Thomas was completely unaware of the chaos he had caused. After dropping Emma off atschool since she had recovered from her surgery, he left her in Beatrice's care, feeling completely at ease. Beatrice was patient and kind, and even her daughter adored her.Just as he left the school, his phone rang. It was a long-awaited call from Emily."Brother-in-law, where are you? If you have some time, could you come meet me? I need to talk to you!" Emily's voice came through the line, urgent and eager. Thomas raised an eyebrow at her words. In the past, Emily would never have said something like that. It seemed that the last incident had made quite an impression on her. He pondered for a moment but decided to head over to where Emily was. After all, she was his wife’s sister, and if she was in trouble, he couldn't just ignore it. When he arrived, he saw Emily running towards him, her face beaming with excitement. But he couldn't shake the feeling that something was off-like a weasel wishing a

When Nancy heard this, she couldn't help but curl her lips in disdain. Was Thomas really that foolish? Did he not understand the implications of her words?After a moment of thought, she continued, "If it's not going to work out, why don't you just quit your teaching job?

She found some truth in her sister's words, but for the sake of her family pride, she wouldn't dare let Thomas quit his job and have Gavin her sister's son-in-law help him find a job. That would be like trampling o

When Adessa saw the expression on Thomas's face, she instantly knew his answer. Her expression darkened, and she gritted her teeth as she said, "If you like that woman so much, then I'll ruin her!" Thomas narrowed his eyes, a chill radiating from him as he coldly warned, "I advise you not to get any funny ideas." Adessa smiled calmly. "Does that woman know about your family? Does she know your past?"Seeing Thomas fall silent, Adessa realized he hadn't told her anything about his life. With a hint of glee, she continued, "Then I'll just tell her everything. If she knew all of this, do you think she would still choose to be with you?" She quickly pulled out her phone and scrolled through her contacts until she found a number. It was Ava’s phone number, the one the investigator gave her earlier. She hadn't expected it to come in handy so soon."What are you planning to do?"Thomas watched her actions with a sinking feeling in his gut. Adessa smirked and said, "I'm here to tell her what
