During the board of directors’ meeting at Miller Corporation...

“Mr. Miller, what is going on? Chairman Miller has not come to the company for some time. At first, we thought he was unwell, but why are you here in person?”

During Miller Corporation’s board of directors’ meeting, Marvin visited the company in person. Jasper had not gone to the company for some time. Even if the assistant was capable, he could not keep the restless senior employees in the company under control.

“Jasper is ill. The doctor advised him to recuperate, but we can’t just set aside company matters.” Marvin had put the burden of Miller Corporation on Jasper a long time ago. He knew that this might be unfair to him and that Jasper should have his own private life, but Jasper had already shouldered this burden, and there was no way for him to get rid of it anymore.

“Is Chairman Miller alright?” The cunning foxes from the board of directors pretended to be worried.

Marvin glanced at all the people present in the m

    Alaric was a little dazed as he remained seated. He stood up slowly after a long time had passed. “Your sister-in-law and I only have a daughter. Although we don't accompany her much, we tried our best... and gave everything to her.”Summer was their precious daughter whom they loved like a princess. “She went missing for a year. During that year, your sister-in-law and I took a lot of time before we finally managed to convince ourselves that Sum was gone, and that we needed to move on. But God decided to play a big joke on us. He gave Sum back to us, and then let the Devil take her away..”“Alaric—”Alaric waved his hand, not letting Marvin speak. He looked much older.“Alright, I stopped by because I was nearby. I'll excuse myself first,” Alaric said and left.His back looked bleak. Marvin's hands were a little stiff as he stood where he was, and his expression became darker gradually.“Mr. Miller, where are we going?” After leaving the company, his assistant asked, feeling a littl

    Jasper sat up slowly and coughed softly. “Sum is not a lunatic.”“If she’s not a lunatic, why would she take so much medicine before her surgery? Why would she commit suicide? Did you know that the Plaths are religious and believe that those who commit suicide will end up in hell?” Marvin was so angry that his face turned red with rage. If a woman did not even fear going to hell to die, what was she if not a lunatic? “She’s a lunatic! The entire family is filled with lunatics!”Valerie was a lunatic, and so was Summer. Just what sort of crimes had they committed that they had to provoke the two lunatics from the Plath family?!“Don’t say that about her…” Jasper said hoarsely and stood up slowly. ‘She’d rather go to hell than live?’Just how did he manage to drive a spoiled princess of a rich family crazy to such an extent?“It’s my fault. I was the one who forced her…”Slap!Marvin slapped Jasper across the face. “You vile spawn!”“It’s my fault…” And it had nothing to do with anyone

    The door of the rented house opened slowly, and the woman inside sounded slightly shocked. “It’s you?”Jasper’s vision was a little blurry. He raised his hand and hugged the woman in front of him. His voice quivered when he spoke. “Sum, you’re still here, still here…”“You drank too much,” Victoria said softly when she smelled the scent of alcohol on Jasper. She smiled a little and helped Jasper into the house. She had always been rather similar to Summer and this time had intentionally worn Summer’s clothes while waiting in the run-down rented house. By the looks of it, she was given the right idea by that woman. Jasper did indeed come here. “Sum… don’t leave me…” Jasper hugged Victoria tightly and pushed her beneath him. “Jasper, I won’t leave you.” Victoria’s heartbeat started increasing. As long as Jasper took her today, she would have a reason to get married to him. She had to marry into the Miller family. At that moment, Alaric and Samson were both suppressing the Dawn f

    In the rented house in West City…“Jasper, have some hangover soup. I made it personally.” Victoria carefully brought a bowl of hangover soup over in an imitation of Summer’s actions in the past.She had added some drugs to the hangover soup. As long as Jasper slept with her by mistake, she was confident that she could make him fall in love with her again. Jasper’s eyes turned a little dim in the dark. He raised his hand and held the hangover soup. In the past, after he drank alcohol, the little fool would tentatively bring him hangover soup. But now, no one was willing to treat him sincerely. “What a vast difference…” he said in a mocking tone and placed the hangover soup by the side. “What?” Victoria was stunned. Her body, which was very close to Jasper, stiffened a little. Was the hangover soup she made not good enough?Jasper looked up at Victoria a glance and exercised his fingers slowly. He had already given her countless chances, but she was eager to seek her own death

    Victoria bore the heat and bit the corner of her bottom lip. Then, with red-rimmed eyes, she laid down on the ground before Jasper. “I’m begging you, Jasper. Summer is already dead. Can’t you just let me stay with you? The Dawn family has already paid the price. I don’t need a status. I just want you to let me stay with you…”In fact, she could even give up on the title of being Jasper’s wife, because Melody did not like her and would definitely not allow her to marry into the Miller family. But as long as Jasper was willing to be her sugar daddy, she would definitely have a chance. “Are you asking for death?” Jasper’s gaze instantly turned fierce and terrifying. When he saw Victoria prostrating herself by his feet... The more he looked at it, the more he found it disgusting. Victoria was so scared that she quickly retreated. Jasper’s gaze was so terrifying that her entire body turned cold. “Jasper, since I saved you when you were young, can’t you at least let me stay by your side?

    “Miss Dawn…”When the assistant saw Victoria being led away by the rascals, his words died in his throat. When Chairman Miller was cold toward someone, he was truly frightening. Jasper held the ring in his hand tightly and whispered hoarsely, “Go to Balanced Mountain Cemetery.”Alaric’s act of not bringing Summer back to Country M was a blessing as well as a punishment. Ever since Summer’s surgery failed, Jasper shut himself up in West City’s mansion and just kept drinking. He looked a little pathetic and had become incredibly pale. *****At Balanced Mountain Cemetery…“Mr. Alaric has already left,” the assistant said softly. He signalled that Jasper could go and visit Miss Plath now. “She’s not dead.” Jasper walked to Summer’s tomb. “I know she’s not dead.”The assistant sighed. He knew that Jasper was just lying to himself. “She loves me so much. She’s so afraid that I’d cast her aside. How could she be willing to die?” Jasper mumbled to himself and leaned down to sweep away th

    “Young master, but it’s cold…” The assistant was a little worried. Samson said nothing. He stood in front of Summer’s tombstone quietly. When an avalanche happens, not a single snowflake is innocent. He made a mistake. If they were to search for the cause of everything, they would find that it was his inability to protect his lover. He did not manage to find Summer within the shortest amount of time, and he did not treasure her after he found her. *****Half a year later…“Cosmo Hamilton, your vixen of a mother gave birth to you, an androgynous vixen…”“And who are you calling a vixen?” the teenager asked with a cold glare. His skin was fair and very supple. It was even softer than a woman’s. “I’m talking about you, vixen. Don’t be too smug. I’d like to see just how long you and your half-dead sister can live.” Irene was so furious that her whole body trembled. What sort of bad luck did she have? Why did she have to run into the accursed illegitimate son? “Don’t go off thinking I

    “Sum!” Jasper ignored his assistant and chased after the teenager in a flustered manner. Instinctively, he held Naomi’s arm. “Sum, it’s really you! Sum…”Naomi was shocked. Alarmed, she looked at the man who held her arm. “Wh-who are you?”Jasper swiftly let go, and the light in his eyes faded away. “I’m sorry… I mistook you for someone else.”She was not Summer. “It’s fine.” Naomi sighed in relief. She thought that he was a bad person. Jasper was still unwilling to give up, however, and asked, “What’s your name?” Naomi looked around. This was the first time they met, so why was he asking for her name? “I… I’m Naomi Hamilton.”“Naomi Hamilton…” Jasper mumbled. Disappointment that he could not hide showed up on his face. “I’m sorry, I must have scared you.”Naomi quickly shook her head and turned around. She wanted to run away. All those who could attend the dinner at Grand Essence Yard were important people. “Naomi, could you do me a favor?” Jasper turned his head to the side and

    “I just find it hard to accept the truth. I don’t actually hate you…” After staying silent for a long time, Summer spoke again. “It was… too sudden for me. Give me some time to process this.”Mabel looked at her in shock and covered her mouth. “Sum…”Summer smiled at her and said, “Before I’m able to completely accept it, can I continue to call you Madam?”Mabel covered her mouth in panic and nodded vigorously. “Sure… Call me anything you want…”She actually never cared what Summer called her. It was good enough for her as long as she did not try to avoid her. “Can I hug you?” Summer took the initiative and stretched out her arms. Jasper had told Summer quite a lot about Mabel’s family. Her family was in a very scary place. They started falling into decadence in the later years. In fact, they started showing signs of having a lack of sons. Every leader of the family became anxious about who the next leader would be. They were so worried about who would be the head of the family

    Without realizing it, Summer had subconsciously returned to the Miller family’s mansion. “Wifey…” Jasper rushed over to her, wanting to give her a surprise. But instead, she did not react. Her face looked pale too. “Wifey?” He panicked and knelt in front of her. “Sum…”He truly panicked this time. ‘Did she find out about something that I did in the past and is now mad at me?’“Jasper, do you care who my mother is?” Summer asked softly. His heart stopped beating for a second. He felt both distressed and relieved. “No, I don’t. I only care about you.”“Why do I care so much, then…” Summer smiled and hugged him tightly. “I shouldn’t care about it too…”“Everyone has something that they don’t have control over. Sum, go easy on yourself.”Summer lay on top of him, picked up the glass of red wine on the table, and drank it.Jasper just realized that she smelled strongly of alcohol.“Sum…” He was a little worried. His heart ached for her too, but he also wanted to let her be.

    Mabel was cooking in the kitchen of the Plath family's mansion. “Madam, stop cooking. Come and eat,” Summer called out to her softly. Mabel smiled at Summer as she emerged with her favorite dish, cinnamon-spiced beef stroganoff.“Sum, let’s eat.” Mabel treated her really well. She helped her with the dishes.Summer was also already used to it. She no longer felt shy. It was natural to her already. Alaric looked at Summer and smiled plainly. “Sum, follow me.” After dinner was over, he asked her to go to the study room. “Is Jasper treating you well?” Alaric asked. “Yes, he’s treating me well.” She smiled. ‘If Jasper hadn't been busy and gone to Mountain City, he would be sticking around, bothering me.’“He pushed back too much work to get ready for the wedding. He wants to finish making work arrangements as soon as possible and go on a honeymoon with me.”“Sum, there’s something that I’ve been hiding from you. You’ve always wanted to know your biological mother, right?” A

    “Mr. Jasper Miller, do you take Summer Plath as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?”“I do,” Jasper said the two words confidently.‘I’m willing to take care of her and be by her side forever.‘I’ll always love her.‘She’ll always be my number one.’“Ms. Summer Plath, do you take Jasper Miller as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?”“… I do.”She purposely hesitated for a long time. Jasper was so scared that his face turned pale.After she chuckled and said ‘I do’, he gritted his teeth, pulled her into his embrace, and kissed her.He kissed Summer even before the officiant had asked him to kiss the bride.She was so embarrassed by the kiss that her ears turned red.“Jasper!”Jas

    Benjamin rolled his eyes at Aaron. “I belong to the bride's side. You should go to Jasper’s side.”“He doesn’t deserve it,” Aaron said stubbornly.Summer covered her mouth and chuckled. Everyone was immersed in the festive atmosphere of the wedding.  ‘Wouldn’t it be nice if we could stay this happy all the time?’“Hey, should we play a prank on the groom tomorrow? Let’s spice things up a little!” The bridesmaids started planning something.“You guys better be careful. You’re all pregnant. Don’t stir up too much chaos,” Summer said with a smile. “Seriously, it’s as they say: women always side with their husbands once they’re married. Look at you, you’re already siding with him.” A few of them teased Summer. Summer blushed so hard that she could not say anything in response. “Congratulations, Sum.”Hers and Jasper’s friends and relatives came one after another. All of them would be attending the wedding ceremony tomorrow afternoon. Edward would be there with Trent too.

    After all, this matter was related to Edward’s mother because of her meeting with Hanna’s mother.She sat on the sofa and thought a lot. Would they get a divorce? Would Edward’s father hate her because of this?Edward sat on the sofa and quietly accompanied his mother. “About this matter... Let's not tell Jen first. She may not be able to handle it.”Edward’s mother nodded, in tears. Then, she shook her head. “It was all my fault.”Edward’s father finally came out of the study. Edward looked at his father nervously. He was afraid that his father would blame his mother.“I... I really did not know anything about it. I just thought she lived a difficult life. I felt guilty, so I asked someone to send her some money. I did not know what happened to her after that!” Edward’s mother panicked and started crying. Edward’s father walked to her side. He did not blame her, but passed her a tissue. “Is this how you should behave in front of your son? Stop crying.”Edward’s mother sobb

    “I deserve it!”Nieva was brought away by the police. She should have expected that this was the consequence of offending Jasper.Jasper was busy with the wedding and he did not care much about her. Otherwise, she might have gone through worse than being arrested.…… At the Reeves family house in Mountain City...“Are you Hanna Delacruz? Let’s talk.”Edward’s father asked Hanna to go into the study, leaving Edward and his mother in the living room.“Edward, I already know about the issue concerning your father.”“Mom...” Edward felt a little guilty. “I know about everything.” Edward’s mother shook her head. “This matter is related to your father and me. This is what owed Hanna’s mother, but if you two have to pay for our mistakes. We...”“Mom, this is no one’s fault.” Edward shook his head.

    Samson nodded as he watched Rose leaving.Charlie ran out of the courtyard and stood still. He looked a little distressed.He was just a child...Perhaps it was because he had a mother who set up a scheme against him and used him as a chess piece that he was more mature than other children.In the past, he wanted to live. He wanted not just to live but to prevent his mother from setting up a scheme against him.He was still Rose’s son, even if Rose had used a despicable way to give birth to him.“Let’s go home...” Samson walked toward Charlie and rubbed his head.“Samson...” Charlie lifted his head, and his eyes were red.“From now on, you have not just me, but your friends, younger brothers and sisters, and many older brothers and sisters who love you.” Samson smiled at Charlie.Everyone could be redemption for other people, and other people could be their redemption, too.Charlie nodded and ran back to the Miller family’s mansion.Melody was carrying her grandchildren and

    Jasper did not care whether Thomas intended to hurt Summer or not.As long as Summer was shocked, he would not allow it.“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Do you know Aiden, who is always with Thomas?” He was Summer’s childhood friend. Summer did not know that Aiden was secretly protecting her. He was seriously injured and almost lost his life many times because of Summer.”Jasper frowned. “Since he did not want to let Summer know about this, why is he making Summer more distressed?”Jasper admired Aiden a lot because he never showed his love for Summer, but he had silently done many things for Summer.“Jasper, you can just confess if you’re scared. You don’t have to put yourself in a higher status.” Keane rolled his eyes.“Fine, you will go to Country T for a business trip.” Jasper was threatening Keane.“Jasper, I’m sorry, it’s my fault...”…...The wedding was getting closer.
