After finishing his breakfast, Andrew received a call from his assistant. "I've investigated the matter you inquired about, Mr. Spencer. Would you like me to email the information to you, or would you prefer a verbal report?"Wiping the corner of his mouth in the dining room, Andrew responded calmly, "I have time right now.""Alright," his assistant replied, summarizing the situation concisely. He had worked with Andrew for many years and was skilled at explaining complex matters clearly. "Mr. Spencer, that's the gist of it.""I get it," Andrew said, sounding a bit cold.The assistant paused, then whispered, "Your brothers are cheering up your sister. Want to join in?""That's silly," Andrew replied.The assistant started, "But you're—"Andrew cut him off, "It's okay. Just share it using my personal account.""Wait, what?" the assistant asked, sounding confused."Forget it. I'll do it myself," Andrew said.The assistant did not know what to say."That's it." Andrew ended the
"Huh, the project failed? Are you thinking I'm not going to sue you? You know you can't afford to mess up with my money on the line," said Caleb."I'm really sorry about the project, Mr. Spencer, but—""Look, you need to recheck your plans and try again. If you mess up once more," Caleb in a sharp black suit paused, his face cold and stern, "you might as well shut down your company." He locked his fingers together and looked at the other person with a smile that did not reach his eyes.The man felt like his legs were going to give out, and he almost passed out. "Please, Mr. Spencer..."But Caleb, not showing any emotion, got up from his chair. He straightened his collar and said coldly, "Get him out of here."His secretary stepped forward. "Sir, it's time for you to leave."The man did not want to leave, but he knew Caleb had a short temper, so he did not argue and left quickly.Once the man was gone, Caleb looked disgusted. "Can't do anything right, and always crying about it,"
Elon replied with a smiley emoji.When Caleb saw that emoji, he could almost picture Elon with his glasses on, grinning with a sly look on his face. Just thinking about it gave Caleb the creeps. Even though they were family, Caleb felt that Elon, who looked so smart and fancy, was actually sneaky and tricky, and that scared him.The internet was buzzing with excitement. Famous people were popping up one after another, making the story bigger and bigger. Just when everyone thought the last brother had revealed himself, another one showed up, saying he was also Wyneth's sibling.At first, people were just watching because it was fun, and fans wanted to know the truth. But later, it was more than just having fun or finding the truth. People were watching a bunch of brothers showing off their sister. They could not wait to step in and looked super proud. One minute, everyone on the internet was mad at Wyneth. The next, she had six tough brothers to stand up for her. Even if she was not
People were guessing again about who the parents were. They even thought the parents might show up like the brothers did. After waiting for a long time, there was still no news. But they were not disappointed. In fact, they were super excited and could not sit still, like they had too much sugar.[Hey, does anyone else feel what I feel? The longer there's no news, the more excited I get. Ahh!][I totally get you. I feel the exact same way.][High five to the person above!]People were getting more and more excited, but not everyone felt the same way. While most of the internet was buzzing with excitement, some were worried. Many people, including celebrities from various industries, were paying attention to the situation.Serena was one of those celebrities.When Serena first heard about the news, she had a feeling something was not right. She remembered seeing Hayden shield a woman from view in an elevator and even warning her when she left. This made it clear how much Hayden ca
Emma could not believe the post, no matter how many times she read it. Her heart sank. 'Siblings? How can they be siblings? If they are, what should I do about all my hard work?'"How can this be?" Emma's assistant said, looking at her own phone and feeling confused. "Emma, they're siblings? So all of this was for nothing?"Emma felt even worse when she heard her assistant's voice. She was about to say something, but her assistant suddenly exclaimed, "Wow, Emma! Singer Finn just shared Bruce's post and confirmed they're siblings!""What?" Emma thought she had heard wrong and quickly leaned over. The assistant handed her the phone."Look, Emma, he just shared it," the assistant said, even clicking on it to show that it was really Finn's Facebook page. "How is this possible? Both Finn and Bruce are Wyneth's brothers? But why do they have different last names?""Maybe their parents divorced," Emma blurted. "The brothers kept their dad's last name, and Wyneth took her mom's."Her ass
Emma quickly calmed down. She knew she had to stay cool, especially after what had already happened. With her assistant right next to her, she had to be careful not to make more mistakes. Emma looked at her and smiled again. "You're right, just like you said. Was I scary? I'm sorry, my temper sometimes gets the best of me. Please don't be mad."The assistant was surprised but quickly shook her head. "It's okay, Emma."Actually, she scoffed at Emma's sudden change in attitude. Emma probably thought she would turn against her and tell everyone her secrets. But the assistant knew she could not do that. If she went around telling people, she would never get a job in this business again. Celebrities wanted assistants who would not share their secrets. Being unable to keep secrets meant no star would hire you. Everyone had things they wanted to keep private. So, the assistant was not going to make that mistake.Emma gave a smile. "Please keep this a secret, okay?""Don't worry, Emma. I w
Luke did not say anything. He was too tired to talk. He closed his eyes and leaned back on the couch to take a break.Leo watched him for a moment and started to leave the room. But then he turned around and said, "Honestly, Luke, it's not a big deal. Wyneth, well, she..."Luke knew what Leo was going to say, and he frowned. He opened his eyes and looked a bit annoyed. "Weren't you just leaving?"Leo stopped talking. 'Okay, I'm being nosy. I should shut up. I'm only an assistant.' Then he quickly left.After Leo left, Luke could not stop feeling bothered. He kept wondering what was going on between Wyneth and Bruce. At the hotel, he saw Bruce taking off her shoes like he had done it before. That was not something regular friends do. Luke wanted to ask someone about it, but he did not have anyone to ask. Wyneth was out cold, and he did not know when she would wake up. So he sent her a message.Luke: [Text me when you wake up.]But since he came back to the hotel, he had not heard
'How can they be siblings?' Luke felt a rush of emotions he had never experienced before. He could not decide how to feel about Wyneth being related to his archenemy. Part of him felt it was wrong, while another part thought it was fine. As he tried to make sense of his feelings, he realized something was growing in his heart, something he could not quite understand or control.Today was probably the most exciting day in the entertainment world. Internet users could not get enough of the gossip about Wyneth and her six brothers, eagerly switching between stories and updates.Meanwhile, the international scene was much calmer.In the hotel's presidential suite, the bathroom was filled with the sound of running water. Dexter had just hung up Hayden's organized clothes in the closet when the doorbell rang. He opened the door to find two striking women with blonde hair and blue eyes waiting outside."Who are you?" Dexter asked.But before he could say more, the two women threw him sed
"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
Everyone rushed to check out Wyneth's Facebook and, sure enough, they saw her admitting to the relationship, along with a freshly taken selfie.At first, Wyneth only wanted to write a post. But after Hayden tasted the joy of going public with their relationship, he suggested taking a wefie for the official announcement. Feeling his excitement, Wyneth agreed. They posted the wefie on Facebook, captioned "Officially Together". Yet, Hayden was not done. He captured another photo, this time holding her hand, eager to share their love with the world.Since Hayden was not a celebrity or idol, he had no fan feelings to fret over. Eager to declare his love, he did not hold back. His photo captured his sharp features and dark, gem-like eyes that shone under the camera lights. The image showcased his palm holding Wyneth's fair, slender hand. Their contrasting hands highlighted his affection, radiating warmly from the photo.After the photo came out, everyone was shocked. This included fans, p
