After saying that, Lance made a phone call in front of Yvette and instructed, "Investigate the movents of Charlie Raison, who works in IA Investnt Bank, in the past year. Before that, find two people to follow him, and don’t let him leave New York."
Yvette was a little flustered when she heard this.
Because it was a lie. It was impossible for Lance to find anything. That was why she would recklessly provoke him to achieve the goal of divorce.
After all, it was impossible for an arrogant man like Lance to accept a child that was not related to him.
But she did not expect that he would not torture her, but soone else.
"Lance, this child has nothing to do with him. Can you stop ssing up with an innocent man?"
However, Lance did not take any of her explanations and directly left.
Yvette was completely panicked. She did not dare to imagine what Lance would do out of anger.
After leaving Serenity Villa, Lance went straight to the bar.
By then, Marvin had already prepared the wine. Lance picked up one glass of wine after another and drank three glasses of wine.
After that, he asked, "Where is the dicine?"
Marvin threw out a box. Lance did not have any scruples and directly took the dicine with the wine.
Seeing this, Marvin frowned. "It’s a miracle that you can still live after taking dicine like this."
Lance asked, "Why is there just one box?"
Marvin raised his eyebrows. "Do you think that I produced the dicine? I do have more, but you have to take the dicine reasonably. dicine can be poisonous. Although it can ease your anxiety, drug overdoses may also take your life."
Marvin was not bluffing. Lance was suffering from the severe depression years ago. When he had a seizure, it was quite scary. The normal treatnt in the country was completely useless to Lance.
Marvin managed to get him dicine from a professor abroad. The dicine was very useful for depression, but it would greatly impair one’s health.
Lance had never had a seizure again since his marriage. He had stopped taking dicine long ago. It was not a good sign that he took the dicine again.
Once there was a seizure after using the dicine, things would be worse. And in the long run, even the dicine couldn’t help.
Lance was frowning, and he didn’t say anything.
Marvin could only say, "Tell what happened. Haven’t you had any seizures for more than two years? Why did this suddenly happen?"
Lance was extrely irritated and loosened his tie.
"Is it related to Yvette?"
Marvin was shocked.
No matter how big the deal was, Lance could stay cold and rational while dealing with business. But when it ca to won, Lance repeatedly lost his composure.
However, not every woman could make Lance lose his composure.
Other than Yvette, Marvin had never seen Lance care so much about any woman.
Marvin waved his wine glass and advised, "I heard about that. Her grandmother passed away, and it was a big deal at that ti. You shouldn’t have stayed with Yazmin."
When Marvin ntioned her grandmother, Lance felt as if his heart had been stabbed. Lance pursed his thin lips and said, "I know."
He felt sorry about that.
But it was not a good reason for her to have an affair.
Marvin said, "It’s normal for Yvette to be mad. You gotta be patient with won. You have to control your emotions and comfort her. Moreover, when your body is weak, the symptoms will get worse with just a little stimulation. When you can’t listen to others, just shut up and don’t hurt others. Otherwise, when you have to sleep on the floor, you will be the one suffering."
Lance tightened his grip on the wine glass. The effect of the dicine flared up, and the intense depression that brought him great pain was finally mitigated.
He connected everything together and felt that sothing was wrong, so he asked, "Could there be a mistake with the examination report from the hospital?"
"Usually, no. But there can be mistakes. The machine can’t be 100% accurate."
"What about the date of pregnancy? Is it accurate?"
Marvin’s eyes lit up, and he beca interested. "Yvette is pregnant?"
Lance ignored him and only asked, "Will this be a mistake?"
"Normally, no. But the date can be inaccurate for a woman with an irregular nstrual cycle and a weak body."
Yvette was weak because she fell into the water when she was young.
Lance recalled the past.
If she was three months pregnant... They had always been close three months ago. They got on well and enjoyed their sex.
Moreover, he had great passion. They had sex every day except during her period.
Lance rembered clearly how she looked when she was in bed, how she moaned in a soft voice, and how she begged him.
It didn’t make sense that she would suddenly betray him while he was working abroad.
Moreover, on the first night he ca back, he imdiately verified that no one had entered the house. He was very clear about it.
It also reminded him that it was her safe period that day. They made love many tis without condoms.
Therefore, she probably said so on purpose.
Lance wondered, but why did she say that? Doesn’t she really love at all?
Just because I could not see her grandmother before she passed away?
The more he thought about it, the more his head hurt. He fell asleep in the bar.
"Yvette, you are not allowed to leave . You are not allowed to leave for any reason..." he murmured while sleeping.
Marvin sighed and asked Frankie to pick him up.
In the car, Lance asked Frankie to go to the hotel. Lance was afraid that he would do sothing irrational when he was drunk.
The next day.
Emilie had been on tenterhooks ever since she ca back from the mourning hall.
In addition, Rosa had been kicked quite badly and had been sent back by an ambulance. Now, she was still resting at ho.
They had told Tanya about this, but Tanya had been busy with his business every day, completely ignoring them.
Moreover, he was now relying on the Wolseley family, so he absolutely could not go against the Wolseley family for a woman.
Even his own daughter had to make way.
At this ti, Emilie muttered in front of her mother’s bed, "It has been a few days. Lance should have forgotten about this matter."
Rosa said, "He must be fine. I was kicked by him. He’s really rude. He even kicked his aunt!"
Emilie glanced at her mother. "If you had found a better man, would I have had to bow to others? It’s your fault. First, you married a gambler. Now you’re sticking to a playa. He’s already sixty and still took dicine to have sex."
"What are you talking about? Both of them are your fathers. Don’t talk nonsense." Rosa rolled her eyes at Emilie.
"My stepfather is almost the sa age as my grandfather. You have the nerve to ask to call him dad."
"Your mother is no longer young, so I could only find soone like this. So you have to find a good man. His background can’t be worse than the Hudson family. Did things go well with that guy at the last banquet? His family background is quite good. You should take the chance."
Emilie smiled and said, "Don’t worry. I got this. I lied to him about my hyn. He likes very much."
"Bang!"
The door was kicked open.
It was Emilie’s stepfather, Dylan Thackeray.
Emilie still had to rely on her stepfather, so she naturally had to be nice to him. She went forward and said with a smile, "Dad, look at Mom..."
"Bam, bam!"
His two loud slaps directly knocked Emilie to the ground, and a tooth fell out of her mouth.
Emilie covered her face and cried with a mouthful of blood, "Dad! Why did you hit ?"
Dylan said with a sinister smile, "I’ve shown you enough rcy. Pack up your things and get out of my house imdiately."
Seeing her daughter getting beaten up, Rosa, who was lying on the bed, was naturally unhappy. She did not pretend to be sick and jumped up from the bed, shouting, "Dylan, why did you hit my daughter when you ca back? You think you can ride over the Hudson family?"
It was Rosa’s usual trick. Every ti she quarreled with Dylan, she would use the Hudson family to threaten him.
Dylan’s business was not even a quarter of the Hudson family’s, and he even got so projects from the Hudson family.
But this ti, it did not work. Dylan, like a madman, directly raised his foot.
"Thud!"
He kicked Rosa to the wall.
She just recovered from the forr injury. Due to the kick, Rosa cried and howled.
Emilie saw that Dylan beca so ruthless and also cried, "Dad, what are you doing?"
Dylan spat on Emilie’s face, took out a stack of newspapers, and threw it on her face.
"Look at what you have done. I have lost all my face!"
