“Alright, alright!” Milo said as he nodded. “You’re a wonderful child!” Charles’ eyes narrowed slightly, a glint appearing in his eyes upon hearing Milo call him a wonderful child. “Uncle Milo, I’m sure you haven’t invited me here just to catch up on old times, have you?” Then, he added, “When did you arrive in Brookville, Uncle?” “You’re so well-connected, I’m sure that news of even the slightest stir in Brookville would have made its way to your ears a long time ago, right?” “That’s an exaggeration, Uncle Milo. Brookville is such a big city. I wouldn’t know everything that goes on first-hand. I would know even less about the inconsequential happenings within the city,” Charles said in response to Milo, hurriedly changing the subject before Milo could respond. “Oh, right. You haven’t gotten the chance to meet my mother and Janet during this trip yet, right?” Milo paused. He had already been feeling agitated before this, and on top of that, Charles had jeered at him. Yet, the t

“But she didn’t volunteer to get sick. I had no choice myself all those years ago. Besides, Janet is perfectly fine now, and she’s not like her mother. I’ve cared for her for so many years, and have you ever seen her harm anyone?” Milo’s face was pale, and he looked like it was a secret of his that had been revealed. “Besides, you should know that Janet is a kind girl who never means anyone harm.” “Oh?” Charles raised an eyebrow, seemingly still unconvinced. “Either way, she’s still not someone I’d consider. If she’s a younger sister of mine, I’d take good care of her and ensure she never has to worry about her basic needs being met. However, if she harbors any ulterior motive, the Hoffman family would never approve of it, even if I didn’t express any opinion. You thought things to be simpler than they are,” Charles said as he got to his feet, directing his gaze downward to meet Milo’s eyes. “Treat this as a welcome gift from me to you, Uncle. If we ever get the chance to meet again,

"A wedding ring?" Janice stared at Charles in astonishment, her eyes wide with disbelief. "Oh my god, Mr. Hoffman, you must be joking. Are you really getting married?"The news of Charles wanting to get married was not just surprising to Janice; it would be unbelievable to anyone.Who could ever imagine that Charles Hoffman, of all people, was planning a wedding?Charles raised an eyebrow slightly, his expression calm as he looked at Janice. He nodded. "Yes, I'm getting married. Is that so hard for you to believe?"He chuckled softly and continued, "Do you have any recommendations?"Janice was still in shock. "I certainly have recommendations. Every piece of jewelry here is one-of-a-kind. No one else will ever have the same piece."But Mr. Hoffman, I'm finding it hard to imagine you getting married. Could it be that the person is…" She hesitated, then her eyes widened as a thought struck her. "It wouldn't be that actress from the recent rumors, would it?"However, that did not s

"What do you mean? Did you actually have a confrontation with Charlie?""I just..." Milo had not even finished his sentence when his phone rang. "What is it?" he snapped."Mr. Baker, the Sanders family from Harborpoint has decided to withdraw their investment. They said they're no longer considering a partnership," Milo's secretary reported from the other end.Milo froze, his eyes turning sharp. "What did you just say?""Jonathan Sanders himself said they won't be working with Baker Group this time." The secretary nervously gulped before continuing, "And there's more...""What else?" Milo demanded."Mr. Jace was photographed in Melcoon recently. Sir Baker is interrogating him now. Also, Baker Group's share price is plummeting. The chairman wants you to return immediately.""Jace Baker!" Milo seethed through gritted teeth, springing to his feet. "Book me a flight for this afternoon. I'm heading back right away!"After ending the call, Milo's expression turned even more severe. C

Slut?Winter narrowed her eyes and glanced up at Suzy. Suzy shrugged and mouthed, "Janet."If Winter had not known it was her, she might have kept a civil tone.Nonetheless, Janet's rude attitude and choice of words only fueled her anger further. Coupled with everything Janet had done to suppress her before, Winter felt a mix of old and new grudges bubbling up. There was no way she would let this go."So, it's you, Ms. Baker. What's the matter? What do you want with me?" Winter sneered."Why do you have so much free time, Ms. Baker? Shouldn't you be chatting with Mr. Hoffman? Oh, wait, I get it—you probably can't see him even if you want to right now, can you?"Winter laughed as she spoke, a laugh that only seemed to further provoke Janet's anger."You filthy slut," Janet spat out. "Don't get too full of yourself. Let me tell you, do you really think Charles truly likes you? Stop dreaming. I'm warning you, stay away from him, or I won't be so kind!""Oh? And what exactly do you
