In the end , he even swallowed his pride and iraled his sworn enemy Yet aside from receiving his enemys mocking Inughter , the answer remained no Soon , the people he sent to search for Esmes whereabouts also reported back .
No one knew where she wa Esme seemed to have vanished into thin air , like a wisp of smoke disappearing without a trace .
He hung up the phone weakly and sat motionless in the chair through the night .
Meanwhile , Audrey struggled in the operating room for a full day and night before delivering a barely formed baby boy .
When she woke up , she saw her mother sitting by the The princes she te trom the past few days overwhelmed her , and her tears began to fall uncontrollably .
Mom Before she could finish speaking , Alice slapped her hard across the face .
Mom ? Audrey clutched her swollen cheek as she stared at Alice in disbelief .
Teas streamed from her eyes immediately .
However , still feeling it wasnt enough , Alice slapped her again even harder .
How could you stoop to becoming a mistress ? Alice trembled with anger , but it was the sorrow in her heart that consumed her .
The events between Isaiah and Audrey from the previous night had already spread acros Janesville .
Even james had rushed home in the middle of the night , leaving a womans bed to question Alice about what had happened .
Although the wealthy circles of Jonesville were known for their indulgent behavior , there was an unspoken rule not to expose such matters publicly , let alone tum them into And with shifting societal attitudes , the older generation had grown stricter in controlling the younger ones .
James had already issued a stern family rule his children were not to become mistresses , cause fatalities , or create public scandals .
Audreys actions had undoubtedly crossed every line .
And worse , she had become Isaiah Jabs mistress .
Everyone in their circles had heard about Isaiahs devotion to Esme James didnt care why a seemingly devoted Isaiah had cheated .
He only cared about the massive impact Audreys actions would have on the Colemans .
The stock value of Coleman Corp would plummet .
Not to mention , the arranged marriage of the Colemans eldest son , which had seemed a certainty , would be jeopardized .
In his fury , James ignored Alices pleas and immediately seened Audreys tie to the Coleman family tree .
That same night , he publicly announced that Andrey would no longer have any ties to the Colemans Alices heart was filled with despair .
As someone who had walked a similar path , she didnt want Audrey to repeat her mistakes .
From the moment Alice married into the Coleman family , she had meticulously planned Audreys future , including her ideal husband .
But now , everything had been destroyed by Audrey .
As she suppressed the pain in her heart , Alice threw a card onto Audreys lap .
From now on , youre on your own .
After speaking , Alice ignored Audreys breakdown and crying as she walked away resolutely .
Meanwhile , at the jabs estate , Esmes uncle , Nolan Carpenter , threw a punch straight at isalahs face .
Isaiah , is this how you treat my niece ? Isaiah was caught off guard by Nolans punch , and he stumbled backward several steps from the force .
However , Nolan wasnt satisfied and landed another punch .
The onlookers gasped in shock , yet no one dared to intervene .
holes , who had lived most of his life without ever losing his temper over anything , now found himself seething with rage .
His eyes burned , and his voice trembled as he spoke .
When you begged to marry Essie , you promised , loud and clear , that youd never betray her ! And yet , youve done something so despicable in just a few short years ! Nolan and his wife , Ruby Knight , had retired to the countryside after a lifetime of work .
They had only met Isaiah twice once at Esmes wedding and now , in this confrontation .
Though their encounters were few , Isalah and Esme always called them during holidays to send their regards , along with gifts delivered by Isaiahs people , This led Nolan and Ruby to believe Escne had married the right man .
But now , their seemingly perfect nephew in law had cheated and even fathered a child with the other woman .
How could Nolan possibly swallow this anger ? Even after finishing his scolding , Nolan raised his fist again to hit him .
But Ruby suddenly stopped him .
Thats enough , Lets pa She reminded him that finding Exme was more important now .
As for Isalah , their so called nephew in law , they would treat him as if he no longer existed .
Nolan finally pulled back , and his cold eyes were fixed on the man he had knocked to the ground , From now on , well act like you dont exist .
You just act like Essie was never married to you .
Isaiah had been in a daze from the moment he learned about Exmes divorce and disappearance .
But now , Nolans punches and harsh words finaly woke him up .
