Mable stayed silent. It was almost a minute before Adam's voice came through. "I’m handing the phone to Rorr."Mable nodded. "Okay."She was curious about what Rory had to say.After waiting for a while, he remained quiet.Mable glanced at her phone. The call was ongoing, but she grew impatient and spoke up first. "Rory.""Yeah," came the deep voice from the other end of the line, devoid of emotion."What did you want to talk about?" Mable asked.There was a two-second pause before Rory slowly responded, "I've instructed Adam to cancel the collaboration with Joseph. You don't need to worry about the Monafett Royal Family; I'll handle it."Mable let out a faint laugh. "All of this is because of you, so don't expect me to thank you."Rory's tone remained calm. "I didn't expect you to thank me.""Mable." Rory hesitated, then paused before speaking again, "Are you okay?"As Mable watched Lemon chasing butterflies in the garden, she thought of Blair, Spike, and Nicki.She felt
Mable recounted her recent phone call with Rory to Blair. As the video call had not ended, Solomon heard everything Mable said."So, Rory has recovered his primary personality, regrets his actions, and canceled the cooperation with Joseph. Is that why Joseph's operation didn't involve Secret this time?" Solomon speculated.Mable nodded. "Seems like it."From their conversation, Mable could tell Rory regretted his actions. It was not just regret but also self-blame and remorse. That was why she had to bite her tongue and refrain from scolding him earlier. Having Dissociative Identity Disorder was not his fault. However, she could not just casually say it was okay, considering the substantial harm he had caused her. If Rory could not fully control his alter ego, they were better off never seeing each other again.Solomon continued, "If that's the case, things just got much simpler."With no need to worry about Secret causing trouble, they could focus solely on dealing with
Mable nodded, smiling as she told Rahman, "Yeah, it's a guy.""Do I know him?""Yeah, you do."Rahman asked, and Mable replied, one after another.At that moment, Blair's phone also rang. He glanced at the caller ID, then whispered to Mable, "I have to take this call."Mable said, "Sure."Rahman continued, "But wait, it's past ten in Richworth. Who are you with at this hour? Some playboy?""He’s not a playboy," Mable said.Rahman's tone grew excited. "Not a playboy? Come on, Mable, don't tell me you've found someone new?"Mable looked towards Blair, who was on the balcony talking on the phone, and smiled. "It's not someone new; it's my past lover.""Past lover?" Rahman did not believe it. "You have another one whom I also know? It's not Hugh, is it?""Stop guessing randomly; it's not!" Rahman was getting anxious. "Quit keeping me in suspense. Who is it?"He knew Mable had deep feelings for Blair. It had not even been half a year since Blair's death. She could not possibly
Mable held her phone, watching Rahman on the video call. "Rahman, don't be mad," she said.Rahman chuckled. He looked at Mable and sincerely said, "I'm not mad. Although Blair isn't very likable, I know you'll be fine if he's okay. If he's alive, it is good news. I’m happy for you."Rahman stared at Mable and emphasized each word, "Really, Mable, congratulations."His greatest hope was for her to meet good people, fulfill her wishes, and receive what she gave.Her future would be filled with happiness so long as Blair was alive.Mable looked at Rahman, feeling moved, and nodded earnestly. "Rahman, thank you."Mable felt fortunate to have such a sincere friend.Rahman said, "Some trivial matters here need my attention. After I'm done, I'll come to Richworth to see you."Before officially becoming the heir, he could still move freely without reporting. Once it was announced, it would not be so easy to leave the country.Mable nodded. "Okay."Mable chatted a little more with Rah
Mable and Blair had experienced ups and downs in their relationship over the years. Both had been through a lot, so they cherished each other more and hoped for a simple and happy life together.Blair leaned down to kiss Mable's lips, his voice husky, "Remember we talked about traveling the world once everything's settled? How about we go when Little Lemon is older and can be away from us?""Huh?" Mable blinked. "Without the kid?""Yep!" He just wanted to spend quality time alone with Mable and make up for all the lost years.Blair said, "Spike and Nicki are old enough to care for their sister. No need to worry."Mable smiled and cupped his face. "Are you sure? What if Spike and Nicki don't want to?"Blair gently massaged Mable's scalp, sounding confident as he said, "They will. Taking care of their sister is their responsibility as older siblings."Then, Blair kissed her. "Don't you want to spend quality time alone with me?"Mable replied, "I do."Blair smiled satisfactoril
Tracey had nothing to do that morning, so she headed to Royal View Villa. Upon entering the house, the maid informed her that Mable was in the children's room playing with Lemon while Blair was in the garden. Tracey went straight to the garden, intending to greet Blair first. However, as she approached him from behind, she overheard him talking to someone on the phone. "Think you can keep it a secret forever? Arthur, Trace will find out sooner or later."Tracey froze in her tracks, her expression changing slightly. That sentence contained a lot of information, and she found it hard to digest all at once. Her brother was on the phone with Arthur, and they were keeping something from her!What could it be? Why would Blair say they could not keep it a secret forever? What had Arthur done?In just a few seconds, Tracey's mind conjured up countless possibilities.Seeing Blair hang up the phone, she said, "Blair, what were you and Arthur talking about?"Blair stiffened at th
Blair recalled when Arthur knelt before him and confessed his love for Tracey. If he did not love him, he would not have done that.It was for Tracey that Arthur decided to betray James and stand on his own.Thinking back on the days she spent with Arthur, Tracey's heart grew heavier.She sobbed, "Blair, Arthur never seemed to consider marrying me or spending his life with me."Blair's brows furrowed even more. "Why would you say that?""I hinted at marriage to him, but he didn't react at all. Also…"Tracey lowered her head, embarrassed to say the rest.When they were together, she intentionally teased Arthur, saying she did not want to use protection. However, Arthur's face changed immediately, and he disagreed.At the time, Tracey was a little annoyed. Was he so worried about her getting pregnant? Their relationship was so good that they could naturally consider marriage if she did get pregnant.However, Arthur did not think that way.Blair stared at Tracey. She had menti
Blair watched as Tracey cried like a teary mess and patted her shoulder. "Stop crying. It's Arthur who's injured, not you. He didn't cry, so why are you?"Tracey lifted her head and glared at him. "Can't I feel sorry for my boyfriend? If Mabes were hurt, I don't believe you wouldn't feel sad enough to cry.""Tracey?"Mable came down from upstairs to find Tracey crying and thought Blair had bullied her again."Why are you crying? What happened?" Mable asked with concern.Seeing Mable, Tracey's tears flowed even more profusely. "Mabes.""Alright, alright, don't cry. Tell me, what happened? Did your brother bully you?" Mable glared at Blair as she spoke, “Why are you bullying Tracey?”"Not me, it's Arthur."Misunderstood by his wife, Blair felt wronged and explained the situation to Mable.After listening, Mable took Tracey back to their room and comforted her. "Solomon said Arthur's injuries aren't life-threatening, and he didn't want to worry you. That’s why he didn't tell yo
