Fiona was startled as she had never seen Mindy so serious before. "Min, what's going on?""Mom, Dad, let's sit down and talk," Mindy said. The elderly couple followed her to the couch and sat down. She added, "Lionel, Mimi, you two should listen too."They exchanged glances and obediently sat down
Back when Mindy's disappearance was confirmed, Fiona couldn't help but suspect Nelly when the police failed to find her and had to give up. The two sisters had gone out together, yet only Mindy was abducted. If the abductors were after money, wouldn't it have made more sense to capture both of them
Mindy revealed the truth of what happened all those years ago to her parents. After they learned about the truth, their anger and hatred were inevitable. Fortunately, their health wasn't affected, nor did either of them faint on the spot. Mindy felt greatly relieved when she saw them calm down. Af
"So, you mean…" the first person trailed off."I'm thinking about Ms. Minnie's daughter, the granddaughter of the Garrison family!" the man replied. "I heard she's gorgeous, has a great figure, and the elders adore her. If she takes a liking to me, I'll save myself more than ten years of hard work!"
Fiona held Mindy's hand tightly. "It's been over 20 years. I never dared to dream that this day would come. Fortunately, fate hadn't treated me too harshly and finally allowed our family to reunite."Seeing her reddened eyes, Aren chuckled to lighten the mood. "Have you forgotten what the doctor sai
"Ugh! Are you trying to curse me? What are you even thinking?" Winter rolled her eyes in exasperation. "Falling for Hansel? Am I that desperate?""No, of course not!" Zach grinned and glanced behind her. "Did you come alone?""Yes?" "Did the Jefferson family send you as their representative?""Jeez
Aren extended his hand, and everyone's gaze followed the direction he was pointing toward…Mindy and Lionel walked to the stage together, hand in hand. They became the center of attention instantly. Aren said with a smile, "This is my daughter, Minnie Garrison, and my son-in-law, Lionel Sutton. I k
Calvin exclaimed once again, "Miranda is actually the granddaughter of the Garrison family?" The more he thought about it, the more unbelievable it seemed!Wait a minute…"Doesn't that make Sam and her… cousins?" This realization hit Calvin like a lightning bolt. What kind of dramatic plot twist wa
Suddenly, Miranda stopped walking. She turned to face Paul and said seriously, "Thank you, Paul, for coming to Lumberville to spend Christmas with me. And… thank you for being in my life."Paul was slightly taken aback. Then, he gently squeezed her hand. "You dummy. I should be the one thanking you.
Yale wasn't too pleased. "But… I was just trying to clear the way for you. Am I wrong for doing that?"He couldn't help but feel a little wronged. Paul softened his tone and explained, "That's not what I meant. First off, Mom had already agreed to me coming to Lumberville. There was no need for lie
"Oh, you're back? What were you guys doing?" Lionel came out of the kitchen, still wearing his apron. He looked a little puzzled when he saw everyone gathered around Paul and Miranda. "Dad…" Miranda was about to go over with the shopping bags, but Paul had already taken them from her before she cou
Jenny's usage of the phrase, "real boyfriend", was quite interesting. As if Miranda even had a fake boyfriend before.Jack spoke up immediately. "Let me do the honors. This is Paul Jefferson, a professor at Bedford College's Faculty of Physics. He's the youngest leading figure in the country for the
A man stood at the entrance. He was tall and imposing, and he had a cold expression on his face. Miranda stood next to him and looked equally stoic. Jenny was taken aback. Shock flashed in her eyes as she asked, "You… Who are you?"Paul stepped forward confidently, still holding Miranda's hand. "I
Quincey couldn't take it anymore when she saw her father getting shut down. "Mom, that's enough. Don't push me too far!""Oh?" Jenny snapped. "Hear that? I'm pushing you too far? Who's the one pushing here, me or you?"Quincey let out a cold laugh. "Don't take your bad mood out on me or Dad. We're n
Harold came in behind Jenny. He was so quiet that his presence was easily overlooked. Meanwhile, Quincey barely said a word as she kept her head down, her eyes glued to the phone. "Rena, you arrived really early this time. I've never seen you and Leonard so enthusiastic before. Guess things have ch
Miranda stood in front of the mirror, tidying up her messy hair. Behind her, Paul was fully dressed. He walked over and wrapped his arms around her. "Stop it, I just fixed my hair… Look, you even smudged my lipstick," Miranda grumbled, pushing him away. "Mimi, the way you said that makes it sound
Miranda glanced at her phone. It was a call from Paul. "Hello, Paul, Merry—"Before she could finish her sentence, she heard the sound of heavy breathing on the other end. Taken aback, Miranda froze for a moment. "What's…""Come outside, Mimi.""What?""I'm out front at your entrance. Come out."As
