After Caroline left, the crowd dispersed. Betty didn't feel like playing poker anymore. So she dragged Marietta out to the garden to bask in the sun. "It feels so nice to be in the sun, especially at this time. It's so warm," Betty commented while squinting to see the sun. After a moment, she turned to Marietta, asking, "Do you know what's on my mind right now?"Marietta quietly stared at her, waiting for her to continue. As expected, in the next second, Betty said, "I'm thinking about Carrie."She added, "She always reminds me of the sun's comforting warmth. She has a way of bringing a sense of comfort to people.""You're right. Speaking of which …" Marietta replied while squinting. She seemed to have recalled a beautiful memory as a faint smile formed on her face. "For a while, I wished Carrie was my child. Unfortunately, that's just not our destiny."Betty, who was sitting on the recliner, immediately sat up. She glanced around. After seeing no one else was around, she a

"If this goes on, something will happen sooner or later. You're smart, so you should know it better than I do." After saying that, Betty gently patted Marietta's shoulder. Then, she sighed softly and left.When Betty entered the room, she was surprised to see Sean standing by the window. She clutched her chest before exclaiming, "You scared me!""How did it go?" Sean asked while looking out the window."I don't know. I have already shared my thoughts with her," answered Betty. She stared at Marietta's figure and couldn't help but let out another sigh. "She used to be such an energetic person. Yet she has become haggard because of her daughter. I wonder if bringing her daughter back was the right choice."Sean didn't respond. Right then, they heard footsteps coming from the stairs. They both turned around simultaneously and saw Caroline and Kirk descending from the second floor.Betty noticed Caroline's hurried steps. "What's wrong?" she inquired with concern. Just as Carolin

Sean was still complaining when they reached the airport.However, when he saw Gwen emerging from the crowd, he was overwhelmed with emotions. At the same time, he felt a surge of adrenaline."Gwen!" Sean couldn't believe his eyes. For a moment, he felt like he was in a dream. He rushed forward and tightly embraced Gwen. Only then did he believe it wasn't a dream but a reality. Gwen had finally come to the country where he had grown up! Meanwhile, Gwen was taken aback. She hadn't expected Sean to hug her in front of so many people.As more and more people looked at them, she blushed and hit Sean's shoulder. "Put me down first. Let me down! So many people are watching."After a while, he finally let go of her. With a mix of excitement and anticipation, he gazed at her. "Why are you here? Is it—""I'm here on a work trip. So I thought I might as well take the opportunity to visit Carol," Gwen replied. She noticed Sean's disappointed expression. Then, almost instinctively,

Betty's blood boiled with excitement.Sean introduced them to each other. "Mom, this is my friend Gwen. Gwen, this is my mom.""Hello, Mrs. Yates Senior."As Betty carefully looked Gwen over, her lips slowly curled into a smile. The more she looked at Gwen, the happier she became. In particular, she was pleased at how her son referred to Gwen as his friend. "Gwen, right? You must be tired after getting off the plane. Come in! Go get some rest."As Betty pulled Gwen into the house, Gwen turned back to Sean and the others for help. However, they simply smiled at her and didn't say anything."I'm going home now. Enjoy catching up with your best friend." Kirk gently patted Caroline's head. Ever since he had found out that Caroline wasn't averse to physical contact, he would touch her from time to time.Caroline didn't notice this, but Kirk did. She was unguarded against him. This discovery had been enough to keep him awake for several nights.Caroline watched Kirk leave before r

Betty couldn't believe her ears. Although she occasionally gave Sean verbal jabs, he was still her son. She knew very well how talented he was.Sean was a respected figure in the medical industry and was the best in his field. Moreover, he was from the Yates family. He was rich, handsome, and knowledgeable.It wasn't an exaggeration to say that there was a very long line of people waiting to marry him. But Gwen didn't want to marry her son?"Mom, just don't ask," Sean said, guessing what Betty's next question was. "I'll deal with this myself." Betty didn't believe his words. "Are you sure?""I would be a laughingstock if I couldn't even get a wife on my own."Hearing his words, Betty happily patted Sean on the shoulder. "All right, you have ambition, as expected of my son. If you have any problems, just let me know. I'll definitely help you.""All right, all right. I get it. You can leave, Mom." Sean pushed Betty out of the study.After Betty left, Sean shook his head helple

After a brief moment, the two of them collapsed on the ground, panting.Gwen leaned against the door panel. "You've gotten out of practice after being away for so long."Ignoring Gwen's mockery, Sean leaned on her shoulder. "How long do you plan on staying here?"Gwen's breathing slowly evened out. "I'll leave as soon as the project is complete." After a pause, she asked, "What's going on with Carol? She can actually meet Marietta now. Also, what's happening with Kirk?"Sean stared at Gwen intently.Gwen felt her heart pound at his gaze. "What's wrong?""I can't believe you're only asking about Caroline and not how I have been during this time." Sean's voice was gentle and soft, without a hint of resentment. However, it made Gwen feel like a scumbag."I … How have you been doing?"Sean smirked. He had a gentle look in his eyes, but they had a hint of cunning. "Not so good."Gwen asked, "Why not?""I thought about you every day, but I couldn't even see you. Did you think I w

Yvonne had returned home after getting humiliated by Caroline at the poker game. In a fit of rage, she tore all the clothes on her bed into pieces to vent her anger. After she was done, she remembered what Marietta had said on the way home.On the way, she had whined to Marietta, wanting her to help pay the ten million dollars. But to her surprise, Marietta had rejected her requests for the first time. She even said, "Yvonne, you're no longer a child. You need to learn how to take responsibility for your actions."The implication behind her words was clear. She wouldn't help Yvonne pay that amount of money.Yvonne had wanted to snap at Marietta, but when she had seen the latter's resolute expression, she realized she wasn't joking. If she and Marietta fell out, everything she had might be taken away.A fear that Yvonne had never felt crept into her heart, so she had no choice but to reluctantly agree, "All right, Mom. I'll figure this out myself."Now that she recalled everyth

By the time the Shadowers discovered that Caroline had been shot, it would already be too late.Yvonne found it hard to agree. "But after what happened last time, both Caroline and the Yates family have become more cautious. I don't think they'll show up that easily."A small smile appeared on Avery's face. "Ha! Caroline's best friend is here to visit her. I doubt she will decline an invitation from her best friend."Yvonne's eyes lit up at her words. "Then, do I need to do anything?"A hint of murderous intent appeared in Avery's gaze. "Of course. You need to …" After thoroughly explaining what Yvonne needed to do, she hung up the phone.Holding her phone, she looked over at Finn, who was smiling half-heartedly at her. She frowned. "Go on, make fun of me. I know you have plenty of comments about this."Finn put his legs on the table. After observing Avery, he said with a smile, "Oh, Avery, I won't make fun of you. Since I see myself in you, I would just be making fun of myself
