Author: Tangy Candy
Trey's brow tightened, leaving him momentarily speechless.

"What? You refuse?" Stella suddenly sat up.

Her face, usually full of color, looked genuinely haggard now. She grabbed Trey's hand tightly. "If you had to choose between me and Angela, would you really choose her?"

"Mom, what are you doing? Why say something like that?" Trey hurried to calm her, well aware of her volatile and extreme temper, afraid she might work herself into another rage.

"I know Angela harbors some resentment towar

    Winnie didn't look at him. "You've become improper—slick-tongued and always grinning."Michael answered seriously, "You don't like it?"Winnie said nothing and quietly picked at her food.Michael continued, "I wasn't really that proper before, either. I just didn't have anything to be happy about, so there was no reason to joke around with anyone."But now it's different. I have someone I like, and I know she likes me too. Of course, I want to talk to her about everything and do everything with her."As she kept eating, Winnie suddenly started to smile.Even with her head lowered, Michael could see the happiness she couldn't hide."Does hearing me talk really make you that happy?"Seeing that she was focused only on eating, Michael quickly put a piece of meat onto her plate and leaned in close, lowering his voice."Marrying me isn't so bad, is it?"Winnie paused, shoved the meat into her mouth, and chewed for a long while before finally lifting her head to look at him.The s

    "Khloe's father is an idiot! That's the only reason why he could have been deceived by a venomous woman like Clarice!"Winnie hated hearing that and felt Michael was talking nonsense.At a time like this, was he still going to speak up for Clarice?By every measure—emotionally and morally—Clarice was unforgivable!If anything happened to Nick, then Clarice would deserve to die even more. Not just Khloe—Winnie herself wanted to kill that woman.Nick was such a good man. And yet, just to seize control of the Morrison Group, Clarice treated human life as worthless? How could anyone be so devoid of humanity?"Alright, alright, my fault. I said the wrong thing—hit me if you want!"Michael had been about to explain, but seeing how furious Winnie truly was, he quickly slapped himself twice on the mouth.Winnie panicked at once. She stood up, moved to his side, and grabbed his arm."What are you doing? If you said the wrong thing, then fine, but don't hit yourself! What if it hurts…"

    Michael spoke with an unusually light and joking tone.Since completely letting go of everything tied to his family, he had become nothing in name—but he was also free of all restraints. Instead, his mood felt easier than ever.Winnie looked at him, her eyes full of sweetness.Yet inside, her emotions were tangled, and her heart ached for him even more."Then why do you have so much time today, coming to have lunch with me?" After a moment's thought, she asked, "Is there something you wanted to talk about?""So you noticed."Michael smiled and leaned forward slightly as she tugged at him."I didn't actually come here just for you. I wanted to ask around about Khloe.""Khloe… did something happen to her?"Winnie was concerned the moment her name came up.Earlier, Khloe had even asked Michael to help investigate something. Was she all right in Naraida?Now that they were family, Michael trusted Winnie and didn't hide anything from her. He told her that Khloe had not been havin

    Without the halo of the Morrison family, without a job, and now married, even Michael's calm elegance could not hide how down-and-out he looked.People who had seen him said that although he still wore a suit, his luxury watch was gone, and there was no longer a fancy car waiting for him outside.It seemed Oscar was serious this time.Most likely, Michael's recent setback had come after Oscar gave the word.Now, even fewer people believed Michael would win.Everyone thought that within a few months, he would surely divorce Winnie.When Winnie saw these reports, her heart ached.Yesterday, Michael had said he was going out to meet some friends to discuss starting a business and potential work directions. He came back very late.Winnie waited anxiously for him, assuming he had already eaten outside. But instead, Michael came home starving. She cooked him a large bowl of noodles, which he devoured hungrily.Still, he told her cheerfully that he had already found a job and that sh

    Winnie's ears burned red. She didn't need to listen to know what they were talking about.Every major media outlet had already reported that Michael had been removed from the Morrison family, and that Oscar had severed the father–son relationship because Michael married without permission.Logically, this kind of news could have been suppressed easily if Oscar had wanted to. The fact that it spread so widely made it obvious the coverage had his tacit approval. The media even put Winnie's identity under the spotlight.They didn't publish her real name, but "the adopted daughter of a major toy manufacturer in Goldmont City" was practically the same as printing her ID card.What was more, someone had taken photos of Michael holding hands with Winnie in a restaurant.Her profile was captured clearly.Some outlets, hungry for clicks, even dug up a pile of her so-called "black history" from who knows where—painting her as a notoriously spoiled socialite in business circles, rebellious

    Ethan seemed not to hear a single word Charlotte said. He leaned close and whispered into her ear, absorbed in himself.His patience with Charlotte was wearing thin. No matter what she was trying to do—whether she meant to entice him or despised him—right now, he wanted her. Desperately.The more he thought about it, the more agitated he became."Then I should thank you," Charlotte said coolly. "But before you think about that, perhaps you should first consider how you're going to explain this to your mother—and how you're going to explain it to Khloe.""Khloe? Whether Khloe can even come back is another matter. What do I need to explain to her for?"Ethan blurted it out without thinking.Charlotte froze. "What do you mean by that?"Ethan was stunned as well. Seizing the chance, Charlotte shoved him away."Ethan, what did you mean just now? What happened to Khloe? Did something happen to her?"Seeing her panic, Ethan relaxed instead.He turned and sat down on the sofa at the
