Bill's face was already marked with several bloody scratches that were shocking

to look at. His eyes were bloodshot, and he was practically bald now he was on the verge of losing his mind.

"You still won't admit it? If not you, then who else? Who else would bother to abduct a single mother and her

child? You vile woman! What was | even thinking when | married you?" Bill gritted his teeth, cursing furiously, as

though he wanted to rip Judy's mouth apart with his bare hands.

Zack, their "love child," stood helplessly in the middle. If he blocked one, the other would hit him, and if he

stopped the other, the first would kick him. It was pure

agony.

"Can you two just stop? Dad, shouldn't you be figuring out how to find them? Hitting Mom isn't going to help!"

Zack sighed helplessly, rubbing his temples, then turned to Judy. "Mom, as for you -you still need to depend on

him financially in the future. If you tick him off, we'll be the ones who end up as the single mother and fatherless

child."

Despite being unreliable at times, Zack was oddly rational at this moment.

Sneering, Bill stopped arguing with Judy, simply turning and walking away.

Judy stared blankly as the husband she had once loved deeply walked further and further away, eventually

disappearing from view. Tears immediately streamed down her face.

"| treated him so well and even stayed with him for the longest twhen | couldn't even be his wife back then.

Now that he's gained a little success, he starts acting distant. How shameless! How can there be such shameless

men in this world?"

Her voice was choked, her tears and snot blending into a pitiful mess.

Zack sighed. "What can we do? He's always been that kind of person-you didn't just meet him yesterday. Forget

it. Just focus on figuring out what's next for us."

In truth, Zack had been considering getting on Angela's good side and relying on her for support.

After all, no matter what, she was far more capable than anyone else in their family.

"Hey! I'm talking to you—what are you daydreaming about?" Judy waved her hand in front of Zack's face before

giving him a shove.

Zack snapped out of it. "What? What did you say?"

Looking at her son's face, which bore a striking resemblance to Bill's, Judy felt deeply annoyed.

"Why do you look so much like your damn father? Get out of here before | decide to hit you!" she snapped.

Zack, utterly dumbfounded, sulked as he returned to his room.

Still, he felt something was off about Judy.

He knew his mother well. She wasn't someone who remembered the

kindness she received, but she was exceptionally good at holding grudges. Anyone who dared offend her would

definitely pay a price. And now, the one who had offended her was Bill.

Zack had a strong suspicion that Judy was planning to do something to him.

He waited nervously for two days until one night, he finally noticed something was wrong.

That night he heard strange noises

coming from the second-floor bedroom while half-asleep. He becfully awake in an instant and crept upstairs

before pressing his ear against the door.

"You... You poisoned me! You wretched woman, are you trying to kill me?" Bill's

voice was hoarse, as if someone were gripping his throat.

Judy snickered with a very pleased expression, as if excited and satisfied at finally exacting revenge.

"That's right. This poison was specially bought through the underground black market overseas. It's extremely

potent. Now, you have two choices-sign this transfer agreement and give all your shares to my son. Then I'll give

you the antidote so that you can live.

"If you refuse to sign it, I'll have someone take you away immediately. You'll be

dumped in sremote wilderness and die far away from here!"
