Bryan seemed to have found himself an excuse. To prove that he was not wrong about Reina, he hastily looked up and said, “You heard her, Mr. Howard! Those rings were your gift to her! If you already gave them to Reina, then why would you give them to North too? Reina’s only doing all this because of you!”

He knew his daughter was not that kind of person! They could give up on the rings, but Reina must not be misunderstood!

The moment Bryan finished, Gerald narrowed his eyes at him.

After a while, he suddenly chuckled. “So, you believe Reina? Alright. Wait and see.”

Inside the store, North said with a half-smile, “These were the rings you didn’t want, you said?”

Reina’s tone was innocent, yet provocative. “Yeah, I preferred pink diamonds, not blue ones. That was why I initially rejected Gerald’s gift. But I like them now, so is it so wrong of me to take them back?”

Linda’s gaze shifted. “I know you think it’s not fair, North, but that’s the truth! Even if the rings did belong t

    Naturally, Bryan could sense what she was implying. That made him both heartbroken and furious on his behalf.“North Myers, I knew Reina used to be your family’s adoptive daughter and you disliked her. I can forgive all that. But she’s the Jordan heiress now! You should think twice before trying to bully her again!”Then he looked at Reina. “You don’t have to be that nice, Reina. Why should you give them away just because North likes them?!”Reina pretended to explain worriedly, but she actually added more fuel to the fire. “It’s not like that, Dad. North simply said that the rings represented a pure, unsullied love and that mistresses did not deserve rings like that. That’s why I—”Nathan was stupefied. He had never seen a woman this shameless at twisting the narrative!Sure enough, Bryan was enraged. “Nonsense! North, you’ll have to live to see tomorrow if you want to take Reina’s rings! I was trying to settle this matter peacefully, but you’ve gone too far!”North raised an ey

    ”You…” Bryan stumbled several steps backward. He was the patriarch of the Jordan family, for goodness’ sake! Since when had he ever been toyed with this much by a younger person? And yet, he could not say anything because Nathan was right.He did not think Reina would lie. This changed everything he knew, and he could not accept it.“It’s my fault, Dad,” Reina suddenly stepped closer to him, shaking her head tearfully. “I was obsessed, and I thought Gerald would marry me… I’m sorry. It’s all my fault for troubling you…”Bryan suddenly came to his senses.How could he blame Reina?He could blame everyone else for this, but not Reina!“Mr. Nathan, it is indeed Reina’s fault she wanted Mrs. Howard’s rings, but she is not the only one to blame. Calling her a mistress is going too far,” Bryan seemed to regain some of his confidence. “Mr. Nathan, I hope you know that anyone else can be a mistress, but not Reina.”Nathan laughed. “Oh, how so? All I know is women who interfere in other

    North’s words seemed as though she was giving the Jordan family a way out of this predicament. She put the blame onto someone insignificant to protect the Jordan family’s reputation. Bryan thought for a while. Then, his gaze toward Linda turned into one of disgust. If this woman was not Reina’s adoptive mother, he would have already gotten rid of her. She was a short-sighted mistress, who only knew how to antagonize the rightful wife’s daughter. She had also badly influenced Reina, offended Gerald, and brought trouble to the Jordan family. Bryan instructed coldly, “Ms. North is right. Reina, if it wasn’t for Linda, you wouldn’t have made such a mistake. I know you’re kind and want to repay Linda for raising you, but you should keep your distance from a person like her.”Reina and Linda’s faces immediately darkened! Linda clenched her teeth in anger and met North’s taunting gaze. She wished she could just kill North! North did it on purpose! A lump formed in Reina’s thr

    Reina’s expression froze. North was still adding fuel to the fire by nodding. “Right, this would make sense. You are Linda’s biological daughter, but you pretended to be the daughter of the Jordan family. Of course, you wouldn’t acknowledge that Mrs. Jordan is your mother. Instead, you keep on defending Linda…” Bryan’s eyes turned suspicious as he looked at Reina. That was true. Reina never referred to Estella as her mother. She even avoided paying tribute to her a few times… “I did not!” Reina yelled. Her expression was extremely darkened. She finally understood North’s motive. North wanted them to cut ties! She would not be able to refer to Linda as her mother again, nor would she be able to continue being Linda’s daughter. North wanted her to choose between Linda and the Jordan family! She had planned for so many years to be the daughter of the Jordan family. How could she possibly let it all go just because of what North had said? She could only… Reina slowly

    Nathan was speechless. When Nathan heard Gerald’s low chuckle, he felt a shiver run down his spine. He immediately reacted, “No, that’s not the case!” The manager thought that Nathan was just shy, so he acted knowingly. “Is your marriage still a secret? Don’t worry, I’ll make sure the news doesn’t leak. I won’t cause any trouble to you and your wife!” Nathan looked pained. What was going on? Was the manager trying to get him killed? If the manager continued this nonsense, Nathan might not be able to live another day! Gerald’s smile deepened as it became increasingly scarier. “Hmm?” North shivered and gulped. She felt as though there was a knife against her throat. She immediately rushed to Gerald’s side and announced, “Please don’t joke about it. The person that I like is Gerald!” Nathan immediately continued, “That’s right! It’s Gerald. She doesn’t like me!” The manager was puzzled. “But didn’t both of you order a pair of wedding rings…” They were about to get marr

    North was shocked. What was Gerald talking about? She knocked on the door, but Gerald did not budge. She went to look for Steward, but Steward claimed that only Gerald had the keys. North felt a little bit guilty. She went upstairs and knocked on the door again. “Gerald, I’m used to sleeping in the master bedroom. I won’t get good quality sleep if I sleep elsewhere.” Even though she had forgotten to bring her husband earlier, it would be alright if she apologized, right? Inside the master bedroom, Gerald put away a book. His gold-rimmed glasses glinted as he said indifferently, “The other master bedroom is empty. You can sleep there.” After a short pause, the man continued indifferently, “I recall when you first came here, you were staying there.” North was dumbfounded. When she first got married to Gerald, she thought that she and Gerald should sleep in separate rooms because their marriage was not real. However, Gerald was her actual husband. Why would she need to

    North stared at Leon’s text message and gulped. She did not rush to reply. She wanted to approach this tactfully. [Leon, are men always very mysterious?]Gerald chuckled. It seemed like North was trying to enquire about relationship problems. He paused for a while before he asked. [Like?]North replied. [Would you usually be… angry with your wife?]Gerald could not help but chuckle. His eyes were glinting in playfulness. [Hmm, it depends. We don’t really fight. Why?]North’s first thought was that Leon was indeed a married man as predicted. Her second thought was that normal people would not be angry at their spouses for no reason. She repeated the incident to Leon. [...Just because I didn’t wait for him, he wanted to sleep in a separate room. It’s ridiculous!] Gerald looked at her text message as his eyes darkened. It seemed like North still did not understand why he was angry. What should he do? He was not angry about the fact that she did not wait for him. Instead…

    After he read the message that North sent to Leon, he listened to the voice message that she sent to him again.“Hubby… I know I’m wrong, please don’t be angry. I can’t sleep when I’m not with you. Do you really want me to sleep alone?”[He actually wanted to sleep in a separate room! What kind of husband is he!] [He’s so cold-hearted! I’ve already lowered myself, but he still didn’t reply to my message!] [Do you think he can’t get it up anymore? It must be because he’s too stressed!] Gerald was silent for a whole minute after reading her messages about him not being able to get it up due to stress… He took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. He replayed the voice message again. After hearing it for the third time, he smiled and replied using Leon’s account. [Is it true that you can’t sleep well?] North immediately replied, [Of course not. I have very good sleep quality. I’m just finding an excuse.] [Leon, how can I get back to the master bedroom? Do you think he’ll

    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?”
