However, Frost never expected Sebastian would let Eldon go at the very last second.If Eldon were alive, then Sebastian would learn that she was Eldon's boss one day. In order to ensure that she was safe, she actually killed him to silence him.A woman truly could be extremely vicious!Eldon was so loyal and had worked so hard for her and her entire family, but what he got in return was Frost putting a bullet through his brain."Frost, you seem to have no idea, haven't you?" Sebastian asked coldly.Frost immediately laid down on her stomach in front of Sebastian. "Sebastian, I had no idea. I am clueless. I don't know anything about it. I only know that Eldon has wild intentions, and he wants to be successful. He was not a good person.""I was afraid… I was afraid that would harm the Ford family sooner or later. I then followed him around all day long. I thought, instead of letting him harm your family, why don't I kill him. This way, I would be getting rid of any trouble that may
After the young man was done crying, he watched as Sebastian and Nigel's car drove into the distance. His gaze was very determined, but nobody knew what he was thinking at that moment.Sebastian and Nigel's car were already further and further away.Sebastian directly detained Frost and escorted her to the restaurant in that village where those few families had agreed to meet. That was the first time those families got together after Marcus' grandfather passed away.They originally booked three tables and thought that it would be enough to fit everybody. However, it was after they had arrived that they realized Alex had brought Jane and the children over. Ryan also came along with them.A few months had passed since Ruth had a conflict with Ryan, and she returned to South City after running away from the Poole Residence.It felt like a lifetime had passed when they met again that day."Ruth, have you been well during this period?" Ryan asked.Ruth's tone was already very calm. "
"I earned it all by myself. My life is without pressure, and I feel especially strong. Also, I would still have a few dollars left over every month. One year later, I would be able to have more than one thousand dollars in savings. I will be very happy to have my own savings. I mean it. I just feel I am going great right now."Upon saying that, Ruth looked at Ryan again.After taking a look at him, tears instantly welled up in Ruth's eyes. "R…Ryan…"Ruth felt a lump in her throat as soon as she called out to him, "Ryan… We… I have already thought it through. Both of us are truly not suitable for each other. Let's…get a divorce!"After she said that, Ruth's tears immediately gushed down her cheeks.At that moment, was she still in love with Ryan?Yes. She loved him very much, deep down.However, she truly could not stand being in the Poole family and being disliked by her mother-in-law anymore. She had brought both her sons with her back to South City. Originally, she thought tha
Ryan sneered. "Hmph! You don't even know what happened to your sons, and you had the cheeks to say that I don't care about you and don't take care of your sons?"Ruth was speechless."Ruth! Everybody has different ways to get along with one another. The reason Uncle Alex could treat Aunt Jane as the apple of his eyes and let her do whatever she pleased was that she has never been one to do whatever she pleased, to begin with. Even if you were to take a butcher's knife and put it in her hands, the first thing she would do is not to use the knife to kill others. Instead, she would be so frightened that she would faint in Uncle Alex's arms. She always takes the big picture into consideration! She would always keep all of the grievances that she has suffered and all the disdainful treatments she has received from my grandmother and my aunt to herself! She would never let my uncle know! Everything that Aunt Jane did was for the sake of my uncle. She is devoted to him. My uncle knows that
"What are you trying to boast about, Ruth? Are you boasting about your integrity or your disdainfulness? Do you know if you boast like that, you're just gambling with your sons' lives? Bullshit, Ryan Poole! Since when have I gambled with my sons' lives? I admit that my sons are not living as comfortably as they did when they lived with the Poole family when they were with me. However, I've given them everything that I could give! No matter how willful and how unreasonable I am, I will never let my sons suffer no matter what! Ryan Poole, you've gone overboard!" Ruth actually cried because of what Ryan had said about her.When she heard what Ryan had said, she was actually reflecting on herself.Ryan was right. She was indeed a little self-centered. She never took the big picture into consideration, and she had always felt like she was making compromises for the greater good.However, Ryan said that she had mistreated her sons and had been gambling with their lives. That was an absolu
Ryan was so angry that he immediately shook off Ruth's hands."Also, the license of the daycare center that you had sent the children to was incomplete, but you just went with them because they are cheap! You were just thinking that they were cheap! Did you know why that center had dismissed two people? It was because those two people had priors for being hot-tempered in the local kindergarten. They more or less did not treat the children well. They were unable to find jobs in their hometowns! It's not to say that they had abused the children. The main thing was that their lives had never been smooth sailing, which led to them losing their temper and having mood swings very easily. Have you investigated their backgrounds when you handed your children to them? It's reasonable to say that a person's misfortune in his or her family and the mishaps in all aspects are not enough to prove anything. It would be fine as long as the person knew how to keep themselves in control and how to love
"Therefore, Hana exhausted all the ways to take care of my parents. To be honest, my parents didn't like Hana, at first. After all, this was her second marriage and she is older than me. However, after Hana had worked hard for so many years, they now love her more than they love me and my younger sister. That was what she had gotten in exchange for true affection. We're all a family. Nobody is more superior than the other, and nobody is more inferior than the other as well. The most important thing is to tolerate each other, get along with each other, and love and protect one another. Only that can maintain a good relationship in a family."Ruth looked at Zayn with tears glistening in her eyes. "Thank you, Zayn. I know that you're…lecturing me out of the kindness of your heart.""Ruth, you have to restrain that temper of yours," Sabrina advised her.Ruth bit her lips and hung her head.Seeing that she did not respond for a long time, Ryan said with disappointment, "Ruth, have you t
Sabrina's heart suddenly skipped a beat. "Yvonne. Where are you, Yvonne? Which number are you using to call me?"When Marcus, who was next to Sabrina, heard her calling Yvonne's name, he immediately got up, snatched the phone away from Sabrina's hand, and shouted at the phone, "Yvonne, where are you? Yvonne, I am your husband—"The call was disconnected from the other end of the line at that instant."Yvonne! Yvonne!" Marcus shouted.What he heard coming from the other end of the line was the busy tone that made him feel extremely hopeless.Sabrina looked at him while feeling heartbroken. "Marcus, you…shouldn't have been so impatient just now. How great of a chance it was for Yvonne to call me."Marcus burst out in tears. "It's all me. It's all my fault…."He sobbed. He was such an unyielding and tough man, but he was crying his heart out in front of everyone. Sabrina, Jane, Ruth, Hana, Minerva, and Isadora, who were all next to him, could not help but cry along with him as well
