Lydia was stunned. She wanted to explain that it was not a joke, but she could not bring herself to do so. She realized she did not want to divorce him."Why are you just standing there? Why aren't you saying anything?" Jennifer grew impatient."I'll do as you wish," Lydia said, lowering her head, her face flushed.She obviously did not want to get divorced, so she took advantage of that opportunity to back out."That's right. Henry. Lydia doesn't want a divorce either," Jennifer said, pleased with her daughter's response."What nonsense are you talking about, Mom?" Lydia protested."Am I talking nonsense? I understand what you're thinking. I wanted you to leave Henry before, but you didn't listen; now I'm suggesting we cancel the divorce because you're more agreeable to that than anyone else," Jennifer said."Mom!""Okay, I'll stop."Jennifer then turned to Henry and said, "I treated you badly in the past, mostly due to misunderstandings."I thought you were a useless freelo
Lydia quickly said, "It's already noon, and I'm hungry. Should we start serving food?""Yes, let's talk at the dining table," Jennifer said."Yeah, Henry, we should have a good session today," William said with a smile, pulling Henry to the dining table. He even intended to offer Henry the main seat.Henry felt embarrassed and insisted on giving it to William.William was pleased about it. He praised Henry as being more gentlemanly and polite than the young masters of those prominent families. He even claimed that Henry was well-mannered and courteous as if he had been raised that way since childhood.Henry smiled bitterly to himself. Even though their attitude was excellent, he was not used to it, especially when it was excessively good."From now on, we'll put Lydia in your care, Henry. You must treat her well," William said."Be assured, Uncle. I will," Henry responded."Call me Dad.""You should sleep in Lydia's room tonight. I hope to have a grandchild soon," William said
Lydia's face dimmed as she considered it.If Henry married into the Ford family, it would mean the end for her and Henry.She felt uncomfortable just thinking about it. However, she was unable to escape that fact. Otherwise, things would get even more chaotic."What!"William and Jennifer's expressions shifted dramatically as they exchanged glances.Especially Jennifer, who thought, 'I knew it. How could Henry, a mere bumpkin, wield such enormous power? I didn't expect his luck to be so good that he could win Chansey's heart. But if that's the case, I need to change my strategy.'If Henry can only gain power by being with Chansey, then he can't be with our daughter. He will have no power and may even offend Mr. Ford, resulting in the Millers' downfall.'When they realized that, they cursed Lydia for being foolish, nearly destroying the Millers. Fortunately, she raised the issue early. Otherwise, they might have forced Lydia to be with Henry, which could have been very bad for th
That proposal baffled both Lydia and Mike.What a mess!Lydia was furious.How could they propose that she and Henry become sworn siblings?Henry was astounded by Jennifer's idea. What stunned them even more was William's suggestion. "Speaking of which, I have a better idea."Since we're already so close, why don't you acknowledge us as your godparents? Then we'll really be one big family."Henry was speechless. He had no idea when they had become so close.Lydia could not take it anymore; she said, "Dad, Mom, enough. What do you take me for?""What? Henry and Ms. Ford are a perfect match. They're destined to be together. This is for your own good," Jennifer replied angrily. She could not understand why Lydia did not understand it.After all, Henry was meant to be with Chansey. Setting things up early would result in numerous benefits later on."Yes, you did good."Lydia was upset about Jennifer's words. Even Henry was implicated.Henry could not help but feel stunned."He
Lydia was happy, but she said, "I don't care about what you think anymore.""Are you sure you won't regret canceling our divorce?" Henry asked."You can regret it if you want," Lydia said.She turned and walked away.She was irritated that Henry brought it up again, which was pointless.Henry smiled. He realized Lydia cared about him, even if she would not admit it. That was fine; he did not mind it.He recalled his childhood—He might have died long ago if Lydia had not helped him.He had a higher tolerance for the angel in his heart.When Lydia returned inside, Jennifer asked, "Be honest with me, Lydia. What are you thinking right now?""What do you mean?""I'm talking about Henry. Don't even think about being with Henry. Have you ever considered how Mr. Ford might treat our family if Henry were with you?"Lydia paused momentarily before saying, "That's a future matter; we'll talk about it later.""Okay, it appears that you really want to be with Henry. That's simply impos
Henry was abruptly stopped by a black car After getting into his car and driving for a short distance. Several bodyguard-like men in suits emerged, and their leader knocked on Henry's window, saying in an icy cold tone, "Get out. Our young master wants to see you."Henry was not flustered and responded calmly, "I'm busy. If your young master wants to see me, he can come to me. Is he crippled or too embarrassed to come out and meet other people?""How dare you!"Furious, the man said, "You better take back your words, or you might regret it.""Sorry, once spoken, words can't be taken back. Leave me alone if you don't want to get into trouble." Henry could not be bothered with the man's threats."You're asking for it!"The man became enraged and reached out his right hand as if to force Henry out of the car window.However, as soon as his hand entered, it was grabbed and violently smashed against the window frame. The man heard a crisp snap and felt his elbow bone break.He was l
"It's impossible for you to be with Mr. Truman. Did you know Lydia and Mr. Truman had been destined to be together since childhood?" Jeffery revealed everything about Henry's anxious search for the little girl.Chansey was stunned after hearing everything. She had not expected Henry and Lydia to have such a deep connection. He had been looking for Lydia, the angel in his heart, all that time."Is that true, Dad?" Chansey asked."Of course. Why do you think Mr. Truman, with all of his abilities, tolerates the Millers' and Lydia's behavior and disrespect?" Jeffery explained.He also wished Chansey could be with Henry; being the father-in-law of a Master of Golden Liberty would be an honor. However, it was impossible.Since it was impossible, he needed to make other plans for Chansey and avoid allowing her to become overly involved with Henry. Furthermore, Ted was an exceptional man. He had promised that Jeffery would advance to Grandmaster if he married Chansey to Ted.Jeffery woul
Finally, Chansey agreed.Jeffery breathed a sigh of relief as Chansey agreed to his request.Such opportunities were exceedingly rare—unless Henry married Chansey, there was no better option than to marry Ted."But don't tell Mr. Truman about this.""Why?""He might believe you've been wronged and actively oppose the Chapman Legacy for you. They wield immense power, and Mr. Truman's opposition to them will fail.""I understand, but isn't he only in love with his wife? Why would he defy the Chapman Legacy for me?""Who knows? He loves his wife, but he also has feelings for you. He might act rashly and believe he's powerful enough to intervene.""I see."Chansey felt a little happier after hearing Jeffery's words. At the very least, she retained some of Henry's affection. However, as soon as she realized the terrifying power of the Chapman Legacy, she suppressed the urge to tell Henry everything and waited to see if Henry would defend her.At the same time, Simon received feedb
