Throughout the funeral, no reporters were allowed inside. Justin had made it clear he didn’t want the ceremony disturbed by the media, instead instructing the company to release an official statement. However, several reporters lingered outside the venue, hoping to catch a sensational moment to turn into headlines. “Why hasn’t the funeral procession started yet?” one journalist muttered, frustrated. He had already spotted Emma entering the hotel earlier. If he could capture her standing with the family in the role of a future daughter-in-law, it would be guaranteed front-page news. “These days, tabloid gossip spreads faster than anything else,” his colleague replied, glancing at his watch before shoveling another bite of takeout into his mouth. “Relax. It’s still early. They probably haven’t even started the meal yet. The funeral procession won’t happen until later this afternoon.” “What makes you so sure?” the first journalist asked, skeptical. “You’re not from here,

“Alright, got it.” Haley got up and asked the housekeeper for the local HOA’s contact number, then dialed it herself.“Hello, this is Haley from Mistletoe Villa. I’ve noticed a car parked in my driveway that doesn’t belong to any of our residents. It’s been there for a while, and I’ve also seen them using a camera to film toward my house. Could you send someone over to handle this? Thank you.”*Outside the villa, the sunset painted the entire sycamore-lined street in a fiery glow. A property manager approached from the direction of the sinking sun, stopping behind Justin’s car. After confirming the license plate, he knocked on the window.“Excuse me, sir. You’ve been parked in a private driveway for quite some time. The homeowner has filed a complaint, and I’m going to have to ask you to move your vehicle immediately.”Justin lowered the window. “I’m sorry, but I noticed there’s no car parked here right now. Could I stay just a little longer?”It was almost surreal—a powerful CE

Zac responded sincerely, “I haven’t informed my family about the marriage yet, but they’ve met Helen and really like her.” He chose not to mention Helen’s request to keep their marriage a secret. As her husband, it was his duty to protect and prioritize her, not shift the blame.Anticipating further challenges from Richard, Zac reached into his briefcase and placed the marriage agreement on the coffee table in front of Wilfred.“This is my promise and guarantee to Helen,” Zac declared firmly. “If I ever betray her, all my assets will go to her, and I’ll walk away with nothing. This document has already been notarized by my lawyer and takes effect immediately.”Wilfred picked up the document and carefully examined its contents. As Zac claimed, everything was clearly outlined, and Wilfred found himself somewhat impressed.Helen, unable to contain her happiness, bit her lip to suppress a grin. Her eyes sparkled with pride and affection as she looked at Zac. “See? The man I chose is

Alex peeked through the barely opened door, his little bottom wiggling as he tried to catch a better view. Seeing the adults heading toward the dining room, he closed the door and plopped down beside his brother.“So, now that Uncle-in-law Zac and Aunt Helen are married, does that mean we can go hang out with Uncle Justin all the time? Uncle Zac and Uncle Justin are good buddies, and Mom and Aunt Helen are besties. They’re a perfect match!” Alex’s excitement was palpable, and he had adjusted to calling Zac "Uncle-in-law" with surprising ease.Chase stayed silent, giving his overly enthusiastic little brother a side-eye. Justin was likely their biological father. How could Alex have met him so many times and not noticed anything unusual? Chase had started piecing things together after their visit to the hospital and meeting Mr. Yates Sr. Those encounters had raised suspicions. In the past couple of days, Chase had been digging through information online, and it seemed increasing

“Knock, knock.” The sound of knocking echoed through the room.Haley put down her phone and got up to open the door. “Wilfred?” Seeing it was Wilfred, she stepped aside to let him in. “There was something off about Justin at the funeral today,” Wilfred said, skipping any explanation for his presence at the event. Haley didn’t bother to ask. “He wasn’t just hostile toward me. He seemed unusually focused on everything I was doing. Has he been giving you trouble?” he asked, his concern evident. Haley sighed and gave a faint, helpless smile. “He misunderstood. He thinks you and I are together, and that we even have a child.” Since Wilfred had gone out of his way to ask, she decided not to keep it from him. Wilfred’s brows furrowed as his gaze sharpened. Justin was trying to get back into Haley’s life—that much was obvious. In this area, men understood each other all too well. “What are your thoughts?” he asked, his tone careful but firm. Truthfully, he didn’t wan
