The emotions that Greg had suppressed since Ophelia’s accident broke out completely. He stood in the large living room and yelled, “I don’t care about anything, I don’t need reputation or status. I just want your mother. I just want her to live well. I’m willing even if she wants to divorce me.”When Greg said this, he broke down and covered his face with his hands and shed tears like a child even though he was a man in his fifties. “Dad…"Nora could not stand it anymore. She would cry if her father continued to talk like this.When the absurdity of youth fades away and one has gone through trying times and gained experience, external factors such as money and reputation are no longer important. What is important is the person by their side. Nora stepped forward to support Greg and sobbed as she comforted him, “Dad, please calm down first. Let Ryan think of a way.”After Greg finally calmed down a little, Nora helped him upstairs to rest. Harold stomped the floor hard with hi
He said it in a very pitiful manner. Silvia looked up at him from his arms and pretended to be fierce as she said, “You’ll have to listen to me from now on. You cannot do anything against my wishes!”Ryan’s smile gradually widened, and his eyes were full of indulgence. “Wow, you're so domineering.”“Well, I’m that domineering.”As Silvia spoke, she felt that her fierce look must be hilarious, so she laughed.As she laughed, tears fell from her eyes again. She then buried herself in his arms and hugged him tightly. She had never cared about his wealth. She loved the person that he was, so she did not care whether he lost Pierce Group or not. The two hugged each other quietly for a while. Just when they were about to return to the house, they saw Nora rushing out in panic and calling to him, “Ryan! Hurry! Dad suddenly passed out. We have to take him to the hospital quickly!”Nora was about to cry. Greg’s emotions had been fluctuating greatly. After Ryan and Julian came out to
Although Rowan’s tone was very determined and vicious, and he even mentioned the threat to Ophelia and Autumn’s lives when he called and spoke to Ryan over the phone, he was actually getting along with them rather harmoniously. In fact, Rowan did not want to get along with them at all, but the little girl was too innocent and kept pestering him, whereas Ophelia was also very easy-going and calm, so he simply could not bring himself to be cruel to them at all.Rowan ordered takeout for lunch. The little girl did not like the food because she thought that the food tasted bad. She pouted angrily and declared righteously, “My mama said that it’s best not to eat outside food! It’s not clean, and it’ll give you a stomachache!” Autumn was picky because growing up, she rarely ate outside food. In the past, Silvia would prepare three meals for her a day, and now, it was Ophelia who was taking care of her and cooking for her, which led to her diet preference. She inevitably could not get us
This feeling made him feel uncomfortable. After sitting like that for a long time, he picked up his coat and got up to leave. His subordinate told him that Greg had been hospitalized, so after driving aimlessly on the street for a long time, he finally drove to the hospital where Greg had been admitted to.Rowan did not enter the ward to visit Greg. He still had some self-awareness and knew that Greg would probably be even more ill if he went in to visit him at a time like this.He just stood outside and stared into the ward through the glass on the door for a while, and he only left when a nurse came to check the ward. Greg’s complexion did not look good at all, and his mental state was also very poor. His hospital bed had been raised, and Greg was leaning on the hospital bed as he looked out the window listlessly. He looked very haggard and old. It was at this moment that Rowan suddenly realized that Greg was already old. In his memory, Greg had always been young, and he h
She could not say that she insisted on not getting married in front of her father, so she used the excuse that she was still young to evade the topic.However, a certain man was a little unsettled. The only thing he could think of was what Greg had just said about many people introducing men to her, and that many of them were all young and promising!He seemed to have been ignoring this issue the whole time, thinking that she was still a young girl, but he did not expect that there were already people who were trying to introduce men to her. That’s right, she had completed her studies, and she had good qualities. She was also very well-behaved and had a charming personality; coupled with the Pierces’ family background, there must be many people who were interested in her and wanted to marry her!He suddenly felt a little anxious when he thought of this, but his mood improved a little when he heard her say that she was still young and was not in a hurry to get married.Nora stayed
Nevertheless, she did not know what to say now, much less explain what kind of mood she was in.Ryan looked at his mother, then he told her about Greg’s hospitalization.“He’s been hospitalized, and he has some heart issues. He fainted in a fit of rage. He’s really ill this time, and he’s not just pretending to be ill.”Ophelia finally asked, “How is he now?”Ryan told Ophelia about the doctor’s diagnosis, and Ophelia fell silent again without saying a word. Nora arrived later, and after seeing that her mother and niece were safe, she finally felt relieved.However, she remembered that she had another heavier task. She took out the divorce agreement signed by Greg and handed it to Ophelia. “Dad asked me to pass this to you.”Ophelia took it and saw that it was the divorce agreement that she had given to Greg. She turned to the back and saw Greg’s signature. Nora explained from the side, “Dad said that this incident made him think a lot. He said that you’re already very old, a
After Silvia came out of Mr. Sage’s office, she went back to her own office to work. Now that Ryan had already left his position as the chairman of Pierce Group, she would have to put in more effort at work.As for Ryan’s side, it was chaotic, as he had expected. The members of the board of directors were going mad because of his crazy decision.There were protests in the meeting room for a while.Everyone knew that Greg had another illegitimate son, but they never expected that Pierce Group would be handed over to him one day. No one knew that Rowan had forced Ryan to hand Pierce Group over to him, and they simply thought that Ryan and Greg had gone insane. However, Ryan had an absolute controlling stake, and those shares had been transferred to Rowan. Rowan was now the largest shareholder, so he had absolute power.Rowan had also come prepared; he brought several men who looked like executives with him to take over Pierce Group. They looked very imposing, and they forced thei
Ophelia thought that they were really suitable for each other because of their cold and warm personalities, which complemented each other. At the same time, complementary personalities can also subtly influence the other.Silvia was influenced by her son and became much calmer, while her son became much livelier after being influenced by Silvia. For example, her son made fun of her just now, and it would have been impossible for him to say such teasing words to her in the past. He used to be very serious all the time. However, this was what being a couple was, and this was what marriage and life was. It was inevitable for mutual influence and changes after two people had been together for many years.These changes might not be clear to outsiders. They might be small and trivial matters that were unnoticeable, but they were real.She smiled and replied to her son, “I’m not so selfish as to ask him for a divorce at a time like this.”Her children had told her all about Greg’s
