“I’m sure the Jordan family will gift Reina some good things to help her shine in this party.”

“I heard that Reina will bring a teacup from five hundred years ago to blow everyone’s mind. We surely can’t look down on the Jordan family.”

“Mr. Gerald will be here too. I wonder if the Jordan family will bring up that engagement. If—”

“Shush!” Someone suddenly interrupted them.

Everyone looked around and fearfully found that North and Gerald had walked into the hall at some point.

“They’re wearing matching outfits?!”

“Ah… Who said that Mrs. Howard isn’t loved?”

“But Mr. Gerald and Reina are engaged. North is dominating their marriage. Isn’t that bad?”

Calmly, North scanned the crowd. Almost everyone was talking about that engagement.

“Mr. Gerald!” At that time, someone spoke up behind them.

Gabriel and Reina appeared arm in arm. Gabriel shot North a contemptuous glare and extended his hand toward Gerald.

“It’s nice to meet you. I always hear Reina talking about you.”

    There was a brief silence. Gerald looked aloof. “An engagement?”Gabriel sounded confident. “My mother and Madam Bracken agreed on that engagement back then. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Madam Bracken.”The onlookers were all ears. It had always been a secret who Bryan’s wife and Gabriel’s mother was. But it had to be real since Gabriel had confidently claimed that Giselle and Mrs. Jordan had agreed on that engagement. If not, it would give the game away if others asked about it.“Mr. Gerald is engaged. Doesn’t that make North feel awkward?”“What is Mr. Gerald going to do? I’m sure the Jordan family won’t let it go. Plus, it’s bad to go back on one’s word.”North narrowed her eyes. She thought. “Does Madam Bracken know about this? But I never heard her mention this.” Gerald remained calm without any extra emotion. “If that’s the case, Connor, help me ask if Grandmother is free now.” Enlightened, Connor said, “Okay, Mr. Gerald. I have never heard Madam Bracken brin

    “I was just a stepdaughter of the Myers family. It was very normal for North to look down on me. I’m fine.” Gabriel’s wrath grew. “Hmph! I knew that this woman wasn’t nice! Don’t worry, Reina. I’ll seek justice for all the grievances you’ve ever suffered!” Although Bryan remained silent, displeasure had overwhelmed him. In his twenties, he and Estella were madly in love. But later, she went missing. All he had left of her was their daughter. Bryan had spent twenty years finding Estella’s daughter. Of course, he could not bear to see others bully his daughter.“If Estella is still alive…” Bryan paused. “Reina, let’s go and pay our respects to your mother after the party’s over.”Reina hid the malice in her eyes. “Okay, Dad. I miss Mom very much too.”…Connor rapidly came back after making the call. He looked bad. “Mr. Gerald, I’ve asked Madam Bracken about it.”“What did Grandmother say?” After a brief pause, Connor confessed, “Madam Bracken said… she doesn’t remember

    North thought. “Is this the teacup that Reina brought? But… Why does it look exactly like the one Mom had left me? “Their colors, shapes, and sizes are the same. “But Mom wrote in her diary that there’s only one such teacup in the world. Why does the Jordan family have one too?“Unless… Reina’s teacup is fake!” Silently, North went over.Smugness gripped Reina. She thought. “I’m sure North is jealous. Yeah, she was supposed to enjoy such glory today. But she was dumb. I took away her title as the young lady of the Jordan family.” She gave someone a secret look before that person raised a remark on purpose. “Ms. Reina’s teacup is amazing. What do you think, Ms. North?” Everyone turned to look at North.Someone laughed and said, “You guys are terrible. What’s there to ask about? North is infamous for being ignorant. What kind of opinion can she form about the teacup? I’m sure she doesn’t even know what porcelain is!” “North, what good thing did you bring today? Let’s ad

    Gabriel flared up in a rage. “You claimed that my family heirloom is fake. Hmph! Your personality is terrible!” Reina’s eyes turned watery as she shook her head. “I’d forgive you if you had merely insulted me today, North. But this antique represents the reputation of the Jordan family. You must say sorry. Don’t you think so, Gerald?” Everyone turned around and found that Gerald had walked over.Gerald kept his head low to exchange a look with North. North immediately understood him. She nodded firmly and whispered to him, “I swear that this is fake.” Gerald calmly looked up. “I trust my wife’s judgment.” Connor stepped forward and suggested respectfully, “Why don’t we get someone to appraise it, Mr. Jordan?” Gerald’s request was very reasonable because this kind of issue always happened during an antique conference. If people felt that an exhibit was a fake, they could pay for its appraisal. Hence, no one would object to it. But Bryan laughed. “We don’t need to do that.

    The crowd grew quieter.North was slightly moved. It sounded like a lie, but Gerald chose to believe her.Gabriel flew into a rage. “Fine! Great! Do you insist that my family’s teacup is fake, North?”North raised her brows. “Mmhm.” Consequently, everyone became restless.Naturally, many experts and outstanding people in the field attended the antique conference. An old man got to his feet. He had not stepped forward to say anything because he found that the Jordan family was very overbearing. But a sigh escaped him when North had strayed further from the truth. “Ms. North, you can’t say nonsense. Yes, the Jordan family did humiliate you to support Reina. But frankly, the porcelain teacup of the Jordan family is real. Everyone in the field knows that.” “North, let me introduce him to you. This is Mr. Newcomb, the co-president of the Antiques Association. He’s appraised numerous antiques. He claims that this is real. So, what else can you say?” Gabriel looked at North smugl

    There was a large transparent glass window in the appraisal room, so people could see what was going on from the outside. When they saw Mr. Newcomb putting those two teacups together, they laughed.“Both Mr. McGrath and Mr. Newcomb are here today along with some experts. I’m sure North will have nothing to say when the results are out later.” “North, you’d better start coming up with excuses or say sorry to the Jordan family. You should pray for their forgiveness!” …Mr. Newcomb looked at the almost identical teacups in the appraisal room and narrowed his eyes. He pushed his glasses and subconsciously looked at North’s teacup. He was confused.Mr. McGrath, the president of the Antiques Association, was nearby. He frowned too. He and Mr. Newcomb exchanged a look. Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat. “Do you also feel that…”“Yeah, guys. Come and check it out…” The crowd could see the experts surround one of the teacups as they used various kinds of tools. Meanwhile, the exper

    Everyone was taken aback when Mr. McGrath said that.How could North’s teacup be real?In that case, the Jordan family had the fake.Gabriel was the first to come back to himself. He shouted loudly, “What nonsense!”Bryan’s expression turned grim. “Mr. McGrath, everyone in the Jordan family respects your authority. However, you cannot just say whatever you want. We’ve had this teacup all this time. I recall that you authenticated it ten years ago and called it real at that time. Don’t you remember?”Mr. McGrath exchanged a look with Mr. Newcomb before sighing.“That’s right. Ten years ago, I wasn’t as knowledgeable, and I overlooked a small detail. It’s this detail that determines the authenticity of the teacup.”Gabriel scoffed. “There’s no need for you to look for such excuses. Is there any chance something from the Jordan family’s collection could lose to something of North’s?”Mr. McGrath was the co-president of the Antiques Association. Thus, he spoke with a commanding ton

    “But my mother was sure that the teacup was authentic when she bought it in the past. How could it be a fake?!” Gabriel roared, not happy with how things turned out. His eyes lit up as he took out a certificate of authenticity. “Mr. McGrath, look at this. This is my mother’s certificate of authenticity for the teacup. There is indeed a flaw in the edge of the teacup. That proves that the Jordan family’s teacup is authentic!“North, tell us how an item from the Jordan family’s collection ended up in your hands. Did you steal it?”The gathered crowd was suspicious.That was right. The picture on the certificate showed the authentic item, so how could the Jordan family’s teacup be a counterfeit? Had someone switched them?North’s eyes narrowed. She was curious about this too. If Mrs. Jordan had been the one to buy the teacup and even had a certificate for it, how had it ended up with Estella? And how had the Jordan family ended up with a fake?But North would never believe that her

    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?”
