Revenge is My Love Language novel Chapter 714

"He was gone, just after he was born." Lady's eyes filled with sorrow. "There was a major earthquake in Hayo that year, I don't know if you've heard of it. Your mother was unlucky enough to be there, and she was already close to her due date..."

An awful premonition washed over Anastasia.

"And as fate would have it, Susan was there at the same time..."

The earthquake struck, and a terrified Marina went into labor alone amidst the ruins, fighting for her life. She was utterly exhausted. The emergency lines were down, so her only option was to call her husband.

But Ryan didn't answer.

Because he was rushing to the hospital.

Susan was there, seriously injured and having a difficult delivery, crying that she needed him.

Ryan went to her. By the time he found out that his wife was also in Hayo, her fate unknown, it was too late.

Fortunately, Marina was a fighter and was eventually rescued. But the child she had carried and awaited for nine months was gone.

She was in extreme pain and suffered a complete breakdown during that time, losing all hope in her husband.

Once she had recovered slightly, filled with a burning hatred, she got in a car and tried to run Susan down.

Susan survived, but her health was ruined. To this day, she still faints periodically, and doctors have said that without meticulous care, she might not live past fifty.

Ryan was furious, and from that day forward, he sided completely with Susan.

From then on, his love was Susan. Marina was nothing more than a stranger.

Anastasia was silent for a long time after hearing the story.

Lady sighed again, and began to speak about Carter.

Carter had been frail since birth, so weak it seemed he might stop breathing at any moment. Susan was extremely protective of him, keeping him locked in his room for most of the past several years and rarely allowing him outside, terrified that some accident might befall him and paranoid that someone would try to harm him.

"You won't believe it—my family, we've hit the jackpot! I don't have to suck up to Monica anymore!"

"I know it was you! You're the one who helped my family, aren't you?!"

From Gwen's rambling words, Anastasia gathered that just yesterday, the Garcia family had secured a huge investment and had also stumbled into a highly sought-after project. The entire Garcia family was ecstatic.

They would no longer have to rely on the Scott family!

But after the excitement wore off, Gwen realized that such a fortunate coincidence was too good to be true. Someone must have stepped in to help her family.

As for who it was, she immediately thought of Anastasia and her boyfriend—the man who had dared to put Lennon in the hospital.

Seeing Gwen's sparkling eyes, Anastasia smiled. "It was nothing."

Harrison had indeed promised to help, but she hadn't expected him to act so quickly.
