Chapter 657

Author: Summer Blossom
Macie didn't know how she should feel about it. Should she be bitter? Filled with hatred? Or curse at life for its unfairness?

She was now an adult, with a clearer and more grounded view of life. Ultimately, everything came down to fate.

There was nothing she could do to change what had already happened. If she wanted to keep moving forward, she'd have to change her mindset and learn to adapt.

Alice watched Macie stare blankly into space. She knew that despite Macie's claims of acceptance, it was impossible for her not to feel uneasy about it.

Sharon had crossed every line. She'd repeatedly tried to take Macie's life, yet she'd managed to escape any legal consequences and was living her best life. No one could stomach such injustice.

Alice could confront Edward, argue with him, or do whatever she wanted when it came to him. But she didn't have the means or the influence to put Sharon behind bars.

If Sharon had come from any other family—even a family of average influence—Alice m

    Julian had initially called to say that he would pick Macie up and take her home, but she firmly and politely declined, telling him to go to work and that Alice would come instead. Julian had no choice but to give in.He knew that she was deliberately trying to maintain some distance between them. Still, he helped her request two extra days off from Palmer so she could rest, and Macie thanked him for that.She hadn't bought a new phone yet. She had lost her old one when she was nearly abducted before. She hadn't touched any electronics during her hospital stay, spending most of her time sleeping to recuperate."May, I'm here to pick you up." The hospital room door swung open, and Alice walked in holding a bouquet of flowers. "Wishing you a future free of illness. Stay safe and healthy."Macie smiled as she accepted the flowers, feeling moved by the gesture. "Thank you, Alice.""And this, too. It's a discharge gift." Alice picked up a gift bag and held it out to Macie.Macie looke

    No matter how terrible Sharon's character was, she was still the young lady of the Hale family. Elias would definitely step in to handle things for her. Still, Mitch wondered how someone could be this rotten. Sharon was clearly in the wrong, yet she had resorted to abduction. And once she gained the upper hand, she dragged innocent people down with her.Elias said it was because of her upbringing, but Mitch didn't buy that. Not every child who came out of that orphanage went on to become a criminal. Mitch believed that it still came down to a person's nature. But thoughts like that could only be kept to himself. He'd never dare say them out loud.As Mitch was lost in these thoughts, Elias asked him, "Did Morgan notice anything while following Sharon during the day?"Mitch shook his head. "No. Ms. Emerson only went shopping at the mall and then headed to the office. She didn't go anywhere else. During the time she was in her hotel room, we monitored her social media feed. Nothing s

    "Why don't you take a look yourself? This was when Sharon had just come back to the residence after being released from the detention center. The security guard blocked her from entering, and she went crazy. She even started attacking us," Claire said as she stepped forward. She held out her hand, which was holding the USB drive, and continued, "We had to call the police before she finally ran off. She ripped out a handful of my hair."Mitch glanced at the USB drive, then reached out to take it.Just then, the police arrived and took Claire and the others away. As she was being escorted out, Claire turned back to look at Mitch. She was unwilling to accept her fate. "Which one of us is actually worse than Sharon? She's just lucky. If we had a powerful background too, would we have to put up with her crap?"Her voice faded as she was led off. Mitch slipped the USB drive into his pocket.The investigation was still ongoing, but his part of the cleanup was almost complete. He was get

    In the lobby of LUXE Model Agency, Sharon followed after Elias, burning with frustration. She didn't know why Elias would only punish Oliver, but not Claire or the others. Moreover, she felt that Oliver had gotten off too easily. If it were up to her, he should've been beaten up and slapped across the face with a shoe. That would've been satisfying."Right. Didn't you come to get something?" Elias suddenly remembered and asked."No." Sharon shook her head, her expression clouded with disappointment and sadness. "The spot they told me to check was already cleared out. Everything was thrown into the trash.""They?" Elias asked."My former coworkers," Sharon replied.Elias pressed his lips together. "What were you trying to get? Was it something important? Was it identification documents?""Not IDs, but yeah… some papers and stuff. It's fine, Elias. If they tossed it, they tossed it."Elias didn't respond. Morgan opened the car door. Sharon got in first, followed by Elias from th

    "Those models humiliated me downstairs, too. They said disgusting things and were spreading filthy rumors about me and Morgan, and Mitch, and even you, Elias…" Sharon trailed off, biting her lip, her eyes glistening with tears."They also said you were some 80-year-old geezer and made me kneel and wipe their shoes. They even told me to bark like a dog," Sharon added.Elias' face darkened. The pressure in the room instantly intensified."Mr. Hale, that had nothing to do with me!" Oliver quickly distanced himself. "I never told them to say any of that. They probably just had a personal grudge against Ms. Emerson. It's between them."Elias stared at the cowardly man, his voice ice-cold as he said, "And as the boss, do you not bear any responsibility for your staff's conduct? This is a modeling agency. Is this the kind of quality your models represent? Slinging slander like it's nothing?Oliver went pale as he still tried to defend himself. "I usually keep things in line, but I can't

    Behind Sharon, Claire and the others almost gagged at the sugary tone in Sharon's voice. Still, they crept up to the corner to peek. They had to see just what kind of wrinkly old man this brother of hers was.On the stairwell, Elias looked up when he heard Sharon calling and offered a soft smile. Sharon jogged down the steps, and Elias gently warned her, "Slow down. Be careful.""I'm fine. I won't fall," Sharon replied cheerily as she naturally slipped her arm through his.Behind them, Oliver was sweating buckets. Now he was trembling all over, nearly tripping as he followed up the stairs.This "Mr. Hale" wasn't just tall and handsome. His presence alone was intimidating. And he really was Sharon's brother.The group made their way back upstairs. Off to the side on the second floor, Claire and the others caught a glimpse of Elias.They didn't need a full view of his face. One glance at that tall frame, the sleek designer fit, and that watch flashing on his wrist was enough. The m
