The villa had been left by North’s mother and cared for by the butler, Mr. Jameson. That was why North had kept her mother’s things there.

North took the familiar route all the way to a small intersection. Just as she was about to step onto the property, she suddenly heard the sound of Mr. Jameson crying out and begging.

“Mr. Lane, no! These are Ms. Estella’s things!

“Ms. Lane, please don’t do this. Ms. Estella has already passed on, you…”

North’s eyebrows scrunched up as she sped up.

Next came an angry male voice.

“Preposterous! My sister is now Mrs. Myers. What are you trying to imply by calling her Ms. Lane? You look down on us? Marvelous! You’re only a butler in a hick town, but you dare not acknowledge my sister’s position. You’re going to be in trouble!”

Before the man could slap Mr. Jameson, the door to the courtyard was suddenly pushed open.

North strode quickly up to the man. She gripped his wrist and twisted it forcefully.

The man screamed in pain. When he saw who

    Linda added fuel to the fire. “We’re all one big family. Aren’t Estella’s things your things, Henry? But North says we don’t have the right to take them. She even said we’re intruding on private property! She’s simply too much!”Henry was immediately furious. “North, Estella’s assets naturally belong to me after her death. How could you attack someone just because Linda took some things? Get on your knees now!”North glanced at Henry and said, “Mr. Henry, is there something wrong with you? My mother had a will. What does any of this have to do with you?”Henry choked as his rage worsened. “It’s just some old stuff. Why can’t you let it go? Melinda is going to visit the South family, so you have to give your mother’s jewelry to her!”North leaned against the doorframe and quirked up an eyebrow. “Melinda is just an illegitimate daughter. What makes her worthy of that?”Linda cried harder. “North, how could you speak so cruelly? Melinda is your little sister! Her happiness is also yo

    “I didn’t think it was your mother’s photo album. Ah, Henry was right. That thing brings bad luck. It’s better to burn it.”North’s blood seemed to freeze. She suddenly rushed up and clamped her hands around Linda’s neck. She said slowly, “You burned it?”Linda sobbed. “Henry, save me!”Henry was annoyed by all this. “It’s just a bunch of dumb pictures. Let them be burned!”North suddenly felt a little dizzy. Her mother did not have many pictures left. She had not brought them back when she returned to the Myers family because she knew that they would not be safe.Yet, she never imagined that Linda would come to Euston Creek and go to such extents to burn her mother’s photos! North slowly closed her eyes. When she opened them, her gaze was icy.“It seems like I’ve been too generous to you all.”Linda faked an understanding demeanor. “North, why are you distancing yourself from us because of someone who’s deceased? We’re—Ah!”North held Linda’s head in place as she slapped the

    North immediately came back to her senses and nearly started cursing. F*ck, it was not that this man looked like Gerald, he was Gerald!What was he doing here?North could not help but look behind Gerald. Strange, he could not be here to sightsee, right?North swallowed and smiled. “What a coincidence, Mr. Howard.”Gerald smiled meaningfully.He had followed the lead all the way here to Euston Creek and found that the hacker had once stayed in this small villa for a time.Yet, when he got to the villa, the person who opened the door turned out to be North.It seemed that she was really hiding something from him.Grinning, Gerald went along with North. “It’s not a coincidence at all. I came to look for you.”“Um, what?”Instantly, North was flabbergasted.He had run all the way here to look for her?She was just about to ask him why but had not managed to open her mouth when Gerald lazily raised his head. “Did you come here for some reason?”North could distantly feel tha

    Connor could not help but think, “Sir, do you really know what you’re talking about?” Gerald obviously suspected that North was the hacker from back then. Why was he suddenly asking Connor to look for those photographs for North?If she was the hacker, then she was the enemy!Gerald looked at Connor blandly. “You have something to say?”Connor shivered. “No, sir. I’ll get on it right away.”“Also,” Gerald spoke again.Connor immediately ran back.Gerald suddenly chuckled. He said softly, “Whether or not the photos were burned, Mrs. Howard is upset. When she’s upset, I feel like making even more people upset.”The second he heard this, Connor knew that someone was going to get dragged into this. “I understand. I will get someone to go to Peacevale University immediately.”Linda, Horace, and Henry had already gotten into trouble. They had ended up at the police station. By now, probably everyone in the elite circle knew about it. They would be embarrassed to be around them. Now

    Melinda did not expect some of the students to hand their phones over to Alexander immediately. “Look, Mr. Alexander. There are photos and a recording here. Henry said himself that he would kill North if she didn’t give her late mother’s things to Melinda!”“That’s right! Melinda, your parents have already been sent to the police station, but you’re here seducing men. Don’t you have any shame at all?”Melinda was so frustrated that she cried harder. “Mr. Alexander, this can’t be true. Dad and North are father and daughter. He has always doted on her. I know Mom feels she’s wronged North too. How could she…”Yet, before she could finish speaking, Alexander cut her off.“So, there’s so much going on within the Myers family! And here I thought you would behave yourselves because you knew you were in the wrong. I never expected you would all get even worse!”He continued, “I originally came back to the country because of Estella, but you’ve actually tried to steal the things she left

    North did not want to disturb Gerald and was about to go back upstairs. However, she heard him calling her name. “North.”North was stunned for a moment as her gaze landed on a photo album.Her mind buzzed. Her body moved faster than her thoughts, and she rushed forward. “This is… my mother’s photo album?”Hadn’t Linda burned it? Why was it in Gerald’s possession?“Linda didn’t burn it. I had Connor find it from the Myers’ residence.”North frantically flipped through it. In a second, her eyes turned red.These were her mother’s photographs. In them, Estella was gentle and beautiful as she smiled happily at the camera.Right then, North discovered signs of the photos having been restored. So, it seemed that Gerald had been restoring the photos.“Linda nearly destroyed the album. If she had been more skilled, it would not have been in this state.” Gerald lowered his head and said, “I tried many methods, but I could only restore it to this condition.”North blinked. In her hea

    Gerald took a look at North and said, “You don’t have to bother with anyone other than Grandma.”North could see the impatience in his eyes. She clicked her tongue. It seemed that this visit would not be so simple. Of course, how could it be when Gerald’s family was such a prominent one?…The villa was located in the east of the city.After the car came to a stop, North saw a magnificent villa and wondered silently who Gerald’s mother could be.Just then, Gerald raised an eyebrow. “You’re so far away. Are you sure we look like a loving couple?”North regarded the distance between them and felt her face freeze. Yet, she found no words to say.They were nearly stuck to each other. How could this be called far?The next second, Gerald continued, “Give me your hand.”Give him her hand? Did he want to hold hands?North gulped and retreated in slight fear. “There’s no need. I’ll make everyone think that we’re very much in love. Holding hands is not…”Ignoring her, Gerald grabbed

    Why did both women who liked Gerald call him Gerry? Did they really think that would work?The middle-aged woman chastised Cynthia. “What are you so shy about? Gerald is your family!”Next, she said to Gerald, “Cynthia blushes easily. She’s still young and naive. Once she returns with you, you have to take good care of her. Otherwise, some people would surely plan to pick on her!”Cynthia took a careful glance at North. Then, she bit her lip and hid behind the middle-aged woman.North nearly laughed at this.She had not even said a word after coming inside. Yet, these people had mocked her both openly and subtly many times over. Did they think she was a doormat to be walked over?North folded her arms before herself. “Gerald hasn’t agreed yet. Why are you in such a rush to send Ms. Bracken off to be his ‘assistant’?”Cynthia’s face went white in an instant. Her eyes turned red, and she looked as though she had just been terribly offended.The middle-aged man was pained by this

    He moved his wrists and frowned.Did North sleep for the entire day? Was she disoriented?North sat by the bed with nothing to do. She watched as time passed. Strange, why wasn’t she awake yet? Was she that sleepy? Could it be that the advanced exam questions were too difficult and she did not want to wake up?North could not help but think about the questions. Hmm… they did not seem very difficult. She had thought of a solution!Indeed, people had endless potential when they were dreaming. They could even come up with answers to such difficult questions!North was afraid that she would forget and wanted to wake up quickly, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not wake up. She closed her eyes and opened them again, but she was still in the room.North frowned and muttered to herself, “What’s going on…?”Gerald looked at her silently.He also wanted to ask what was going on.“North, do you need my help?”North hesitated. Even though it was a dream, she was still a littl

    North exclaimed in surprise.It turned out that Gerald could be sarcastic too!Gerald did not give Patricia any time to react. He was just short of chasing the entire Bracken family out.While the Bracken family was leaving, Gerald heard Mike grumble, “Mom… If you knew this was going to happen, why didn’t you adjust your act earlier!”Patricia was furious. “I did all of this for you. How could you fall for Gerald’s tricks?!”“But Gerald was right. They suspect that I’m not Paige’s son because of you!”…Giselle’s smile became more and more sarcastic. When the Bracken family disappeared, he said, “Accompany me pay respects to Paige. Also, get someone to clean Glass Manor inside and out.”He wanted to get rid of the bad vibes the Bracken family had brought in.…A few days later, when they returned to Royal Sights Residences, the Bracken family actually stopped causing trouble.North was about to graduate, and she had one final exam. She saw the class group chat exchanging adva

    “Why? Do you think that I’ve forgotten how Paige died?”Giselle never expected that this shameless family would have the audacity to make an issue out of Paige’s death.“You make it sound so simple. Even if Patricia dies today, you would never disregard her last wishes. Is everything you do for the good of the Bracken family?“Still, the only person the Bracken family has ever had to sacrifice was Paige!”Virgil snapped, “Nonsense! I’m Paige’s biological father, how could I…”Giselle sneered. “Stop putting on an act. You didn’t look for your daughter when she was missing. You didn’t feel sorry for your daughter when she returned. You kept asking her to tolerate the adopted daughter. When she was sick, you even stopped her treatment so that she would die and let your adopted daughter marry her husband.“Virgil, I’m sick. I’m not dead yet, and I haven’t lost my memory. If this happens again, I’ll destroy the entire Bracken family!”Giselle looked at the bodyguards she had brought

    The surroundings suddenly fell silent.Virgil found it hard to breathe. “Let go! Are you crazy?!”“I’m asking you a question. Where is Paige buried? Tell me!”Virgil’s brain was deprived of oxygen. Without thinking, he roared, “How would I know? Let go, you crazy woman!”Patricia screamed, “Madam Giselle, what are you doing? Let go of him. Do you want Dad to die?”Gerald’s second uncle also shouted, “Madam Giselle, why are you doing this to us? Don’t treat your husband like this!”“You don’t know? You don’t know at all, do you?” Giselle ignored everyone. She looked unremorseful. She scoffed.“You claim to be severely depressed about your daughter’s death,” Giselle retorted. “Despite that, you actually don’t know where your daughter’s grave is!”As soon as she finished speaking, the entire place fell silent.When Virgil realized what he had just said, his face turned pale and he stopped screaming. He trembled as he spoke to Giselle hatefully. “You did this on purpose…”That wa

    Mike said weakly, “North, we paid our respects to my mother before we went out today. We didn’t say anything because we were afraid that Grandpa wouldn’t be able to accept it.”As expected, Virgil clutched his chest and looked like he was about to faint.Patricia cried out, “Gerald, are you satisfied now that your grandfather is trembling in anger? We’ve kept it a secret for so many years. Despite that…”Everyone sighed. So, that was how it was.It was indeed Ms. Paige’s death anniversary today. However, the old man had fallen into a state of depression from the intense guilt. He then mistakenly thought that his daughter had passed away in May.As his family, Patricia and Mike could not bear to make the old man feel more guilty. Thus, they maintained the facade.In fact, they would pay their respects to Paige every year.This made sense. After all, Virgil was old and could not stand such harsh emotions.The people from the Bracken family jumped on this chance to scold Gerald. “

    Everyone was dumbfounded. North was really bold!North blinked. “What’s wrong, Mr. Virgil? Why are you so angry? Did I say something wrong?”“What nonsense! Paige is my daughter! How could I intentionally let her die?!”North widened her eyes. “I didn’t say that you intentionally let her die! It’s just that the Bracken family didn’t like her and looked down on her. The medical staff didn’t care about her either. In the end, they didn’t even treat her and let her die.“I know. It’s not your fault. After all, you were so busy. How could you have the time to take care of a daughter you don’t love?”Virgil clutched his chest. “What nonsense…! Shut up!”“North!” Patricia screamed. “Gerald, are you just going to watch her anger your grandfather? Your grandfather’s health isn’t good…”“What did I say wrong?”North sighed. “Look at what Mr. Virgil said. Ms. Paige passed away at the end of May, so why didn’t he treat her for two whole months from the end of March to the end of May?“Th

    Mike knew that he had fallen into North’s trap and was speechless!He was so anxious that his expression changed. His forehead was covered in cold sweat, and huge beads of sweat dripped down. “Um… I…”“Mike!” Patricia saw that the situation was not good, so she hurriedly interrupted Mike and pulled him behind her.Then, she took a deep breath and pretended to be helpless and upset.“Gerald, what nonsense are you talking about?! We’re family. If you have anything you’re upset about, just tell me. There’s no need to cause trouble at the banquet and make an issue out of Paige’s death anniversary!“We’re all Paige’s family, and Dad is also Paige’s biological father. How can we not know when her death anniversary is?“Paige’s death anniversary is at the end of May. It’s not today at all. You… You’re too much!”Virgil looked aggrieved. He nodded and said, “That’s right. Paige’s death anniversary is in May. Gerald, I know you don’t want to give up her inheritance. Moreover, I didn’t fo

    Everyone’s eyes fell on Gerald.Gerald looked up slowly and said calmly, “Ms. Patricia, why did you choose today to hold a banquet for Mike?”“It doesn’t matter what day I chose!” Patricia roared.“So, you did choose the date.”Gerald looked down at Patricia from above. His cold gaze made Patricia suddenly feel suffocated.Her “son” had a murderous look in his eyes. “Any other day would have been fine, but not today.”Patricia hated the look in Gerald’s eyes the most. Why was he so arrogant? Why was he looking down on her? Why was he like that b*tch?She screamed, “Gerald, I’m your mother! Mike is your brother! It’s fine if you don’t love me, but you keep finding fault with me. What right do you have—”“Today is the anniversary of Paige’s death.”Gerald interrupted her.Patricia’s face turned pale, and the words that she wanted to say were stuck in her throat. The scene instantly fell silent.What did Gerald say? What day was it today?Today was the anniversary of Paige’s d

    Patricia felt a lump in her throat. “You…”“Connor, come out.” North interrupted her.Then, a group of people dressed in black walked out of nowhere and played mournful music. Connor walked in the middle and placed a memorial tablet on the table.Everyone looked at the memorial tablet curiously, wanting to know whose memorial tablet it was. When everyone saw the name “Paige”, they instantly fell silent.North and Gerald paid their respects. Then, they placed the bouquets beside the memorial tablet.Their actions stunned everyone.Had they come to pay respects to Paige?Patricia was trembling. She stared fixedly at Paige’s name on the memorial tablet. She clenched her fists.Paige!Gerald had paid his respects to Paige at a banquet for Mike. Was he crazy?! She was so unlucky! Paige was already dead, but she was still the center of attention at Mike’s banquet!After paying her respects, North turned around. “What are you waiting for? Aren’t you going to pay your respects?”
