Mike also received news of John's passing and was deeply saddened. He understood that his grandfather cared deeply for him despite the harsh words and tough love.Lydia was too upset to handle company affairs. Henry had to manage the company's matters and helped Lydia with the funeral arrangements. Even though they were divorced, he still saw himself as part of the Millers.The Millers held a funeral in the Miller Mansion, which Robert also attended. Jennifer was startled by his arrival. She worried he might be there to cause trouble, so she was incredibly nervous.Lydia realized Robert might be Henry's grandpa, so she quickly stepped forward and politely greeted him, "Mr. Truman.""Oh, Ms. Miller. My condolences," Robert replied politely, recognizing that she was the woman his grandson cared about the most."Thank you, Mr. Truman. Is there something specific you need?""Nothing much. Mr. Miller lived a remarkable life, and I came to pay my respects," Robert said.He needed to r
"I know, it's all my fault," Robert said, his voice tinged with regret."Nevermind. I haven't had a grandfather since my dad died. Not since my mom and I were driven out of the family," Henry replied coldly."You don't understand what happened back then. If I hadn't acted as I did, the Trumans—""Enough. I understand very well what happened back then." Henry cut him off, recalling his mother's revelations."Who told you?" Robert was taken aback."That's none of your business. Is there anything else? I'm very busy right now." Henry dismissed him."Fine. I understand. It's my punishment." Robert sighed and turned to leave, seeming devastated.Henry felt a pang of guilt."Maybe he did have his reasons."Just then, Lydia appeared beside him, having overheard part of their conversation.Henry was slightly taken aback but remained silent."I don't know what happened back then. But Mr. Robert seems like a good person. Most importantly, I don't want you to regret anything," Lydia sa
"Ms. Miller, Mr. Truman!" A servant hurriedly approached them."The elder Mr. Truman left this box for you."Henry was taken aback. He opened the box and found a ginseng inside. Although not particularly large, it looked aged enough—it must have been more than thousands of years old."A millennia-old ginseng," Jennifer said as she walked forward, her eyes filled with envy. The Trumans had almost gifted it to the Millers, but they had taken it back. It was then given to Henry instead.Robert was there to pay respect to John, who had passed away, so the ginseng should have stayed with the Millers!However, she dared not voice those thoughts aloud.Since it seemed like Henry would not return with him, Robert prepared to leave for Aurelia City after he left the ginseng at the Millers.However, he decided to visit Bill before that. He had long known that Bill was in Hodbridge, but he had been too focused on Henry to visit the man.Their conversation naturally turned to Henry. After
Henry also needed to prepare for the upcoming Holy Clan Conference, where he aimed to become the Holy Master and unite the five major branch clans under his command.Shortly after Henry left, Jennifer gathered many people, including William and key members of Wayne's family.Lydia instantly guessed their intention when she saw them. Jennifer had mentioned that matter several times, even before John's funeral, but Lydia was overwhelmed with grief and responsibilities and had no time to address it then.Jennifer's urgency was apparent, but Lydia could not believe her mother would join forces with outsiders, even if they were technically family."Lydia, now that your grandfather's funeral is over, it's time to consider the company shares," Jennifer said.Lydia was infuriated. "Are the shares really that important?""Yes, the shares might not matter for someone with Henry's support. But the rest of us have to rely on ourselves," Jennifer replied."Even if I'm with Henry, I can make
Jennifer was overjoyed and immediately said, "You mustn't go back on your word! No one is forcing you to do anything!""Mr. Potts, please come here!" she called out.A few people who were formally dressed and holding documents showed up immediately, led by Gregory Potts, the head of the Miller Group legal team."We've already prepared all the documents to transfer company shares. All we need is your signature," Jennifer said eagerly.Lydia was stunned. She was unable to bear their misunderstandings and insults.Furthermore, she had not expected her mother to have everything prepared in advance, including lawyers and agreements."Don't tell me you're planning to break your word," Jennifer said when Lydia did not speak or move."Lydia, a person must stand with integrity. You can't go back on your word," Wayne said, sensing the chance to secure the shares promised by Jennifer.Jennifer had promised to give him 5 percent of the shares if Lydia gave up on her shares. Otherwise, he w
"I didn't want them?" Lydia asked."Yes, exactly!" Jennifer replied hastily."Where did you get the idea that I didn't want the shares?" Lydia asked."Well, you know what I mean!" Jennifer responded shamelessly, knowing how crucial it was.Without her agreement, they would have to return everything they had gained immediately, and they might even have to beg Lydia to take it back."Fine, I won't argue about this," Lydia said."I will explain to Henry and ensure he won't trouble you."Jennifer was overjoyed and quickly said, "Remember your words. If Henry makes any moves, you have to take care of it.""Don't worry, Henry isn't that kind of person," Lydia responded coldly."Right, we just have a bit of concern. Since everything is settled, let's get the signing done so we can transfer the shares," Jennifer said.Lydia took the contract, skimmed through it, and swiftly signed it. All the documents involved were for the transfer of shares to her parents.Everything was finalized
As soon as Henry arrived at the restaurant, he heard a keen and sweet voice saying, "Dr. Truman!"He turned and saw a beautiful woman in a black dress.She had a gorgeous face with a bit of makeup, which made her appear fair and rosy, delicate and charming. Her bright eyes were clear and dazzling. She had a tall and attractive figure and a pair of long legs that were extremely alluring.He did not notice her in the hospital last time. That young lady was such a charmer. There must be countless men who long to have her.Mandy Wilkins approached Henry, who was staring at her. Her face reddened, and she whispered, "Dr. Truman, what are you looking at?""You! You're stunning." Henry did not hide it."Dr. Truman, you must be joking."Mandy's heart raced. She was thrilled but shy at the same time. He had been on her mind since the last time she saw him.It was obvious that the two had not communicated, but they seemed to be very fond of each other.Perhaps that was love at first sig
Henry smiled and said, "Actually, I still remember some of it. If I remember correctly, you gave me candies."He could vaguely recall it. Even though he was extremely talented, core memories were only formed after three, so he only had vague memories before he turned three.Bill was pleased and said, "Yes, you have a really good memory. I'm also really grateful to you for the treatment. Otherwise, I would've died."Bill was well aware of the passing of John Miller. John's condition was not even as serious as his. No hospital dared to operate on him then, so he had no other options."Mr. Wilkins, that's very nice of you. I should thank you for your help back then."Mandy was even happier when she saw that her grandfather and Henry had such a good relationship. She poured wine for the both of them and said with a smile, "Grandpa, you haven't been smiling so happily for a long time."Henry, I didn't expect Grandpa to like you so much. I shall trouble you to keep him company."Bill
