When John spontaneously struck up a conversation with Michael, Sophia and Serena were all smiles. All of them seemed to be living in harmony. Seeing how they were acting professionally made Christina feel like snickering. When Miss Laura was serving dinner, she asked all of them to enjoy the food while it was still hot. Sophia and Serena were most active during dinner, taking turns to place more food into Christina’s bowl. Their eager looks filled Christina with disgust. At last, Christina could not bear with their behavior anymore. The moment Sophia took more food for her, she moved her bowl away. John was aware that Christina disliked how Sophia was behaving, so he stopped Sophia. “Sophia, we’re family. There’s no need to be overly courteous. Just eat uninhibitedly.” What an act they were putting on during the meal. After dinner, Michael went to John’s study to talk to him.Once they entered the study, John’s smile faltered as his expression became somber. “Michael, tell me wh

“What do you mean?”“It’s silly of me. I always thought kneeling down to beg for forgiveness is a scene you only see in movies. I didn’t expect coming over for dinner here would give me a chance to see such an act.” Christina rose to her feet as she spoke, “Mayor Garcia, thanks for the dinner, but I’m not staying to watch the performance. It’s not really interesting. Spend more effort into rehearsing and try harder next time to tug at my heartstrings!”Then, without glancing in John’s direction, she turned around to leave. Naturally, Michael was not staying without her. He mumbled his goodbye to John before running after the woman.When the two silhouettes disappeared into the distance, John pulled a long face.Christina’s words reminded him of something. Serena would not have chosen this time to apologize if she was genuinely doing it. He looked over his shoulder at the woman who was still kneeling on the ground. “Why are you still doing that? Do you think you’ve not disgraced y

“Back then, Michael offered Christina a huge sum of money so that she could live the rest of her life without concern. Knowing it was a small amount for the Larson family, she deliberately left the household without a single penny in her name to make him guilty. She’s a treacherous woman.”Winona described Christina as a completely worthless person whose son even became an illegitimate child who she had with Sean.“Old Madam Young knew Christina was scheming against her grandson, so she insisted on not letting her into the family. Christina shamelessly stayed by Sean for three years. Upon learning about Michael’s marriage, she returned again to mess things up, not to mention still dreaming about her share of the Larson wealth!”“Christina and Serena are sisters from different mothers. Why does she want to destroy her sister’s marriage?”“There’s something you don’t know about Christina. She’s a selfish, treacherous, and vengeful person. She thinks Sophia stole her mother’s husband,

Christina’s gaze was filled with evident disdain and despise. “Actually, Miss Miller, there’s no need for you to get upset at me. You’re young and pretty. Just a tiny bit more effort and Michael will definitely be unable to leave your side!”“I’m not as shameless as you! I simply can’t bear to see you acting all bold and confident while stealing someone else’s fiancé. It’s another story if you love Michael, but you’re just using him for revenge. Your twisted personality makes you jealous of others' happiness!”Infuriated, Suzy could not care less about speaking politely. “You’re calling me a third party, but aren’t you a homewrecker yourself? Do you think you’re nobler than me?”What was this about? Could people not tell right from wrong anymore? Even a homewrecker was starting to seek justice for another homewrecker.“I’ve never called myself noble and I wish you’ll not pretend to be that in front of me. I’ve seen many disgusting things recently, but it’s surely a first to see an

Francis regretted the minute he handed the stadium blueprint to Winona. She was known for going back on her words. Even if he had lent her a hand, she might not stop pestering him as promised. He should not have believed her in the first place.He gave this a long consideration. The main competitors for this project were the Henderson family and the Larson family. Francis reckoned he should pay Matthew a visit.The latter was shocked to see him outside of his office.Francis cut to the chase. “I want to offer you a deal.”“What sort of deal?”“I’ll help you acquire the stadium construction project and in return, you’ll help Christina and I emigrate to another country so no one can find us.”“Christina’s willing to leave?”“She’s reluctant now simply because of Travis. We can leave whenever the time is right.”“Sure, I’ll sort out the immigration process. You can leave anytime you wish!” Matthew promised and instructed his staff to handle it right away.Francis retrieved a pi
