Thea gave her siblings a sharp look, and Kassidy quickly put Samuel down. The siblings hung their heads and stood obediently.Thea said, "Playing and making a fuss in front of the memorial hall, how improper!"Samuel secretly reached out his hand to touch his sister's palm.Kassidy couldn't help it and had a smile in her eyes.Samuel asked her, "Your biological father died, isn't your sister sad?"Kassidy asked, "What difference does it make if you're sad or not?"Samuel said, "Sister, if you are upset, treat me as a punching bag. I promise not to fight back or talk back. As long as you are happy, it's all that matters."Kassidy couldn't help but start again as she saw her handsome, adorable, and well-behaved little brother. She vigorously rubbed Samuel's face with both hands. "You're so good, how could your sister bear to hit you or scold you?"Thorne looked at his sister and brother with disbelief, "What did Mommy just say? How could she be so forgetful?"Kassidy quickly stood up an
Thea thought for a moment, and she didn't have any specific reason to stay. So she stood up, said goodbye to Thorne and the children, and left.Thorne sat in front of the oil lamp, flames flickering in his handsome black eyes. He silently prayed, "Nathan, our grievances should be settled now."After speaking, he took out a few iron coins from his pocket and scattered them. However, the symbolism of iron coins was very negative.Thorne sighed.At that time.Nathan in the coffin, his spirit separated from his flesh, his soul sat up. Breaking free from that hunched and aged body, he regained his youthful and handsome appearance.He glared at Thorne with a dark expression, his anger growing in his eyes. However, Thorne suddenly felt a chill down his spine, looked around, and his gaze landed directly above the coffin."Did you come?"Nathan was incredibly surprised, "You, can actually see me?"Thorne nodded. "Otherwise, what? Do you think I stayed behind to light a beacon for you? Just bec
"How should I choose? Who can tell me how to choose? Dad, Mom, I'm sorry, I have been a burden to you in this lifetime. In the next lifetime, I hope you won't encounter a son like me who is not capable. I don't deserve to be your son."Thorne sneered, "Since you are so clear-headed about your parents, can you also treat Thea and Kassidy with the same clarity?"Nathan couldn't make a decision and finally pleaded with Thorne, "I want to see Thea, one last time. Can I?"Thorne was extremely speechless.But he also knew that Nathan's debt to Thea and Kassidy was the reason his soul lingered in the human world. He had to be given an opportunity to fulfill his final wish before he could leave with peace of mind.Thorne said, "I could let you enter her dream, and you can say everything you want to say in the dream, but you only have this one chance.""Okay."Thorne picked up the copper coin from Thea and placed it above the coffin. The next second, Nathan found himself instantly transported
Thorne and Thea were kissing passionately, Nathan's eyes turned red, but in the end, he couldn't bear it and ran out.They finished kissing. Thea pleaded with Thorne, "Go and invite a high monk, find a way to send him away."Thorne said, "He was too obsessed, afraid that he couldn't easily let go.""What should we do?" Thea was really overwhelmed."I have a solution," Thorne said as he took out a jade pendant from his pocket and personally put it on Thea. "This is a talisman blessed by a high monk to ward off evil spirits. If you wear it, he won't be able to come near you."Thea asked, "Is it really that magical?"Thorne said, "Hmm."Not long after, Nathan calmed down and turned around to try to enter the room again, only to find that he couldn't get within a hundred steps of Thea.A huge halo threw him out, causing him to bend over in pain and howl. He lifted his head, looking sadly at the door, his eyes turning red over and over again."Isabella, shouldn't you have hated me?""What
Thorne's expression became stiff. Thea gently touched his chin with her finger and said with a smile, "What are you nervous about?"Thorne said, "I was just thinking, I loved you so much that I would have done many unconventional things to win you over. Back then, could Thea have forgiven me?"He rested his head on her shoulder and said, "Thea, don't reject me..."Thea remembered that dream, her eyes turning red. "You must have gone through a lot of hardships to come to me. How could I easily give up on you when you never gave up on me?"Outside the door, Samuel and Kassidy poked their heads in. Drake walked in and, with one hand each, carried them away."You two little rascals, can't your father and mother have some personal space?"Kassidy quickly defended with a smile, "Uncle, don't be like this, we weren't peeping on Mom and Dad, we were looking for them for something."Drake put them down and crossed his arms, saying, "You can also come to Uncle if you need anything."Kassidy inq
Kassidy approached Thorne and knelt down, clutching his thigh, wailing, "Daddy, you must help me. I am in big trouble this time."Thorne couldn't help but laugh and cry, "You've always been brave, why are you so scared today? Come on, tell me, what kind of trouble did you get into?""I just made a pot of soup and ended up sending the boy I like and his family to the hospital. Now my mom knows about it and she's furious at the hospital. She wants me to go there immediately and take responsibility," Kassidy sobbed.Thorne's face twitched, “Soup? That kid is quite lucky. What virtue and ability does he have to actually earn your favor? Allowing you to personally cook for him?"Kassidy cried and said, "Daddy, what time is it? Please stop mocking me. Please help me think of a solution quickly."Thorne pulled her up and said, "Daddy will accompany you to the hospital, let's go."Kassidy finally mustered the courage to face Thea.One hour later.Kassidy and Thorne appeared in the ward.Thea
The wild ghost said, "Then you just stay in the place where you died and find a few more substitutes. When they are close to death, you can absorb their last breath of yang energy. After a while, you will gain the power to interfere with the mortal world."After hearing this news, Nathan felt an inexplicable surge of restlessness in his chest. The cells in his cerebral cortex seemed to be surging as well, as if some truth was about to burst forth, but in the end, he couldn't figure out what it was.He was just hesitant, “Is this too cruel? I owe Isabella, just because I hurt her. But if I were to harm other people's lives in order to make up for my debt to her, it seems inappropriate."The ghost patted his shoulder and said, "You think it through yourself."Nathan stood by the side of the street, looking at the constant flow of cars passing by. He felt lost.Until he saw the entrance of the hospital, Thorne and his daughter Kassidy walked out with Samuel, talking and laughing.Kassidy
Nathan also lowered his head in shame. "My title as the No. 1 President is truly undeserved. Firstly, my time in office was very short-lived, and secondly, it was due to the glory of my family rather than any personal achievements. When I inherited the Hill family's business, as the most genuine successor among the top four prestigious families, only then did I receive this honor."The ghost with the green eyes seemed to understand something, “No wonder you have the destiny of a No. 1 President, but not the luck of a No. 1 President. It's because in your destiny, there is a truly genuine No. 1 President, a truly genuine No. 1 President, who is bound to be exceptionally intelligent, with immense power and either wealthy or noble."Nathan said, "Currently, the Capital does not have the character you mentioned."The ghost also echoed, "Indeed, the Capital, which is now being managed by a little girl, has become a waste. Alas, it's such a pity.""Hmph, you guys don't know about this. That
Samuel howled, "But I didn't want to accept it."It was late.Drake came in holding a roster. He opened the roster, which had photos of the blind date participants - some with makeup, some without, as well as candid shots and work photos. It also contained the archival records of the individuals from birth until now."Please take a look."Kassidy eagerly took the boys' roster, while Samuel held the girls' roster and they both started flipping through them."Wow. They're all so good." Kassidy exclaimed enthusiastically, "So handsome and talented... I like every one of them. Except for this rich young man... What a nickname, 'Foodie'? This photo must have been photoshopped, definitely a chubby person..."She threw the roster to Drake, "Everyone except him."Drake smirked.Samuel pouted and said, "This chest is too small.""This hair color was too yellow." "This leg was a bit thick.""This waist would be perfect if i
Eric returned home and only then did he realize that his mother, Hana, had already been discharged from the hospital. Ingrid's attitude towards him had become much colder. In fact, she even showed a hint of disgust towards him."Eric, where have you been hiding these days when mom had a car accident and was hospitalized?"Eric, with the postoperative sequelae, was very weak and feeble, saying, "I had a little accident..."Hana finally noticed something unusual about her son, “What's wrong with you?"Eric lifted up the hem of his shirt, revealing the surgical scar on his lower back. "I had my kidney taken away by someone."Hana's pupils dilated, filled with fear. "How could this happen?"Eric closed his eyes in pain and said, "This matter is hard to put into words."Ingrid, who was skilled in calculations, immediately realized that the value of Eric's utilization had been discounted."You were not feeling well now, so will you b
Eric said, "Kassidy, please stop talking. I believe this wasn't done by you. Your character is just like your mother's, both of you are honest and kind people, who would never stoop to such despicable means."He lowered his head in shame and said, "I am getting what I deserved."Kassidy stared at Eric expressionlessly. It was strange, as once she had faced Nathan's myriad of turbulent and grand emotions, but now she was calm like dead ashes.In the end, she simply said, "I didn't mean to not save you. I truly didn't realize how difficult your situation was."With boundless hatred towards that man, Emma pleaded with Kassidy, "So now, could you please help us seek justice?" Despite the pleading tone, her voice was firm, tinged with a hint of reluctant inexperience.Kassidy stared at her coldly and said, "Why should I help you?"Emma was stunned, and then her little face turned bright red.Yeah, why did Kassidy save her?She shoul
Emma trembled as she asked, "Which place do you want?"The man's gaze fell on Eric's waist, “Kidney."Eric couldn't help but feel a chill run through his entire body, as if every nerve was connected to his heart. A sense of unbearable despair washed over him from his heart."I disagreed," Eric roared.The man looked at him with an increasingly cold gaze, “My son was sick. He was the same age as you all, but he developed kidney failure at such a young age. The doctor said he must have surgery as soon as possible, otherwise he won't survive this year. I won't let him die, so I must find a suitable kidney source for him... As long as he can live, I don't care about breaking the law..."Eric shouted impatiently, "You idiot, not everyone's kidney is suitable for him. If we give him our kidney, it could cause rejection, and your son would die even faster."Snap-The man slapped Eric in the face and menacingly said, "How dare you curse my so
The man's face darkened, and his eyes, filled with a predatory gaze, stared at Eric. "You wouldn't be deceiving me, would you? Eric, do you realize the consequences of deceiving me?"Eric was speechless, he was dumbfounded by the man's lack of intelligence. "My phone is in your hands, I didn't have time to tamper with it. Kassidy's phone number has always been stored in my phone. If you can't reach her, it's probably because her phone is currently with her."The man thought for a moment and felt that what he said made some sense. Then he took a deep breath and said, "Then I'll give you another fifteen minutes. If Kassidy doesn't call to confirm that you have some relationship with her, then I won't be polite to you."Time passed by minute by minute.Eric's heart grew more and more anxious. He didn't know if Kassidy would call back in such a short amount of time.As the moment of the clock was about to end, Eric's phone rang. Eric let out a sigh of
Eric looked at the screen, but Samuel's words kept echoing in his ears. Suddenly, he fell to his knees, covering his face with both hands, tears and rainwater streaming through his fingers.Yes, Isabella has always been well. She was strong and optimistic, born in adversity but with a heart to overcome obstacles. She was loyal to love and loyal to her family, so she could receive selfless love from her family.Isabella, who was so good, was looked down upon by him in his past life. Now, as he finds himself trapped in a quagmire and realizes the hardships Isabella went through, he discovers that he cannot be as good as her at all. Eric is overwhelmed with shame.He deeply realized that he was not worthy of Isabella.However, Eric soon emerged from the melancholy of lost love. He had to save Emma, and the longer he delayed, the greater the danger she faced.He got up and ran hard.This time, he couldn't help but run for a long ti
Thea suddenly touched her face and said, "Your mother was young and still had her charm. If she had married a middle-aged man who was a good match for her, they could have built a marriage together. Maybe they could have lived a comfortable and peaceful life. But your mother insisted on flattering William and indulging in unrealistic dreams. In the end, she lost both her dignity and her wealth.""Ingrid, remember my words well: Be down-to-earth and work hard in life. Don't try to take shortcuts, as those who seek to gain without effort will not have a good outcome.""By the way, also tell Eric these words."Thea finished speaking and left gracefully.Little did she know, Eric, hiding in the stairwell, understood her words perfectly. He was now caught in a dilemma: a grounded life?Can he still reach the height of his past life?After Hana was discharged from the hospital, faced with a large amount of compensation money, she had no choice but
Hana was so angry that she trembled all over, "I never expected you rich people to be so unreasonable and heartless."Olivia laughed in anger, "I never expected you poor people to stoop so low in your desperate attempts to climb the social ladder. Even resorting to using your own uterus. Oh, not all poor people are as spineless as you, my sister Thea has a lot of pride."Hana took a desperate measure, treating the dead horse as if it were alive, and said, "If William is not willing to take responsibility, then I will accuse him of negligence.""Oh, so you finally reveal your true colors, huh? If you have the guts, go ahead and sue. Do you have any evidence? If you do, bring it out immediately, and we will register this child's household registration right away. If you don't have any evidence, it's not you suing him, but us suing you for damaging William's reputation."Hana couldn't argue with Olivia and left in a huff.Olivia continued to playfully
Hana panicked, "William, I was just momentarily anxious and spoke without thinking. Please don't be angry, I won't say these nonsense words again in the future."William was exhausted and said, "Let it go."The other side.Hana heard the busy tone coming from her phone, and her face froze. She looked helplessly at the pair of children next to her and said with great disappointment, "He wants me to hit this child? Just because I said bad things about her daughter being selfish and self-centered?"Eric frowned, deeply experiencing the despair of having a teammate who was a liability. He weakly retorted, "How many times have I told you that William is obsessed with spoiling girls? If you're with her, the stepmother will have to treat you better than your own mother. But you foolishly want to compete for favor with Jade."Hana held her son's hand, tears welling up in her eyes. "Son, can you help me? How can I change his mind? I don't want to terminate
