Flora laughed upon hearing Yvette's explanation. "Are you worried that your brother-in-law is going to fall for that woman?"Yvette snorted and didn't say anything, which meant that she was implicitly agreeing with what Flora said. She'd always been her true self in front of Flora. Even when faced with her mother, Cherry, Yvette had to put on a fake persona too."It's been three years. Since you like Chandler, I think you should quickly divorce your husband, Ian. Although Ian's net worth is over a billion, it doesn't compare to Chandler's family fortune. His business empire extends to the rest of the world. Their net worths aren't in the same league." Flora was envious of Yvette's options when it came to selecting a man for herself. If she was Yvette's age, she would definitely try her best to get acquainted with a guy like Chandler.Speaking of divorce, Yvette opened her eyes and said to the makeup artist, Michelle, "Hold off on the makeup for now. I have a lot on my mind, and I mu
Erin took the tissue that Asa handed her, and amidst her tears, she broke into a smile. Seeing how well Chandler had educated Asa and how kind the little boy was, she was overwhelmed with gratitude. She wished she could plant a kiss on Chandler to thank him for bringing up their son so well."Thank you, Asa. Did I scare you just now?" Erin wiped away her tears.Asa shook his head quietly. "I used to see Grandma cry all the time. Whenever she mentioned my mom, she would cry for a long time... But then Aunt Yvette started accompanying Grandma more, so Grandma is much better now. Miss Pamela, I don't like seeing you cry. It makes me unhappy."Erin nodded. "I'm sorry, Asa. I won't cry anymore in the future. I was just thinking about a friend earlier. She's also good at drawing. Would you like to see the comics she drew?"Asa was immediately intrigued, and a smile returned to his face. "Yes, I want to see!"Erin smiled and stood up. Then, she went to the sofa to retrieve her bag. From
After returning to the city, Erin's comic had only depicted her approaching the stage of recovering her appearance. Although she'd already drawn some digital drafts on the computer, she hadn't uploaded them yet.She hesitated because she didn't know how the plot should unfold next. Would the truth be revealed in an intense manner, or should she let her son, Asa, accept her before proceeding? This hesitation caused her to stop drawing the comic for several days, which drove the editors of the comic website crazy.The moment Erin opened the chat tool in the morning after waking up, the sound of notifications popping up one after another on her laptop was extremely jarring.Editor: AsaelMama, are you okay?Editor: Are you sick?Editor: Hello?Editor: Has your account been hacked?Editor: Please respond as soon as you receive this!Editor: AsaelMama ...Editor: Are you giving up on the comic?...Following that was a series of crying emojis. The editor's reaction caused Erin to
Asa's appearance made Erin feel extremely awkward. Regaining her senses, she pushed Paulo away.Erin walked past Paulo to go to Asa, crouching to ask, "Asa, are you thirsty? I'll pour you a glass of water."Asa's gaze looked like a grown-up at that moment, and he asked calmly, "Miss Pamela, is this man your boyfriend?"As soon as he asked that, Paulo immediately came to him, bending over to say with a little smugness, "How smart of you. She's my girlfriend. Do you have an opinion about that?"Erin got angry. "What nonsense are you talking about? How can you say that to my son—I mean, my student?" She was so anxious she almost let it slip. "Asa, don't believe this man. He's just joking with you."Asa looked at Paulo calmly, saying with a faint disdain, "Sir, do you feel a great sense of accomplishment from joking with me?"Paulo straightened his back with a mocking gaze and said "Wow, kid, do you know what a sense of accomplishment means?""Of course, I do, but I'm not going to t
At 8 pm on Sunday, Chandler got out of his Maybach, feeling a little emotional as he looked at the old neighborhood.The hacker team of four had already disbanded two years ago. All four of them had "turned over a new leaf" and had started their families back in their hometown with the hefty pension given by Chandler.Chandler had never done a background check on them this whole time, giving the four loyal hackers full privacy.Three of them were no longer in contact with Chandler, and only the leader at that time was still keeping in touch with him.The leader revealed his details on his own to Chandler, and it turned out that he was a local and his name was Pax Lester. After he returned to his hometown, he opened up his own private investigation firm. He usually helped the residents in the neighborhood find lost pets and some rich married people find evidence of their spouses' having affairs. His life was very fulfilling and ordinary.Probably none of the residents in this old c
At 10 am on Monday, Erin arrived at a fashion magazine's office in Dunwich Garden. This was a women's magazine and its name was very interesting—Airing, which sounded similar to Erin. Holly named it after Erin to honor her.Erin came to Airing that day for an interview. She had submitted her comics to the magazine previously. That was because Airing had published a supplement last month, adding emotional stories, comics, and some promotional products that were targeting women into it.Not long after Erin entered the reception area for the magazine, Holly came out of her office and whispered something to her secretary. When Holly returned to her office again, she saw Erin waiting in the reception area from the corner of her eye, so she immediately asked her secretary. Once her secretary informed her, she came straight to Erin.Erin had been watching Holly's movements through the glass door, so she was already incredibly excited and was forcing herself to hold her tears back.At th
Yvette almost lost her footing as she was wearing heels when Flora supported her. Flora cursed, "Who the hell are you? How dare you push Yvette!"Yvette had already taken off her sunglasses at that point, and anger gleamed in her eyes. "It's you! Don't be a busybody, Pamela! Just be an art teacher! This is a grudge between Holly and me. It's none of your business!"Holly was about to ask Erin to stay out of it, but Erin stood in front of her, sneering. "So what if I've made this my business? Are you going to hit me? Do it if you have the guts!"Erin was very disappointed and angry. She never expected her sister to be so ill-tempered. She immediately hit someone without saying anything at all, and the person she hit was Erin's best friend! Erin absolutely would not allow that, even if Yvette was her sister!"Pamela, what's your relationship with Holly? Does she deserve for you to stand up for her like that?" Yvette wanted to hit her, but she saw that the car of the paparazzi who fol
Upon hearing Erin's words, Chandler frowned a little as he stood in place, giving it a thought for a while. Then, he walked over to the couch, looking at her from the corner of his eye, and said, "Why don't we have a seat and talk about it, Miss Pamela."Erin took a deep breath and said, "Alright."She walked over to the couch as well. Not long after, both of them were seated.Chandler leaned against the back of the leather couch, crossing his long, handsome legs. His gaze was calm as he asked, "Why are you so sure I'll listen to Yvette and fire you?"Erin deflected the question by saying, "Yvette said I'm prone to violence, so it's too dangerous for me to be around Asa.""Do you think you're prone to violence?" Chandler asked calmly.Erin thought about it seriously, reflecting on her past. About two minutes later, she said with certainty, "I don't think I'm prone to violence. If Yvette didn't truly infuriate me, I never would have slapped her."Upon hearing that, Chandler said
