“Fine. I’ll stuff you little rascals with foodwhen we get home.”Jonah smiled dotingly at his two siblings.
Meanwhile, Jeremy watched helplessly as the Taylor siblings vanished from the corridor and out of his sight. His world was flooded with loneliness, pain, and bitterness.
After leaving him, she was showered with love from others around her. On the contrary, he felt like a shell of himself after leaving her.
After leaving the hospital, Alyssa was plagued by worries about Newton’s health. She decided to reach out to Mandy later.
As a family of doctors, the Lovelaces were known for their excellent medical expertise in the nation. Therefore, Alyssa would like their help to find a solution to Newton’s chronic illness.
On their way home, Silas scrolled through Twitter and read out the amusing negative comments about Liana he came across, keeping Alyssa entertained.
“Hahaha!I’m surprised at how adorablethe annoying keyboard warriors seem today!I’d love to frame some of their comments!” Silas teared up from laughing at the myriad of creative hate comments.
Alyssa looked out of the window with pursed lips. She felt a rush of frustration when she recalled the golden lapel pin on
Jeremy that night.
She considered all her gifts for him as skeletons from her past¡ªitem s she’d rather destroy than see with him.
“Rosaline and Curtis are in Cyrus’ controlnow. Both are at the police station.” Jonah ran his course palm across her nape to offer comfort.
He continued, “He texted us that Cyrus admitted to his crimes right away, but Rosaline was tight-lipped. No matter how they interrogated her, she insisted she was solely responsible for the contract killing.” ¢Ù
“As cruel as Rosaline is, she has motherlyinstincts.”Alyssa waved her messy thoughts away and replied coldly, “Liana is her only hope after Andrew Gardner fell sick and Dylan was jailed. As a mother, it only makes sense that she wants to protect her daughter.”
Not only did Alyssa bait Liana to hide her child, but she also tasked Sean to tail Rosaline to Mosgravia.
Rosaline, who lived a pampered and sheltered life, was unaware that she had been followed. That was how Sean easily found his way to the orphanage, where she hid Liana’s daughter.
In his words, the orphanage was a refugee camp for children. He was tortured by the sight of the dirty children who looked like beggars. If he could, he would take it out on Rosaline and Liana, the two heartless bitches.
Rosaline took her granddaughter from the orphanage but did not have the guts to kill the girl. So, she hired a poor and unknowing female farmhand to get the job done.
Thankfully, Sean saved the girl just in time and brought her to Solana City on Alyssa’s private jet. The child was currently well taken care of at the police station.
“How did Rosaline have the heart to killher granddaughter? That’s Liana’s flesh and blood.”Jonah’s eyes dimmed.
He added,”From this, you can tell that all her actions are the result of her careful calculation. There are no maternal instincts to speak of. Her only goal is to ensure that Liana marries well.”
Alyssa gave him a light nod. “That’s true.”
“Lyse, don’t you worry. Cyrus and I willmake sure that Rosaline spends the rest of her life behind bars. As for Cyrus … Heh heh …” Silas cracked his fingers with a sinister grin on his lips. For a moment, he resembled Axel.
“He’d be na ive to think that everything iscoming to an end after he’s jailed. His nightmar e has just started!”
…
The Walsh Family was plunged into disorder after the disastrous birthday party. Jeremy remained at Newton’s side in the hospital while his parents didn’t show up to visit. He assumed they were too busy dealing with the aftermath caused by Rosaline and Liana.
“Mr. Walsh, there’s a flood of negativeonline comments directed at you. Should we have the PR department handle it?”Xavier asked with concern.
Jeremy slumped against the corridor floor, looking pale and lifeless. His left le g was curled up while his right leg stretched out. He stared at the ceiling with his back against the wall. His neck formed a graceful arc.
Few would look like a work of art at the lowest point of their life.
“Aren’t they right? I think they are. Letthem be.” He closed his eyes and loosened his tie but still found it hard to breathe.”I deserve it.”
“Please don’t say so.”Feeling upset,
Xavier choked with emotions.”You’re lied to by Liana. You’re a victim as well.
A victim.
He furrowed his brows, feeling prickles of pain in his chest. The only victim he could think of was Alyssa Taylor.
As for himself, he was once a tool wielded by Liana to hurt Alyssa. It was true that Liana had hurt him, but he did the same to Alyssa, didn’t he?
“Mr. Jeremy!” Mrs. Rosie waddled toward Jeremy from the other end of the corridor with bags in her hands.
“Mrs. Rosie!” Jeremy shot up and helped her with the bags. “Why are you here?”
“I heard from Xavier that Mr. Walsh Senior was hospitalized, and you’d be staying the night. I brought you some toiletries, clothes, and supper. You should share the food with Xavier.”
Mrs. Rosie led Jeremy back to the seat and laid out the food containers.
“Mrs. Rosie, I’m not hungry. Xavier can have it.” He stared at the steam from the hot food. That was the first time he felt a touch of warmth in the long night.
Even if he managed to mentally pull himself together after all the chaos, he did not have much appetite.
“I-I’m not hungry as well! Mrs. Rosie, thanks for the offer!” Xavier shook his head. He wouldn’t want to eat before his boss did.
“Gobble it up, you all!” She felt sorry at the sight of Jeremy’s exhausted appearance and shoved a piece of cake into his mouth.
She added, “Are you really not going to eat because of that dark-hearted slut Liana Gardner? Man up, or you’ll lose my respect!”
Jeremy smiled bitterly and chewed on the food with much effort. “And who told you it was because of
Liana?”
“Why the long face, then? Oh, is this about Madam?” Mrs. Rosie winked wittily.
Jeremy’s cheeks reddened for some reason, either from choking on food or embarrassment. “Um… It’s because of Grandpa.”
“Maybe you should get a CT scan since you’re at the hospital. Let’s see if you’re eating your heart out now,
“she mocked him and gave him a side-eye.
Xavier silently gave Mrs. Rosie a thumbs up for bravely voicing out what had been on his mind, too.
“Mrs. Rosie.” Jeremy said coldly, “I was bad at reading characters. I was wrong to hurt Alyssa for Liana.
But I would divorce Alyssa even without Liana in the equation.
“I married Alyssa because of Grandpa’s orders. We would never stick together because there was no love between us at all. I have no regret *
“Three years, Mr. Jeremy! Madam loved you with all her heart for three years. That’s enough time to tame
“I do not love Alyssa Taylor.” Feeling his heart trembling, he said seriously with a dry throat. “Why should I waste her time if I don’t love her?”
Xavier was extremely disappointed and upset at Jeremy’s words. He believed that Jeremy must have had some feelings for Alyssa. Perhaps Jeremy found it hard to trust and open his heart to another due to the events he had suffered-childhood trauma, his mom’s suicide, and the betrayal of a benefactor in his teenage years.
“There’s nothing shameful about apologizing and repenting. Your happiness is more important than your ego! I’d do anything just to help you get back with Madam,” Mrs. Rosie lamented.
Jeremy frowned. “Mrs. Rosie…”
“M-Me too!” Xavier hurriedly raised a hand. “I’ll do anything just to get Madam back!”
Jeremy was baffled at Xavier’s declaration. He should have shipped off his unserious secretary!
“Oh, by the way,” Mrs. Rosie took out a recording pen and handed it to Jeremy. “A smart-looking young man came looking for me at home and gave me this. He wanted me to hand it to you.” 1
Jeremy took the pen. “And who was that man?”
“He introduced himself as Mr. Lynch.”
Holding his breath, Jeremy exchanged a look with Xavier before pressing the “Play” button.
Overnight, the Gardner family met its downfall while going viral online. Netizens joked that the family was a cautionary tale of law and order and should be given a lifetime achievement award for their “service”.
Rosaline Kirkman had been arrested and sentenced for contract killing and abetting murder, which did not warrant a death or life sentence, but she had to spend twenty years or more behind bars.
As she was 50 years old at the time of sentencing, she should expect to spend the rest of her life in prison.
At the same time, Andrew Gardner suffered a stroke from the shock and was sent to the ICU. As a result of delayed treatment due to the chaos at the event, he fell into a deep coma from hypoxia and brain tissue damage.
“Ms. Gardner, please be mentally prepared. There is a high possibility that your father might fall into a vegetative state.”
