Shirley got back to her room, feeling mentally exhausted after the conversation with Stanford!

Gosh, she had to summon all her strength just to hold back Stanford's forcefulness.

People who grew up with Keith aren't easily fooled, right?

So, she had to show enough sincerity and persuasion to try to bring Stanford from being an enemy to a neutral stance.

After all, there were always people looking at her with such hateful eyes, which sent shivers down her spine!

Upon entering her room, Shirley noticed a recipe book lying on the table.

How strange, who left it here?

Could it be Tina and her friends?

Without much thought, Shirley picked up the book and flipped through it; it contained some simple and easy-to-learn recipes, with several of them circled in red pen.

Were these the dishes chosen by Tina and her friends? Shirley focused on the circled recipes; they did seem quite manageable, just follow the instructions step by step.

As she reached the end, she noticed a line of strong, bold

    The voice of Mrs. Nelson continued on the phone, "Son, if Shirley really is a descendant of the Moore family, Mom won't stand in the way of you two being together anymore! Even though the Moore family might not be as wealthy, I found out in State Y that the Moore family's status is quite high. She might just about be a match with you! As long as you can get Shirley to return to the Moore family and acknowledge her ancestry, Mom won't oppose your marriage anymore! But, you must strive to gain more support as soon as possible! Otherwise, once that little bastard returns, your grandma will definitely arrange for him to join the board of directors. If he gets on the board, it's the biggest threat to us! Your dad is missing now, but once he comes back, he also has inheritance rights.""Even though you're the president of the Nelson Family Group now, even though you hold most of the shares, just a tiny leak from your grandma's fingers would be enough to provide that little bastard with a li

    Grandma Nelson was extremely fast, probably to show Keith her sincerity.That evening, a helicopter was sent directly from the Nelson family mansion and landed on the cruise ship's deck. Grandma Nelson's assistant personally came and brought documents for Shirley to sign.As Shirley signed, her mind was still foggy.Did she really... suddenly become rich?And with this much money?It all felt so surreal!Grandma Nelson's assistant smiled at Shirley and said, "Mrs. Keith, don't stay out too long. Grandma is very concerned about you!""Yes, please tell Grandma that I'll be home in a couple of days," Shirley replied with a smile. "Thank you so much for flying all this way.""It's okay. Grandma's orders. I had to come!" The assistant nodded and bid Shirley farewell. "Your documents are officially effective now. From now on, you're a member of the board of directors. Goodbye."Shirley watched as the helicopter disappeared into the sea again, unable to come to her senses for a long time."S

    The third day finally arrived.Shirley got up early, changed into comfortable clothes and shoes with everyone else, and made all the necessary preparations to shine in today's competition!Oh haha...Even though she still hadn't fully processed it, she had become a wealthy person.But she already knew that even if she lost the competition today, she could still buy Tina a Porsche!All the family members put on their chef uniforms and lined up on both sides, ready to face off.Anna directed everyone to check all the ingredients and condiments, and finally, confidently took her position as head chef.At this time, someone from the other family excitedly shouted, "I heard the captain will personally participate in the judging! Have you seen the first and second mates? Handsome! But the captain is even more handsome! Has anyone seen the captain's silhouette? Just a silhouette can make people swoon. I'm so curious about what the captain looks like! I can't wait! I heard the captain will pe

    Everyone nervously watched the row of judges with various skin tones on the judging platform.Of course, the most eye-catching was the captain sitting in the middle, still exuding infinite male charm despite wearing a mask.When it was Shirley's turn, she walked up with the chocolate cake.Honestly, with this appearance—probably no one would buy it.These chefs were all picked from the world's top six-star chefs.At a glance, it was clear that Shirley's cake was... not great...However, as Shirley walked up, the captain spoke up: "Put this cake here with me, I'll be the judge."Shirley hesitated for a moment but obediently placed the cake in front of him.Shirley also knew her cake wasn't great.So she didn't dare to show off her cooking skills in front of the chefs.Everyone else divided the food into dozens of portions and delivered them to each judge.Only Shirley's was placed in front of the captain alone.The captain reached out and delicately cut a piece, put it on a plate, and

    Keith continued to look at Shirley, full of pleading, and said, "Shirley, I've persuaded my mom. She won't stand in our way anymore! Shirley, come back, come back to me, let me protect you, okay? Now, no one can harm you anymore! No one can take you away from me! Shirley, I really can't be without you... as wise as you are, as foolish as I am. I can't just let you go like this, I can't..."Shirley's eyes welled up with tears once again."Last night's events, were they all you doing?" Shirley asked, "What about the five percent of the stocks—""Those stocks were given to you by Grandma as the chairwoman, and you deserve them. No one in the company dares to question the legitimacy of those stocks! Not even my mom!" Keith said firmly, "Those stocks are one of the foundations you rely on to stand firm, and the other foundation is me! As long as I'm still the heir of the Nelson Family Group, as long as I'm still Keith Nelson, then no one can harm you!""What about Lillian..." Shirley knew

    Keith had already prepared thick coats and helped Shirley put them on.Since they decided to return to T City as soon as possible, Keith called three planes. One was for Anna and Herman to go back, one was for Stanford and Lillian, and then he took Shirley, Camille, and Tina back to T City together.The others would disperse after the ship returned.Shirley knew that everything had changed this time.But, Shirley still hadn't expected the huge impact this change would bring.As soon as they got off the plane, Shirley couldn't help but shiver and said, "Wow, it's already this cold at City T.""Yeah, the weather changed these few days," Keith supported Shirley and answered, "The heating at home is already on full blast, so you won't be cold once we're inside.""Do we need to go to Grandma's first?" Shirley looked up at him."No need," Keith replied dominantly, "I've already told Grandma we're back. You go get a full check-up first! Can you trust the doctors outside for a proper check-up

    "To grow up quickly, I did many, many things. Many things, even now, I can't mention to you. But, Shirley, now I'm strong enough. No one can harm me anymore, and no one will be able to harm you either!" Keith gently held Shirley's fingers. "When Albert returns to the Nelson family, Grandma will give him some shares and money. You are the eldest sister-in-law, your position is delicate, so many people will be watching your behavior. Because your behavior represents my attitude."Shirley nodded.But this standard was difficult to grasp!Albert was the legitimate son vying for power in the Nelson family, and herself, the wife of the heir of the Nelson family, it was inappropriate to be too enthusiastic or too indifferent towards a half-brother!"You telling me these things so seriously makes me happy, it shows you don't see me as an outsider." Shirley held Keith's hand back and said seriously, "Don't worry, I won't let you down! I will also protect the wealth of the Nelson family for you

    Shirley frowned. "Mom, isn't this none of my business? According to Keith, Grandma might assign a subsidiary to Albert to manage. Albert won't be able to meddle with the headquarters. Moreover, both the headquarters and the subsidiary belong to Keith. Mom, what's there to worry about? Instead of worrying about Albert, shouldn't you be worried about how to talk to Grandma and stop Helen from entering the Nelson family genealogy? It's a sure thing that Albert will enter the family genealogy, but if Helen gets on it, then she'll be on equal footing with you, Mom!""You vile woman!" Mrs. Nelson angrily exclaimed, her face contorting almost ruining all her efforts to look refined.Shirley stood there, not responding."Do you have any ideas?" Mrs. Nelson suddenly looked up at Shirley.Shirley shook her head and said, "Now Grandma is the one in charge of the Nelson family. Helen's breakthrough also lies with Grandma. What ideas could I possibly have?""But you're the eldest grandson's wife,

    Keith returned the Moore family, which he had previously acquired, back to them intact. He signed an agreement with Old Mrs. Moore, stating that the Nelson Family Group would annually provide free financial support to all industries under the Moore family and their research institute in Indonesia.At the same time, Keith ramped up collaboration with the Davis Family Group to compensate for the assistance and sacrifices their ancestors had made for the Moore family.Finally, Old Mrs. Moore let go of her prejudices and the so-called ancestral rule, stopped forcing Shirley to marry Rupert, and accepted Keith as her grandson-in-law.Keith, full of vigor, led Shirley back to the room, eager to explain everything to her.But before Keith could speak, Shirley's face suddenly turned pale, and she collapsed against Keith.Keith's words were swallowed up instantly."Shirley, what's wrong?"

    After stomping out the cigarette butt on the floor, Lillian picked up the cup intending to take a sip, only to find it empty.Anxiously, she put the cup down and paced around the room.This shabby motel was tucked away in a corner of the old town, notorious for its crime and violence.Lillian really didn't want to be here, but she couldn't think of a better option for hiding out.The big hotels required ID registration, and she didn't want to risk being recognized, especially looking as disheveled as she did, with her scruffy appearance.She couldn't even bear to see herself like this, let alone others.This morning, while washing her face, she felt a lump in her throat, a sign that it might protrude again.This discovery made her extremely uneasy.In order to expedite the surgery and achieve the desired effect, she opted for a conservative procedure, leaving part of the Adam's apple intact.In other words, if her testosterone levels rose again, surpassing the estrogen in her body, sh

    Shirley saw the flowers Simon had sent her blooming beautifully, and her mind wandered to the scene of Susan meeting Simon.Then, Shirley couldn't help but sigh.These days, Simon had been quite active in this circle, reminding everyone of Mr. Simon's presence.Hopefully, he could recover smoothly from Susan's death blow soon.Lost in thought, Shirley heard the doorbell ring.Naturally, someone went to open it, while Shirley stayed put.Lately, she noticed she was becoming lazier—moving only when necessary.Soon, Janet came over with a box, smiling as she said to Shirley, "This is from the Smith family, probably more flowers from Mr. Simon."These days, Simon had been sending over many flowers from his greenhouse.Thankfully, they had a dedicated gardener to tend to them, and a large enough greenhouse to store them. Otherwise, there wouldn't be enough space for all these flowers.You see, even a random potted flower would cost tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars!These were all S

    Well, Lillian would if she could!She felt all numb now!She could only look at Evan with pleading eyes, hoping he would spare her considering she had given him her first time.Sure enough, Evan caught Lillian's plea and immediately said, "Hannah, that's enough. You must be tired from all the hitting, be careful of the baby in your stomach."Hannah stopped immediately as Evan spoke.Shirley and Tina were once again speechless in shock.What a nice way Hannah turned things around!Indeed, Hannah must have been tired; hitting someone was physically exhausting!Hannah pointed at Lillian, accusingly saying, "You heartless creature, I considered you my friend, and you slept with my husband!"Shirley touched her nose; why did that line sound so familiar?Despite Lillian being physically numb, her mouth could still talk. However, the voice sounded oddly off."Hannah, do you think I don't know how you got pregnant?" Lillian's face was swollen from Hannah's hits, and coupled with her hoarse vo

    Keith nodded, "You do understand my style and methods. Indeed, anyone who dares to target the Nelson family won't survive more than three days. I spared your life for a reason. You haven't disappointed me; you've smoothly resolved the trouble I wanted to get rid of."Lillian was trembling even more violently, "You...you...""Lillian, you've got some nerve! You actually wanted to lay a finger on the Nelson family's influence in Europe. Should I praise your bravery, or mock your stupidity?" Keith sighed lightly, "You thought getting enough shares would let you meddle in Europe? That's incredibly amusing!"Lillian glared fiercely at Keith, her voice becoming even hoarser, lacking the sweetness and clarity it once had. Instead, it sounded like a cracked drum, extremely grating."If you know everything, then do what you will with me!" Lillian gritted her teeth.Despite her words, her eyes kept drifting towards the door, as if waiting for something.Suddenly, Keith chuckled softly."Why wou

    Lillian heard Monica's words and burst out laughing without reservation!"I'm talking nonsense? Monica, can you swear you haven't fallen for Simon?" A strange flush suddenly rose on Lillian's face, letting the cold wind blow against her, but she felt nothing, turning to look at Monica like this. "Yeah, with this scandal, how could you possibly keep it under wraps? You love Simon so much, you went as far as warning Susan, stirring up trouble with Shirley. But no matter how you cover it up, do you think everyone is a fool?"Monica recoiled in fear, frantically trying to explain, "It's just sibling affection...""Enough, save those lies to deceive yourself, stop pretending in front of me." Lillian continued pressing on: "But, I wonder, how would Simon feel if he knew his adoring little sister, who's been in love with him for over a decade, what would be his state of mind?"Monica finally panicked, reaching out to cover Lillian's mouth, but Lillian slapped Monica's hand away, looking at M

    Lillian's words caused the expressions of those around her to subtly change towards Albert.Many people present knew of Albert's background.Despite various disdain towards Mr. Albert, he was still connected to the Nelson family, an entity not to be crossed.Even if Lillian did not like Albert, she dared not openly confront him.Evan, grinning, approached Shirley, "Oh oh, your second brother was hit, as his sister-in-law, are you really going to remain indifferent?""Let's put aside the question of whether I am his sister-in-law, as the host of today's banquet, are you truly going to stay indifferent in the face of such a drama?" Shirley countered Evan.As Evan hesitated about whether to help, a commotion erupted at the entrance.Shirley followed the crowd's gaze. At the villa's entrance, a Rolls-Royce spun elegantly and parked perfectly.A group of well-trained bodyguards formed two rows, the car door opened, and an impeccably dressed figure leisurely got out.Shirley was speechless

    Following Evan's gaze, Shirley turned around and saw Lillian in a white fur coat, wearing a red form-fitting dress underneath.Lillian walked in with a man in his forties on her arm."Lillian changes her man every time she appears," Tina remarked, crossing her arms. "Evan, did you invite her?"Hearing Tina's disdainful tone, Evan quickly replied, "Come on, why would I invite her? She's just a minor character, and doesn't have the qualifications. But the man next to her might be a potential investor tonight. Shirley, do you remember him?"Shirley looked puzzled at Evan, "Why should I remember him?"Evan smirked mischievously, "Because he's Director Alice's ex-husband!""Pfft..." Shirley and Tina both sprayed out the juice in their mouths!Shirley looked incredulous, "No way? Is Director Alice coming tonight as well?"Evan laughed more maliciously, "Yep, Director Alice will be here too! I wonder what it would be like for her to see her ex-husband attending this party with her actresses.
