Not long after, Lucas and Chloe also came to help.Since Auntie Tamsine's illness was gradually recovering, Lucas' personality had also undergone many changes. He was not as dull as before but slightly carefree and nonsensical.He punched Andrius as he walked up to him. "We made a pact to be single, but you secretly got hitched. How sneaky!"Andrius raised his eyebrows. "If you, Master Montgomery, wanted to get married, the line of women who'd want you would stretch from one end of Coast City to the other. You said it yourself, no?""Really? When did I spew such arrogant nonsense? Hahaha..." Lucas laughed.Then, he came to Byron and Rosalie's side. He immediately restrained himself and asked with concern, "Byron, Sister-in-law, is there anything I can do for you now?"He must be talking about Rosalie's mother.Rosalie shook her head. "Even the police haven't found a breakthrough yet, so there's no rush. Thank you for your concern, Lucas."However, Byron squinted his eyes and sh
When Mary presented the wedding dress, it made Rosalie a little envious.As for Chloe, her eyes were fixed on the dress. She could not help but be envious and jealous.Estie used a lot of velvet and smooth lines in this design. The gown had a light, airy feeling, like a white swan about to spread its wings and take off.There was also a sense of serenity.Mary's figure had always been great, and after putting on this wedding gown, she looked even more exquisite and majestic."It's so beautiful. Estie, you've done your godmother right!" Rosalie sincerely praised Estie, "My daughter is amazing!"That made Mary ask Rosalie to focus on her, the bride.Chloe was astonished to learn that this was designed by Estie, and she was lost for words."So, this wedding dress is exclusively unique in this world. Miss Wilson, this wedding dress suits you!" Chloe praised without hesitation.Mary felt great inside. A sweet smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.‘I don't want to take this o
Mary could not accept such a hefty gift.This was too much!Rosalie smiled casually. "Hurry up and sign it. Don't worry, I've advanced the commencement date, which is before your registration of marriage with Andrius. So, this is considered your pre-marital assets. In this way, you can join the Quirke family with your head held high, okay?"This was because Rosalie once had the same state of mind.Back then, when she married Byron for the first time, she often felt lowly and insignificant.Therefore, she gave her best friend these shares in order to relieve that pressure when facing her future in-laws.Furthermore, Mary was an important member of Petal Talk Group. The hospital she was in charge of was actually the hardest job.After some back and forth, Mary finally agreed and signed the agreement.When Camelia came in, she was in shock to hear her daughter mention the five-billion-dollar gift.She waved her hands quickly. "No way, absolutely not. Rosalie, we both owe you enou
The wedding was an exhausting affair for Andrius and Mary.The newlyweds complained endlessly. They never expected to be so tired.Fortunately, at three o'clock in the afternoon, Andrius pulled Mary in for a passionate kiss after exchanging rings. The wedding ceremony ended successfully."Wow, I never thought Andrius could be so sensual! I guess I was too reserved at the beginning!" Byron looked at his wife with an ambiguous smile.In Rosalie's eyes, she felt that the moment the couple hugged and kissed was so beautiful.She turned around and was pulled into her husband’s embrace, who could not help kissing her passionately too.Fortunately, they were watching the newlywed kiss from a spot backstage. There were not many people around.Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to still behave like lovesick teens considering they were a long-time married couple.When the banquet started, Byron and Rosalie originally planned to stay for the whole event. However, Detective Carter called
In a villa in the suburbs.Violet was fidgeting all over. She held the phone in her hand, checking the clock from time to time.Ethan was lying flat on the sofa. His arms were motionless because of the plaster casts. He was just like a disabled person.He hated Byron so much. ‘Of all the things that wretched man could do, he broke my arms. Now, I can't even play poker or go on my mobile phone.’Ethan murmured disapprovingly at his anxious mother. "Mom, aren't you worrying a little too much? You were unshakeable like a mountain while you were in the police station. Why are you so scared now that you've been released?""What do you know? I'm really worried. Rosalie's wretched mother left behind evidence of our crimes in her heirloom."Violet gave her son a vicious look.Ethan was slightly startled, but then said coldly, "What evidence? What does it have to do with me?! I don't remember whether I was involved or not. You poisoned Rosalie's mother yourself."Violet listened to how
Violet entertained the four private detectives with delicious food and drinks. Then, she went up to the second floor with Sophie for a detailed discussion.Sophie gritted her teeth angrily when she saw her brother in such a mess."Rosalie is going to drive us all to death, but don't forget, even rabbits bite when they're cornered. If we can't survive this, we'll put her three children up for slaughter!" Violet's eyes flickered with sinister coldness.From Violet's tone, Sophie could understand that her mother was worried."The best way now is to find a way to leave Coast City. Once we arrive at Crystal Wharf, we can consider going abroad," Sophie's original plan was to find a way to get Rosalie's mother's heirloom, but this was impossible from the way things were now."However, if you think about it, the police must be watching me now. It won't be that easy to leave Coast City," Violet looked worried.Sophie nodded. Suddenly, she thought of a plan, and a small smile appeared on t
"Mom, the vehicle that just got out must have been followed. With Byron's powerful influence in Coast City, we may even have difficulty leaving the villa now," Sophie stood by the window and gently opened the curtains with her fingers to reveal a little gap. She observed the surroundings.Outside was eerily quiet.Sophie expected many eyes to be surveilling them around the villa.First, she asked two private detectives to drive out with the goal of approaching the Jacobs old home. Her intention was not to find the heirloom but to disrupt Byron's arrangement.Immediately afterwards, she picked up her mobile phone and said, "You can go too!"In the courtyard of the villa, the lights of another car were turned on. This car belonged to Ethan, and there were two other private detectives sitting in it. The destination of their trip was the airport.Sophie believed that Byron had predicted the destination of the two cars and it was the focus of their surveillance.Sure enough, not long
In the Jacobs’ old family home, Detective Carter kept receiving calls from the bodyguards, and knew the movements of Violet's family like the palm of his hand."Sure enough, it was a bait and switch. On the surface, two cars set off; one came to us and the other was headed to the airport. In actual fact, they escaped from the basement in a taxi. However, they were indeed unable to escape."Detective Carter summarized his updates and reported to Byron and Rosalie.The detective was shocked. The bodyguards that Byron arranged for him had excellent professional skills and strong execution ability. These men were obviously carefully cultivated.Byron nodded calmly.He sighed secretly in his heart. Sophie reacted exactly the same way as Xander Lancer back then, she chose to escape by water.Indeed, travel transportation such as airplanes and high-speed rails have rigid, fixed schedules and are relatively easy to be discovered.Rosalie's mind was not present at all. As long as the hus
