The first person to receive an invitation was Mason. Since the invite was sent by express mail, Madison mailed it to Gulsberg two days in advance. Mason was puzzled when he got a call from the courier. Had his wife bought something online again? But why would she use his number?Could it be… She bo
Mason handed the invitation letter to Audrey. "Here, see for yourself."She took it with a puzzled expression. After reading it, she was momentarily stunned. "Madison really built a lab…""Our sweetie is every bit as capable as any son, and you're still complaining about her? Hmph, I'm telling you,
"Sit down." Joseph insisted. "Mr. Banks, do you not understand what I'm saying? I'm very busy, and I don't have the time to spare…"Joseph shouted, "I asked you to sit! Are you deaf? Do you need to narrow your eyes at me while I talk to you? Who do you think you are? I show you some respect, and yo
As night fell, the moonlight shone bright and clear. A gust of cold wind blew. Miranda walked to the main entrance of the lab and looked back for a moment. Then, she said, "Transcend, turn off the lights."A robotic voice sounded out of nowhere, "Miranda, please verify authorization."When she look
Miranda opened the car door and was about to get out. Suddenly, Sam called her back, "I have another question."She turned back. "What question?"Sam waved the invitation in his hand. "Does Hansel have one?"Miranda deadpanned, "Can you not mention him?""Well, as expected. I just wanted to confirm.
Miranda helped Paul back to his home and made sure he was settled. After confirming multiple times that he was fully conscious and could take care of himself, only then did she return to her own place. Miranda was sweating from the exertion, so she took off the padded jacket. Perhaps she had been t
Audrey spent her days collecting rent with Mason and focusing on her beauty regime at home. Otherwise, how else could she stay so young, beautiful, and fashionable? When Madison complimented her, it really made her happy."Mom, Dad, let me introduce you to my classmates. They're my close friends who
Joseph only saw a five-story building, seemingly just completed, towering over the empty wastelands and nearby construction sites.Sophie scoffed. "What kind of lab would be built out here? Honestly, it's impressive that Miranda found a place like this to fool everyone."Joseph, who had been calm up
Miranda was momentarily taken aback, then she laughed. "Of course, I brought some for him too! Here, will you take it to him for me?""Sure thing!"Miranda took out a few extra jars and placed them in her car. "You're the best, Miranda!" "I think you and Sebastian are a pretty good match too."Wit
Since staying at the villa, her eyesight improved, and her back had stopped hurting. She was always smiling with a great appetite. Aren even went so far as to call over their private doctor, driver, and bodyguards from home. From the look of things, they planned to stay at the villa for some time.
By force? Sam chuckled. "Well, that's if you actually managed to grab hold of it."Timothy retorted, "How would you know you can't if you haven't tried?""What? Are you going to pursue Aunt Minnie? Heh… First of all, there's no way you'll get past my grandparents."Timothy made no comment on that.
"No way… Are you a big shot? You even brought your bodyguards to get drunk at a bar?" "Who knows?" Sam retorted.…Sam asked his bodyguards to stand closer deliberately so that he could finally have some peace and quiet. He poured himself another drink, but unlike last night, he didn't chug it down
Now, Timothy and Mindy were no longer the childhood sweethearts they once were. Their lives had diverged, with separate marriages and entirely different paths."Do you remember when we were kids, the promises we made about what we wanted to be when we grew up?" Timothy was the first to break the sil
Timothy waved his hand dismissively. "No need, I'll serve myself…""Nonsense! We're all family here." Before Timothy could finish, Lionel had already added two heaping servings of ribs to his plate.Timothy froze, momentarily at a loss for words.Nelly smiled sweetly, but her gaze toward Timothy was
The moment seemed to pull Timothy back in time, to when they were just young adults in their 20s. Their world revolved solely around each other, yet held back by the unspoken.His heart stirred. He opened his mouth to speak, but before he could say anything, Mindy stood up and broke the spell. "I sh
Nelly's smile became slightly strained. "Is that so? Lionel is truly a family man…"As everyone enjoyed their meal, the doorbell suddenly rang. Sam put down his cutlery. "I'll get it," he said, heading to the entryway.A few seconds later, his surprised voice echoed through the house. "Dad? What are
Mindy only asked Miranda to contact Sam because the two of them already knew each other.Back when Lionel's wallet was stolen at the train station, Miranda had introduced Sam to them. She called him "Mr. Cooper" and explained that he was a friend. Later, Sam had even thoughtfully dropped them off at
