lips. "Suzy, do y
Suzy lied without a hint of embarrassment, "The doctor said the other child was too small, completely blocked by the larger one, so it wasn't detected."This explanation was entirely plausible.In medical terms, such cases have been documented.So, Samantha couldn't refute it.Seeing that her explanation had convinced them, Suzy felt triumphant, though her cries grew even more pitiful."Uncle and Aunt, it's because I love Ethan too much and feared that Samantha would snatch him away. That's why I impulsively did such a thing. I beg for your forgiveness. Please don't tell Alexander about this; otherwise, he'll only dislike me more as his mother."Seeing her crying so miserably, Anna's heart softened.She bent down to help her up, patting the spot she had kicked earlier, expressing apologies, "Did I hurt you with that kick just now? I'm sor
Samantha disappointingly returned the folder to Ethan.Ethan, with an inscrutable look, stared at her and emotionlessly said, "Do you want to know who gave your initial draft to Suzy?"Samantha nodded slightly, then shook her head."What about the investigation? Haven't you already figured out who the internal traitor is? Just can't let it go, trying to deceive yourself," he continued.After a brief moment of sorrow, Samantha suddenly remembered Charlotte. She quickly took out her phone from her pocket and dialed Justin's number.The call was answered instantly.From the receiver came Justin's deep and cheerful voice, "Sammie."Samantha didn't notice any change in his tone and anxiously asked, "How is Charlotte? Is she okay? Did she look for me? Is she behaving?"Justin chuckled, "She's very well-behaved. I just took
One hour later,Jade appeared at the old house.Upon hearing that he came to pick them up to return to Chelsea Creek, Alexander and Noah were overjoyed and immediately clamored to go back.Although the old master was reluctant, he did not forcefully detain them, allowing Jade to take them away.The car slowly entered the Chelsea Creek garage.Before the car even came to a stop, the two couldn't wait and opened the car doors, running down eagerly.When Noah suddenly stopped upon seeing Samantha sitting on the sofa in the living room on the first floor, he stood a few meters away from the sofa, looking timidly at Samantha. His eyes were full of longing, yet he dared not approach.Ms. Samantha had previously treated him as Alexander, which was why she had been kind to him.Now, the truth was revealed.
Perhaps fearing that Samantha would leave him, Alexander stuck close to her side.If Samantha went to the kitchen, he followed to the kitchen.If Samantha went to the bathroom, he waited outside the door.In contrast to his outward emotions, Noah was relatively reserved. He simply sat on the sofa, and wherever Samantha went, his eyes followed.After Alexander's true identity was revealed, Samantha cherished every moment they spent together even more.She personally cooked a table full of delicious dishes for them.Alexander's appetite soared.He picked up his spoon and eagerly devoured the food.In the past four years, he had never felt the way he did now — that his Mommy's cooking was so delicious, surpassing all the delicacies in the world.Noah, despite being excited to eat Samantha's coo
After entering the house, Justin arranged the bought food neatly on the plates. To win Charlotte's favor, he specially bought many beautiful and delicious desserts.As expected, when Charlotte saw the desserts, she forgot everything else and happily planted a kiss on Justin's face, saying, "Thank you, Godfather! I like you the most."Her lips were soft, gentle, and carried the sweet scent. Justin's heart instantly turned tender. He genuinely liked this cute and beautiful little girl who looked exactly like Samantha.Watching them getting along so well, Samantha, on the other hand, lacked enthusiasm, leaning lethargically on the sofa, her mind filled with Alexander.His smiles, his tears, his joys, and his sorrows. Thinking about it, tears uncontrollably streamed down her face.Call her selfish or shameless, but if the price for Alexander to find his biological parents was to be f
Justin didn't evade or dodge, allowing her to vent her frustration through her punches. His response made Karen even more distraught. She knew Justin too well. Justin was a responsible and good man. He decided to marry her out of responsibility. However, now that he could set aside that responsibility, it proved his determination. If it weren't for her taking advantage of the situation the first two times, she wouldn't have had a chance to be with him. During the four years when Samantha disappeared, he never gave up and never felt attracted to any other woman. From start to finish, from childhood to adulthood, his eyes and heart were always on Samantha. Seeing that scolding was useless, Karen could only hug him, crying as if her heart was being torn apart. "Justin, I like you. I liked you at first sig
