“You can't just go back to Earth King Valley whenever you want.”

Jennie Skinner held the phone in her hand, her voice hoarse, “Please tell Master that according to the rules of the valley, I am w illing to accept any punishment.”

The person on the other end of the phone was stunned and then sighed, “Why are you doing this? In the beginning, you were willing to give up your status as the heir of Earth King Valley to stay with Marson forever, but now you are willing to abandon your socalled true love and return to Earth King Valley to live a hard life?”

Jennie glanced at the goldembossed wedding invitation on the corner of the table and a bitter feeling rose in her heart.

“Brother, I was wrong. Seven days, give me seven days and I will go back and apologize to the Master.”

Then she hung up the phone.

Marson came out of the bathroom, his hair dripping with water. Seeing Jennie holding her phone in a daze, he complained, “Can you be smarter? Emily's wedding is in seven days. If you look like this, people will think we are bullying you.”

We?

It took Jennie a long time to come back to her senses. The ‘we’ here referred to the two people on the wedding invitation, Marson Rush and Emily Waters.

Seeing her silence, Marson was very dissatisfied. He leaned casually on the sofa and his wet hair soaked the backrest.

“I've told you many times that Emily has a terminal illness. She just wants a wedding and it won't hinder your position as Mrs. Rush.”

Jennie felt a pain in her chest and she held onto the wall, barely able to stand.

All in all, that was the third request Marson had made for Emily.

The first time, he said that Emily was from the same hometown as him and that she had just graduated and could not rent a house, so he wanted her to live with him.

Jennie agreed.

The second time, he said that Emily got pregnant because of the careless choice of friends, so he asked Jennie to prescribe an abortion pill and also told her not to hurt Emily's body.

Abortion went against the teachings rule of Earth King Valley, so Jennie refused.

That day, Emily went to a black clinic to have an abortion and was left with a chronic disease.

That time he even complained, “Jennie, Emily got her terminal illness because she did it in the black clinic. You've hurt her to such an extent, so what if you give her a wedding?”

The pain in her heart gradually dissipated. Jennie stood up straight and stared at the man on the sofa.

“Sure.”

Marson raised his eyebrows and curled his thin lips, “You are really a good daughterinlaw of my Rush Family.”

Jennie lowered her eyes.

“Emily's parents had long since disowned her. On the wedding day, you held Emily's hand and handed her to me.”

When talking about Emily, Marson had a smile on his face.

“Emily is a good girl, kind and sensible and she knows how to give men face. You should learn this from Emily.”

As he spoke, Marson's phone lit up and several wedding dresses appeared on the screen.

He got up, walked into the bedroom, closed the door and started talking on the phone.

Through the glass, Jennie suddenly felt that his man was so strange. What was she obsessed with?

Why was she so obsessed that she wanted to go down the mountain with him even at the cost of her status as the heir of Earth King Valley?

Seven years ago, the old man of the Rush Family passed away. Marson and his uncles were fighting for power and they knocked Marson unconscious and threw him on the side of the road.

It was Jennie who came down the mountain to collect herbs and saved him and also helped him to come up with strategies to take over Rush’s.

Later, Marson knelt before her master and begged him to marry her.

The master refused and drove her out. Marson then knelt at the gate of Earth King Valley every day for seven days.

Finally, her heart softened and she made up her mind to give up everything and marry him.

And Marson did not let her down. Not only did he give her a grand wedding of the century, he also announced on the wedding day that he would transfer half of his shares to her.

“You are the head of my Rush Family. Everything I have belongs to her. What does a mere shareholding mean to you?”

These words once made her think that she was the happiest woman in the world.

But it was these words that made her fall into the abyss.

“Ms. Skinner, I'm sorry, this sentence is meant for me.”

Two months ago, Emily suddenly sent her that video of the wedding day and the camera angle was fixed on Marson.

In the video, when Marson said that, his eyes moved from her to the left and fell on the girl in a red dress.

That girl was Emily.

Not only that, Emily also told her a secret.

The child back then was Marson's. The two of them were intimate right under her nose, wearing her pajamas, using her cosmetics and while they were intimate, he mocked her for being a bumpkin.

“Marson, does this dress look good on me?”

“You look good. You have a good figure. You look good in anything you wear. Unlike Jennie, who has a skinny figure and looks like a piece of dirt… Bumpkin.”

“Ha ha ha ha."

In the video, the two of them rolled into a ball while laughing, knocking the tonic she had worked so hard to develop to the ground.

She did not believe it.

She waited with the video all night and finally Marson showed up at dawn.

“Emily said that the child was yours. Is that true?”

Marson did not feel guilty at all.

“Just a mistake when I was drunk.”

Jennie trembled all over, unable to believe that this was the man who knelt for seven days in order to marry her.

“Mistake because you were drunk? What about the countless other times? Marson, you betrayed me,” she roared at the top of her lungs.

Marson frowned and covered half of his ear, saying disdainfully, “Don't you Earth King Valley follow the system that men could have three wives and four concubines?

“Besides, you are too skinny to serve me, so why are you dissatisfied when she serves men for you?”

Like a bolt of thunder in a clear sky, Jennie heard a cracking sound, as if something broke.

Marson hac been heartbroken ever since he was plotted against by his uncles and aunts. When he was outside, he always tried to hold on.

She always cared deeply about him and gave him acupuncture and boiled medicine to regulate his body.

In order to completely cure his illness, he even secretly used the secret method of Earth King Valley using human blood as medicine.

That year when he was in good health, she fainted several times due to excessive bloodletting and her originally plump figure gradually became thin.

Now, he accused her of being skinny.

Jennie was silent for a long time, then returned to the kitchen and poured out the medicine that was prepared for his health.

That night, Jennie stayed awake all night, letting her tears wet her pillow.

She contacted her master constantly, begging him to allow her to return to the sect.

However, Marson no longer concealed it and openly prepared the wedding for Emily.

That day he even suggested that she attended the wedding and personally handed Emily to him.

Jennie's heart was finally broken.

She looked at the water stain on the sofa, turned around to find her prescription and added a few herbs to it.

Marson had a smile on his face and kept talking on the phone, while Jennie moved to draw a circle on the calendar in the living room.

The next morning, Jennie went to see her good friend, Amanda.

“Jennie, do you think Marson will honestly sign the divorce agreement?”

Amanda Valaz was a divorce lawyer and had fought many cases over the years. Big CEOs like Marson would rather keep a mistress than divorce easily for the sake of their reputation.

What was more, Jennie was a miracle doctor. With her around, Marson was not afraid of those shady tactics in the business world.

Jennie lowered his eyes, a wry smile on the corner of her lips. “It's okay, I’ll let him sign it.”

Amanda was silent for a long time and sighed. “Just draft the divorce agreement and send it to me. I'll take care of the rest.”

Amanda stopped persuading her, wrote down Jennie's request and sent her downstairs.

She happened to meet Marson going upstairs.

He looked around Jennie with an impatient look on his face and asked, “What are you doing here?”

Jennie did not expect to meet him there, so she casually explained, “I'm here to help Amanda recuperate.”

Marson nodded.

He was very confident in Jennie. She was a person outside the world and she did not even know how to cash in the shares she had. What trouble could she possibly cause?

“It's a good thing I met you. I plan to give half of your shares to Emily and I need your signature.”

Jennie's heart tightened. She and Emily each share half?

“Didn't you say she had a terminal illness? What does she need these possessions for?”

“You transferred these shares to me voluntarily and I even hired a lawyer to notarize them. They belong to me personally. Now you want to take them back. Do you want to pay a huge penalty?”

Marson's expression became more and more irritated. “The shares are just a piece of waste paper to you. It's better to give it to Emily so that she can feel at ease.

“Besides, when we were preparing for the wedding, Emily mentioned that I transferred your shares to you at the wedding. She said she was very envious, so I decided to transfer half of your shares to her. Don't wrongly accuse Emily, she is not materialistic.”

Jennie suddenly wanted to laugh.

Although Emily interfered in other people's marriages, slept with married men and coaxed men into giving her shares, she was a good girl who did not worship money.

She was about to open her mouth to sneer when she heard the sound of high heels tapping in the corridor.

Several people looked over and saw Emily, wearing a miniskirt and high heels, walking towards them with three twists and turned in her steps.

The young girl had fair and smooth skin and with her specially styled hairstyle, she looked fashionable and sexy.

It did not look like a terminal illness at all.

For some reason, Jennie remembered the chat records that Emily sent her.

[Marson: Take this money and buy whatever you want, Emily. I will feel disappointed if you don’t waste my money.]

Jennie and Emily's eyes met in the air and the latter raised her eyebrows in protest. “Why come to the law firm if you are sick instead of going to the hospital?”

Marson laughed twice with a guilty conscience, “Emily has never held shares before, so she came to take a look for the sake of novelty.”

After saying that, he frowned and looked at Jennie, saying unhappily, “You were like a homeless person when we met. But look at you now, you look like a rich lady, right?”

Jennie thought of the circle on the calendar and tried to calm herself down.

“I'm not the mistress of a wealthy family. I'm just a bumpkin. But now you have to beg a bumpkin like me to sign, right?”

Marson looked embarrassed, “Okay, stop messing around, I'll go home later and ask Emily to cook some of your favorite dishes.”

“You don't have to cook. Just pay the penalty and I'll sign immediately.”

After saying that, she walked around Emily and strode downstairs.

Behind her, there was a trot and someone called her, “Ms. Skinner, please wait a moment.”

Emily caught up with her, took out a powder puff and applied several layers of foundation on her face in front of her.

“Ms. Skinner, please help me check if I look like a terminally ill patient.”

Jennie glanced at her carefully applied sickly makeup.

Not like a patient, but like a dead person.

But Marson was blind. When he saw Emily like this, he felt so distressed that he wished he could take her place.

“Emily gave up her status and money for me and now she is almost dead. You just stayed with me for two more years than she did. What qualifications do you have to blame her?”

When jennie first heard that she would feel sad and try to defend herself, but now she just wanted to say, “Be careful that you may end up with a terminal illness if you keep pretending for too long.”

Emily sneered, “If I really have a terminal illness, don't we still have you as a miracle doctor? I heard that you were willing to bleed for Marson. Tsk tsk... Do you know what Marson said?

“He said that the smell of your blood makes him sick and he always secretly pours out the medicine when you are not paying attention.

“If I were you, I would have gone back to Earth King Valley long ago.”

Jennie's eyes were fierce, she lowered her voice and approached her, speaking word by word, “Guess, I have the ability to poison you to death without you noticing, or... poison both of you to death.”

Emily trembled all over and could not help but take two steps back.

“You dare? Marson won't let you go.”

After saying that, she felt that she was suppressed by Jennie and the calmness on her face instantly turned ferocious.

“What's so great about you? You're just a liar from the mountains. To tell you the truth, Marson married you because he was frightened by his uncles from the Rush Family. He was afraid that he would be punished by them again, so he married you to protect his family.

“During the days when he was begging you to marry him, we were in touch every day.”

Even though she had suffered many blows, Emily's words still added salt to her broken heart.

They had been married for seven years and Marson had lied to her for seven years.

Jennie thought she had found love, but she did not know that the other party was just taking advantage of her in the name of love.

“So, what?”

Emily glanced at Jennie and looked at the sadness in her eyes with pleasure.

“So, what are you still doing here? You're like a gold digger, pestering Marson for money and fame.”

“What else?”

Emily was slightly stunned and the previous joy was gone.

“I will pester him every day, call him, send messages, eat with him, take a bath with him, sleep with him and I will also give birth to a child for Marson. No matter how capable you are, the entire Rush Family will belong to me and my child in the future.”

Jennie curled her lips and smiled, “Are you done?

“Then let me give you a piece of advice. People who have too many abortions will face great risks in having children.”

She lowered her eyes to look at Emily's belly and suddenly raised her foot to kick at the tencentimeterhigh heel.

Emily stumbled and fell to the ground, her ankle hitting the stairs. She wailed, “Ah! "

Marson rushed down hurriedly. “Emily!”

Emily covered her ankle, her eyes filled with tears and she wanted to say something but hesitated.

“Jennie, Emily is here to chase you and coax you out of good intentions, but what are you doing now?”

“Marson, it's all my fault," she sobbed. A tear fell on Marson's hand, almost breaking his heart.

“Haha, you were so arrogant just now and now you're pretending to be weak. It would be a waste of your talent if you don't enter the entertainment industry.”

“Jennie!” Marson picked up Emily and glared at her fiercely, “Apologize.”

Jennie frowned. It was Emily who provoked her first. She retorted, “Do you know what she said just now?”

Marson looked at Emily with affectionate eyes.

“I don't need to know what Emily said, I just need to believe that Emily will never hurt others.”

Jennie suddenly smiled, even though a feeling of sadness surged in her heart.

A long time ago, Marson also said the same thing to her.

At that time, she had just married Marson and was not yet accustomed to life in the wealthy Rush Family.

Marson's aunt slandered her for pushing her aunt's niece.

The grandmother wanted to deal with it according to family rules.

It was Marson who stood by her and believed in her firmly.

“I don't need to watch the surveillance video. I just need to believe that Jennie is a good girl and she will never hurt anyone.”

Time flew. Seven years have passed. The words remain the same, but the person had changed.

“Apologize? Okay, but stop the wedding.”

With those words, Emily's back teeth began to creak.

“Why do you make the decision for us? It's us who want to have the wedding, not you.” Marson looked gloomy as he said that. “Don't go too far.”

“I went too far?” Jennie tried hard not to let her tears fall. “Why not put your story online and let the whole network judge who went too far?”

Marson's expression became more and more displeased and after a while, he snorted coldly, “You’re on your own.”

After saying that, he carried Emily and walked straight past her. Emily's high heels rubbed against her shoulders faintly.

Jennie looked at the two affectionate figures from behind. She turned around and went back to the law firm and found Amanda.

“I changed my mind.” Jennie said word by word, “I apply to check all the property under Marson's name, as well as every penny he transferred to Emily over the years. I want to take it back.”

Amanda nodded approvingly.

At the mansion, Marson gently massaged Emily's ankle.

Emily wrapped her arms around the man's neck, sobbing nonstop. “Honey, I was so scared just now. My heart is still pounding.”

“That’s why, Emily, don’t make her angry anymore.”

Emily pouted and acted coquettishly, while Marson smiled, “Fine, let me heal you. How about I give you a villa?”

Emily's anger turned into joy, but she still pouted in dissatisfaction, “Then I'm going to stay out of here today?”

“No need, you can live wherever you want.”

The two of them did not notice that there was already an extra camera in the Rush Family's house.

After a while, Jennie's phone screen lit up.

“You hurt Emily's foot. She can't walk anymore. Stay at home for a day.”

Jennie saved the surveillance video and information.

Back at Rush’s house, she crossed out a number on the calendar. There were six days left until the circle was completed.

Hearing the noise, Marson came out of the guest room with Jennie hanging around his neck.

“What are you doing? What are you drawing a circle for?”

Jennie said coldly, “It's a lucky day.”

The day when the circle was drawn was the day she left, so how could it not be a lucky day?

Something seemed wrong. Marson felt that the woman in front of him seemed a little different.

Jennie returned to the bedroom and started packing her things. That busy work lasted for several hours.

As Jennie went downstairs, she saw Emily sitting in the restaurant in her pajamas with a blush on her face. Jennie guessed what she was going to do.

But then, she was expressionless and said, “The guest room is too small. It's better to stay in the master bedroom.”

The surveillance camera in the master bedroom was of higher definition and there was a microphone installed on the bed too. So, it would be easier for Jennie to get a proof.

Marson did not expect Jennie to give up her bedroom on her own initiative. Just as he was about to ask what was going on, Emily stood up and fell into his arms as if she had no bones.

“Marson, my legs are weak, please carry me upstairs.”

Marson's eyes darkened, he picked up Emily and walked upstairs.

Emily made a peace gesture towards Jennie.

As soon as he entered the bedroom, Marson felt something was wrong, as if it was much emptier.

When he looked more closely, it seemed that all of Jennie's things were gone.

His interest was instantly extinguished and he hurried downstairs and asked, “Where are your things?”

Jennie was reading the asset inquiry application sent by Amanda without even looking up as answering, “I've made room for you.”

Marson stared blankly at Jennie who was swiping her phone from time to time.

“Jennie, where is your diamond ring?”

Jennie stopped what she was doing, raised her hand and looked around.

“Oh, I lost it..”

The truth was it was really lost.

Half a month ago, when Marson's true face was revealed, Jennie was so angry that she took off the diamond ring and threw it into the trash can.

So, that diamond ring worth millions may have ended up in the garbage mixing bin.

Marson frowned in dissatisfaction. “Hmph, even if you don't want it, there are people who do. When I put the diamond ring on Emily, don't cry and beg me.”

Jennie lowered his head and continued to browse his phone, as if he hadn't heard anything.

I don’t know whether it was the diamond ring that irritated Marson, or whether Marson himself had a change of heart.

That night, the property certificate of a luxury villa was placed in front of Jennie.

“This villa is given to you as compensation for the wedding you promised to give to Emily.”

Jennie took the property certificate, full of doubts.

Emily pouted in dissatisfaction, “Marson, where will I live after the wedding?”

Marson tapped Emily on the forehead and took out a note from his pocket.

“This is the password to the house in the back hills of the western suburbs. Be quiet. It will be good for your health.”

Emily's face lit up with joy, she took the note excitedly and thanked him repeatedly.

Jennie felt a chill in her heart.

He just gave his wife an ordinary villa, but for his lover, he gave the only midmountain mansion in the city.

Marson's balance had long been tilted.

“The villa is also very good. It's right in the city and convenient for going everywhere. But I can see if Ms. Skinner is not happy.”

Emily's eyes were full of pride and she did not forget to secretly mock, “Since the western suburbs are too far away. I still prefer to live here in the city.”

Jennie snorted coldly and threw the property certificate directly into Marson's arms.

“Give me the discount.”

No matter how much Marson gave Emily, she would get it back through legal means.

Jennie refused the villa and Marson was very dissatisfied.

He took the property certificate and stuffed it into Emily's arms, “Some people don't know what's good for them and some people know how to cherish it.”

He really did not understand where the simple and kind Jennie in Earth King Valley had gone.

Did she become so jealous and vicious?

The next day, Amanda asked Jennie to go to a secluded coffee shop.

“The assets have been checked. There are many people in the law firm who are gossipy. I asked you to come here to prevent the news from leaking out.”

Then, he sighed, “Look at you two. He wanted to pick the stars and the moon for you at the beginning. How did it come to this?”

Jennie sat down and asked the waiter to change the boiled water before she answered, “Please help me draft a divorce agreement, but don't include anything about the child.”

“Are you pregnant?” Amanda widened her eyes and looked at Jennie from head to toe. “You want an abortion?”

But she heard that abortion was not allowed in Earth King Valley.

Jennie smiled bitterly and shook her head.

“The child is innocent. I will raise him myself. I didn't tell Marson because I was afraid he would cause trouble.”

Jennie gently stroked her lower abdomen with her fingers and her voice became gentler.

Amanda sighed. She stopped trying to persuade her and just silently pushed the warm water in front of her.

When Jennie returned to Rush’s house, it was getting dark.

Marson halfknelt in front of Emily, his ear pressed against the woman's belly.

“Emily, is there really a child in here?”

“Jennie and I have been married for seven years and have no children. I even asked you to abort one of my children to save her face. I didn't expect you to be so strong and get pregnant again so soon.”

Emily's face turned slightly red and she glanced away shyly. “It's not my ability, it's all because of Marson's hard work.”

Jennie's stomach churned and he almost vomited while holding onto the door frame.

The noise was so loud that even a cat turned around to look at her.

Marson frowned, not noticing the thin layer of sweat on her forehead and said sternly, “Emily is pregnant. Please pay attention to nutrition when cooking these days.

“You don't have to feel wronged. You haven't been able to have a child for seven years. I guess it will be difficult for you to have one in the future. When the child is born, I will announce to the public that it is yours.”

He paused, his eyes fell on Jennie's lower abdomen, “Just take good care of Emily's health and the position of Mrs. Rush will still be yours.”

Jennie recovered and stared at the man in front of him, speaking subconsciously, “What if I'm pregnant too?”

Marson burst out laughing.

“Then go to the hospital to check whether you are really pregnant or not.”

Jennie had not gotten pregnant in seven years, so when she said she was also pregnant in front of pregnant’s Emily, everyone would think Jennie made up stories without considering the timing.

After saying that, regardless of Jennie's gloomy expression, he turned around and helped Emily upstairs, leaving Jennie alone standing at the door.

A cold wind blew and Jennie shivered.

She lowered her eyes to look at her belly and all the grievances in her heart disappeared.

“Tomorrow I will go to the old house to deliver the invitations. You can come with me. If my mother asks about it, remember to smooth things over and don't let my mother embarrass Emily.”

Jennie looked up and saw Marson standing at the top of the stairs, looking down at her.

She really could not imagine how someone could bring his wife and mistress to meet his parents so openly.

Even though she had long been accustomed to his coldness, she was still hurt by his selfrighteous expression.

“No.”​

Marson was dissatisfied by her answer and sneered, “You don't go? What if my mom makes things difficult for Emily? You know, ever since my dad had an illegitimate child, my mom hates extramarital affairs the most.”

Jennie had a blank expression on her face.

“Let me bear your mother's wrath while you and Emily are so in love with each other. This is too much of a calculation.”

Marson was speechless, opened his mouth and said after a long time, “Even if I owe you this time, you can get whatever compensation you want.”

Jennie pondered, “Then I want your bank card statement.”

It was convenient to check the marital property transferred to Emily.

The next day, two Maybachs sped out.

Knowing that Marson was coming back, his mother got up early and instructed the kitchen servants to do everything carefully.

The servant reported with an embarrassed look on his face, “Mr. Rush has brought someone back.”

Marson’s mother was stunned and Marson led Emily in.

He laughed dryly twice and the people around him were watching his mother's expression and dared not breathe.

“Mom, I have good news for you. Emily is pregnant. The doctor said it's a boy. You're going to be a grandmother.”

After saying that, he pushed Emily forward.

Emily understood and knelt in front of Marson’s mother, lowering her head and serving her tea.

But Marson’s mother remained motionless, her expression unpredictable.

Emily pursed her lips and blinked as she looked at Marson in grievance.

Marson pushed Jennie, signaling her to step forward to smooth things over.

Jennie said nothing, but the corners of her eyes turned red.

Seven years ago, when Marson brought her back home, his mother aslo looked down on her.

She was about to back out, but Marson asked her to believe him.

“My mother is old, you should be more obedient to her. We will be the ones to live with her in the future anyway.”

“When she gives you tea later, she'll make things difficult for you. Just bear with it for my sake, okay?”

When serving tea that day, Jennie held the cup for an entire hour and changed the tea countless times.

Marson’s mother either complained about the heat or the cold and even complained about the style of the teacup.

By the time she finished serving tea, her arms were so tired that she could not lift them, but Marson was very happy that day.

“Jennie, my mother finally acknowledges you. We will be a real couple from now on.

“So, from now on, I will be responsible for working hard outside and you will be responsible for looking beautiful. By the way, you can also help me take care of my body. We will have a big fat son soon.”

Even if Marson did not say it, Jennie would use all his medical skills to help him recover.

After seven years, we finally had a fat son.

But such a pity that Marson did not want it anymore.

Jennie touched her belly and smiled bitterly.

Emily's hand holding the teacup began to shake, tears welled up in her eyes, about to fall.

Marson’s mother glanced at Marson and Jennie.

“Jennie, do you think I should drink this cup of tea?” Marson’s mother asked.

Marson nudged Jennie with his elbow and winked.

Jennie was helpless when said, “Drink it, she wouldn't dare to poison it, don't worry.”

The people around wanted to plug their ears and cover their eyes and no one dared to look towards the center of the crowd.

Marson’s mother snorted coldly, “You are smart. You know you can't have children and you know to let Marson find someone else to have one. That's it. I'll give you this face.”

The servants immediately understood and said in unison.

“Congratulations, Mrs. Rush, you will be the grandmother.”

“Mrs. Rush is good at educating, so the daughterinlaw is sensible and considerate and the son is capable.”

“That's right.”

With each word of flattery, Marson’s mother expression became more and more proud.

Many people also quietly rolled their eyes and talked in low voices.

“It's said that Mrs. Rush can't stand extramarital affairs. It's easy for them to not accept it. They just give them a way out.”

“Hey, what I can't stand is my husband's extramarital affair, but my son's extramarital affair is a sign of his ability.”

The scene gradually became lively.

Everyone gathered around Marson’s mother and Marson to flatter them. Emily felt awkward and could only sit in the corner biting her lip while watching the servants ask Jennie for instructions on everything.

She walked up to Jennie with her belly inflated, looking arrogant when ordered, “Go tell the kitchen to feed the baby fish with less sugar and less oil.”

Jennie glanced at him and said, “Get lost!”

Seeing that she was giving proper instructions, Emily suddenly moved closer to her and lowered her voice, “I heard that Herbal Medicine relies on feeling the pulse to diagnose diseases. If your hand is destroyed, will Marson still keep you?”

Jennie paused, raised her eyes and stared at her coldly as she sneered, “If that day comes, all you have to worry about is your life.”

Emily tilted her head and pouted to look cute when answered, “Really? I don't believe it.”

Jennie turned her back and ignored her.

A servant came over and asked respectfully, “Madam, the medicinal food you mentioned…."

Jennie waved her hand and followed the servant to the kitchen.

As soon as she walked into the kitchen, a pot of hot soup was poured towards her face. Jennie jumped back and the servant behind her slammed the door shut.

She was anxious and reached out to stop him, but her wrist was stuck in the crack of the door. The servant tried to pull the door handle hard, seriously injuring her wrist.

At that time, hot soup poured down.

Jennie got anxious and kicked open the kitchen door, grabbing the servant to block the hot soup.

“Ah!” The servant cried out and blisters instantly appeared on his body.

“Who ordered you to do this?”

“No one ordered me to do this. I just can't stand you.”

The servant lying on the ground screamed in pain, but still struggled to get up, picked up the knife beside him and stabbed Jennie.

Jennie was unable to dodge and a bloody mark was left on his arm.

She was about to run away when two men suddenly jumped out from behind her, one raised his fist and the other hit her right hand with a long stick.

She was startled and could not dodge, so she took the blow on her shoulder.

The tearing pain in her shoulder made her squat on the ground.

Before she could recover, the man with the stick raised it again to hit her hard.

It looked like he would not give up until he broke her hand today.

Jennie gritted her teeth, took out a silver needle and threw it at the man.

The rules of Earth King Valley prohibited harming ordinary people, but at that critical moment of life and death, she could no longer care about anything.

The silver needle pierced the neck of the man holding the long stick and that man's eyes rolled back and he fainted.

The remaining few people looked at each other and no one dared to step forward.

Jennie stood up, brushed the dirt off her body and walked straight back to the living room.

Her eyes flashed and her gaze fell on Emily who was hiding in the crowd.

Emily saw that she was covered with wounds and had a panicked look in her eyes. She immediately wanted to hide in the direction of Marson.

Emily had just taken a few steps when she suddenly felt a pain in her neck and fell to the ground. She screamed in pain, “Marson, my stomach hurts.”

Jennie sneered and walked up to her, “I told you to worry about your life.”

“You, what do you want to do? I'm carrying the eldest grandson of the Rush Family.”

Emily trembled and huddled into a ball, pushing off the ground with her feet and trying to distance herself from Jennie.

Jennie's eyes were fierce. She pulled out the needle from Emily's neck and stabbed it in the face.

The tip of the needle just grazed Emily's skin and a huge force hit her waist.

She staggered and almost fell.

Marson helped Emily up and slapped Jennie in the face.

“You dare to do that? I really spoil you too much.

“You are a country bumpkin. I provide you with food and drink, but you are not grateful enough. You even dare to attack my child.”

The huge palm pushed Jennie against the wall.

Her lower abdomen twitched and she defended herself with a pale face, “She had someone beat me up in the kitchen and threatened to break my hand. I'm just retaliating.”

Emily lowered her head and hugged Marson, shed tears.

Marson sneered, “Emily hurt you? When she sees you, she is like a mouse seeing a cat. How can she have the courage to hurt you?

“Do you think everyone is as treacherous and cunning as you who poisons others at will?”

Like a bolt of thunder in a clear sky, Jennie's mind exploded instantly.

He said she was sinister and cunning.

He said he poisoned people at will.

But it was clearly him who cried to her and complained that the uncles of the Rush Family had ulterior motives towards him and wanted to harm him and he begged her to help find a way to teach them a lesson.

At that time, Marson had just been cured by her and returned to the Rush Family. Several young men in the Rush Family were eyeing him covetously and kept framing him.

It was Jennie who took action, making several people temporarily lose their minds without anyone noticing, which enabled Marson to successfully take down the Rush Family.

But then, he said she was insidious and cunning.

After Marson finished speaking, he picked up Emily and left.

The crowd gradually dispersed.

Jennie was left alone, standing in the living room with scars and blood stains all over her body.

No one came forward to put a piece of clothing on her, nor did anyone come forward to ask about her injuries.

Jennie touched her swollen face and tears fell.

“It doesn't matter,” she said to herself, “there is still one day left, just bear with it for one more day.”

That night, Marson sent someone to take Jennie to the hospital.

On the hospital bed, Emily had a sad and tearful look on her face.

Marson wiped her tears distressingly, then turned and scolded, “Because of you, Emily's condition has worsened. At tomorrow's wedding, I want you to kneel down and apologize to Emily in public.

“Emily is kind and won't argue with you, but you can't fail to show your support. When you move out, you should show up whenever I want to see you.”

Jennie looked at Marson intently for a moment, before speaking, “I sincerely hope that you can become the biological father of Emily's child.”

Marson was puzzled and asked, “What do you mean? Of course I am the father of the child.

“Emily is a good girl who is pure and innocent. Don't use your dirty thoughts to judge her.”

At that point, Jennie has become numb.

“Marson, I saved you as a doctor and my decision now is based on human nature. Remember to send me the bank statement you promised. Also, I wish you a happy life every year.”

After saying that, she turned and left, leaving only her back to the lovebirds.

As the figure disappeared in the ward, Marson exclaimed “Huh!”

What Jennie said seemed to have another deeper meaning.

He shook his head and thought again, Jennie gave up Earth King Valley for him. Although she had medical skills, she did not have a professional qualification certificate. Where could she go if she left him?

In the evening, it started to drizzle.

Jennie sat on the steps in front of the hospital, staring at the dark sky until dawn, when a man in a white coat held an umbrella to cover her.

“Doctor.” She raised her head and wanted to laugh, but tears started to flow down her face for some reason.

The man in the white coat wiped away her tears and sighed, “Let's go.”

Jennie got into the car without looking back. The car started and the hospital became smaller and smaller in the rearview mirror. The entire city gradually disappeared from sight.

Her stubborn behavior seven years ago left her with countless wounds. At that moment everything had changed, it was time for her to go back to the starting point and start over.

Marson and Emily’s wedding was scheduled to be held at the Sky Hotel.

Even the wellinformed wealthy family in Cleaveland gave a thumbsup to that ‘concubinetaking’ wedding and praised it, saying, “The Rush Family really knows how to have fun.”

Emily stood beautifully at one end of the red carpet, asking the bridesmaids to put her wedding dress in place and she looked towards the door proudly.

What was Jennie doing at this time? Was she secretly sad or wiping away tears, or was she cooking medicinal food to win back Marson's heart?

Thinking of medicinal food, Emily stuck out her tongue. It was a pity that she treated that bitter thing as a treasure. It smelled so bad.

The wedding was about to begin and Marson appeared at the other end of the red carpet.

At that time, all she needed to do was for Jennie to come over, hold her hand and personally hand herself over to her husband.

Thinking of Jennie's expression, Emily could not help but curl her lips and smile.

Soon, there was movement at the hotel entrance.

Amanda appeared.

She walked up to Marson, snatched the emcee's microphone and read loudly, “Mr. Rush, please sign this.”

After that, she put down the phone and warned in a low voice, “If you don't want to sign it, there's no guarantee that you can keep those intense videos of you and your Canary.”

After that, she handed over the documents.

Marson lowered his eyes and saw words on it: Divorce Agreement.

Marson laughed angrily.

That Jennie was still trying to trick him even at that time. He must teach her a good lesson that time.
