Chapter 2483

Author: Anastasia Marie
“Don’t do something shameful if you’re afraid of being ashamed.” Harry sat down at his desk. “Are you here to ask me to help the Hopes?”

“Yes! You should help your wife’s maternal family, right?” Joyce said.

“You shouldn’t take everything for granted. Just like back then, I didn’t really have to marry you,” Harry said nonchalantly.

“Are you trying to blame me for asking you to marry me because of the pregnancy?” Joyce’s expression changed.

Harry didn’t answer her.

“My family won’t help you guys. We don’t want to get dragged into this mess,” Harry said after weighing the pros and cons.

Joyce was taken aback by his coldness. She wondered if he would have helped the Hopes if Summer was his wife.

“If something happened to the Hopes, the projects that were affiliated with the Scotts will definitely be affected. You guys will also suffer heavy losses, right?” Joyce asked.

Harry had expected that.

“Don’t you care about Hayden?” Joyce added, “Will he still be able to have a peaceful l

    “Alright. I will help you this time. I leave the outcome to fate,” Harry said. Joyce’s expression brightened immediately. Things would get better as long as Harry was willing to help. “We won’t forget your favor. We’ll let you get the bigger share in our shared projects.” Harry didn’t have the slightest joy after listening to Joyce’s words. His happiness had completely died in Summer’s accident.-Summer didn’t expect Harry to ask her for a meet-up. They met in a private room in a club in Lanford. She heard a buzz as soon as she stepped into the room. Harry saw her looking puzzled and explained, “I blocked the functions of the electronic devices that are with you. They’ll return to normal once you leave the room. I don’t want our conversation to be recorded.” “What? You want to talk about something illegal with me?” Summer mocked. The woman that Harry once loved was looking at him with hatred. There was a big gap between them. “I already know what happened back then. It’s your

    “All you have to do is admit that your mental illness is cured, move back to the Hope residence, and pretend that you’re on good terms with them,” Harry said. “Harry, you want me to lie to the public even after you know that I was set up by Joyce and the others? You want me to thank them for not giving me up and act like we’re a happy family?” Harry frowned at her sarcasm. “Things have already happened, and you should think about your future. Do you think that you can rely on the Valors for the rest of your life?” “So, you’re the type that can’t differentiate between good and evil. You make it sound like nothing. Would you be able to do what you said if someone locked you up in a psychiatric hospital during your best years?” Summer scoffed. “What do you want?” Harry asked coldly.“I want the truth to be revealed to the public and let them get the punishment that they deserve!” Summer exclaimed. “Do you know how it felt to be under the hospital's forced treatment? Do you know what

    Harry’s breath hitched. He had a hunch about what Summer was going to say. “She asked someone to chop off my finger, and she flushed my finger together with the ring into the toilet. Then, she told me that I won’t have the chance to wear any wedding rings ever again,” she smirked. Harry felt suffocated after knowing what happened to Summer’s finger. He was filled with anger and guilt. He was angry at Joyce’s actions toward her sister, and he was guilty that he didn’t save her when he had the chance. He could have found something suspicious if he had tried to find out about Summer’s encounter. Still, he had deliberately told everyone not to mention anything about her in front of him.Even though Harry was angry at Summer’s betrayal, he didn’t want any of this to happen to her. Summer waved her hand in front of Harry’s face to let him get a clear view. “Do you still think that I should admit that I’m mentally ill and that Joyce did everything to cure me? Do you still want me to cla

    Joyce looked away and forced herself to repeat. “I had nothing to do with her finger!” Harry glared daggers at Joyce, and he grabbed her hand the next moment. He held her middle finger up. Joyce realized what Harry planned to do. She cried out loudly, “Stop it, Harry! I’m your wife! Why would you believe the woman who betrayed you instead of me?!” Crack! Joyce wailed in pain. Harry had broken her middle finger. “Does it hurt?” Harry asked nonchalantly.Joyce covered her right hand and roared, “Why?! I’m your wife, and Summer’s the one who betrayed you! Why did you break my finger for her?!” “Yes, she did betray me, but it doesn't mean you can chop off her finger like that. The pain you’re feeling now is nothing compared to her pain. Do you think I would have let you keep your fingers now if you weren't my wife?” Joyce trembled. She realized that Harry had never forgotten Summer at all.“So, you believe everything she said? I’m the one who’s deeply in love with you!” “Do you th

    “Didn’t you say that Harry would help us out? What did he do for us?!” Donald was irritated. Joyce had an ugly expression. “It was all Summer’s doing!” “You’re such a useless piece of trash! You still can’t get Harry to love you even after all these years!” Donald complained. Joyce was embarrassed. “My in-laws will be back with Hayden in a couple of days. I’ll get them to help if Harry still doesn’t make a move. The Scotts can’t afford to lose their reputation over a criminal daughter-in-law.” “Are you sure that they’ll help?” Lana asked uneasily. “You guys know how much they like Hayden. Hayden is the only heir of the Scotts now,” Joyce said. Lana felt a little assured by her words. Just then, a servant ran toward them. “Oh, no! There are police outside, saying that they want to take you all back for questioning.”The three of them were startled. A police officer then entered the house and called out their names before they could react. “We now suspect that the three of you a

    "No, it's not me," Serenity clarified. "Someone left a document outside my hotel room and rang the doorbell. The document described in detail how you lost your finger and listed the names of the people present at that time."Summer was taken aback. "Who left the document?""I'm not sure," Serenity replied. "That person was wearing a cap and a thick coat. After making sure from afar that I saw the document, the person quickly left. They deliberately avoided the surveillance cameras and got into a car outside the hotel. The license plate on the car was fake, so we couldn't trace it," Serenity explained.She only discovered all that by watching the surveillance footage afterwards."Who could it be?" Summer wondered."Whoever it was, they must have given me the document either to help you or to get back at Joyce," Serenity speculated.Help her? Besides Serenity and Clara, who would want to help her?The Gerhold family?But the Gerhold family wouldn't do that. Even though they now k

    She appeared gentle and polite, but there was a hint of slyness in her eyes."Alright, let's talk here then," Serenity said openly, wanting to see what the other person was up to.Snow hesitated, eyeing the two bodyguards next to Serenity. "I would prefer to speak to you in private, Mrs. Valor. Can we find a more secluded place to talk?""That might be difficult since my husband has arranged for a lot of people to protect me. Even if we go elsewhere, they'll still remain by my side, and they'll still overhear the conversation," Serenity said.A flicker of annoyance showed in Snow's eyes, but she quickly masked it and put on a sad expression. "It's like this. I hope you can end Lucas' feelings for you once and for all, Mrs. Valor. You have a happy family now, with children. I'm sure you wouldn't want Lucas to suffer, right?"Snow continued with a self-deprecating tone, "I know that, for Lucas, rather than a personal assistant, I'm just a substitute for you. But I genuinely love Luc

    Serenity got into her car. Snow gritted her teeth and drove back home fuming. Upon opening the door, Snow was surprised to find Lucas sitting on the couch."Lucas!" Snow's face lit up with surprise. "What are you doing here? If you wanted to see me, you could have just called. I could have gone to you."However, Lucas simply stared at Snow coldly. His gaze made Snow uneasy. It was different from his usual indifferent gaze."What's wrong?" she asked tentatively."Did you go see Serenity today?" Lucas asked."How do you know?" Snow blurted out, unintentionally admitting it. She then asked hesitantly, "Did Serenity tell you?""No, Serenity did nothing. Why did you go see her? What did you say to her?" Lucas questioned.If Yelena Gerhold hadn't called him and told him that she saw Snow talking to Serenity on the roadside, he wouldn't have found out.He had some business collaborations with Yelena, and sometimes, he would bring Snow along to their meetings.Therefore, Yelena coul

    “……” 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! The

    "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
