Chapter 221 Bitterness

Inside the phone was a photo, which happened to be the scene from the recent conversation between Albert and Rebecca. Quincy had secretly taken quite a few photos and was eagerly sharing them with Wendy. Not only was Quincy describing the situation, but she was also constantly swiping through the photos on her phone. "Ms. Sherman, I heard you've been with Mr. Johnson for seven years. Do you know this beautiful lady? What's her relationship with Mr. Johnson?" The shooting angle was good; the camera perfectly captured the profiles of the two people. The man in the tailored suit affectionately raised his hand to pat the girl's head, wearing a gentle smile on his face and an unmistakable fondness in his eyes. No matter who saw it, they couldn't help but exclaim that it looked just like a scene from a romance TV show. Even Wendy couldn't help but stare blankly at these photos. Indeed, they were a perfect match, both in terms of talent and appearance. "Speaking of which, th

Chapter 222 What Makes You Think You Can Be My Mom

Hidden under the table, the little boy stared with his big round eyes, tilting his head slightly as if puzzled. Grown-ups sure were strange. They pretended like nothing was wrong even when they were clearly upset. Although the coffee smelled nice, it tasted bad. So, why did she have to frown and force herself to drink it? Even if she wanted to try, she could have added some sugar, right? If she didn't like it, why did she have to endure it? Oliver curiously looked at the woman sitting on the couch not far away. His small face was filled with questions. Wendy was also looking at him. The moment Wendy saw that little face, her heart surged with emotions. Her expression was a mix of astonishment and surprise. "Why are you here?" Wendy put down the coffee cup and quickly approached the table where the coffee machine was placed. She bent down, looking at the child worriedly. "Come out quickly. It's uncomfortable to stay here for so long!" Wendy's eyes were filled with co

Chapter 223 Dad

Oliver was startled and nearly dropped the cup of water he was holding. He didn't dare to drink water anymore. He quickly jumped off the sofa, and his whole demeanor reflected respectfulness. "Dad." Oliver still had a sense of fear when it came to Albert. Oliver has hidden at home before, causing everyone else to worry. Every time when they found him, they would affectionately call him their little sweetheart. However, his dad would scold him. Hence, Oliver didn't dare to look into Albert's eyes. On the other side, Wendy was also frozen in place. She hadn't expected Albert to appear at this moment. She wondered if he had heard what she had said earlier and how much he had heard. But upon reflection, Wendy realized it didn't matter much. Albert would never marry her, and she had no chance of marrying him. Wendy glanced at Albert's dark expression and the worried look on Rebecca's face behind him. Wendy suppressed her bitterness and mustered a faint smile. "Mr. John

Chapter 224 She Would Never Allow Such a Situation to Happen

It wasn't that the people from the Johnson family didn't tell Rebecca about it. It was just that after her aunt from the Seales family returned to Rookfort, there were some unpleasant disputes between their mom and the maternal side of the family. This led to reduced contact with the Stigg family in the following years. So, they didn't share all the details about the Stigg family with Rebecca. As for the Stigg family, they were well aware that Rebecca had returned. Several months ago, when Rebecca returned to Riverwood and the Johnson family donated ten billion, they had already sent a congratulatory gift. However, at that time, Rebecca had not yet formally returned home, and the Johnson family had not received any relatives from the maternal side as guests. So, they had not met anyone yet. "Once you've spent some time in Rookfort, you'll get to know the relatives. There's no need to rush," Albert explained, concerned that Rebecca might overthink things. Albert added, "Bo

Chapter 225 What Do You Want?

Wendy didn't even think twice before hanging up. With a stern face, she picked up her bag and left the office. At the same time, the clicking of keyboards around her fell silent for a moment. It wasn't until the slender figure of the woman disappeared into the president's office that the conversations resumed amidst the sound of typing. However, Wendy had no interest in the office gossip about her. As Wendy headed for the elevator, her phone buzzed again. It was a midsummer's day, but she felt a chill run down her spine. Her fingers trembled as she rejected the call again, feeling as if there were ghosts chasing her from behind. Upon reaching the underground parking garage, Wendy's phone didn't ring again. However, she received a new text message that made her want to smash her phone. "You're not answering the phone? Fine, I'm right outside your company's entrance. You don't have to answer the phone, but let's see if you can still go to work tomorrow!" The message was

Chapter 226 I Advise You to Roll Back to Where You Came From

At Rookfort Seaside, the waters of the rivers converged into the vast ocean, and the MRC Group was located near the river that flowed into the ocean. As the car had been driving for a while, they could already see the bridge spanning the river through the car window. After driving for a while, Nelson finally realized that something was wrong. He nervously clung to the passenger seat. Then, he trembled and said, 'My dear daughter, you can't do anything foolish. Look at how successful you are now, and you've grown up to be so beautiful. It would be a huge loss if we died together! We can discuss the money later, but safety comes first!' Wendy smiled coldly. This man was afraid of death, but his words were not wrong. Dying together with him wasn't worth it. It would be a disservice to herself, and an even greater disservice to her grandma who had raised her by collecting scrap material. Moreover, she hadn't even had the chance to see her child grow up properly, so why should

Chapter 227 Who Do the Winstons Think They Are

Wendy didn't even bother to look at Nelson again. She turned around and walked away. She couldn't believe she was even considering taking this scumbag to a restaurant just because he might not have had dinner. She should let him starve to death as he deserved it. Seeing Wendy walking away, Nelson quickly caught up and began to apologize desperately. "My dear daughter, I was wrong! You can't just abandon your own dad. If you let me leave like this, those loan sharks will beat me to death when I go back!" "What does that have to do with me?" Wendy raised her cold gaze and swept it over the man standing in her way, her so-called dad. "It's your own debt. Why should I repay it? I'll say it again, I don't have the money, and even if I did, I wouldn't give it to you! Get lost!" Wendy turned and walked away, not wanting to deal with him any longer. However, she was stopped again after taking only a few steps. Nelson had hit a dead end, so he decided to go all out. "So, y

Chapter 228 Such a Busybody

Rebecca found the situation both amusing and exasperating. She had never expected Mrs. Winston to be so eager to meddle in Daniel's affairs. Just after she had divorced Daniel, Mrs. Winston readily agreed to accept Jessica into the Winston family. Now that Jessica's engagement had been called off, she was already coming up with new plans.Furthermore, Rebecca had never imagined that Mrs. Winston would set her sights on the Johnson family.Rebecca had no intention of remarrying or returning to her previous marriage. She couldn't fathom why Mrs. Winston believed that the Johnson family would be willing to marry their daughter off to someone like Daniel, who was frequently trending due to his scandals.The messenger was quite foolish too. They never considered the situation from the Johnson family's perspective. If it were their own daughter, would they agree to such a marriage? Nevertheless, it wasn't her concern. "Alright, Mom, don't let this upset you. Let's just treat it

Chapter 229 Seven Years

It was a rare occurrence to see Zelda setting aside her usual grace and becoming so furious. Seeing this, Rebecca smiled brightly to one side. Thinking of the phone call this morning, she nodded and played along. "Isn't that right? It's all my fault for not knowing many people when I was younger. That's why I was so blind as to only like him."Thinking about it now, Rebecca really felt that it was lamentable. She had really been bound by the marriage arrangement decided by the elders of the two families. Zelda was enjoying herself as her daughter massaged her shoulders."Don't think about what happened in the past anymore. There's a long road ahead of you still. There are many handsome young men in Rookfort. Once you get familiar with things here, have Albert bring you around and attend more charity auctions and such. Got it?"Great. There they went again.Rebecca felt troubled by the suggestion, but she obediently agreed to it. Then, she turned to look pleadingly over at Alber

Chapter 230 I Found You

Him?Albert became slightly stunned when he heard Rebecca's question. He even drove slower in response.Rebecca understood what was going on with just a glance. "Alright, Albert. Focus on the road. Remember I'm in the car too," she joked, prompting Albert to come back to himself.Albert chuckled. "Don't worry, I won't put you in danger."Rebecca laughed as well. However, she didn't respond. She only turned to look out the window.The scenery sped by outside. Besides the occasional reminders from the GPS, there wasn't much noise in the car. There were many things in life that remained shrouded if no one pointed them out. Sometimes, it was just a brave step that banished the curtain of ignorance. It was a shame that there were far more cowards in life. Albert was one, and so was Rebecca herself.That Wendy person seemed to be one too.But luckily, Albert still had a chance.The night breeze swept up the fallen leaves by the roadside in a swirl. After a brief dance, they fell to
