“I...” Elly said nervously She did not dare to look into Benjamin’s eyes. She knew that he disliked her and had never considered her his sister. It was like that in the past, and it was the same now.Since the start, Benjamin only admitted to having one sister, which was Summer. Elly knew that well. “The ambulance is about to come. He will be fine.” Elly glanced at Aaron and told Benjamin to calm down. “Big Brother... Mr. Miller and James want to meet you. If you trust me, Aaron will be fine. It’s best that you follow me...” Elly said courteously. Although she was on James’ orders to take Benjamin away, she bore no ill will towards him. “I want to make sure that he’s fine. After ensuring that he is safe, I will follow you...” Benjamin said softly and hugged Aaron tighter. He was incredibly nervous. If it were not because he had a fit of disobedience and insisted on going to the hospital, it would have been impossible for those people to target him while he was on the way, and Aar
The assistant was stunned. He did not say anything but lowered his head. “I was immature and rebellious when I was young. I felt that my father did not love me because I often saw him secretly take out Benjamin’s photo and become absent-minded while looking at it. We were both his sons, but no matter how hard I tried or how well I performed, my achievements never seemed to catch his eye.” Jasper smiled bitterly. “But later on, I learned that just because I stayed beside him, I was lucky enough to have a happy family. While Benjamin... had nothing.”“I’m sorry, Young Master. I was looking at this with a spiteful heart,” the assistant said in a low voice. He could have gone to save Benjamin tonight, but he still suspected him. So he wanted to see if those people really intended to kill Benjamin. “ I wish he took over Miller Corporation.” Jasper looked down. Right now, Benjamin was the one who did not want the company. The assistant hesitated for a long time before he said, “Those who
“When I was kidnapped, no one knew what I had experienced, and they did not care about it, because I bore everything for her. I was kidnapped, threatened, and beaten. At that time, I was thinking, it would be great if I could occupy this body completely and take over as the primary identity someday. Why is she the beloved daughter of the Plath family while I have to endure all this? I was thinking... as long as I take over, everything will be mine.”Summer smiled. There was bitterness in her heart. “I am completely different from her. Whatever she likes, I hate it. And she never showed any interest in what I like and am good at. In truth, we have always hated each other. However, when I was about to take over, I lost my memories.”Jasper listened quietly. The little fool he loved hadn’t had any memories in her head. Her mind was as pure as that of a child.But after she regained her memories, he felt his heart ache for her.“Summer had Samson, Benjamin, and many people who loved and pr
He wanted to give Jasper one last test. If he truly loved “Summer” without caring about those rumors and the baby in her stomach, he would give up completely.“You’re not here to bring her back?” Jasper asked Summer to wait for him in the living room before he strode forward to follow Samson. “You must know that I have already announced the marriage between Summer and I to others. If you keep her, both of your relationships must be kept in secret. She can never be revealed as your lover,” Samson said coldly and looked at Jasper. “Do you think she could bear with such suffering?”“Why should we keep it as a secret relationship? I can give her whatever she wants. I WILL give her status!” Jasper frowned. He would not let Summer suffer through this sort of thing with him. “Also, the woman who married you is called Naomi. But she is dead now. The one who is alive is Summer.” Samson smirked. Jasper never did give too much consideration into things. “Don’t think that this is a simple matte
“You have to understand that once you have nothing, I will definitely show no mercy.” Samson smiled before he moved back. “We never had any sort of friendly relationship between us. You can’t be expecting me to spare you, right?”Both of them were mortal enemies. From the moment they went to school, they found each other to be eyesores.“It’s fine, you can try,” Jasper said faintly. Even if he had nothing, he was confident that he could protect his lover. “You’re… not going to chase me away anymore?” Summer hid behind the door to the living room nervously, and she cast a glance at Jasper.She heard the conversation between Jasper and Samson, and she had been considering too few things.Indeed, her current identity was Summer, not Naomi. She could not be with Jasper without any fear whatsoever. If Jasper insisted on being with her, he had to give up on too many things. Jasper would not gain anything from this. “Ah!” Jasper suddenly hugged her tightly, and Summer was so shocked that
Even blood related siblings had to make sure that financial matters were settled clearly. If he did not stab Aaron with a tranquilizer to return the favor, he would not be Adrian.“Protect yourself well over this period of time. Victor is a lunatic.” Benjamin said nothing else. He just heard that James had kept Adrian by his side. No matter how much of a lunatic Victor was, it was impossible for him to do anything right under James’ nose. After all, the siblings were about the same in standard. “Don’t worry.” Adrian nodded. “I heard that you’re staying with James. Stay beside him for the time being. Even if he’s using you to play the game, it’s still much better than being in danger while you’re alone. You should know that Jasper allegedly can’t take care of too many things right now,” Benjamin was still a little worried. But he was not worried about Adrian. Instead, he was worried about Aaron.Aaron was rather attentive to this brother of his. If anything happened to Adrian, Aaron
“Adrian is too close with Jasper.” James shrugged. But it was very easy for people to misunderstand that relationship. “Besides, Jasper’s private life is too disorderly, and the rumors about his relationships are too negative. He has multiple girlfriends, but they never stay too long by his side. He even cast Victoria to the side and is no longer attentive to her. And she’s someone he proposed to before…”“He’s seriously…” Benjamin rubbed the centre of his eyebrows, feeling troubled. Jasper was just trouble. “You were growing up in Country M since you were young, and the Ross family’s thought processes are seriously very harmful… You might not know this well, but Sea Citizens care about friendships a lot, and it’s especially so for people like Jasper.”“I don’t care whether Adrian is just friends with Jasper or whether it’s something else. It’s enough as long as Adrian is important enough to Jasper.” James’ eyes turned dark. He did not want to talk about Adrian anymore. “I think tha
“Also, there isn’t just one person targeting you right now. There are a few lunatics who are targeting you simultaneously, and there is even one lunatic who has gone after my life multiple times for you.” Benjamin pointed at Jasper as a warning. He hoped that Jasper could understand the meaning behind his words. “Sum is my younger sister. We’re currently enemies. At that time, if you can’t protect her, don’t blame me for taking her away.”Jasper said nothing. If Summer wanted his life, he would give it to her. Meanwhile, in Sea City’s newspapers…[Jasper Miller has announced that he has removed himself from Miller Corporation, and he has also publicly admitted that he will no longer interfere with all matters related to Miller Corporation.][The former blessed son of God has nothing now. Will Jasper Miller be able to rise to power again?]“He’s playing the fool!” In the Miller family’s main mansion, Marvin threw the magazine angrily on the table. Right now, all the newspapers in Sea
“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. In the study...Edward’s father asked Hanna to go into the room. His expression was dreary. “Are you Venus’ daughter?”“Do you still remember my mother?” Hanna smiled and kept a stra
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. Everyone was busy helping Jasper and Summer with their wedding.“Look at the dresses and gowns for my grandchildren.
