As Jowley was following closely behind Alex, he was able to act immediately upon receiving his command. Just as Henry was about to turn onto a one-way street, Jowley's car suddenly zoomed past, blocking Henry's car's path. The action was abrupt, catching Henry off guard, and he crashed directly into Jowley's car. If anyone else had been in his shoes and encountered this situation, they would likely be hopping mad, and Henry was no exception. He quickly got out of his car, approached the two cars, and noticed the scratches on his car. This further infuriated Henry, and he banged forcefully on Jowley's car window, shouting:"You miserable fool! Are you insane? Why did you suddenly block my way? Is your mind functioning properly? Open the car door and come out here to talk to me!"The car collision and Henry's loud remarks attracted the attention of onlookers. However, Jowley, of course, kept his car window up and remained seated inside. Seeing this, Henry became even more cheesed off. He
But, of course, Henry was not quickly subdued or pressured. He constantly swerved out, causing the two cars to collide repeatedly. Henry's car rammed into Alex's, causing him to stagger in the outer lane, almost losing control and veering off. Alex gritted his teeth, gripping the steering wheel tightly, simultaneously keeping an eye on Henry's car and the road ahead.He honked, hoping Henry would come to his senses and stop the car. Couldn't he sense the danger of driving on this road? Did he want to clutch that paperwork to his chest and die?And just as Alex had those thoughts, Henry stubbornly refused to stop the car and accelerated even faster ahead. He crashed into the front of Alex's car, sending it careening into the outer lane, and then Henry sped past."Damn it, he's gone mad! What the hell does he want?" Alex punched the steering wheel, determined to make him stop before something worse happened.At that moment, he suddenly saw Henry heading straight toward the front of a sem
International General Hospital, Jack had been at the hospital taking care of Mrs. Locke for the past few days. He wasn't sure if she had forgiven him yet, and because of the car incident, he didn't dare to do anything that might upset her. His phone suddenly rang as he sat there peeling fruit for Mrs. Locke. He discreetly took it out and glanced at the screen, only to discover that the caller was Henry. Jack quickly stuffed the phone back into his pocket, unsure of what Henry wanted. Perhaps he had forgotten to inform Henry about his current situation, and now it wasn't convenient for Jack to take the call.At that moment, Jack tried to appear as calm as possible, then turned to Mrs. Locke and said, "Grandma, may I use the restroom?"Mrs. Locke, engrossed in browsing Ozlana's latest collection on her iPad, nodded absentmindedly. "Sure, go ahead."Once outside, Jack found a secluded corner to listen to the phone call. As he answered the call, he heard Henry's maniacal laughter."Ha ha
Germ, the butler, struggled to break free from Jack's control. He pushed Jack away and sneered at him, saying, "If you don't want others to hear or know about this, then do as we agreed. Otherwise, I'll tell Madam."Henry glared at Germ with frustration, thinking the older man was nothing but trouble, ruining his plans. However, Germ was now also a threat to Jack. Everything would end if he couldn't find a way to appease Germ. Jack couldn't bear to imagine Mrs. Locke's expression if she found out about this.Therefore, Jack lowered his voice and said, "Alright, I'll find a way to go home, sell the jewelry as agreed, and share the money with you. You don't have to worry too much, alright?"Jack patted Germ on the shoulder and intended to find an excuse to leave. But then, his wrist was caught again, just like before.Jack felt irritated, his eyebrows furrowing tightly. However, he suddenly seemed to realize something, and his eyebrows relaxed, returning his face to normal. He turned to
Alex looked at Phil through the usual questions and felt that the boy had nothing suspicious or unusual about him. Yes, he had been trying to test and probe Phil since earlier. But Phil seemed normal.So at this moment, Alex took Phil's hand and said, "You must have been terrified. It's all my fault. I have implicated you and your family, and I'm very sorry."He didn't intend to directly address the issue of Kimberlys or the fire, even though Phil had already mentioned it to Tom Holland, and Alex was aware of that. But in his opinion, Phil's health was still unstable, and he had a more pressing matter to resolve. So Alex decided to put this matter aside for now, as it was a trap he had set, and he didn't need to use it."So you rest, don't worry about anything else; I will visit you later," Alex said. He only visited Phil to check on him briefly because he suspected that a child who could say those things to Tom Holland must be extraordinary. At the same time, Alex wanted to see how P
"Perhaps the little boy wouldn't want to meet you," Mrs. Potts said, and both of them looked into the hospital room, where Phil was also looking outward. And at this moment, the boy suddenly opened his mouth, struggling to stand up from a distance so that only the shape of his mouth could be seen, but that seemed familiar to both Butler Germ and Mrs. Potts, and they could understand.Phil wanted to meet Butler Germ."Well, then, you go in," Mrs. Potts said. And Butler Germ didn't hesitate anymore, pushing the door and stepping in."You are indeed a good father," Phil said; although he was frail, with only machinery surrounding his body, the beeping sounds of the machinery seemed louder than his voice. But Butler Germ could still hear and understand. Mostly, they communicated through facial expressions and eye contact, which appeared to be very familiar between the father and son."I'm sorry, Phil, but Mrs. Locke had an incident at the same time, so... I couldn't leave," Butler Germ ap
After finishing his conversation with Phil, the butler, Germ, had to return to Mrs. Locke's sick room quickly. In Germ's mind, there were countless thoughts and calculations, and this matter was not easy.Right then, the door to Mrs. Locke's private room opened, and he heard voices coming from inside, starting with Mrs. Locke's high-pitched voice."You're quite something, aren't you? Your grandmother fell ill, and you only show up now. Where is your mother? And your father? Why haven't they come?"Germ could guess what was happening with just a short line of dialogue in their conversation. In truth, he didn't fully understand the situation with the Andrews family, but since Mrs. Locke had the accident, Mrs. Andrew and Mr. Andrew had yet to visit. Jessica had only just arrived today, so something unusual must have been happening within their family.At last, Germ finally stepped inside. Mrs. Locke, Jack, and Jessica were in the current VIP sick room.Upon seeing Germ enter, Jack glance
Hearing Jack's words, Jessica instinctively clenched her fists. She knew, yes, she knew that what Jack said was true and aligned with her own thoughts. But Jessica never wanted to face this truth. She considered herself unworthy, yes, it was fine like that, but she didn't care in the first place."If you're the same, what right do you have to judge others?" Jessica replied firmly to Jack's remarks. She might not dare to confront the truth that she and Alex had drifted apart, but she wouldn't avoid Jack anymore. She had been doing that for many years and made Alex do the same.She would protect him. She didn't want to see anyone bullying him anymore. Alex could now stand up and confront everything she used to fear. She was ready to face herself and no longer evade any flaws in her heart.Jack couldn't contain his anger after hearing Jessica mock him this way. He tightly gripped his coat, trying to suppress his anger. Jack reminded himself to prioritize important matters and not let ang
