CHAPTER 486
In the hospital,Tedmond and Vivian stepped inside a ward. The ward was slightly dim, with two beds sitting across from each other, where Maxine and Max were lying. They both still had life support on their faces, and their eyes were closed.‘They still haven’t woken up yet,’ Tedmond thought.He hadn’t expected their accident to happen, and neither did he want them to die yet. He still needed them to wake up since they had to make up for what they had done and all the things they had caused.“They got hit pretty badly,” Vivian said, a look of disdain on her face as she stood in between both beds, her gaze scanning them one by one.With a blank look on his face, Tedmond nodded. “That’s right. It was a car accident.”Tedmond didn’t want to stay with the old lady either, and since he was done using her, he wanted to leave.“Come here, Tedmond,” Vivian said, making him meet her gaze. She had a slight smile on her face as she pointed at the machine connected to Max. “The machine seems to
CHAPTER 485
“Is there a need for you to go with your grandmother?” Evelyn asked, peering at Tedmond as he stepped into the car with Vivian.She didn’t want him to leave with Vivian. The old lady had promised him a house, and in Evelyn’s mind, the old woman might forget to transfer it if Tedmond wasn’t around. But now, since he was going with her, she would surely remember, because he wouldn’t let her forget.“It would be better for you to stay here. We were wrong for trying to chase you away. You should have stayed here since you came, so that you can come to the party with us,” Evelyn added.Tedmond shook his head. “Nope. There is no need for that. I want to go with Grandma.”He had no idea what she was scheming, but since he knew she was scheming, there was no way he was going with her, and he definitely wasn’t getting down from that car.‘She can keep trying,’ he thought.“Grandma has something to show me, and I don’t want to miss it, Mrs. Griffin,” he added, holding her gaze.Vivian nodded.
CHAPTER 484
Months later, Otis was excited, truly excited for the first time in months.His father had finally come back.And now Otis could finally introduce Mill to him properly.Now he could convince him to marry her, to let her stay, to make her officially the mother he always wanted.He couldn’t stop smiling.He ran down the stairs, through the long hallway, and then rushed toward the kitchen because Mill was always there at this hour.The comforting smell of fresh baking usually led him right to her.“Mill! Father is home! I’m going to—!”He didn’t finish.The smile on his face disappeared, and his feet froze.The world tilted, and the sudden, horrific reality of the scene before him slammed into his consciousness like a physical blow.There, on the cold stone floor, Mill was lying on her side, curled into a defensive ball.Her arms were wrapped tightly around her midsection, shielding her belly with desperate, heartbreaking urgency.And Evelyn, his aunt, was on top of her, hitting her over
CHAPTER 483
Otis Griffin – Otis’s historyOtis had always been an odd one growing up.He had been the child who never had a mother, and he had always hated that.And not only did he hate it, but he also had no explanation for why his mother was no longer there with him. Though all his cousins had mothers who took care of them, he had none, and he had always been alone during those times.His father had not been with him either. He was mostly left at home with his nanny or babysitters, and that had been the worst thing that had ever happened to him.To him, not having a mother was one of the worst things he experienced growing up. He had wished he could change it, but nothing happened. His father wasn’t getting remarried, nor was the man even dating anyone.Otis carried the fact that he was motherless like a brand.It wasn’t just a missing person; it was a gaping hole in his existence, a vulnerability that others, even children, sensed and exploited.He would often stand by the massive window of
CHAPTER 482
Tedmond was used to them talking without sense. However, it seemed like the more he stayed away from them, the more stupid they became, and that didn’t even surprise him.He had lived with them long enough to know they would always be stupid no matter the situation, and he knew better than to expect anything different.He also had no idea what he might do to them, and he cared even less about what they planned to do.All he wanted now was to do what he had come for and finally leave.“What do you mean by that?” Gerald demanded. “You should know Otis was just playing with you. He’s mad because you took all of his assets, and you brought that on yourself for still holding onto them without giving them back.”At the mention of the assets, the others all nodded in agreement.“That’s right!” Adeline said.Since she had been the one handling the documents that were supposed to be fake, she wanted to use this moment to prove she wasn’t the one who made them valid.“You should have handed th
CHAPTER 481
As soon as Otis dashed at Tedmond, Tedmond did not bother to move to the side or even think about what would happen if the knife hit him.Instead, his gaze stayed on Otis, as if daring him to do it.However, before Otis could even reach Tedmond, the others were already reacting. Gerald sprang to his feet and grabbed Otis by the arm, the same arm holding the knife, and dragged him back before he could get any closer.“What the hell do you think you are doing?” Gerald demanded, eyes wide in disbelief.He knew Otis hated Tedmond, but he had no idea Otis hated him so much that he would actually want to kill him, and in front of people, too.“Let go of me!” Otis snapped, trying to snatch his arm out of his father’s grip, but his arm wouldn’t budge.The others stared at Otis, disbelief on their faces.They all hated Tedmond, but none of them had thought of killing him in public like that, and neither had they ever considered ending his life in such a manner.“Shut up!” Gerald snapped, tired
