Holly didn't go home. Instead, she pulled her suitcase and headed to the airport,She sat in the cab's backseat and inserted a newly purchased SIM card into her phone. Once it was powered on, she re-downloaded her apps and booked a flight to Seolmont.Her flight would depart in just two hours. After booking the ticket, she leaned back in her seat and got lost in thought. Holly might've resolved to end it, but a six-year relationship was not something she could easily let go of. She couldn't deceive herself. The biggest obstacle between her and Lorian had never been others. In fact, it had always been him.Lorian never thought she was the right person to stand next to him. As far as he was concerned, Holly was only fit to wait in Silvercrest. In fact, he didn't even realize that their relationship dynamic was nothing like a boyfriend or engaged couple. It resembled an affair much more.Holly was merely Lorian's mistress. He always asked her to wait. Firstly, he wanted her to w

Lorian took out his phone and saw that Kris was calling him. He answered it immediately and asked naturally, "Is Holly at home? Did she have dinner?"Her voice trembled slightly, "Ms. Holly didn't go home, Mr. Lorian."Lorian's expression changed instantly. He hung up and started dialing Silverlake Villa's number, but Holly had sent all the servants home for the New Year. He called several times, but no one answered. At that moment, several people approached him for a toast. Lorian set his glass down and walked out of the party room quickly, leaving a group of people looking at each other in confusion."What's wrong with Mr. Lorian?""No idea."He flew to Silvercrest that night. To this moment, he still thought Holly was just throwing a tantrum. She must've been upset by his harsh words and had gone back to Silvercrest in a huff, refusing to see him. Although Lorian was exhausted, he was still willing to come and soothe Holly. He planned to bring her back to celebrate the

Lorian slowed down his steps. He stared intently at Holly. His gaze was intense and unyielding. Lorian knew he was losing his composure. However, he was finally reunited with Holly again. What did it matter if he lost his cool?She had been gone for four years.Four freaking years!In those four years, they hadn't contacted each other via text or phone call. They hadn't even heard each other's voices. They had zero interaction. Lorian's face was tense. After a moment, he forced out a few cold words through clenched teeth."You're back.""That's right." Holly's voice was somewhat dazed. She looked at the perfect couple in front of her. Four years had passed. She no longer had any relationship with Lorian anymore. However, she had once loved him deeply. It was impossible for her to be indifferent. Her heart ached sharply. It was an excruciating pain that nothing could get rid of.Poppy held Lorian's arm and smiled warmly at Holly. Her demeanor was gentle and cordial.

The Sanders Villa was bustling and lively. Gwynn held Holly's hand. She was so choked up that she couldn't speak for a long time.Then, she said in tears, "It's good you're back! That's what matters."Gwynn was both joyful and sorrowful. She turned her face away and took a while to regain composure. Holly understood her feelings. She leaned against Gwynn's shoulder. Her voice was slightly hoarse when she spoke. "I'm back, Mom. I've been doing well all this time! I've seen a different world out there and have been to many places."Holly was no longer the lady who had lived a sheltered life. She was her own person.It felt good."That's wonderful." Gwynn couldn't help but nod. She was worried that she might upset Holly. So, she didn't mention Lorian or PoppyHowever, Holly smiled faintly and said, "I just saw Lorian and Poppy at the door.""Holly."Gwen ran over and threw herself into Holly's arms. She was twenty years old, but she still acted like a child.Holly brought her

"Now, I don't even know who's the one who doesn't want this relationship between Lorian and Holly."…Noah bared his soul.Gladys felt sad too, but she remained tough on the outside. She scolded Noah for drinking too much and told him to go upstairs and lie down.She said that he wouldn't be airing his grievance like a child after a good sleep. Noah touched his nose and went up to the study on the second floor.The light was bright. He sat behind the dark wooden desk and pulled open a small drawer gently. Several documents were neatly arranged inside. Noah took them out one by one and opened them. They were the equity transfer documents for the Sanders Group.There were a total of four documents.Lorian held thirty-five percent of the company shares, while Holly held twenty percent. Ocelotte and Gwen each held ten percent. There was a purpose behind his distribution. Holly might've left back then, but he still believed that both of them would eventually be together. Thus,

"What does that have to do with you?"Holly lowered her gaze and avoided his eyes. Her voice had gained a mature allure compared to the past.She spoke calmly, "Aren't you the one who abandons people after they outlived their usefulness, Lorian? Aren't you the one who gives up when things don't feel right? "If we liken people to rags, then I'm the rag… Not you.""It's true. I was the one who left first, but why did I have to leave?"It was because Lorian neglected Holly. He didn't care about her.In their early twenties, he had told her that he'd take her with him wherever he went in the future. They'd never be apart.After they had been together for six years, Lorian told Holly to wait for him in Silvercrest.As far as he was concerned, his career and offspring were more important than her. She went from being first in his heart to last. That wasn't what real love was. No one could be that busy that they were occupied from morning till night. If it took Lorian two days to

The family sat together at the dining table and had breakfast early in the morning.Noah felt content in his heart.He poured a glass of milk for Holly. "Your mother woke up early to make breakfast herself. It's been years since she cooked. "Now that you're back home, I'll make breakfast for you every day."Holly replied softly, "I want to move out. I'll come home for visits and have meals with all of you on weekends."The dining room fell silent. Lorian sat across from her and held a cup of black coffee. His gaze was deep and inscrutable. His handsome lips pressed tightly together. However, he remained silent.Noah was the first to disagree, "You've just come back. Why do you want to move out again? "It's dangerous for a girl to live outside, especially at your young age.""I'm twenty-nine years old, Dad."Noah still disagreed. He felt indebted to her. He always felt that he should be by her side to take care of her. Fathers always wanted to protect their daughters, but

Holly relaxed after leaving the Sanders Villa. Brady gripped the steering wheel and focused on the road ahead. He asked casually, "Is he a past lover? Does Ignacio know about him?"Holly fell silent for a moment and murmured softly, "Ignacio doesn't need to know.""I will go through a divorce with Ignacio eventually," she added after a moment, "Besides, Lorian is a thing of the past."…Brady smiled faintly, "I think Ignacio would mind. By the way, he'll be returning to Zutriystein this week for an important project discussion."You may need to accompany him to some social events.""I understand," Holly replied. She leaned back in her seat. Her expression was tinged with a hint of melancholy.That was true. She was married.Holly encountered a sudden danger during a trip to a third-world country two years ago. At that time, there were two four-year-old girls in her car. Bullets flew towards them, and she shielded the children, who lost their parents in the attack. Then, she

However, despite his best efforts, they still crossed paths in the hallway.Gael stood quietly, watching Yanni. She had just taken Ella to the restroom, as she wasn’t comfortable leaving her alone. Besides Ella, there was another small girl with her, probably one of the twins she had with Keaton. The other twin was her brother.The twins were named Shay Bright and Drew Bright.

In the early morning, the first rays of sunlight bathed the earth, signaling a joyous occasion at the Sanders family home. The youngest daughter of Noah and Gwynn was finally getting married. Even more delightful, she was marrying her childhood love. Dressed in a headpiece and red bridal gown, she was as beautiful as could be, the most stunning woman Zion had ever seen.The Quarto family was busy with preparations. Although they were not extremely wealthy, Jordyn was a capable family head with a good reputation. He handled both inside and outside affairs with finesse and charm. To everyone’s surprise, he got along very well with Mason.However, Noah had some reservations. “Don't you have any relatives of your own, Mason?”Mason didn’t engage with his criticism.

That night, Jamie and Paityn returned home with their daughter Carol. As soon as they arrived, Carol went to do her homework, while Paityn went to check on their youngest son, Colten Lockwood. The housekeeper was taking care of him and, upon hearing footsteps, turned her head and softly said, "Madam, you're back? He hasn't woken up at all, he's such a good boy."Paityn smiled lightly and signaled for the housekeeper to go downstairs and rest.When the door closed, she looked down at the sleeping Colten. The little one, only eight months old, resembled his father completely; almost like a miniature copy of Jamie. Even Carol, at times, would look at her brother’s face and marvel: "It’s really a masterpiece from God!"Jamie replied, "You even know what a masterpiece is?"Carol teased, "A husband’s looks are the wife’s glory!"Paityn quietly said to Jamie, “She must have seen a supermodel runway show."Jamie immediately asked, "Did she like it?"Paityn didn't answer, just smiled.

On the second floor, Gwen was trying on her wedding dress for tomorrow. Just as Zion had wished, it was a traditional Zutriysteinian wedding.The red wedding gown was crafted by the top artisans from Zutriystein, elegant and dignified. The headpiece she wore was adorned with wild pearls; each gem was carefully embedded, and the headpiece alone cost tens of millions. A substantial amount of money had been spent.The woman in the mirror was stunningly beautiful. Gwen gently touched her headpiece and muttered to herself, "Zion really doesn’t mind spending money on this little hobby of his."Gwynn, as a mother, patted her head. "This little girl really doesn’t know when to keep quiet, but luckily, she’s married well and is right here beside me..."She had given a generous wedding gift, exactly the same as when Holly got married. Like Holly, Gwen didn’t want any shares of the Sanders Group. The money that Zion earned was enough to support both of them and his small hobbies.Meanwhile

Ignacio said, "We can’t take care of both of you."Holly was at a loss for words.Lucius was at that lively age, but he was raised by his father and had good manners. When he saw Ocelotte, he respectfully greeted him, saying, "Second Uncle."Ocelotte patted his little head, thinking that the boy seemed sturdier than his own children, possibly because Molly was too fragile. He made a mental note to make sure Yeager got some extra nutrients when he went back.The black Rolls-Royce Phantom sped down the highway, getting them back to the Qiao family mansion before evening.The Sanders family’s sons had all moved out, leaving only Gwen still living at home. Holly, who rarely came back, was also staying at the house. She didn’t refuse, planning to stay for a few days before heading to Silvercrest to visit her biological parents and pay respects.The car pulled into the Sanders Residence, and the house was lit up brightly.In the courtyard parking area, luxury cars were parked everywhe

In the evening, Gwen was preparing to leave work.In the parking lot, she spotted Zion’s car, but it was empty. Just then, a school leader passed by and said to her, “Zion came to school. There’s a donation ceremony happening in the auditorium. You should go check it out. "Then, you two can head home together afterward. On a cold day like this, a nice dinner would be perfect. What a cozy idea!”Gwen playfully replied, “You really know how to enjoy life.”The leader, holding a bag of groceries, laughed, “See? Your teacher’s wife has been nagging me since morning to go home and cook while babysitting the grandkids.”Gwen smiled softly, watching him leave.In the sky, clouds glowed orange and yellow, their edges tinged with gold.She carried a thermos as she walked toward the auditorium. Along the way, a few students noticed her and started chirping excitedly, cheekily calling her “Ms. Gwen.”Gwen corrected them, “It’s Ms. Gwen.”The students laughed and teased, “Ms. Gwen! Mr. Z

Gwen stared dazedly at the man.Zion, dressed in a black coat, stood tall in the study, exuding an oppressive aura. He walked toward her and pulled the teary-eyed girl, her face streaked like a little tabby cat, into his arms. One hand gently smoothed her hair as his voice softened to the extreme, "Still saying you didn’t cry."Gwen leaned against his shoulder, mumbling, "You did it on purpose.""Are you at least a little touched?"She pounded on him twice more in response.Zion chuckled lowly, letting the girl vent while his heart ached silently.These past five years had been filled with fear and uncertainty for him. He had been afraid that before he could make a name for himself, Gwen would fall for someone else. If that happened, what could he possibly use to ask her to come back to him?The love story of a poor boy and a rich girl might've existed in novels, but the reality was often harsh.Gwen didn’t care, but he couldn’t bear to let her endure hardship.Now, as they

Zion and Gwen's marriage seemed inevitable, with no one putting up any resistance. Occasionally, Gwen even had a strange illusion.It all went so smoothly that the years of separation seemed like they had never happened, as if she and Zion had always been together. After their reunion, he didn’t even ask her about her life abroad and treated her just as he did before.She was no longer as youthful and tender, but Zion still saw her as if she were a 20-year-old girl. Gwen felt a bit dejected, thinking to herself, he must just like girls around 18-year-old.But unfortunately, the spring river flows eastward and cannot return!Zion only smiled.In winter, the days grew shorter. After work, Gwen arrived at Zion's villa, but he had not yet come home. The two housekeepers had already started preparing dinner.When Gwen got out of the car, she received a call from Zion. Her voice was soft and tender.“When will you be back?”On the other end, Zion checked the time and said, “I’ll be

Zion noticed Gwen gazing at him with those wide, expectant eyes again. With a chuckle, he reached into the pocket of his trench coat, pulled out a sleek wallet, and carefully extracted a platinum card. He placed it in her outstretched hand and said with a smile, “This is my secondary card. There’s no credit limit.” Gwen gasped softly, then teased, “Wow, aren’t you generous? Thank you, Teacher Qin.” Zion gave her a light tap on the head. Not missing a beat, Gwen wrapped her arms around his neck and grinned mischievously, “Thank you, my sugar daddy.” Zion’s response was to pull her close, cupping her cheeks as he kissed her fiercely. Though he once carried himself as an educator and now as a refined businessman, he found himself utterly smitten by her playful antics. After the kiss, Zion leaned close to Gwen's ear and murmured something uncharacteristically crude that sent a shiver down her spine. He playfully nipped her nose. “Turns out you’ve got a thing for bad boy
