After Shirley and Keith got in the car, they started driving back.

"How do you plan to handle this situation?" 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.

    Shirley quietly accompanied her mother and had dinner.Shirley had been trying to think of a topic in her mind, but she couldn't find a suitable way to broach it.It was Mrs. Wright who took the initiative to speak first: "Time flies so fast. It feels like just a blink of an eye and you've grown up! I remember when I brought you home, you were so small!" Mrs. Wright gestured and compared Shirley's size, saying, "It's been twenty-two years, and you've grown so much! You're already an adult!""Mom..." Shirley's eyes welled up with tears, and she didn't know how to respond.Her mother rarely spoke about her own things; it seemed like she had always avoided this topic.Why did she suddenly bring it up today?"Shirley, there's something your mom has been wanting to ask you, but I was always afraid to ask, afraid of hurting your feelings." Mrs. Wright hesitated and said, "You've grown up now, have you ever thought about finding your biological parents?""Mom! What are you saying? When I was

    Keith stood by the window, his gaze falling on Shirley and Mrs. Wright.He didn't know what Shirley was going to do, but no matter what it was, he would support her wholeheartedly.A knock on the door came from outside, and Tony walked over stealthily. "Mr. Keith, Madam went to the beauty center with Mrs. Wright.""I see." Keith lowered his eyes, moonlight spilling onto his peerless face, veiling it with an indescribable allure.Tony merely glanced at Keith before swiftly lowering his head.The President's appearance was too aggressive, not only towards the opposite sex but even towards the same sex, it had a strong visual impact.The President always knew how beautiful he was, so he particularly disliked it when others stared at his face so intently.Of course, that was the rule from before.Now that rule seemed to have been broken, and the one breaking it was none other than the President's wife!"Keep up and protect her carefully." Keith lightly tapped the glass with his fingers. "

    Maggie thought that Shirley was envious of her phone, deliberately turned the phone towards Shirley, and continued to act coy, saying, "Honey, if you don't come to see me, I won't have an appetite!""Heh, I have something to take care of tonight, so grab something to eat yourself."Shirley suddenly stood up, her eyes fixed on Maggie's Apple phone with a cold gaze!Dad! You've gone too far!"I don't care! If you don't come to see me, I won't eat!" Maggie continued to act spoiled, completely believing that Shirley was envious of her phone, her face filled with pride!Shirley tightly gripped the magazine in her hand, her eyes cold as she looked at Maggie... and her phone.After Maggie finished her sweet talk on the phone, Shirley couldn't bear it any longer and said, "Is your husband Robert Wright?"Maggie was stunned, blurting out, "How do you know my husband?"Shirley closed her eyes in an instant!It's amazing how coincidences happen when you least expect them!So this woman is the mi

    Keith lazily leaned back on the high stool, lightly spinning the glass of red wine in his hand, seemingly satisfied as he watched the crimson liquid inside the glass. This was a vintage from an Italian winery that his assistant always carried with him. It was worth a hundred thousand dollars a bottle and was priceless. The annual production was only a thousand bottles. Only someone like Keith could casually carry such an expensive wine and use it as a stress reliever. As Keith swirled the glass, his thoughts wandered. He didn't know how Shirley's conversation with her mother went. How would she approach this situation? If she couldn't handle it, would she seek his help? Suddenly, he felt a longing. If she reached out to him, he would instantly resolve everything for her... Betty was a bit disappointed because she couldn't find Keith. She decided to try her luck at the bar. If she still couldn't find him, she would give up completely. But when she stepped inside the bar, she glanc

    Perhaps God heard Shirley's prayer because, as Mrs. Wright endured punches, a sudden sound of shattered glass came from behind her!Everyone turned around simultaneously.The previously sturdy display windows and doors had been kicked in.A tall and handsome man with an imposing presence strode in, his gaze immediately focusing on Shirley.A chilling aura spread as he pursed his lips, and he coldly uttered, "Who dares to lay a hand on my woman?"Hearing this familiar voice, Shirley suddenly felt her heart at ease.He really had come!Keith was followed by a group of people who entered with a loud commotion.The women in the room were stunned by what they saw.This man... was so handsome!He seemed to have walked straight out of a painting, perfectly flawless.But in the next second, his presence became overwhelming, and everyone instinctively looked away, unable to continue watching!Keith's gaze fell upon Shirley, worry and anger clearly visible in his eyes.Mrs. Wright finally had a

    "Just now, this lady suddenly rushed over, attempting to murder our president. Is that right?" Tony immediately turned his head and gave the manager a meaningful look.The manager was momentarily stunned but nodded frantically the next second, embellishing Tony's words, "Yes, yes, Miss Maggie initiated the attack and ended up injuring her arm when you defended yourselves and fought back!""Did we fight back?" Tony's voice turned cold.The manager's mind once again became quick-witted as she revised her statement, "No, no, no, she tried to attack you, but accidentally slipped and broke her arm! Mr. Keith chose not to hold her accountable, so there was no request for her to compensate for the damages!"Tony nodded very satisfactorily, "And what about the others? What did you all witness?""It was Miss Maggie who broke her own arm, it has nothing to do with any of you!" The dozen or so beauticians were scared out of their wits, tears streaming down their faces, desperately echoing, "We s

    After being in a daze for a long time, Mrs. Wright suddenly choked up with helplessness. "I don't know either! Shirley, what should I do?"Keith's eyes flickered, his thoughts unreadable."Mom..." Shirley proactively hugged her mother, "No matter what decision you make, I will stand by your side! Mom protected me before, and now it's my turn to protect you!"Keith looked at his wrist and said, "It's getting late. Let's go back to the hotel for now! We can discuss any decisions tomorrow."Shirley silently nodded.Keith drove away with the two of them quickly.Not long after the three of them left, Betty rushed over, gasping for breath.Unfortunately, she arrived too late and was destined to see nothing.Betty just reached the entrance of the beauty center when she saw Keith driving away without even hearing her shouts. He went straight back.After returning to the hotel, Shirley wanted to continue staying with her mother, but Keith reached out and quickly grabbed Shirley's hand, whispe

    Mrs. Wright was dumbfounded and took a while to react.At the same time, Grandma Wright's booming voice filled the yard, "You shameless thing, get out of the Wright family! You've been married into the Wright family for over twenty years, enjoying our meals, and yet you can't even give birth to a child! Now you've learned to stay out all night and sleep with other men!"Mrs. Wright was frozen in place by Grandma Wright's words.What was she saying?She had been with her daughter and son-in-law last night. Why would her mother-in-law defame her like this?Shirley and Keith in the car also heard those words.What did they mean?Shifting the blame onto her?Keith smiled sarcastically and said, "It seems this is the result of your father's discussion with your grandmother. Before your mother returns to confront them, they're preemptively shifting the blame, leaving your mother defenseless! In this situation, your mother's desire to question them has turned into defending herself. I have t

    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

    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!
