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

    Estella’s daughter?!The senior officials in the reception room exchanged awkward glances with each other before quickly turning to North. Linda’s face burned. Without a doubt, the stunt Alexander pulled was a slap in the face to Melinda and Linda.“But didn’t you talk to Eiger and agree to collaborate with Melinda? Mr. Alexander, I know you and North are friends, but you can’t back down from a promise! My poor daughter, boohoo…”Annoyed, Alexander scowled at the crying. “I promised to collaborate with the oldest daughter of the Myers family. Do you really think that the illegitimate daughter is the oldest daughter?“Who gave you the gall to place your illegitimate daughter as the oldest daughter? Did the mistress give it to you?”Everyone was not looking happy, and when they finally understood what was happening, their expressions froze.The oldest daughter was the one Alexander really wanted to collaborate with. Though the Myers family assumed he was talking about Melinda, it

    Henry took a moment to calm down. He knew he could not give all the credit to North.Linda glanced around. “Henry, here’s the plan. Later, Melinda will come with Alexander. We’ll say it’s a collaborative effort between both North and Melinda. This way, we involve North and fulfill Melinda’s wish.”Henry nodded. “I guess that’s our only option. Melinda, there’ll be reporters at the project site. I’ll lend you my most expensive car. Arriving at that car will make you look grander than North. People will naturally assume you’re in charge.”Melinda clenched her fists. “Okay, father.”…In the office, Alexander frowned and said, “There’s a huge problem with this project.”North blinked. “That’s why I asked for your help. Mr. Alexander, are you refusing to help me?”Alexander trembled. “Don’t talk to me in that tone. Forget it. I’ll help you to the very end. I’ll go to the site later and see if there are any areas where I can make modifications. If changes are still possible, I’ll do

    Melinda shook her head pretentiously. “But if I take the car, where will North sit?”Henry became irritated. “There aren’t any extra cars left. Just let her take a taxi.”“Melinda, you’re the apple of our eyes. You should ride in the car. It’s your destiny,” said Linda.She then turned to look at North and put on a show to ask, “North, you’re a good kid. You wouldn’t compete with Melinda, would you?”North chuckled lightly. Take a taxi?Melinda and Alexander got to ride in the hundred-million-dollar car to the site, but she had to take a taxi there. Undoubtedly, the reporters would highlight Melinda as the leader of this collaboration.Of course, she would not fall for such a simple trap.Melinda looked at North with total contempt.What a joke. Even if North has caught Alexander’s attention, with the Myers family’s support, no matter how hard North tries, she would never win against her.With that thought, Melinda grinned. She then signaled the driver to open the door so sh

    Henry was horrified. This collaboration was crucial for Myers Corporation!If Alexander were to leave, the collaboration would plunge into failure. Henry would not be able to explain himself to the shareholders. He might even need to use the mansion as collateral!Fear surged within him. He hurriedly approached Alexander and spoke ingratiatingly amid Melinda’s reluctant gaze.“It’s all a misunderstanding! I would never treat North like this! This luxury car was meant for her!”Melinda’s body quivered. “Father...”That was her car! It was for her to show off! What gave North the right to take it?But Henry had no time to attend to Melinda’s emotions now. “North, you silly child. You said the car was too flashy and refused to get in. Look, Mr. Alexander has misunderstood. Quick, get in the car.”Alexander smirked, “Ah, so I’ve misunderstood.”Henry felt an intense urge to strangle North, but for the moment, he had to maintain the facade of a compassionate father.“Yes, I love No

    The realization caused North to blush and left her uncertain about where to place her hands.She could see nothing right now, so her other senses were heightened.She could sense Gerald’s heartbeat and the contours of his abdominal muscles. Further down, she felt... She immediately cut herself off. She felt a mixture of embarrassment and anger. “How could you roam around the house naked?!”Gerald was stunned. He then chuckled softly. “North, I heard your voice and thought something happened. That’s why I came out of the shower directly. Who wears clothes while showering?”He had a point. Nevertheless, North felt a sudden tightness in her throat. “At least put on something...”Gerald’s voice was hoarse as he responded, “It seemed urgent, so I only managed to grab a towel.”She breathed a sigh of relief, grateful that he covered himself down there... But on second thought, she almost tripped because of him, no?She gritted her teeth. “Why didn’t you turn on the lights?”His g

    Just as North finished her meal and prepared to sneak away, she saw Steward hastily approach Gerald. “Mr. Gerald, Mrs. Lane and Ms. Jane are here.”North immediately became attentive.Why were they here again? Had they not embarrassed themselves enough already?Gerald paused briefly before sneering. “I don’t want to see them.”“I’ve told them that you’re not receiving any guests as well,” Steward said. He looked. “But they...”Before he could finish, Jane’s plaintive cry could be heard from outside the door. “Gerald, I’m here to apologize...”Gerald narrowed his eyes as impatience flashed across his gaze.Both Jane and Georgia held significant statuses. The bodyguards were reluctant to intercept them if they intruded.Jane glanced at North with an innocent and aggrieved expression.“Gerald, I need to talk to you. Could you please ask North to leave?”North raised an eyebrow. What an opportunist. How could she, as a guest, ask the host to leave?She found it strange— how coul

    North sneered coldly.David’s words sounded flattering. He praised her for remaining calm in unexpected situations, but in reality, he implied that she had a dark disposition.On the other hand, he suggested that Jane was still a naive girl. Whenever something happened, it was written all over her face. That was why North was able to snatch Gerald from her.She nodded thoughtfully as she listened to David’s remarks, noticing the subtle traps within.“Hmm, indeed. Despite her age, she still can’t distinguish good from bad. Perhaps there’s a loose wire in her brain. It’s no surprise Gerald didn’t choose her.”Jane’s face flushed with anger. “You!”David stopped Jane and sarcastically turned to North, saying, “Ms. North, you’re quite eloquent.”North responded, “Oh, you flatter me.”David barely concealed the contempt in his eyes. He felt it would be beneath him if he were to speak more with her. So, he turned directly to Gerald.“Gerald, I want to acknowledge that what happened

    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?”
