Slightly taken aback, Gerald raised one of his eyebrows.

Alexander rarely turned him down. Gerald wondered who was this important to him.

Gerald had noticed that North was interested in landscape design, so he planned to introduce her to Alexander. However, it happened that Alexander was unable to spare time for them.

Gerald saw North waking up early in the morning. He believed she must have something else to handle. Since this was the case, perhaps it was best that North and Alexander meet up tomorrow.

North was putting her mobile phone away when Gerald replied to his message. North could not help but lament, “It’s no wonder he founded Howard Corporation single-handedly. He starts work so early in the morning.”

After North finished eating, she felt embarrassed about yesterday’s incident. She said softly, “Mr. Gerald, I have some business to handle today, so I won’t come back for lunch. I’ll immediately head to the school in the afternoon.”

Right after she finished speaking,

    Summer immediately recovered her senses. She burned with rage. “Why are you here? You shameless b*tch, are you stalking Mr. Eiger?! Eiger frowned. “You shouldn’t be here.” North drawled, “Why can’t I be here? Do you own this building?” Eiger was annoyed. “You—” “North, did you come to look for Alexander too?” Melinda spoke haltingly, “He’s eccentric and doesn’t see every Tom, Dick, and Harry.” Eiger immediately understood the entire story. Disgusted, he said, “So, you followed us because you wanted to meet Alexander. Give up! I won’t bring you to him. Melinda wants to nail down the contract with him. You’d better behave.” North blinked. “All of you do look very confident!” She asked skeptically, “Are you sure that Melinda can appoint Alexander to be her landscape designer?” Melinda turned pale. She looked aggrieved. Eiger grew even more annoyed. “Even if Melinda cannot appoint Alexander as her landscape designer, could you? Enough. Get lost and stop making a fuss!”

    The air turned still. Eiger looked embarrassed. “Melinda didn’t do it on purpose. Besides, it’s been so long. What else is there to say about it? “Stop putting pressure on me just because you’ve saved my life. As Melinda mentioned, it’s just a scar. You’re still alive. Regardless, you were wrong to strike her!” North raised an eyebrow. “Melinda, I must admit that I’m not as good as you at playing tricks on others.” “It’s just a scar. You’re still alive.” This was how Melinda had brainwashed Eiger over the years. This made Eiger believe that North was asking for it at the time when she nearly lost her life in saving him.Melinda’s expression turned white. She subconsciously threw herself into Eiger’s arms and said weakly, “Eiger, I’m so scared…” Eiger’s heart ached for her. He grew even more furious. “North, look at what you’ve done! Indeed, you’ve saved my life. What of it? You are still alive today. It’s not a big issue. Why must you dig up the past?!” North’s scar remind

    Melinda’s head buzzed. She was so pale that she was on the verge of collapsing. “North is Alexander’s guest for today? “Alexander turned down his appointment with Eiger because of North? “How could that person be North? Why is North able to see him?!” Eiger stumbled backward with wide eyes. Summer incredulously shouted, “How could it be?! Did you make a mistake? My cousin is Melinda, and not North!”Eiger also believed they must have made a mistake. After all, both Melinda and North shared the same surname, and they were siblings. Perhaps—… William impatiently frowned. “There’s no mistake. It’s North. Mr. Alexander explicitly said it to me. I certainly didn’t mishear. Are you questioning me or Mr. Alexander? Does Mr. Alexander need your approval to select his guests? “What’s with this nonsense from you lot?” Right after William spoke, he turned around. His attitude completely changed. “Ms. North, please go upstairs. Mr. Alexander is waiting for you.” North ran her

    “His wife did not major in landscape architecture, but she is interested in design,” Alexander hummed.North continued praising. “Wow, that’s amazing.”A little while later, footsteps could be heard outside the door.Alexander suddenly remembered something. “By the way, I heard that you got married a few days ago. Don’t you have to marry someone from the South family? Why did you get married so soon?” he asked. North stopped peeling the orange in her hands and nonchalantly said, “Oh, it’s okay. I’ve taken care of everything.”Alexander thought she was married to someone else from the South family, but after giving it some serious thought, he was unable to think of any reliable men in the family, which made him worried. “North, you can’t just marry someone on a whim. What’s your husband’s name? I’ll help you do a background check on him. If he treats you badly going forward, you can divorce him after getting your mother’s inheritance.”North frowned. They had known each other

    However, Gerald stopped her from escaping. “Didn’t you tell Alexander that I was the person you’re married to?” he gently asked. North awkwardly explained, “N-not yet…”Alexander was speechless for quite some time. He could not help but think about what North had said moments before.Did she say that her husband cooked for her, drove her to and from college, and was overly clingy? That was Gerald? North gulped and decided to escape while Alexander was still confused. “Thank you for your help, Mr. Alexander. Since there’s nothing more to do, I think I’ll leave now.”She dashed out faster than a rabbit after saying that, and she was gone like the wind. Alexander’s thoughts were interrupted when Gerald asked, “North was the friend you said you owed a favor to?”Gerald raised his eyebrows. She was a skilled designer? Alexander’s compliments seemed to indicate that North was more than just “a little interested” in design, as she had previously stated.After all, Alexander ha

    “You did, after all, tell Alexander yesterday that I would coax you out of bed, cook for you, ask about your day, and personally pick you up. I probably can’t coax you out of bed or make you food, but I still can give you a ride.”“N-no, it’s not like that!” North almost passed out. She did not expect Gerald to still remember what she said the day before! “Mr. Gerald, please don’t misunderstand. I was just running my mouth off.”Gerald put his hands on North’s and smiled. She felt a tingling numbness spread through her hands, and then her seat beat clicked into place.The man asked in a low voice, “Mrs. Howard, are you shaking? Are you nervous?”North felt like there was no way she could explain herself, so she just slumped back into the passenger seat and muttered, “I-I’m not nervous.”Gerald grinned knowingly. His wife was truly a hard-headed person. The car soon arrived in front of Myers Corporation’s building. After getting out of the car, North looked around to check

    Marcus smugly scoffed. “Ms. Melinda, I’m sure you’re aware of North’s arrogance. She repeatedly claimed that I was an outsider. I have been working at Myers Corporation for more than twenty years. I should be given credit for my efforts, at least!”With resignation, Melinda bit her lip and uttered, “North, how can you say that? Mr. Marcus has worked hard for Myers Corporation. Please apologize to him.”Marcus looked at North smugly. North sneered. “So, you do remember that you have worked for over twenty years at Myers Corporation. Do you still remember who your former boss is?”Marcus’ expression changed, and he immediately went speechless. His former boss was the major shareholder in Myers Corporation, Estella Smithson! “My mother, Estella Smithson, founded Myers Corporation. I hold fifty percent of the shares of Myers Corporation. Do I not have the right to visit the company?” North asked coldly. Marcus never expected that North would act in such an imposing manner. His f

    Every shareholder and manager in the room shook their heads. They were extremely disappointed with the young lady. North looked for a place to sit. She heard Linda bragging right after. “North, I heard that you visited Alexander yesterday too? Well, it’s a pity that Melinda secured the spot for the collaboration in the end. But you shouldn’t hold a grudge against her, North.”Many people had taken notice of what Linda had said.“Ms. North paid Alexander a visit too, right? Instead of agreeing to work with her, he agreed to work with Melinda?” “It would be great enough if North doesn’t offend Alexander, and you still want to count on her to do this?”“I would choose Ms. Melinda too if I were Alexander. What more can North do besides causing trouble? She brings bad luck.”“It seems like nobody is satisfied with you,” Linda said smugly. “You should learn more from Melinda.”“Yeah, okay,” North rolled her eyes. Melinda entered, and everyone got up to greet her. They surrounded

    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?”
