Silence filled the air again after Caroline left. "Chery—" Jack started."Stop. You listen to me first." Cheryl straightened her back. "I was wrong last time. I shouldn't have gotten mad at you.""You were being kind by introducing me to someone else." She continued, "I'm so sorry." Jack suddenly found himself at a loss for words. The two of them sat quietly in the car after that. Sometime later, Cheryl broke the silence and asked, "What were you going to tell me just now?" Jack was about to say something but thought better of it. He shook his head and told her, "It's nothing. I have nothing to say." The words that were on the tip of his tongue just now disappeared. "Can we still be friends?" Chery asked. Staring into her smiling eyes, Jack found himself sympathizing with her. "Yes, of course.""That's great," Cheryl said. "So, we'll just pretend like nothing happened then?" "Okay …""Well then," said Cheryl, her tone sounding much more cheerful than before. "Let's go

Marietta felt a rush of emotions when she first saw Yvonne, but the feelings vanished rather quickly. She thought it was strange. She had anticipated more excitement when meeting her long-lost daughter. But as Yvonne walked toward her …Instead of sensing a familiar feeling with Yvonne, Marietta was growing increasingly resistant to the idea that she was her daughter.With a hand on her chest, Marietta told herself that she was feeling that way simply because she wasn't completely certain if Yvonne was her daughter yet. "Dad, Mom, why did you call me here?" Yvonne wasn't aware of Marietta. She was focused on reading the label "Laboratory" on the door behind her parents. "Are you feeling sick?" Yvonne asked worriedly."No." Aiden patted her on the shoulder. He explained, "Ms. Weiss here claims that you are her daughter. She wouldn't be convinced otherwise.""We wanted you to take a test." He continued, "Are you okay with this?" Only after hearing his words did Yvonne realize t

Caroline and Kirk were eating when they heard knocking on the door. She looked at the time and wondered aloud, "Who could be visiting us at this hour?""I'll get the door," said Kirk. He got up and headed toward the door. After peeking through the doorhole, his expression changed."Who is it?" asked Caroline.She had just asked her question when Kirk opened the door to admit a haggard-looking Marietta. Caroline rushed to her and led into the house. "Mom, what happened to you?"Marietta looked lifeless. "It's confirmed that Yvonne is my daughter," she mumbled."Isn't this great news? Why do you look so—" Marietta started mumbling again, leaving Caroline's sentence unfinished. Her voice was low, so Caroline couldn't tell if she was talking to her, or simply mumbling to herself."But she doesn't accept me as her mother," Marietta muttered.Caroline paled at her words and gripped Marietta's hands to comfort her.Kirk headed into the kitchen to pour Marietta a glass of water."Did

"Say no more, Layla will definitely win! Eddy will surely help Layla. He even helped her with Evanson Corp. He didn't say a word when she failed to manage it and gained some backlash. Instead, he helped her out of the mess!" "I am aware of this as well. It's precisely why I think Eddy will help her take over the Collins Group." "That's bullshit! That was in the past. Eddy doesn't even want to talk to Layla anymore. Otherwise, she would've been long out of prison." "If you don't have pictures of it, you can't prove it. If Layla reads this, she could sue you for defamation." "Hilarious! Do you think she can view these posts now? If you know nothing about this, just keep your mouth shut. At Jude Morrison's funeral, it was obvious who was supporting who.""Caroline was in charge of all the preparations for his funeral. Isn't the problem clear enough?" "What did I just read? Caroline took it upon herself to make the preparations for the funeral. Wow! Doesn't this mean that the M

In the assistant's message, someone claiming to be Yvonne's sister shared that she had an idea to help Yvonne accept her relationship with Marietta. Without giving it a second thought, Marietta immediately called her assistant. "Where is she?""She's at a cafe in Orchid Avenue right now," the assistant answered. "You can directly meet her there." Marietta hung up. She rushed to hail a cab and headed straight for the cafe. It didn't take long for her to reach her destination. It was pretty close to where Marietta was before. She suspected that the woman knew of her whereabouts and deliberately chose this place. As soon as she stepped into the cafe, Marietta saw Aurora sitting at a table. She instantly knew that her suspicions proved to be right."You were the one who messaged my assistant, right?" Marietta took a seat before Aurora, who was wearing a small smile.Aurora spoke respectfully to Marietta. "Yes, Ms. Weiss. I heard about the problem you're facing. It never occurred
