Once a Doormat, Now Untouchable Chapter 731
That single sentence didn't just enrage Marvin. It left Joseph, his wife Melissa Bell, and Leon's stepmother, Clara, staring at him in disbelief."What did you just say?" Marvin's voice was thick with incredulity.His eyes remained fixed on Leon as though he were looking at someone who had lost his mind. "Do you have any idea who the Huttons are? Do you have any idea what kind of man Diana's grandfather is? Have you completely lost your head?"In the eyes of the outside world, the Kingstons carried considerable weight. By Brimcrest's standards, they ranked among the best. But compared to the Huttons, they were nowhere close.If Diana hadn't chosen Leon, he would have faced a far steeper battle to claim the inheritance in the first place.And now he was saying this. If even one member of the household staff overheard and let it slip, the Kingstons would make an enemy of the Huttons overnight.After all those years of support, this was how you repaid them. Who would ever stand with

At the very least, Caleb remained the Hamptons' only son and sole heir. Leon's situation was different. The divorce would cost him more than his marriage. It would cost him his grip on the Kingston Group.Sydney didn't know the details, but she agreed completely.A woman like Diana was worldly, clear-eyed, and backed by an exceptional family. Whoever married her was the one marrying up, at least in Sydney's eyes.Sydney spoke with absolute certainty. "Exactly. But Diana will never regret it."She hadn't known Diana for long, but she was still sure of it. Diana wasn't the kind of woman who looked back.At Brimcrest City…Leon returned only to be consumed by company business first thing the next morning. By the time he finally surfaced, it was already afternoon.He checked his watch, picked up his cashmere coat, and headed for the door. He nearly collided with Liam, who was coming the other way.Leon frowned. "Something urgent?""Yes..." Liam hesitated, holding a two-copy docume

Julian didn't move.Sydney pressed both hands against his chest and turned her head away. "No way."She wasn't about to let this become common knowledge.Julian rested his forehead against hers. His dark eyes watched her, and his voice was low, unhurried, and thoroughly amused. "What do you mean, no woman could interest me?"Sydney shot him a look. "You're not just interested. You're an absolute, complete..."She had known for a long time what kind of person he really was beneath the surface. The problem was that he hid it so well in public. Everyone else only ever saw the cold, restrained version.The elevator chimed. The doors opened, and cool air from the parking level drifted inside.Julian let her go without pressing the issue. He straightened at an unhurried pace and took her hand as he turned. "Let's go."Peter saw them emerge and immediately rose to his feet, opening the rear passenger door. "Sir. Miss."Julian gave a short nod, waited until Sydney was settled inside,

Henry was too absorbed in the drama to notice that the CEO's expression had darkened completely.Marcus took one look at Julian's face and smoothly stepped in. "Sydney and I have always been nothing more than colleagues. A straightforward senior-junior relationship."If he was honest with himself, anything beyond that had always been one-sided. Sydney had probably never even noticed. From now on, watching her be happy from a distance would be enough. He wanted her to always be happy.Henry's eyes widened. "Then who is Dr. Wilson marrying?"Julian's gaze softened as he turned to Sydney and beckoned her over. "What brings you here all of a sudden? Did you have a proper lunch?"Henry's mind went completely blank. 'Since when did Mr. Sterling and Dr. Wilson become this familiar with each other?'There had been rumors about them once, but people had dismissed them as maliciously edited photos after a blogger broke down the evidence. No one in the company had taken the story seriously

Sydney smiled but didn't argue. She took the tablet into the lab, made the necessary adjustments herself, and handed it back to Marcus."The data's been corrected. You can run the simulation again tomorrow." Her voice was light, unhurried, and completely certain. "If everything goes smoothly, we should be entering clinical trials by the new year at the latest."Marcus blinked. "That soon?"He had been stuck on that dataset for longer than he cared to admit. She had walked in and solved the problem without breaking a sweat.Then again, that was exactly why Alan had taken her on as his direct student. It was hard not to favor someone who possessed both talent and dedication.They left the lab together.Marcus glanced at her, then hesitated before speaking. "Should we scale back your clinic hours a little? Just to be safe."He was concerned about how much strain her body could handle."No need." Sydney shook her head gently. Her hand drifted to her rounded belly before she realize

At the top floor of Sterling Group, Julian sat in his chair with unhurried ease as he listened to Elliot's report. A cold edge gradually settled over his expression."Sir, aside from the car, which was most likely a coincidence," Elliot said as he slid another file across the desk, "I also found no record of Tristan entering or leaving Jeremiah's building."He understood the significance of the findings. He had overlooked nothing and had delegated none of the investigation. He had assembled a team and conducted the inquiry himself.So far, nothing linked Tristan to Jeremiah. Nothing suggested Jeremiah was anyone other than who he appeared to be.The McLaren parked outside Jeremiah's residence matched the one Tristan owned, down to the model and color. Beyond that, however, there was no connection to pursue.Elliot had reviewed the security footage multiple times and found nothing. Either the two men had no connection at all, or Jeremiah was exceptionally skilled at covering his tr

It had once been their home.Since the day he'd walked away from Sydney's doorway, Caleb had moved back to Viridian Garden. The room still carried traces of her scent, faint but enough to give him a fragile sense of peace. Or maybe it was just his way of pretending she wasn't truly gone.The phone

Back then, the whole affair had caused quite a stir. The Huttons held immense power, and Old Z had gone into hiding like a turtle in its shell to keep the little girl's whereabouts secret. Eventually, desperate and cornered, he had come to them for help.Coincidentally, they had a shipment bound fo

Tiffany was surprised but not shocked. There was still a long road between those two—one tangled with misunderstandings and even blood-deep resentment.That kind of thing couldn't be fixed overnight. They needed time.Hence, being the sensible one, Tiffany said gently, "I'll head back. I just want

Megan protested, "This isn't a good idea, is it? What if Vee finds out? Wouldn't that make things even—"Raymond dropped his utensils with a sharp clang. "You're an outsider. Why do you have so many opinions? When my sister's talking, just listen."Did she really think she mattered that much?Hon
