Mr. Summers had no intention to argue with him. He nodded and said “I’m sorry” before turning around and leaving in a hurry.He did not leave the main building immediately, though. He rushed into the first floor’s washroom instead.Mr. Oakes called out, “Why are you in a hurry? Slow down, Mr. Summers.”“I have a stomach ache. Can’t hold it in much longer.” Mr. Summers flashed an apologetic smile, quickly covered his stomach with his hands, and rushed into the washroom to hide.As soon as he
Old Master Stewart lost consciousness from a cerebral hemorrhage. Did Sean have doubts when he first heard about it?Naturally, for a moment there, he did doubt the legitimacy of the news.At the thought of Old Master Stewart’s medical history, however, his cerebral hemorrhage was a well-grounded fact.“Go a bit quicker.”The man on the backseat started urging.Sweat seeped out of Dos’ forehead. He was fully focused on driving.The sound of a car braking rang out.“We’re here, Boss.”Dos words had just left his lips when the man on the backseat was already getting out of the car.Sean glanced at the message sent by Old Master Stewart’s old butler. With wind under his feet, he turned to another direction and hurried to the emergency room. “You’re finally here, Young Master.” A bunch of people was waiting outside the emergency room.Sean gave a quick scan around, and his gaze fell on the old butler working at the Stewart Old Manor. “How’s Grandpa’s condition?”Like the Summe
The rustling sound was not loud at all. The old man did not pay attention to it and accidentally knocked over a crystal ornament on the table. His heart nearly leaped out as he picked it up carefully. Only after seeing that it was intact did he feel the weight lifting off his shoulders.He then looked at the door guiltily before slowly breathing out a sigh of relief.He was certain that no one would come at this time. The old man's movements were not rushed or flustered at all. Instead, he era
This raised Uno’s suspicions further. He glanced at the files and pushed Mr. Summers far away when he charged at him in an attempt to snatch the files back. “What’s this?”“It’s nothing!”“Nothing? Why did you sneak into Boss’ study then?” Uno did not believe him at all. It stood to reason that he should not read these documents, but Mr. Summers’ actions aroused his suspicions. Plus, he was curious to know exactly what could make the calm and steady Mr. Summers act so unlike himself.While pu
“That woman is now Mrs. Stewart… What’s left of Rosaline is just a jar of ashes… Rosaline is my only daughter, and she has gone to another world. All I want is to clean her name, hoping that she will always be that gentle, kind-hearted, but a little cowardly and innocent girl… Uno, I beg you! I’ll kowtow to you! You just need to act as though you’ve never seen or heard anything!“That woman has gotten what she wanted, hasn’t she?“Aren’t things great now? Everybody is happy. Not allowing Rosal
“What about Sir?” Mr. Oakes knew his limits. The person he had pledged loyalty to was the master of this house.Jane took her mobile phone out of her purse. Whilst making the call, she gave Mr. Oakes a faint smile and muttered, “Let me ask.”The call connected. She talked on the phone, expressing her intention to take a trip back to Dunn’s residence. She then suggested, “If you’re so worried, you can just ask Alora to come with me.”Mr. Oakes stood aside reverently throughout the call but was
Alora did not say anything. She listened in silence.“They told me that they regretted it and that they’ve made a mistake.” Jane wore a deadpan look on her face like she was telling a story in which she was not the protagonist of. “Time has passed and circumstances have changed. Where do I find the energy to continue squandering my time away with them?“If that’s what they think, so be it.“Madam Dunn, though, pulled me aside and told me something.“During the incident back then, Rosaline Su
The car arrived at Dunn residence and drove through the big iron gate. Jane got out of the car. “You can go back first, Alora. Madam Dunn and I are going to catch up on things.”Alora's beautiful eyes moved. Her gaze fell on Jane's lackluster face and chuckled. “No way. I can’t leave you with the Dunns alone. How am I going to explain it to Mr. Stewart?”Jane's throat tightened. “You…”“I’ll go in with you.” Whilst closing the car door, Alora walked calmly to Jane's side. She stretched out he
