"Mom, why isn't that old hag, Flora, getting kicked out?" Tracy asked.

Downstairs in the hospital, Tracy and Lizzy had been waiting for half an hour. Tracy frowned in annoyance.

Lizzy's gaze deepened. "Don't be anxious. Let's wait it out. That fool, Mrs. Rockley, spoils her daughter like anything. She'll definitely cause a ruckus when she hears of this. Maybe Faye is there, which is why it's getting dragged out longer than it should."

Tracy scoffed. "It's like Faye has turned into a different person since coming back. She's so gross."

Lizzy patted her hands. "Don't worry. I could send her mother to the hospital. Would I be scared of her?"

Faye smiled in glee. "That's true. Without Anthon and Dad's protection, she's nothing. Let's just wait for her to beg us for the money to pay for her mother's bills."

Lizzy smirked.

They weren't just here to provoke Flora. They were mostly here to visit Wendy and seize the chance to butter up Hank's aunt.

Tracy and Wendy happened to be classm

    Cedric soon returned with their lunch. He had bought quite a few packs of it.They all suited Faye's tastes.Flora couldn't help glancing at Cedric again.He was very calculative. He had a firm grasp of what Faye liked."How can we possibly finish all of these?" Flora's tone was unpleasant. "Wasting food is a shameful thing to do."Cedric smiled. "I didn't know what you liked, so I bought a little of everything. It's alright if you can't finish it all. I'll feed it to stray dogs afterward."There had to be a reason why he was being so considerate.Flora raised her eyebrows. "What if I don't like any of it? Are you planning to feed it all to the dogs?"Cedric smiled. "If you don't like it, I'll just go out to buy you something you like. I'll eat these myself tonight."Flora laughed. "What about the dogs?"Cedric didn't mind. "It doesn't matter as long as you're happy," he told her.Faye glanced at him. Flora was taunting him on purpose, but he was still so good-natured."Mom

    Light Moon Designs was a multinational fashion design company founded in Yvalia. In the past, there were only dedicated sales counters for its products. Five years ago, a main office was set up.Rumor had it that their global chief designer, Faye Fischer, had been the reason for the setting up of the main office. Faye Fischer was, of course, Faye's pseudonym as a designer. This was also the reason Lincoln and the others respected her so much.Today, Light Moon Designs was hiring a chief assistant, a designer, and two assistant designers. The chief assistant would report to Faye, so she had to be there in person. It was also why she was scoping out the interview venue alone.There were only four vacancies, but thousands had submitted their résumés. Only 50 or 60 had been shortlisted to be interviewed. It was obvious how tough the competition was. The interviews were scheduled to start in more than ten minutes. Yet, the lounge was already packed with people.Some of the more nerv

    "How interesting!" Lincoln smiled slyly. He stood in the security room, watching the scene unfolding in the corridor. "Ms. Fischer is much younger and more fun than I expected." He was already starting to imagine the miracles they could create together. It filled him with energy and drive.In the corridor, Stacy had no choice but to apologize to Faye and Priscilla. Still, she didn't forget to come up with various excuses to explain her behavior. In the end, she made it out to be the young woman and Faye's fault. Faye said nothing. A meaningful smile played on her lips.Lincoln checked the time. "It's almost time. Let's go." He smiled.He then led the director of the design department and the HR manager to the interview venue. When they arrived, things had settled down. Everyone was quietly waiting for the interviews to begin, except for … Faye!She'd gone to the restroom and happened to run into Stacy when she was done. Faye quietly washed her hands, but Stacy deliberatel

    Silence descended upon the corridor. The atmosphere became a little awkward. There were no words to describe Lincoln's expression. He cleaned up well but he looked … like a waiter? Even so, this was the first time someone had ever said that about him. He couldn't help bursting into laughter."What are you laughing at?" Anthon frowned. "I can't believe you're selling yourself at such a young age. You're a disgrace to all men!"Faye laughed with a hand over her mouth. She glanced at Lincoln, her gaze seemingly asking, "Are you going to stand for this?"He wasn't, of course. Lincoln was amused and exasperated as he held his head high and looked at Anthon. "Where did this clown come from? Is this how you leave an impression on someone?"Anthon was about to retort when he saw his father, Michael Lynch, running toward them excitedly. "M-Mr. Colt, is that you?"Anthon was stunned. "Dad, what are you talking about?""Mr. Colt, it's great to see you again." Michael pushed Anthon

    When Faye knocked on the door, she felt a sharp gaze on her. It was soon replaced by a look of astonishment. She frowned and gestured for Cedric to roll the window down. However, before he could, a bunch of hooligans in black ran over and circled Faye. The man in the lead checked his phone, then looked at Faye. He sneered, "She's the one. Let's get her!"Faye saw five or six men lunging at her with knives. She wasn't in a good mood to begin with, and this only made it worse. She rolled her shoulders and watched as they came at her. "I was just thinking of destressing. At least I have some punching bags now …" It was also a good opportunity to show Cedric the consequences of betraying her.With that thought in mind, Faye slapped the hand of the man in the lead, making him drop his knife. Then, she made quick work of him and flipped him onto his back. Standing beside the car made it harder for her to unleash her full potential, so she moved away from it.Soon enough, she jum

    After dropping Lucy off, Faye and Cedric returned to their apartment. It had been furnished and decorated. It looked brand new. Faye nodded with satisfaction. "Not too bad, dude. Is there any money left on the card I gave you? Let me know if you've run out."Cedric wondered whether he genuinely seemed like a boy toy. Still, he couldn't be bothered to explain. "I didn't spend much. Don't worry about the money." Then, he went to the guest room. The rest of the night passed in peace. They both slept soundly.The next morning, Faye was rudely awakened by her phone ringing. The carer she'd hired for her mother told her that Clint was at the hospital. He and Flora were having an argument.Damn, these pests just refused to leave them alone! Faye quickly washed up and ran out of her room. Cedric happened to be dressed and ready to leave. He was confused when he saw her in such a hurry. "Where are you going?""The hospital!" She put on her shoes and turned to leave.Cedric grabbe

    "How did you know something would go wrong with Brown Corporation?" Faye appraised Cedric after Clint left.Cedric smiled. "The shop downstairs had the news on. They reported on Brown Corporation's shoddy construction and how their employees were being owed their salaries. I don't think there's anyone in Jeorgia who hasn't heard about it by now."Faye nodded. She wasn't surprised in the least. "The truth would've come out sooner or later." All she'd done was speed up the process."Faye, you knew about this?" Flora sat up worriedly.Faye let Cedric into the ward and helped Flora up. "Mom, don't worry about it. If Clint can't handle this, it'll be tough for Brown Corporation to survive much longer."Brown Corporation was Flora's heart and soul. Though she'd left it in Clint's care after falling sick, she probably wouldn't be able to accept it if it were to go bankrupt. As Faye fed Flora, she said, "The company will be fine!""Really?" Flora sighed. "Over the years, many board mem

    The news about Brown Corporation's shoddy construction and the owing of their employees' salaries had spread like wildfire. Soon, Clint arrived at the company. A group of employees and homeowners had gathered there in protest. They were demanding to be paid or refunded. There were also reporters getting interviews and taking photographs.Lizzie was in charge of handling the finances, so she couldn't be absolved of the blame. If not for the security guards protecting her, she probably would've been beaten up long ago. The company's senior executives were scared and trying to control the situation. But the crowd's insults and swearing overwhelmed their voices.And so, no one could hold the fort. The reporters didn't even know who to interview. Clint was furious when he saw this. He plunged into the crowd and held his arms up, trying to settle the chaos. "Everyone, please calm down! There's nothing to worry about. Brown Corporation's been around for two decades. We've always

    Official Hart was well aware that if he indeed went to Pembrook, he couldn't successfully assume the role of the leader without the support of the security team. It wasn't that he underestimated himself, but Pembrook was a peculiar city. Ordinary officials who went there could only be puppets. Even those who thought they had some capabilities, like the previous mayor who attempted to overthrow the security team, faced a tremendously tragic fate. His attempt to gain full control over Pembrook doomed his political career and might even cost him his life. Official Hart didn't want to be a puppet, and he certainly didn't want to lose his life. Going to Pembrook was about enhancing his qualifications to open up more opportunities.

    Faye had made arrangements for Jeorgia, while Cedric started an investigation into what the Anderson and Garcia families were doing. Faye knew that this was a trap and that nothing happened by coincidence. However, she didn't know what the culprit's motive was. She didn't have to wait for long because she received a phone call from Tracy later that afternoon. "Faye, you could've come at me if you were upset. Why did you target Grandma? She treated you well, yet you killed her over such trivial matters. Are you even human?"Faye smirked. "Since when do you care about her, Tracy?""What are you talking about? That's our grandmother. You did this, didn't you?""Would you believe me if I said I didn't do it?" Faye sneered. "Don't think that you can do anything you want just because you married someone rich. Faye, don't even dream of getting your murderer of a mother out! I won't let you. You better come back to Jeorgia, or this won't ever be over."With that, Tracy hung up.

    Clark's words only enraged Flora. Eleanor abused Faye when she was a child, which led to Faye getting sick repeatedly. She even allowed Lizzie to go into their home to poison Faye while Flora was at work. Faye suffered through so much hardship at the time and came close to dying. She was already poisoned when she was pregnant with Faye, which meant Faye was born with poison in her body. Though Flora tried her best to counter the poison, Faye was still more frail than ordinary children. Eleanor knew that Faye wasn't Clint's child, so she had always been displeased with her. "Had I known that she's the kind of person who can harm a child, I would never leave Faye with her." Rage filled Flora's eyes. Just as she was about to leave, Eleanor started coughing on the bed. Clark shouted and ran outside to get the doctor. Until the doctor arrived, there were two minutes when Flora was alone with Eleanor. It wasn't until the doctor arrived that Flora found out Clark didn't even

    Lizzie and Clint were momentarily stunned, confused by Tracy's words. "I just received a call from Uncle. He said that Grandma passed away and we need to go home."Clint jolted and collapsed onto the ground. "What?"Tracy smirked. "They can't reach you or Mom, so he called me instead. We need to go home right now.""Ha! So what if she's dead? She doesn't see us as family, so why should we go back?" Lizzie scoffed in contempt. Eleanor disliked her right from the start. If Eleanor didn't stop her from marrying Clint at the very beginning, Flora would have never gotten married to Clint. Though Eleanor helped get rid of Flora in the end, she continued to mistreat Lizzie when she finally married Clint. Eleanor resented Flora for being too strong-willed and disrespectful. However, she looked down on Lizzie for not being as talented as Flora and incapable of bringing more profit to the Brown family. She kept comparing Lizzie to Flora and bossed her around. Lizzie remained patie

    "Damn it! Damn it! It has to be Faye! This has to be her doing. Damn it!" Tracy pushed everything on the table to the ground. Her face twisted viciously with anger.

Evidence of her plotting to steal Anthon away and bring down the Lynch family was released as well.

    Ethan sent the photos and returned to his apartment to wait while drinking. Due to the interview that took place at noon, Ethan's divorce stirred up a storm on Facebook. At the moment, he didn't need to pay to obtain attention. After Tracy declared her innocence, everyone considered Ethan a jerk who heartlessly searched for an excuse to divorce Monica.

    "You look alright. Who would have thought you are the kind of man who would cheat on your wife?" Eleanor didn't mince her words and immediately kept her distance. Mandy smiled. "Tracy, look at what you've done to your boyfriend.""She stole Faye's boyfriend and sent Anthon's family to prison. Now, she's here destroying Mr. Garcia's family. He lost everything because of her. How interesting," Clark chimed in. He still remembered how Tracy insulted him when he tried to ask Ethan for money. He held a grudge. Tracy's expression darkened. She wanted to run, but the reporters had directed their microphones at her. "Miss, why did you choose to be a homewrecker?""Did you know that Mr. Garcia got a divorce because of you?""Do you know how he got to where he is now? It's because of the alliance he formed with the Dalding family through marriage. Without the Dalding family's help, he may have nothing.

    Faye learned about the Brown family being taken to the police station the following morning. Just as she got up, she received a call from the police station informing her that her relatives had been detained due to a brawl. She was urged to head over to mediate the fight. Faye smiled. "I'm sorry, but they are not my relatives. Please handle it according to the law." After hanging up, she looked at Cedric, who was waiting for breakfast. She hugged him from behind and said with a smile, "Guess what interesting scene I witnessed last night?"Cedric turned his head to study the triumphant look on her face. He smiled.
