Everyone gulped. They were rendered speechless.

Lucas and Reina both turned furious. This was not what they had meant! How did North manage to turn the situation around and show off?

North feigned resignation. “Actually, I didn’t want things to be this way, either. I wanted to meet Gerald’s friends, but he was too afraid that someone would steal me away. That’s why he refused to let me meet you.”

Gerald was speechless.

North kept going. “I didn’t expect to bump into you at this bar. Well, it’s good then that you can get to know me now. This way, there won’t be any more ridiculous rumors. People are talking about Gerald marrying the woman who saved his life to repay his debt and all that. Won’t that ruin my relationship with Gerald? Don’t you think so, Gerald?”

Amusement flashed in Gerald’s light-colored eyes. “Yes.”

After North finished speaking, she seemed to come back to herself. “Oh, I didn’t realize I blathered on so much. Excuse me. I just wanted to share our relationship wi

    Gerald faltered for a bit before smiling. “Wait here.”After he said that, he left the car and went back into the bar. Two minutes later, he came out with a bottle of sparkling water. “Do you want a drink, Mrs. Howard?”North did not understand what Gerald meant by this. “I’m not thirsty.”Besides, North did not like sparkling water. What was Gerald up to?Gerald fiddled with the bottle in his hand and said casually, “I heard that sparkling water could neutralize acidity. You looked so sour and jealous; I figured that the sparkling water could help.”North was speechless.Her face heated, and she felt angry at the way he was embarrassing her. She slammed the door closed.She did not look sour or jealous! Gerald could drink it all if he wanted to!Back at Royal Sights Residences, North ran upstairs immediately without giving Gerald a chance to speak. After a while, she returned downstairs with a bottle of red wine and two wine glasses.Gerald lifted an eyebrow.North’s movemen

    What did he mean, “I’ve already found her”? North felt like her mind went blank.Gerald said that the most important woman in his life was already in his arms.Noticing that she had stiffened in surprise, Gerald asked pointedly, “Have you guessed who she is, Mrs. Howard?”North froze. At that moment, all her frustrations melted away.She still sat there and did not know what to say. “Gerald…”“Mhm.” Gerald handed her a glass of red wine. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you I was going to the bar. I won’t do it again.”North took the glass and downed its contents without thinking twice.Seeing how lost and helpless her eyes looked, Gerald reassured her, “It’s late. Sleep now.”…Connor was standing nearby as he jabbed Steward’s arm. “Don’t you think Mr. Gerald’s getting more shameless?”Getting busted meeting his first love at the bar, and he still somehow managed to make North not feel upset about it? How shameless!Steward shot Connor a pointed glance.“How did Mr. Gerald even

    “Don’t say that, Ms. Reina. Why would you be an outsider? The real Myers heiress is far inferior to you,” someone said to flatter her.Everyone knew Reina was just Henry’s stepdaughter, but it did not matter. Everyone saw how much she had achieved.Reina quickly shook her head. “I’d never thought about inheriting Myers Corporation. North is the true heiress. Please stop talking about this, everyone.” North narrowed her eyes.“Ms. Reina, how could you be okay with letting that uneducated country girl walk all over you? She’s not even—” Before the woman could finish her sentence, she suddenly noticed someone behind them. “North?!”Everyone turned around in response. North was indeed standing by the door. Reina bit her lip before stepping forward to welcome her. “North! What are you doing here?”North scanned the crowd, barely smiling. “You all seem surprised. Can’t I come to my own company?”Reina looked like she was enduring a huge insult. “That’s not what I meant…”“You have s

    When Mr. Shelby took the blueprint, the greed in his eyes became even more obvious. “We should have a prototype ready to go soon. Shall I drive you back, Ms. North?”North could not pinpoint what was strange about this.However, the jewelry department had backed her mother for almost twenty years with unwavering support. Mr. Shelby had been a big help to her many times, too…so in the end, she shook her head. “There’s no need.”As she walked out the door, Mr. Shelby’s kind expression disappeared to make way for a cunning look. He walked into the corner, then told someone standing there, “We’ve got the blueprint. Now…”…As soon as North got back to the Royal Sights Residences, Roque called her. “North, rumor has it you’re going to compete against Reina using your jewelry designs, and the winner gets to inherit Myers Corporation. Is that true?”North raised an eyebrow. “Where did you hear that from?”“Everyone.” Roque shrugged, suddenly smiling mischievously. “I think neither My

    “Uncle Henry, at this point, we should have Myers Corporation release a statement on Twitter and say that North has only made a mistake. That way, I can placate my fans. Otherwise, if things continue snowballing…”Reina paused in a meaningful manner, and Henry immediately understood what she meant. If things were blown out of proportion, North was not the only one who would end up getting embarrassed. All of Myers Corporation would be, too!How could that brat plagiarize designs?!Estella’s designs had wowed the world, and her talents amazed the people, but her daughter ended up plagiarizing other designers?Henry really wished that he never had North as a daughter. Reina smirked as she thought. “North, I’m going to make you a plagiarizer and make sure that you can never make a comeback.”…At the same time, at Deep Pool Corporation, Connor charged into Gerald’s office. “Bad news, Mr. Gerald! Rumors of the madam plagiarizing Reina Myers’s works have spread online, and Reina M

    [Peacevale University, please respond. Expel the plagiarizer and give justice to Reina!]…The storm on Twitter just made North sneer. So, this was Reina’s strategy?North had clearly been the one who personally designed the brooch one week ago, and it had somehow ended up as Reina’s design. Ring!At that moment, her phone suddenly rang. It was from Mr. Shelby. “Hello, Ms. North. Everyone knows that you plagiarized someone else’s work now. Why don’t you come to the company to defend yourself?”North had actually wondered about Mr. Shelby’s strange behavior before, but at that moment, she suddenly came to the realization that her subordinates had long since betrayed her. Thus, North pressed down on the record button. “Mr. Shelby, I remember that I handed the designs to you.”A cunning look flashed in Mr. Shelby’s eyes. “That you did. But that doesn’t matter. I didn’t know that you plagiarized Reina Myers’s work. Seriously, Ms. North, my heart hurts. I never expected you to

    At that moment, it was as if all the sounds in the world faded away. All North could hear was Gerald comforting her. “I’m sorry this happened to you.”She felt as if something had tugged at her heartstrings, and her heart felt full enough to burst. Even when Reina threw mud at her and when Mr. Shelby betrayed her, North did not feel sad. But when Gerald held her in his arms, she suddenly felt a surge of an unidentifiable emotion in her heart. It confused her. Why did this happen? She went through a period of time where no one loved her or comforted her. Why was she becoming increasingly delicate? It was as if she had regressed. “I don’t feel upset. Don’t worry.”Gerald put his forehead against hers. “You’re free to feel upset when you’re with me.“You didn’t plagiarize her, but you were accused of it. You were also betrayed by someone you trusted. Those are both upsetting things, so you’re free to feel sad about them.”Any other woman would feel distressed if such thing

    North was shocked. Marlin was coming back?Marlin Brandy was a legend in the entertainment industry. He was a three-time award-winning actor, but he was not just an actor. He was someone who was in control of half of the resources in the entertainment industry. North thought about it. “No. I can handle this. This is just a small matter. He—”Ring!Her phone rang and interrupted her before she could finish her sentence. North checked the caller ID and narrowed her eyes. It was from Henry. “North, I’ve heard about the plagiarism. Do you have any idea just how much trouble you’ve caused Myers Corporation?”Ivan frowned and wanted to hang up.But North stopped him and cocked an eyebrow. “Oh? What sort of trouble?”Henry was about to explode. “Three of our business partners have canceled their partnerships with us because they think that our company is filled with immoral people. You made us lose more than thirty million dollars! That’s the sort of trouble you’ve caused!”Nor

    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?”
