Chapter 32

Author: Lilian Green
She wouldn’t have stolen it, would she?

Luna stopped short of voicing that last thought.

Just a few days ago, on her birthday, their grandmother had refused to give her anything at all.

Her eyes shifted, and she added, "Grandma said not long ago that this was meant for our future sister-in-law. So how did it end up in your hands?"

The implication couldn’t be clearer—she was practically accusing Autumn of stealing from their grandmother.

Hector didn’t hesitate.

He snatched the ornate box from Autumn’s hands and said sharply, "Autumn, Grandma’s always been good to you. How could you steal something she cherishes most?"

Simon chimed in coldly, "Caught red-handed—what do you have to say for yourself now?"

Autumn looked at the two of them, her gaze ice-cold.

These two really were Luna’s loyal lapdogs.

Each one raced to back her up, desperate not to fall behind, as if siding with Luna came with perks.

How had she never noticed before just how eager they were to please Luna?

She used to be

    Autumn nodded. "Alright, I understand."Even if her mentor hadn’t asked, she would have gone to find him anyway.There were still things she wanted to consult him about.Just then, Wilson and Edwin walked over. Edwin glanced at Autumn, noticing how pale she looked.He asked with concern, "Why do you look so unwell? Are you sick?"Autumn quickly explained, "Professor, I’m fine. I just had to step out for a moment. Sorry for making you worry."Wilson looked at Autumn, then turned to Edwin in surprise. "She’s your student too?"Edwin nodded slightly, pride flashing in his eyes. "You’ve all been asking who founded the AI diagnostic platform, haven’t you? It’s her."Autumn had always been a source of pride for him. Even after she stepped away, every time her name came up, his expression would fill with regret."I didn’t expect Z to be a young woman like her," Wilson said, his shock plain as day.He had imagined Z as a middle-aged man—or at least someone in their thirties.It had never cr

    But that wasn’t something she could say out loud. Still, she knew perfectly well—once the two families dropped all pretenses, it wouldn’t be just the Whites who ended up disgraced.Keith shot Vivian a sharp glance but said nothing. He simply called over a server and had her taken away.Vivian had no idea what Keith was thinking, but after humbling herself to this extent, surely he would agree, wouldn’t he?After all, both families were top-tier elites in Northhaven. Reputation was everything. If things escalated, neither family would walk away unscathed.As for that woman, Vivian didn’t believe Autumn came from a better background than hers. In all of Northhaven, families who could rival the Whites could be counted on one hand.To marry into the Sinclair family? That woman didn’t have what it took. Even if Keith really liked her, the Sinclairs would never approve.Thinking of that, a graceful smile curved on Vivian’s lips. Marriages among the wealthy were about equal status, no

    In a daze, Autumn thought she heard someone arguing.It sounded like a woman.Vivian White stood at the lounge door, staring at the tightly closed entrance. She couldn’t help but ask, "Keith, who is that woman inside? What’s your relationship with her?"At the last symposium, she had seen with her own eyes Keith carrying a woman out of the venue, and many others had witnessed it too.To calm things down, she had personally stepped forward to clarify that it was just a friend of Keith’s who had fainted.But now, Keith had once again carried a woman into the lounge in full view of the public, and that made things extremely awkward for her.When people asked who the woman was, she explained it was a friend of theirs.They didn’t say much to her face, but the moment she turned around, they began whispering.They joked that the prince sure had a lot of “friends,” and treated his female friends really well.Some even laughed and said they wanted to become Keith’s friend too.No matter how c

    "But she already has a general research direction. I believe it won’t be long before the paper comes out."Wilson shot Ethan a disdainful glance. "Really?"As long as there was a direction, meeting Z didn’t matter all that much anymore.Since she wanted to stay mysterious, there was no point pressing further.Ethan explained Autumn’s thoughts to Wilson, and the more he listened, the more interested he became. His eyes grew brighter with each word.He was genuinely looking forward to the publication of the project’s paper.Meanwhile, Autumn had rushed into the restroom and was hunched over the sink, vomiting for a long time. Her body felt completely drained.A wave of dizziness hit her. She leaned against the wall just to keep from collapsing. Her condition was clearly worsening.The side effects of the cancer medication were severe. The dizziness took time to subside.She slumped weakly against the wall, struggling to cope with the recurring waves of nausea and lightheadedness.Su

    Ryan curled his lips. Fine, he shouldn’t have meddled in the first place—it wasn’t his business anyway.When he looked up again, he saw Edwin and Wilson walking toward them.Wilson smiled as he spoke to Ethan, "Mr. Sharp, there was an emergency last time, so I didn’t get to see what Z really looked like. She’s not here today either, is she?"The moment he said that, everyone’s eyes lit up and turned to Ethan.They were all eager to know whether Z had actually shown up at the event.No one had heard anything beforehand, but Wilson’s question instantly piqued their interest.Ethan had intended to say she was here, but then remembered Autumn had asked him to keep her identity a secret, so he swallowed the words.He thought of saying she wasn’t here, but just as he was about to speak, his eyes met Edwin’s. So instead, he chose not to answer at all.He simply greeted him, "Good evening, Professor."A wave of surprise rippled through the crowd, so Ethan was one of Edwin’s students?No wond

    Ethan smiled and said, "Where I heard it from doesn’t matter. What matters is whether the news is true or not—only Mr. Carter knows the answer to that, don’t you think?"He was just testing the waters, not really planning to go after Julian. After all, it had nothing to do with him.But that didn’t mean he agreed with what they were doing. If Autumn ever wanted to go against this group, he would support her without hesitation.Julian pressed his lips into a thin line and said nothing. Instead, Luna stepped forward and said, "Mr. Sharp, you’ve misunderstood. I’ve known Julian for so many years. If he were married, how could I not know?"You must have heard it from someone with ulterior motives. Don’t take it to heart. I can vouch for him."Although she looked calm on the outside, she was starting to panic. She couldn’t understand how Ethan had found out about Julian’s marriage.If her two brothers ever learned the truth, it would cause total chaos.No. She absolutely couldn’t let th
