Liberty took the letter. The lawyer was here on behalf of Jessica. The cases that Jessica was involved in still had not reached their verdicts, hence she was not allowed to see anyone. Even if she was sentenced, Liberty was not her family or her guardian, so she could not visit either. Therefore, she wrote a letter to Liberty and asked her lawyer to deliver it. Jessica had given up. She never wanted a lawyer but her family somehow got her one. She thought it was probably because of the house that Hank inherited. Hank added her name to the deed, so she owned half of the house. Her family got her a lawyer maybe because they wanted to help her get a lighter sentence, or maybe they were after her assets. She and Hank had no children for as long as they were married. When she finally got pregnant, she tripped and lost the baby. Even without the baby, Jessica had lost hope for the future. She could not see the light in her dark life. In the end, she picked up the knife and
The relationship destroyed both Jessica and Hank, while Liberty was the winner in this conflict because she got the courage to divorce Hank. With that, Liberty was reborn. “I’m sorry, Liberty.” Jessica repeatedly wrote her apology in the letter. She owed Liberty the apology and even though it was late, she apologized in the end. Liberty went silent for a while after she finished reading the letter. She then looked at the lawyer and said, “Hank is still in the ICU, his life is still hanging on a thread, so it’s not the end for Jessica yet.” She also provided her answer on what Jessica did to her in the past. “I accept her apology but I can never forgive her, at least not now. It’s not just because she intervened and sabotaged my marriage, she hurt my son, Sonny. I can’t simply forgive a person who wants me and my son dead. “If she has the chance to make it right, I hope she does it behind bars. When she’s released in the future, I hope she can contribute to society. Consider
“I don’t want to go back. I have to face my mother and whenever I see her feeling guilty, it makes me feel terrible,” Duncan said. What he said was true. He did not blame his mother because he was the one who drove too fast, hence causing his crash. However, his mother took the blame and believed it was her fault that he was wheelchaired. When he found out about how severe his condition was, he could not accept it either and his hot temper exacerbated the situation with his mother. “I understand Mrs. Lewis’s guilt. I mean, not even your mother, even people who are not involved will feel guilty just by the look of it. You should talk to your mother, maybe things will get better.” He broke it, so he should fix it himself. It was a matter between the mother and son, no outsiders had the right to intervene. “I’ve said I don’t blame her, but she still acts the same way. I see her drowned in her guilt, crying in silence and it irritates me. That’s why I want to be out here, I w
Hayden put her phone down and started to wonder what brought Kevin to the company. However, the thought was discarded soon enough as she continued her meeting. Kevin drove up to the checkpoint and honked. The security guard spotted him and opened the automatic barrier for him to drive inside. Minutes later, Kevin carried a huge bouquet of red roses into the lobby. Even though it was during working hours, there were company employees walking around. When they spotted Kevin with the roses, they were surprised and captivated. “Mr. York, good afternoon,” the receptionists greeted him politely. They were curious why Kevin came to their company with a bouquet of roses. Who were the roses for? Someone in the company captured the heart of Kevin York? Who was the lucky girl? Even though the Yorks’ homebase was Wiltspoon, they were billionaires and it was the lifelong wish of many young women to be able to marry someone from the Yorks. One of the receptionists fantasized abou
Hayden’s expression turned gloomy. She looked at Kevin and said coldly, “Mr. York, what is the meaning of this?” The present he prepared for her was a bouquet of roses? It was not that she did not like roses, but what were they for? If she was sick and hospitalized, it would be appropriate if Kevin sent her flowers, but she was fine and healthy. If Kevin gave her flowers all of a sudden, it would make others think that he was confessing his love for her. What the hell? She was still a man! Why would Kevin confess to her? Kevin should not be gay either! Why? “It doesn’t mean anything. I passed by the florist earlier and saw these beautiful roses. I got them but I don’t know who to give them to. Since I know you best in this city, I thought I’d give you the roses.” If Hayden’s gaze could kill, Kevin would no longer have an intact body, but he was not afraid. He acted like a gentleman and explained with a bright smile. However, no one believed his explanation. Hayd
“So it’s not just me?” “Mr. Hayden captivated the hearts of countless girls. Who would have thought he would capture the heart of Mr. York as well.” “Maybe Mr. York is already gay, that’s why he’s been single. Now that he has seen Mr. Hayden’s beautiful face, he realized he had fallen for him. That’s why he made a move and openly chased after Mr. Hayden.” “You guys don’t follow the gossip in Wiltspoon, so you have no idea. Old Mrs. York actually selected a wife candidate for Kevin York, but he didn’t like it, that’s why he refused to date the selected candidate.” Everyone looked at the person who revealed the news. The person looked proud and delighted. “I always follow the gossip in Wiltspoon, that’s why I know. The third young master of Yorks is here because of a business trip, but Fortress Hotel has grown so famous in Jensburg that not even our company can do anything about it. “So there is no reason for him to be here for business-related matters. He’s actually trying t
As Hayden suppressed her anger, she said coldly, “Thank you for your kindness, Mr. York. I don’t really have a favorite but if I do, I can buy it myself. I don’t need you to buy it for me.” “What you buy is yours, what I give is my feelings. Mr. Hayden, please take the flowers I got you. Don’t let my feelings go to waste. This is my first time giving flowers to someone.” Hayden’s expression turned grim. “Mr. York, this is also the first time I received flowers from a man.” “Why can’t a man give another man flowers? Men are humans as well, some men like flowers.” Hayden could not win against Kevin in the argument. Kevin was extremely shameless. “Mr. York, I have things to do. Please leave,” Hayden requested with a frosty tone. “I won't affect your work. I’ll be quiet. When you are done with work, let’s go for dinner.” Hayden was speechless. “Mr. York, if you insist on staying, I will have to call security.” Kevin looked at her with a grin. He did not take her words ser
Hayden did not want the shameless man to turn around halfway. The secretary respectfully invited Kevin out. Kevin smiled at Hayden as he brought the bouquet out. When he followed the secretary out, Hayden heard him asking the secretary, “Are the flowers not beautiful enough? Why doesn’t Mr. Hayden accept my flowers?” Hayden slammed the door shut. She returned to her seat and then her other phone rang. It was from her brother. “Hayden! I missed the great show today! I should have come back for the meeting! D*mn it!” Hugh received the news of Kevin giving flowers to her sister in front of the executives. Someone close to him informed him right away. Hayden’s expression turned gloomy. She said coldly, “Hugh, one more word and I will cut your tongue off and feed it to the dog.” “Alright, alright. Don’t be mad, brother. With that face of yours, men and women will fall for you. Even my friends don’t dare to spend too much time with you because they are afraid they would f
