Marrying the Richest Man After My Break Up Chapter 145
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 had even tracked down her house in Euston Creek… but Mr. Jameson had not been able to track the guy down, either. What was that man planning?The phone’s screen flashed again. [Don’t worry. Right now, no one’s managed to connect Starlight the hacker from five years ago to North Myers.]North tsked. That was good news.[I’ve increased pressure on the Myers, as you instructed. However, the direction those rumors went was different from what I thought… never mind, see for yourself.]North scrolled down in curiosity, only to find a video that was clearly taken during a certain banquet.In the video, North could hear people gossiping. “I heard that the Riverside Garden project the Myers were working on is ruined. They just lost three hundred million bucks for nothing!”“How can this be, when Alexander Reed was involved with that project? Besides, weren’t there rumors that Mr. Howard was going to get involved too?”“What other reason can there be? Obviously, Melinda Myers offende

Fiona was both angry and anxious. Was that old man blind? How could he play favorites like this?!What was so good about North, anyway? That scar on her neck was ugly, and she was neither gentle nor understanding as a wife. She was better off dead!Melinda was the real blessing to their family. Why couldn’t he understand that?Eiger seemed to realize this was a serious matter, so he quickly replied, “Don’t worry, Grandpa. I’ll get Melinda to clear things up and apologize to North so that she won’t have to suffer any embarrassment!”Mr. South stared at him for quite some time before sighing. “Remember, you need to earn North’s forgiveness. Our family owes her too much.”Eiger did not understand. What exactly did his family owe her?Sure, she saved his life when they were kids. But what else?Mr. South did not seem keen on explaining further. “Your uncle is coming back, and I will let him take charge of the family. He’s not that close to you, Eiger. So, even I won’t be able to sav

North took a look at the pass. What a coincidence! She needed to investigate this exact luxury items store.Half an hour later, North arrived at Linden Square, and, after explaining what had happened to the manager, she began working on her classmate’s behalf.Using her identity as Starlight the hacker, she discovered that her mother and Mr. South used to be good friends who had invested in the same store. In fact, that store was later replaced by the one she was working in right now.North had a feeling that her mom had a special bond with the Souths. They were not really friends. If anything, they were wary of each other. And yet, her mother had written that will.If this store was tied to the Souths… then there were definitely clues she could find here.…Meanwhile, inside Deep Pool Corporation’s office, Gerald stared at numbers on his computer with disinterest. Then, he smiled. “Linden Square?”Connor nodded. “Yes, Mr. Howard. Five years ago, the hacker was apparently inve

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?”
