Chapter 1

"Millie, Dad, hang in there!" I shouted.The doctor pushed my daughter, Millie Grant, and my father-in-law, Phil Grant, toward the ER, moving at a dead run.Despair washed over me as I stumbled to keep up. I could only watch as the doors to the ER slammed shut behind them. My legs went weak, and I dropped to my knees in the hallway.That night, Millie's asthma had suddenly flared up. The medicine hadn't helped at all. I'd panicked and yelled for my wife, Janice Grant, wanting her to come with me to take Millie to the hospital.But the bedroom had been dead silent. There hadn't been any response at all. All I'd seen was a text message on my phone screen. "The system gave me another mission. I have to stay with Bruce all night."My hands had shaken with rage as I'd stared at that message. I might've put up with it on any other day, but just a few days ago, I'd specifically told Janice that Millie's condition was getting worse and that her asthma could deteriorate at any time. I'd be

"What?" I croaked. My mind went completely blank.The nurse supported me and brought me to Phil's room. He lay weakly on the hospital bed, tubes running all over his body.When he heard us come in, he forced his eyes open. "I've long since had my will done up. After I'm gone, you and Millie will inherit everything I own. As for my imbecile of a daughter… She's always complained that her mother and I forced her to do things she didn't like."Fine, then. I'll set her free. If she wants to be with Bruce, then she can have him. But she won't see a single cent of the Grant family's money!""Dad, don't say that. You're going to get better." I leaned over Phil's bed, tears streaming down my face. But no matter how I begged him to hold on, he still passed away.Phil and my father had been close friends back in the day. After my parents died, it was Phil who raised me and covered all my expenses. Six years ago, he'd asked me to marry Janice and help run the Grant family's company. He'd als

Janice watched my expression carefully as she spoke, saying, "I want Bruce to stay with us so I can complete my task. Also, daytime might not be enough, so I want him to share a room with me at night. Don't worry, though. We won't do anything."How absurd. I couldn't believe she could actually say something so ridiculous with a straight face. Then again, I'd never mattered to her. Why would she waste any effort on me?I smiled faintly. "Sure. He can move right in."I was going to move out with Millie at some point, anyway.Janice was taken aback for a moment at my response, clearly not expecting me to be so calm and not kick up a fuss. Then, she said, "I'm glad you're being understanding for once."Bruce wanted to have the master bedroom. I agreed without the slightest hesitation. As I headed there to pack my things, he joined me. He shot me a vicious glare and snarled, "How shameless can you be? Janice has already thoroughly humiliated you, yet you're still clinging to her. Don't

Bruce lay on the couch, looking smug as he said, "Thanks for this, Evan. I had a little fall just now, and Janice felt so bad for me that she asked you to come clean up instead."I stared at the mess on the bed and felt a wave of nausea. I couldn't stop myself from punching Bruce squarely in the face. "You're disgusting. Do you really enjoy being the other man that much? Don't you have any shame?"He covered his cheek and looked pitifully over at Janice. "Janice, am I the other man here?""How dare you hit Bruce, you lunatic!" Janice kicked me hard in the back.I stumbled, my foot catching on their clothes strewn across the floor, and crashed to the floor. My forehead slammed into the corner of the bed, splitting the skin open.I reached up and touched the spot. My fingers came away bright red with blood. The sting of pain brought tears to my eyes.There was a flicker of guilt in Janice's eyes when she saw the blood and my tears, but it disappeared as quickly as it had come. She

Chapter 5

Janice had a bad feeling about this. Her hands shook as she ran out of the bridal suite. As soon as she looked up, she saw it—the giant screen that was supposed to be playing a beautiful wedding montage now showed photos of her in bed with Bruce!Bruce, dressed in a white tuxedo, was shouting hysterically. "Turn it off! Turn the video off! Turn it off now!"But no matter how hard he jabbed at the remote, the screen didn't respond at all. It just kept looping those explicit clips and photos.Janice's best friend stood there trembling as she said, "Janice, it's not just the screen here that's playing this montage. Every screen in the city is playing it! Now, everyone knows that Bruce is the other man, and you're the cheating wife. And it's not just the videos. There's more…"As things played out, I sunbathed on a beach with Millie. I was in a very good mood as I watched the chaos unfold on my phone. I stared at Bruce's ashen face, thinking that the money I'd spent on this live broadc

Chapter 6

Janice stood there alone for a long time, until Bruce finally came looking for her. He had already changed out of his tuxedo. He walked over to her and said softly, "Janice, don't be sad. We can start a new family together."She stared at him, but there was no joy in her expression. His gaze flickered as he feigned confusion and said, "We're married now. Aren't you happy?"Janice stayed silent. Too much had happened that day. Her thoughts and mind were in a mess. After a long pause, she finally said dazedly, "I am."Yes, she was supposed to be happy. Bruce was the man she loved with all her heart, and now, they could officially be together. She was supposed to be blissful.So why did her chest hurt so much?…The next morning, before Janice could pull herself out of her downward spiral, she got a call from her secretary, Emily Smith."Ms. Grant, you should come to the office right away. You've been stripped of your position. You're being kicked out of the company.""That's impo

Chapter 7

Tom's voice was cold and cutting. "You didn't even know that your own father passed away, after all. I doubt you're shameless enough to demand more than what you've been given."Janice stood there, completely shattered. She felt the board members' contemptuous stares burning into her skin like fire."I understand," she managed. With that, she bolted from the room and stumbled home in a daze.Bruce was in the living room. He rushed over to her and asked, "Janice, why did you go to the company today? What happened?"She studied him quietly, catching the anxious glint in his eyes. Then, she said, "I've been stripped of my position, and my shares have all been transferred to Millie by my dad. I'm broke now. Bruce, will you still have me?""What? Your shares have been taken, and you've been sacked from the company?" Bruce practically exploded at her words. "How could this happen? You're the Grant family's sole heiress! How dare they do this to you? There has to be some kind of mistake,

Chapter 8

I spent three solid hours walking everyone through the development plan, laying out every detail of the company's roadmap for the next six years.When I finished, it was time for the board to vote. The motion passed unanimously. Just like that, our future direction was set."Now that the development plan is confirmed, let's talk about the matter of ownership," I said calmly, signaling my assistant to hand out documents to each board member. "These are my father-in-law's and mother-in-law's wills, along with the notarized certifications."All of their shares will be left to my daughter, Millie Stark. She will be the company's sole heiress. Until she reaches adulthood, I'll act as her legal guardian and manage the company on her behalf. Does anyone have any objections?"Tom shook his head. "We all trust your ability. No objections."After the meeting, I went back to my office to get some work done. A few minutes later, Janice barged in without knocking. Her eyes were reddened as she
