'Argh! Every path I see ends in a roadblock! On the surface, it looks like there are many ways to Rome, but in reality, they're all blocked!"Renee repeatedly sighed, almost driven mad by the problem."Mommy, are you unhappy?" Aiden asked worriedly after pushing the door open to see Renee sighing."No. I'm very happy. I'm a winner in life with you and Abby by my side. Why would I not be happy?""Mommy, stop lying to me. You're clearly forcing your smile, and you blink a lot when you lie. I'm not a three-year-old anymore. I'm almost five, you know? Can you please stop insulting my intelligence?""Uh, well..."Like a thief caught in the act, Renee's smile froze on her face. After all, with Aiden's intelligence, her poor acting skills were a joke that would be easily exposed. So, she stopped pretending and was honest with Aiden."Adie, I've encountered a problem recently and need a little money. We may have to sell Sun Island temporarily to solve this problem. Are you and Abby ok

"Dear, stop beating him! If you continue, you'll kill our son...!" Hayden cried as she held Liam in her arms. Tears flowed down her face as she begged, "Liam is your only son! You have a huge business! If you kill him, who will inherit it?""Mom, I don't like that you said that!"Laura, the third daughter of the Osborne family, sneered, "You make it sound like we're not part of the family! What? Did you pick us up from the roadside? Even if Liam is no more, it's not like the Osborne name will go extinct! What century are we in? Why do you still prefer sons over daughters?""That's right!" Geronimo exclaimed. "Liam is not my only descendent! If I beat this loser to death, I still have six daughters! Every single one of them brings me less heartache than this loser, especially Laura! The family business I handed her has flourished these years, and I'd be at ease if I handed them all the business!"Laura smirked, then said to Liam, who was kneeling in the middle of the room, "When you

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief but didn't forget to take a jab where they could."All of you, shut up! Don't talk about Ren that way! Have you forgotten that she saved Liam and me before? With our family's status, even if we cultivated another eight hundred years, we'd still be unable to match up with Ren!" Leia yelled angrily at her family, and her cheeks flushed red."Take her away!" Liam ordered Leia, his head hanging low and fists clenched.His goddess and savior had been humiliated by his family! He was so ashamed that he couldn't even find the courage to look at Renee!"Geronimo, you better beat me to death today, or it’ll be your fault that I become a rebel!" Liam coldly warned Geronimo.Although the older man was his respected father, he had touched something precious of his! It wasn't something he could tolerate!"You stupid beat! How dare you say such damning things to me just for the sake of a used woman! Fine! I'll fulfill your wish and beat you to death!"Geroni

"Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."Renee waved her hand goodbye and walked away. But she soon paused and turned around to ask Liam, "By the way, do you know where Carmine Pawnshop's exact location is?""Why do you want to know?" Liam was immediately alarmed by her question. "What are you planning to do?""Just answer the question!" Renee replied sternly, looking displeased."It's near the Water Dock, but it's a really dangerous place, Boss. It's a lawless no man's land where even the Devil himself could get conned out of the clothes on his back!"Liam had been to that place with his father once or twice before, and it left a distinct impression in his mind. Suffice it to say, the experience had fueled his nightmares ever since!"Besides, Carmine Pawnshop is nothing like the ordinary pawn shop that you might expect. You must know that the pawn shop's owner, Mr. Q, is known as the Midnight Demon. Don't even think about making a deal with him—it's no different than selling your s

The old man raised his eyebrows, and with a half-smile said, "You are the granddaughter of Liliana Schneider, the heroine of North City, correct?"The smile on Renee's face faded. She became serious in a heartbeat as she asked, "How did you figure that out?"If he had guessed her name correctly, she could still have assumed that the old man must've loved reading gossip about famous people. As Stefan's ex-wife, her name and face were considerably recognizable. But the old man managed to guess her grandmother's name, and that was nothing short of amazing, because the Everheart family never publicly announced that the woman her grandfather married was the one and only Liliana Schneider from North City!"It looks like I got it right." The old man stroked his beard, then asked, "Do you believe in my skills now?""If you figured that out based on your fortune-telling skills," Renee clasped her hands together, "then you must be the master of all master fortune-tellers! I humbly bow to you
