At the end of the day, Archibald was disheartened.

He recalled how he had reconciled with Gwynn back then. It was as lively and cheerful as tonight, too. The stained-glass pendant lights were hung all over the entire villa.

Yeah. Those pendant lights were a thing of beauty.

So, he summoned Saul. He said casually that he wanted to fiddle with it and asked his assistant to fetch one over for him.

Saul was stunned.

After a moment, he freshened up his master’s cup of tea and said warmly, “You must’ve forgotten, Mr. Archibald… All the pendant lights in the villa were smashed on your orders.”

The old man didn’t come to his senses for a while. “Smashed? Are you telling me that not even a single one is left?”

Saul didn’t respond to that question.

Archibald dropped the matter and resorted to sitting there quietly, wallowing in the bitter feeling of being alone.

So much time had passed. He was surprised at how lonely he had become.

Anderson had rebelled against him for the past yea

    Anderson and Talia were staying by Ollie’s side within the VIP ward, facing each other. They were supposed to be the closest people to one another. However, they were treating each other like strangers. The little boy lay on the bed, but he slept poorly. His forehead was covered in sweat, and he was murmuring in his sleep. “Mom… Dad…”Talia was heartbroken to see her son this way. She grumbled to Anderson, “I’m not going to pin the blame on you for Ollie having this condition. All I ask is a promise from you. If none of the family members have compatible bone marrow for my little boy, then I want you to get Gwynn, Lorian, and even her unborn baby to donate their bone marrow… I don’t care what it takes, I want Ollie to live.”He was stunned. “It’s her choice if she wants to donate her or her children’s bone marrow to our son. More to the point, Gwynn is pregnant now.”Talia said matter-of-factly, “She could always get an abortion.”At the next moment, he slapped her right acro

    Lorian’s face went stiff. Staring at Talia fiercely, the young boy said, “She’s not my mom! She’s a vampire!”Talia’s delicate face was contorted with rage at once. However, she maintained her patience, knelt before him, and tried to convince him in a lovely tone, “You’re a good boy, Lorian! Your little brother is sick. So, I’m going to need you to give him your bone marrow. Will you do it?”Lorian grumbled, “No way! I’m not doing it for a bloodsucking vampire!”Then, the young boy’s teacher noticed what was going on. She was about to go over and calm the kid down when Gladys came over in a car to pick up Lorian. The first thing the old lady saw when she got out of the car was Talia trying to trick her grandson. Swooping him up in her arms, she glared at the younger woman fiercely. “What’s the matter with you? Have things gotten so bad for the Templetons that you have to kidnap a young boy?”Talia’s face went pale. “I’m Anderson’s wife.”Gladys spat and said, “And I’m Noah’s

    Gwynn’s face turned red after she heard what Noah said.Her feet would be shaking like a newborn calf every time he finished ‘repaying’ her. Being pregnant didn’t keep him away from her either. He might not have been able to do it for real, but he’d find a way to rouse her desire so much that it felt worse than death. With that said, she didn’t want to appear scared. So, she picked up a book and pretended to read it. “I don’t need you repaying me for anything!”She looked so elegant as she spoke. Initially, he didn’t mean it that way, but he couldn’t help but pull her into his arms and persuade her to tell him her plan.She leaned on his chest. Her black silk sleeping gown was hanging loosely on her lean shoulders, revealing her glowing, delicate skin that seemed to be calling to him. Rubbing his dashing face, she filled him in on her plan in a gentle voice. He couldn’t help but feel more impressed with her. His urge to ‘repay’ her was very strong right now.He pondered on it

    The night grew darker and quieter. An eerie silence hung over the Templeton villa. Marisol was packing up her jewelry, clothes, and valuables into a couple of big suitcases in the master bedroom on the second floor. …Anders was smoking outside. There were more than ten cigarette butts in the ashtray. Later, she dragged the suitcases out. She asked him, “Are you leaving with me, Anders? We’ll remain a married couple if you join me. I’ll respect your decision if you want to stay, but it will also mark the end of our marriage.”Her voice was restrained when she said, “I can’t bear to stay in this family for another second.”She loved Archibald and treated him like her father. However, the universe had played a cruel joke on her. Never had she thought that the wise, old man would’ve been that moronic. He actually cared about himself so much that he refused to save his own grandson. He had left Anderson to die back then. Anders continued to smoke. It was hard for him to ma

    Gwynn forced a smile in response. Both of them bared their souls for a while and went to sleep. That was when Noah’s phone, which he put next to his pillow, started ringing.He saw the caller. Squinting his eyes, he answered the call. On the other end of the phone, a middle-aged man spoke. “Archibald secretly did the compatibility test for Gwynn. The result says that her bone marrow is compatible with Ollie’s. I think he’s going to move in on her soon. “Now, I’m aware that you built up some reputation and power in Hucksburgh. I suggest you transfer her there immediately. Better yet, send both of your kids there as well! It’s too dangerous for them to stay in Brookesville.“He’s locking Marisol in the villa against her will.“It’s official. Archibald has lost his mind.”…Noah wore a blank expression. “Got it.” Hanging up, he looked at Gwynn. He knew she heard everything, but she appeared utterly calm. Pulling her over gently, he made her lean on his shoulder and told her

    Saul went to the parking spot and was about to get into the car, but Archibald said dryly, “This is a family affair, Saul. You should stay away from this point on.”Saul responded with a smile, “Anything that concerns you is my business, Mr. Archibald.”The old man shot him a glance. “I don’t intend to drag anyone else into my family affair and create unnecessary trouble.”Saul dropped the matter and watched as six limousines drove out of his sight. He waited until all the cars were out of the villa before pulling out his phone, changing the SIM card, and making a call. “Something bad happened, Mr. Noah.”“Archibald wouldn’t let me follow him… I don’t even know which hospital he’s going to.”…Back in the director’s office in the Sanders Group, Noah hung up the phone and walked outside at once. He relayed an order when he passed by Kim’s office, “Summon as many bodyguards as you can from the security firm. I need them with me.”It was a brief order, but it hinted at a dire sit

    One of the doctors was so dense that he took an anesthetic over and said, “We’re going to begin the bone marrow transplantation now. Please get out of here, sir.”“To hell with that.”Noah swung his feet and broke three of the male doctor’s rib bones. The latter slipped on the floor and groaned out of pain. At the next moment, several hundred bodyguards he hired from the security firm surrounded and sealed off the hospital. All of a sudden, Archibald’s twenty-over bodyguards were as insignificant as a speck of sand! The moment Gladys regained her freedom, she went over to Gwynn and undid her bonds. She broke down crying. “It’s a good thing that Noah is here in time! Otherwise, something horrible would’ve happened to you.”Gwynn’s eyes were filled with tears. She had made plans with Noah to go to Hucksburgh in three days, but none of them thought Archibald would be this insane.Noah didn’t see the need to play nice anymore. He took his time taking off the suit jacket, discar

    Every member of the staff in Hyacinth Hospital was trying their best to save Ollie. Fortunately, the little boy was a tough cookie. He gave everyone a scare, but he ultimately survived without suffering any permanent damage to his body. However, he was getting weaker and weaker. Talia held her son and cried her heart out. Now that she had lost her reputation, she had also lost her right to voice her opinion among the Templetons. She had no choice but to take Archibald’s side.She started vocally blaming Gwynn for not looking at the big picture and keeping him happy.He was feeling guilty, to begin with. So, he couldn’t bear to hear what Talia was saying. Roaring at her, he said, “If you have the time to be sleeping with men out there, you might as well keep Ollie and Jolie company. How else do you think Noah managed to set you up?”Talia felt such intense shame from being lectured in front of everyone that she could just die!With that said, she didn’t truly want to die. So,

    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. Together with Zoe, they helped with the wedding arrangements.

    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
