After all, of all the sons and daughters of the many branches of the Winters family, he, Jim, wasn't the most stable or the one with the most business sense, and logically, Richard shouldn't have trusted him so much.

But over the years, Richard has favored him so much that even his daughter has been handpicked as the heir apparent.

Unfortunately, Sophie has really disappointed Richard with the things she's been doing lately, so the inheritance is up in the air again.

Evelyn, of course, didn't want to let go of this great opportunity; when she married into the Winters family, Richard hadn't been very nice to her because of what happened with the Dawn family until the last few years, when he started to ease up.

Jim's other side family members were sometimes even more sarcastic in their words, and she had long held a grudge in her heart.

Now that her own husband was being appreciated, and things with her daughter couldn't be put off, Sophie needed to be allowed to regain Richard's trust.

    Molly walked a long way before taking a deep drag on her cigarette and skillfully exhaling a ring of smoke.You can't exhale such a perfect smoke ring unless you've been smoking for more than five years.Not far from her, the man was still waiting, still with the wolf at his side."You came at a good time."Her voice was a bit sarcastic as she slowly finished her cigarette and threw it away, the butt flying into a trash can not far away.The man looked behind her, "Thinking about it?"Molly leaned over and tapped the wolf's head, "Think about it."The man came closer, saw her face on the verge of tears, and grunted coldly, "What's so good about feelings, that man doesn't look very good either, at least as bad as the owner.""Got a cigarette?" Molly looked up and held out her hand.Her hands were full of calluses, much rougher than the man's.The man took out his cigarettes, placed them on her lips himself, and lit them for her.Molly took a drag and looked at the spot not far from whe

    "I remember making it very clear at the time that it was an accident, and I credited you with the money, so don't bother me, you know, I don't like women bothering me."He was notorious for getting out of bed and going two for two, and it was just this girl who kept pestering him like a piece of cowhide.Serena stood silently, saying nothing.The girl was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a pair of almond eyes that were wide open and now filled with tears."But you said you liked me very much."Jordan smiled, and the smile was genuine, "You look cute, of course I like that, I also like flirtatious, coquettish, shy, in short, beautiful women, I like them all, it's just that my tastes have changed now, see? And I never eat back".The girl probably didn't expect him to say it so clearly, and her tears flowed even harder, "You bastard! Big scumbag!!!"Jordan frowned, "Isn't it always about what you want? How come he's the scum of the earth?And he gave her ten million dollars plu

    Serena leaned around the corner for a long time, almost looking through Bard's body, and couldn't tell that this was a woman beater of a man.She was almost instantly certain that there must be something bitter about what had happened.She was about to walk over when she saw another woman come out of the room, full of vitriol."Why are you still standing here? What's the use of reading so many books! In the end, it is not mixed to this place, these years in my family to eat our, drink our, the result is to do a thing like procrastination! This afternoon, wash the pile of clothes, and sweep the floor of the house, and you also help to deal with things in the factory, do not really think of yourself as a member of this family!"Bard's face was full of stoicism, and his eyebrows were furiously raised before he finally spoke."Sister-in-law, I borrowed the money to buy this house for my brother in the first place, and it's no crime for me to live here."The woman's face flamed with anger,

    That's why people from the outside world say that the residents of Castle Rock Lane lived in coffins a long time ago; after all, only coffins are so cramped.Serena had just taken a step when a huge wave of unease suddenly swept through her body, and when she looked up, she realized that a blackened gun was pointed at her not far away.The man's eyes were full of bloodlust and fierceness, and she was almost certain that she was really going to die.Her body couldn't move at all under the immense tension, as if she had been nailed to the ground.The more anxious you are, the less you can move."Bang!"She heard the sound of a bullet going off and almost unconsciously closed her eyes.But a man's chest burst open, shielding her tightly underneath, and rolled around with her in his arms.Serena's nostrils were filled with blood, thick and pungent.She tilted her head to see Jordan's pale face."I suddenly regret it."Only he knows what he regrets.Serena just thinks he's lost a lot of bl

    Serena took ten thousand dollars straight out of her bag and put it in front of the woman, "I'm Uncle Bard's neighbor and I have something for him, just for one afternoon."Seeing the money, the woman took it without hesitation and looked at Bard sarcastically, "I really didn't think that you had such a rich neighbor, Bard, it seems that you were really confused at first, but it's a pity that you were tricked by a woman and that your books were read to a dog!"Bard's face was flushed and he didn't make a sound, his eyebrows filled with concealment.Serena hurriedly took the man with her and didn't stay behind.Bard was a man and recognized the limousine parked outside at a glance, the whole person suddenly became formal, "Why are you looking for me?""Uncle Bard, don't be nervous, I'm just curious about what happened back then, let's find a restaurant and talk slowly."Bard pursed his lips and got into the car, not daring to move at all, stirring his palms awkwardly.He had once been

    But Serena had risen, her face firm, "Uncle Bard, a little self-respect is nothing when it comes to food and clothing, take it, you live in this world, and dying to save face is a sin."Bard's face flushed and she gritted her teeth, putting the money in her pocket, "Thank you."Serena left quickly, what was Matthew doing calling her? It was rare that the man called her."I'll be right back, let's discuss everything in person."She said, sensing that the man wasn't very happy.It was an hour later when they returned to Pines Ridge, and Matthew, waiting on the couch, had almost lost his patience.His eyes swept over Serena's body, his brow furrowed and his lips curled into a knife when he noticed her two empty palms.Serena shivered at the sight of him and tried to remember if she'd done anything wrong today.But she had been very good today and hadn't done anything to offend him."What's wrong with you?"Matthew's frown lightened a bit at the sound of "husband," but it was clear that h

    Serena didn't know what to say, it was useless to persuade anyone.She could understand Molly, if someone suddenly told her that Matthew had had an accident, she was afraid that she wouldn't be in a better situation than the other person.Molly's eyes reddened as she pushed her away, "I want some peace and quiet."With that, she got into a side car.Serena stood in place for a moment, watching the car go out of sight before she sighed heavily.Footsteps appeared behind her, footsteps she was already familiar with, it was Oscar."Thanks for taking me in these past few days, I'm moving out tonight."She said faintly, her heart hardening.Oscar didn't say anything and followed her to the car.The car stopped in front of the apartment and the two went inside together.Serena had very little, just a few sets of clothes, which she had packed before she left the house, and was able to leave with her suitcase in hand at this moment.But just as she was carrying the suitcase, an embrace sudden

    Serena thought that it might be Lorraine who had taken Richard hostage, but didn't realize that this woman was actually this ruthless.No wonder Matthew hadn't said a word just now and had been holding back.If he had said one more word, he might have received Richard's finger.Her brows wrinkled, Lorraine actually dared to go this farMatthew's people were definitely doing their best to search for Richard's whereabouts, but she was also concerned about what the other pinch was in Lorraine's hands.Oscar said that the only people who knew about it were Matthew and Lorraine, and there was obviously no way those two were going to tell the truth.She reaches up to rub her temples when she suddenly feels a warm coolness coming from her hand.She opened her eyes to find that Oscar had placed his hand over hers and was prying it away from her, pressing her temples himself.Serena froze and subconsciously had to duck."Stay still and close your eyes."His voice was gentle, and the force of h

    "I'm tired of being played?"Serena braced herself, no matter what, she didn't want to lose in front of Lorraine.She glanced up at Matthew and could clearly sense Matthew's dislike for Lorraine, a dislike that was shallow but she still detected it.He clearly disliked Lorraine, yet he allowed Lorraine to act recklessly in front of him, how did he look like he had a handle on Lorraine, and this handle was not usually small.Serena's mind was spinning fast, she couldn't believe that Matthew would say love so easily, let alone that he would say no so easily.She pursed her lips and tried to think about what had happened during this period of time, and the only thing that Matthew was holding onto was Richard abroad.Not long ago, I heard that Richard was still in resuscitation, could it be that Lorraine's people had taken Richard hostage?With Lorraine's character, it's not that she can't do such a thing, her mind is meticulous, she must have held Matthew's handle, so she dares to be so

    Serena's voice wasn't intentionally lowered, and there were already plenty of people hiding around who wanted to hear the gossip.Matthew and Serena bumping into each other, that was the biggest gossip!How could everyone let go of this opportunity, and they all perked up their ears.Now that they heard Serena say that she was buying Infinity Realm's Boss for one night, everyone thought that she was finished, and Matthew would definitely be furious.After all, only a whore would be talked about by a woman like that, who was he, he was the high and mighty Prince!However, there are many women who secretly feel that Serena's words are very right, after all, Mira does like Matthew very much, but can't even touch a piece of other people's Matthew's clothes, and Serena not only slept with Matthew, but also slept with him for a whole year, how is it not a loss.Mira never dreamed Serena had such thick skin! That she could even say such a thing!She looked over at Matthew, quite upset, "Matt

    Lorraine didn't make a fool of herself by going up and climbing on Matthew's bandwagon; everyone would associate her with Matthew anyway if she was here tonight.She bowed her head, curled her lips in a smile, and left the place, going to the other side.There were a lot of people surrounding Matthew, but he didn't have the heart to deal with it.Out of the corner of his eye, he searched the crowd and quickly found Serena.He lowered his eyes faintly, his lips pursed a few inches tighter.In front of Serena stood a man, a man who was very good looking, similar to her age."Se..... ...Serena."He was so nervous that he stuttered a bit in his speech.Serena had been fuming when she heard her name being called and looked up in a hurry.She really didn't remember much about her classmates, so she couldn't recall this one's name for a moment, and could only smile in a friendly manner, "Is something wrong?""You're single now aren't you?"The man looked like he had gathered a lot of courage

    Yeah, so many people in Hustleburg were waiting to taunt her, and this centennial celebration was sure to be a great one.She was definitely missing out on a lot of gossip if she didn't go.Serena hung her head and glanced at the dress, a very classy style, Oscar had a good eye."How much?"She took refuge in someone else's place, ate from them, used them, and how could she be ashamed to accept another gift from him.Oscar raised an eyebrow and didn't answer.Serena took out a card from her own pocket, "Don't you forget, I'm a rich woman now, I divorced Matthew and he gave me quite a lot of things, this card is my own, I've already forgotten how much is in it, let's consider it as this dress and my rent? I'm moving out after the school festival, I can't live here all the time."Oscar didn't squirm and took the card, "Good."If he didn't take it, she would be panicked instead, and being more open about it would make her feel better about living here.Serena sighed with relief, and went

    Oscar's fingertips lurched and patted her head, "I'm going to go make dinner, you can cry if you want to, and put it down for now after you've cried."With that said, he got up and retraced his steps back to the kitchen.Serena hugged over a pillow and crooked herself on the couch, staring at the ceiling in disbelief.Exhaustion instantly flooded her, and she leaned over and fell right back to sleep.Oscar made dinner and when he saw her asleep, he took the blanket from the side and covered her.Instead of waking her, he warmed the few small dishes he had made and sat quietly, waiting for her to wake up.Serena had a long sleep, she hadn't dreamed of Mary in a long time, and for once she actually did.She seems to have found someone to talk to, all the pretense instantly put down, buried in each other's arms, a strong cry.Serena's dream was a long one, and she woke up to see the unfamiliar furnishings around her and hurriedly braced herself.She was sleeping in Oscar's bed.His room

    With every word he said, Serena felt like she was being poked in the heart.She wanted to try and ignore everything that had happened last night, but the more she tried to forget, the more the scene became etched in her mind.Oscar closed the window behind him and turned to look at her faintly, "What are you going to do next?"Serena didn't answer because she hadn't figured out what she was going to do either.It had happened so suddenly that it was still a bit of a shock."Get out of here first, the hotel security can only stop them for a while, when the reporters rush up, you won't be able to leave."Serena didn't think much of it and immediately packed up and left the hotel.She got into Oscar's car, the windows were closed so the reporters didn't realize she had left.Serena looked outside, her nose sniffing the scent of his ink if anything.He should be drawing and practicing at home a lot or he wouldn't have this natural scent on him at all times."Did Matthew send you?"That sc

    She found the box in the bedroom and simply packed a few clothes in.When the servant saw her like this, he still spoke respectfully, "Madam, you have too many things, I can have someone send them to you."Serena acted as if she didn't hear it, she was holding her breath now."Where do I have anything, when I married here, I only brought a few pieces of clothing."In fact, she wanted to be like any other woman, to stick around and not leave, or to stalk and barricade herself against him, but her dignity would not allow her to do so.She ignored her physical exhaustion and took a small suitcase out of Pines Ridge.She didn't ask her driver to drive her away, but walked the distance herself and took a cab.The news was all over the place about her divorce from Matthew and there were pictures released of Matthew dating someone else.Overnight, it was like she fell from heaven to hell.She had no place to go and had just gotten out of the rental when Scarlett called, calling Matthew insid
