"Besides, it's been more than ten years! Can the four hundred thousand dollars from over ten years ago be the same as the four hundred thousand now?" Aunt Wright deliberately put on a sad expression and said, "Back then, our entire Wright family went bankrupt in order to treat your father's illness! We couldn't even gather enough money for Betty's college tuition..."

"Aunt, Betty is only a hundred points away from the cut-off score for a specialized secondary school, right?" Shirley couldn't help but expose Aunt Wright's lies.

She really dares to say it! Considering Betty's grades, she barely managed to get a high school diploma by spending money!

Keith couldn't help but laugh lightly. That smile was like the winter fading away and the spring breeze brushing one's face.

Although Aunt Wright was already in her forties, she was still stunned when she saw Keith's smile!

"It seems that Aunt is not satisfied with the amount of money." Keith finally spoke, tapping the back of the chair wi

    "How do we get revenge?" Shirley suddenly turned her head, but unbeknownst to her, Keith had lowered his body and leaned against her back.

She did not doubt that if she just leaned forward slightly, she would be able to kiss his lips.The proximity was too ambiguous... their breathing could be heard so clearly...Keith restrained himself and didn't instinctively lean in to kiss those glossy red lips.

    "Dad, is there something wrong?" Shirley asked proactively."Shirley... are you guys going into town later?" Mr. Wright cautiously asked."Yes." Shirley answered, "We brought so many people, there's no room for them at home! So we'll be staying at a hotel in the county tonight.""Can you give me a ride too?" Mr. Wright's eyes lit up, full of anticipation. "At this hour, the buses to the county have already stopped running, you see..."Shirley immediately smiled, "Of course! Dad, let Mom know, you all can go to the county with us. I want to buy you some clothes!"Upon hearing that Shirley was willing to buy him clothes, Mr. Wright grinned happily, rubbing his hands together, "Great! Shirley, you're filial, Daddy is very happy!"Despite Grandma mistreating her mom, her dad always stood by and did nothing. But after all, he was her adoptive father!Shirley smiled and said, "Go tell Mom and prepare. We'll leave soon!""Okay, okay!" Mr. Wright left immediately, beaming with joy.Keith's ga

That's why I want to have my own child!""Then why did you get divorced?" the woman asked, pressing further. "Was it because your ex-spouse couldn't have children?""Yes," Mr. Wright replied decisively!Divorce?!Shirley's heart suddenly felt constricted.What did she just hear?She heard her dad going on a blind date here?And her dad even told the other person that he's already divorced!He also said that not having a child in his whole life is his regret!Why?Dad, why?

    Shirley returned to her room and saw Keith on the phone.Seeing Shirley returning, Keith made a gesture for her to wait and continued his call.After finishing his call, Keith said to Shirley, "Do you need me to accompany you?"Shirley was originally going to shake her head, but she inexplicably nodded.At this moment, she didn't even have someone to discuss ideas with.Although she and Keith were only contractually married, since he was willing to offer help, she shouldn't refuse, right?Otherwise, she would truly have no one to discuss things with..."Your father just finished meeting with one woman, and he's preparing for the next one. The address is at TW Cafe." Keith's voice was calm, devoid of any emotion. "The appointment is in half an hour."Shirley's heart sank suddenly! What does Dad want to do? Weren't they getting along well just now? Why does he need to meet again and again...No, no matter how many women he meets, the nature of it is the same.Dad, why is this?Shirley n

    "To be honest, I do need a child to inherit my family business." Mr. Wright thought for a moment.

    Upon hearing her father's words, Shirley burst into laughter without any reservation.Grandma, you're quite cunning! How much do you hate Mom for being so heartless and trying to ruin her? You tell Dad that this money is to compensate Mom by buying a house, and then tell Mom that it's to buy a house for you both! Then you turn around and tell Betty that this house is for her!Grandma, who is this house really for?"What about all the money you've saved over the years?" Shirley suddenly asked, "Why does Mom always say that the money earned every year is just enough for the household expenses?"Mr. Wright hung his head, afraid to look at Shirley."Dad, if you still want to acknowledge me as your daughter, you better tell me the truth!" At this moment, Shirley's remaining bit of father-daughter affection was completely eroded by the heartlessness of the Wright family.

Keith hadn't said a word before, as he wanted to respect Shirley; after all, this was her family matter."I don't know," Shirley rubbed her face vigorously, trying to gather herself. "Keith, I really regret it. If it weren't for me, would my mom's fate be different?""Don't dwell on it," Keith pondered for a moment. "Tonight, first gauge your mom's reaction before making any decisions. Also, if you've decided on a divorce, I'll help gather evidence.""Okay, thank you!" Shirley said to Keith very seriously.Hearing Shirley's gratitude, a slight discomfort stirred in Keith's heart.He didn't do all this just to hear her say thank you. He just hoped that Shirley wouldn't always treat him as an outsider.Wait a minute, why did he suddenly have this thought?Keith narrowed his eyes and his eyelashes trembled, unable to hide the shock in his heart.When did he start having this tho

    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

Shirley countered Evan.As Evan hesitated about whether to help, a commotion erupted at the entrance.Shirley followed the crowd's gaze.

    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!
