During that time, Ace did the same thing. He covered her eyes, held her hands, and opened that door with the key.That was the first time she could focus on anything and shifted her attention from her hot temper and depressed feelings.She started believing she was an independent identity that should not be attached to someone else or be suppressed.She started to want more, and she gained a clearer understanding of what she wanted. She wanted to control this body. She wanted to “cure” herself. She wanted everything Summer had, except Samson...That was because she was afraid of Samson. She was frightened of Samson for no reason. As long Samson was with Summer, the number of times she appeared would be greatly reduced. So, she was frightened and hated him. She tried in all ways to separate Summer and Samson. It was all so that she could take over this body and have her world. She started to dislike sharing with the primary identity and even hated “her” presence. Jealousy and
Summer took a deep breath, and her voice trembled a little. “Got it...”She could already guess what Jasper would choose. “This will be a little troublesome then.” Ace burst into laughter after seeing Summer hang up anxiously. “If Jasper chooses to help Rose Rogers, it will be harder for Victor to become the head of the family.”Summer raised her head and stared at Ace. She knew he would have solutions. “If I help you, what benefits can I get?” Ace was always very confident. He gave Summer the impression that he was omnipotent. Regardless of what matter it was, he could handle them well. “You don’t lack anything.” Summer shook her head. Ace was not looking for any sort of benefit.“Little Summer, you should learn how to joke. It would be best if you learn how to act cute and have a slightly worse temper. For example,.” Ace rubbed Summer’s head. “For example, you can beg me and ask me to help you.”Just like what she did in the past. “I beg you... please help me...” Summer
“All of you do not know Jasper at all.” James smiled, hugged Adrian tightly, and pulled him away. “Don’t worry about him. Instead of worrying about him, you guys should worry for me. If Rose successfully helps Ben become the head of the family with the help of Jasper, my life will be in danger too.”Adrian instantly froze in his footsteps and looked at James anxiously. “Gilbert, I’ll protect you...”James was stunned for a while and laughed in resignation. Then he brought Adrian into the car. “The best way to protect me is to protect yourself well.”“Am I that timid? I still want to discuss with my father to marry you. Once you’re married into the Seawind family, Rose will remove you as the candidate as the head of your family. After all, a girl who is married will become part of her husband’s family.” Adrian joked with a serious face despite his pale look. He was very nervous, but he wanted James to relax.James felt troubled and hugged Adrian in his arms tightly before he said, “
“I did not understand it either. Why would there be such a huge difference in a person?” James was one of the people who knew about Summer’s DID. But the secondary identity that he knew was so different from the secondary identity Adrian described. “Summer did not pick up the phone. She may have already known about Jasper’s choice. She said before... that if Jasper chooses to help Victoria this time, he will lose her.” After Summer crashed into Jasper’s car, she had been in an abnormal state.“But Jasper has made his choice. He has already signed that agreement Rose gave him with the status as the chairman of Miller Corporation.” James shook his head. As long as Rose brought that agreement back home, the likelihood of those old people in the family supporting Ben would increase.They only cared about their interests.At the international airport of Sea City...“Victor, are you sure that you want to go back? Aren’t you worried…?” Ivan was a little worried about Victor going back
“He is waiting for you to grow.” Ace looked into the distance, opened the car door, and asked her to get in. “Do you really think that Alaric doesn’t know that his daughter has split personality disorder?”Summer’s body instantly stiffened. She lowered her gaze and looked outside the window. Indeed, Alaric should know everything. “Ace, I thought I will be happy if I get everything. But I’m not. I feel like I’ve lost more than what I’ve obtained.” Summer felt troubled. She did not want things to happen this way. She truly regretted it. In the past, she planned all of this with Ace, including this scheme within the scheme, and put herself in it. She wanted to make “Summer” frightened and chose to escape so that she could take over this body and get closer to Jasper... She had planned all of this. But she did not expect she would lose her memories. And she had lost her memories for a year. No one would expect she would fall in love with Jasper when she lost her memories.
At the Ross family...“The ashes of the head of the family have been shed at sea according to his will. The head of the family has stated in his will that he wants no one to attend his funeral. There will be no funerals, and he is not to be buried in a grand manner.” The chamberlain of the Ross family spoke in English and stared coldly at Victor and Ben, who had come back for the funeral. James did not come back because the Ross family did not officially demand anyone to come back. Ben stood quietly, and he seemed to be swaying. Indifferently, he glanced at Rose, who stood beside him. In his disgust, he clenched his hands tightly. After his attempt to run away from the hotel previously, Rose had forcefully locked him in the room ,and with his current ability, he could not escape. Ben was not interested in becoming the head of the family at all. He just wanted someone who would protect him after someone else became the head of the family. Based on the current situation, Ros
“I’m the chairman of Plath Corporation. Is Jasper in the office?”The other side of the phone remained silent for some time. Then, the secretary’s voice was heard again. “Please wait for a moment.”“I’m here.” After a while, Jasper’s cold and slightly tired voice was heard. “Where are you?”“Chairman Miller, is Victoria okay?” Summer asked calmly.Jasper remained silent for a long time and said, “I’m asking where you are now?!”“Chairman Miller, I’m asking you to cancel the collaboration with Rose Rogers tomorrow morning. Just tell her that you signed the contract with her while threatened. It is not supported by the law of Sea City.” Summer’s heartbeat was very fast, but she kept forcing herself to calm down. “I’m asking you where are you now?” Jasper took a deep breath. He had been calling Summer since he left the old hospital area, but he could not get through to her phone. Even Benjamin did not know where she was. “Chairman Miller, if you can, please be determined until th
“Hey, James.”In the morning, the rays of the sun shone into the room. James should still be awake at this time.“Wah…”The baby’s crying voice was heard from the other side of the phone. Adrian was cooing at the baby patiently.Summer quickly covered her mouth and kept shivering. She could hear that. Those were Little Chestnut’s cries.“Sum, have you returned to Country M?” James had a slight headache, and his voice was hoarse. “Your baby is with me now. Elly is taking care of her during the day, and at night... Adrian takes care of her. He is quite attentive.”Summer covered her mouth and cried for a long time. She forced herself to calm down. “Thank you...”“Hey, are you okay?” James asked tentatively.“Do you still remember that I... wanted to ask you for a favor?” Summer asked nervously. “Go on,” James replied. This was considered payback for her kindness. “Before this, can I ask you a question first?” Summer looked outside the window and said with a low voice, “Why
“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.
