Chapter 53Burgess could no longer hold back his anger. He grabbed Oprah's arm and took her outside, "Let me make it clear whether you're single or not."Burgess dragged Oprah into the car.He used a lot of force. So, when he let go, Oprah's arm felt numb and painful.As the car door slammed shut, the vehicle sped along the main road, making Oprah couldn't help but feel afraid.She didn't know where Burgess was taking her. But gradually, she realized something was wrong.Although it had been six years, she recognized this road. Just a little further ahead was the villa where he had once imprisoned her.Oprah felt nervous and got panic attack, her hand by her side tightened slightly, with her fingertips sinking into her palm.Burgess noticed her expression, a cruel smile appearing at the corner of his mouth as he said slowly, "Didn't you say you have intermittent amnesia and don't remember many people and things? Why do you seem remember this place, then?"Oprah didn’t answer, she repea
Chapter 54Zoey still remembered what Old Thomas had said to her. "I don't care who Aaron dates, but there's no way a stage actress like you can be part of the Thomas family. If you shamelessly seduce Aaron into marrying you, I won't mind making him a widower."The threat weighed heavily on Zoey's mind. She knew just how ruthless old Thomas could be, that was why she decided to be part of Harrison family instead of Thomas.On the other side, Kaleb, waiting for the opportune moment, suddenly realized that both his disgraceful father's family and the woman his father was interested in were present at the banquet.He furrowed his brows, realizing he had acted too hastily in seeking revenge for his mother.Although he had checked that Aaron would be here, he failed to realize that it was the Harrison family hosting the banquet.However, now that he was already here, he wouldn't leave without doing anything. Moreover, he didn’t notice Burgess’s present at that moment, so it would be better
Chapter 55It seemed like a childish act, something only a child would do.A child...Aaron thought of that innocent-looking masked kid who had served him drinks.His expression darkened.Could this be a consequence of his past promiscuity?"I'll send our men to investigate," the assistant offered anxiously."Wait!" Aaron halted him. "No need to do that for a childish act.”If it was indeed his illegitimate child, they would surely reveal themselves soon. He couldn't openly search for them, as it might reach old Thomas' ears and not work to his advantage.Although the assistant was puzzled, he nodded.Then the assistant continued, "Sir, I found out what you asked me to investigate this morning. Angela, the daughter of the Johnson family, and Oprah were college classmates. Angela went abroad after graduation but returned to the country shortly after Oprah did. According to my findings, Angela has feelings for someone from her year named Warren. I suspect her reason for involving Oprah i
Chapter 56After breakfast, the driver took the three of them to the kindergarten.With Angela's help, Kaleb quickly completed the enrollment procedures and could start school that day."Mommy, Auntie Angela, please go ahead with your works. I'll pay attention in class," Kaleb assured them.Upon hearing this, Angela pointed to a short-haired boy sitting in the classroom not far away, “Anyway that's my nephew, Jimmy Johnson. I've already told him to look out for you. If any other kids bully you, go find him."A spark of excitement flashed in Kaleb's beautiful eyes. "Sure, thanks Auntie."While Oprah and Angela were packing up his belongings in the morning, Kaleb had already taken the opportunity to explore the place.He discovered that one of the kids named Elvis Harrison was a great-grandson of the Harrison family and the grandson of Burgess's eldest uncle.He was that scumbag's cousin's son!It seemed that Burgess really doted on his nephew. Humph, Kaleb would definitely cause annoyan
Chapter 57"Because I am a member of the Harrison Group, the future heir of the Harrison Group!" Elvis said arrogantly, emphasizing the reputation of the Harrison Group that was well-known throughout Manhattan.“So?”Elvis a little bit shocked to hear that. But he was from Denmark, so it was normal if he wasn’t aware."If you offend me, both you and your parents will face difficulties. Just so you know, this school is backed by my family. If I tell you to leave, you must leave," Elvis threatened.Kaleb raised an eyebrow. How did he not realize earlier that his unreliable father wanted to hand over the company to his nephew?"Oh."Thinking that Kaleb agreed, Elvis became smug.But then, Kaleb calmly stated, "I'm not leaving."This immediately infuriated Elvis.Unable to control his temper, he raised his foot, ready to kick Kaleb. However, Kaleb quickly glanced at him and skillfully blocked the attack.While abroad, Kaleb had learned martial arts specifically so that he could protect his
Chapter 58"Burgess found me today and inquired about the child. I'm worried he will discover the truth and attempt to take my children away," Oprah confessed honestly.After a brief pause, comforting words flowed from the other end of the line. "Don't worry. I have altered Kaleb and Shaun's birth dates. I have also manipulated the DNA test reports to conceal their true parentage from Burgess."Oprah realized she had briefly succumbed to panic. "That's… good to hear.""Don’t worry, Oprah. With me by your side, no one can separate you from Shaun and Kaleb."Behind Alfred, a group of executives awaited his conclusion of the call so they could resume the meeting in the conference room.However, after hanging up, Alfred felt a hint of reluctance. He directly instructed his assistant, "Keep a close watch on Shaun. Under no circumstances should Burgess's men locate him."Recently, he had discovered probing into Oprah's past occurring here. It surprised him that Burgess possessed such power t
Chapter 59Following the time indicated on the invitation, Oprah had the driver take her to the opera house in the evening.Upon arrival, she noticed numerous social elites and media personnel present. Some of her former high school classmates were there as well.Zoey had booked the entire music hall and exhibition halls of the opera house, allowing only invited guests to enter.Oprah entered with her invitation and was assigned a seat with a broad view. From here, she could see most of the venue.Initially, she didn't grasp Zoey's intentions until she spotted a familiar figure just before the performance began.Burgess had actually come and was seated in the front row.With Burgess's presence, the media flocked to report on Zoey, and all the news was positive.The affluent classmates who used to look down on Oprah now sought to get close to Burgess, but they couldn't penetrate his entourage of bodyguards.Suddenly, a respectful bodyguard approached Oprah. "Miss Oprah, the CEO would li
Chapter 60With a "Hmm" sound, Burgess leaned back in his chair and massaged his temples.Denmark!He never expected that Oprah had been living there all these years.No wonder he hadn't been able to find her despite searching for several years.Today, observing Oprah's unusual behavior, he became more convinced that she was hiding something from him. So, he ordered Hardy, “Find out anything related to Oprah in Denmark, whether it's an affair or whatever it is.”“Yes, Sir.”Meanwhile, Oprah had just finished talking to her children on the phone when she received a call from Zoey."I'm outside your place. Can we meet?" Outside the residence, Zoey stood next to a chauffeur-driven car.As Oprah went out, Zoey walked towards Oprah and glanced around."This place is really grand, and the surroundings are excellent," Zoey commented with a hidden meaning.Oprah posed the question, "Did you come to see me just to discuss the house?""Certainly not." Zoey took a step closer to Oprah and replied
