Due to the ident, Emma hemorrhaged and the baby was born prematurely.


    But Mrs. Thompson Sr. protected Carol and her children, threatening to kill herself if anyone touched them.


    In the end, Frank only managed to send Vanessa abroad, and the matter was dropped.


    Although Vanessa was sent away, she lived a life of luxury. Frank had given his shares and assets to Bet, but the money he gave his mother for her expenses was still used to support Carol and her children.


    When Eden started his own business, wasn''t it Frank who provided the startup capital and a logisticspany worth over a billion?


    Emma should never have been so soft. She should have divorced Frank right then and there, after she was pushed and nearly bled to death.


    ...


    Emma stood up from the sofa, walked to the nightstand, and bent down to open the bottom drawer.


    Tucked away inside was a divorce agreement.


    Emma took it out and walked to the door.


    She pulled the door open.


    Frank was standing right outside, holding a bowl of warm soup. “Emma, I had the housekeeper make you some soup, you should have it while it''s warm..."


    Before Frank could finish, the divorce papers pped him across the face, sending the bowl of soup crashing to the floor. It sttered everywhere.


    "Frank, let''s get a divorce. You can leave with nothing and go live with your mother and your illegitimate children."


    Frank frowned, looking at the divorce agreement lying on the floor, stained with soup.


    “Emma, I''m not divorcing you. Don''t worry, if Eden is really involved in Bet''s ident this time, I won''t spare him.”


    "How will you hot spare him? By sending him abroad to live a life of luxury?" Emma sneered. "Frank, you once promised 1 would never see Vanessa again, but isn''t she back now, parading her husband and chifa in front of my face?"


    Frank said, “Don''t worry, I''ll force Vanessa and her family to leave the country immediately."


    "Come talk to me when you''ve actually done it,” Emma said before mming the door in his face.


    Two weekster, Bet''s medical report showed that all his vitals were normal. However, the investigation into his ident had stalled. To avoid wasting hospital resources, Bet was secretly discharged and returned to Cherry Bay to continue his recovery.


    While the world thought Bet was still in aa in the ICU, he was happily


    walking his dog in the neighborhood with Yvonne.


    To avoid being recognized, both Bet and Yvonne wore face masks.


    Bullet ran around on the newly greenwn while Yvonne and Bet sat on a nearby bench, soaking up the sun.


    Yvonne''s beautiful, almond-shaped eyes narrowed slightly as she turned to look at him.


    "Why are you staring at me? Do I look weird in a mask?" Bet asked.


    "No, you still look very handsome," Yvonne said, tilting her chin up, her lovely eyes crinkling with a smile. “We both have m???s on it makes us look even more like a couple."


    With that, she leaned in and kissed him through their masks.


    "Stop fooling around,” Bet said, ruffling her hair. His gaze and touch were fond and gentle.


    Bullet frolicked on thewn until his owner called him, at which point he trotted back to her side.


    "Time to go home, Bullet," Yvonne said, patting hisrge head. She clipped on his leash and started walking back toward their apartment.
