Sylvia commended Flint, “Good boy.” With that, the conversation had come to an end. Odell stared at the message Sylvia sent where she claimed she would be back in two days. He found himself grinning without realizing it. Finally, she was coming back. He no longer had to sleep by himself. However, there was the Shermaine issue… He considered for a moment and went to search for Sylvia’s profile in her friend list and wrote a brief message to her that read, “Are you here? There’s something I want to talk to you about.” As soon as he had sent the message, an error appeared on the screen that said, “Message unable to send. User only accepts messages from added accounts.” It would appear that he was still on her blacklist. He heaved a long, tired sigh. He certainly did not hold it against her. It was him that had made a mistake in misplacing his trust in Shermaine. He had gone and ignored Sylvia’s feelings and even accused her of being insensitive to Shermaine’s

Even though it sounded a little comedic coming from Flint, it was still rather magical to hear his son vowing to protect him. Odell stepped into their room in the middle of the night. He looked at the trio sleeping peacefully in bed. It was a loving picture. These three were very unique in their own way. They were very bright and rarely caused trouble for him. All the credit went to his wife. It was either her or his good fortune that he ended up having such wonderful children. He gently ruffled their heads to not wake them and went back to his bedroom. It was a tranquil night just like any other night. He did not feel sleepy at all. A montage of what happened recently constantly played in his mind. It was what happened ever since Sylvia left. He was thinking about what he found about Shermaine. It was eleven years ago when her mysterious benefactor appeared. Eleven years… Suddenly, something sparked in his eyes, and he suddenly realized something.

Shermaine was dumbstruck by the unannounced visit. "Why are you here?" Ruth answered in an unserious voice, “Because I missed you and figured I'd come to see you.” Shermaine grimaced and needed several seconds to collect her thoughts. "Wait for me at the airport, I’m coming right away.” With that, she hung up. She was already done with her work for the day. She swiftly grabbed her purse and trotted out. A colleague who was assigned near her desk swept a glance at her quickly departing figure and proceeded to pick up the phone to contact Cliff. … Half an hour later, Westchester International Airport. Shermaine got out of the car and walked as fast as she could to one of the arrival gates. It did not take long before she identified a woman who stood out from the rest of the crowd. This was a middle-aged woman in a hat and sunglasses. Though plainly dressed, she exuded a fine air of elegance. She waved and greeted her with a pleasant smile, “Aunt Ruth!”

Cliff flung Shermaine’s hands away from him. He answered stoically, “We didn’t suspect a thing until you began getting desperate and that provoked our suspicion.” Desperate? Shermaine pried further. “Was it what I did to Master Carter in the basement parking that night that gave me away?” "That's right." Shermaine's face turned ashen. So it was what happened that night that blew her cover. However, she could recall how Odell was only briefly upset with her and forgave her the very next day when she apologized to him! "I don't believe you, there must be more to it!” Shermaine squealed and shouted in Odell’s direction, “Master Carter, could you please answer me?" Cliff was deeply insulted by this gesture. He promptly stepped into the car and shut the door. He had already been gracious enough to answer her persistent questions. He did it out of recognition of the rapport he built with her over the last two years. How dare she overstep her boundaries and ex

Thomas’s face was still fair and handsome, and even the buzz cut could not hide his youth and elegance.When Ruth looked at him, he quirked his lips at her and said in a gentle voice, “Mom, you’re here.”Ruth swiped a hand under her nose and looked at him with tears in her eyes. “Thomas, how have you been doing here these past few years?”“Let’s sit down and talk.” He gestured to her. It was very different from his cold and aloof behavior from the past. Now, whether it was his appearance or actions, he was very gentle and mild in temperament.Ruth sat across from him and stared at him intently.Thomas smiled faintly at her. “I came here of my own violation.”Ruth was stunned.“I’ve done many things to hurt them. Grandma became a vegetable, Sylvia suffered from depression, and there were many other bad things that I’ve done,” he said calmly. “I wanted to atone for my sins, so I came here.”If he did not want to be imprisoned, he would have had hundreds of ways to escape a few ye

The sky darkened, and the cold night emerged.Ruth’s eyes were still red when she came out.Cliff and a few bodyguards sized her up suspiciously when they saw her.Her expression shifted, and she took sunglasses from her bag and put them on.Cliff smiled and asked, “What did Second Master Carter tell you, Madam?”Ruth ignored him, went straight past the black MPV, and sat in the ordinary sedan behind. Then, she said to Jacob in the driver’s seat, “Take me to the airport.”Jacob exchanged a look with Cliff outside the car.Cliff heard Ruth’s words and nodded to Jacob.The other two bodyguards who were responsible for keeping an eye on Ruth immediately got into the car, and the ordinary sedan drove off in the direction of the airport.Cliff returned to the car and looked at the man sitting alone in the back seat with a smile. “She’s gone, sir.”Odell’s face was expressionless. “Mm.”“I wonder what Second Master Carter said to her. She seemed to be crying before she came out, b

Madam Carter went back to her room to rest.The three little ones were playing games in their room.Odell asked Aunt Tonya, “Aunt Tonya, did Sylvia contact you today?”Aunt Tonya replied, “She called me last night, but she hasn’t contacted me today.”“Did she say anything to you last night?”Aunt Tonya smiled. “She said that she might be back today.”Odell’s eyes lit up. His mood, which had been dull for a while, suddenly cheered up.She had not contacted Aunt Tonya and the little ones until now. Was it because she was already on the plane already?He turned around and went back to the bedroom which was clean and tidy. A maid came in every day to clean it.He entered the checkroom and took out a comfortable pair of pajamas and slippers for her. She had been away for so many days and traveled the whole day today, so she must be exhausted upon returning.He prepared all the things that she would use so that when the time came, she could just wash up and sleep soundly in his arm

In the children’s room, Isabel was looking at Flint.Flint had an innocent face. “I really didn’t lend it to Daddy.”He only had a child’s phone watch and had not even logged into his account. How could he have lent it to his father?Liam, who was looking at his phone, suddenly said, “That’s not Flint’s account. Dad added himself using a fake account. His profile picture and username are the same as Flint’s.”Isabel was stunned.Flint also turned to look at himLiam looked at them and said, “Dad disguised himself as Flint on purpose.”Isabel and Flint were both speechless.After a moment, as the group admin, Isabel asked, “When did he join the group? Also, where did Flint’s number go? Why don’t I know what’s going on here?”“It should be the night when the group was first created. Dad confiscated your phone once and used your phone to kick Flint out, then he added himself in.”Isabel said, “Daddy is so cunning.”Flint said, “The older, the wiser.”In Odell and Sylvia’s room

She was her usual self in every aspect. She put her heart into her job and never started trouble so long as nobody tried to start trouble with her. The crew cycled through their locations during their shoot. The constant travel made her skin break out slightly, but there were no other concerns otherwise. The shoot progressed very smoothly and within three months, they managed to wrap up everything at the mountainous region previously mentioned. It was nearly evening when they wrapped up the shoot. Holding a bouquet in hand, she took a group picture with the crew and celebrated with everyone. After that, she planned to hitch a ride with another crew member and leave for home. To their demise, some men in uniform who claimed to be the road maintenance technicians showed up to break the bad news to them. They mentioned that they had to repair some of the roads urgently and so the way home was temporarily obstructed. The director took his phone and called the city hotline fo

He remembered his first meeting with Isabel. She was sitting all by herself on the floor, in the middle of nowhere. Her vulnerable expression only made her more endearing. So, he managed to get her to go to his place and installed her in his home. He fell for her and paid careful attention to all her needs. It did not take long before Isabel caught feelings for him as well. The two of them got together in no time. Their days were plain and ordinary, but also very fulfilling, that was until he met Clarice. With the help of his father, his power struggle with Roland had reached a tipping point. It was at that opportune moment when Clarice’s father saw something in Roland and planned to wed his daughter Clarice to him to join up their families, which was a cause for alarm for Decker. He stressed over it for an entire night before approaching Clarice himself the very next day. Clarice quickly caught feelings for him as well. Furthermore, Roland had been foolish enough to reject

Decker was smiling quite earnestly at Isabel. Isabel threw a deeply suspicious look at him, then she glanced at the stack of documents laid out on top of the table in front of her. “Transferal of Shares.” She was dumbfounded. "I've gone through the contract, it’s safe to sign so go ahead.” Roland picked up a pen and handed it to her. "Roland, I..." "Sign it first, I’ll explain when we get home.” Isabel frowned and tried to protest. "I—" "Don't make me have to beg." Isabel did not know how to respond. Fine. She briefly scanned through the contract. The contract stated Decker’s agreement to transfer the remaining forty percent of his shares in Rockwell Corporation to her. Roland must have talked to the shareholders of Rockwell Corporation about this as well. They all regarded Isabel with polite smiles. Isabel had flipped through the final page of the document. She signed her name on one of the marked-out sections. She proceeded to sign all thr

They ended the call shortly after that. Isabel glanced at Martha and was hesitating if she should break the news right away. Martha seemed to have sensed her staring and suddenly turned to her with a flash of concern. "Isabel, what's wrong?" Isabel took a deep breath and broke the news. "Auntie, Master Rockwell just passed away." Martha's eyes widened. After a lengthy silence that lasted more than ten seconds, she started to break out in tears. She covered her face with her hands and expressed amid bouts of tears mixed with laughter, “Wonderful! About time! I hope he enjoys life in the underworld. God knows that someone like him will never deserve a spot in heaven!” Isabel did not know whether she should celebrate with Martha or console her. Soon, Martha began to collect herself. She briefly wiped away her tears and joyfully took Isabel's hand. "Isabel, let’s go shopping! I’m in such a good mood today, I’m going to go on a shopping spree!” "Okay. But Roland w

Isabel held onto Roland's hand firmly during the entire drive home after leaving the hospital. It was because Roland’s hands were cold and rigid. Isabel sat with him and tirelessly rubbed his hand to keep them warm. After one hand was warm, she would shift her attention to the other. By the time she managed to warm the other hand, the original hand would turn cold again. She decided it was easier to take both of his hands and caress them with the warmth of her palms. Roland looked at her with a gentle glow deep within his eyes. “Thank you, Isabel,” he said softly. Thank you for loving him, and for sticking by his side all this time despite circumstances. Isabel smiled. “I’m just warming your hands, it's no big deal. Still, you’re welcome." Roland smiled faintly and left it at that. Soon, his hands began to warm up off of the heat of Isabel’s palms. When Isabel felt that his hands were no longer freezing, she prepared to pull her hand away. That was when

Decker looked nothing like his usual self. The pompous, arrogant man who held himself far above others and who expected everyone around him to kiss up to him because he was superior to them all. It was as if he had been plunged not only to Earth but a pile of swamp. He had completely lost his usual grace. Isabel said crossly, "Decker, have you gone mental? Is everything going on too much for you?” “Yeah, could you help me?” he said with a coy smile, “Just one hug should be enough to take care of it all.” Isabel rolled her eyes. Without warning, he suddenly braced himself and lunged right at Isabel, stepping past Brandon who was caught off guard by this sudden attack. Isabel barely had time to react. Just when it seemed like his hand was about to graze Isabel, a long pair of arms seized Isabel from behind and jerked her backward. It was swiftly followed by a long, muscular leg shooting outward right next to Isabel. Thump! Decker was kicked to the ground.

"How did you and Roland meet?" Decker suddenly asked. Isabel turned away, fully intent on ignoring him. "Did you meet each other at Carter Corporation? Or did you meet him outside of work and gradually fell in love with him, then you decided to set him up with a position at Carter Corporation?” What did he mean by that? Was he insinuating that Roland was relying on her to snake his way into Carter Corporation? She threw a sideways, belittling look at him. "Do you think Roland is anything like you? He wouldn’t latch on another woman to further his goals.” Decker was not upset by this as he continued with a smug smile. "Oh? Then how did he get into Carter Corporation?" “He proved his worth.” Isabel realized that she had been roped in by Decker again. Nevertheless, she continued, “He passed the interviews himself. I was one of the interviewers and initially planned to dismiss him, but he managed to leave a very good impression on my father and the rest was history.” "

"I never meant to kill him! Roland, you have to believe me. Why would I still try to deceive you when I’m in this state?” “In that case, you can go ahead and explain things to him in the afterlife.” Master Rockwell was taken aback by this, his demeanor tightened. "You...you..." Roland looked at him calmly. "Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you. It was Grandma and my parents who raised me. They instilled morals and virtue into me and made sure I’d grow into a decent man.” Master Rockwell was briefly relieved to hear this, but before he could rid himself of his trepidation, Roland continued in a dark voice, "But I won’t forget about you and Decker bribing all those media outlets to defame Isabel. I know you manipulated the stock prices to try to kick me out of the corporation. I’ll make sure to settle our score through the legal system.” If convicted guilty, they would have to rot in prison. “Roland… listen to me, Roland. Decker is your uncle. If you want revenge, you can come

Master Rockwell must have heard their shifting movements and opened his eyes. When he recognized the faces of Roland and Isabel, there was a brief glow in his murky eyes. He motioned to the nurse to have her help him sit up from the bed. After he managed to position himself seated up against the head of the bed, he asked the nurse to leave. Then he cast a loving, tender smile on Roland and Isabel. “Roland, Isabel, please have a seat.” Roland said disinterestedly, "We have things to get to, just hurry up and tell us what you have to say." Isabel stayed silent. A look flashed in Master Rockwell's eyes. Then, he turned to Isabel and expressed regretfully, "Isabel, I’m a foolish old man, it was me who told Decker to leak pictures of you two. He had no choice because I forced him to do so. If you have to blame someone, blame me!” Isabel frowned. She was somewhat impressed by how smoothly the old man switched his mask from one to another. From a forlorn and sad state t
