Chapter 106
Eva hadn't been in a good mood since she met Jenny. Originally, Eva thought that she could turn the situation around with her intelligence, but she didn't expect that the incident of Zoe would change Jenny's mind. Damn Zoe, why did he ruin her plan?
Zoe, the b*stard, deserved to go to hell. But he couldn't go to hell at this time! Eva hated Zoe and wished him to die, but what would Madrigal do if something bad happened to Zoe?
Yale must have thought that the reason why Eva tried her best to help Madrigal was that she hated Hannah and wanted to get back at Hannah's daughter. Actually, Eva had her own reason. Madrigal was her daughter.
Speaking of which, Eva had mixed feelings. She loved and hated Madrigal. She loved Madrigal because Madrigal was her own daughter. She hated her because she was the ugliest memory in her heart.
If it weren't for the fact that she could no longer get pregnant again, how could she have given birth to Madrigal at the risk of being humiliated? It was Hannah and Zoe who started all this.
Hannah and Eva were related by blood. According to common sense, they should love each other. But the truth was that they had always been enemies.
Eva's mother was the daughter of a down-and-out family. She was forced to marry Hannah's father because her family had declined. Later, she gave birth to Hannah and Xanjer.
Hannah's father died because of lung disease and left his poor family behind. Later, Eva's mother met a widowed young painter, Andrew Xi. Andrew was a famous local painter. He came from a rich family. His wife passed away after giving birth to Francisco.
Andrew met Eva's mother in a sketch and was overwhelmed by her beauty, so he started to pursue her. Andrew's gentleness naturally attracted Eva's mother, so they became a couple.
Andrew promised to take care of Hannah and Xanjer. This was a good thing but was refused by the Mo family. They gave Eva's mother two choices, one was to stay in the Mo family to take care of the two children, the other one was to abandon the two kids and leave with Andrew.
It was hard for Eva's mother to make a choice between love and family, but in the end, she chose Andrew.
Later, Eva knew that someone in the Mo family had a crush on her mother and was ready to marry her. However, her mother did not like that person, so the Mo family threatened her with her children.
Eva's mother chose to marry Andrew because she was pregnant with Eva. At that time, she had no other choice. Although Eva's mother married Andrew, she had been worried about Hannah and Xanjer. Since Eva was young, her mother had been missing Hannah and Xanjer.
When Eva was a child, she had been very looking forward to seeing her elder sister. Later, when she saw Hannah, she didn't like her at all. Eva remembered that when she was five years old, her mother took her back to the Mo family to see Hannah and Xanjer, but they were rejected. The rough village women of the Mo family scolded her mother with dirty words, saying that her mother was a shameless b*tch, who hooked up with another man shortly after her husband's death.
They even scolded Eva as a b*stard. Later, Eva's mother left with Eva disgracefully, which left a psychological shadow on young Eva. If it weren't for Hannah, they wouldn't have been humiliated like this. Although Eva's mother and Andrew loved each other very much, the Xi family didn't like her. The Xi family was a family of scholars. They were very disgusted with the fact that Eva's mother got pregnant before she married Andrew. When Eva was a child, she often heard servants gossiping about her mother. She also saw her mother being bullied by others and hiding in the room to cry secretly.
Andrew couldn't bear to see his wife suffer such humiliation. In the end, he moved out of Jiang City with his wife. Without discrimination and gossip, they lived a very happy life. However, Hannah and Xanjer lived a hard life. They were often beaten and scolded by the people who took care of them. Later, the people who took care of them died of an accident. When Eva's mother heard that they became orphans, she asked someone to pick them up. However, Hannah refused to live with her. Eva didn't know what the Mo family had said to Hannah, but Hannah hated her mother very much. She said that she didn't have such a shameless mother and she could feed herself and her brother herself, which made her mother very painful. Later, Andrew let his servant adopt Hannah and Xanjer anonymously so that Hannah and Xanjer could go to school.
Hannah's grades were very good. She had successfully gotten into the university. Xanjer was not interested in studying. He dropped out of junior high and stayed home.
Hannah was the prettiest girl when she was in college. Many boys liked her, including Eva's brother Francisco. Hannah disliked Francisco at first, but later their relationship became better.
Eva actually saw Francisco coming to Hannah. She'd never seen him so happy except when he was with Hannah.
Francisco was really nice to Hannah, which made Eva jealous. She and Francisco were brother and sister. Why was Francisco nicer to Hannah, who had no blood relationship with him? Because of this, Eva gradually began to envy Hannah. She would get angry when people around praised Hannah's beauty, intelligence, and talent.
Because of the excellent grades and talent in design, Francisco was invited to study at a well-known university abroad.
After Francisco went abroad, he quickly made great achievements in the design industry and became a famous design teacher. Because Francisco was abroad, Eva went to his place in the summer vacation. Francisco's friends were all from the upper class. Among them, there were many wealthy Chinese. Jim was one of them. Jim liked carving, and he gradually became Francisco's friend after a meeting. Because he often came to Francisco, he became friends with Eva.
Jim was handsome and gentle, and he was also the heir of a rich and powerful family. Eva took a fancy to him at first sight. She tried her best to get close to him.
Because of Francisco, Jim also treated her well. Fie even invited her to be his female companion at a party.
It made Eva very happy. She had always thought that Jim liked her, otherwise, he would not have invited her to be his female companion.
Eva had a crush on Jim. Francisco had seen through all her thoughts, so he warned her to stop dreaming. Fie said that in Jim's eyes, she was just his friend's sister. Besides, Jim's family background was beyond her reach.
But how could Eva listen to him? She liked Jim so much. She couldn't stay abroad too long and she was about to return to China soon. She hoped that Jim could confess to her as soon as possible so that they could be a couple.
Jim didn't confess to her, but he went back to China with her. At that time, Jim returned to China to visit a famous carving master. But Eva didn't think so. She thought it was just an excuse. His real purpose was to send her back.
Francisco asked Jim to bring gifts to Hannah. When Jim met Hannah, he was surprised by her beauty and fell in love with her at a glance.
For Hannah, Jim gave up going abroad. Instead, he settled down in the city on the excuse of learning carving. It was a good thing for Eva. She had always thought that Jim did it for her.
It was not until she saw Jim and Hannah start dating that she realized what had happened. She began to hate Hannah because she thought that Hannah shamelessly took her lover away.
Looking at the romance between Jim and Hannah, Eva's heart ached. She would never allow her man to be taken away by another woman, even if this woman was her sister.
She tried her best to break them up. Coincidentally, Zoe also liked Hannah, so Eva decided to use him.
Zoe was a famous talent in the school. His handsomeness won the favor of many girls. He also fell in love with Hannah at first sight, but Hannah was not interested in him.
No matter how Zoe pursued Hannah, Hannah was unmoved. Eva told Zoe that she could help him get Hannah. She also told him about her relationship with Hannah.
Zoe was naturally very happy that Eva wanted to help him. The two formed an alliance. Eva began to take the initiative to get close to Hannah. Hannah didn't hate her. Therefore, Eva often took Zoe to hang out with Hannah.
However, it didn't work. Hannah had no interest in Zoe at all. Seeing that, Eva had to think of other ways. The Wang family knew that Jim had a crush on a woman, and Old Mr. Wang naturally wouldn't allow it. Therefore, as Jim's fiancee, Gracie personally came to Jim. Jim made it clear to her that he had no feelings for her.
Eva was a selfish person. Since Zoe couldn't win Hannah's heart, she had to turn to others. Anyway, she couldn't let Hannah be with Jim. Gracie's arrival enlightened her. She used Jim's trust to set him up. Eva got Jim and Gracie drunk and let them have sex. She also informed Hannah to witness it. Hannah was sad when she saw Jim and Gracie together and finally chose to be with Zoe.
It was supposed to be the end, but it was just the beginning in Eva's eyes. She thought that she could be with Jim after he broke up with Hannah, but Jim actually chose to marry Gracie, who he didn't love. She thought that Hannah and Zoe would live a mediocre life after they got married, but Zoe actually became a successful official.
Only she got nothing. Eva was unwilling to give up. The thing that annoyed her most was that everyone except herself was living happily.
Francisco was asked by a French man to buy paintings. He asked Hannah to keep the paintings for him. However, the paintings he brought back were fake ones. Because of this, Francisco lost all his property and reputation. His parents could not accept the blow and then died.
Overnight, Eva became as poor as Hannah used to be. Her elder brother Francisco was so disheartened that he refused to pull himself together. Eva blamed all this on Hannah. If it weren't for Hannah, they wouldn't have become like this.
After the death of their parents, Francisco returned to Jiang City to live in seclusion. Eva had no choice but to go to an old servant who used to take care of Hannah. The servant lived in the cat's alley. From then on, she met Yale, who lived in the cat's paw alley and was commonly known as Flower.
Hannah felt guilty after knowing what happened to Eva and Francisco. She sent all her salary to Eva for her education. Eva was studying at a medical university at that time, so she was naturally short of money. She did not refuse Hannah's money but was not grateful for it. She was thinking about how to revenge on Hannah.
She became friends with Yale. Yale was popular in the cat's alley at that time. All the ruffians and hooligans coveted her beauty and were particularly good to her.
During the summer vacation when Eva graduated, Zoe went on a business trip to Jiang City. Hannah asked him to visit Eva and gave her money. Eva took Yale and Yale's cousin to see Zoe.
At that time, Zoe was young and handsome. Yale fell in love with him at first sight. Seeing this, a vicious plan had been formed in Eva's mind.
She wanted to make Hannah suffer the pain of being betrayed by her best friend. So she drugged Zoe and Yale's water, but she didn't expect that things went out of her control. Yale did have sex with Zoe, but something strange happened. When Eva woke up, she was naked and lying with Yale's cousin. Then, Yale's cousin began to pester her.
Yale's cousin was a local ruffian of the cat's alley. He treated her quite well before, but since he slept with her, he began to threaten her and asked her to be his lover. Otherwise, he would tell everyone about this matter. Eva chose to maintain a relationship with Yale's cousin for the sake of dignity. Unfortunately, she got pregnant.
She was going to kill the child, but the doctor told her that her body didn't allow her to do this. If she killed the child, she would never have another child in her life.
Yale's cousin also followed her to the hospital after hearing the news. In the end, Eva chose to keep this child. On the day she gave birth, Yale also gave birth to Zoe's child.
Eva hated Yale. She was not a fool. She set Zoe and Yale up, but she was also set up by Yale. Therefore, she persuaded Yale's cousin to give Yale's child to her. Of course, she would not raise Yale's child. Therefore, she asked Yale's cousin to send Yale's child away.
Eva knew that Yale gave birth to the child for a purpose. Yale must want to replace Hannah to be with Zoe. Eva used it as a bait to negotiate with Yale. She helped Yale get Zoe, and Yale helped her get rid of her cousin who was pestering her.
In the end, they succeed. Hannah died in a car accident. Yale became Zoe's legal wife, and Eva's child became Yale and Zoe's child. Yale's cousin was also sent to the prison.
After that, Eva left Jiang City and went to City A. After more than ten years of hard work, she became a famous doctor. But this was not the life she wanted. If it weren't for Zoe and Hannah, she would not have fallen into such a situation. She would have lived with Jim and become a rich madam.
Although she was well-known in the medical field, she was nothing compared to those rich ladies. She hated Hannah and Zoe to the extreme.
When Eva became a famous doctor in City A, Zoe became the mayor of City A. Eva was sincerely happy when she saw her beautiful daughter. Of course, if Madrigal had not had such a bad father, Eva would be happier.
To tell the truth, originally, Eva did not intend to deal with Monica. It was all Monica's fault for falling in love with the man that Madrigal liked. Monica was as shameless as Hannah.
Therefore, Eva continued to help Yale to deal with Hannah's daughter. She and Jenny were old friends, so she knew Jenny very well. Quarmy was the only son of the Huo Family. Jenny was a snobbish person who wanted to have a grandson. Based on this, Eva and Yale thought of a vicious plan. They asked Lassie to secretly drug Monica so that Monica could not get pregnant. When Jenny took Monica to the hospital, Eva gave the results of the professional examination.
Although the medicine Eva gave Monica was for infertility, Lassie added something to the medicine.
As a result, Monica could not be cured. Eva also persuaded Jenny to use Madrigal as a surrogate, which caused Monica and Quarmy to divorce.
Eva's plan was perfect, but she didn't expect that the final result was not what she wanted. In the end, Jenny wanted to abandon Madrigal because of Zoe's incident. Fortunately, Eva had an ace up her sleeve. She had to ask Xanjer about the design. As long as she got the design, she could negotiate with Jenny. Jenny would not give up such a big project.
Thinking of this, Eva went to find Xanjer. Xanjer was very cold when he saw her. He didn't say much and directly handed the drawing to her. Eva was happy. She pretended to thank Xanjer and left.
After getting the drawing, Eva calmed down a little. When she returned home, she began to think about what to do next. The drawing was just a bargaining chip. Jenny was too snobbish that she would easily change her mind. Eva thought that she must think of a perfect plan this time.
