After Gisselle spoke, she didn't even spare Lennon a glance. She held Mabel's hand, leading her away.Lennon turned and looked at Mabel with pleading eyes, but she ignored his gaze completely."Mom, George, I know a place nearby where they're having a street music performance. Let's go check it out," Mabel suggested. "We can grab dinner after the show."George had no objections. "Sounds good. We can pick up some ingredients and cook at home. I'll let you try my cooking."Mabel smiled. "I'm looking forward to it."The two of them chatted and laughed. Mabel's eyes sparkled under the sunlight.Lennon, on the other hand, stood there, completely ignored. He watched Mabel, lost in thought. He remembered how she used to look at him the same way.Back then, her eyes were always full of warmth and affection whenever she looked at him, no matter what he was doing.Some said that a person only smiled when they saw their loved one. So, had Mabel fallen for this man?The thought twisted in

George continued, "Oh, wait, your family's already halfway in the grave. Because of the mess you've caused, Shepard Corp's stock price has plummeted. How much longer do you think you can keep this up?"As he said that, Lennon's eyes flickered.The Shepard family was indeed in a bad situation. The news from three months ago had been explosive, especially the parts involving medical issues, which were impossible to suppress.The Sterling family had been dragged into the storm because of Jessie. Now, she clung to Lennon, hoping to rise using the Shepard family's power.But the Shepard family was struggling to stay afloat, and Lennon's mind was preoccupied with Mabel while the company's affairs were a chaotic mess."Mind your own business. Once Mabel comes back to Cresvane with me, everything will be fine." Lennon snorted, then pressed the button to go upstairs again.George didn't waste any more words with him and simply followed upstairs.Just as they entered the elevator, Jessie

Jessie was acting completely insane. Even when the police arrived, she remained in that state.Mabel and George never showed up at any point, leaving everything to their lawyer.Even when Lennon requested to see Mabel, all he got was a cold reply. "Mr. Shepard, my client does not wish to see you. I suggest you keep your distance."It was the first time Lennon realized he was about to lose Mabel. She didn't love him anymore.At that thought, he looked at Jessie in the detention room, and his gaze was colder than it had ever been.…Mabel was abducted while she was taking gauze and iodine for George.

What do you want?"Mabel was tied to a chair, with Lennon standing in front of her, while Jessie lay helplessly

Lennon said, "Mabel, since you hate me, I'll kill myself to apologize. Will you forgive me then?"He collapsed to his knees in front of Mabel. His blood splattered onto her legs and arms. It was a scene that was both tragic and dramatic.But Mabel's eyes only held fear."Lennon, why bother?"In his dazed state, Mabel's cold voice reached him. "A mistake is a mistake. No matter what you do, we can never go back to how things were. I will never forgive you."The wail of sirens filled the air. When the police broke through the door, Lennon and Jessie had already passed out from blood loss.George rushed to Mabel's side. "Mabel, are you hurt?"Mabel shook her head. "No, I'm fine."He quickly untied her. When he saw the red marks on her wrists, his eyes filled with tenderness.As she was held in his arms, Mabel felt the tremor in his body."I'm really okay. He didn't want to hurt me. He just wanted to punish Jessie."Although Lennon looked terrifying, she knew the scalpel wasn't

Marriage was a gamble, especially after everything with Lennon.Just as Mabel finished speaking, a stack of bank cards appeared in front of her.George placed them in her hands, then opened his mobile banking app and began transferring money right in front of her."I still have some shares, but those are off-limits for now. I have over 100 million dollars in liquid assets. I'm transferring all of that to you now. From now on, you're in charge. You can kick me out whenever you want."I have properties in Mythara and Cresvane. Once we go back, I'll transfer those to you as well. Mabel, everything we have is yours. When you're with me, you'll always have the option to leave, and I'll be the one getting kicked out."I'm saying all this not because I think you care about money, but because I want to give you my everything. I just want a chance."His tone was sincere, but there was a touch of humility in it.Mabel, afraid he might actually transfer everything, quickly grabbed his phon
