Henry was unaware of any of that.He followed Lydia into the Miller Mansion's neighborhood when he heard that Jennifer might be in trouble.Outside the gates, Lydia was very nervous.Although they had reconciled, their relationship was still complicated.Henry had never mentioned wanting to return to the Miller Mansion, but to Lydia's surprise, he drove straight in and even parked in the mansion's parking space.His gesture deeply touched Lydia.If the roles were reversed, she would not have been as generous as Henry was.She took his hand and said softly, "Henry, thank you!"Henry smiled, expressing everything he felt through the simple gesture.Even though the Millers annoyed him, he adored Lydia, not the Millers.As Lydia led Henry inside, she expected the Millers to greet them warmly. After all, reuniting with Henry had been their greatest desire lately, and they would have done anything to have him back, even if it meant abandoning their pride.Lydia was uncomfortable w
"So, Henry, you finally admit it, right? We hate liars like you. What do you think you should do now?" Jennifer said mockingly."Are you going to kick me out again?" Henry asked, a hint of self-deprecation in his voice."Shouldn't we? A fraud like you has no place here. We know you're just hanging around for the Miller family's fortune!" Jennifer scoffed."Mom, you're wrong!" Lydia was desperate, so she started yelling, "Henry has countless assets. He wouldn't care about our small fortune. He even gave Mike a hotel worth hundreds of millions!""Don't be ridiculous! Lydia, you're so naive. Is hundreds of millions a small amount? No one can give away such a large sum just like that!"A few million or even one hundred million might be credible, but hundreds of millions? I've lived long enough to know it's a bluff!""It's true!" Lydia insisted."Maybe when pigs can fly, Lydia! You've been deceived!" Jennifer said, "Henry, get out right now, and we won't hold your past actions agains
After Henry said that, he gave Lydia one last glance and sighed quietly."Lydia, I'm sorry. I'm leaving now."Then, he walked away, unwilling to stay another second in that unbearable place."Henry!" Lydia shouted, panic rising in her voice.She tried to stop things from going south, but it was futile."You're all crazy! You don't even know what you're doing!"She tried to chase after him, but Jennifer stepped in front of her and grabbed her arm."What are you doing? You'd leave your family for a man? Lydia, if you step out of this house today, I'll end my life right here!""Do what you want!" Lydia was furious and tried to break free to follow Henry.She felt that her family had gone too far, and that was not the first time they had acted that way."Fine! You don't care about me anymore, right? I'll kill myself right now!"Jennifer released Lydia and went straight for the fruit knife on the table.She picked it up and held it against her neck."Jennifer!""Calm down, hon
John and Jennifer were on the same page; they thought Henry was simply too fearless.He had just walked out with a grand show of righteousness, yet he quickly sent someone acting as the head of the Truman family.That man might even have a specific request for Henry!If they wanted to be even more absurd, they might as well claim Henry was the Trumans' heir.Robert forced a smile, frustrated that his identity was being questioned.He tried to explain, "I think there might be some misunderstanding here. I'm indeed—""Enough!" Jennifer cut him off and said, "We've already seen through your little act, so stop pretending!"She continued mocking him. "If you weren't so old, I would've chased you out with a broom."Robert's face darkened, barely restraining himself from losing his temper.He had been a key figure in Aurelia City for years; everyone had always treated him with the utmost respect.Even those of the highest ranks had been courteous to him, and he had never felt so hu
Robert's entourage, especially his loyal man, Nightfall, had finally reached his limit.Nightfall could no longer contain his anger.Ignoring Robert's earlier instructions, he unleashed a powerful and intimidating aura, shouting, "How dare you! Sir Truman holds an esteemed position and won't tolerate such disrespect!"Jennifer and the others shuddered, obviously terrified by Nightfall's demeanor.However, Jennifer thought it was just a desperate move, a tactic she was all too familiar with.She thought they were trying to intimidate and regain control after being exposed!"Stop pretending! You're just a bunch of con artists. Are you threatening us? Do you want me to call the police and have you arrested?" Jennifer yelled back.John nodded. "The Millers aren't to be trifled with. I've been tolerant because of your age, but don't push your luck.""Nightfall!" Robert shouted.He could tell that Nightfall was on the verge of losing control and might actually resort to violence.I
"How? We've tried everything, but his martial arts skills are too good. We can't beat him," John said, shaking his head."That's because we haven't found anyone strong enough. I just heard from a friend about an incredibly powerful assassin organization," Jennifer replied."Assassins?" John's face paled, and he glanced around before whispering, "Are you talking about killing him?""We don't have any other choice! He's brought this upon himself," Jennifer replied heartlessly."Alright, but try not to kill him if possible. What's the name of this organization?""The Ghost Gate. I don't know much, but their leader, Damian Blackwood, is terrifyingly powerful. As long as the money's right, there's no one they can't eliminate.""Fine. Go and handle it," John said."Okay, I'll make the call now. For 1.5 million dollars, he won't survive the night."Jennifer immediately pulled her phone out to make the arrangements.Meanwhile, Richard was in shock."Is it true that Robert Truman is i
"What is it?" Henry asked."The Trumans' General Ivory Unicorn was ambushed and killed."Henry was stunned.General Ivory Unicorn was one of Aurelia's Four Divine Generals, with strength nearing that of a peak-stage Grandmaster."Are you sure?""Absolutely.""Who did it?""We don't know yet. The higher-ups are furious and have ordered General Cobalt Dragon to investigate thoroughly and hold those responsible accountable.""Yes, the death of General Ivory Unicorn is serious. It's not just a loss of a powerful force for Aurelia; it's a blatant act of disrespect toward the nation." Henry sighed.Although he was deeply resentful toward the Trumans, as it was likely they were the ones pursuing him, he needed more proof.Only by finding his mother could he understand the root of everything, especially why they had left the Trumans and what had happened to his father.Was she alive or dead?"I agree, Master!""Who do you think it could be?" Henry asked."I'm not sure, but our pe
"Silly girl, calm down. I wasn't ignoring you; my phone was out of battery. It's not even fully charged now, but I immediately called you back, " Henry said."Are you not upset with me?""No. Why would I be upset with you? It wasn't your fault," Henry replied, shaking his head."Don't worry about it. As long as your feelings for me are sincere, nothing and no one can come between us, not even a minor thing like this.""My feelings for you will never change," Lydia said softly, a bit embarrassed for being so forward.She quickly changed the subject and asked, "Where are you right now?""I'm at Paradise One. Are you planning to come and make it up to me?" Henry teased.To Henry's surprise, Lydia replied, "They probably won't let me leave. Otherwise, I would go to you right now. But don't worry, I'll sort it out with them.""There's no need for that. Time will tell," Henry said, shaking his head."No way. I can't let them continue to misunderstand you.""Alright, it's up to you.
