The middle-aged man and the others who crowded around the trio fell silent. It seemed like they had formed the connection and understood who was behind all that had gone down. They began pleading even more fervently this time, “Please, Master Stockton, Mrs. Stockton, Miss Stockton, you must do something for us! Words can’t express how apologetic we are!”

"Please have mercy on us, we weren't even there when everything happened! We have already severely punished our children for their nasty behavior!”

"Please give us at least another chance. I’ve worked my entire life to build everything I have today. You can’t ruin me just because of something I wasn’t a part of! Please!" The man who said this dropped to his knees.

Having never seen such a display before, Caprice faltered backward.

More students were crowded around now, drawn by the commotion. At one point, Caprice heard Lana's voice.

"Huh? Isn't that Caprice? What happened over here?”

Caprice frowned as she addressed th

    John and Sherry returned to the car. Caprice heaved a sigh of relief. "Caprice, it looks like you’re going to have to stick with us for a bit longer,” Sherry said while softly brushing Caprice’s hair. Caprice understood the implications as well. Surrounded by a boisterous crowd, some of the students even had their phones out to take pictures and videos of what went down. John was the wealthiest man in Glanchester and was also a public figure, so it was not hard for them to figure out his identity. Many of them must have known who he was already, so news of this was going to spread like wildfire on the campus. Besides, with all these people by the entrance, there was no way she could enter without being pestered. It was a wise choice to stick with her parents for now. Ding! Suddenly, Sherry's phone rang. Caprice and John darted a curious glance in her direction. Sherry was taken aback. “Syl? Why is she calling me at this time?" She promptly answered t

    "Caprice has been the daughter of the richest family in Glanchester this entire time?!” Kenneth expressed in disbelief. Jonathan commented uncertainly, “It does seem that way, doesn’t it?” Moses pursed his lips and stayed silent. With the dramatic collapse of VV Entertainment and everything that transpired overnight, they heard some rumors going around. Word was that Heather Manson had spelled her family’s demise by pissing off the Stocktons when she picked on their daughter. Some of Heather's friends were involved as well, and their families ended up no better for it. One of the people who begged for Caprice’s forgiveness just now was someone Moses and Kenneth had worked with briefly. Based on what they knew, this person managed to find out that Caprice was enrolled in Sparkrow University and had made the trip here to beg for forgiveness in person. This was the reason they were here at all. They wanted to see for themselves just who the supposed daughter of the ri

    Caprice told her parents everything, "Mom, Dad, my friends told me that everyone at university is talking about me right now. It looks like they know that you two are my parents now.” Sherry smiled. "It's okay, your Aunt Sylvia has already contacted the university. They are going to deal with it. These posts are going to be taken down in no time.” John chimed in, "You don’t have to feel ashamed of being our daughter. It doesn’t matter that they know now.” Caprice pouted. "Okay." It was true that it was no big deal at the end of the day. Still, she had to explain things to Lana and Freya. She turned on her phone again and swiped to their group chat. She sent an emoji to test the waters. Lana was the first to reply. She had always been quick to anger and had reacted by sending a sticker of an angry stickman. Caprice replied with an emoji awkward smile. Then, it was Freya who joined in the conversation. “Caprice, don’t you have anything to tell us?” Caprice repl

    Freya, Lana, and Piper gladly accepted her invitation. After they wrapped up their conversation, Caprice logged on to the campus forum. She wanted to see how the situation was developing. To her surprise, she was unable to access the forum. A message popped up that said the system was currently undergoing maintenance. Meanwhile, she received a text Piper forwarded to her. Since she was one of the committees of one of the social clubs at the university, she had received a notice the university officials issued to all the committee members. The forwarded message read: “What happened this afternoon outside the dormitory this afternoon is a matter of privacy. I hope the students will respect the privacy of the involved student and not spread the information online. Please do your part in passing this message on to your friends.” Caprice heaved a sigh of relief. There was no chance they could hope to stop the rumors from circulating on the campus, but knowing that it was n

    Caprice eyed him darkly without a word. She pressed both her palms against Liam and shoved him away with all her strength. Then, she began stomping away with her cheeks puffed up. She had barely taken a step when she felt a large hand seizing her from behind. Within a second, she was pulled back into Liam’s arms. His long, slender arms bound themselves around her body like a chain, so there was no way she could wring herself free. With that, he lowered himself and planted a kiss on her lips. Caprice opened her eyes after the kiss, there was a restlessness rising inside her. Just like that, her grumpiness had left her completely, It took a while before Liam willingly let go of her, but his face, handsome as always, was still mere inches from hers. He locked his dark eyes on her, eyes as sharp as that of a hawk’s. He said firmly, “Next Saturday is the day you will finally become my fiancée.” Caprice felt her face slowly grow hot. She buried her face to hide her em

    Freya seemed like she was going to object when Piper stepped in. “Freya, let Caprice show us around if she wants. This place is huge, and there have to be a lot of interesting spots that only she knows about. It’s been a long time since I last came here, and I want to check the place out.” Freya smiled and obliged, "Okay." Lana cautiously took out her phone and asked, “Can I take pictures?” Caprice smiled. “If you’d like.” … After a short drive, they arrived at the house at last. Caprice led them into her courtyard. Madam Stockton must have heard them arriving as she had one of the housemaids walk her outside to greet them. "Caprice!" the old lady cried out shrilly. "Grandma!" Caprice chirped after her, then she ran up to her to give her a big hug. Piper, Freya, and Lana approached and greeted Madam Stockton politely. Madam Stockton was a wonderful host, and she quickly invited them inside. With that, everyone stepped into the living room. Madam S

    He had barely finished his sentence when Flint swiftly drew away his hands from Caprice’s shoulder. He held his hands inches away from his face to admire them while expressing sourly, “What do you mean stinky hands? These hands are beautiful.” Liam ignored him. Flint held his hands in front of Caprice. “Take a look, Caprice. Do these hands look beautiful to you or what?” Smack! Liam smacked his hand away without mercy. Flint groaned from the pain. Caprice broke out into a chuckle, amused by the shrill cry of Flint. Isabel showed up as well and joked. “Flint, you better watch out. Caprice is going to be our sister-in-law soon enough. If you step on her toes, I don’t think I can save you from Liam breaking your legs.” Flint scoffed. "I have long legs, he won’t get me.” Upon saying that, he playfully grabbed Liam's shoulder before scuttling away toward Sylvia and Odell to seek their protection. Liam looked on silently. He wore a look of disdain as if th

    It was a day with dark clouds overcast in the sky above. An engagement ceremony was happening on this fateful day. By the time Isabel had rushed over after receiving news of the engagement, the main characters of the night were in the middle of exchanging their engagement rings, witnessed by their relatives and friends. Even from a distance, she could recognize the young man in a dazzling white suit. "Decker!” She let out a tremendous shout with everything she had in her. She ran onto the red carpet and tried to stop the man on stage from putting on the ring. A thick silence fell over the scene. Everyone turned to look at the brazen woman who had intruded on the ceremony. Decker, who was facing his fiancée with the brightest smile ever seen, turned around and regarded Isabel with a look of shock. His expression was then quickly masked over with stark indifference. As if Isabel was a stranger to him. The way he looked at Isabel made her heart throb, but more so t

    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
