North was not interested in Bryan’s blind dates. After hanging up, she suddenly heard Gerald speak.

“Mr. Jordan doesn’t want to go on blind dates. Or rather, he’s very against it.”

North raised her eyebrows. “It doesn’t matter. He doesn’t dare to defy Mrs. Jordan’s orders.”

The blind date was Mrs. Jordan’s idea. Bryan had never disobeyed his mother. Even if he did not want to, he would still go.

North frowned in disdain. “Bryan is pretending to be affectionate. The entire world knows that he’s ‘unwavering’ toward my mother and hasn’t married yet, but I really wonder if he had any love for my mother.”

If he liked her, why did not he marry her? If he liked her, why did he let her humiliate him?

If he did not like her, why didn’t he get married to someone different? If he did not like her, why did he keep her belongings and portraits?

Gerald said slowly, “Love? Of course, he did.”

North did not believe him.

“For some people, love isn’t worth much. They can give anyone and everyon

    “That’s right. What will people think of the Howard family if they find out?”North raised her eyebrows. It was Mike’s voice.The others should be people sent by the Howard family to support Mike.Mike’s eyes darkened. He wanted to teach North a lesson today when Gerald was not around!If he removed her from her position as the head of the design department, she would not dare to resist!Mike pretended to sigh and said, “That’s right. The position of the department head belongs to those who are capable and experienced. Gerald made a mistake, so he should correct it. In the future, I will also be a member of Deep Pool Corporation. Why don’t we do this? I will make the decision to remove North…“Those who are capable and experienced should take the lead, right?” North opened the door of the meeting room and stood directly in front of Mike. “It seems like you have a lot of opinions about me, don’t you?”Mike gritted his teeth and wished he could skin North alive.It was this woman

    No one dared to speak.Mike was the beloved son of the Howard family, and North was Gerald’s wife. It would do no good to get caught in the crossfire if they fought.Mike thought that North was afraid. He took a step forward and thought that he was very imposing. “What else do you have to say? Don’t you feel ashamed at all when you see your senior?!”“Ashamed?”North chuckled and looked at Heath meaningfully.“I’m a little curious. You’re twenty years my senior, right? What kind of skills do you have?”Heath and Mike looked at each other and cleared their throats. They could not hide the pride in their eyes.“Since you’re curious, I’ll tell you.“I won the Excellence Award at the fifth Eisen Design Competition.”North looked confused.Heath saw that North did not say anything and said smugly, “It seems that you still don’t know how significant this is. It’s okay. As your senior, I’ll explain.“The Eisen Design Competition is a worldwide design competition. It tests the overa

    What a joke!Heath’s eyes were filled with unconcealed contempt. Without thinking, he lectured her.“Ms. North, you have to at least win an award. I don’t expect you to win a world-class award. But at least a country-level award…”“I don’t have a real world-class award.” North nodded and interrupted him.Heath thought to himself that North was still so arrogant even without an award. She was certainly full of herself!“However, I’ve been a judge in world-class competitions, including the fifth Eisen Design Competition.”North pondered for a while. “Although I don’t know what’s to be proud of for winning the consolation prize, I remember that… you didn’t seem to be on the consolation prize list that year, right, Mr. Heath?”Everyone fell silent.Although North’s tone was uncertain, everyone could hear the mockery in her words.Heath was not on the consolation prize list. So, how did he get the consolation prize?! This was clearly telling everyone that Heath bought the award!H

    Who was Star? Why were these people so protective of North?!North smiled gently. “Don’t be angry. Mike has been sheltered by the Howard family. He doesn’t know much about these things.”The deputy head sneered in disgust. “I don’t know what the Howard family is thinking. Aren’t they afraid of going bankrupt if they let a piece of trash inherit the family business?”Mike’s face was red with anger. He clenched his fists and only spat out a few words after a long while.“Ha! I didn’t expect you to be so… outstanding, North.”North nodded. “It’s good that you know now.”She turned to look at Heath and asked doubtfully, “So, why aren’t you leaving?”Mike was dumbstruck.He was furious, but he was the one who said that the most experienced person should have this position!“Alright, then I hope that you can continue to be arrogant, North! Let’s go!”Heath followed Mike out unwillingly. He originally thought that the position as the head of the design department of Deep Pool Corpor

    Perhaps Gerald would not think much of it now.But when Mike became the head of the Bracken family in the future, would Gerald hate North?After all, all of this was originally his, but he gave it up for her…Patricia wanted the children of the two women she hated the most to kill each other!At the thought of this, Patricia continued, “Gerald, I’m doing this for your own good. This way, you can have a place in the Howard and Bracken families. When the time comes, we will hold a grand banquet at Glass Manor. As long as you tell everyone at the banquet…”“Okay.” Before Patricia could finish, Gerald nodded lightly.“That you personally admitted that you voluntarily gave up…” Patricia suddenly paused. “Wait, what did you say?!”“Isn’t Grandma going to hold a banquet at Glass Manor?” Gerald asked calmly. “I agree.”Patricia did not expect Gerald to agree so easily!Glass Manor was Paige’s most valuable asset left to Gerald, but Gerald was actually willing to give it up?Patricia

    Gerald placed his palm on Giselle’s hand and said, “I will take care of Paige’s things well. Whether it’s Glass Manor or anything else, Patricia and Mike can forget about getting a single cent from her.”How could Giselle not want to agree? “But it will be very difficult for you.”“Difficult?” Gerald sneered. “No, it’s the Bracken family that’s difficult.”“Gerald…” With tears in her eyes, Giselle suddenly asked a shocking question. “Actually, you’re Paige’s son, right?”All these years, no one knew what Patricia had done. Giselle had done countless paternity tests in private, but Gerald had nothing to do with Paige.However, she had a feeling that Patricia knew very well that Gerald was Paige’s child.That was why the Howard family and the Bracken family were targeting him like this.Giselle suddenly fell into great sorrow. She had not been able to protect her daughter back then, and now, she could not even protect her daughter’s child.She could not even prove Gerald’s identi

    However, North did not think so. “This should be a coincidence.”Charlotte frowned. “Coincidence? Even if it was a coincidence at first, it’s definitely disgusting to arrange it on this day after finding out.”Unexpectedly, North shook her head and said softly, “Patricia is a smart person. If she wants Mike to get everything from Paige, she won’t leave any evidence behind.“But what do you think others will think if we publicly tear up Paige’s will on the anniversary of her death?”Charlotte fell silent.What would others think? Between Paige and Patricia, one was the real daughter, while one was the adopted daughter. One was the first wife, and the other was the mistress.Their identities were naturally at odds.Paige was dead. However, Patricia was still alive. If Patricia still tore up Paige’s will on the anniversary of her death, in the eyes of others, it would prove she was just an ungrateful adopted daughter.If Patricia was smarter, she would definitely not have chosen t

    The 28th of March had arrived.The weather was very good, and the flowers were blooming in spring.Glass Manor was filled with snowdrops and fresh green willow trees. The landscape was gorgeous.Everyone in Glass Manor had been replaced by people who worked for Patricia. The banquet was about to begin in two hours, and everyone was making preparations.Mike had been in a good mood for the last few days.Gerald had simply handed over Glass Manor without any resistance.When the banquet started later, the Bracken family would announce Mike’s identity, and he would be able to get a bigger slice of the pie.As for Gerald?Well, he was born to be a sacrificial lamb… just like how Paige was a sacrificial lamb to the Bracken family.No matter how talented Paige was initially, as a daughter, wasn’t she still a liability to the Bracken family?Mike decided that he would move to Glass Manor in the future!“Mr. Mike, Madam Patricia wants you to change your clothes. The guests are arriv

    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?”
