Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Annalise sat in the car and looked up. Not long after Trevor arrived, someone suddenly fell to the ground not far away. Immediately after, someone shouted. “Quick, someone fainted.” “Who’s the doctor? Is there a doctor on the scene?” “Quick, spread out a little so the patient can get some air. Is there a doctor? Does anyone know first aid?” “Quick, press on the heart. Put your hands together.” “Like this?” “Come on. Push hard.” “I can’t do it anymore. Someone switch with me. Hurry.” Annalise also heard the commotion outside and frowned. One of Trevor’s men was worried that she would get out of the car, so he said, “Miss, there are many people at the scene. Someone will know first aid. You’re pregnant, so you’re not suitable to help.” Annalise nodded. “Yes, I know.” She was still worried about the person on the ground. She was far away and could not see what was happening, but she could tell that someone was being surrounded. She could hear someone saying, “Hold on. Hold on a little longer.” “Switch with me. I have no strength left. Phew.” “I’ll do it.” About two to three minutes later, cheers suddenly came from the crowd. “You’re awake. Everyone, she’s awake. Fantastic!” What followed was thunderous applause. Then, someone said, “Quick, send her to the hospital. Send her to the hospital immediately. The nearest central hospital is only a ten-minute drive. away. Who has the fastest car?” “Quick, there’s someone in the car over there.” Someone with sharp eyes looked in Annalise’s direction. Immediately after, someone helped the patient. over. Two people were carrying a middle-aged woman. The middle-aged woman was chubby and looked to be in her forties. Her complexion was somewhat terrible. The man who held her looked at Annalise. He said anxiously, “Hello. Can you help me send this patient to the hospital? It won’t take too long. It’s just ten minutes. Please, it was so hard for us to save her.” Someone immediately chimed in, “That’s right. Help her. Saving a life is a noble deed.” Annalise sized up the woman they were holding. Annalise felt that everything was too coincidental. She did not want to get into trouble, but what if the middle-aged woman were an actual patient? Just as she was about to speak, she heard a screeching sound. A car quickly pulled over. Trevor had arrived. As soon as he drove over, he heard the commotion. Someone was sick and had to be sent to the hospital urgently. Trevor looked at the woman who was being supported. He told the person holding her, “Get in the car.” “Huh?” The person holding the woman was a little confused. “Come on. Let’s go to the hospital.” Trevor shouted. Trevor had planned to come and pick up his sister, but when he saw someone was suffering from a sudden illness, he still decided to help them. His kind nature made it impossible for him to ignore someone’s life. He looked at his men and said, “Send my sister home.” “Alright,” the four of them replied. Trevor sent the patient to the hospital. On the rooftop… Julian asked Frederic, “You said you wanted to see me. Do you want me to listen to your tragic life stories?” Frederic continued, “I stopped attending school at 13 years old. My family was poor back then. I had four brothers and sisters. My brother’s grades were good. But he had surgery on his eyes when he was younger. I gave up my opportunity to study for him so he could leave the countryside and have a better future…” Afterward, he paused and continued, “I went to the city to work. But I was only a child, and no factories. would hire me. I could only go to the food stall and wash the dishes. The stall boss pitied me for being young and gave me a job. He also provided my food and accommodation. He said that if anyone asked, tell them I was his nephew…” Julian was annoyed. He interrupted Frederic, “If you have nothing else to say, I’ll leave.” “Julian, I’m really in a desperate situation now. I’m begging you. Can you help me? I don’t want to live anymore. Please give me back my company.” Frederic felt that he had stalled for long enough. Most importantly, he needed to pee badly. Julian looked at Frederic and said, “I have no problem returning your company to you. But when will you return the 16 million dollars worth of acquisition fees to me?” “How would I have the money to pay you back?” Frederic frowned. Julian said, “Alright. You don’t need to pay it back, then. I’ll hire you instead. You’ll continue to be the CEO of Superstar Media and be in charge of all of Superstar Media’s matters.” “Really?” “Yes,” Julian replied. Julian wanted to persuade Frederic to come down first. He would never give him another chance to get to the Parks Group building’s rooftop. “Okay,” Frederic said. He was about to come down. However, after sitting for so long, his body was stiff. He slipped. He almost peed his pants, and his face turned pale. The firefighters were so terrified that their hearts. were in their mouths. One of the firefighters said, “Don’t move. I’ll come and help you.” Frederic did not move. Two firefighters. immediately went over to help him down. As soon as Frederic got down, his body went limp. on the ground. Julian turned around and left. His executive assistant, Simon, immediately followed. Julian instructed him. “Find out how he got to the rooftop. Dismiss all those who failed to carry out their duty.” “Alright,” Simon immediately replied. Frederic caught up with them. “Mr. Parks. Mr. Parks.” Simon stopped him. “Mr. Parks is busy. Mr. Selleck, go back and rest well first. We’ll talk about other matters when you’re done resting.” “Alright. I understand,” Frederic replied. Downstairs… Seeing that Frederic had decided not to jump, many people heaved sighs of relief. But several people made sarcastic remarks. Annalise was relieved to see Frederic come down. After waiting a while, she saw Julian walking out of the Parks Group building. Annalise looked over, and their eyes met. The couple looked at each other and smiled. Julian got into the car, and Mr. Dewey drove them back to the villa. The four men Trevor had sent sat in a car and followed closely behind them. The drive home was uneventful. After returning to the villa, Julian told Annalise to rest and get up for dinner later. Trevor sent the middle-aged woman to the hospital. He left afterward. Overseas… In front of a swimming pool in a luxurious villa… Layla sat on a beach chair in a bikini. She was drinking red wine. Two beauticians were sorting out their beauty products. They came to give Layla a massage and skincare treatment. In the past, Layla was just an ordinary woman. But she had married into a wealthy family. She enjoyed a luxurious life. The phone rang. Layla looked at the caller ID and immediately put down her wine glass. She picked up the call. “How is it? Is it done? “Why did it fail? It’s such a good opportunity. The plan was perfect. “Didn’t you lure Julian away?” Before Layla left the country, she had hired people to kill Annalise’s child. She knew that Julian could fight. With Julian around, it would be difficult for her to succeed. Therefore, Layla bribed Julian and Annalise’s servants to monitor their whereabouts. If they went to the company, she would not stand a chance because they would be together. But she told the servant to inform her immediately if they were going someplace else. Layla then bribed Frederic of Superstar Media to lure Julian away by threatening to jump off the company building. At the same time, Layla informed the men she had hired that Annalise was going to the bridal boutique. Layla guessed that after Julian went to the company, there was a high chance that Annalise would try on the wedding dresses first. Therefore, her people could carry out her plan the bridal boutique.
