The person most devastated by the news of Raynold Clark's death was of course his wife, Megan Clark. She had lost count of how many times she had fainted since hearing the news from police officers about her husband's death, which was caused by his own actions, committing suicide.Initially, Megan didn't believe that the cause of her husband's death was suicide, according to Megan, her husband was not a weak man who would just give up, let alone commit suicide.However, after police officers showed CCTV evidence in Raynold's cell, Megan couldn't say anything else. It was clear there that Raynold himself had hung the rope around his own neck.After going through a series of procedures, Raynold's body was finally taken to Clark's residence for burial.Raynold's body was buried right next to the grave of his eldest son, Brian.In the tomb where the ground was still wet, Megan cried loudly. She was wearing all black and her face looked years older because she kept crying.“Raynold, why di
Moments beforeIt didn't take long for Charles to get information about what had happened to Elena Clark recently.With his connections, Charles immediately connected with the Clark family's personal doctor, Doctor Jason, and received very surprising news. Elena clark is one month pregnant.As soon as he got the information, Charles rushed to convey it to his young master.Reid, who originally wore an indifferent expression, immediately looked up at Charles.“Who is the baby's father?” Reid asked in a serious tone.“According to additional information that Doctor Jason heard from Megan Clark, the identity of the baby's father is not yet known. Megan had consulted Doctor Jason about whether there was a possibility of doing a DNA test before the baby was born, and Doctor Jason said it was possible to do it when the pregnancy was over 10 weeks old, and as long as the baby's father had been found. The problem is, Elena mentions that it was the result of a one night stand with a strange ma
A month just passed by.During that month, Elena felt confused because of Reid's words about wanting to do a DNA test, she kept thinking about how to cancel the man's plans.Elena had thought about leaving this house, going to a place so far away that Reid and his men couldn't track her, but Elena knew she couldn't do that because it was impossible for Elena to leave her mother.Elena also thought about asking Doctor Brook for help to falsify the results of her DNA test later, but Elena didn't even know which hospital Reid would do the test at. Elena doesn't know whether Doctor Brook will also have access to the hospital Reid chooses later.Elena tried to think of another way, but it all ended in a dead end.Elena almost became stressed because she thought about all that, but fortunately her life while living at the Clark family residence began to improve since the arrival of the new chef's maid, Belinda Celeste.Belinda Celeste is a middle-aged woman in her late 40s. She has a ferti
And it turns out that there is no way for Elena to escape from this situation.Just after Reid said he would do a DNA test, several of Reid's bodyguards came."Come on," Reid said as he got up from the chair.Elena had no choice, in the end she followed Reid.Reid took her to a well-known hospital. One thing that is certain is, this is not the hospital where Doctor Brook works, so Elena had to immediately end her hopes of being able to ask Doctor Brook for help.And it seemed that Reid had arranged everything carefully, because when they arrived at the hospital there were officers waiting and guiding them straight to the examination room. There was also a doctor waiting there.The entire process of taking a DNA test felt fast, or maybe that was just Elena's feeling because she was too confused about what she was facing. Elena was completely unprepared for this situation.Elena had thought that because Reid never got a call from the first call, that meant the DNA test plan would not ta
Elena widened her eyes. Surprised by Reid's words. Marry? Reid married her? How could that possibly happen?! Impossible!That's why Elena said, "Don't talk nonsense. You can't possibly marry me."Reid raised an eyebrow. "Why can't I marry you?"“You still ask why? Of course because of my family's problems with you. My two brothers tried to kill you, and so did my father. All of that makes us automatically enemies," said Elena in a tone that couldn't stop thinking.“My enemies are your two brothers and your father, not you. Besides, the matter has passed, they have received punishment for their actions," replied Reid.Elena gasped, feeling hurt by Reid's words. Even though her two brothers and father were guilty, that didn't mean Elena was okay with hearing them being badmouthed. After all, they are her family."Whatever you want to say, what is certain is that my mother will not agree to your plan. She really hates you," said Elena as she glanced out the car window again.“I don't car
Elena immediately let go of her hand from Reid, especially after hearing the man's words.How could Elena intend to make the baby she was carrying not survive? It never once crossed her mind to harm the baby in her womb."Believe me, the person who cares most about this baby is me," said Elena fiercely.Reid narrowed his eyes, then suddenly said, "Yes, I do." Then Reid looked around, at the flowers that filled the greenhouse. “What are you here for? The party isn't here," Reid asked.“How did you get here? Are you following me again?” Elena asked back, not paying attention to Reid's question at all."I'm here because I also invested in this business," said Reid.Elena's cheeks turned red with embarrassment. Just now, she confidently accused Reid of following her, even though if she think about it, with Reid's position, it certainly makes sense that this man would be at every luxury party in this country. Reid will definitely be the guest of honor.But suddenly Reid said again, "But I
Reid clenched his jaw. The calm he had maintained for a long time was now in turmoil. He thought the devil in the Clark family was only Raynold and his two sons, but it turns out that Raynold's wife was also like a devil. She even dared to threaten Reid using her own future grandson!“I will never let you touch Elena and our baby. I will never let you hurt them. Come on, Elena, let's go," said Reid as he put his arm around Elena and pulled her to put her feet up.Elena, who was too shocked by her mother's words, just followed Reid's pull. Her mother's words not only shocked her, but also hurt her heart. How could her mother say something like that to Elena?“Elena, are you really going to leave me alone?”Elena immediately stopped when she heard what Megan said.“You know that I was forced to do this, right? This is the only thing I can do so that your brother can be released from prison immediately. Don't you feel sorry for your brother? Didn't you say you love him? Didn't you say yo
FLASHBACKA few months agoAfter serving a period of imprisonment for slander and defamation, Liam Cliffton was finally released from prison.Abigail picked up her only son with a smile. Likewise, Liam also smiled happily because he could finally breathe the air of freedom. countless times he complained about the uncomfortable life behind prison. But the torture was finally over and now he was free. He could return to the way he was before, or at least that was Liam's initial assumption. Liam did not think that his father's absence to pick him up from prison was about his father's attitude towards him, rejection.Liam only realized this when he arrived at the Cliffton residence."Where's dad, mom?" Liam asked. He glanced around the house he missed—a house that somehow seemed emptier; Where did the expensive urns and paintings go?“Oh, your father. Of course he is in the company. He's very busy," said Abigail smoothly.Liam still doesn't realize his mother's lies. In fact, if Liam want
As Charles Brown said to Anastasia Waverly, the reason Reid Arison didn't come to the office even though he had an important meeting was because he was taking care of his sick wife.After several days of being treated in hospital, the doctor allowed Elena to go home. Apart from experiencing a miscarriage, Elena suffered an injury to her left arm. Luckily her arm didn't break any bones, so her arm didn't need to be put in a cast.Even so, the doctor said that Elena's movements over the next two weeks will definitely be limited, so as much as possible someone should help Elena in carrying out daily activities that require movement of the left arm.Reid, who heard the doctor's words, immediately agreed. "There are many servants in our house who will definitely help her," said Reid.The doctor nodded, not doubting the number of servants in the arison residence which must be countless.Arriving at Arison's residence, Reid immediately gave instructions to several female servants to serve El
Charles Brown leaned back towards Anastasia Waverly, making the woman take a step back because she felt uncomfortable with their close proximity."You are wrong. You don't know who Mr. Arison really is, so everything you say is just your shallowly knowledge about Mr. Arison," said Charles in a sarcastic voice.For the first time, Charles openly shows that he hates Anastasia Waverly.Anastasia Waverly, who is used to receiving praise, certainly does not accept being called shallowly knowledgeable. She replied, “Then what is a real Reid Arison? Is he a person of great and noble character?” Anastasia Waverly again uses a dismissive tone.Charles Brown clenched his jaw. "There's no point in me telling you. From the start you've hated Mr. Arison, so whatever I say about Mr. Arison, you won't believe it," said Charles, then he straightened his body and got up to leave."Wait!" Anastasia Waverly exclaimed while chasing Charles Brown. Because she was in a hurry, Anastasia Waverly didn't pay a
Megan widened her eyes at her daughter's words. Cold sweat started to trickle down her temples.“W-what did you say? I conspired with Harry to harm you? Gosh, Elena, I'm your real mother, how could I do something like that! Just because now you are the wife of a rich Arison, you can be as impudent as you want to be with your mother!" Megan shouted angrily.But instead of feeling guilty about being scolded like that by her mother, Elena just chuckled softly. “Mom, after years of being your child, I know how you lie. You always cover it up by getting angry and shouting louder—like now.”Megan widened her eyes. Her hands were clenched in anger. Why did the situation turn out like this? Where's Elena, her daughter who is usually very easily influenced? Why is Elena suddenly so defiant like this? Ah, damn it, why didn't everything go according to her plans with Harry?Annoyed by feeling cornered, Megan again raised her hand to hit Elena, but this time, even without Reid's help, Elena herse
When Elena woke up, memories immediately flooded her.She remembered what happened before everything went dark. A car speeding behind her, a loud crash that shook her, and darkness that dragged her along.All these memories made Elena's body jolt and open her eyes.Elena was immediately greeted by pain all over her body. Elena wasn't even sure whether she could move her arm, whether it was because she was weak and didn't have the strength or something else, Elena wasn't sure. But one thing she was sure of, she felt her stomach was empty.“What happened to my baby?” Elena asked directly. She saw Reid's figure sitting in a chair next to her bed.Reid didn't respond with words. The man just shook his head slightly with an expression full of sorrow.Without needing to explain further, Elena already understood what he meant. Their baby did not survive.Elena immediately closed her eyes. Tears fell down her cheeks. Sobs escaped her lips, until then her body shook from the flood of thunderou
Hearing Harry's words made Megan smile. She also wants Reid destroyed. But one thought disturbed her."But don't you think that the child Elena is carrying could be our access to Arison's wealth? In other words, Elena is now pregnant with the future heir to the Arison family. Wouldn't it be more profitable for us to let the baby live?" said Megan. She is fed up with living “simplely” since her husband's death. She wants to return to life filled with wealth, even with much more wealth than before. And Megan thinks one of the quickest ways to get rich is to control Arison's property.But Harry just snorted.“You don't need to think about Arison's assets anymore, mom. I already know how to get a lot of money without any effort," said Harry with a meaningful smile.Megan widened her eyes with interest. "Really?""Of course," said Harry with a smug smile. “Now my only goal is to take revenge on Reid. I will make him suffer for the death of Brian and father," said Harry in a determined ton
Elena paced back and forth in front of Reid's study door, still considering whether she should come in or not.She had intended to apologize to Reid, but after hearing Charles' conversation in the kitchen, Elena felt even more guilty towards Reid. And that made her not dare to go in to meet the man, even though she had to go in, right?“Charles, what are you hanging around there for? Come in!" Reid's voice shouted from inside the room, making Elena jump in surprise.Reid must have seen the shadow of her feet on the door and thought she was his personal assistant.Because her whereabouts were already known—even though it was false—it made Elena feel like she had no choice to back out. Elena opened the door to Reid's study slowly.Reid seemed to be leaning back in his work chair with his eyes closed. Elena was sure Reid wasn't asleep yet because the man had just spoken."Get the files on the table," Reid ordered, still closing his eyes.Elena blinked. So Reid still thinks she is Charles
The next morningA head chef was seen serving special food to a long table in the dining room. There were so many kinds of dishes on the table that people who saw it would definitely think that there was a grand banquet in this house. Unfortunately no.Only one person will eat at the dining table, namely the head of the house, Reid Arison.Yes, this is the Arison residence. And the head chef on duty was none other than Belinda Caleste, the maid who was once Reid's spy who was stationed at Clark's residence.After being fired from the Clark residence by Elena, of course Belinda returned to the Arison residence, where she originally worked. In that place, Belinda's position was head chef.“The food is delicious, as usual. Thank you, Belinda," said Reid, who had just eaten the food Belinda made.Belinda smiled. Then the fertile woman said, “Should I call Mrs. Elena is here? I'm sure this food will taste better if eaten together.” Belinda felt sad about the various kinds of food that she
The news about Reid dropping the charges against Harry Clark also reached the ears of the Waverly family. John Waverly and his daughter, Anastasia Waverly, became furious when they heard this. Moreover, they knew that the murder planned by Brian and Harry was not only to harm Reid but also Amanda - even though at that time the plan failed because Amanda had hired people to pretend to be her and Reid. That automatically makes Harry an enemy of the Waverly family too.John and Anastasia could immediately guess why Reid wanted to free Harry, it must be because Reid had just married Elena, Raynold Clark's youngest daughter. Automatically Reid is now also part of the Clark family.“Dad, this can't be left like that. Reid could have freed that criminal just because he married into one of the Clark family!" Anastasia exclaimed with suppressed annoyance. Her white cheeks turned red.Amanda's twin sister was pacing back and forth in her father's study.Usually at times like this when his daug
The divorce between Daniel and Abigail happened quickly.As soon as Abigail found her son—who apparently chose to check in at a five-star hotel—Abigail returned to her house and apologized to Daniel.However, no matter how serious Abigail apologized, Daniel was unanimous in his decision. He wants a divorce."Besides, our relationship recently has not been good," said Daniel briefly.Abigail was stunned to hear that.After going through a series of processes in court, Daniel and Abigail are now officially divorced. The two of them are no longer husband and wife. Abigail moved to her parents' house again.Because since marrying Daniel, Abigail has never worked and only socializes with her friends, she really doesn't have any income, she also doesn't have any special abilities.Fortunately, Abigail's parents really love her and want to accommodate her, as well as accommodate Liam.Liam couldn't stay too long in a hotel—even if he wanted to—because the cost of staying at the hotel Liam ch
