Carl bolted up and slammed the chair that he did not throw earlier on the table.

The loud thud shocked Ron, causing him to clench his cup tightly. He glared at Carl. “Carl, what is the meaning of this? I’m your uncle, I’m your senior! What is this disrespect?”

Carl narrowed his charming eyes. “That’s not what you said when you slandered me and before the police came in. Uncle. Senior.”

Ron choked on the reply. “You…You…”

“Stop you-ing me. If I were you, I’d rather think of a way to save your precious son than argue with us here.”

Ron’s expression changed.

Carl grinned. “Oh, right, Uncle. Your son just committed a crime!”

Even though Sherry was not severely injured, Aiden would have to stay at the station for some time. Committing a crime was not a small matter, even more so when the target of the crime was Sherry, someone who worked for the company.

The shareholders would not be able to help him anymore or allow him to return to the company.

Ron’s expression turned gr

    “I heard Aiden was taken away by the police. Is it true?” Lisa asked excitedly. Sherry and Carl nodded tacitly. “What was his reaction when he’s taken away? Is that bastard Ron here as well? What was the look on his face?” “They all…looked like they ate shit,” Sherry said. “Yeah. Disgusting,” Carl echoed. Lisa was over the moon, but when she learned that Aiden was arrested because he hired thugs to beat Sherry up, her mood plunged. She only felt relief after making sure Sherry was fine and only suffered some minor injuries. She grunted angrily and bellowed, “I’ll call a shareholder meeting right away to kick Aiden out of the company!” …The news of Aiden being arrested during a meeting because he hired thugs to beat Sherry up spread like wildfire within the company. Later in the afternoon, while Sherry and Carl were busy with the next meeting for the second project, Lisa called an emergency shareholder meeting to deal with the aftermath of the rest. In conclusion,

    Sherry knew the girl was tired. She turned the tablet off and carried the girl onto her lap. She cleared her throat, signaling to the man further away. It was a sign for him to leave. “Good night. Sleep early,” he said before he walked out of the door. When the door closed, the living room once again plunged into silence. Sherry pursed her lips and carried Caprice into the room. …After a dreamless night, Sherry woke up with Caprice and helped the girl clean up. They walked out of the room and saw John outside. “Daddy…” The girl extended her arms at her father. John carried the girl and said to Sherry, “I’ve found a Glenchester restaurant here, and they serve breakfast. Wanna go try?” Sherry frowned. She wanted to keep her distance from the man and reject his offer, but before she could, the girl agreed. With her adorable voice, the girl said, “Yay! Mommy go! Caprice go!” John looked at Caprice. Sherry’s eyes flickered. “If Caprice wants to go, let’s go.” It wa

    Sherry was forced to a swift retreat as Anne was pressing forward. She accidentally tripped on her injured leg and lost her balance, causing her to fall backward. Just when she thought she would hit the ground, a pair of strong arms held her from the back. The ferocious-looking Anne was stunned as well. “Master Stockton…” Sherry turned around and saw John. He frowned as he looked at her. “Are you alright?” Sherry sighed a breath of relief. “I’m fine.” She regained her balance and got on her feet. John let go of her and switched his attention to Anne. Anne’s eyes flickered nervously, but she regained her composure and pointed at Sherry. “Master Stockton, Sherry is not only tempting you, but she’s also seeing Carl! She’s a money-faced bitch! Don’t get fooled by her looks!” It was the morning rush hour. Many of the employees were arriving for work, and the commotion Anna caused attracted their attention. A group of people stopped walking and turned their attention to J

    Sherry said, “Thank you, Lisa. I’m fine. She didn’t touch me.” Lisa sighed a breath of relief. She added, “I’ll definitely make this right for you.” She was furious. Aiden had hired thugs to harm Sherry and got arrested for his crime, yet Anne was trying to give Sherry a tough time? Lisa was not a weak and helpless woman! Sherry pursed her lips. “It’s fine, Lisa. I’m okay.” Anne stopped Sherry in front of the office just to give her a hard time. Had John not arrived in time, Sherry would have been slapped and insulted in front of the public. It would definitely have caused a series of unhappy events. Anne was a major shareholder in the company, but she was not working there. She had Madam Sager and some other old folks’ support, so Lisa could not do anything to her either. If Lisa was correct, Anne probably came here because Ron instigated her to. Since she had no way to deal with Ron at the moment, giving Anne a hard time would be meaningless. Lisa sighed out of guilt.

    The day passed while Sherry buried herself in work. At dusk, Sherry walked out of the office and saw her white car parked beside the road. The window was wound down and Caprice popped her head out, calling her adorably, “Mommy…” The sweet expression felt warmer than the breeze. Sherry hastened her steps to the car. She got in, hugged the girl in her arms, and kissed her on the cheek. Caprice giggled as she kissed her mother back. They played around for a while before Sherry released the girl. She then switched her attention to the driver’s seat. “Why aren’t you driving?” John smiled and looked at her through the rear mirror. “I’m waiting for your order.” Sherry gulped. “Drive.” John started the car and drove, but not in the direction of her apartment. Sherry asked, “Where are you going?” He said, “Caprice wants to have something good to eat. I booked a restaurant. We’ll be there in twenty minutes.” Sherry frowned. “I’ve only booked a table. I didn’t pay for it y

    Sherry was probably counting how much she had to spend for the meal. She noticed the man’s gaze and it irritated her. “What are you looking at?” John smiled. “Nothing. I just want to look at you.” Sherry choked. She wanted to argue, but Caprice reached out to her face with her tiny hands. The girl held her collar and said, “Mommy, don’t be angry at Daddy.” Sherry was forced to swallow her grievance. She said, “Mommy isn’t angry at Daddy. I’m just teasing him.” John was left speechless, and so was Caprice. Caprice added, “Mommy, don’t tease Daddy. Daddy is scared.” Sherry said with a smile, “He’s thick-faced. He won’t be scared so easily.” Caprice pouted in confusion. Being thick-faced and cowardly had nothing in relation. Before she could figure out the question, the waiter returned with the dishes. The dishes served were mostly vegetarian, but they were decorated meticulously. Caprice’s eyes widened in astonishment. Sherry put some broccoli on the girl’s plate. T

    When they arrived at Sherry’s apartment, Caprice was already dead asleep. After Sherry got out of the car, she carried Caprice into her arms and threw a gaze at John. “You can go now.” John stood by the car and leaned against it lazily. The moonlight’s reflection shone from his glasses as he smiled bewitchingly. “Goodnight.” Sherry ignored him. She carried Caprice into the apartment without looking back. The night was quiet. After Sherry entered her apartment and turned on the living room lights, the man’s slender figure remained by the car with no intention of leaving. However, he pulled his attention away from the window and looked to his left. There was a garden on the left of the apartment, and there was a fake mountain decoration by the side. In the shadow cast by the fake mountain was a slender figure. Carl was aware that John noticed him, so he came out from the shadows. “Young Master Carl, what are you doing here?” John asked with a smile. Carl’s eyes flic

    Ron was a sly man, and Anne had the support of Madam Sager and the other old folks at home. Lisa had done a lot to reach her current position while bringing Carl up. It had not been easy for her. It was not easy to kick Ron out of the company. Carl went silent for a moment and said, “I know, but he’s cunning and we don’t have anything on him.” John chuckled. “Then, let him give you something to hold against him.” Carl narrowed his eyes. John leaned against the car with his arms crossed. He continued, “Ron Wright has a property in the suburbs, where there are a woman and a pair of twins. The woman was his secretary from five years ago.” Carl was shocked. It took him several seconds to recover and say, “How do you know about this?” John curled his lips. “I have my ways.” Carl remained shocked. He knew Ron was a playboy as well. Anne had caught him a few times fooling around, and he had been obedient ever since. He never showed any flaws in the open as well. Who would ha

    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
