Sunlight shone in from the balcony as Adina tidied her hair and sat up.

She stared into space for three seconds before she got up and went to get ready.

After she sent the kids to preschool, she had to go to Xavier Corporation and attend the press conference for the new product. Then, she had to go to Winters Corporation to discuss the collaboration.

She pulled open her closet and chose a work dress.

As soon as she got changed, she heard some noise from downstairs.

“Who allowed you to stay here? I’m giving you three seconds. Get out, now!”

Ethan was standing in the living room and looking very angry.

He had come over because he wanted to give Addy a ride to the press conference in Xavier Corporation.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the house, he saw a man only in his pants lying on the couch and sleeping soundly.

He instantly became furious.

Meanwhile, Flint was just as angry.

He had slept in the study last night, but there had been too many mosquitoes in the

    “He’s Flint Morton. He’s a friend I met overseas. He came to Sea City yesterday, and he didn’t have a place to stay, so I let him stay the night,” she nonchalantly said with a straight face. When Ethan saw her honest expression, he sighed in relief. “He said that he was the master of this house.” “No, I didn’t say that!” Flint cowered and explained in a weak voice, “Mr. Xavier, you misheard me… What I meant was that it’s inappropriate for a guest like me to be dressed like this. I-I’ll go and get changed…” He ran away dejectedly. “Addy, you’re a single mother. It’s not appropriate to have a man stay overnight in your house. If he doesn’t have a place to stay, you can ask him to stay a night with the Xavier family,” Ethan said sincerely. Adina nodded obediently and said, “Ethan, don’t worry about me. I’ll go to the Xavier Corporation after I send the kids to preschool.” Flint stuck his head out and shouted, “Addy, you can go to work. I’ll send Alden and Mel to their preschoo

    “I’m a daughter of the Xavier family. Who dares to criticize me for being the Marketing Department’s manager?!” Sophia yelled angrily. Adina seemed indifferent as she said, “I have nothing to say, of course. I just feel that it would be better to do some homework before you doubt others. Uncle Richard, the press conference is about to start. Shall we go now?” Richard nodded before he led Adina to the site of the press conference. Sophia kicked the table in fury, but the table was so hard that it hurt her toes tremendously. Xavier Corporation was using a gimmick in this press conference for their new product. They utilized the new concept of an intelligent device as the title, and that attracted a lot of people. Even George, who had recently landed in Sea City and had not recovered from his jet-lag, also decided to attend the press conference this morning. The intelligence market was booming, and Winters Corporation also planned to invest in the industry. George wanted to se

    No wonder she could make his mother so fearful. Perhaps it was due to their biological relationship, but he could not hate this woman.However, once he remembered that the purpose of this woman's return was to mess the Daugherty family up, he could only suppress his good impression of her. His mom had given him life, so he had to protect her. When Adina stood on the stage, she could feel a constant sharp gaze on her. When she looked around, she could only see the crowd. Just as she was about to carefully pinpoint the source, a microphone was pointed at her. “Ms. Daugherty, we would like to know how your relationship with the Daugherty family is. Can you please share with us?” The previous incident had caused such a big fuss, and it was not officially over, so the crowd had been curious for a long time. Adina looked away before she calmly answered, “I’m a daughter of the Daugherty family, and that will never change. The family has transferred 25% of their shares to me, so

    George stood at the end of the corridor and looked indifferent.This woman had brought disaster to the Daugherty family four years ago, and after all that time, she continued to frequently attack the family again. If his mom wanted to teach this woman a lesson, it would be reasonable.It was fine to let his mom vent her anger too.He hoped that this woman would hold back after this incident and not go against his mom constantly.George turned around to leave.Right then, four muscular men walked toward him.“This is a great job. Our employer says that she's the most beautiful woman in Sea City. She's supposed to be a gorgeous woman whom countless rich men have failed to pursue, but she's in our hands now.”George instantly stopped walking.He raised his head and looked at the approaching four men.All of them were at least 1.8 m tall, and every one of them looked fierce. Bad intentions flashed in their eyes.If these men entered the meeting room, it would not matter what they

    The muscular men's leader flashed her a despicable smile and questioned her first.“Who are you? Why are you looking for me?”Adina remained calm as she continued to move backward.The muscular men slowly walked toward her. “Ms. Daugherty, we heard that you’re the most beautiful woman in Sea City. We purposely came to see what makes you the most beautiful woman.”One of the muscular men suddenly raised his arm and grabbed Adina’s wrist.She was prepared. She threw the glass to the floor and used a sharp shard to scratch his wrist.“How dare you, b*tch!” The muscular man was angry, and he quickly rushed over.Adina grabbed his arm and slammed him over her shoulders.The man was so heavy. He should have weighed more than 400 pounds. She only managed to slam the man on the ground after she used almost all of her strength.“This b*tch knows martial arts!”The remaining three muscular men looked at each other and secretly broke into cold smirks. Luckily, they were prepared.As th

    The four muscular men pushed the wheelchair outside.When they just opened the meeting room door, they saw a dozen security guards walking toward them in the corridor.“Who are you?”The head of the security team walked over with a baton.“This is our lady. She hurt her leg, so we came to pick her up,” the leader of the muscular men said calmly.Adina wanted to speak, but her mouth was stuffed, so she could not say a word.She wanted to struggle and cause a disturbance, but she realized that she did not have any strength. She could not even move her fingers.But this was her only chance!She wanted to turn over and roll down from the wheelchair, but the muscular man was pressing her shoulders down.He remained very calm. “If there’s nothing else, we’ll leave.”The security guard head did not notice anything suspicious, so he let them go.Adina’s heart sank to the bottom again.“Hold on.”At that moment, the cold voice of a child was heard.George walked out from behind th

    Over in the Daugherty Family, Dew threw a bunch of things onto the floor in a fit.“You’re all trash!”Her chest heaved with anger, and she wanted to smash everything in the room.Why did she keep failing again and again?Was she not just a woman? Was it so hard to kill a woman?“Stop, Dew. Don’t get angry.” Ruby walked over and patted her back. “There were security guards in Xavier Corporation’s building, so it was hard to do anything. Don’t blame them. We should think about how we can stop the four men from talking so that they won’t expose the Daugherty family.”Dew scoffed. “If they want their family line to end with their generation, they can expose the Daugherty family!”When she hired these men, she had their children controlled, so these men would not dare to say anything.“That b*tch, Adina, is really strong. I have to take some extreme measures. I’m really worried that she’ll find out about the two kids one day. If that happens, I’ll be completely doomed,” she said wi

    George’s judging gaze was fixed on Dew.She felt a shiver run down her spine, and it creeped her out.It was the first time she had found George more terrifying than Duke.She bit her pale bottom lip before she slowly said, “George, is there some kind of misunderstanding? Adina and I are sisters. No matter how much I hate her, I wouldn’t kill her. I—” “Mom, since I’m asking you, it means I already know something.” George walked down the staircase and firmly said, “I just want to hear it from you. Why do you want to kill her?”Dew had never felt that frightened before.Even when Duke spoke indifferently to her, he never stared at her in that manner.Why would a four-year-old kid have such a menacing power?She suppressed her fright before she slowly said, “George, it wasn’t me. I’ve never thought of hurting Adina, but your grandfather can’t tolerate her… “George, do you know that Adina forced your grandfather to give away 25% of the shares? Since then, Adina became Daugherty

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    “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.
