Chapter 1203 Ambush at the Happy Snack Bar
Edmund had been putting off the conversation with his son for far too long, but there was no avoiding it now. The air in the bedroom was thick with tension. Bryce stood before him, his breathing ragged and shallow, eyes blazing with disbelief and rage.“Calm down, son,” Edmund urged quietly.“Calm down?” Bryce shouted, his voice cracking. “How dare you?”“If the situation were reversed,” Edmund said, keeping his tone steady, “you wouldn’t be reacting like this if it were just another woman, regardless of her age. What upsets you is that the woman in question is Tiffany.”Bryce’s jaw clenched. “That has nothing to do with it!”“It has everything to do with it,” Edmund countered. “You’ve had feelings for Tiffany for some time.”Bryce said nothing. His silence was confirmation enough. His eyes darted away, shame flickering across his face.“I’ll be honest,” Edmund continued, “I never imagined you saw her that way. You used to bring so many girls home, I thought you weren’t the relationsh
Chapter 1202 You Were Cruel to My Brother
Gustavo descended the grand staircase of the Alvares family home, his steps slow, the situation of the afternoon still heavy in the air. Linda sat on the sofa, calmer now, her eyes swollen from crying but comforted by the presence of those who loved her.“I really need to go,” Jacqueline said, standing up and adjusting her purse. “My mother doesn’t even know I went out. Good afternoon, Gustavo.”“Almost evening,” he replied with a gentle smile. “Are you all right, Jacque? Thank you for bringing Linda home.”“She wasn’t in any condition to come by herself.”“Jacque,” Linda murmured, her voice hoarse but sincere, “you’re a true friend.”Jacqueline smiled, her expression softening. “Count on you at my wedding, okay? Take care, everyone.”They said their goodbyes, and Jacqueline left, the front door closing behind her with a quiet thud. Gustavo turned to his younger sister, whose hands trembled in her lap.“Linda, you need to calm down,” he said softly.Paulina’s voice, however, carried t
Chapter 1201 Father and Son, Rival Hearts
Patricia arrived at the Borges House and exhaled deeply, trying to let go of the tension that still coiled inside her after facing Elaine.As she shut the door behind her, Vanda appeared on the staircase, her silk robe flowing softly with each step.“Patty, what happened?” Vanda asked, instantly reading her daughter’s tight expression. “How was it at the Sterling Mansion?”“It could have been perfect, Mother,” Patricia sighed.Vanda’s concern deepened. She stepped closer, lowering her voice. “Oh, no... She was there, wasn’t she?”Patricia’s jaw tightened. “Yes. She was there. And she refused to give in — not until Matt showed up.”Vanda wrapped her daughter in her arms, the scent of her perfume enveloping Patricia like a balm. “I’m so sorry, sweetheart. You’re in for a fierce battle.”“I don’t have to be afraid,” Patricia said, her voice trembling but resolute. “Not with Matt by my side.”“The bitch won’t make it easy, though,” Vanda muttered, pulling away. “I bet she whinnied loud en
Chapter 1200 No Mercy for Dr. Casanova
Nayla opened the door to her apartment and bent down to lift a few boxes stacked by the entrance. Elaine stumbled in behind her, dragging heavy suitcases that made her break into a sweat.“Put everything on the couch,” Nayla said kindly. “We’ll sort it all out later.”“Thank you,” Elaine panted, wiping her forehead. “God, I didn’t realize how much stuff I’d bought while I was married to Matt.”“With the Sterlings’ unlimited credit,” Nayla teased, “anything’s possible, my dear friend.”Elaine let out a tired laugh. “That’s true.”She went back to the door, hauling in two more suitcases overflowing with designer clothes and dresses. Nayla followed, carrying a couple of boxes filled with shoes and accessories.“I’m really sorry about the divorce,” Nayla said quietly.“It happened,” Elaine sighed. “But I fought to the very end.”“And now?”Elaine’s smile turned sharp, her tone full of mischief. “Now I don’t have to keep pretending to be a good girl. I’m free to plot my revenge, especially
Chapter 1199 The Father’s Girlfriend
Matthew took command of the chaos inside the Sterling Mansion. His patience had already been tested, and now it was time to bring order back to his home.“Patty,” he said gently, “are you sure you don’t want to move into the mansion today?”Patricia’s voice was soft but firm. “No, Matt. I don’t want to risk our love a second time. Maybe... when we’re married.”Elaine let out a bitter laugh. “How romantic. Excuse me while I go throw up.”Alice didn’t miss a beat. “We’ve wanted to throw up since the first day you set foot in this house.”Elaine’s eyes flashed. “Listen here, you wrinkled old—”“Enough!” Abner’s command sliced through the air like thunder.Elaine fell silent instantly, like a scolded lapdog.Matthew didn’t even bother hiding his irritation. “All right. Patty, when you feel the time is right, the master suite will be waiting for you.” He turned his gaze coldly toward Elaine. “As for you... you’ll be leaving this house now.”Elaine’s voice broke in desperation. “I don’t hav
Chapter 1198 We Can Arrange That
When Matthew stepped into the Sterling Mansion’s living room, the scene before him soured his mood instantly. He had come expecting calm, maybe even relief, but what he found instead was chaos.His soon-to-be ex-wife was shouting at the woman he truly loved.Abner still held Elaine by the arms, his patience clearly worn thin. “Can I let her go now?” he muttered.Matthew’s tone was sharp and with sarcasm. “If we were dealing with civilized people, Grandpa, you wouldn’t have to hold her in the first place.”With a disgusted snort, Abner released Elaine and brushed his hands against his suit jacket, as if shaking off something filthy.Elaine glared at them all, her expression hard with defiance. “Matt, your mistress didn’t even wait a day before showing up here,” she spat.Patricia, standing with quiet composure, spoke before Matthew could. “I was explaining to your grandparents that I won’t be moving in anytime soon.”“See, Elaine?” Matthew said, trying to hold his temper. “You could’ve
