Not a hint of sorrow was evident on Gordon's face. "Molly's just a kid. I told you that her body is weak. We don't even know who her real family is. If you like her, fine. But don't take it seriously."Yale's fists tightened at that. "Don't forget about our deal, Dad. I can sacrifice myself for the family, but you guys should never meddle with my relationship with Molly."His eyes were red like that of a mad beast. He continued, "Everything I did all these years is for the family. "I'm just trying to protect the woman I love. I've done every filthy and disgusting deed that could ever possibly exist in this world. "Yet, this is what I get in return?"Noticing the unhinged tone in Yale's voice, Gordon softened his own voice in an attempt to soothe his mood. "Yes. And this is all because of Krystal. Don't make Molly's sacrifice go to nothing. "Take this chance to ask favors from the Heaths. Mr. Heath is very conscious of his reputation. He'll surely—""Enough!" Yale interr
Yale was close to a mental breakdown, and yet his parents kept provoking him.Once he and Olivia were the only ones in the room, he asked out of genuine concern, "Ms. Fordham, is Molly—""Don't worry, there's still hope. As long as she survives this, I have ways to make her recover. "But as you know, her body is already weak. It might be difficult for her to conceive again.""All I'm asking for is for her to stay alive. Nothing else matters."The telltale sincerity in his words showed how much he genuinely cared for Molly.At this point, Olivia couldn't help her burning curiosity anymore. "Ms. Molly has lost the baby. Why isn't her lover here?"Something unsettling fleeted in his eyes. "As I said, the pregnancy was an accident. She doesn't have a boyfriend."Since he wasn't willing to reveal much information, she read the room and stopped the topic."Relax, Mr. Yale. It might be cruel to say this, but it's nearly impossible for the baby to survive this event."She added, "
Olivia had witnessed how crazy and impulsive Krystal could be. As the wiser person and Tatiana's maid, Lisa should've talked Krystal out of it.That was why Olivia found Lisa strange. It was as if she had turned into a stranger.She withdrew her gaze from Lisa and approached Mason, reminding him, "Grandpa. There's still a baby in her belly. "Don't make her kneel. She's not even on week 12 yet. It's easy for a miscarriage to happen."No matter how evil Krystal was, the baby was innocent.It pained Olivia to recall how desperate Molly was to protect her baby. Having another innocent life sacrificed was the last thing Olivia wished for."I said, stop acting like you're the good guy!" Krystal shouted at her.Olivia helped Mason to his seat. The butler handed over a warm napkin for him to wipe his hands. Mason spoke up, "If you take pleasure in kneeling so much, be my guest. Once the baby is gone, we can take this to the court so you can throw as many antics you want in prison."
Mason set down his teacup. "Speak of the devil. Let him in."Yale was wearing the same outfit. The black coat managed to hide the blood stain with its color, but the red on his palms and his collar stood out.This time, the respectful and humble expression gave way to a cold one. Krystal ran toward him. "Yale, listen, I…"He had watched the surveillance footage while he was in the hospital. He usually monitored Molly's condition through those surveillance cameras.But now, it served as a tool that shed light on the truth.His world crumbled as he watched what Krystal did to Molly.His cold stare fixated on Krystal. The red-rimmed eyes carried a strong murderous intent.He didn't say a word, but she let go of his hand.Yale approached Mason to offer a greeting in a hoarse voice.Mason spoke up, "I've heard what happened to your sister. I'm sorry about the baby. "It was indeed Krystal's fault. You may do anything you want. I have no opinion about it."He revealed his stance
That wasn't a surprise to Olivia. Yale had said something similar back at the villa.She actually looked down upon him for the way he could stoop so low to climb the social ladder.However, the man who coveted power so much was willing to give up on everything for his family. He yearned for that power more than anyone else, but he relinquished it.It changed her impression of him. He was a true man.Krystal was dumbfounded by Yale's request. After all, everyone knew how much he "loved" and pursued her. Others said that she was the whole world to him. Hearing that coming from Yale was so shocking that her mind went blank."W—What did you say?" She bent over. Her hands grabbed him by the collar. "You're dumping me for that bitch?"Until now, she hadn't realized her mistake and kept addressing Molly so rudely.Hands grasping the carpet tightly, Yale reined in the urge to kill her. "We're not compatible, Ms. Heath.""You weren't like this when you tried to woo me."He glared a
No one else knew about Yale's ambitions as well as Mason did. He was even prepared to negotiate with the Kingstons.Even if he was going to sever ties with Krystal completely, this incident with Krystal still had to be settled. The Kingstons would not stand for this humiliation.But he didn't expect Yale to say something like that. He wondered if Yale was just putting on a show.In the past, Olivia would think the same. But it was different this time. She knew Yale meant what he said.He didn't want a future that was paid for by Molly's sacrifice. Tatiana wasn't able to keep up a friendly demeanor anymore. "Yale, please don't be rash. There's no need to resign over something like this! Really, that's too much."Mason stared at Yale intensely. "I need a reason."Yale had never felt as calm and unburdened as he did at that moment. "I'm tired of all the conflicts and competitions."His attitude was like that of a young man who had just entered the workforce. He didn't eve
Krystal attacked Molly in the bedroom. Why would anyone install cameras in their bedroom?That was the reason Lisa thought it would be fine for her to twist the facts in Krystal's favor. She didn't expect Yale to turn the tables on her!Mason called out. "Pull her away. I want to see what heinous acts she committed."Olivia witnessed the entire incident. Yale could've asked her to tell them what she saw.But Olivia was in an awkward position. She was also part of the Heath family now.Yale didn't put her on the spot because she had protected Molly at the most crucial moment. As the projector whirred to life, Krystal covered her eyes. She knew she was done for. The video clearly showed that she was about to hit Olivia and was stopped. Then, she went on to hit Molly.A slap wasn't enough. She grabbed Molly's head and slammed it against the wall.Molly's body went limp as she dropped from the wall. The blood on her forehead looked horrifying. The Heaths thought that was t
Everyone present knew about the grudges between Ethan and Yale. However, Olivia didn't restore her marriage with Ethan. It was clear that they were close.She definitely didn't show up to help Yale. She was the one person present that didn't have any reason to lie.She didn't speak ill of Krystal because of the grudge she had with her. Neither did she help her because Yale was Ethan's biggest rival.She didn't know what lies Krystal and Lisa fed Mason. Regardless, Molly shouldn't be the sacrifice for the benefit of these two families. Lisa was visibly displeased when she heard what Olivia said. But she was just a maid and an outsider, so she had no right to speak up in such a sensitive situation.Linus nodded. He had been too busy before and didn't have the time to ask Olivia. "So, that's what happened. No wonder you're here."Olivia had just returned from Carathia. She didn't even get to rest before getting involved in something like this. She felt a little speechless.Y
