She was crying. Standing on the roadside, she kept wiping away tears from her face with one hand, while tightly gripping her phone with the other."Stop the car!" Terry shouted.The driver quickly pulled the car over to the side of the road. Terry immediately got out of the car and approached Lisa. "What are you doing here? Why..."His voice came to an abrupt halt when he saw her face as she looked up at him. Her eyes were red and filled with tears. The sight tugged at his heart."Waah!" Lisa suddenly raised her hands and pounded Terry's chest repeatedly.Terry grabbed her hands with a frown. "What's gotten into you? What happened?""They're gone! The photos... they're all gone! The phone repair shops all said the photos can't be retrieved anymore, they're completely erased!" Lisa sobbed. "Do you have any idea how important those photos are to me? How could you delete them?"Terry's frown deepened, his voice turning cold. "I already told you, those are my photos. I can do whatev
Because... that's their baby!He still cared about the baby after all!When the car arrived at the best maternity hospital in Jorvik, Terry carried Lisa out of the car. Inside the hospital, doctors and nurses were already waiting for them after receiving prior notification.Lisa was taken directly into the examination room for a check-up. Terry stood outside the room, still holding the phone that Lisa had been holding the entire time.He had no idea that she cared so much about those photos. She had actually spent the afternoon running around visiting phone repair shops to try retrieving the photos.They're her memories?Terry didn't know how to feel about that.Suddenly, the phone rang. The caller ID was "Mom."After a moment of hesitation, Terry answered the phone. "Auntie Hersha? This is Terry."Lisa's mother on the other end of the phone sounded surprised. "You... Why are you the one answering the phone? Where's Lisa?""She's feeling a bit unwell, so I brought her to the
When Terry returned to the White family mansion, he saw his mother, whom he had not seen for a long time, in the living room. She was elegantly dressed, adorned with expensive jewelry, as if she wanted everyone to know that she was now the mistress of the White family.Their relationship was not exactly good or bad; they were more like partners than family. She gave him life and fed and housed him, investing time and effort into his upbringing. Even when the family's main branch tried to get rid of him, she fiercely protected him. It could be said that she played a significant role in his rise to power.However, his mother only saw him as a tool to improve her own status. She had no real affection for his father. In the pursuit of a wealthy life, she chose to become his father's mistress. Of course, her ambitions didn't stop there; that's why she worked hard to conceive him and raise him.When he was young, his mother often told him, "You're a child of the White family. Just lik
The plan her son came up with to deal with the Hart family was so meticulous, every element was intricately connected. When she later found out about it, she was shocked. She never imagined that her son could devise such a grand scheme to take down the Hart family. Her son had grown even more calculative with time. Fortunately, he was her son, so there was no reason for her to be afraid. All she had to do was reap the benefits."Is that all, Mom? Because I'd like to go to bed early," Terry said, massaging his temples.He did look exhausted, Glynnis thought. "Alright, go get some rest. Your birthday is coming up soon. I've organized a birthday party for you and invited many prominent individuals from the city. Make sure you don't be late."Her son had recently ended his relationship with Monica Hart, and the White Maple Group had successfully acquired most of the Hart family's businesses. In the past, she had to feign smiles for the Hart family, but now, she could finally stand t
In the wee hours of the morning, the nurse was startled by the sound of the door opening. Momentarily frozen, she saw a tall figure enter the room."Excuse me, sir, what...""Please step outside for a moment. I wish to be alone with her," Terry cut her short."But..." the nurse hesitated."I'm Terry White," he said.The nurse was taken aback. Terry White? The person who arranged this job for her had instructed her to be careful when she cared for the pregnant woman because the person hiring her was the CEO of the White Maple Group. She knew that the CEO of the White Maple Group was Terry White. This was her first time seeing him in person.Silently, the nurse left the hospital room, gently closing the door behind her.Terry gazed at the sleeping Lisa whose face was illuminated by the moonlight seeping through the window. Her serene expression seemed to calm the restlessness in his heart."Lisa, how much do you truly love me? How much of what you said was true?" Terry murmured
"Only one month?" Lisa's mother, unable to hide her concern, couldn't help but worry. One month seemed way too short. Could Lisa really mend things with Terry in such a brief period?Lisa smiled and said, "If he still has feelings for me, a month is more than enough. If he doesn't, even a whole year wouldn't make a difference."Lisa's mother sighed. "Alright, we won't intervene in your relationship. After a month, whether you stay or leave, we'll be there for you."Lisa's father nodded, agreeing with his wife.Lisa tightened her grip on the phone. In one month, there would be a resolution between her and Terry.In a prison's visitor room, Jackson asked Walter, "You altered my memories during the hypnosis session, didn't you?"With a faint smile, Walter replied, "Looks like you've found out, Master Jackson.""Are you gonna tell me that you did all this for my grandfather and for the Valor family?" Jackson's voice carried a hint of coldness."Of course," Walter replied without a
After Jackson walked out of the cold meeting room, Walter's demeanor visibly changed from composed to agitated."Makes us... human... How could having weaknesses not be a bad thing?! What nonsense... Everything I did, I did for the Valor family, for Master Zack..." Jackson naturally couldn't hear him. Even if he could, he wouldn't care.Outside the prison, a black car was waiting for Jackson. Connor respectfully opened the door for him."Let's go home," Jackson ordered.The car slowly made its way towards the Valor Residence. Along the way, Connor told Jackson, "Mr. Valor, someone is investigating Jenny Hall."Jackson's eyes narrowed slightly. "Who?" Jenny Hall was already dead. Even the Hall family tried to not bring her up nowadays. Yet, someone was now digging into her affairs."The Stanton family from Lanford," Connor answered."The Stanton family? Weston Stanton?" Jackson asked."All traces point to it being Weston Stanton. The Stanton family should be aware that there
Jacqueline exclaimed, "Daddy, Daddy, look at me!" With that, she imitated Serenity and began jumping. While watching his daughter's adorable jumps, Jackson noticed Fred, who was standing nearby, out of the corner of his eye.The Stanton family in Lanford was investigating Jenny Hall. Could it have something to do with Fred?How did Jenny Hall get involved with the Stanton family? If Jenny Hall truly had ties to the Stanton family, she wouldn't have ended her own life in prison. Knowing her, she would have sought the help of the Stanton family to make a comeback. Perhaps she herself was unaware of her relationship with them?Contemplating this possibility, a hint of thoughtfulness flashed in Jackson's eyes.Meanwhile, Jacqueline, who had just started learning how to jump rope, accidentally stumbled and fell. Serenity quickly helped the little girl up. Noticing Jacqueline's torn pants and potential scrape on her knee, Serenity carefully rolled up her daughter's pants.Fred and M
