No one could make Lucas do anything, yet he harbored concerns and found certain topics difficult to discuss.Grace asked, "You're not thinking of remarrying Stella, are you?"Lucas nodded. "I am."Grace stared at him, unable to believe what she heard. "Are you sure?"Lucas replied, "I'm sure."Grace said, "You were the one who wanted a divorce, and now you want to remarry her. Lucas White, have you ever considered Stella's feelings?"When she thought about the mistreatment her daughter had suffered, she was so furious that her eyes turned red. She continued, "I know your family is wealthy, and we're poor. But no matter how poor we are, Mitch and I love our daughter very much, and Stella has had everything she wanted since she was a child. Before you appeared in her life, our family had never suffered such humiliation."Lucas replied, "I know."Grace was furious. "You know absolutely nothing."Lucas remained silent.Having always been polite to Lucas, Grace today abandoned all

Mitch liked his ex-son-in-law, Lucas, but the thought of his daughter almost losing her life because of Lucas made it impossible for him to remain cordial.He was soft-hearted and preferred harmony. That was why Grace took charge in the family. He glanced at Lucas, then at Grace.Being always strong-willed, Grace remained uncompromising. "We still can afford our meals, Mr. White. You don't need to worry about us."Lucas had a way to persuade Mitch and Grace to accept the dishes he prepared. "You've traveled a long distance, and you're my elders. It's only right for me to treat you to a meal."These dishes took several hours to prepare. Even if you don't eat, Stella must be hungry now. Let her eat some. She hasn't had much since she woke up. Extended hunger isn't good for her recovery."Mitch became extremely worried upon hearing that Stella had not eaten much since waking up. "Grace, let's eat. We can endure hunger, but Stella can't."Grace glared at Lucas and took the cart. "Tha

Lucas, frustrated, rapidly smoked through a whole pack of cigarettes.Beside Lucas, Robbie repeatedly contemplated speaking up, but fearing his anger, chose to wait in silence.Grabbing another pack of cigarettes, Lucas turned to Robbie and snapped, "You're standing there silently. Are you mute or trying to scare people?"Robbie wanted to curse, but he remained respectful. "Mr. White Sr. called again and insisted that you must go back tonight."Lucas sneered, "He removed the guards I had arranged for Stella's protection, allowing Stellie to execute her plan and seriously injure Stella. I haven't even dealt with him for that yet. And now he dares ask me to go back?""He probably wants to talk to you about matters related to the upcoming White Corporation's board meeting. Your uncle's family has been making bold moves lately. They're even trying to exploit your relationship with Stellie for their own gains. If you don't go back and don't answer Mr. White Sr.'s call, he might come to

Lionel held Jacey's hand tightly. "Don't just listen to him, Jacey. Let me explain. It isn't what you think--"Jacey thought, 'His wanting to explain means he's indirectly admitted it.'"Lucas, take me to Rhapsody Estates," Jacey said as she cut Lionel off and furiously walked away.With a triumphant expression, Lucas glanced at the pale-faced Lionel before following Jacey. "Mom, my car is parked outside the gate, not in the yard. This way, please. We'll be able to leave this heartbreaking place very quickly."Jacey walked outside without responding.Soon, they got into Lucas's car, with Jacey in the back seat and Lucas driving.After slowly leaving the villa area, Lucas glanced at Jacey in the rearview mirror. "Mom, are we really going to Rhapsody Estates?"Jacey's face showed little emotion as she asked in return, "When did you find out?"Lucas knowingly asked, "Find out about what?""You're my son. You can fool others, but not me. You must explain it to me today.""Right,

Jacey said, "Lionel knew the Sandows weren't good people. Yet, he fell into their trap. That was his mistake."Lucas responded, "Mom, do you want to hear the whole story?""Go on."Lucas continued, "Dad got drunk, fell unconscious, and then woke up in bed with that woman. Worried about you finding out, he thought of quickly settling the matter with money."However, that woman wasn't after money but wanted the construction rights for that project. Since that project was crucial to the White Corporation, Dad didn't agree to it."Then, with the persuasion and false documents from the father and son of the Sandow family, they managed to deceive Dad. Dad finally agreed which led to the final negative outcome."Jacey was not surprised that the Sandow family would do such a thing. What surprised her was that Lionel would actually make such a low-level mistake.She was too angry to say anything.It seemed like Lucas knew what his mother was thinking. "Mom, think carefully. You and Dad
