"You're the one who saved Roy Keane, aren't you? Hahaha! He wants to ruin the Lynch family for you, so now I'll take care of you first. I'd like to see the look on his face when he finds out …" Anthon yelled frantically as he charged toward Faye. The people around him didn't have time to react until he was right before Faye. He tried to restrain her, hoping to use her against Roy.However, before he could even touch Faye, he was held down by someone. Then, with a powerful twist, Anthon was flung away. "Ah—" Anthon fell heavily to the ground, and the sound of his bones cracking echoed. He writhed in pain on the ground and struggled to get up. Cedric walked up to Anthon and stared him down with a domineering and cold gaze. "You can't lay a hand on my woman even if you try!"Anthon gritted his teeth as he lay sprawled on the ground and glared at Cedric maliciously. "Cedric, who do you think you are? Faye is just a woman who's been played with and tossed aside, yet you treat her
Cedric glanced at Sheldon who had approached him. "It's been a while, Mr. Keane.""It really is you!" Sheldon was both shocked and thrilled. "It's been so long, but you're still as dashing as you were before, Mr. Shaw."Sheldon and Jason were close. The former had once met Cedric when he visited Jorn City."I kept asking Grandpa who he reserved the villas at the top of the mountain for, and he hasn't said a word. Who would have thought it's for you, Mr. Shaw? It's fate." Sheldon beamed. "Mr. Keane Senior has been kind and allowed me the chance to obtain the best villa here in Star Gaze Bay at the very top of the mountain," Cedric said. Indeed, the villas at the top were reserved for Felton as they were located in a beautiful area, spacious and perfect for recuperation. Felton had poor health and Roy wanted him to be able to rest at any time when he came to Jeorgia. However, because of Cedric's involvement, both Felton and Jason were left with the villas on the second row.
Anthon was left in utter shock, convinced that this had to be some kind of joke. So the man with Faye wasn't a hotel employee? Who was Cedric Shaw, then? He shook his head frantically and refused to believe it. Anthon couldn't fathom that Faye could have possibly found someone better than him, thinking she was merely a woman who cheated and seduced men wherever she went. In his mind, she didn't deserve happiness, and something had to be amiss.Anthon's friend continued his story. "I looked at the photos my colleague sent me and the girl in them was Faye. Tracy had asked for the photos at the time, so I sent them over. I was going to tell you what happened, but my girlfriend saw me talking to Tracy and got jealous. "I had to appease her and didn't have time to say much. Anyway, you needed evidence that Faye was cheating on you, right? It doesn't matter who the man was."Anthon could not hear what his friend was saying after that. His head was buzzing as he stood frozen in place.
Penny followed Faye, Cedric, and Lucy to Sheldon's office.She observed Faye as she signed the contract and then handed over more than a hundred million for the house.At that moment, she felt like her world had been turned upside down. She had previously heard about the most powerful family in Jorn City—the Shaw family. However, Faye was the daughter of the Brown family. Just a few days ago, the Brown family had made the news due to issues such as unpaid construction costs and quality safety issues. All of Jeorgia knew that the Brown family was going bankrupt, so how could a young woman in her twenties like Faye have so much money?Many might assume that Faye was wealthy due to her marriage to Cedric, but Penny didn't share that view.When Faye paid, she did so calmly. It was almost as if a hundred million meant nothing to her. The confidence and pride that radiated from her could not have been the result of living off a man's wealth. At this moment, Faye was positively gl
The Keane family truly lived up to their reputation as one of the four most powerful families in Jeorgia. Though they had not been overly harsh in their approach, the Lynch family couldn't survive more than a week. Anthon and Michael were taken in for questioning by the police, and all the Lynch family's assets were frozen. The Lynch family, a once notable family in Jeorgia, crumbled without even making a sound. When Clint received this news, he was practically hysterical. He hid in his villa and drank for two consecutive days. His appearance was completely disheveled with his unshaven stubble and tousled hair.On the other hand, Lizzie was still dressed elegantly. Upon seeing the state Clint was in, she lost patience and began to berate him. "Clint, can't you pull yourself together? You promised to give our daughter and me a good life, but look at you now. What have you become? The Lynch family is done for, and the Brown family is next. "The Keane family hasn't put fo
Aside from going to work, Faye spent the following days primarily at her newly acquired villa, overseeing the workers as they decorated and arranged the place.The renovation was nearly complete, but many details in the interior design required her personal touch. She entrusted the renovation tasks to Cedric who—given his stature in Jeorgia— considered this a trivial matter. On top of that, Cedric had excellent taste and selected beautiful furniture. Faye visited when she had some free time to make minor adjustments to the furniture placement.Meanwhile, tension continued to rise within Light Moon Designs.After Faye's unexpected announcement of a competition, the designers were in a state of anxious preparation for their presentations. Those who had urgent projects on their hands found themselves even busier, highlighting the importance of teamwork. A well-organized team, even when dealing with tight schedules and heavy workloads, managed to avoid feeling overwhelmed. Con
Jamie's question caught everyone by surprise. Slyvia smiled. "Ms. Sawyer, what kind of a question is that? If it's not Priscilla's design, whose can it be? Yours?"The others whispered amongst themselves. One of them said, "Ordinary people can't possibly produce a dress this beautiful, right?""Yeah. Priscilla excels in gowns, and this is the dress she created for Mrs. Rockley. It clearly suits Mrs. Rockley's style and it perfectly aligns with her age. It's a perfect fit for the theme.""Of course it's her original design. Why else would Ms. Fischer have chosen it?"Priscilla was a little nervous at first, especially when she met Jamie's sharp gaze. However, after hearing what her colleagues said, she gained confidence.If everyone else had approved of the design, it didn't matter what Jamie said. She shrugged and looked at Jamie casually. "Is there a problem with the design?"She raised an eyebrow and silently warned Jamie to not cause a scene, implying that it would be Jami
Faye had been standing outside the door for quite some time, observing as Jamie went from being furious to calm as she countered Priscilla's words. Jamie had finally stopped suppressing her emotions and Faye was relieved to see that.Jaime had always given off a soft and gentle impression, but deep down, she had a fierce spirit. It was her resilience that caught Faye's attention in the first place.Faye noticed that Jamie's design was stolen a while ago but hadn't said anything. She was waiting for Jamie to discover it on her own and expose the culprit by her own means. Upon seeing Faye and Lincoln enter the room, everyone stood up to greet them. Soon after, silence followed.Faye and Lincoln took their seats at the head of the table. Faye glanced around the room and calmly said, "We don't have much time. I'll give you twenty minutes to resolve this."Jamie looked at Faye with gratitude, but before she could say anything, Priscilla spoke up. "I'm glad to hear that, Ms. Fischer.
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. In simpler terms, it was about building his portfolio.To go to Pembrook, he must have a good relationship with the security team. Now that the captain of the Pembrook Security team had actively approached him, he had nothing to lose. However, Official
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. Over the past few days, scandals about her have circulated on the internet. Even information about her age when she started sleeping around and the number of men she slept with for money was released. Evidence of her plotting to steal Anthon away and bring down the Lynch family was released as well. On top of that, there was also information about her working with her mother to chase Flora out and claim Brown Corporation as their own. Every misdeed Tracy had ever committed was exposed before the public's eyes. She became the target of all condemnation. There would be different people gathering near their apartment. As soon as they stepped out of the apartment, they would get beaten. The horrible things that Clint and Lizzie did were later released onto the internet as well. The family of three couldn't even get
Monica suffered from severe depression ever since she married Ethan. She was a strong-willed woman who refused to show any weakness. Even when she was hurt, she would suffer alone and kept giving, not asking for anything in return. Ethan married her but didn't love her. On top of that, he picked on her at every turn and gave her the cold shoulder. She began to get depressed a year after marrying him. With her friend's help, she started treatment. However, the treatment process was painful. Throughout the three years she was married to Ethan, she endured his humiliation without rest, which made recovering much harder. One day, she went to the beach and came close to getting washed away. It was Brody who saved her. Brody went there to look for inspiration for his paintings. When he saw Monica, he was sitting afar and drawing. This painting won Brody countless awards. Just as he was about to leave, there was a high tide, and Monica came close to getting washed away.
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. Ethan waited an hour before releasing the photos. Everyone switched from cursing at him to cursing at him and Tracy. This was not what he expected. He gritted his teeth. Just as he contemplated how to deal with this, he received a bunch of photos. Apart from the intimate photos between him and Tracy, there were ones of Tracy with other men as well. There was even proof that Tracy got an abortion when she was still a teenager. Going through everything, he finally realized how wrong he had been. He misjudged Tracy and recklessly divorced Monica. He didn't love Monica and resented her for forcing him to marry her. Howeve
"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. Will you still love him even if that's the case?"These questions were confrontati
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. "Why don't you tell me?""Ethan and Tracy were caught in bed together. Didn't you know?""I knew." He pinched her face. "I was the one who asked Monica to go over."Faye rolled her eyes and pouted, losing her interest in the matter. "Why are you asking me if you already knew everything?""You saw it with your own eyes, and I'm just guessing. I prefer to hear it from
