Lillian slightly shifted her face to dodge the cards thrown by Monica.

She didn't move but licked the cut on her lip left by a flying card, her eyes turning more malicious.

"Miss Monica, are you feeling embarrassed? But what if I say I can find a way for Mr. Simon to give up on Shirley? Will you be willing to work with me then?"

Monica's chest heaved heavily, her face turning purple, her eyes fixed on Lillian.

The air between the two instantly turned tense.

Neither spoke again.

After about ten minutes, Monica finally relented, "What do you have in mind?"

Lillian smirked slightly, knowing she had succeeded!

Monica, who had been pampered by the Smith family, appeared innocent and cheerful outwardly, but deep down, she was ruthless and more capable than her.

With Monica's intervention, Shirley might be in deep trouble…

And no one would blame her in the end…

"Mrs. Nelson has gone back to the Nelson family, naturally visiting her mother's family. When Shirley goes along as the daughter-in-

    Shirley went back to the Nelson family mansion with Keith.As soon as Shirley got out of the car, someone quickly handed her a thick cloak to wrap around her.Looking at the weather, Shirley smiled and said, "Looks like the first snow of the year is not far off."Keith grinned and held Shirley's hand, saying affectionately, "Do you like snow? After you give birth to the child, I'll take you to the icy world up north.""Alright," Shirley's eyes lit up as she looked at Keith, "You better not go back on your word then.""I wouldn't dare," Keith playfully tapped Shirley's nose, "My dear wife."Grandma Nelson heard that Shirley and Keith had arrived at the doorstep, and she welcomed them directly. "You finally made it. Come on in, come sit over here by grandma."It seemed that Shirley's perfect health genes had been passed down to the child.The doctor even privately told Old Mrs. Nelson that the child's development was not just good, but exceptionally good. Every data point was almost per

    Grandma Nelson felt a surge of emotions in her chest.She knew Albert's abilities very well.All he did all day besides eating and drinking was fooling around, and now he wanted to join the headquarters? Keith spoke directly, saying a string of German words, "What are you going to do at the headquarters? What position will satisfy your desires? Are you going to be the CEO? Or the president? Or the chairman?"Everyone else at the table understood, except for Albert who stared at Keith like a fool, "Big brother, what are you saying? I didn't understand a word. Can't you speak English? You know I am terrible at foreign languages."Shirley couldn't help but stifle a laugh. She lightly wiped the corner of her mouth with her handkerchief, concealing her smile.Keith's eyes had a hint of sarcasm, "The headquarters is filled with talented professionals with international experience from multiple countries. The daily language used is Spanish, French, German, and Japanese. If you can't even u

    Monica sat on the side, watching her parents chat so happily with Shirley, which only made her more frustrated.What's so great about that Shirley anyway?Why are Mom and Dad so fond of her too?Just because she has a face identical to Susan's, she really thinks she's Miss Susan?"Dad, Mom, Aunt, I suddenly feel a bit tired, I'm going to my room to rest," Monica said before storming off.Mrs. Nelson glanced at Monica's retreating figure, then turned to her brother and sister-in-law after Monica had left, saying, "Monica is in her twenties now, right? She doesn't have a boyfriend, does she? Is she just being too picky about suitors?"Mrs. Smith exchanged a glance with Mr. Smith, wearing a forced expression on her face.Mrs. Smith said, "Don't even mention it, this child's mind... really hard to understand. We've arranged several blind dates for her, but she hasn't gone to a single one. She's always clinging to her brother and causing trouble these days. Shirley, for your aunt's sake, d

    After lunch, Shirley, accompanied by her assistant, planned to retreat to her room for some rest, avoiding the unreasonable Miss Monica.However, before she could take a few steps, she was intercepted by someone holding a food tray, looking anxious and clutching her stomach.She pleaded, "Excuse me, Mrs. Keith, could you please take this food to Miss Monica on your way? My stomach suddenly hurts... Miss Monica's room is just across from the guest rooms, Mrs. Keith, please help... If I don't deliver this in time, Miss Monica will surely be furious and could fire me..."Seeing the pleading look in her eyes, although Shirley didn't want to deal with Monica... Well, it was a small favor, so Shirley nodded and motioned for Alan to take the tray.As Shirley and Alan turned to leave, the servant with the stomach ache suddenly smiled cunningly and swiftly disappeared.Not far into their departure, Alan received a phone call and immediately said to Shirley, "Mrs. Nelson is looking for me."Shi

    Shirley dared not move, afraid that if Monica got any more agitated, she would actually go for her face.It wouldn't matter if she scratched her own face, what she feared was that Monica would harm her child!"So, you deliberately had your maid bring me here, then tried to frame me? Have you thought about it? If you mar my face, how will you explain it to your family? I'm after all a guest of the Smith family, if you treat me like this, how will you explain it to the Nelson family?" Shirley forced herself to calm down and pressed on, "If Simon found out that you caused my injuries, how do you think he would view you? Just calm down, let's talk this out.""Cut the act! Do you think I'm not prepared?" Monica suddenly slapped herself hard on the face.It was a really harsh slap.The five-finger mark was clearly visible!"I defended myself because you drugged and hit me, that's why I retaliated in panic and grabbed the fruit knife on the table, slashing your face!" Monica looked menacingl

    Just as Monica was about to lose her temper, Shirley quickly said, "Acting! Hurry!"Monica immediately realized what was happening and exclaimed, "What are you doing?"Shirley immediately raised her voice, pointing at Monica and scolding harshly, "You've been against me several times since I arrived today, Monica, what's your intention? Are you deliberately against me? Women who dare to oppose me never end well!"Monica cooperatively fell to the ground, crying incessantly.Sure enough, the next moment, the door was suddenly thrown open, and Simon rushed in.As soon as Simon entered, he saw the scene.Shirley raised her hand and hit Monica, leaving clear five-finger marks on her face.Monica lay on the ground, crying incessantly.Shirley kept shouting, "What kind of miss are you? You're just a daughter adopted by the Smith family. What qualifications do you have to compare yourself with me?"Monica's face darkened slightly, but she knew that even if Shirley's words struck a nerve, she

    Shirley turned to leave, but Simon's voice came from behind, "You're going the wrong way! If you keep walking forward, you'll reach the back door."Shirley stopped in her tracks.Simon caught up to Shirley and without a word, helped her put on the clothes again, "I sincerely apologize for what happened just now! I promise it won't happen again! However, I have to say that things between Monica and me are really not what you think."Shirley gave Simon a cold look and said indifferently, "Whatever kind of siblings you two are, it has nothing to do with me. All I know is that I went through a lot today! Simon, if something happens to me at the Smith family, will the Smith family continue to cover up for Monica?""How could they?" Simon instinctively refuted."How will the Smith family handle today's situation then?" Shirley asked, looking up at Simon.Simon's expression faltered. As long as it didn't escalate too much, there wouldn't be any substantial punishment for Monica...Shirley su

    Just then, Keith's phone finally rang. Without waiting for a second ring, Shirley answered the call, "Hello, Keith, where are you?""I just arrived. Where are you now?" Keith's voice was low."Keith, I... I..." Shirley suddenly felt so wronged, that her voice choked up instantly.With Shirley's crying, Keith on the other end of the line got anxious, "What's wrong? Have you been wronged? Tell me your location, I'll come find you!""I'm at..." Shirley looked around blankly, not knowing where she was.Seeing Shirley's tearful eyes, Simon, who was previously intimate with Shirley, was shocked and immediately released her, creating distance.Simon gave Shirley a deep look before turning around unsteadily and walking away.Shirley was holding the phone, feeling upset, and blurted out tearfully, "Keith, take me home, okay?""Sure, I'll be right over!" Keith didn't dare hang up the phone and immediately started searching everywhere for Shirley.Finally, in the backyard, he found Shirley sitti

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.

    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.
