With icy eyes, Keith stared coldly at Emily. A chilling sensation crawled up her spine, sending shivers down her body. For the first time, she realized that Keith was even more terrifying than Ivan.

Biting her pale lips, she slowly spoke, "Keith, have you misunderstood something. Haley and I are sisters. Even if I despise her, I could never harm her. I..."

"Mother, the fact that I have come to ask you indicates that I already know certain truths," Keith interrupted, walking down the steps. He spoke each word with emphasis. "I just want to hear the truth. Why did you commit murder, mother?"

Emily had never felt such fear before. Not even when Ivan spoke harshly to her did he fix his eyes upon her like this. How could a four-year-old child possess such overwhelming power?

Suppressing her inner dread, she spoke calmly, "Keith, it wasn't me. I never thought of hurting Haley. It was your grandfather who couldn't tolerate her. Keith, do you know that Haley forced your grandfather to give

    "Mother, I don't want your hands stained with guilty blood, which is why I said those words to you," Keith tightly pursed his thin lips. "I'm sorry, I spoke too harshly. Please don't take it to heart."Emily breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid Keith would ask her to leave. Luckily, this little bastard didn't dare. She calmed herself and spoke softly, "Rest assured, I won't lay a finger on Haley anymore."Keith had found out about her sending someone to deal with Haley today, which meant someone from the Winston family was keeping an eye on her. She couldn't personally give orders for any more of these image-tarnishing things; otherwise, Keith's attitude towards her would become worse."Why are you here again!" Owen came downstairs from the second floor and his entire face was filled with displeasure as soon as he saw Emily. Her emotions, which had just calmed down, were once again provoked. But she knew she had lost control once, and she couldn't lose control a second time. Sh

    Owen lifted his chin, and his dark eyes gleamed with a touch of arrogance. He snorted lightly, "If Daddy doesn't want to marry Haley, then when I grow up, I'll marry her myself. I just want to be with Haley every day."Keith's face turned very ugly. He didn't want to talk about these things with Owen, but if he didn't, he was afraid Owen would get even more deeply involved.He spoke slowly, "Do you know that Mother has always had a sister?"Owen frowned unhappily, "Why are you telling me about that woman? Whether she has siblings or not has nothing to do with me. I don't know, and I don't care. Don't mention her to me.""This actually does concern you. Mother has a half-sister with the same father, and her name is Haley." Keith threw a news article at Owen, which he found on his phone. "Haley, who died four years ago, has come back to take revenge on the DeRoss family, on Mother. And you have become Haley's best tool for revenge on Mother."Owen quickly read the news, disbelief fillin

    Haley's head was still a little dizzy. After explaining the situation to the Winston Group, she was ready to call Thomas. Given her current condition, she probably couldn't go to preschool for the time being, so she had to ask Thomas to pick up the child. Before she could make the call, her phone rang again."Ms. DeRoss, hello. I'm the secretary of the Winston Group. May I ask if something happened this afternoon?"Haley pressed her forehead and said, "I'm feeling a bit unwell, currently getting an infusion at the hospital. I apologize.""Well, take good care and we can talk about cooperation when you've recovered." The secretary politely hung up the phone and was about to turn around to knock on the CEO's office door when she saw Ivan standing behind her.She was startled and quickly reported, "Mr. Winston, Ms. DeRoss is at the hospital. She probably won't make it today."Ivan nodded and walked toward the elevator. The secretary, with wide eyes, watched him leave. Daringly, he chase

    Todd clenched his fists, his young face showing an expression of frustration beyond his years.He was just useless, unable to protect Mom, if only he could grow up faster! He pursed his lips and walked towards the ward, step by step. But suddenly, he froze. The man walking in front of him, wasn't that Ivan? What was this man doing in the hospital? And it seemed like he was heading towards Mom's ward. Is he here specifically to visit Mom? When did Mom and this man become so close?Ivan took long strides, and walked to the entrance of Haley's room, in just a few steps. He hadn't thought too much about coming here, but when he stood at the entrance of the room, he suddenly felt a bit inexplicable. He had no relationship with this woman at all, and coming to visit her so abruptly, what would others think? Most importantly, he had no idea why he came here in the first place.But since he had come, it wasn't his style to run away halfway. He was about to knock on the door when he noticed t

    This kind of thing could be resolved with just a phone call. Is this man so free that he specifically came to the hospital for this?"On the way." Ivan's voice was cold, and his face was full of displeasure.Haley pursed her lips. She said lightly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Winston. I had a situation this afternoon, so I couldn't make it to the appointment on time."Ivan looked her up and down and found her in good spirits. It seemed that nothing major had happened. While Ivan was assessing Haley, Thomas was also assessing him. He had known Haley for four years and knew better, than Haley herself, how many men had pursued her. Once a male appeared by Haley's side, there was an 80% chance that he was chasing after her.He snorted coldly, "People who want to discuss cooperation with Haley are lined up all the way to the Atlantic Ocean. Who do you think you are? How dare you question my Haley for breaking the appointment? If she wants to cancel, she can. It's her right. Do you have the qualificat

    Todd cursed under his breath. Angela had a special connection with Ivan, and every time she saw him, she was drawn to him automatically. He hurriedly caught up, grabbing Angela's arm."Angela, don't wander around. Mommy will worry. She's sick now, and if she worries about you, she won't get better."Angela finally stopped running. She stood by the railing in the hospital corridor, looking down until Ivan's figure disappeared, and only then did she avert her gaze. Todd lowered his eyelids, his hands clenched into tight fists.Ivan was very likely their father. But this man impregnated two women at the same time, which clearly showed he wasn't a qualified father. If Angela accepted Ivan as her father, she would likely be hurt again.He didn't want Mommy to get hurt, and he didn't want Angela to get hurt either. He was a man, and he would grow up quickly. He would shoulder the responsibility for this family.Haley felt much better after the IV, but her head still felt fuzzy. As a result,

    After changing her outfit at home, she drove to the DeRoss Group. It was her first visit since returning to the country. The DeRoss Group building stood firm as it did five years ago, but now it had been renovated with blue glass walls that reflected the blue sky and clouds, giving it a grand and imposing appearance.Haley walked in calmly. As soon as she appeared in the lobby, she attracted the attention of countless people."Isn't that Haley? Why is she here at the company?""Didn't the news say she became the third largest shareholder of the DeRoss Group? There's a shareholders' meeting today, so of course she has to come.""She hasn't shown up at the company for four or five years. She probably has no idea about the company's operations and direction.""What do you know? She's here to assert her authority. As for running the company, leave it to the professionals. She doesn't need to understand those things.""I feel like there will be a power struggle within the DeRoss Group.""I

    "Even if I leave, it won't change the fact that the DeRoss Group was founded by my mother." Haley's light and airy tone sharply contrasted with Mr. DeRoss's fury.The secretaries in the corridor were too scared to make a sound, the air heavy with tension and friction.Haley took a step forward, her cold eyes showing a slight ripple. "Father, can't you tolerate me like this?"Mr. DeRoss gritted his teeth. "Since you set that fire four years ago, I haven't considered you my daughter.""What if I told you that I didn't start that fire?""Even if it wasn't you, it still happened because of you," Mr. DeRoss sneered with his eyes filled with sinister intent. "You shouldn't have come back alive.""Very well, I understand." Haley sneered.At this point, the relationship between father and daughter had reached its limit, and any semblance of parental love had vanished. Then, as for her, there was no need to worry about anything anymore. "Dad, Haley, please stop arguing." Emily hurriedly arriv

    After a thorough read, she folded the document and spoke up, her voice indifferent, "Kid, who drafted this contract?""Our young master did," replied Russell, “Ms. DeRoss, if everything looks fine to you, the contract will take effect once you sign it."Haley chuckled. She was striking, exuding a bewitching charm.And yet, within the depths of her clear eyes, there was a peculiar blend of innocence and mystery.Keith felt his defenses soften and his detachment give way when he saw her smile. It was as if a hole had been poked through his armor of indifference.Realizing too late that he had been staring at Haley for a while, frustration surged within him.This woman must have used that same smile to ensnare Dad and confuse Owen..."I see a problem," she said, her smile vanishing.She leaned forward, a sense of authority emanating from her.Looking Keith straight in the eye, her lips twisted into a disdainful curve, "You should be in school at your age, not out here trying to show off.

    Transmedia Tech, an internet media company.Two years ago, there were rumors of its bankruptcy, and after being acquired, it suddenly came back to life and became a leading player in the internet industry.However, there is not much information about this company on the internet.Haley glanced at Transmedia Tech's profile and said lightly, "What time did they make an appointment?""Half past two, at Pennie Coffee."After finishing her work in the morning, Haley drove straight to Pennie Coffee.She arrived ten minutes early, ordered a cup of coffee, and began to read the information on the internet.She searched for the company again, but she still couldn't find much info, and even the investor info behind it had been removed.It can be seen that this company has a lot of connections.She just didn’t know why this company would take a fancy to her newly opened studio.Haley waited for about five minutes before she heard footsteps outside the private room.She straightened her collar an

    Keith thought that Haley had also planned to gain the trust of the entire Winston family through Owen. This woman's quite a schemer. Keith knew he had to be cautious......Haley picked up the kids and went home. When she was cooking dinner, she received a video call from Owen."Haley, why didn't you come to see me?" Owen's voice was still weak, "I'm so bored here in the hospital all alone. Could you come keep me company? I want to hear stories..."Haley shook the ladle in her hand, "It's too late today; I'll come see you tomorrow and bring you some cookies I've baked.""You're the best, Haley!" Owen's enthusiasm was palpable.Haley’s lips curled into a smile, "Get some rest now, and don't stay up too late, okay?""How about a goodnight kiss, then?" Owen puckered his lips towards the phone screen, a bandage still wrapped around his head, looking both pitiful and comically adorable.Laughing, Haley pressed a kiss to her phone screen and then ended the call.Carrying the freshly stewed

    "The timing is too perfect, isn't it?" Keith said slowly, "Owen got in a car accident, and Haley just happened to be there and then saved him by donating her blood to him. What a coincidence!"His voice was deep and raspy, unlike a four-year-old boy.Ivan's eyes narrowed, "You think Haley staged the accident?""She had a motive," Keith pressed his lips together firmly and continued, "Surely you're aware of the bad blood between Mom and Haley...""It wasn't her," Ivan stated flatly.He had already been briefed on the accident. It was indeed premeditated. Someone had the audacity to target his son. But that someone couldn't possibly be Haley."Dad, are you so certain it isn't this woman when the investigation is still ongoing?" Keith's voice chilled, "What if it turns out to actually be Haley?""She wouldn't hurt Owen," Ivan looked at him with conviction. "She saved your brother; you shouldn't suspect her."Darkness crept into Keith's eyes.His moth

    Taking a deep breath, he said, "Don't worry, Mom, I'll have someone look into it. I won't let anyone hurt Owen."After she voluntarily donated blood to save Owen, it's unlikely she'd attempt anything against him again anytime soon..." Emily's voice was husky and choked with emotion. "Now that she's gained your dad's trust, I’m sure she'll make her move... Keith, I’m really scared she’ll hurt you or Owen. I’d rather she came after me...""It won't happen."Keith ended the phone call.He turned to his assistant, Russell, and said coolly, “Check out that car accident near the DeRoss Group building. See what that was all about.”Russell nodded, “Will do, Mr. Winston.”He pulled out his phone and started making calls...Keith instructed his driver, "To the hospital."As the car glided smoothly down the road, they hadn't even reached the hospital when Russell received a call from the traffic police.The majority of the time, Maple Street is congested, w

    Keith had been involved in the family business since the age of three.The company under his operation, Transmedia Tech, was a subsidiary that the Winston Group had planned to divest from two years ago.He took over the day before its planned bankruptcy.Now, after a year of shrewd management, Transmedia had become one of the top three most profitable subsidiaries of Winston Group.Keith, having just finished a meeting, felt a nagging unrest.He was usually a calm person, but his current anxiety exposed a vulnerability reflective of a four-year-old child."Young Master, you've pretty much wrapped up all your work for today. Perhaps you should head back and rest?" suggested his young assistant, Russell, with due respect.Keith shook his head.He sensed discomfort.Had something happened to Owen?He was about to reach for his phone to call Alfred when his phone began to vibrate.He glanced at it. The incoming call was from his mother.Ti

    It seemed he didn't really mind the idea of marrying this woman...Haley, with her acute senses, caught Ivan's stare and quickly changed the subject.Her eyes shifted to Owen and she spoke with authoritative firmness, “It might not hurt now, but once the anesthesia wears off, you’re going to be in tears from the pain. You’ll understand then just how terrifying a car accident can be! Owen, if you ever want to see me again, just give me a call. I'll come pick you up myself. If you dare sneak out like you did today, I won't come to see you ever again!”Her face stern, she emphasized each word, her tone leaving no room for protest.Tears pooled in Owen's eyes as he looked at Haley with a plaintive expression, “I won’t ever do it again, Haley... I just missed you too much, I couldn't help myself. I just wanted you to hug and kiss me...”His big eyes were brimming with sorrow, making him look like a forlorn puppy.Haley's heart softened, and she bent down to plant

    Chapter 181Ivan took a seat on the other side of the bed.He stated calmly, "Alfred, get some sports drinks, please."Alfred promptly went to carry out the request.In the hospital room, aside from the slumbering Owen, only the two of them remained, surrounded by the sterile scent of disinfectant.With a muted voice, Ivan said, "Thank you for this. Whatever you need, just tell me.""I have a soft spot for Owen. I was more than willing to save him, and…" Haley's voice faltered, a slight bitterness on her tongue, "he must have snuck out to find me. That's how he got into an accident..."Her voice trailed off, her gaze lowered, shielding all emotions.Ivan paused before saying, "He's really fond of you."A gentle smile curled on Haley's lips.Looking at Owen resting in the hospital bed, she couldn't help but reach out and gently touch his face. She felt an immediate warmth towards him when she first saw him at the airport. Owen kept coming back

    His opened his mouth, about to speak, but his phone began to vibrate in his palm, displaying Alfred's name.The sight of Alfred's name sent a sharp pain through Ivan's heart.Whenever Alfred reached out, it was always a matter of urgency.With Owen in surgery and Alfred calling, could it mean…The typically composed man's fingers trembled, requiring two attempts to tap the answer button."Sir, Owen's going to be alright!" Alfred exclaimed, choked with joy, "The surgery's nearly finished and doctors say he should wake up by tonight if all goes well!"Ivan felt a great relief.He walked briskly towards the hospital, concurrently asking, "How was the blood resolved?"He'd made calls, but a resolution couldn't have come this fast."Sir, you might not know yet, but Miss DeRoss, Owen's aunt Haley — she's got the negative blood type!" Alfred rushed out his words, "When Owen had his accident, Haley was there, she brought him to the hospital, and she volun
