All Chapters of The Choices We Made: Chapter 311 - Chapter 320

Zack continued with his explanation. "Julian isn't actually the ninth son. He's the oldest in his immediate family, but there are eight younger cousins in the extended family. That's why people outside the family call him Ninth Sullivan. "As for the two Harbor City families, they're a little less powerful than the first two. The Webb family practically owns Harbor City's nightlife. They run bars and nightclubs, and Michael himself is known as a playboy. To be honest, the Webbs are the richest of the four families, but a lot of their money comes from businesses they can't exactly advertise, and plenty of it gets spent keeping the right people happy. "Meanwhile, the Hall family made its fortune in real estate. The men who came today are the only sons of those two families. That tells you how seriously they take a relationship with the McQueen family." Zack's research proved accurate. A moment later, several members of the McQueen stepped forward to greet the arrivals. "Mr. Young,

The moment Channing saw Samantha, he desperately wanted to go to her. Then he saw Nathaniel's arm around her. Not only did Samantha not resist, she seemed completely infatuated with Nathaniel. No matter what Channing felt, Samantha was no longer his wife. Since he had publicly married Sydney, what right did he have to be angry that Samantha was with Nathaniel now? Channing was in so much pain that tears rolled down his cheeks. Samantha had loved him for eight years. Just as Zack had once said, Channing had never imagined she would really leave. Now he understood that Samantha had not only left him for good, she had found someone better than him. Panic swept through Channing. His thoughts became confused, and he instinctively reached for something to steady himself. Zack noticed and caught his arm. He then asked, "Do you still think she will come back to you, sir?" Zack never believed she would, and the reason was simple. Channing had treated her terribly. Once Samantha le

Katarina had already noticed how cold Nathaniel seemed while she was talking. He had not responded to her comments or offered any opinion, and had simply let her speak. At the time, Katarina had convinced herself that he was like everyone else, captivated enough to listen in silence. That was why she had pushed a little further. As far as she knew, Nathaniel had never married. She was still the woman his family had once promised him to, so Katarina believed she still had a chance. However, Nathaniel had said he only learned about the engagement after getting involved with Samantha. Now he knew. He had also met Katarina in person, surely that would change things. Instead, she discovered that Nathaniel had no intention of indulging her, the pampered young woman everyone else had spoiled since childhood. His rejection with a dismissive hand wave sent a surge of anger through her. Katarina had never been good at controlling her temper, and she was not going to control it. Her g

Nathaniel's voice remained steady as he spoke to Hunter. "I honestly don't remember the engagement, but I do remember calling the Young family a decade ago about a loan that was worth three hundred million Westland dollars. "Your father refused. He didn't give me the loan. In fact, he didn't give me a single cent. Can I take that to mean your family never considered me a future son-in-law all those years? So who owes who an explanation?" Hunter was stunned. He had known nothing about that. The other wealthy guests nearby also looked at the Young family. Given the family's resources, a few hundred million dollars was not much. Yet when Nathaniel had apparently needed help most, they had refused him completely. Now that he was successful, they seemed interested again. It made the Young family look opportunistic. While Hunter struggled for an answer, Nathaniel's expression softened. It was not the tenderness he showed Samantha, instead it was simply the courtesy he used with oth

Suddenly, screams came from the entrance of the banquet hall. Several uniformed officers stood in the doorway, with Sydney leading them inside. She wasted no time and pointed straight at Samantha. "It was her! She's the one who tied me up that day! You have to arrest her!" The entire hall went silent with shock. When the officers moved toward Samantha, Nathaniel reacted first. His bodyguards stepped in and blocked their path.The officers did not try to force their way through. They knew who Nathaniel was and understood the influence he held, so one of them addressed him directly. "Mr. McQueen, the woman with you is suspected of involvement in a rape case. We have witness statements and physical evidence. We need to bring her in for questioning. Please don't interfere." The room erupted. Only moments ago, Samantha had been presented to everyone as the future mistress of the estate. Now police were saying she might be connected to a serious criminal case. Samantha immedia
