Elizabeth gazed at Kelly; she couldn't believe he would dare speak now. He dare mention 8,000 dollars when someone she was trying to mock just spent 50,000 dollars to fix an old car, yet the fool opened his mouth to utter nonsense. He should have kept his mouth shut and waited for them to leave before he opened his mouth. Penelope, at that moment, just smiled. She saw the look on Elizabeth's face; she looked embarrassed.“Elizabeth, which of the cars do you use? I'm curious to know.”Elizabeth didn't say anything; she knew the amount Penelope's son-in-law just spent can buy her car. Its embarrassment would be too much if she stayed any longer.“I almost forgot. I have something very important to attend to soon. We will continue our discussion next time.” Penelope started laughing immediately.“Don't tell me you want to escape; don't run away from my question.” Elizabeth quickly walked out of the VIP office, and Kelly followed her from behind. The embarrassment was too much for her to
Kelly's eyes widen. He knows Elizabeth is capable of something like that. He knows that with this situation on the ground, people might not believe him even if he tells them he's innocent, and he is her son-in-law. She will just use the excuse of the divorce to make up a story. Kelly quickly came down from the car. Elizabeth gazed at him with dead eyes.“I'm going home right now to pack out your belongings. Make sure you come pick them up yourself today. If not, once the refuse dump company comes, I will be giving them your belongings to dispose of.” Elizabeth drove off. Kelly was confused at that point. He doesn't know what to do anymore. Everything he has ever worked for has been invested in his wife and her mother-in-law. Now he has nothing anymore. His head was full of thoughts. He knows he's finished, but he is not going to give up without a fight, if they want him they must compensate him for all he did. He has been playing a fool for years now, but at this moment it is time t
Hazel was speechless at that moment; she couldn't say anything. Marcus continued“I pleaded with him to saying my wife was a top fan of Alexis Silver, and surprisingly, he just gave the tickets to me.” Hazel's heartbeat could be heard; she always wanted to attend Alexis Silver's shows, but there was no spare money to buy a ticket, and besides, tickets always get finished before the day runs out. She was overjoyed; this was the best gift Marcus had given her this year.“Thank you, Marcus. I truly appreciate this gift, but first, let's go visit Benjamin before I thank you properly.” Marcus smiled upon hearing what Hazel just said.“Are we doing it tonight?”Hazel nods. Marcus just smiled, knowing he was getting something in return for his hard work. Hazel booked a taxi not long after it arrived. Marcus and Hazel entered, and they arrived at the hospital. Everybody wanted to come see Benjamin's progress. Marcus and Hazel enter the room, only to be greeted by Dylan and the guys from
Everybody frowns, looking at Pearl. How can Pearl say those crazy words? She is the captain when it comes to taunting weak people, especially Marcus. Why this sudden change? Benjamin was beaming watching Pearl siding with Marcus, although he was still waiting to hear what Pearl's response would be when Dylan asked if her boyfriend had broken up with her. The reason he never confessed to Pearl was because he knew they were not of the same class; he didn't know what her response would be if he said those words. It would hurt him if Pearl insulted him because of that, and he would lose her respect. However, his feelings for Pearl were still on his mind because she bullied Marcus; he never liked that. Some people thought he was scared to tell her how he felt, but all these reasons have been pushing him away, and his love for her never died. Dylan roars, Pearl must've forgotten his family; she thinks he's of the same class as Marcus, the street beggar. The Lawrence family is among the
Wesley stood up immediately from where he was seated; he couldn't believe what he just heard.“What did you just say? How is that even possible? You must be kidding, right? That isn't a good way to demand more money from me.” Wesley is angry at that moment. It seems he's saying all of this just to demand more money from him. No school in Summerville would dare admit that little bastard, not with those records of hers.“Don't mess with me if you want more money. You could have asked. Don't ever use this trick again.” The man couldn't believe Wesley's words; it seemed he didn't believe him.“Sir, I don't want more from you; what I just told you is the truth: the little girl started school yesterday.” Wesley's eyes turn red at that moment. It seems the man is damn serious. How did it happen? Which school would dare admit that bastard girl?“Which of the schools admitted her? Something tells me you're lying to me.” Wesley knows that little bastard can't get admitted to any school; her r
Hazel's eyes widened slightly as she realized she had completely forgotten her parents' wedding anniversary was today. She couldn't believe her mother's words because she knew they had never celebrated their wedding anniversary before, so why are they deciding to celebrate it this year? However, she knows her mother has enough money now, so that must be the reason she decided to celebrate their anniversary this year. Marcus, congratulated Penelope.“congratulations Mother, I pray we celebrate more anniversaries with you and Father.” Penelope managed to nod. The bastard doesn't know what is coming his way today. Marcus would have booked a better restaurant for them to host this anniversary and make it special for them; however, he would have to explain how he did it, and he has been lying a lot recently. However, he's going to buy them gifts that they would like. After breaking the news to them, Penelope walked away, and Marcus walked closer to Hazel. He saw the look on her face.“D
The security guard's hands covered his face. He couldn't believe the thief would dare lay his hands on him. He should be on his knees, yet the fool dared slap him in the face. He must be dealt with he gazes at Marcus with dead eyes.“How dare you? You dare lay your hand on me, you piece of–” He couldn't finish his words. Marcus slapped him again.“Slap!!!” Some of the people who saw what happened outside and followed them inside the store covered their mouths in shock. They couldn't believe the thief still had the guts to slap the security guard, who does he think he's; however, they couldn't say anything, fearing Marcus might hear them. They don't want the madman to lay his hands on them. The security guard became more angry at this point. He's going to teach Marcus some lessons before handing him over to the police. However, Marcus has another plan for him. He was trying to explain himself to the security guard, yet he refused to listen, and he dared insult his little princess wh
Marcus turned to face Ivy. The look on her face tells him she is scared. She was very joyful when they arrived here, but this damn security guard and the sale attendance made her scared. Marcus faked a smile.“My little princess, don't worry, everything is okay. We will soon be done here.” Marcus kissed Ivy on the forehead and held her hands to make her calm down.But Ivy started crying. Marcus Heart was bitter at that moment; seeing Ivy cry just made him even more angry. He quickly bent and faced Ivy.“Why are you crying, my little princess?” Ivy pointed to the drinks on the floor. Marcus looked at the drinks properly. His eyes opened a little when he saw that they were the same drinks he had in mind for David. They were one of his favorite drinks; he loved them so much. How did Ivy manage to know?“Ivy, where you bring these drinks to me so we can buy them for Grandfather?” Ivy nods. “I saw it in his room; he told me it was one of his best drinks; he only has one bottle remainin
