"Monica, since you're back now, isn't it about time you tell us who exactly Amelia's father is? Didn't you say that you've already found him, and you're getting married to him soon?"When Maria suddenly asked that question, everyone at the table instantly fell silent. Amelia glanced at Monica. Monica panicked a little, but then, she calmed down. "I'm sorry for not making it clear enough before. I am indeed getting married, but I'm not getting married to Lia's father. But … my future husband will treat Lia like his biological daughter. As for Lia's biological father, he is already married, and he has children too. Lia, if you still want to meet him, I can bring you to see him. But I don't want to have anything to do with him. After all, we're living our separate lives now."When Amelia heard Monica saying that, she felt her heart turning cold. By the looks of it, Monica still hadn't abandoned that plan!Amelia couldn't understand it. Was she not Monica's daughter? Why was Monica so

"Monica, you're … such a disappointment to me and your mom!"Peter looked at Monica with a disappointed expression. Then, he glanced at his wife, who was in the ward. He suddenly let out a sigh as he waved at Monica."Just leave. Don't stay here any longer. I'm worried that your mom might get worked up again when she sees you. It might worsen her health."Monica didn't care about the health of the person inside the ward. She only cared about whether her goals were achieved or not. She looked at Peter. "Dad, now that things have turned out like this, how much worse can it get? Why don't we just settle everything today?"Despite Peter's protests, Monica entered the ward."I know that every one of you is blaming me for what happened today, but I am sincerely doing this for Amelia's good. She is my daughter, so as her mother, why would I harm her? Everyone, look at this!"Monica produced a document from her bag. Amelia didn't want to humor her, but Monica brought the document to Am

Amelia felt a little bad because of what Liam said, but she also felt mistreated because of his tone."Yes, Grandma misunderstood you, but it wasn't a false accusation that you wanted to divorce me to marry another woman, right?"As for the divorce agreement, Amelia could only let Liam take the blame.Maria was in bad enough shape, so Amelia was even more hesitant to let Maria know about her getting kidnapped. Amelia feared that in her current condition, Maria wouldn't be able to withstand that."Amelia, I've already told you so many times that I don't want a divorce. You were the one who kept trying to divorce me. Think about it. Haven't I done enough to beg you to stay?"Amelia pursed her lips. "So what?""'So what?' 'So what?' Hah, Amelia, no one in this world knows how to hurt me better than you do. No one is as cruel and heartless as you!"With that, Liam turned around and left. He was furious, but he also felt helpless. He truly couldn't do anything about it. She knew ve

Peter sighed when he heard that. "Fate is cruel indeed! Your grandmother believed Liam back then because she saw him constantly thinking of his late crush. She was sure that if you got married to a loyal man like him, he would take responsibility and take good care of you. You and Liam seemed to get along well, so your grandmother and I were relieved to see that. But unexpectedly, you two still ended up like this. It has been so many years, but he's still thinking of that woman. Well, then, divorce doesn't sound like a bad idea. It's not too bad to just return to your initial states."Peter wasn't too emotional about it, and Amelia was relieved to see that. Still …"But what about the divorce agreement? According to what I know of Liam, he wouldn't have let you leave the marriage with nothing to your name. Did that woman force him to do it?"The next moment, Peter's question caused Amelia to tense up again."Why did you ask that?""After you got married to him, even though we we

"Grandma!"Amelia hastily rushed home. At that moment, Liam couldn't be bothered to keep his promise to Amelia anymore as he followed suit.Before they arrived, they were halfway there when they encountered Christopher heading toward them. Christopher was carrying Maria on his back while Peter supported Maria by her side.Even David limped beside them."I'll get the car!"By the looks of it, they were taking Maria to the hospital. Amelia hastily nodded. "Hurry!"She spoke anxiously, but while she was speaking, Liam had already dashed off."Amelia, I saw Liam just now. Is he getting the car?" Christopher hastily asked.Amelia nodded. But before Amelia could say anything, Maria waved her hands frantically, saying emotionally, "N-No!""Grandma, this is not the time. Just forget about those things. You have to get to the hospital first. If you feel bad about it, I'll give him money later. We'll just pretend that we're renting his car!"Amelia was so anxious that she was teari
