He stood there, somewhat flustered, for a good while. Just as he began to inquire about the situation, Wyneth offered a slight smile before rising to her feet."Let's go then, breakfast awaits."As Lauren got up with her, she asked quietly, "Don't you need to put on some... stuff?""I've applied sunscreen," Wyneth replied."S-Sunscreen?" Lauren was at a loss for words, wanting to clarify that she had not been referring to sunscreen. But it was too late; she was already following Wyneth out.Once the pair met up with Harry, they were tailed by two cameramen. Seizing the opportunity, Harry asked in a hushed tone, "What just happened?""Wyneth didn't have any makeup on when the cameraman rushed in to snap a picture," Lauren whispered back.Upon hearing that, Harry's gaze instinctively fell on Wyneth's face. After examining her for a moment, he asked, a faint blush on his cheeks, "You're okay, right?"Before Wyneth could answer, Lauren quickly interjected, "She's perfectly fine. Ho

With a roguish grin, Harry said, "My mom always says, except when I'm writing songs, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed."That quickly ruled out three candidates, leaving just Derek and Wyneth. Though Derek was barely into his twenties, he exuded a sense of maturity and steadiness. As Wyneth's gaze fell on him, perhaps because it was just the two of them left, Derek was looking back at her. Just as he was about to speak, Wyneth softly suggested, saying, "You should be the team leader. I think you'd make a better team leader than me."Her words stopped Derek in his tracks. After a moment's pause, he nodded. "Alright."Henry scrutinized Derek carefully, nodding with satisfaction. "Good choice."The young man had displayed an impressive calm and steady demeanor since they met the previous day, making him the most suitable choice for team leader among them. Once the leader was chosen, they were handed a list of activities by the production crew, activities that were part of Mason an

As some wise man said, "Comparison is the thief of joy." After hearing the tasks assigned to the men, Lauren suddenly felt her chicken and duck feeding duty was a cakewalk. Afterward, Derek assigned Henry the simple chore of weeding. Henry accepted it readily. Given his age, it did not seem right to have him join in the cleanup of the fowl droppings.With everyone's roles decided, they set off.Wyneth was the first to rise. With her motion, several young men wielding cameras also stirred, causing a commotion that surprised the rest of the guests at the table. When they turned their heads, they saw a good four or five photographers hot on Wyneth's trail.While Lauren was puzzled, Harry, ever the blunt one, bellowed, "What are all of you following her for? Isn't it supposed to be one person per camera?"Derek was at a loss for words. Beside him, Mason chuckled. "It must be because she's pretty. They couldn't resist."The photographers stood frozen for a moment, then a few returned,

When he finished, something seemed to occur to him, and he turned to remind the crew. "During the editing process, make sure to include extra footage of her," he instructed.The production team nodded immediately. "Understood."This was, after all, someone Shaun had brought on board. Even though she did not have any works out yet, Shaun's eye for talent was notorious within the industry. When she had become a big star, their show would undoubtedly ride her coattails for a boost in popularity. Wyneth, oblivious to the particular attention she had garnered from the production crew, remained smiling, engaging, and strikingly beautiful in front of the camera. Her beauty was a feast for the eyes.The path was rough, littered with shards and jagged stones, but Wyneth had come prepared in sneakers, rendering the rugged terrain inconsequential. By the time she arrived, there were already people waiting for her in the pigpen. The farm was vast and the Ashers had a wide range of produce; the

Wyneth was gentle and candid. The team monitoring the footage nodded in satisfaction."Her response is perfect, balanced. If she denied the smell, she'd appear insincere, yet if she admitted it was foul, she'd be too blunt.""She reacts quickly."The more they observed Wyneth through the lens, the more they appreciated her.Meanwhile, Lauren was not faring so well. Having escaped pig-feeding duty, she was now on her way to feed the chickens and ducks. She had consumed these creatures, seen them on television, and even witnessed their slaughter during festivities in her childhood, so she figured the task should not be too challenging. But no sooner had she entered the chicken coop than she accidentally crushed an egg. She froze for a moment, slowly lowering her gaze. Then, she noticed the egg she had crushed, and a mother hen stared at her indignantly, rising to peck at her."Ahh!" Lauren screamed, "Mama Hen, I didn't mean to smash your little one!" With that, she turned and bolted

As he finished, Finn took out his phone and quickly sent a message through WhatsApp.Finn: [Hey, Wyneth, what's up? Fancy joining me for a trip abroad? Get a change of scene?]His flurry of messages was caught by Anna's vigilant eyes, and she rolled her own skyward in disbelief. "So, this is what you call being busy?""Even the busiest of work can't compare to my sister's importance." After sending his message, Finn frowned, noticing Wyneth's delayed response. "How come she's taking so long to reply? It's been minutes," he said, then, unable to restrain himself, he dialed Wyneth's number.Wyneth was in the midst of a Herculean struggle to lift a tray of pig food when Finn's call came in. Having forgotten to set her phone to vibrate, the melodious ringtone echoed, attracting everyone's attention. A pigpen worker turned to her, still blushing. "Your phone is ringing." He kindly took over her task. "Let me handle this."Thanking him, Wyneth took out her phone, a flicker of surprise i

Finn shot to his feet, while Anna remained seated, her demeanor calm and unflappable. "And so what? Even if she hung up on you for some other man, what could you do?" At her words, Finn faltered, deflating into his chair. She continued, "You're overly protective of her, but you're helpless. You think I don't know you after all these years?""What should I do?""Do what? The girl has grown up. She has her own ideas. As her brother, it's best if you keep out of it or else, she'll end up resenting you."Finn bristled at the words, quickly refuting them, "I can't care about her? I only have one sister—one I've spoiled since childhood. Can I really not care?""Fine, fine, go and meddle then." Anna turned her head away, deciding not to argue any further. When it came to his sister, Finn was always beyond reason.After a moment, Finn leaned toward Anna. "Will she really resent me?"Anna had no words.After hours of shooting, Wyneth's hair was a mess, and she was drenched in the scent o

She blinked and paused for a long while before finally mumbling, "My task was a failure. I accidentally broke an egg and got chased around all morning by a mother hen."Her words had just finished when a soft, girlish voice could be heard. "Be careful with the suitcases. They're filled with expensive things. Don't let them fall. If you break them, you won't be able to pay for it... Hey, that's an expensive suitcase I spent a good amount on. Can't you be more mindful? Don't drag it around; you'll damage the wheels!"Everyone turned to look. A girl, dressed in a red lace dress and balanced on a pair of high heels, was walking toward them with the help of an assistant. Her hair curled gently, her skin fair, showing she lived a pampered life.Several staff members struggled under the weight of her suitcases, faces growing red. One of them could not help but say, "Giada, these suitcases are really heavy. We can't carry them. Can we roll them instead?""No, if you break the wheels, will

"I heard," Hayden sighed, thinking she might tell him not to touch her."What do you think?" Wyneth asked."Me?" A small smile formed on Hayden's lips as he gently kissed her. "It's whatever you want."Wyneth's eyes sparkled. "So, you'll listen to me?"Hayden hesitated. "Except...""What?" Wyneth's tone shifted to annoyance. "You aren't backing out, right? You just said it's up to me.""It's not that I'm backing out," Hayden said, "I just have one condition. I'll listen to you any other time, but there's one thing I can't do.""What thing?" Wyneth asked.Hayden leaned in and whispered in her ear. Wyneth's face turned a shade of pink, and she pushed him away, gasping."You're such a creep!" she exclaimed.Hayden took her wrist, drawing her close and kissed her earlobe. "What's the matter? Isn't this okay for us? Don't you think so?" As he kissed her, he began to unbutton her collar. His voice was low and smooth. "Just listen to me this one time. For everything else, whatever y

On the ride home from the hotel, tears rolled down Wyneth's cheeks nonstop. This time, though, she was not alone by the car window. She was nestled in Hayden's arms. He wiped away each tear, comforting her all the way."Don't cry. It's just a mix-up, okay? He said he's fine and will be around for a long time," Hayden whispered.Despite his soothing words, Wyneth's tears did not cease. Seeing this, Hayden, filled with concern, gently asked, "Is this not what you wanted?"Confused, Wyneth looked up. "What are you talking about? I'm beyond happy he's alive."Hayden smiled, gently wiping her eyes. "Then why are you still crying?""I'm crying because..." Wyneth bit her lower lip, with Hector's words echoing in her mind.She had always been upset, believing her father had not wanted her years ago. But just as she was about to leave, Cindy pulled her aside. "Wyneth," her mother said gently, "your dad did want you. When I divorced him, I had just one demand.""What was it?""I wanted o

Everyone was silent. Just before entering the private dining room, Wyneth blurted out, "Is he really dying?" Hearing this, Andrew's steps halted. Before he could answer, she added, "How long does he have? Why didn't anyone say anything before?"Andrew sighed and turned around. "Is that why you're here?" Wyneth pursed her lips. A wave of uncertainty washed over Andrew. 'This mom and daughter,' he thought, 'they're here because they got it all wrong. Mom is acting differently toward Dad, too. She was all tough before, but now she's gone soft, probably thinks Dad is dying. And Dad? He's just laughing, like he's having a good time with all this mess.' Andrew hesitated, then said, "Let's talk inside." He chose to hold his words for now.Hayden and Wyneth walked into the private dining room. Cindy was passing dishes to Hector. As they entered, every pair of eyes turned their way. A divorced couple and six sons stared at Hayden. Used to the predictable world of leadership, Hayden now ventur

In the end, Wyneth decided to stay. She could see the honesty in Matilda's words and knew she was sincere. Recognizing Matilda as not her birth mother made Wyneth realize she should not hold her to the same expectations. With acceptance, she focused on building her future with Hayden, freeing herself from doubts and reservations.With Wyneth's decision to stay, Matilda's heart swelled with joy and immense honor. Realizing Wyneth's sincere intentions, not merely chasing the Hamilton family's wealth, transformed their relationship. Matilda's newfound warmth toward her was evident. Gifts, once withheld, now freely flowed into Wyneth's room. At auctions, Matilda eagerly bid on items for Wyneth. During jewelry store visits, Matilda generously bought her gifts, swiping her credit card without hesitation, and welcoming her nearly as a daughter.Wyneth received a call from her mother. Even after so many years, her mom, Cindy, was still bossy. "Your father isn't doing well. You should come to

Just at that moment, a knock sounded from outside."Sir, your mother is back," someone said.Hayden could feel the person in his arms stiffen, her body tensed. "Don't worry, I'm right here," he reassured her softly."Your mother heard that Ms. Walford is here. She wants to see her," the voice from outside continued.'Meet me?' Wyneth bit her lower lip lightly. 'Why does she want to see me? To insult me again?'"She hasn't eaten yet. She can meet her after eating," Hayden said, gently turning down the request for Wyneth. Outside, everything fell silent."Won't this offend your mom?" Wyneth's voice filled with concern as she asked.Hayden looked at Wyneth, pausing for a moment before speaking. "I know she's been mean to you," he said. Wyneth's eyes widened in surprise. "I'm sorry." He bent down and lightly kissed her forehead. "You've been treated unfairly." Seeing her blink, he added, "Let's eat first. After that, I'll go with you."Wyneth was a bit nervous, but not as anxious a

Hector was speechless as Cindy mistakenly thought he was ill. Seeing her worried face, he felt the misunderstanding might not be so terrible. He shared a look with Andrew. His eldest son caught on immediately, giving a subtle head shake. Understanding the signal not to mislead Cindy any further, Hector hesitated before gently asking, "Can I see her? Even just a glance?" It had been many years since he last saw his daughter up close, and she had not called him "Dad" in all that time.Cindy, lost in thought, stared at Hector before finally nodding as if admitting defeat. "Fine, I'll call her."Later, Wyneth fell asleep. Upon waking, she found herself on the large bed in Hayden's bedroom. She saw Hayden sitting at the sofa, busy with a computer.Hearing her movement, Hayden immediately got up and walked toward her. "Awake? Thirsty or hungry? Want something to eat first?"Having slept through lunch, Wyneth was hungry, so she nodded. "Sure."After Hayden left to give some instructions,

'He shifts moods so fast,' Wyneth thought as she stared at her unattended ringing phone.Observing her delay, Hayden asked, "What's going on?"In his mind, a thought flickered, 'She seems reluctant to take the call. Perhaps there's tension with her eldest brother?'"He's calling now; must be about him," Wyneth whispered."About your dad?"They had decided to be together, and Wyneth did not hide anything from him. "Yeah, my dad."Hayden did not utter a single word."I don't like him," Wyneth softly said, staring at her ringing phone. "Answer it for me and say I'm asleep," she whispered to Hayden as she cozied up to him. Without a word, Hayden picked up the phone and conveyed the message before ending the call.After ending the call, a curious Hector asked, "Well? Where is she?"Understanding the situation, Andrew said, "She didn't answer the phone; she's asleep."Despite hearing the words, Hector felt something was off. He sighed, "She really doesn't like me.""Don't worry, D

"Trouble recognizing faces? What do you mean?" Hector Spencer asked.Andrew sighed. "Dad, he's Wyneth's ex-husband."Hector's eyes widened in surprise. "He is? No wonder I didn't recognize him. I must've barely seen him before.""Is that what's bothering you?" Andrew asked."What else would it be?" Hector replied, still taken aback.Andrew sighed. His dad, Hector, was good at many things and never stayed mad at people. But there was one funny thing about him: he could never remember faces of people outside their family. "You don't mind?" Andrew asked.Smiling, Hector replied, "Mind what? She's told everyone, so she must be ready. I've never been the dad she favored. If I object now, won't she dislike me even more?"Andrew was left speechless by this. He had not expected Hector to have no objections. "Seems like someone doesn't need your approval."Changing the topic, Hector asked, "What about your mom? Is she back?" He had been living alone for many years.Andrew exhaled. "I t
