"Are there really so many of them?" Rosa asked in disbelief.

Lana nodded as she looked at Rosa's skeptical expression. "They all claim to be the girlfriends of the Garrison family heir."

In other words, Rosa's attempt to show off had failed!

However, even if it failed, it didn't mean she couldn't become the Garrison family heir's girlfriend for real.

After all, her family background spoke for itself. She was confident the other customers couldn't match her aristocratic background.

Lana finished the massage and promptly brought the POS machine.

Rosa was totally irritated by Lana's action. "Lana, are you afraid I can't afford it?"

Lana was straightforward and replied, "Yes!"

She understood better than anyone else that there was indeed a difference between the presidential family and business families. To some extent, the presidential family didn't have the same financial freedom as the business families.

Rosa was already filled with regret over the money she had spent that

    Noticing Merida's unpleasant expression, Carol gently intervened, "Chris, how can you speak to your mom like that? She's the one who brought you into this world and raised you. That's not a way to treat her!"Chris once again felt Carol's kindness. "Carol, she's treating you this way, and you're still defending her?" he asked.Carol looked sad. She kept her head low, and her voice was slightly hoarse. "Chris, we should show gratitude when our loved ones are with us. I should have been a better daughter to my mom. Don't end up like me. Even if I wanted to be a good daughter, I no longer have the chance."Carol's words made it seem like Sarah had passed away instead of going to prison! Chris suddenly realized that he had unintentionally triggered Carol's sad memories. Thus, he immediately wrapped her in a tight embrace. "Carol, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to," he softly comforted her. Then, Chris affectionately planted a kiss on the top of her head. "I feel for you, especially

    To put it kindly, Chris was being self-assured. However, to put it bluntly, he was being selfish.Andrew had never expected this. At the critical moment of Merida's life and death, their treasured youngest son still only cared about himself. "Are you really willing to let her die without trying to help?" Andrew, who had never said a harsh word to Chris, finally realized the gravity of the situation. He then added, "She's the one who gave birth to you and raised you!"Chris still held his head high with pride as he replied, "Dad, do you really want to see me kneel to someone like Lana?" "Someone like Lana?" Andrew couldn't help but scoff. "What kind of person is she? From what I've seen, Lana is much better than you. At least she can't stand by and let someone die. It was her who saved your mom's life.""Even if it's the case, so what?" Chris had a strong dislike for Lana. "She's still despicable. Making me kneel before someone like her is worse than death." Andrew finally

    "Why?"Lana wanted to know why he would lower the price. She wasn't a fool. She had spent a long time developing this processor. If Liam's offered price was unreasonable, she wouldn't sell him this patented technology.Liam said bluntly, "You're rich!"Lana was speechless. So she should be taken advantage of just because she's rich?"Even if I have money, this is the result of my hard work, Liam. You shouldn't be so stingy!"Liam fell silent.This was rare. Liam had never heard someone call him stingy in all his life.Lana continued to tease him. "With this attitude, you'll definitely never find a wife in the future!""It's none of your business whether I get a wife or not!" Liam was a bit angry, and his tone became harsh. He added, "Or are you worried that you won't get married? So, you'd rather see me unable to find a wife.""What?" Lana didn"t expect Liam to not only be stingy but also speak so harshly. She quickly struck a seductive pose and said, "Do you think I wou

    Lana took the nearest flight and arrived at the Southern Star Studios well into the late hours of the night. By the time she reached the hospital where Mandy was, it was already past three in the morning. The hospital had modest facilities, and Mandy lay in bed, semi-conscious. After removing her makeup, her complexion looked unnaturally pale. She appeared extremely frail.What surprised Lana was that Romelius had arrived even before her. "Lana, why are you here?" Romelius was both happy and surprised when he saw Lana."Isabelle called me and told me that Mandy had fainted, so I came," Lana explained.She found it rather strange that Romelius was there as well. "And you?"Romelius was quite straightforward in his response. "I saw it in the trending news."It turned out that Mandy had collapsed on set, and her fans had posted about it on Twitter, making it a trending topic. Mandy's fans were deeply concerned about her. Many of them wanted to go to the hospital to take care of

    Watching Lana's innocent smile, Romelius couldn't bring himself to blame her. She probably didn't mean it that way."Lana, I just want to recover on my own. I don't want to be anyone's burden."Since learning about her illness, Mandy had never considered telling anyone. She was racing against time to find her child and take on as many roles as possible to create more memories for her fans. She wanted to leave all her legacy behind for her child, nothing more."Mandy, you haven't burdened anyone. It's me who has burdened you by insisting on taking care of you. I'm sorry."Mandy remained silent.Lana's words made her feel embarrassed."Lana, I suspect you're deliberately going against me to annoy me."Lana smiled mischievously. "Then you can think of it that way."After all, she already knew what illness Mandy had, and she had no intention of leaving her side.Romelius had already bought breakfast for Mandy. He quietly peeled a boiled egg for her before handing her a piece of

    "To be honest, I always thought you and Liam would last because you were such a perfect match," Darla said. Darla knew she shouldn't try to prevent the breakup. But she believed that if Lana was gone, it would be a lifelong loss for Liam. So, even though it might be unseemly, Darla intended to address it for Liam's sake. "Lana, can you tell me what led to this point between you two?" Darla noticed that Lana wasn't eager to discuss this topic and quickly added, "I'm not here to persuade you to reconcile. I just saw how miserable Liam has been lately."She continued, "You know, we've depended on our grandmother since childhood. As the older sister, I can't stand to see my younger siblings suffer. So, I want to understand the reasons, but Liam doesn't want to talk to me about it."So, Liam was also suffering! Lana had believed that only she was hurting."He's sad too?" Lana's tone was icy.

    "Mr. Quinn, are you alright?" The doctor held Romelius and administered first aid. Shortly afterward, Romelius woke up. However, as he regained consciousness, Romelius immediately grabbed the doctor's white coat tightly. He asked, "Doctor, everything you said earlier, is it true?"The doctor thought Romelius wanted to settle scores and began recounting the incident."Mr. Quinn, please don't get too upset. Let me explain." The doctor tried to calm Romelius, but Romelius's iron grip on his coat left him immobilized. He had no choice but to explain the situation. "Mr. Quinn, I admit that what happened was unethical on the part of our colleague. She is a fan of Ms. Mandy and Ms. Lana."She noticed the striking similarities in their behaviors, especially some of Ms. Lana's expressions and gestures. It really resembled Ms. Mandy in her youth. He continued, "This led her to suspect that the two might be related. So, she secretly conducted DNA tests using samples from both of them.

Even Leonardo was taken away just to give the two people who had been apart for a long time some space to be alone.After everyone had left, Liam straightened out his clothes and approached Lana, then proceeded to slowly crouch down."Lana!"In the man's deep and sexy voice, there was an unusual tremor and a hint of choked emotion.Liam had no idea what kept him going during these years after losing Lana.Liam didn't dare to do anything too bold.

    Liam's outstretched hand awkwardly hung in the air, and eventually, he could only withdraw it."Speak up if you have something to say, or else, stay quiet. We're not in the mood to listen to you." Hector's attitude toward Liam was still unfavorable, to the extent that he didn't even want to see him.Lana suddenly said, "Something very serious actually happened today."Following that, she placed Leonardo down and showed everyone the wound on his neck.A ring of red marks surrounded Leonardo's delicate neck. In some places, the marks were so swollen that it looked like a tire had been wrapped around his neck. It was a shocking sight to behold.Hector, Violet, Mandy, and Romelius were immediately enraged."What happened to Leo?""What happened to his neck? It could have been fatal if it was any worse.""Who was responsible for watching Leo today?

    On the evening of the banquet, the Garrison Villa was bustling with distinguished guests.Initially, everyone's attention was on the precious great-grandson of the Garrison and Kane family.

Everyone was naturally curious about who the child might have chosen as his stepmother.It should be noted that the Garrison and Kane family only had one great-grandson. His future was destined to be extraordinary. As long as one could control the child, it was much more worthwhile than dealing with those individuals from the two affluent families.After all, the elders from the two families were very attentive and doting toward this child.

Did you miss Mommy? Mommy missed you so much!"Lana ran toward Leonardo, talking to him while reaching out to hug him. In a flash, Leonardo suddenly ran toward Romelius while holding a toy car.After that, he kept hiding in his arms, refusing to come out. He would occasionally peek out from the gaps to glance at Lana.His actions clearly showed that he refused to accept Lana.Lana's enthusiasm was dampened, and her outstretched arms awkwardly remained in midair.

Why did you leave us in the shadows? Even if you chose not to contact anyone else, you should've considered reaching out to me. Do you have any idea how much I missed you?"Over the years, Violet had been grappling with a deep sense of loss.Though it remained an unspoken sentiment among them, Violet was aware of the underlying blame directed toward Liam for what was believed to be Lana's demise.Had Liam been more emotionally available, their relationship wouldn't have crumbled.

"Leo, you should be calling me 'Mommy'!" she gently corrected him.Leonardo hesitated momentarily before redirecting his attention to Liam.Even though Liam hadn't exchanged a single word with Lana, he spoke up when Leo glanced his way, firmly stating, "Feel free to do as you wish.
