At the end of the corridor was the chairman’s office. The office door was ajar, and they could see a man in black lying on the chair. “Daddy…”Melody smiled and instantly wanted to run towards that man. Alden grabbed her wrist with a darkened expression. He then said, “Daddy is playing games.”Harold was in disbelief. “So, Daddy didn’t come, not because he’s busy… He plays snooker and games, but he refuses to accompany us and Mommy. Does Daddy not love us anymore…?”Before he could finish what he wanted to say, tears welled up in his eyes. Melody bit her lower lip and sniffed. She could not help but start to cry too when she saw him crying. George pursed his lips. “Winters Corporation is currently developing an online game. Perhaps he’s testing the game out…”He was trying to find an excuse on his father’s behalf. However, after he walked a little closer, he saw the screen of the game console reflected on the glass. It was a very popular online game on the market, and it
“Stop your crying. Come in and wash your face.”Earl approached Melody and carried her in his arms. Even though Melody scolded him and said that he was naughty, she still wanted her daddy to hug her. She hugged his neck as she continued to cry. Earl carried her and headed into the washroom. He kicked the door closed.The three boys who were left outside looked at each other. Harold’s lips quivered and said in a choked voice, “Why do I feel that Daddy has become more terrifying than before?”“Something is off about him.” George frowned. “Although Daddy has always been strict, he would never look at us that way. It’s as if…”‘...he’s looking at a bunch of clowns.’Alden sneered, “Perhaps these are his true colors.”‘He deceived Mommy, Melody, and I with gentleness and patience. When we finally accepted the Winters family, he revealed his true colors.‘I’m just glad that he’s still willing to coax Melody… ‘Otherwise, her autism would act up again…’ At that moment, they he
Earl was stunned for a second. Then, he managed a smile. “Be a good girl and go home. I will come home tonight.” “Yay!” Melody stopped crying and smiled. “I will be a good girl and wait for you to come home, Daddy.” “Miss Clark, take the kids home.” Earl rubbed his brow and gave the order in an indifferent tone. Miss Clark walked in and said with a gentle smile, “Young Master George, Young Master Harold, Young Master Alden, and Young Lady Melody, let me take you home.” George said flatly, “You can just walk us to the elevator.” Miss Clark spent a few seconds observing him. It was not as if she had not seen George come to the office before. She had always assumed he was Mr. Winters’ nephew, but as it was, he was his son. His eyes and his demeanor showed that he was the spitting image of Mr. Winters. She only learned after watching the news that Mr. Winters and Ms. Daugherty already had four children. However, Mr. Winters seemed to have been occupied with work since he
The question froze Mabel to the spot. It took her quite a moment to regain her composure. She said dryly, “Any man would want to take their career to the next level after they settle down. I think your daddy wants to provide you with a better life, which is why he has been working day and night in the office.” Alden lowered his eyes. The corners of his lips curled in a sneer. Winters Corporation had already been one of the largest conglomerates in Sea City long ago. He wanted to take it to the next level? What level was he going to take it to? That man had obviously changed. He fooled him, Melody, and Mommy with sweet words. The three of them were living happily, but now their happiness was like a bubble, which could be burst by a strong wind at any time. “Mabel, I will have the kitchen prepare a sumptuous dinner.” Mr. Brown smiled and broke the dull atmosphere in the living room. “Young masters and ladies, what would you like to eat?” Melody was in great spirits. She s
The nonchalant voice finally grew a little more serious. “Winters Corporation is pretty much under my control now. Even if my identity is discovered by him, it won’t be a threat to me.” “Earl!” Mabel raised her voice in anger. “Do you know how many people are watching Winters Corporation? Do you know how many people are jealous of Winters Corporation? You are going out of control. Your character is violent and wild. Before long, other than the children, the servants in the Winters family mansion, the employees in Winters Corporation, and the press will eventually find out that the CEO of Winters Corporation is a different person. There will be no more room for maneuvers by then!” “I know you don’t care about the survival of Winters Corporation, but it’s your father’s life’s work!” Mabel cried and pleaded, “Your father died because of you. You can’t spoil your father’s life’s work! Earl, you don’t care about anything in the world. All I am asking is, before you do anything, think
“Earl, I love you so much. Your secret is my secret. I will take the secret to the grave.” Catherine looked up and gazed smittenly at the man who was staring down at her. She coughed and said, “I have hypnotized Duke and erased his memory. He will never come back. Divorce Adina. We will get married and have a child. Isn’t that a good thing?” The impatience in Earl’s eyes grew even more. He should not have asked this woman to perform hypnosis for him just to save himself the trouble. The hypnosis was no longer necessary because Duke was already dead. And he had let this woman have a hold on him. “Duke wanted to kill you. Don’t tell me you still want to protect his woman and children?” Catherine held on to the desk and stood up. “Besides, Adina and the children are the closest people to Duke. Sooner or later, they will find out that you have changed. Then, they will eventually discover that you are not Duke! The risk of this is too great. Only divorce can secure your position
“All men change. It’s the same for a company president. All rich and powerful men are the same.” “Ms. Daugherty is so pitiful. She is being cheated on after she just got married. She is probably still being kept in the dark about it.” “And they had four children together. Mr. Winters’ mistress came to see him right after they left.” Adina drove home after she settled things at the company. Before she drove her car into the Winters family’s mansion, she saw a familiar black car in the courtyard. She parked the car and raised her eyes to look inside the mansion. She saw a familiar figure sitting on the sofa in the living room. Mabel was talking to him. Melody was leaning against him, squinting slightly. It looked like she had fallen asleep. George and Alden were sitting and reading on the opposite couch. Harold was assembling a Transformer robot toy. The atmosphere in the living room was serene and pleasant. Adina stood at the entrance. She was somewhat afraid to enter.
Adina’s red lips pursed. She raised her hand and pulled a tissue from the cabinet on the porch. She walked over and said flatly, “Bend over a little.” Earl did not know what she was going to do and wondered if this woman was going to wipe his sweat for him. He coldly curled his lips and bent slightly. Adina raised her hand and wiped the lipstick mark off his collar. Her voice was indifferent and calm. “In the future, before you enter the house, it’s better to check yourself from head to toe to see if there is anything inappropriate.” Earl glanced over and saw a smear of lipstick on the tissue. There was still a residual lipstick mark on the collar of his white shirt. His gaze suddenly turned cold. “If you guys want to make out, go to your room. It’s inappropriate for the children to see!” When Mabel came out of the bathroom with the children, she saw the man bending slightly and the woman on her tiptoes, her arm wrapped around the man’s neck. From her perspective,
The screen was full of comments like, “I can’t accept this sadness.”When the host saw the audience overreacting, he smiled to smooth out the situation and said, “Have you forgotten? Ninian just said that she wanted to announce some good news!”His words reminded everyone at the venue.With that, almost everyone held their breath and listened to her.“Everett and I will be holding a wedding soon!”“What?!”“Ah! Awesome! The day has finally come!”“Sob! Ninian and Everett finally have a happy ending! I’m going to cry! They’re my youth! I’ve witnessed love that has gone the distance!”“You have my blessings! You have to be happy for the rest of your lives!”Their cheers grew louder and louder, almost overturning the whole award hall.Everett was standing backstage. When Ninian saw the scene, she turned back, looked into his eyes, and smiled.They were finally getting married.The eighth of September was a good day for their wedding.The headlines in the entertainment section
The Winters family fell silent again.Among the three sisters-in-law, Lana was already so moved that she wept. Raina and Nerola were stronger, but their eyes turned red too.The Winters brothers, who were initially touched, instantly appeared dissatisfied as a result.They were actually moved and crying for other men? Women, you were playing with fire!Naturally, the Winters brothers did not have a chance to vent their anger because Duke had already stood up.He walked to the similarly outstanding young men, who were standing side by side, and patted their shoulders. At this moment, he seemed to age a little. He did not look like the overlord who dominated the business industry in the past.“From now on, I’ll leave my two babies to you.”When Brooklyn and Everett heard this, they were taken aback, but their eyes were soon filled with excitement.Before they could respond, Duke had already walked far away. Meanwhile, Adina got up abruptly to accompany him.She turned back and l
“Uncle Duke,” Brooklyn and Everett greeted Duke at the same time.Brooklyn was older, so he moved a step forward first and said, “Uncle Duke, this is something that I prepared three years ago. All properties under my name, including shares that aren’t limited to the family business, properties, estates, stocks, etc… were transferred to Mel three years ago. Whether in the past or in the future, everything I have, including my life, will belong to her.”Melody was shocked when he said that.All his properties had been transferred to her? He never mentioned anything to her. He just silently gave her everything.“Daddy…” Melody looked at Duke, and her clear gaze was filled with helplessness which was rare.Brooklyn was the only person, other than her family, who was willing to sacrifice everything for her.Such love that was enthusiastic, reserved, hidden, yet deep and long-lasting made her heart seize.George took the documents from Brooklyn and passed them to Duke.Duke flipped t
At the same time, Alden replied to her.“Daddy and Mommy are just in the next city. The journey will take two hours.”Melody was speechless. She was right!There was murderous intent on the indifferent and delicate girl’s face.Good! Great! She wanted to see where her father could hide this time!When Ninian came out after putting her makeup on, it was still early. There were still two hours before the ceremony’s banquet.There was still half an hour left before her father came home. At this time, Melody secretly called Everett and Brooklyn to come over. They were fully prepared, and they just waited for Duke to return home.At the side, George, Raina, Harold, Lana, Alden, and Nerola were watching the show.After the Winters sisters worked hard, the three of their sisters-in-law were successfully bribed to support them to get married as soon as possible.Even the three of their henpecked brothers also took their sides.Now, the Winters siblings had everything ready. They we
Her words were audible in the live stream, and they instantly caused a big fuss.[Ninian has a kid!][Is “the Everett” a dad now?][Sob! I knew that they secretly got married!][How could they not live broadcast my husband and wife’s wedding?]The comments on the screen kept moving, while Ninian was clueless on the other side.She just said, “It’s our baby. Please make the necessary arrangements, thank you.”The comments became more frenzied.[?][!]A series of symbols occupied the whole screen. After Ninian hung up, they were still rolling.The netizens were worked up.By the time the venue’s staff realized this, it had become the top trending topic.[#The Everett and Ninian secretly got married!][#Baby Ninian has a kid!][#The Everett is a father now!]Crazy, screaming fans filled the bottom of the screams.The couple had been together for so long, and the fans had gotten used to them from not accepting them at the beginning.After all, Ninian grew up quickly befo
There was also “as long as a woman had a stable job and strong support from her family, she would be happy and relaxed even if she stayed single for her whole life.”She could go on.Besides, what was more cunning about Duke was that he would never post the quotes using his own account. He would use his wife’s, Adina’s WhatsApp, to post inspirational quotes and links every time.In the beginning, it caused the Winters siblings to panic for a time, and they thought that their mother opposed their marriage.They sighed in relief only after Alden unintentionally hacked his father’s account. He realized that his father had found the posts and forwarded them to his mother before posting them using his mother’s phone.It was fine. It was normal for the father-in-law to trouble his sons-in-law.It was the same theory as the mother-in-law having conflicts with her daughters-in-law.However, the roles changed in their family. It was the father who was being antagonistic toward the daught
Reverie’s smile was sincere and genuine.She initially helped Ninian only because she thought that Ninian was great. Besides, Ninian said she wanted to rely on herself before the casting, which also impressed and moved her.Unexpectedly, she gave herself an opportunity with her unintentional act. That made Reverie feel blessed and surprised.Hearing what she said, Ninian felt warm and comforted.Everyone thought that the entertainment industry was filthy and full of schemes.In reality, there were many people who pursued their dreams and worked very hard there. There were also many people who helped and supported each other.When there were people, there would be competition, but there would also be warmth and sincerity.Ninian filmed her scenes in an orderly manner.As for the Winters siblings, their relationships also developed smoothly.George had happily begun preparing for his wedding. Raina was not a pretentious person either, and the couple had discussions about how the
However, to the surprise of those haters, Ninian, who was acting for the first time, not only did not drop the ball on any of her performances in the Oscar-level mission, but she also managed to portray her own charm and personality in the character very well.From her gentleness and firmness at the start to the grandeur during the protest to her enthusiasm and passion even when captured by the enemy and taken to the execution ground, her character arc represented the experiences of countless revolutionary predecessors.She had absorbed the spirits of many ancestors into her body. Seeing her alone demonstrated the bravery and unstoppable power of Cairnstan’s youth.Before she was executed, she looked at the rising sun and showed a gentle and firm smile.In the end, gunshots rang out, and her body dropped to the ground. However, the sun rose all the way and illuminated the earth.Numerous people were moved and went wild at the scene where she smiled. It was not until everyone’s e
“What? What turn of events?” Nilson immediately asked. “We have defenders!”“Defenders? What defenders? Are you talking about soccer now?” With wide eyes, Nilson asked.“No, not those types of defenders! What I mean is that someone stepped in and is explaining on Ms. Winters’ behalf! But it’s not one of our people. It’s defenders from outside!” explained the staff. “What?” Nilson immediately stood up. “Let me see!”The staff quickly handed the phone over to him, and the website page on the screen kept on refreshing. [@ActressReverieWood: “I’ve worked with the Winters family’s little princess before. She has a lovely personality. She’s soft-spoken and well-behaved, and she has no temper at all. What surprised me the most was her acting skills. She was a rookie who was full of presence, and she could easily blend into the concept. Most actors, including myself, admire someone as talented as her.]A few short clips were attached under the tweet, all of which were from the show,
