The voice of Weston came through the phone, "What's the matter? Why are you suddenly calling me? Do you want to chat about the children?""Yes, I do want to talk about the children," Jackson replied calmly. "Did my son and daughter go to your house?""Don't tell me you lost your son and daughter?" Weston casually joked.But to his surprise, Jackson replied, "Yeah."*Cough cough*... A series of coughs came from the other end of the phone. The coughing only subsided after a while. "Your kids are missing?""Yes. If they come to you, please inform me immediately," Jackson requested."No problem. Do you want me to help you find them? This is Lanford, not Solaria. I have more connections here than you do," Weston offered, feeling obligated since Jackson had previously helped take care of his son."I would appreciate it," Jackson replied gratefully.And so, Weston and Jackson both leveraged their connections to conduct a search within Lanford. Unbeknownst to them, the two children wer

"Breached?" Weston quickly ran through a mental list of his business rivals, trying to figure out who might be targeting him. "So, when can we expect everything to go back to normal?" he asked his subordinate."It might take some time, but the backup power supply has already been activated. The mansion should regain power soon," the subordinate replied.True to his words, the lights in the mansion soon came back on. Weston pondered for a moment, then called Jackson. "Jackson, I remember your son is rather skilled with computers, right?" he asked.After all, during his previous investigation of the Valor family, he had come across mentions of Micah's expertise in computers. At that time, he hadn't thought much of it, believing Micah's skills were only good for a kid. But now... he had to reconsider his assessment.Weston then asked, "Tell me, how did your son and daughter manage to leave the hotel? Don't hotels have surveillance cameras? Didn't the security guards notice two childre

"I don’t care if it's old or if it's a girl's toy, it's still mine! No one has the right to take it away from me!" Fred roared like an angry lion cub. "Where's the doll?" It was the only thing he had brought with him from the Valor Residence. It was a gift from Jackie, and it was a priceless treasure to him!The maid was taken aback, her voice faltering as she replied, "It's... it's in the store room." Normally, items in the store room were useless items that the servants would store and sell to scrap collectors in bulk. It was a source of extra income for the servants.Fred dashed downstairs towards the store room, with the maid trailing closely behind. From the shadows, Jacqueline blinked her eyes.She had indeed seen Fred, but there was something different about him, a change she couldn't quite put into words. The way the maid respectfully addressed him as "Master Frederick" indicated that he was living a comfortable life here. Jacqueline suddenly felt hesitant to ask Fred to g

Jacqueline swiftly ran away, equipping her night vision goggles as she moved. The power in the mansion went out once more. However, with her night vision goggles, Jacqueline had no problem moving around and effortlessly made her way to the store room.Inside, the store room was engulfed in darkness. Fred was there, clutching the doll tightly in his hands. The maid who followed him there was grumbling, "The power has already gone out twice today. What the heck is going on? But the power will be restored soon, Master Frederick, so don't worry."Through her night vision goggles, Jacqueline stared blankly at the person she had been tirelessly searching for. Fred was right there, standing just a short distance away. If she walked up to him, she could reach out and touch him!"Who's there?" Fred's sudden question pierced the silence.His acute hearing, heightened by the darkness, allowed him to sense her presence."Huh? Is someone else here?" the maid asked, puzzled.Jacqueline felt

Jacqueline's words gushed out in a rapid stream, filled with apologies she had wanted to express to him for days. She told him that, ever since he left, she had been constantly thinking about him. She thought about him when she ate and when she slept. Even her favorite chocolate no longer tasted good.She rambled on incessantly, leaving the maid feeling overwhelmed.What is the girl even saying..."Me and Micah and Daddy and Mommy came to Lanford specifically to see you. Why didn't you come? I was so disappointed this afternoon that I almost cried!" Jacqueline pouted.Fred clenched his lips tightly. His father had mentioned that Jackie and her family were coming to Lanford and asked him if he wanted to see them. He did want to see Jackie, but... he was afraid that she would look at him like she's looking at a bad boy again, afraid that she would ask him to go back with her to apologize to Yanny.So he told his father that he didn't want to go and that he would rather attend his

Weston's eyes narrowed. Today, his mansion had experienced two power outages and a security system breach. When he came out of his room, he saw a bunch of servants lying on the floor surrounded by beans and scattered banknotes. It was complete chaos.Two children actually managed to cause so much chaos in the Stanton mansion. When people heard of this, they would surely have a hard time believing it."Fred, come here," Weston called out to his son.Fred hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he didn't move because Jackie was holding onto his hand tightly."Daddy, why didn't you tell me that the reason Jackie and her family came to Lanford to see me was because they already found out that I didn't push Yanny down the stairs on purpose, and they're here to apologize to me?" Fred asked, looking directly at his father.Weston simply shrugged with a nonchalant smile. "I forgot to mention it. But now you know, don't you?"He acted as if it was no big deal at all.Fred bit his lip."

The problem was, this girl was Jackson Valor's daughter. The Valor family was based in Solaria while the Stanton family was based in Lanford, so there wasn't much interaction between the two families, but the Stanton family wouldn't want to offend the Valor family if they could help it.Mia gave Weston a stern look. "That's enough. You're scaring the girl."Weston smiled without saying a word.Mia approached and comforted Jacqueline. "Alright, child, stop crying. Since you've come to apologize, I'm sure Fred will accept your apology. Your parents will come pick you up soon, so get ready to go back with them."Mia simply wanted to send the girl away as soon as possible.She tried to pull Jacqueline into a hug, but the little girl stubbornly clung to Fred and wouldn't let go, sticking to him like glue. Mia couldn't separate them.When she tried using a little more force, Jacqueline cried even louder, as if she would be separated from Fred forever. She screamed, "No, I don't want to

"This is my favorite chocolate, and this is an apology card I wrote. Fred, we're still friends, right?" Jacqueline said tearfully.The chocolate and the apology card felt heavy in Fred's hands.When he opened the card, he saw that it was packed with densely-written words.He knew that she hated writing. Whenever her kindergarten and home teachers told her to practice writing, she would slack off. Aunt Serene always complained that, because she wouldn't practice, she couldn't even write her own name properly.But he could see that every letter on the apology card was written by her. There were so many words!Because Fred didn't say anything, Jacqueline nervously asked, "Is... my handwriting too ugly? I... I tried my best! Keep the card for now. I promise I'll practice my handwriting. I'll make my handwriting really, really pretty!" After all, she was only 6 years old. When she grew up, her handwriting would definitely become really pretty!Just then, they could hear another voice

“……” Morgan suddenly found himself unable to retort. She... wasn't wrong. “But when you play house, you can pretend to be parents with one person today and another person tomorrow. Real marriage is different; you can’t choose someone else.”Renee widened her eyes, listening intently.“The only person you can choose is me. Do you understand, Renee?” he continued.She nodded vigorously. “I understand!”“Do you really?” Morgan asked, a little skeptical. He was already fifteen, so he could grasp the concept of marriage, but she was only eight. Could she truly comprehend it?“So, in the future, I can only marry Morgan and be your bride, right? I can't be someone else's bride, right?” she asked. “I don’t want to marry other boys anyway. I like you the most, Morgan. Of course I’ll only be your bride!” she happily declared, her worries fading away.So she could be Morgan's bride when she grew up! That's great!After finishing another piece of snack, Renee thought of something. She put o

Despite her unease, she couldn’t resist when she saw the sweet desserts. She indulged herself.However, as she ate, her eyes remained fixed on Morgan, clearly still waiting for him to clarify Lucy’s claims.“You want to know if you’re a child bride, right?” Morgan began.Renee nodded.“Do you know what a child bride is?” he asked.She blinked. She had a vague idea, but not enough for her to articulate it.“To put it simply, a child bride is a girl raised by a boy's family. The girl will marry the boy when she comes of age. In the old days, some families were too poor to raise their daughters, so they would sell their daughters to become child brides for richer families,” Morgan explained.Renee blinked. “But my parents aren’t poor, and I'm raised by them, not by other people. That means I’m not a child bride, right?”“Correct, you are not,” Morgan affirmed.She breathed a sigh of relief, and a bright smile spread across her face. “I knew it! My parents would never sell me!

"Morgan!" Renee turned to Morgan, unease etched on her face."The Moon family, eh? I'll remember this," Morgan replied calmly, then lowered his head to meet Renee's anxious and confused face. "Let's go, Renee. I’ll tell you what you want to know later."He led her away holding her hand.Benson looked worried. "Miss Lucy, how could you say that?""It's the truth!" Lucy shook off her fear and spoke defiantly. "Daddy and Mommy said she’s a child bride. A child bride is a girl sold by her own parents!""But the White family is not like that. Those things only happened to daughters of poor families in the old days," Benson explained. "You really shouldn’t have said that, Miss Lucy. You shouldn’t do that again.""Why do I have to listen to you?" Lucy retorted, displeased.Benson was too ashamed to tell Lucy in front of others that the Moon family simply couldn’t afford to offend Morgan. Dealing with the White family was already a headache, and Morgan's background was even more formi

Benson and Lucy were also dumbfounded. Benson started getting anxious. He felt like things were starting to unfold in ways that he did not expect."Mr. Grimes, I..." Benson stepped forward, intending to speak to Mr. Grimes.However, Mr. Grimes moved past Benson without so much as a glance at him. He went up to Morgan and said, "Master Morgan, I apologize for the oversight!"Everyone was stunned to hear that, including the security guards who had been called over. They were secretly relieved they hadn't forcibly removed anyone yet. If they had offended someone Mr. Grimes was showing so much respect to, it would have been really bad for them!Morgan regarded Mr. Grimes with an unreadable expression. He calmly recounted the situation to Mr. Grimes.After hearing about what happened, Mr. Grimes responded, "This set of stamps was not pre-ordered. If you like it, please take it. Feel free to take anything else in the exhibition that catches your eye."This declaration shocked every

"Who are you?!" Benson exclaimed, astonished. The mysterious figure remained silent, simply looking at Morgan.Morgan calmly reiterated to Benson, "I said, wait for Mr. Grimes." He then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "I'm Morgan Wood. Please have Mr. Grimes from Lazy Cat Culture come to the Sleepy Cat Exhibition in Solaria. He should be in the area, right?"After ending the call, the person on the other end stared at the phone in disbelief.The Sleepy Cat Exhibition? What's going on?Benson, Lucy, and the staff stared at Morgan in shock, but the look in their eyes quickly turned to ridicule."Ah, a young man's naive bravado – how impudent!" Benson scoffed."Sir, please don't cause trouble," the staff member warned. "Or I'll have to call security."Morgan simply lowered his head to say to Renee, "Looks like we'll be here for a while. If you're bored, I can ask someone to walk around with you."Renee shook her head. "Morgan, what if this stamp set has really been p

Benson's words were not only meant to exert pressure on the staff, but also to inform him that they were on the same side.As expected, when the staff heard what he said, there was an instant change in his expression. He turned to Morgan and Renee and said, "I'm sorry, but it turns out this stamp set has already been pre-ordered by this customer."Morgan saw through the so-called pre-order as nothing more than an act. "When I asked you to wrap it up earlier, I didn’t hear you mention it was pre-ordered.""We forgot to mention that. Our apologies," the staff replied.Lucy, wearing a smug expression, raised her chin at Renee, causing Renee to puff out her cheeks in frustration.Benson calmly observed Morgan and Renee. The White family's White Maple Group had numerous overlapping businesses with the Moon Group. They were often competing with each other. Originally, the White Maple Group’s business activities weren't concentrated in Solaria, so even though there was competition wi

But before Morgan had even finished speaking, a girl's voice piped up, "I want this stamp set!"He turned to the voice and, upon seeing who it was, narrowed his eyes slightly. It was Lucy Moon, the girl Renee mentioned earlier. At the sight of Lucy, Renee immediately reacted like an angry little kitten. "Lucy Moon, why do you always try to take my stuff away?""Your stuff? How is this your stuff? You haven't paid yet!" Lucy shot back, her eyes fixed on Morgan.Morgan was well-known in their class, admired by many girls who claimed he was even more handsome than movie stars. If only Lucy had a big brother like that! She would be the envy of all the girls in class... no, all the girls in school!Unfortunately, her own big brother was not as good-looking.Last time, Lucy had tried to give Renee Sleepy Cat toys, asking for Morgan's email address in return. However, Renee accepted gifts from everyone but her, which infuriated Lucy."But if you want, I can give this stamp set to Re

Unlike many wealthy kids, Renee was quite restrained with her spending. She had never spent recklessly and often saved leftover money. Of course, when she wanted something beyond her budget, she would act cute and ask her Daddy or Morgan to buy it for her.Lisa was the least susceptible to her charms, so Renee didn’t dare to bother her!When they arrived at the exhibition, Renee’s eyes sparkled with excitement. There were so many adorable Sleepy Cat merchandise! They're all so cute! She wanted a lot of them, but realizing her limited budget, she knew she needed a sponsor! The best one was right beside her: Morgan!"Morgan," she said, flashing him a super bright smile.Seeing her like this, Morgan immediately knew she wanted to ask him for something. "What is it? Do you want me to buy you Sleepy Cat merchandise?""You’re so smart, Morgan! No wonder so many girls in our class like you and asked me for your phone number!" Renee praised him.As soon as she mentioned it, Morgan'

"Okay," Renee replied obediently, snuggling up to Morgan and acting cute. "Take me to the exhibition, Morgan! I know you’re the best. You’ll definitely take me, right?"Morgan pursed his lips. At 15, he was no longer a little boy. Although Renee was only 8, she was his destined wife.He had been protecting her since the day she was born. At first, he thought that he would only marry her because according to the family prophecy, she was the one most suitable for him. Over the years, however, he realized that his feelings for her ran deeper than he had initially thought.He found himself wanting to help her fulfill her wishes, and would clean up the mess when she caused trouble. Things had become different from what he had expected, but he welcomed them. He felt grateful that she was the one who was destined for him!With her by his side for the rest of his life, he would never feel lonely."Will you get into fights again?" Morgan asked."No more fighting, I promise!" Renee quickly
