Sherry waited until most of the people came in before heading outside.At that moment, several people who were coming through the door were talking as they passed her.Sherry heard what they were saying.“Is it true that Master Stockton will come tonight? I heard that he basically stopped attending evening events after he had his daughter.”“I heard from Peter that he will come. Today is the eighth anniversary of our company in Glanchester. He’ll definitely come over.”Sherry could not help but stop in her tracks.Were these all Stockton Tower employees?John was coming over, so he would bring Caprice over as well, right?Sherry immediately pulled her scarf up and followed them to a banquet hall.There was a waiter at the entrance of the hall checking their invitations. She could not sneak in, so she returned to the entrance of the hotel and found a sofa to sit on.She was not far from the door and could see the people coming through it at a glance. However, she was in a corn

Caprice stomped and ran toward him. Her little figure ran quite fast, and in the blink of an eye, she ran up to him and crashed into his arms.Then, she knocked him to the ground with a thump.John leaned back and fell into the snow.Caprice was confused for a moment before she grinned and started to giggle. She was clearly delighted.Sherry watched all of this. She could not help but let out a snicker.In the snow, the father and daughter who fell on the ground immediately turned their heads to look over.Sherry’s expression changed, and she quickly turned her head and hid in a safe corridor.Outside, in the snow, John carried Caprice up.Caprice was still craning her next, looking in the direction where the laughter came from. When she did not see anyone, she frowned and said, “Daddy, I heard someone laughing.”John held her with one hand, put his glasses on with the other, and stood up with her in his arms. He said, “Daddy heard it too.”The little girl muttered in confusi

John did not let Sherry finish and said to Caprice, “Yes, she’s that liar.”Caprice pouted her small lips and looked at Sherry, huffing in anger.Her expression seemed to say, ‘Don’t even think of lying to me again, you liar!’Sherry only felt like there was a thorn stuck in her throat. She clenched her hands, but not long after, she smiled at Caprice again. “Caprice, I’m really not a liar. I’m your—”John interrupted her again, “She’s a liar, Caprice.”Caprice immediately raised her small hands to cover her ears. After looking at Sherry again, she twisted her face and buried it into John’s neck as if saying that she would not be fooled again.John revealed a satisfied smile and looked at Sherry.Sherry could not help but glare at him then opened her mouth and shouted, “I’m your mother, Caprice!”Caprice, who was covering her ears, suddenly turned her face to look at Sherry.John frowned. He clearly did not expect Sherry to shout and quickly pressed Caprice’s head back with on

About an hour passed before Sherry saw John come out with Caprice in his arms.In the night, the little girl was wrapped in his jacket with her face tilted on his shoulder, sleeping soundly.John walked steadily and soon arrived at the parking lot.Peter and a bodyguard walked beside him.In a short while, he carried Caprice to his car.Peter opened the door for him.The corners of his lips curled up slightly as he looked into the car.In an instant, his expression turned cold, and he glanced at the bodyguards standing beside him. “Where’s Sherry?”The bodyguards froze at the same time.One of them pointed to the black car behind them. “Master Stockton, Ms. Fowler is in that car. Do you want her to be brought to your car?”John looked at the car.The bodyguard immediately opened the door on Sherry’s side.The light from the outside shone into the car, and Sherry’s drowsy appearance with her neck shrunken was immediately reflected in the man’s eyes.He narrowed his eyes. “C

John curled his lips into a wicked smile and did not release his grip.Sherry used all her strength but could not break free. Her throat choked for a moment before she smiled at him. “Master Stockton, we’re alone here. It’s not appropriate for you to cling to my hand like this.”John smirked and let her go.Sherry immediately withdrew her hand and sat up straight, then looked over at Caprice in his arms.John turned so that his back was facing her.In his other arm, Caprice was blocked by his figure, thus Sherry could not see the girl at all.She could only move sideways and only stop until she was almost pressing onto him. Then, she raised her chin and saw the girl’s sleeping face through his neckline.Her eyelashes were thick and curved, and the tip of her nose and lips were red and moist. She was absolutely adorable.Sherry loved her the more she looked at her. The corners of her mouth curled up uncontrollably, and she reached out from John’s shoulder to poke at the girl’s f

An invisible cold wind seemed to stab her heart.Sherry’s chest felt suffocated.After a long time, her mood calmed down a bit. The corners of her lips tugged down as she asked, “Then, why are you still going to such great lengths to catch me?”John’s face went cold.Sherry smiled at him and looked at Caprice in his arms.If he did not catch her, how would she have the chance to look at her baby girl so closely?The atmosphere was quiet again for a while.The man’s lips curled up in an evil and dangerous smirk. “Stop the car.”The driver immediately pulled over.He looked at Sherry and said, “Peter, get out and open the door on her side.”From the passenger seat, Peter immediately got out of the car and pulled open the door next to Sherry. The cold whistling wind instantly blew in.John hugged Caprice in his arms tightly and pressed closer to Sherry.Sherry’s gaze flickered, and she asked with a smile, “What are you doing?”She subconsciously moved back as she spoke.When

Madam Stockton was staring at Caprice.John said nothing and handed the girl to his mother.Madam Stockton’s eyes lit up, and she immediately held Caprice like treasure. She stopped telling John to leave the girl at home again.After a while, they walked into John’s yard together.The house was heated and warm.Julie subconsciously reached toward John to help him get his coat.John smiled faintly at her, turned, and handed her the coat. Julie then hung the coat on the hanger beside him.Madam Stockton held Caprice and sat down on the sofa, staring at the girl’s cute and chubby face with joy.Seeing this, Julie whispered to John, “John, it really will cool down in a few days. Mom likes Caprice a lot. Why don’t you leave her home for a few days? Don’t worry. We’ll take good care of her.”John looked at Caprice, who was being held by Madam Stockton. His eyes softened, and he said in a gentle and pleasant voice, “I know you can take care of her, but she can’t live without me for t

Sherry was hiding in the corner with a pillar standing in the way.However, for fear of being discovered, she took out her cell phone from her pocket and pretended to be a passerby making a call.On the other side, Caprice did not see her face and quickly withdrew her eyes. She turned her head to look at her father, who was following her and raised her two little arms toward him.John instantly bent down and picked her up.After sitting firmly in his arms, the little girl raised her hand to point at Sherry behind the pillar. “Daddy, someone's making a phone call there.”John also looked over.Sherry, who was pretending to be on the phone, was speechless.Did the girl notice her?Just as she was so nervous that her heart was about to pop out, she heard John’s voice. “Daddy saw her too.”Then, she heard the sound of him walking up the steps.Soon, the sound of footsteps disappeared. They must have gone inside.Sherry cautiously looked back and did not see their figures. She si

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
