Gerald smiled, and his gaze darkened. He hid away the coldness in his eyes, which turned his smile warm.

“I’m not lying to you. I really don’t care about the Bracken family. I’m happy as long as a certain someone favors me.”

North was taken aback for a second. “...Who?”

Gerald’s tone was light as he said, “Mrs. Howard, are you willing to always favor me?”

North’s heart was racing wildly.

Gerald’s chiseled features were seared in North’s vision. She opened her mouth and said, “I…”

A loud noise interrupted North’s words.

Hiding in a corner, Nathan was utterly stunned. He felt like he had been struck by lightning.

Was… Was this Gerald? What was he saying? Nathan must have heard it all wrong!

Nathan looked awkward. Just as he was thinking of sneaking away, he knocked his head against the wall. With a crash, he fell to the ground.

He fidgeted a bit. All he wanted to do was to escape as far away as possible.

North instinctively turned around. Meanwhile, Gerald frowned slightly. “

    This banquet thrown by the South family was not a sincere thing. It was better that North did not attend. However, Connor had heard that Nathan planned to drop in for some fun.…Upstairs, North was in the master bedroom looking for some sheet music. She failed to find it but accidentally nudged a book off the shelf.The book flipped open, and a yellowed note fell from it. It looked like it was quite old but well cared for. The writing on it was very clear.North was stunned. Why was such a note in a book in Gerald’s room?Plus, the handwriting on the note was obviously that of a woman’s.North scanned the words on the paper. [I will think about it. If my answer is yes, I will put a rose in the vase on the tenth-floor window.]There was no context to the note, so North could not wrap her head around it. But the words “yes” and “rose” prompted her to overthink.North pressed her lips together. A feeling she did not understand rose within her. She decided that she would not b

    “Are you sure that I claimed credit for Melinda’s good deed?” North ruffled her hair as she interrupted. “Aren’t you afraid that saying that will haunt you one day, Dad?”Henry’s whole body went rigid. His eyes widened as he turned around in disbelief. “What are you doing here?!”Why did North come here?! She had definitely not been told about this banquet. How dare she just show up? This event was Melinda’s chance to shine, so North could not be allowed to cause trouble here!Henry sounded righteous as he said, “I am your father. Would I tell such lies? North, you must admit it when you do something wrong. You should not feel bad about owning up to it!”North chuckled. “Oh? Then may I ask where Melinda saved Eiger? How badly hurt was Eiger at the time? What did the kidnapper say in the end? How much money did they ask from the South family?“Do you still remember these details, Melinda?”Melinda’s face turned pale. “North…”“What’s the problem with Melinda not being able to rem

    North blinked. “I’m so sorry, Dad. I think you probably won’t want to offend Mr. Nathan, right? I’m going inside now, alright?”Henry was so angry that he panted. He was unable to say a word.North followed Nathan inside, where he haughtily walked up to the front desk and sat down. He was disgusted as he said, “How can you be so useless?”North was stunned for a moment. She pointed at herself. Was Nathan talking to her?Nathan was annoyed with her for not standing up for herself better. “Aren’t you a vixen? Shouldn’t you have better tricks up your sleeve? I can’t believe you got blocked at the door and even got scolded so badly that you couldn’t speak. You’re a disgrace to vixens everywhere!”Goodness, North was simply too weak!North was confused. Did Nathan call her weak? Did he think that she had been scolded so badly that she could not speak?She swallowed. She thought Nathan must have some misconceptions about her.Before she could get to the bottom of it, Nathan suddenly

    Eiger was furious when he heard Nathan call Ronald by his first name. “How dare you?! What makes you think you can call Grandpa by his name?!”“Aren’t names for calling?” Nathan scratched his head. “Could it be that the names of the members of the South family can’t be used? How irrational.”Eiger was outraged. “You—”“Enough, Eiger.” Ronald did not seem upset at all. “Let me introduce you to each other. This is Gerald’s little brother, Mr. Nathan Howard.”North could clearly see Eiger’s breath get stuck in his throat and nearly choke him to death.Ronald seemed to be thinking of something. He put on a smile and said, “Have a seat, North. Since you’re here, you’re a guest. I didn’t send you an invitation because…”“Because Eiger owes me. How could it be proper for the South family to invite me to a banquet for him and his mistress?” North did not hold back at all. She could tell that Ronald could not let her go. And yet, he also could not let Melinda go.That was why he was play

    Nathan made a sound of acquiescence. “Alright, stop clapping. You should just congratulate him quietly.”North was astounded. She felt like Eiger was even angrier.Ronald’s expression was sour. He scoffed. Not bothering to keep up appearances, he led Eiger away. Nathan was not impressed. “How dare he try and argue with me when his skills are so subpar? North, it’s not that I want to criticize you, but how can you be so useless?! How could you let that scumbag bully you? What would you have done without me?!”North was silent for a moment before she suddenly smiled. “Alright. Thanks, Mr. Nathan.”Nathan’s cheeks visibly reddened. He stuttered out, “W-What are you thanking me for?! Although you’re a vixen, you and Gerald got married officially. I-I can’t possibly just watch you get bullied!”North blinked.At the start, Nathan had been helping Sharon in any way he could. Thus, she had assumed that he was another brainless and wasteful scion. She did not expect him to be a kind li

    Melinda continued, “You’re not that person because she has already returned!”Melinda got even more agitated the more she thought about it. “You won’t be able to guess who that woman is. North, you’re done for!”North’s expression did not change. Calmly, she said, “Did you look for me just to tell me that?”“Of course not!” A vicious light flashed across Melinda’s eyes. “North, Mr. South loved you the most in the past and did not care for me. But he’s given up on you. What makes you think you can compete against me?!”North was surprised. “Compete against you? In what? For Eiger?”Melinda sounded matter-of-fact. “Once Mr. Gerald abandons you, you’ll definitely come back and try to steal Eiger from me. I suggest you give up! And the inheritance is mine! Don’t you even think about it!”North eyed her and said, “Shouldn’t you get your mom to have you checked? Being intellectually disabled is a condition that should be treated.”Though Melinda was practically useless, she was quite

    North nearly laughed at the way Henry looked. Had Henry taken acting classes to get to this skill level?Nathan stilled for a moment before reacting. It seemed that Henry was putting on a show for him.He graciously played along and feigned confusion. “Oh?”Henry sighed affectedly. “Mr. Nathan, you don’t know this, but North lost her mother when she was young. Linda brought her up as her own daughter. However, North never appreciated Linda’s efforts and always made trouble for her.”Henry looked helpless. “North, what will make you treat others nicely?”Nathan was stunned and infuriated. This scumbag of a father was putting on a show with his mistress and illegitimate daughter before his first wife’s daughter. Moreover, he even wanted North to “treat them nicely”?He clenched his fists. Just as he was about to speak, North let out a laugh. She tilted her head. She looked innocent as she said, “What are you talking about, Dad?”What was difficult about putting on a pitiful ac

    Everyone gulped at that. Although Nathan was not being very polite, he was right. There was no need for someone of his stature to go against Linda.Linda’s expression turned rigid. She bit her lip angrily. “Henry, maybe Mr. Nathan doesn’t know that I saw North in private.”Henry felt a wave of awkwardness. He seemed offended at being challenged considering he was the person who called the shots in a wealthy family.“Mr. Nathan, you don’t have to help this wretch get out of it! North, you have to make it up to Linda today or I will disown you!”“When have you ever thought of me as your daughter, anyway?” North sounded dejected. “All these years, you believe anything Mrs. Myers says. You never believe me at all. If she says I’m incompetent, you believe her. If she says I’m disobedient, you chase me out of the house.”A tired look flitted across her face, which made everyone lament the situation.“Today, you’re saying that I hurt Mrs. Myer’s hand but can’t provide any proof.

    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?”
