After all, it was clear in the agreement that once Sierra got involved with the King family, Anna could no longer interfere. Otherwise, the agreement would be void."I know." Sierra had already figured that out. "But I still want to give it a go."From the moment she learned her mother had been forced to give up the shares, Sierra knew Charlie was not someone to underestimate. On top of that, he and his two sons had joined forces to hurt her mother.Because of that, she understood that as long as she was still alive, an accident could happen at any time. If that was the case, she might as well go all in. Sierra would drag everything into the light. She would face everything head-on, no matter what they were planning. Not to mention, those shares had belonged to her mother in the first place."Alright. Since you've made up your mind, I won't say anything else." Seeing how serious she was, Anna stopped trying to persuade Sierra. "From now on, take Marcus with you whenever you go ou

As per the usual rules, a time limit would apply for the other members of the King family. The faster they finished, the more shares they would be given. If they took too long, they got nothing instead."Alright." Sierra made a note of it then started eating her breakfast.Seeing that the matter hadn't shaken Sierra in the slightest, Anna became even more certain that her daughter was meant for bigger things.She stayed calm when it came to things that were important. Not everyone had that kind of composure."Once I transfer the funds to you, they'll officially start discussing this with you," Anna told her. "They'll also give you a company that's going to go bankrupt soon."She did not mention it earlier because she assumed the rule had probably fallen out of use after all these years. She did not want it to still be in place.Sierra nodded. "Sure."Anna looked at her. "Tell me when you're ready."Sierra answered without hesitation. "Next week, after I get the divorce certific

Sierra replied to John's message. [Alright.]John stared at that emotionless word on the screen, his eyes darkening little by little. He could almost picture the look on Sierra's face when she typed it.Robin stood beside him. "Sir."John did not look up. "Speak.""Ms. Bell will arrive in Jade City at eight-twenty tomorrow morning. She should reach the Clerk's Office a little after nine." Robin gave his report, then added, "You should go back and get some rest. You'll look better when you see Ms. Bell.""Who told you to check?" John had promised Sierra that he wouldn't openly or secretly investigate her or arrange protection around her."I did it on my own," Robin answered.John's tone turned colder. "I don't want this happening again.""Understood," Robin nodded.That was what Robin said, but he had no intention of stopping.John had to keep his promise to Sierra and could not look into anything about her. But if Robin insisted on doing it himself, there wasn't much John cou

After thinking it over, Sierra gave Forde her answer. "It's for his own good."Forde wanted to say that even if it was for John's own good, she still shouldn't have revealed his secret so easily. But he quickly remembered that Sierra was different from everyone else, so he pushed those words back down."Then, it looks like Mr. Henderson has been eating and throwing up for quite a while," Dr. Smith said. "Otherwise, his test results wouldn't look like this.""What caused it?" Lance asked, worried. "Can you figure it out?""We've ruled out any physical symptoms related to the head and the stomach. It could be severe stress, or it could be psychological. As for the exact cause, only he knows it for sure," Dr. Smith answered. Robin instinctively glanced at Sierra. He already had a guess."His stomach hasn't been damaged yet, so it isn't that serious." Dr. Smith cared deeply about John's health. "As long as you keep an eye on him from now on and make sure he eats and doesn't throw up

No one wanted to be the one to bring up the conversation.Well, no one except Forde.He walked straight up to John as if he had no idea what pressure was. "You should eat, Boss."John acted like he hadn't heard Forde. His mind was still full of the cold look Sierra had given him."Forde said you were feeling sick after meals earlier, and you vomited everything you ate." Robin put it as tactfully as he could. "Is that true?"John raised his eyes slightly.Forde's eyes widened as he looked at John in disbelief. "It wasn't me."Robin sold Forde out without hesitation. "If it wasn't for you, then how would we know about it?"Lance nodded. "That's right."Dr. Smith nodded too. "Indeed.""You were the ones who told me to tell Ms. Bell, and Ms. Bell was the one who told you," Forde said, defending himself at once. He clearly didn't want John to think he could not keep a secret. "It had nothing to do with me."Something in John's eyes shifted.Robin spoke up at just the right momen
