Chapter 684

Frida continued saying, "He said he wasn't free. He wanted to spend Sylvia's last few days with her.

Don't you think it's laughable?! Ethan was his son. And he wasn't even willing to come back to see him.

He even thought I was playing some kind of trick. What a joke!

"Let me tell you, don't think I don't know that you're keeping the Arnold residence's land deed for that

illegitimate child. It'll never happen!

"If my son is dead, I won't let him live. I'll make him die with my son. I'll make sure the Arnold family line

is completely gone."

Evelyn responded, "Y-You, monster! You're just trying to force me to death!"

Frida chuckled and said mockingly, "You did the same to me back then. What goes around comes

around. Whatever belongs to Ethan, I'll take them back for him one by one. Back then you constantly

targeted YTCorp just to force me to get a divorce. You tortured me and made me insane. Even that, I

still wouldn't do anything to harm Ethan. He still hates me now. Now... Everything that happens to your

family is just a punishment."

She then glanced outside the door and said, "Come in!"

Marta's trembling hands were holding something wrapped in a black cloth as she replied, "M-Ms.

Young... This is what you asked for."

"Y-You two..." Evelyn wanted to snatch the item from Frida. She got off the bed and sat on the ground

to tidy herself before crawling toward Frida. Evelyn could not stand up no matter how she tried. She

grabbed Frida's pants as she yelled in a hoarse voice, "This belongs to my family..."

Frida lowered her head and sneered, "Mom, this is what my son, Ethan Arnold, deserves. He's the

eldest son of the Arnold family, the heir to the Arnold family.

"I'm just taking away what rightfully belongs to him on his behalf. Zach threatened you with Ethan's life,

and you didn't care. I figured that you're just waiting for that illegitimate child to come back and hand

this over to him with your own hands.

"Do you really think I'm useless?"

Evelyn had lost her strength to shout, "Give it back to me." She coughed several times before spitting

out blood unexpectedly.

Marta could not bear it and approached her, "Mrs. Arnold Sr.!"

Frida remained indifferent, "You don't need to resent me. What I'm doing now is no different from what

you did to me back then.

"But one thing you can rest assured of is that as long as my son is still alive, this house will forever

belong to someone named Arnold. Allowing someone to be by your side to take care of you is my act ofnovelbin

kindness."

Frida turned around. She wiped the bloodstains from her high-heeled shoe with a handkerchief before

leaving expressionlessly.

Friday got into the car and said, "Go to SereneCare Hospital."

"Yes, Madam."

Zach went back to Floral Loft. He received a photo of Madelyn on his phone. He thought, 'It's rare to

see her going out for a walk. It's a good thing that she got out of the apartment.'

Under the upscale apartment building, Zach visited the supermarket. He picked up some fruits and a

bouquet of flowers. Every fourteenth of the month was considered Valentine's Day, and the store gave

a rose to each homeowner.

Afterward, he took the elevator back up to his apartment. When he opened the door, he found Madelyn

lost in thought on the sofa.

Zach set down the items he had on the entrance table. Dinner was already prepared and laid out on

the dining table.

He playfully snapped the rose and sat beside her. Only then did Madelyn come out of her reverie and

notice the rose on her ear. She instinctively reached up to touch the vibrant bloom. She considered

removing it, but he said, "It looks beautiful. Don't take it off."

He thought, 'The flower is as beautiful as she is.'

Madelyn halted her hand and said, "Let's eat."
