The Xavier family’s banquet finally ended at 10.00 pm.Right then, the news on the Internet had already become sensational to the maximum point.All kinds of hot topics were trending.[The most beautiful lady in Sea City in the past is stunningly back!][Throwbacks to the scandals of the most beautiful lady in Sea City!][Adina Daugherty is cutting ties with the Daugherty family.][Daugherty Corporation’s shares will belong to…] …… The Daugherty family instantly became the headlines of all the news platforms in Sea City.When Aaron saw the news on the television, he angrily smashed the remote control. “I should’ve strangled her to death! She dared to cut off ties with the Daugherty family in front of the media. How dare she say that!”“Dear, please don’t get angry. That girl clearly came back to take revenge on us.” Ruby scornfully pouted. “Cutting off ties with us is better. In this way, she won’t have the reason to take away those shares.”After they thought that Adina d
Dew sighed in relief.She wanted to become Mrs. Winters, so she did not want to get involved with these dumb issues.Since her father was willing to get involved, she would not look for trouble.The Daugherty family took action very quickly. At 6.00 am the next morning, the press conference was ready.Aaron appeared in front of the cameras like a lovely father. He did not sleep the entire night, hence he appeared to be haggard and gloomy. Before he spoke, some people had already sympathized with him.“Addy’s my daughter. She’s my first child. My love for her can’t be described in words… Five years ago, she made a terrible mistake, and I became furious. I grounded her so that she could reflect on her actions for a few months, and that approach was wrong of me. But, if all of you think about it from a father’s perspective, you would understand me.“Later, she set fire to the mansion and tried to burn the Daugherty family, causing Daugherty Corporation to lose more than a billion do
After Aaron held the press conference, public opinion on the Internet did become slightly better. The price of their stocks, which had been going down, also gradually started to increase. Everything seemed to be developing in a good direction. However, in less than half an hour, a video broke the fake harmony. The netizens who watched the show without participating in the discussion could not help but express their opinions as well. “Oh, my goodness! What era is she living in? She dares to hire hitmen to murder people! How bold of her!” “Those people are clearly Dew’s bodyguards, and they wanted to kill Adina!” “Luckily, Adina was smart. She grabbed Dew as her hostage in time. Otherwise, she would have definitely died in that graveyard.” “She’s capable of doing such a ruthless act to her own family. Would she be more vicious when she deals with her competitors in business?” “Daugherty Corporation has undergone considerable development. They must have used a lot of vic
After a long time, a childish but deep voice finally came from the other end of the line. “Mom, why are you calling me?”“George, only you can help me now. I’ve run out of options…” Dew covered her lips, and her tears kept falling.She said in a sobbing tone, “Someone is viciously attacking Daugherty Corporation. There’s tons of negative news about Daugherty Corporation on the Internet now. The corporation’s stock prices have also dropped to the minimum now. If this progresses, the company will need to announce bankruptcy…” While she spoke, there were audible tapping sounds from the keyboard on the other end of the line.A while later, the deep voice could be heard again. “Mom, Daugherty Corporation has a lot of wealth, so it won’t go bankrupt just because of this. All the negative rumors on the Internet now are based on a fifty-four-second surveillance video. Mom, may I know if you’re the person in the video?”“It’s not me… Why would it be me?” Dew instinctively started to den
When Winters Corporation announced their new project collaborator, it shocked everyone.At this critical time, Winters Corporation actually chose to cooperate with Daugherty Corporation. This was something that no one had expected.“The stock price of Daugherty Corporation is going down. Why would Winters Corporation choose this company?”“These two companies never cooperated in the past. Why would they cooperate at this crucial moment? Unless Winters Corporation helps Daugherty Corporation, Daugherty Corporation will be ruined this time.”“Daugherty Corporation is really lucky!”“The members of the Daugherty family really have some tricks up their sleeve! They were actually able to cling on to the Winters family.”“Would anyone still dare to offend the Daugherty family this time?”“Not at all! They have all run away!”The share price of Daugherty Corporation was restored to the normal level in half a day. It was like the crisis last night had never happened.When Adina read t
The boy leaned on Old Mrs. Xavier’s knees and said with a soft voice, “Mel just likes to eat Mommy’s food. She slims down these days because we are staying with the Xavier family.”Old Mrs. Xavier chuckled. “If I don’t let your mommy cook, will I be a bad person?”“No, I just want you to try Mommy’s cooking. It’s really good.” Alden blinked. “You’ll know when you try.”“Alden, you’re really a good boy!”Old Mrs. Xavier affectionately caressed Alden’s head.He was just a four-year-old boy. Not only did he take care of his sister, but he also helped Addy handle a lot of work.Considerate boys like this were really lovely.Meanwhile, Adina prepared food in the kitchen.The two kids were born prematurely, so they were weaker than their peers since they were little. When they reached the age that they could eat proper food, they also refused to eat. So, she started researching how to cook.Before she was eighteen years old, she was a lady who did not do house chores. But after she
Golden Sun was a prestigious kindergarten. It looked like a castle.Dew held Harold’s hand to walk inside, but her hand was swung away by Harold fiercely.Her gaze was filled with coldness, but she forcefully suppressed it. “Harold, this is your dad’s decision. Why are you angry at me?”“Do I look angry to you?” Harold scoffed. “I just don’t want you to touch me.”“You!”Dew was so angry that she nearly lost her composure.She took a deep breath. “You’d better behave well and not cause any trouble, or I won’t be able to explain it to your father.”“Aren’t we handling the suspension procedure now? What trouble can I cause?” Harold looked irritated. “Quickly go and sign. I’ll wait for you outside.”“You’d better wait here. If you dare run away, your dad won’t spare you.”Dew turned back on her high heels, and anger kept filling her heart.She should have strangled Harold, the b*stard, to death.She raised him, and he just kept causing her trouble!Harold sat on the staircase
It was really a small world when they could also meet the man’s son in this place.But this was none of his business.Alden continued pushing Melody on the swing.Five minutes later, Harold carried a bunch of toys and ran to Alden. “I will give you these toys.”Alden frowned. “What?”“I will give my toys to you, you lend Mel to play with me,” Harold lifted his chin and said arrogantly. He always played with these toys in kindergarten. An airplane cost a few ten thousand dollars.The teacher said these toys were very expensive, so they never allowed other children to play with them.He did not believe that Melody’s brother would not be interested in these toys.But Alden was not interested. His eyes were filled with coldness as well. “My sister is a person, not a toy.”As soon as he spoke, he emitted a cold aura.Harold was shocked.Why did this person’s tone of speaking sound like George?He pouted. “Tell me, what should I do to make you let Melody play with me?”“You ca
