Matteo wasn't surprised to see Sonnet. He nodded and said, "Second Sister-in-law, you're here too?"Sonnet nodded at him. She felt that he was different from usual today. His usual gentle smile was gone!She looked at Maxwell, feeling a little anxious. Did something happen?Maxwell pulled Sonnet to sit opposite Matteo and said calmly, "Let's begin."Matteo said with a serious expression, "Second Brother, what I want to tell you is that I've already obtained the absolute advantage of Brooks Corporation's shares and have the right to speak. You have no right to dismiss the CEO of the Brooks Corporation!"Sonnet was shocked. She looked at Matteo and then at Maxwell.She didn't expect Maxwell to ask her to come and watch his brother fall out with him. Why did he suddenly fall out?Maxwell didn't look surprised at all. He folded his arms and looked at Matteo calmly. "Oh, is that so? Don't you only have 20% of the shares? Fourth Uncle's 15% plus the 5% you bought from Second Uncle?"
Towards the end, Matteo couldn't hide the smugness in his heart.Sonnet looked at him quietly and suddenly realized that this might be the real Matteo. The previous Matteo was just an actor!After saying that, Matteo waited for Maxwell's shocked and dejected expression, but he didn't expect Maxwell to smile. "I'm sorry to disappoint you. I have 50% of the shares.""Impossible! The whereabouts of all the shares are very clear. Other than me and you, only 1% of the shares are in Welson's hands. Previously, your foundation liquidated 5% of the shares many times, and that 5% went to different people. There was no possibility of getting them back at all! How could you have 10% more shares? Do you think I'm a fool? I'm not that easy to fool!" Matteo lost his composure and shouted.Maxwell was not in a hurry at all. "You can calculate it. You have 44% and I have 50%. That's 94%. Including the remaining 6%, it's exactly 100%! Isn't this correct?""That's impossible. I remember that the pe
"I really wanted to know who my biological mother was, so I secretly paid attention to my father's whereabouts. Later on, I discovered a black and white photo in my father's collection and discovered a shocking secret. It turned out that my biological mother was actually a twin sister of Maxwell's mother!"Something flashed across Sonnet's mind as she exclaimed, "Did you put that black and white photo between Yves' sofa?"That day they saw Yves, she asked Maxwell for that black and white photo before they left. She felt that it was strange. She clearly had it, so why did she still want it?Later on, Lucas told her that the photo was in the gap between the sofa. When Yves heard that, she laughed out loud. At that time, she thought it very strange.Everything was clear now. Matteo had put the photo there, and Yves didn't know about it at all. When Lucas told her that the photo was in the gap between the sofa, she realized that Matteo had put the photo there, and she laughed out loud.
Matthew smiled. "Looks like you've been adding fuel to the fire in the past, haven't you?""That's right. Actually, Uncle took Aunt to Pelang for a vacation to treat Aunt. There's a doctor in Pelang who's very good at treating this kind of illness. I heard my uncle mention it in passing, so I deliberately revealed it to Uncle. He took Aunt to Pelang.""If my mother-in-law recovers, it will be detrimental to your father, right? Why did you do that?" Sonnet couldn't help but ask."I deliberately wanted to harm him! I just wanted to see what he would do if the matter between him and my biological mother was exposed. He and my biological mother had been secretly doing some shady things for so many years. I wanted to see if he dared to expose himself in public. I didn't expect him to do something beyond my expectations!"Matteo looked a little excited as he spoke. "I didn't expect him to dare to kill someone! When he got someone to tamper with Uncle's car, I heard it clearly when I was
Sonnet sighed and couldn't help but say, "Matteo, you've schemed for more than ten years. What did you get in the end?"It was just lonely being deserted by everyone."Even if I didn't get control of Brooks Corporation, I at least got a considerable amount of shares! Now, other than Maxwell, I'm the biggest in the White Corporation. Even if I don't work in Brooks Corporation, I can guarantee that I won't have to worry about the rest of my life with the dividends every year!"Matteo spoke in a relaxed tone, but he didn't look too good."That's right. You don't have to worry about the rest of your life. At least you'll have a bite to eat and a regular schedule," Maxwell added.Matteo sensed something in Maxwell’s words, and his face twitched. "What do you mean?""I've already called the police. They will be here soon." Maxwell crossed his arms.Matteo stood up and said, "Arrest me? Why would they arrest me? Just because I schemed against them? I've never really done anything. Is t
"Huh? Why?"He looked up at Lindy. "Didn't you always say that I was too handsome and not suitable to act as a villain? Now that I have this scar, can I act as a villain?""But you can't keep this scar just to act as an antagonist!" Lindy almost stomped her feet.Sonnet held her down and looked at Lucas with a smile. "Alright, it's up to you. Do whatever makes you feel comfortable."He had never cared about his appearance. She knew that. Perhaps this scar could open the door to a new world for him.After coming out of the hospital, Lucas said to Lindy and Sonnet with a gloomy expression, "You guys can leave first. I need to buy something and go home by myself."Sonnet guessed what Lucas was thinking and said to Lindy, "Go back first. I'll send Lucas."Lindy had recently been planning to meet the parents of both parties. She didn't think too much about it and left.After watching her leave, Sonnet turned to smile at Lucas. "Let's go. I'll send you. She's at Boros Mountain Cemete
"Shay! Logan!" Sonnet exclaimed in surprise.Upon hearing the cry, Little Shay immediately broke free from Logan Scott's hand and ran towards Sonnet.Sonnet immediately squatted down and hugged Shay, who had jumped into her arms. Little Shay rubbed his cheek against Sonnet's face. This was his way of expressing affection.Logan smacked his lips when he saw how intimate Little Shay and Sonnet were.Sonnet hugged Shay and joked with him. "Why? Can't you watch your son get along with me?"Only then did she notice Logan holding a large bouquet of white roses.This was the first time she had seen this guy holding flowers. She felt a little strange. It was much more natural to see him holding an iron rod than to see him holding flowers.Logan didn't answer. Instead, he asked, "Why are you here?"Sonnet moved to let him see Lucas behind her.Logan immediately understood. "You're here to see Yves? This woman, even in death, still has people coming to visit her. I suppose that brings s
"There must be a very beautiful story between you two, right?" Sonnet couldn't help but ask. She was just too curious.Logan's face darkened.Sonnet hurriedly apologized. "I'm sorry…"Shay broke free from Logan's grip and ran to a small pine tree to pluck pine needles and pine cones. He played with them with relish.Logan stared at his son for a while and said faintly, "The first time I met her was…"The breeze, the warm sun, and the tireless recount of the past.Logan's voice was low and magnetic. When a love story came from his mouth, it was beautiful, romantic, and heartbreaking. Sonnet's eyes filled with tears.It was as if a movie was playing in front of her eyes, frame by frame…'Nine years ago.'It was a cold winter night, and a light snow was falling.Logan stood in front of the top hotel in Harbor City and looked up at the tall building. The building was brightly lit, but it was cold outside.It was Christmas Eve, and the sound of Christmas carols drifted out of the
The young ladies below gathered together and discussed animatedly. As they spoke, they covered their mouths and laughed.Young Master Gunnnn didn't care what others said about him at all. He only focused on the bouquet in Sonnet's hand.Not only Sonnet's bonnet but also Lindy's and Zyra's. He wanted them all.Lindy was waiting beside Sonnet. When she saw Hayden's focused expression, she couldn't help but laugh. "Why? Hayden hasn't successfully won over Suki yet?"Sonnet smiled and replied, "That's right. It's said that every time Suki agreed to register their marriage the next day, someone would die the next day. Later on, Suki didn't let him talk about registering their marriage.""Young Master Gunn is really infatuated!" Zyra sighed.Lindy rolled her eyes at her. "He's not infatuated at all. Among those men, he's the most flirtatious. Zyra, you don't know what Hayden was like in the past. He went to the nightclub almost every night and changed his girlfriend every week! He boas
Sonnet never expected her father to be the son of a wealthy family in North City!More than twenty years ago, he met her mother, Leah Turner, and they fell in love. Leah was a female university student from a rural area. There was a huge disparity in family status, and the Turner family did not agree to this marriage.Myles’ mother had passed away early, and his stepmother did not treat him well. Therefore, when Myles was angry with his father because of Leah, she added fuel to the fire, causing father and son to fall out.Myles severed his ties with the Turner family and returned to his hometown with Leah, becoming a language teacher in the village.Not only that, but Sonnet also knew that Myles had studied under Mr. Oddie when he was in North City. Back then, his pen name was Mr. Edelweiss. In other words, the Everglow that Sonnet gave Will Brooks was painted by him!Some time ago, Will needed money so he sold the Everglow painting on the market. Coincidentally, a collector from
"What's going on?" Sonnet asked.Zyra held Sonnet's hand. "Actually, we're family."Sonnet was puzzled, but Logan smiled and said, "Zyra is Shay's biological aunt. The test results are out today, proving that she is indeed related to Little Shay!""Ah… What's going on?" Sonnet was very surprised.Zyra held her hand and explained, "Before my mother passed away, she told me something. She said that I had a biological sister. Three days after she was born, she was secretly carried away and sold by my patriarchal grandmother. Later, my mother was pregnant with me and never said anything for so many years. She only told me this before she passed away."She said that she asked around later and said that my biological sister was sold to Harbor City. This was also why I chose to accept the designer position at Eternal Jewelry back then. I always wanted to fulfill my mother's dream before she passed away and find my sister in my lifetime.Back then, when I saw Yasmin Finch's photo, I susp
Hayden immediately became alert. "You're too tired. Rest first. I'll pick you up for supper."Suki didn't refuse. He immediately drove off.There were no cars in the middle of the night, so he arrived in ten minutes. After calling Suki, she came out in less than two minutes. She looked very tired as if she couldn't even walk.Hayden immediately went out to open the door for her. As soon as she got in, she leaned against the back of the seat and sighed."Are you tired?" Hayden asked."That's right. We went to the scene first and then dissected it without stopping. The corpse this time was a little complicated. We didn't even have time to eat."Hayden's heart ached when he heard her words. He quickly handed her the supper. "Hurry up and eat some."Suki didn't take it. "I don't have much of an appetite now. Let's eat later. I'll rest for a while."Hayden started the car. "Take a few bites first. Don't starve yourself.""It’s already ruined." Suki smiled bitterly. "When I first st
"If you have something to say, just say it." Suki looked ahead."Well, when we were eating just now, what did you think when you saw that they were getting married?""I don't think anything of it. Everyone's life is different," Suki said calmly.Hayden stole a glance at her. "Haven't you ever thought—"When he saw Suki turn to look at him, he choked on the second half of his sentence."What are you thinking about? Marriage?" Suki chuckled. "What's so good about marriage? Once you get married, you're trapped. You can't even change to another man."Hayden immediately felt stifled. This woman still wanted to change men…No, how could his woman think of changing men? He had to work harder so she didn't have the time or energy to think of changing men.Or rather, he should trap her. Once she was tied up, she would not be able to escape."Besides, I'm very busy with work and my profession is scary. I don't think anyone can accept me even if I wanted to," Suki continued."That won't
Amidst the laughter, Marcus clapped his hands and said, "Lindy and I have already set a time for our wedding. You have to help!"Logan waved his hand. "Count the two of us in!"Everyone was stunned.Hayden spat at Logan. "What are you doing here?""What’s wrong with joining in the fun?" Logan rolled his eyes at him and threw down his red booklet. "I just registered my marriage!"Everyone was in an uproar and started talking at once.Zyra blushed and lowered her head. Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice. "Congratulations!"She looked up and saw Sonnet.Sonnet smiled gently. "Congratulations on finding a good man."Zyra stammered, "Madam Brooks, don't you think it's too fast?""To be honest, the first time I saw you, I felt that you and CEO Scott are too compatible. It doesn't matter if someone is fated or not. It's fine as long as their hearts are connected," Sonnet replied with a smile.Zyra also smiled.As they chatted and laughed, they came to an agreement. Maxwell and S
Sara nodded mechanically. When the two of them got into the car, she remembered to shout, "CEO Scott, lunch today is already very good. There's no need to treat us anymore!"Logan smiled and said to Zyra, "Your colleague is an honest girl."The car started, but it was not in the direction of Zyra's house."Where are we going?""I'm taking you to see someone.""Who?"Logan smiled but did not answer. "You'll know when you get there."Half an hour later, when she saw the cemetery, Zyra knew who Logan had brought her to meet.She followed Logan silently to Yasmin's tombstone. She actually felt a little guilty, as if she had stolen someone else's position.Logan placed the white rose in his hand in front of the tombstone and said softly, "Yasmin, I'm going to marry a wife. You won't be angry, right?"Zyra looked at Logan in surprise. Marry a wife…She had only slept with him twice, and he was already going to marry her?The surroundings were silent except for the sound of the br
"Isn't your man handsome?" Logan closed his eyes and suddenly spoke.Zyra was stunned for a moment before her face turned red. She turned around shyly."He's just like a bandit. What's so handsome about him…" she said contentiously."Bandit?" Logan raised his eyebrows and looked at Zyra's smooth shoulders.He recalled the taste of last night and his heart began to stir again."I was a gentleman last night. You haven't yet seen your man acting like a bandit!"As soon as he finished speaking, he pounced…Zyra regretted saying those words and inciting a new round of "war". She did not expect that fellow's words to be true. It turned out that he could still be a little more "bandit"!As they left, she hugged him and asked, "Who am I?""You're my Little Zyra, Little Zyra."Zyra was completely relieved.That morning, Logan drove her to the office.In the afternoon, Zyra was about to go for lunch with her colleagues when she suddenly heard a commotion outside. Then, Sara brought a
There was an indescribable melancholy in her heart, sour and bitter."The investigation might be because of my wife, but it’s not about helping you," Logan replied as he looked at her face.At this moment, he was very clear that the face in front of him was not Yasmin's face at all. Other than the fact that she looked similar to Yasmin, the rest of her features did not look alike at all.She looked weak, but she was very strong on the inside. She looked heartless, but her emotions were very fragile. She was like a blade of grass in the wilderness, growing tenaciously, growing the toughness that belonged to grass and the beauty of grass.She and Yasmin were two completely different women!"Then you're helping me…" Zyra asked softly. When she asked this, her heart was beating wildly."Don't I have a favor to ask of you?" Logan smiled. "I wanted you to see my son once a week."Wasn't it because he wanted her to pretend to be his son's mother?Zyra was a little disappointed, but Lo
