“Dr. Seawind, give me some time. I’ll try to receive surgery as soon as possible.”

“You better not wait for too long, or else even the Gods won’t be able to save you.” Adrian warned Summer.

“There’s actually another matter I want to talk to you about, Dr. Seawind.” Summer smiled and nodded.

This was the main reason she was here today. She only decided to get a checkup while she was at it.

“I heard that the Seawind family had always been involved in the biomedical industry. Bioeternal Pharmaceuticals belongs to your family, right?” Summer said with a smile, and her demeanor instantly transformed into that of a businesswoman.

Adrian narrowed his eyes as he gently tapped the table with his fingers. “Uh?”

“Bioeternal Pharmaceuticals has been pumping too much money into the research of HIV medicines and vaccines, to the point that the company is spending more than it is earning. Almost all the company’s funds have been put into this research, and there haven’t been any visible results

    After he finished speaking, the other party hung up.Summer hesitated for a moment and glanced at her cell phone. “Sir, can you change the destination to Speedy Bar?”At the bar.By the time Summer arrived, the person was still lying on the couch, and he was dead drunk.How much did that person drink…?“Sir?” Summer approached the man and asked.“Sum…” still lying on the couch, the person moaned.As she stood beside the man, Summer’s body went numb. There was a pang in her heart as she slowly sat down on the next couch.The man on the couch, who had drunk so much that he cut a sorry sight, was obviously none other than Jasper.It was not Summer’s first time seeing Jasper drunk. Most of the time, he would be calling out Victoria’s name when he was drunk.“Miss, do you know this person or not?” the bartender walked over and asked.“I… I don’t.” Summer stood up abruptly and wanted to leave immediately.“Summer!” Jasper was still drunk, and he called out to her subconsciously w

    Jasper lowered his gaze. There was no way that he could refute that.“Jasper, I’m covered with wounds, and I’m dripping blood all over. And all these are thanks to you.”“Summer…”“Oh, by the way, on my way here, the driver told me that you’re getting married to Victoria Dawn. You guys have even set a date for your wedding. Why are you still fooling around with another woman here?” Summer cut Jasper off and whipped out her cell phone. She then showed Jasper the screen.All the news headlines were about Victoria and Jasper’s engagement. They talked about how Jasper had successfully proposed to Victoria, and there was an interview where Victoria shyly admitted that they had already set a date for their wedding. “Chairman Miller, I wish you guys all the best, and I hope that the two of you will have a baby soon.”Summer forcefully withdrew her wrist and snorted coldly.“Summer! Why must you speak such harsh words to me?!” Jasper’s expression was a little dark. Summer knew very well

    “F*ck off and continue looking for her!”Upon arriving home in the afternoon, Samson realized that Summer was not around.He did not even take a moment’s rest before rushing out of the mansion to look for Summer. But he could not find her even after a long time.He was tremendously frightened.He was terrified.He had always thought that he was the kind of person who would never be afraid of everything. But right now, he was in fear.From the moment he met Summer, he had a weakness.His gaze became sharper and sharper, and he gritted his fists.Summer was his weakness, and he would never allow anyone to hurt her.As for those who were crazy enough to hurt her, he would never let them off the hook.“Young master, Miss Victoria Dawn has been standing outside the door for an hour. She looks like her body isn’t able to take it anymore, and she isn’t wearing much either. What if something bad happens…” Samson’s subordinate was a little worried.“I’ll wait for you to tell me about

    “Jasper Miller!”Samson raised his hand to punch Jasper. He then turned and anxiously pulled Summer into his embrace. “Are you okay?”“I’m okay.” Summer shook her head at Samson.“Mr. Ardly, how can you punch people for no reason? Jasper didn’t push her very hard either. She herself…” Victoria tried to defend Jasper, but her voice trailed off before she could finish speaking when she saw Samson’s cold gaze.Jasper was emanating an extremely dreary aura. He stood in front of Victoria to protect her so that Samson could not threaten her. “Samson Ardly, stop being such a bully!”“I should be the one telling you that!”Samson wanted to continue hitting Jasper, but Summer stopped him.“Vic is just here to beg you guys to let Dawn Corporation off the hook. Do you guys have to humiliate her like this?” Jasper said coldly.“Humiliate? Is this even considered humiliation? Next time, I should reduce the Dawn family to ashes and throw her into a whorehouse where she belongs!” Samson carri

    “It’s more unfair for you to ask me not to love you…” Samson’s voice was a little hoarse.As long as Summer was well and alive, he did not mind that Summer did not love him anymore.But could he really not mind? His heart was hurting a lot...“Samson, please give me some time, okay?” Summer turned, and she only continued after a long time, “I’m making a trip back to Country M. I’ll be spending a month there. Please wait for my return, okay?”Samson breathed a sigh of relief, and there were tears in his eyes.Once upon a time, Summer loved those eyes of Samson’s the most. They were deep and profound, but she could always see the starlight and her own reflection in them.“Sum, do you want to go home? Let me accompany you…”“Samson, I want to go back there alone. I want to spend some time in solitude and think long and hard about what happened for the past year. I’ll give a good thought to our relationship and future too… Can you give me some time?”Summer said anxiously as she ra

    “Sure…” Summer agreed. She should marry Samson, as she owed him this.But she did not deserve Samson.And she had no right to continue taking up space in his heart.“Sum?” Samson was a little emotional. He rolled over and pinned Summer down. “You agreed…”“Can you promise me one thing…” Summer said in a soft voice. The room was dimly-lit, and she did not dare to look straight into Samson’s eyes.“Of course.” Samson nodded. He was willing to fulfill every single one of Summer’s requests.“If… I’m just saying… If I die one day, scatter my ashes into the sea. Promise me not to be sad, and not to spend your life in solitude… If there’s a woman who loves you more than I do, you must… You must protect her well.” Summer’s fingers were trembling as she held Samson’s cheeks.She was close to tears.“That won’t happen. I won’t let you die. Even if you die, I’ll find you. We’ll meet each other again…”Samson tightened his arms around Summer anxiously. He would never allow her to die.“S

    The look in his eyes was like that of an eagle who had set its sight on its predator.“Jasper, do you know who’s back?” After Adrian left the hospital, he gave Jasper a call.“Who?” Jasper had stood outside the Ardly family’s mansion for the better part of the night. He was about to sleep when Adrian had called him.“Benjamin Miller!”Jasper had been starting to get tired, but he immediately became wide awake when he heard that name. He raised his hand to massage the space between his eyebrows. “Can you repeat that?”“Benjamin Miller, your stepbrother who was my senior brother back in Country M. He actually gave up the bright future he had there and returned to our country. Could it be that he had gone through some sort of trauma just like me? What do you think?” Adrian muttered in a soft voice.“Oh, by the way, he mentioned that his mother passed away a year ago. This guy is a bit strange. I’ve always thought that he had a bit of an Oedipus complex. He talks about his mother to

    “I’ve not decided yet.” Jasper furrowed his eyebrows. He was having a bit of a headache.He had been feeling torn lately.Yesterday, as he stood in front of Samson’s mansion for the better part of the night, he did not know what was going on in his mind either. He did not want to let Summer go… He subconsciously felt that Summer still belonged to him.Adrian raised his head to glance at Jasper and put down his glass of water. “I’m merely your friend, and I don’t have the right to meddle in your personal life. But as your friend, I have to tell you that I don’t like Victoria as a person. You can go ahead and think about what you want.”He did not want to meddle in Jasper’s personal life too much. In the past, he would not have cared even if Jasper were to die at the hands of a woman. But marriage was a lifetime commitment. And Victoria did not deserve Jasper.“Why can’t you stand Vic? You should have seen the way Summer and Samson Ardly humiliated her yesterday. They made her stand

    “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

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.

    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.
