“Ms. Louise! You are such a meanie!” Sam stomped her feet.
Emmeline laughed. “Haha! Be patient and wait for Luca!”
Sam went downstairs while blushing.
Janie said, “Liz, have a seat.”
Lizbeth sat beside them. Three of them enjoyed the view of the garden while chit-chatting. They felt relaxed around each other. The garden was well organized by the gardener, Mateo.
Emmeline asked, “Liz, are you planning to have a baby soon?”
Lizbeth said, “Adrien has just started quitting smoking and drinking. The soonest will be in a month.”
I am not expecting that from Adrien. He is getting more reliable and responsible. Is this the power of love?”
Lizbeth smiled gently and said, I was shocked too. I left the Murphy family to avoid getting into a fight with Evelyn. I married him in a hurry. I am grateful that a playboy like him is becoming a better man for
“Adrien wasn’t born bad. He was just spoiled. A rich man like him is popular among women,” Emmeline said.
“That’s right,” Lizbeth sighed, “at least he isn’t another Edmond.”
Her phone suddenly rang; it was from Altney. What a coincidence! Is Daddy and Mummy looking for me? Lizbeth picked up the phone and said, “Hello?”
“I have fantastic news! Liz, Flynny is awake!” shouted Mrs. Murphy with uncontrolled joy.
After a brief moment of shock, Lizbeth got up from the car and asked, “Flynn is awake? How is he doing?”
Mrs. Murphy said tremblingly, “Flynny has gained consciousness; his overall state is good!”
“It was her who did it?” Lizbeth was terrified. Evelyn, who appeared kind and soft, was fake! She was a devil!
Mrs. Murphy whispered, ‘I need to know now. Is Erin the Evelyn we know? If she passed away, we would have nothing to fear If not, we have an enemy in the dark now! Liz, please be extra careful wherever you
“I will, mom” Lizbeth could sense her worry through the phone.
Mrs. Murphy sighed and continued, Tadvised Edmond to do the same. Instead of listening, he said lots of hurtful words to me
Lizbeth asked. “What did he say?”
He was upset with me. He accused me of disliking Erin, which forced her into a dead end. I felt uncomfortable thinking about what he said.”
“Mom, please ignore everything he said. Even if Erin isn’t the Evelyn we know, what she did to us was unforgivable! She made Edmond delusional and put the blame on us before she died. She is a devil!”
