The woman ignored North as she said sweetly, “Gerry, the night is so long. Do you ever get lonely? I don’t think Mrs. Howard can satisfy you. Why don’t we spend some time together instead?”

North’s eyes narrowed.

This was so strange. Who was this woman? Although she said she was a waitress, she did not seem like one. She looked more like the heiress of some rich family.

But whoever she was, her being here meant that she had some relation to Gerald.

And she was even getting so close to Gerald, too!

“Say something, Gerry. You can do whatever you want. I—Hey, Gerald!”

Gerald swiftly shoved the woman aside and sent her sprawling weakly to the floor. Her bosom became exposed. She weakly bit her lower lip. Her every action, and even her gaze, told North that she was seducing Gerald.

North was enraged.

Was this woman blind? Did she not see North sitting right there?

There were rules even when it came to seducing someone’s husband. At the very least, that woman should not be doing

    Listening to Nelly, North felt like there was something amiss.Nelly made herself out to be like one of the boys, who had grown up with Gerald. She had even said that she was worried that no woman would be interested in Gerald… All in all, it made North uncomfortable.However, Nelly acted like this was all very normal.Could this young woman really just be overly bold?After Nelly finished speaking, she looked at Gerald. “Gerald, you have such a great wife. You have to treat her well. Don’t keep dealing with Reina. That woman…” Nelly put on a disdainful look and looked at North.“Mrs. Howard, Gerald isn’t getting too close to Reina, is he? You have to keep an eye out for him. I know what kind of woman Reina is. She’s such a two-faced b*tch. Her greatest skill is seducing men!”North paused and suddenly asked softly, “Do you know Reina, Ms. Nelly?”“Yes, I’ve met her.” Nelly sighed. “It would be best if Gerald doesn’t have any relation with such a woman, but Reina just had to sav

    Nelly smiled bitterly. “Then I’ll have to trouble you. I hope you don’t find me too intrusive, Mrs. Howard.”North feigned a look of being touched. “Why would I ever think that? I’d be happy if you could come.”After saying that, North squeezed Gerald’s hand and said clearly, “Let’s go. I want to look at wedding rings. We’ll have to get Ms. Nelly’s opinion when we find a pair, too!”Gerald let out a half-stifled laugh and turned to head out. Once they left, Nelly was alone in the private room. Her smile had vanished, and she hurled a wine glass viciously to the floor.It shattered with a crash.It took her several deep breaths to calm herself down.No, this would not do. She had to control herself and make sure that she did not expose herself. She had to pretend to be North’s best friend so that she could get close to Gerald.That useless Sharon could not win Gerald’s interest, of course. However, Nelly could.North was just a woman with a little bit of ambition. She was not

    Why was it that only Gerald could have so many women who were interested in him around him? North could have some suitors too!North suddenly thought of someone and came up with an idea.“I have very high expectations when it comes to my wedding ring. A typical jewelry designer won’t satisfy me.”Gerald was listening to her intently. “Alright. Who would you like to design it, Mrs. Howard?”North said conspiratorially, “I wonder if you’ve heard his name. He doesn’t have many designs under his belt, but every one of them is a classic.”Gerald began to get an idea of who North was talking about as he listened to her description. “Who is it?”North lifted an eyebrow. “He’s a renowned staple in the industry. Have you heard of Leon Sullivan?”Gerald hid a smile and said languidly, “Leon Sullivan… I recall that he had already withdrawn from the industry a long time ago. There has been no news about him in a long time. No matter who tries to commission him, he rejects the offer. What ma

    Gerald watched as North did her best to come up with some traits with which to praise Leon. Then, she suddenly leaned down.“Mrs. Howard, do you know who Leon really is?”In the jewelry design industry, nearly everyone had a “designer name” that they used when they released their designs.As such, Leon Sullivan definitely was not the man’s real name, and North did not know his true identity.But was that important?All North wanted to do was to give Gerald a taste of his own medicine. She wanted him to think that she was surrounded by men.“Of course, I know!” North blurted out. “Leon’s true identity is the chairman of some listed company. He was only eighteen when he was made the chairman. Although many people were unhappy with it, he had an iron grip on the company. Even now, he’s very revered in the company!”Gerald smiled ingenuously.If it were not for how North’s gaze wavered, Gerald would really have thought that she had known who Leon was ages ago.Leon Sullivan was a

    These designs were by Leon.But how could they have been done by Leon?! How could Leon’s designs end up in Gerald’s possession?!North’s expression froze. She started stuttering, “Y-Y-You and Leon…” She broke off.“I forgot to mention something, Mrs. Howard. I’ve always been in a partnership with Leon.”He had made himself some designs. That could count as being in a business partnership.North’s jaw nearly dropped to the floor. She became visibly anxious.Hold on!If Gerald knew Leon, then wouldn’t what she said have been the dumbest thing ever?!North felt like this was the most embarrassing moment of her life.Leon had to be a middle-aged man of about forty years old. However, North insisted on calling him handsome and even going so far as to say that he had confessed his love to her. Would she not be done for if Gerald checked with Leon about this?North swallowed in fear. After thinking about it for a beat, she asked hesitantly, “H-Have you met?”“We’ve…” Gerald paused

    Nelly thought that there was no way Gerald really loved North. Thus, she assumed that North would have to go pick them out herself.She was also insinuating that North did not have a good position in upper-class society and only knew people who were not worth mentioning. And thus, she was not worthy of Gerald.It was not true that Nelly was making this phone call to help her. Nelly was trying to subtly insult her while pretending to be nice.North combed through her hair. “Ms. Nelly, you’re worried that I won’t find a designer to design my wedding ring?”Nelly sounded resigned. “That’s right. Socialites all have their own personal designers. You’re Gerald’s wife, North. Wedding rings are a huge deal that you must take seriously. If you just get any old pair, people will laugh.“I was worried that you wouldn’t know about these things and wouldn’t be able to find the right designer. That’s why I wanted to help you.”An idea came to North. “Oh. Which designer do you have in mind, Ms

    Nelly’s smile was a little stiff. “Thanks, North, but there’s no need.”“Alright then.” North nodded. Then, she feigned curiosity and asked, “When will the designer arrive? You made the appointment for 8:00 p.m., but it’s way past that now. Isn’t it a bad thing that he’s not punctual?”Nelly sounded resigned. “This designer is quite famous in the industry. He’s just late, so there’s no need to be petty about it.”She continued casually, “You must have heard of the designer Johnny Carter.”“Sorry, I haven’t.” North propped her chin on her hand. Looking innocent, she asked, “Is he very famous?”“North, you…” Nelly paused for a second before shaking her head. “Don’t you even know Mr. Johnny? He designed the ice diamond that socialites adored last season.”North put on a fake smile.When she was dominating the design world under the name Star, no one had told her that Johnny Carter was such a big deal that she should know about him.She kept getting the feeling that Nelly was tryin

    North almost laughed.Her? Apologize?She calmly sipped at her coffee with a look of confusion. “Are you very famous, Mr. Carter?”Johnny replied pridefully, “Of course I am—”“How many awards have you won? Do you have any mind-blowing works? How many exhibitions have you had? What is the greatest achievement of your career?”Johnny’s face turned a deeper shade of red with every question North asked.Finally, she cocked her head sideways and said, “As far as I know, you don’t have an answer for any of the questions I asked. In that case, it’s obvious you’re not some big shot. What’s wrong with my inability to recognize you, then?”She was right. If a designer had never won any awards or produced neither a noteworthy work nor held an exhibition… Then was it so strange that other people could not recognize him?Household name designers were at least as good as Leon Sullivan or Star. Who was Johnny Carter compared to them?Johnny was so angry he fumed. He could not say a word.N

    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?”
