Serena's offer not only provided Isaac with a job but also a continuation of his dream. Hence, he agreed to it.Before leaving, Serena said sincerely, "Mr. Cooper, I know you're a man of ingenuity, and I respect everyone with a dream and faith. I look forward to working with you."A smile spread across Isaac's face. "Me too, Ms. Judd. I look forward to working with you."…In a mansion located in the suburbs, Gary was sipping tea on a couch in the living room, looking upstairs anxiously.Opposite him, Desiree sat demurely, whispering, "Dad, why did you bring me?" "Your grandmother knows that you're in Nocturna. If you don't come along, it will seem like we're lacking in sincerity.""When I had amnesia, she didn't visit me, either.""That's nonsense. When you were hospitalized, she did send someone to check on you, but you didn't know about it."Desiree picked up her cup. "She's not that heartless, then.""Behave yourself later once she's here," Gary said as Jillian came down

Gary was speechless.Allowing an enemy to do as they pleased would only cause trouble in the future, and he was afraid that his nephew, Trevor Stone, would act outside of his expectations and jeopardize his position.If he had known that Trevor would grow up to be such a ruthless man, he would have gotten rid of him back then when he got rid of his elder brother, Billy Stone. Then, both of them could reunite in hell."What are you thinking about?" Jillian uttered suddenly, jerking Gary back to his senses."I'm just thinking… You and Dad had always favored Billy since we were young. Even when he's now dead, you're favoring his son.""Aren't you ashamed to mention this?" Alas, a shade of emotion appeared on Jillian's face. "You know exactly how Billy died!"It was him; Gary caused Billy's death. He killed her eldest son, his blood brother!But now, he wasn't the least ashamed to act aggrieved in her presence.A chill washed over Jillian's heart. "Get out of here!""Mom—""I mov

Afterward, Billy was naturally selected to be nurtured as the heir of the Stone family. In the meantime, Gary lived a carefree life.However, he wanted to be the CEO of Stone Enterprise and the family heir, too. But nobody would notice him with Billy around.He had to admit that Billy was outstanding. Every time they were in the same room, Gary would feel an irresistibly oppressive air.Perhaps some were born to be leaders, but in the end, Billy still died in his hands.When they went scuba diving together, he tampered with Billy's oxygen bottle, causing Billy to drown to his death.Gary assumed he had been meticulous enough. He thought that no one would find out. Alas, he underestimated his father's astuteness.It didn't take long before Gary became the biggest suspect and was uncovered by his father.That day, he groveled on his knees, begging for forgiveness from his father. Sorrowful and furious, his father almost killed him on the spot with a whip while Jillian sat in a cor

Serena smiled softly. "I can't let you down when you have so much trust in me."Jillian placed the invoices on the table. "In the future, you don't have to report every single menial thing to me. Do things without worries."As Jillian stared at her fixedly, she seemed to have seen another person through Serena—her son, Billy.He was also as dependable and warm as her, but he had left her forever.Grief washed over Jillian's chest as she said calmly, "Go ahead and do what you think is right. Your feud with Desiree has nothing to do with me, so don't worry about anything."Sensing that Jillian seemed tired, Serena decided not to impose on her further and left after mentioning a few more things.When she was gone, Jillian sat in the living room, sorrow shrouding her eyes. She looked as though she had aged years in just minutes.Erina approached her. "Ma'am, did you have an argument with Mr. Stone?"Snorting, Jillian held a shard of irony in her eyes and said, "An argument with him

"Why would you say that?" A despicable smile played on Thomas' lips. "We can also speak about sex. During those two weeks, you begged for me every night, and I ended up so weak every day. At that time, we were—""Enough!" Candice interrupted. "Tell me, how much does it take for you to leave me alone?""I heard that the Farrows will pay you 30 million dollars as severance after the baby is born. I want half of that.""What gives?""Because I contributed to your pregnancy." Thomas folded his arms. "You know what's going to happen if you don't share the money with me. Candice, you have no other choice."He was such a greedy man. Fury rose in Candice's heart, and she lowered her eyes as she contemplated.Rather than giving him 15 million, she reckoned it would be better to spend that money on getting rid of him completely.Thomas didn't have any family, anyway. Back then, she chose him to be the sperm donor whom she could dump afterward because he was an orphan. There wouldn't be

Candice finally calmed down a little at Serena's threat. The next second, she put on a pitiful face. "He's carrying a torch for me, but my heart belongs to Justin. I didn't cheat on him. I'm pregnant with Justin's child, and he's the only man in my heart now—""Drop the act. It makes me sick." Turning around, Serena left in a hurry.As Candice stared at her from behind, the look in her eyes gradually turned sinister. Thomas paced to her side. "What's up? Does that woman have a problem with you?" Gritting her teeth, Candice answered, "If it isn't because of her, I would've been Mrs. Farrow already.""Since you hate her so much, do you need my help to make her disappear?""Really?" Light sparkled in Candice's eyes, but she quickly found it a ridiculous idea. "The mandatory sentence for murder is death. Are you willing to risk your life for me? Stop kidding me.""Did you forget what I told you?" Thomas inched in closer to her. "I'm now dealing in illegal businesses and have a w

A shriek escaped Serena's lips, but she fell into an embrace instead.Her mind went blank for a second. Slowly, her eyes fluttered open, and a familiar face was right before her.Wilson raised his brows at her. "What's the storyline today, Ms. Judd? A fairytale princess falling from the skies?""Thank you," Serena muttered."A princess usually marries the man who saves her, right?"Serena kicked her legs. "Put me down."So many people were on the street, and this situation was embarrassing for her.A renovation worker rushed out. "Ms. Judd, I'm sorry. This ladder has a broken leg, and I forgot to mention it to you.""Get it fixed before someone else falls from it.""Okay." Carrying the ladder, the renovation worker returned inside.Meanwhile, Lauren and Joseph came out to check the situation. When they saw Serena swaddled in Wilson's arms, they couldn't help the looks on their faces. Composedly, Wilson placed Serena down and looked at her. "Aren't you going to invite me ins

Wilson didn't stay after finishing lunch and left after picking up a call.Gary was already waiting for him in the VIP lounge when he returned to his company. He approached him and greeted, "Hello, Mr. Stone.""Where were you?" Gary was puzzled, seeing the dust on Wilson. Wilson casually passed his suit jacket to Sebastian and sat across from Gary. "I just went for a stroll," he said."I heard from Desiree that there's a conflict between both of you," Gary said solemnly."So, are you here to reprimand me?" A smirk hung on Wilson's lips, but his face was unreadable.Gary slowly said, "Desiree tricked you, so I understand that you're unhappy about it. But you shouldn't forget that she was injured because of you. It's not a big deal that she pretended to have amnesia.""You're right, Mr. Stone.""Desiree is upset now. You should cheer her up.""Mr. Stone, you're making things difficult for me because I'm not capable of cheering up another person."Wilson crossed his legs. "Sh

Joanna had only just made the announcement when a few uniformed officers entered the kitchen. After presenting their warrant, they informed Serena they had come to investigate her patisserie.Serena had no grounds to obstruct the officers' work, so she agreed. The officers took a few ingredient samples and looked into the hygiene conditions of the patisserie."The results should be out soon, Ms. Judd. Wait for our notice," one of the officers said."Alright."When Serena had seen the officers out the door, she stopped all business sales in the patisserie. She also took a few ingredient samples to have them tested.Joanna was distressed. "Our ingredients are fine, Serena. What are you worried about?""We can't be too certain," Serena pointed out.Whoever was behind this wouldn't have stirred up this much trouble without laying the groundwork. Serena figured she was better off safe than sorry.She didn't have any connections to ensure a rapid testing of the ingredients, so she we

Jessica waited until Justin left before turning to Lila. "What's your relationship with Mr. Farrow?""I'm indebted to him," Lila said."Look, I don't care how you managed to bewitch Mr. Farrow, but I expect you to do a good job as my assistant. I won't go easy on you just because you're involved with Mr. Farrow, got it?" Jessica warned."Yes. Uh, Ms. Hayes, is there any work you'd like me to do now?" Lila asked."You can start with tidying up my workdesk.""Alright." Lila immediately went over to the desk and got to work.A smile curved Jessica's lips. She might not have been able to boss Serena around, but she doubted Lila was a tough opponent. "When you're done with the workdesk, get me a cup of coffee.""Got it," Lila replied dutifully.Jessica was pleased by Lila's obedience and turned to walk away.While tidying up Jessica's desk, Lila spotted the docket set on one side. It contained a thick tender proposal. She stared at the proposal for a few seconds, then looked away.

After leaving the restaurant, Justin gave Lila a ride back to her place, which she rented. Upon entering the residential area, he remarked, "This neighborhood looks old and run-down. You should move someplace nicer."Lila replied slowly, "I should, but first, I need a new job."When Justin heard this, he was suddenly reminded of something. "Your manager mentioned you were in college, but then you quit halfway and started working at the club because you were in dire straits. Which college did you go to?""I was a student at Nocturna University, the local campus," Lila answered."That's a pretty good university." Justin was a little stunned. This was the first time he'd asked about her private life, and her answer surprised him. After some thought, he offered, "You should go back to college. I'll continue to sponsor you.""Really?" Lila's eyes lit up. "Thank you, Mr. Farrow—""Stop thanking me. You were supposed to have a brilliant life full of experiences, and you shouldn't waste

Justin was seated at a table in a high-end restaurant in Nocturna as he stared at the phone in his hand. The news about Ronald was displayed on the screen.Surprised that Ronald had been imprisoned, Justin read the article carefully, then closed the page. The Quades' affairs were none of his concern. With his company recently gearing up to bid on a large project, he'd painstakingly drafted the tender proposal and planned to submit it for the bidding."Aren't you going to eat, Mr. Farrow?" Lila asked softly from across the table."I was checking the news," Justin said, pocketing his phone.Lila poked at the steak on her plate. "Mr. Farrow, this is my first time dining at such a fancy restaurant… I never had a chance to come to such places before.""I gave you money, didn't I? You can eat whatever and wherever you want.""You've been incredibly kind to me, Mr. Farrow… I must have saved the universe in my past life to meet you in this one," Lila said.Justin fell into a momentary d

Willow's voice trembled slightly, followed by a bitter smile. "Arthur, what do you think she was trying to do? I'd already given up on our relationship. And now, she dies right in front of me. Do you know what her last words to me were? She said she's sorry."She lowered her head, hands digging into her hair. She looked completely drained, both physically and emotionally. "I don't understand. Did she love me or not? If she did, why was she always siding with Ronald? Why didn't she ever stand up for me? But then, there were so many times I felt like she did love me."Tears slid down her cheeks. "I remember when I was little and had a fever. She stayed up the whole night with me, didn't sleep a second. When I got beaten, she'd secretly put medication on me. When I went overseas, she used to call and ask how I was doing. But after a few minutes, she'd start scolding me, saying I never called Ronald."If she really loved me, why didn't she protect me when he hit me? Why did she want me

Willow rushed forward and caught Carmen just before she collapsed.A nearby officer tackled Ronald to the ground.Carmen fell into her arms, tears streaming down her face. Her hand trembled as she reached up and gently touched Willow's cheek. There was sorrow and guilt in her eyes.Her vision blurred as her consciousness faded, but in that haze, she saw a memory—Willow as a child. Back when she first gave birth to her, Ronald and his mother, Sarah Pattinson, were furious that it was a girl. They didn't even bother to visit.For those first few years, it was just her and Willow getting through one sleepless night after another. It was Willow who filled the emptiness and pain in her heart.She used to hold that tiny child in the dark, press kisses onto her soft little face, and dream that one day her daughter would grow up to be poised and happy, with a good life ahead.However, the moment Ronald came back into their lives, fear returned with him. She feared him and ultimately ga

"What the hell is going on?" Ronald's face twisted with anger. He saw the door of the Cullinan swing open.Out stepped Wilson, his every move calm and deliberate.Ronald's expression darkened instantly. Wilson again? The nerve of that bastard, barging right into his house as if he were already dead.Wilson strolled into the room, barely glancing at the others before a faint smirk tugged at the corner of his lips. "Uncle Ronald, what's all this?""Wilson, shouldn't I be asking you that? You drove straight into my house. That's trespassing. What the hell do you think you're doing?" Ronald snapped.Wilson's eyes turned cold. "You're about to kill someone, and you're worried about trespassing?"Ronald sneered. "Are you here to save Willow? I never expected someone cold and heartless like you to actually care about her.""Of course. I'm just emotionally detached, not a monster like you," Wilson said.Ronald nearly choked on his fury. When it came to words, he couldn't match Wilson i

Willow was shaking with rage. "Ronald, you're disgusting. Hitting a woman? You're nothing but trash!""Hah!" Ronald's face twisted with fury. However, instead of lashing out, he suddenly calmed. "I see. No matter what, you still care about the woman who carried you for ten months, don't you? But do you think she cares about you?""What do you mean?" Willow frowned."She's been lying to you this whole time!" He jabbed a finger at Carmen. "This woman has been weak her whole life. She lives to serve me. I tell her to do something, and she does it. No questions asked!"Ever wonder how I found you in the Mardenes so quickly and easily? Your bracelet. There's a tracker inside! You idiot! Do you really believe she loved you?"Let me make this clear. No one has ever loved you. Not since the day you were born!" His voice thundered through the massive villa, every word like a hammer pounding into Willow's chest.Her face went pale. All the strength drained out of her.That one sentence wa

Arthur didn't say a word. He walked up to the table, picked up the pen, and signed his name on the document without hesitation.Ronald took the papers, and the joy on his face was unmistakable. It actually worked! Just like that?Nine percent of Collinsworth Group's shares would make him the biggest shareholder now. Arthur had lost his mind, giving up Collinsworth Group like it was nothing. What a delightful surprise."Let's go, Willow." Arthur reached for Willow's hand and was ready to go. They made it to the door, only to be blocked by two buff bodyguards.Arthur frowned. "What's this?"Ronald gave him a harmless smile. "You can leave. She stays.""Ronald, you promised to let her go once you got the shares!" Arthur rarely raised his voice, but now his anger flared.Ronald snorted. "Let her go? What the hell are you talking about? This is her home. Isn't it normal for her to stay here?"Willow turned around, eyes burning with fury. "You're a liar, Ronald. You're old enough to
