Chapter 105

Author: Ginger Sue
Winter's eyes widened, and a sharp pain gripped her chest.

"Joshua, don't listen to a word he says!" Heather burst out. "Lawyers are professional liars. They twist everything!"

Joshua stepped closer, suspicion glinting in his upturned eyes. "Show me the proof."

Jessica's jaw tightened, resentment boiling beneath her chest.

Why did it feel to her as though Joshua still hadn't let go of Winter? Could he actually still have feelings for her?

Elijah's expression darkened. "I'll show you the evi

    "What's going on? Can't you see we're in the middle of a meeting?" Nigel looked visibly annoyed, slipping back into his bossy, high-and-mighty demeanor."Mr. Everhart, we have a problem!" Tony whispered urgently into his ear, "Ms. Everhart… is approaching the conference room, and she's not by herself!""Winter's here?" Nigel's face darkened instantly. "How could you let her in? Why didn't you have someone stop her?" he hissed through clenched teeth."I… I didn't dare!" Tony appeared completely intimidated. "After all, she's Mr. Stroud's wife, and Mr. Stroud just helped you through your crisis. Even if you feel otherwise, you still have to be polite out of respect for him…"He was right. Winter held the title of Mrs. Stroud. As long as their marriage remained valid, Nigel was obliged to show her at least a measure of respect."Damn it! Regardless, it was your responsibility to stop her! Is this conference room some place where just anyone can barge in?"As soon as Nigel's words la

    After receiving a so-called pardon from Joshua, Nigel immediately started getting carried away again. Even while recuperating in the hospital, he didn't forget to instruct Tony to purchase emerald gemstones from Jasper.Yet every time, the outcome was more loss than profit—stones worth tens of thousands split open to reveal nothing but worthless fragments. Still, Nigel was a born gambler. He lived for the rush.As the company sank deeper into trouble, he displayed neither urgency nor resolve. Other leaders would risk their entire fortunes in a desperate bid to turn things around.He, by contrast, wouldn't spend a single cent. Instead, he remained content to sit back and watch from the sidelines.Right in front of Winter, he put on a pitiful act, whining about being poor. He would risk tens of millions on gemstones and bets, yet wouldn't spend even a fraction of that to acquire components legitimately.If that weren't the case, why would Steven insist he felt secure only when Everl

    Night had fallen, and silence blanketed everything. Winter lay in bed, her mind wandering to Nigel being bailed out by Joshua and making his way back to Everlast Tech.She didn't know how he might challenge her going forward. The unknown left her caught between apprehension and anticipation.Sleep continued to evade her as she shifted restlessly beneath the covers. Suddenly, her phone vibrated on the bedside table.Winter reached over and picked it up. Alistair's name lit up on the screen. Why would he be calling at this hour? Had something gone wrong?Winter's heart tightened. She sat up and answered immediately. It almost felt as if it were her own son calling. She didn't dare waste a single second."What's wrong, Auro? Do you need my help with something?""W-Winter… I… I'm sorry to bother you so late…" Alistair's voice was delicate and weak. A faint sob lingered beneath his words."Don't worry. I wasn't tired anyway." Noticing that something was off with Alistair, Winter spok

    Rowena let out a snort and muttered, "If it truly is her… well, I suppose the two of you actually make a fitting pair.""What nonsense!" Susan retorted. "How could Zeke ever fall for a woman like that? Leonard, I must have read far too much into it earlier. Zeke has no interest in Joshua's wife whatsoever. They've only crossed paths a few times."Susan couldn't help but defend Ezekiel. After all, she knew Leonard cared about the Fulton family's reputation—and even more about the benefits a marriage alliance could bring.In his eyes, their children were nothing but tools to secure favor with the elite and expand Fulton Group. None of them were exempt.If Ezekiel were to get involved with a woman like Winter, Leonard would despise him even more. By then, Ezekiel would have no place left in the Fulton family."If that's truly the case, then all the better." Leonard let out a cold snort, his gaze dripping with disdain. "Zeke, such a woman could never be part of our family. Even if she

    Ezekiel pressed his lips together, his sharp jaw tightening—a silent display of the restraint he was forcing on himself.A married woman? Reginald and Rowena perked up at once.Reginald swirled his glass languidly, a teasing smirk tugging at his lips. "Well, well… Dad, Zeke has really brought back quite a surprise for you this time. Not only an eldest grandson, but now you don't even have to worry about his marriage arrangements anymore."Rowena sneered, "Exactly what Regi said. But Zeke… the woman you're interested in—does her husband even agree to let her go? And even if he did, you'd be humiliating the Fulton family, no?"You have a child and are not in line to inherit anything, but you're still one of us. You can't possibly marry a woman who's already been with someone else. That's basically a slap in Dad's face!"Leonard's expression darkened with each word.Susan's heart thumped nervously, and she hurried to explain, "Leonard, don't misunderstand. It's not what you think!"

    Alistair added, "Grandpa, Grandma, you don't have to accept me—but please don't be upset with Dad, okay? He works every day, raising me… It's really hard, really tiring."As he spoke, his nose reddened, tears threatening to spill.Everyone was stunned, including Ezekiel.Usually, Alistair was shy around others. Yet for his father, no matter the situation, he would step forward without hesitation.Ezekiel's chest tightened, and he felt a sting behind his eyes."Leonard, just look at how sensible this child is. Other kids can't even come close," Susan said, her earlier indifference giving way to a small measure of fondness."The Stroud family's child is the same age as Auro, but I've heard he's spoiled, unruly, and even bullying classmates at school. He's nowhere near as well-behaved as Zeke's son," she added.Leonard's hostility eased slightly when he heard that Alistair was better behaved than the Stroud family's child, his features relaxing. "Mm. Looks like you've done well rai
