Indeed, Faye was right. He never truly knew that woman, yet she had given so much for him. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't be alive. His body only managed to withstand being plagued by illness for over twenty years because of the training and medicine she gave him. But what about him?He thought he had never doubted her and remained loyal to her. He might be intelligent, but was a fool when it came to love. He had always misunderstood her. She was young and beautiful with countless men pursuing her. Whenever he saw her with another man, he would get jealous and even dreamed of locking her away. When she was involved in the accident, he didn't doubt her and did his best to help her through the hardship to search for the truth.However, he was merely doing what he thought was right and never took her feelings into consideration. Nor had he discussed his decisions with her. Though he was helping her and did manage to resolve a lot of issues, he alerted her enemy and
Lizzie was hurt by the mocking look in Tracy's eyes. She would never let her darling daughter suffer if she had a choice in the matter.But Tracy didn't understand her hardship and even blamed Lizzie for her current plight. However, Lizzie soon let go of the hurt she felt.Tracy wasn't in the wrong ; she was suffering because of her mother's incompetence. Lizzie was the one who caused her pain. Trembling, she held Tracy. "Tracy, my darling. It's my fault. I was incompetent and that's why you're suffering here in Jorn City … It won't happen anymore—our suffering has come to an end. We have money now so we don't have to suffer again …"Tracy frowned and asked, "Money? Where did you get money?"Tracy once placed all her hopes on her parents and frequently asked them for money. However, over a month had passed and she gave up on her parents altogether.They had lost Brown Corporation—and without Flora, they had nothing. Tracy looked down on them and could only plan to get
Having received a definite answer from Lizzie, Tracy smiled triumphantly. She couldn't just keep such great news to herself. She had previously asked around and knew that Cedric was at odds with Damien. If she shared this good news with Damien, he might be able to exploit it and stir up a scandal. With that thought in mind, she didn't even bother to press Clint about how much money he had in his possession.She hastily went back to her room to freshen up.However, she realized that her key card was missing when she arrived outside her room. Unable to find it, she gave up and quickly returned to the bathroom in her parent's room to change into a new outfit, grooming herself to look more charming. She fixed her long hair and left the room.Lizzie was discussing how to use the money with Clint when she saw Tracy heading outside. "Tracy, where are you going at this time?" "I lost my key card. I'm going downstairs to get a new one," Tracy said. Recalling the money Clin
Tracy couldn't believe that Damien would remain unmoved and close the door after hearing what she had to say. Did she get the information wrong? Wasn't Damien at odds with Cedric? If he was, then why ...Undeterred, Tracy tried to knock on the door again. However, after lingering at the door for two minutes, a tall security guard approached her, claiming she had broken into the VIP area and disturbed the guests there. Despite Tracy's attempts to explain herself, the guard refused to listen and even suspected her of suspicious activities since she didn't stay on the top floor. He threatened to take her to the police station.Jorn City was different from Jeorgia. The Century Hotel was one of the top hotels, and those who could afford to stay here were either rich or powerful. The top floor was exclusive for VIPs, open to the young elites of the four major families, royal relatives, and even leaders of various countries. None of them were people who could be approached so easi
When Cedric finally returned, it was already late at night.Faye had just finished her shower and was sitting at the edge of the bed, her eyes glued to her phone. The events of the day left her feeling slightly overwhelmed. After returning home, she immediately looked into the matters involving Flora and Victor.Studying the documents she found, Faye couldn't describe how she felt. She regretted the harsh words she spoke to Victor today. While Flora was indeed innocent, so was Victor. The only difference was that Victor had chosen to give up on himself over the years while trying to numb his pain, while Flora had bravely left her former life behind and started anew.However, Faye discovered an issue in the information: Flora's medical skills. Once a prodigy in the medical world of Jorn City, her talent should remain even after she changed her name and started a new life in a different city. Faye had never seen Flora display any expertise in medicine. Faye had fallen ill
Flora's information was classified, and Cedric understood why. The reasons were a bit complicated and related to an incident in the past. Cedric didn't know many details but had a general understanding of the matter. But what about Faye? Even though she was Flora's daughter, she was just an ordinary girl. So why was her information classified as well? It was quite puzzling. However, recalling Faye's various personas and extraordinary abilities, Cedric rubbed his chin and realized that she might not be so ordinary after all. Still, her information shouldn't be classified.Cedric was baffled, to say the least. Squirming under Cedric's intense gaze, Faye cleared her throat. "Ahem … Let's talk about my mother first. Don't change the subject.""Aren't you the one changing the subject?" Cedric thought. Cedric wasn't quite happy with the situation. They were married, yet she wouldn't share her secrets with him. Disappointed, he lowered his head gloomily. Faye felt a bi
The next morning, Faye headed to the hospital. She didn't tell Cedric what she wanted to do and simply said she had something to do. She didn't know why she was paying a visit to Victor. Perhaps she felt bad about being so harsh the day before and wanted to check on him. She wanted Victor to get better instead of pressuring him into further despair. To her surprise, she went into the room to find Victor walking around the room, struggling with each step. It had only been a few days since his surgery, so his body was still recovering and each step taken was a challenge.Still, he didn't give up and insisted on exercising in his room. He knew that his health was in a horrible state and if he didn't get stronger soon, Faye couldn't even prescribe him medicine. Without medicine, he would never recover. It had been twenty years and he had finally come to his senses. He couldn't keep wasting away. There was so much that he needed to do. He had delayed far too many thin
"Ah! Watch out! We're gonna crash! Watch out! Damn! This is so exciting! Ah—"Faye drove the taxi and raced through the congested road filled with cars. She was sharp and had great reflexes, so she could calculate the safest distance between cars swiftly, allowing her to narrowly drive by the cars around her, often with just one to two centimeters in between. Naturally, the situation would be relatively safe if the car were moving at a slow speed.However, Faye didn't bother to slow down. She hit the gas and the car sped forward. The exhilaration was so intense that the driver in the backseat couldn't help but exclaim in fear.His shouts didn't stop Faye and she continued to race through the cars that sat in her way.The entire journey was so dangerous that the driver was left slumping on the seat as he clenched onto his fastened seatbelt, unable to scream any longer. Faye, on the other hand, kept a stern expression as she focused on driving, unaffected by her surroundings.
