Melinda seemed like she wanted everyone around them to hear, so her face turned red as she repeated, “Mr. Howard’s interested in working with our family, so he invited me. I was wondering if you wanted to tag along and broaden your horizons.”

Everyone around them stared, wondering if they’d heard her right.

Royal Sights Residences? Mr. Howard?!

The leader of Deep Pool Corporation was inviting Melinda Myers to his house?!

Wow, that was such an honor!

“Melinda Myers was invited to Royal Sights Residences? What project is she working on that caught that man’s eye?”

“I think it wasn’t a project that caught his eye, but a person. Why else would North not be invited even though she’s a Myers too?”

“Hahaha! North isn’t saying anything! I bet she’s jealous of Melinda.”

Melinda’s ego got a big boost from this. Yes, that was the way things should be. She wanted everyone to know that she was better than North.

She wanted North to be ashamed of herself and acknowledge how different they

    Beep beep!North’s phone rang, snapping her out of her trance.On the other end, Connor asked respectfully, “Your car is here, Madam. Are you returning to Royal Sights Residences now?”North thought for a while. “Would I get there ahead of Melinda if I went home now?”Connor hesitated. “Yes.”“Good.” North found Connor’s car and hopped in with some relief. “How much money did Myers Corporation invest in the Riverside Garden project?”“Three hundred million,” Connor answered.Three hundred million, huh? That must have been the last of Myers Corporation’s cash reserves.North began thinking.Henry Myers must be meeting with Gerald for investment purposes.She wanted the Myers to lose it all, so she needed a plan.…Meanwhile, the moment Melinda got into her car, a professional makeup team started dolling her up.When Fiona and Eiger saw her, they were happy and relieved. “You really are our lucky star, Melinda.”Melinda’s meeting with Mr. Howard for business negotiations wa

    At the same time, Melinda was following a servant into the mansion. As the butler, Steward stepped forward to greet them. “Welcome to Royal Sights Residences, Mr. Myers. Connor has some things to confirm with you, so please go meet him.”Henry was thrilled and left after a quick word with Melinda.Then, Steward looked at Melinda. When he remembered what North had instructed him to do, something flashed in his eyes, and he deliberately said, “Miss North, please come with me. Mr. Howard will be here shortly.”Melinda’s smile froze. “Mr. Steward, I’m Melinda Myers…”Steward paused. “Huh? Melinda Myers? But Mr. Alexander said North Myers was in charge of this project.”Melinda bit her lip in anger, and she teared up before lying shamelessly, “She is in charge, but she suddenly backed out a few days ago. I’m just taking over temporarily. Do let me know if I’m doing anything wrong, Mr. Steward.”Steward pretended to look insulted. “Backed out? That’s so irresponsible of her!”Melind

    Melinda gritted her teeth in anger. What right did North have to be here at Royal Sights Residences?She must have snuck in here after finding out that Mr. Howard had invited her!Melinda faked a concerned look. “What are you doing here, North? Do you have any idea where you are?”North blinked innocently. “If you can be here, why can’t I?”“That’s not what I meant, North.” Melinda teared up and shook her head in resignation. “Mr. Howard didn’t invite you, and you used my invitation to get in here. Surely, he’ll kick you out once he discovers the truth. How can you be so foolish?”North replied pointedly, “Who said I used your invitation?” Melinda sighed. “I know you’re not happy about it, but it’s the truth. Mr. Howard only invited me, not you. “North, you may be the eldest daughter of our family, but you grew up in the countryside. Don’t you know that in upper-class society, showing up uninvited is a huge no-no? This is especially true for someone as influential as Mr. Howar

    Malice flashed across Henry’s face.Without hesitating, he blamed everything on North. “I’m really sorry, Mr. Howard. My daughter showed up uninvited and bullied her sister. I was just about to scold her for that! Goodness, she’s being so difficult!”The corner of Gerald’s lips lifted. “Really?”Melinda looked at him with admiration and excitement, blushing furiously.She had never seen a man like this before. He was powerful, cold, and had an intimidating attitude.She could only imagine how much bliss and glory she’d get if a man like this loved her with all his heart.That man should be hers!Melinda could not wait to show how kind she was. “Mr. Howard, my sister only wanted to broaden her horizons. Please don’t take this personally.”Gerald gave Melinda a sideways glance.Melinda could feel his gaze on her, so her heart started beating faster, and she blushed. Subtly, she began defending North. “I know there are a lot of women like her who try to get into this place all th

    “Why, you…” Henry was about to burst a blood vessel, but he took a deep breath and said, “Let’s get to the point, Mr. Howard. About the Riverside Garden project…”“I’ve seen Miss North’s proposal. It’s not bad,” Gerald said simply.Henry was so excited that his fear had completely disappeared. “S-So, does that mean…”“I can invest in that,” Gerald replied nonchalantly. “One of you will need to stay behind and discuss the matter with me.”Henry was so happy that he almost passed out. “You hear that, Melinda? Get over here!”Melinda finally felt proud of herself and sashayed forward, but she stopped in her tracks.“Mr. Myers, either you discuss this with me, or North does. Why are you asking Melinda?” Gerald interrupted him with a frown.There was dead silence in the living room.Henry was confused. “B-But you invited Melinda…”“Since when did I say I wanted to work with her? I just needed someone to pour my tea.” Gerald smiled mockingly. “Why would you neglect North and insist

    The living room fell silent again.Henry gulped as the servants looked their way.If Miss North was the one who got engaged to Eiger South…Mr. Myers was truly a shameless man to say all those things!Henry’s knees almost buckled as he stuttered, “Who told you that, Mr. Howard? Eiger’s fiance has always been Melinda.”“Is that so? Looks like my sources are wrong, then.” Gerald did not ask any further questions.Henry had just breathed a sigh of relief when Gerald calmly turned to a screen door nearby. “Colt, were you wrong, or is Mr. Myers hiding something from me?”Henry paused. When he turned around, he stiffened.There were a bunch of people sitting behind the screen door.Colt and Charlotte Quinn, Alexander Reed, Mr. William… all of them were Gerald’s friends. Who knew how long they had been listening to them?Melinda turned pale. She had a bad feeling about this…Even if the others had no clue, the Quinn siblings and Alexander definitely did!Sure enough, Colt scoffed.

    “This isn’t over, North!” Melinda growled. “I still have Eiger… We’ll see who wins in the end!”“Yes, we’ll see.” North smiled. “But you’re the one who needs to leave now, so sorry. You’ll have to find your own way out!”Melinda stumbled out the door as they kicked her out. She turned around in indignation, her gaze landing on Gerald’s wrist.It was adorned by a watch that belonged to a couple’s set.Melinda felt so afraid at that moment, she almost could not breathe.That watch looked just like the one from the couple’s watch set North had bought!No! What could a country b*tch like North even amount to? Why would she be wearing matching watches with Gerald Howard?She must be mistaken!…By the time North returned to the living room, everyone had already left.She was confused for a moment. Where did Charlotte and the others go? Didn’t Gerald invite them over?As if on cue, she received a text on her phone.It was from Charlotte, and it read, [Tsk tsk tsk, Gerald called o

    Half an hour ago, North was standing in the kitchen while diligently looking up recipes.Why did every dish seem so easy to make in the online recipes, but were so hard to make in real life?After twenty minutes of hard work, she had finally shredded the meat and washed the vegetables. She was about to start cooking when she heard a loud bang.Oil was splashing out of the pot, which made her feel so lost that the only thing she could do was seek help.Gerald frowned and strode to her side, pulling her over with one hand and turning the stove off with the other.North sensed that she was in trouble, so she lowered her head in shame and said, “I…”This was the first time Gerald had seen her like this.Dumb, clueless, and a little lost…It was so different from her usual cheeky attitude.So, there were some things Mrs. Howard could not do, and this was the face she would make if she was in trouble.Gerald smiled and said slowly, “Go, Mrs. Howard. I’ll do it.”After North got sh

    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?”
