Around ten o'clock, Grace brought a late-night snack to Joanna's room. Joanna was engrossed in a book. Without looking up, she gave a casual instruction, "Just leave it there."She continued reading, but after a while, she noticed Grace hadn't left. Reluctantly, she looked up. "Grace, do you... need something?""Uh—no, nothing. I just wanted to have a word with you," Grace said nervously, her hands clasped together."Oh? Go ahead," Joanna raised an eyebrow. Sensing Grace's unease, she tried to reassure her, "No need to be nervous. Just say what's on your mind.""Alright, alright," Grace smiled, her face brightening at Joanna's approachable demeanor. Joanna's kindness and gentleness always made her feel at ease. "Joanna, now that you're back... are you really not planning to reconcile with Lionel?"Grace had overheard Joanna's earlier remarks, and they had left her feeling anxious, like a cat on a hot tin roof."Grace, that's none of your business!" Joanna's face darkened, and she soun

"You took quite a while this time. I've been waiting for you," Earl said, taking a sip of his tea as his eyes continuously studied Joanna.She had blossomed even more beautifully!Elegant and graceful, with impeccable manners and a sharp mind, Joanna embodied all the virtues of a perfect wife. She was the ideal candidate to be Lionel's wife."I'm sorry, Grandfather. I didn't mean for it to take so long, but..." Joanna trailed off, her tone apologetic as she peeled an orange and offered it to Earl."I understand. You've endured a lot," Earl replied, shooting Lionel a sidelong glance.If only Lionel weren't so stubborn—cold and unyielding like a rock—ignoring Joanna to the point of driving her away. By now, Earl thought, he might have already been holding a great-grandson!Three years ago, Joanna had broken off the engagement, causing quite a scandal and tarnishing their family's reputation. But the fault wasn't entirely hers; their family had their share of the blame, so there wasn't m

"Do you two know each other?" Florence asked through a mouthful of food, her words slightly muffled as she glanced back and forth between the man and Chloe.Their expressions couldn't have been more telling—one looked pale as if seeing a venomous snake, while the other seemed overwhelmed, as if holding back a flood of emotions with no outlet."I, we…" Chloe stammered, her lips trembling as she struggled to respond."We've known each other for a long time!" Amos interjected swiftly, cutting her off."Huh, you do look familiar," Florence said, squinting at Amos as if trying to place him. She didn't pry further into their relationship but suddenly smacked the table as realization struck. "Oh, right! You're the CEO of Lumina, aren't you? I've been seeing you all over the media lately!""That's correct! Amos Morgan, at your service. Good evening, Miss Williams," Amos said with a courteous bow, though his gaze was fixed on Chloe.Chlo

After bidding Geoffrey farewell, she hurried home.Meanwhile, after Chloe left, Ray emerged from the hospital's corner, flanked by several men in black suits. He stared intently at Chloe's retreating figure until she disappeared from sight.Taking out his phone, he made a call and said coldly, "I order you to never contact her again!"Hanging up abruptly, he climbed into a sleek black business car that roared away."Father..." Geoffrey's face turned pale with anger as he stood nearby, gripping his phone tightly before furiously throwing it out the window. When had his father started meddling in his affairs again? In the past, no matter who he was with, his father never cared. So why now?***The Williams ResidenceAt that moment, Lionel was fuming silently, lounging on the sofa and playing games on his phone.During lunch, his seat had been deliberately arranged next to Joanna's—his grandfather's doing, no doubt. His grandfather had casually reminded him to serve Joanna food, to take

Chloe hailed a taxi and rushed home.When she arrived, Donna was in the middle of preparing dinner."Chloe, you're back?!" Donna greeted her with surprise, taking the bag from her hand. She glanced behind Chloe but didn't see Lionel."Uh..." Chloe replied as she changed her shoes and walked inside. Sensing her mother's unspoken question, she quickly explained, "I'm alone. He went to his grandfather's house.""Oh, I see." Donna sounded a bit disappointed. The house felt so empty, with just her here all day. If she didn't go out, she wouldn't even have anyone to talk to.Deep down, Donna wished Lionel and Chloe would come back more often. She always had food ready for them, but the food would go bad, and she'd have to throw it out and buy more, yet they never came. After waiting so long, it felt like a letdown when only Chloe returned. In her mind, she had completely accepted Lionel as her son-in-law.They rarely spoke much. As Chloe sat down, Donna hurriedly filled her glass with water
