When Byron returned to the manor, Rosalie hinted through eye contact that he should keep it a secret from the kids that Melody got into an accident.“Daddy, Mommy, I registered myself in the Coding Competition. It’s a global-level competition!” Nox wanted to get his parents to praise him. Byron immediately touched Nox’s head and praised, “Bravo! Remember not to bully the other kids with your skills.”Nox’s hacking skill had already reached a level that could make Byron’s jaw drop.Lucian wanted to enjoy being touched on the head by his daddy. Thus, he also said, “Daddy, I registered myself in a reality show called ‘The Brilliants’ and got first place in the qualifying round. The show crew wants me to join the final round. Can I go?’That startled Rosalie. She wondered what the little ones had been doing when she and Byron were not around.Byron carried Lucian and kissed him as he praised, “Lucian, you have a good memory that's better than a computer. You can go if you want to. I
It was late at night, and the children were deep asleep.Rosalie’s abdomen was in pain, and she could not even sleep well.Byron warmed her stomach as he muttered about her working so hard without paying attention to her health.“It hurts because I didn't take care of my health after giving birth to the kids,” Rosalie said.That made Byron feel bad, and he started to evaluate his mistakes.His palm was warm, and the strength he exerted when he massaged her was just nice. Gradually, the pain Rosalie felt reduced.“It’s not your fault. It only hurts most on the first day. I’ll be fine tomorrow!” Rosalie comforted Byron.Then, she mentioned the car crash.“After the investigation and looking through the surveillance camera footage provided by Linda and Mary, it shows no one had the chance to do anything to your car. I wonder if it's really because the brake has worn out.”Byron concluded all the details found and looked at Rosalie, waiting for her to recall if she had missed anyt
It was the day those companies moved into the newly built office building in Coast City.It had more than a hundred floors. The Murray family’s international trading company occupied more than 20 floors in between.Beatrice wore office attire as she sat in the office room of the finance department’s director, checking through the company’s financial statement this month.After concluding the report, she was overjoyed and quickly dialed her brother’s number.“Alistair, congratulations! The revenue of the import trading doubled this month. It has increased 130% from last month’s revenue. Your plan is working.”The business field was just like a battlefield. Beatrice had to admit her brother was indeed brilliant.“We're still far from achieving our goal. We've snatched three clients from Lawrence Corporation, yet he still has many projects. This is unbelievable. You can see how good Byron is from this!”The victory did not blind Alistair. Instead, he felt Byron had a scarily outsta
Beatrice was also shocked when she knew about this.The trading business was a field where one could easily fall into a trap or be deceived. No matter how many projects they had, getting paid by the clients was the most important part of the business.She quickly reported to Alistair about it.“I’ll ask Douglas to investigate!” Alistair sounded serious.Alistair had given Douglas Yelger, his assistant, the contact list for Lawrence Corporation’s clients.Douglas immediately called Mr. Paulo when he got the order from Alistair.A few minutes later, Douglas called Alistair back.“What? The number is canceled?” Alistair’s anger shot through him.“I’ll try contacting the other two clients. Maybe something happened. Mr. Paulo is always in trouble and changes his phone number frequently.” Douglas tried to explain that this might be a coincidence, but he was also worried.He hung up the call and contacted the other two clients.The increase in performance this month was mainly due t
That night, Alistair received a phone call from home. His parents scolded him for at least half an hour.Beatrice’s smile had also faded. She would have to return to the north and face the conservative elders if her brother’s company went bankrupt.The northern climate was too dry and bad for her skin.However, her mood was still joyful. After all, she had successfully invited Andrius to meet her.Initially, she wanted to compensate for the damage to the car, but Andrius rejected it. She tried pleading with him, and finally, he agreed to let her buy him a meal.By constantly asking Andrea, she had quite some understanding of Andrius’ character. He was a straightforward man who was not romantic.When Alistair left his office, Andrea poured him a cup of tea and did not dare to say a word. She was afraid saying any words of comfort might trigger Andrius’ anger.“It’s only a few hundred million, Brother. I don’t know what the old fellas at home are thinking. They love money so much!
In the villa, Andrius and Byron were having tea while discussing business.No further information had been found regarding the cause of the car crash.Andrius knew his sister worked in Alistair’s company. He wanted to get her back home to interrogate her, yet Byron stopped him.“Last time, it was Alistair who asked Old Master Loewe to help us. Although Rosie wrote the antidote prescription, Old Master Loewe also played a crucial part. So, from this point of view, Alistair isn't someone who would use such a despicable approach. So, we can eliminate him from the list of suspects.”Andrea nodded. It was logical.The Murray family was famous in the north. They were powerful and had many sub-companies under them. Alistair, who was from this type of family, might play dirty, but he would still abide by the law.“Have you been taking your medication lately?” Byron asked suddenly.Andrius nodded. “I’ve taken them according to the prescription. Dr. Wilson told me to go for another check-
On a luxury cruise ship, Chloe arrived at her destination.“The plan failed. Now, Melody is trying to be a good mother-in-law. She doesn’t suspect anything of Rosalie.” Chloe looked disappointed as she waited for Kelly.However, all she saw was Kelly’s distorted face out of fury.“Well, well! Why hasn’t karma struck Melody? Does she trust Rosalie? Alright then. Let’s make Rosalie suspect her, then.” Kelly clenched her teeth as she spoke.“Uhh… I think it’s difficult to do that. Your plan has alarmed them this time. Now Byron is protecting Rosalie more than before.”Before Chloe could finish her words, Kelly snorted and interrupted, “What are you afraid of? Let’s target the kids, then! After all, I have nothing to lose and fear. I should've been meaner and killed the three kids. That would've made my life easier!”Chloe felt a chill run down her spine.She suddenly realized that her cooperation with Kelly was very wrong.This woman returned with deep hatred and had nothing to lo
Byron and Rosalie were at the entrance of the marriage registration unit.Rosalie held the marriage certificate and was in a trance as if she had returned six years ago.That year, she had also married Byron without any preparation.It was just that back then, Byron had registered their marriage hastily. He even left immediately after the registration. Luther was the one who drove her back home.It was as if it was only a business occasion.At the moment, Byron wore a stylish suit and smiled with roses in his hands.“How did it occur to you to get our marriage registered first?” Byron approached and kissed Rosalie’s forehead without caring they were in public.Next to them, many of the couples waiting to register could not take their eyes off them.The man's and woman's appearance was breathtaking.“We're busy people, so it's better to register our marriage first. After all, you've proposed, and I have to give the kids a promising life. Later, I must add your last name to Luci
