In Rose Mansion.Oprah received a disappointed call from Angela. Her voice sounded crestfallen over the phone. "Oprah, I'm coming back tonight.""What happened? Did you find him?" Oprah inquired.Angela choked up."Yes, I found him," she paused and pretended to say casually. "But he's with another woman. It's over between us."Oprah didn't know how to console her.Angela changed the subject. "How was the blind date? Did the other person give you a hard time?""It's hard to say."Oprah glanced outside at the sun setting."I'll come over tonight to see you and Kaleb, and we can talk then.""Okay."On a midsummer night, after Angela's return, she concealed her disappointment and refrained from mentioning Warren.Oprah and Kaleb tactfully avoided asking about it and instead shared details of the blind date."Aaron? How could it be him? If I had known, I would have clarified," Angela sighed."I'm worried he might retaliate against you now," Oprah honestly voiced her concerns.Angela didn't

After dropping Kaleb off at the kindergarten, Oprah and Angela grasped the rare chance to go shopping together.Due to Warren's situation, Angela decided to stay in Manhattan for a while to take care of Kaleb."Angela, thank you so much," Oprah expressed her gratitude sincerely."Come on. You don't have to say that."Meanwhile, in kindergarten.As soon as Kaleb entered the classroom, his handsome face immediately caught the attention of all the girls present.The teacher introduced him as a new student from Denmark and asked everyone to take good care of him.Angela's nephew, Jimmy, received a phone call from his aunt the previous night, informing him about the new student and asking him to befriend him.He expected the newcomer to be a tough boy, just like himself.But he never imagined that the new student would be so cute, even more adorable than the girls, and make people want to protect him.Jimmy waved at him.And Kaleb promptly took the seat beside him."You must be Kaleb, righ

Angela received a phone call and had to leave due to some urgent matters, leaving Oprah alone in the crowded street of Manhattan.It had been a while since she took a walk in the city.The midsummer weather changed suddenly, and dark clouds filled the sky.In no time, lightning flashed followed by pouring rain.Seeking shelter, Oprah stood under an eave, and a Bentley slowly came to a stop in front of her.As the car window rolled down, a handsome face appeared."Get in the car," Burgess said, sitting in the driver's seat with his lips slightly parted.After a brief hesitation, Oprah opened the back door."I'm not the driver. Come and sit in the front."Unable to open the back door, she reluctantly sat in the front passenger seat.Once inside the car, Oprah turned her head to gaze out of the window.For a moment, silence enveloped the vehicle.The incessant rain pounded against the windows, yet it did nothing to relieve the stifling atmosphere inside.Burgess continued driving without

The following day arrived.Oprah adorned herself in a form-fitting outfit, applying subtle makeup.As she left home, she packed the necessary tools in her bag, just in case.Soon, she stood before the Harrison Group.Making her way to the CEO's office, she found Burgess standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, smoking, consumed by thoughts of Oprah's words from the previous day.She had endured a miscarriage, which meant their child had long since passed away... Would she bear the resentment of him due to the loss of their child?A knock on the door interrupted his musings, prompting him to extinguish his cigarette. "Come in."Oprah pushed open the door, catching sight of Burgess clad in a sharp suit, his tall figure silhouetted against the light.Burgess's keen eyes reflected Oprah's delicate features and impressive physique.Locking eyes with him, Oprah closed the office door and approached."Mr. Burgess, after our discussion yesterday, I delved into the records of our past. I had m

In the evening.Following the time indicated on the invitation, Oprah had the driver take her to the opera house in the evening.Upon arrival, she noticed numerous social elites and media personnel present.Some of her former high school classmates were there as well.Zoey had booked the entire music hall and exhibition halls of the opera house, allowing only invited guests to enter.Oprah entered with her invitation and was assigned a seat with a broad view.From here, she could see most of the venue.Initially, she didn't grasp Zoey's intentions until she spotted a familiar figure just before the performance began.Burgess had actually come and was seated in the front row.With Burgess's presence, the media flocked to report on Zoey, and all the news was positive.The affluent classmates who used to look down on Oprah now sought to get close to Burgess, but they couldn't penetrate his entourage of bodyguards.From a distance, Oprah couldn't hear what he said to the bodyguards.Befor

In front of the crowd, Burgess didn't contradict her statement."Burgess, join us for the later gathering, okay?" Zoey added.Burgess, still angered by Oprah's earlier words, deliberately agreed in front of her, "Sure."A five-star restaurant had reserved an entire floor for the occasion.As soon as Burgess arrived, he was surrounded by Zoey and a group of wealthy people.Oprah sat alone on the side.At that moment, an elegantly dressed girl approached Oprah."See? Only Zoey can make Mr. Burgess move," she said."After all, Zoey was his first love."Oprah recognized this person. She was Jacquelyn, Zoey's best friend.Oprah took a sip of her drink and brushed off the comment. "From the looks of it, people who don't know the truth would think you and Burgess are dating."Jacquelyn had intended to vent her anger on behalf of Zoey, but Oprah's words almost made her stumble.Oprah no longer wanted to stay there and got up to leave.On the other hand, when Burgess finally managed to break f

The next day, Oprah was awakened by a phone call from Angela."Oprah, did you sell your song to Zoey?"Oprah couldn't help but wonder, "The artist agency M.G Media Group, which Zoey is affiliated with, contacted me earlier.""They wanted to purchase the rights to my songs, but I declined."Upon hearing Oprah's words, Angela grew furious. "Oprah, did you watch Zoey's new song release? The song The Turning Point of Love is a plagiarized work of yours!"Hearing this, Oprah opened her computer and found Zoey's new song release, The Turning Point of Love.Yesterday, she vaguely recognized it, but she hadn't paid close attention. Today, she listened again.Only then did she remember a song she casually composed years ago."Oprah, your song was called Turning Point, I still remember. She named it something almost identical." Angela sneered.Angela had loved that song ever since she first heard it."I remember. It was uploaded to a niche platform back then, and nobody paid much attention to i

Oprah knew that Zoey would not admit to plagiarism. She had asked her assistant to email M.G Media Group mainly to let the public know that she had warned them as soon as Zoey released a song when she sued Zoey in the future.Today was Friday.Oprah went to work at the headquarters first and planned to see Kaleb at night and spend the weekend together.At this moment, it was time to rest in the kindergarten.The eldest grandson of the Harrison family, Elvis, had been beaten up by Kaleb last time and had learned his lesson. Now no matter what Kaleb asked him, he answered honestly."Are you the heir to the Harrison family?" Kaleb asked.Elvis proudly said while playing with an eraser, "Of course."My mother said that I am the eldest grandson of the Harrison family, and everything in the Harrison family will be mine in the future."Kaleb didn't believe it, "But I heard that the current boss of the Harrison family is your uncle Burgess."Elvis was furious, "My uncle doesn't have a son.

Of course, he didn't tell Oprah that his friend was Elvis."It's great to make friends so quickly." Oprah was sincerely happy, "Well, you should go to bed early today.""OK."After Kaleb finished dinner and went to bed, Oprah and Angel chatted together.Angela took out two invitations and placed them in front of her."What is this?" Oprah was confused"Tomorrow, the old man of the Harrison family, that is, Burgess' grandfather, is celebrating his 80th birthday, and everyone important in Manhattan will be there." Angela lowered her voice, "My dad has always wanted me to get married. He thinks many wealthy young men will undoubtedly show up at Harrison's house. So he pulled some strings and got me an invitation. I asked him for an extra one for you."Aren't you trying to get close to Burgess? I think this is an opportunity."Oprah couldn't help being moved, "Thank you, Angela.""You’re very welcome. I asked you to help me on a blind date last time. This time you can also help me resist.

Why does the boy look so much like her daughter Oprah when she was little? Well... he also looks a bit like Burgess.She came to her sense and hurriedly called a servant."Go and bring Elvis and the kid beside him.""Yes."Roxanne put aside the flowers that hadn't been placed in the vase in her hands.Kaleb didn't wear a mask when he came here. He hadn't expected that the first person he met today would be his grandmother, who had bullied his mother.The servant called the two of them over.Elvis introduced Kaleb, "This is my uncle's mother, my aunt.""OK."Seeing the two children approaching, Roxanne never took her eyes off Kaleb.The boy looked so much like Oprah when she was little.Kaleb was alert and caught her gaze.He wondered whether she recognized him."Hello." Elvis greeted her obediently."Hello." Roxanne nodded indifferently.Kaleb followed suit and said politely, "Hello."His childish and soft voice instantly melted Roxanne's cold heart.She bent down and fixed all her at
