Of course, she knew that Victor threw her at Sea City, but in a sense, they were just plotting against each other.She was the real culprit behind the scenes.So, she was scared. She was really afraid. If Victor could not inherit the position of the head of the family and if Rose succeeded, then she and the people behind mastermind would have greater bargaining chips.By then, Jasper would really be alone and helpless in Sea City."If it's just a contract and a cooperation agreement, then there are still people in Sea City who meet the conditions for cooperation. Can Yadon's Ocean Shipyard Corporation also support Victor?" Jasper said nervously. He felt the person in his arms trembling.He admitted he had lost his memories, but he had never seen Summer like this.Even in his memory, Summer was just a timid little fool with amnesia."Mr. Miller, it's too late now." The lawyer shook his head."Wait..." Outside the door, Victor's subordinates rushed in. "Young Master, there’s some
“Impossible? Do you think that I don’t know that you bribed my study partner to poison me, or the fact that used the same method to bribe James’ study partner and let me harm James?” Victor smiled. He was worrying for Ivan and wanted to end this as soon as possible. “Lawyer, so, it seems like I am the head of the family now, right?”The elders were frightened and dazed. They were speechless for quite some time. How could this be...?“Didn’t you say…?” A few of them blamed Rose. Wasn't she the one who said that her plan was perfect?“Shut up!” Rose yelled coldly. Her expression was gloomy.She had planned this for so many years and even got pregnant for ten months and gave birth to the IVF baby, Ben! The suffering she had gone through for so many years turned into a gift for Victor in the end?She could not accept this!“What? You still have some hidden trick?” Summer registered what had happened. She smiled and asked. “Summer, do you think that I can’t do anything to all of y
What Alaric sent him was a congratulatory gift!Alaric had prepared the gift so quickly. This meant that he knew this would happen. Both Alaric and his father were as cunning as foxes.Perhaps that was the reason both of them fought for their entire lives in the business world in Country M. [Victor, the position of the head of family belongs to you. From the beginning, your father wanted you to succeed him and become the head of the family. But he was worried that you would walk down his footsteps. He did not want to become the head of family at all. If it weren’t because the people in his generation were too vicious and he ended up being the only one who survived, he would not want to carry the burden of the family. You don’t understand him. He didn’t want to see you because he had reasons that tormented him.]Alaric left some messages to Victor, and the words showed how resigned he felt.Victor was not sure why Alaric knew his father’s thoughts so well. Both his father and Al
“Impossible!” Jasper had decided to be unreasonable. He would never divorce Summer, or at least, he would never divorce Summer before he gained back his memories. “Why? If you don’t like me, why are you keeping me by your side?” He did not like her and did not trust her. “I don’t know how many memories I lost and how you were like in my previous memories. But I won’t be divorcing you now no matter what. I like you...” After thinking for a while, Jasper still hugged her in his arms.The woman in his arms was his wife. He would not be embarrassing himself even if he said that. Summer had been trembling in anger, but now, her body slowly stiffened. She was shocked for some time, and her fingers were numb. “What did you say?” “I like you. I like the Little Fool who lost her memories. I’m only treating Victoria this way because of the childhood memories I have. I don’t have a lot of feelings for her, and I saved her to repay her kindness so that I’ll not owe her anything.” Jasper t
“Come back to Sea City and collect the divorce certificate if you have time!” Jasper felt a little angry. He shouted in anger after seeing Summer get down from the car without looking back.Summer walked dejectedly. She almost tripped when she heard Jasper’s words. “I will...”It was over. It was time to wake up from the sweet dream. “Jasper, take good care of Little Chestnut.”Jasper clenched his hands. After Summer went out of the car, he kicked the car door. Damn it!What should he do?Time flew. Summer was relieved when she learned that Jasper had gone back to Sea City. Ben dared not go home or let Rose find him. Summer knew that before Ben became an adult, he needed to be protected. “Be obedient and go back to Sea City with Victor. Take good care of Little Chestnut for me.” Summer patted Ben’s head. She took the chance, when Victor took Ivan away, to have Ben go back to Sea City as well. “Be obedient, don’t argue with Victor during the journey for your pride. You’
Victor frowned slightly. He wound down the car window and stared at Ace for a long time. “Who is that man?”“A friend.” Summer averted her gaze for a moment, turned, and left. “What is it? Did he catch your fancy?” After seeing Victor staring at Ace, Ivan bared his teeth and asked. “Yup, he caught my fancy. What of it? You want to get his number for me?” Victor smirked. He always tried to tease others. The atmosphere in the car was a little delicate. Ben said relaxingly, “He’s Benjamin’s classmate. He’s a genius in psychology and surgery.”“Ah, he’s a genius. I like geniuses.” Victor narrowed his eyes, and the atmosphere became strange. “You said that someone saved you when you were crashed into by a car that day? And when you woke up, you were already at the manor of the Ross family, right?” Victor turned and looked at Ivan.Ivan was not sure why Victor suddenly changed the topic of conversation and was still jealous that Victor looked at another man. “Yeah.”“Do you still
Summer was shocked. Was Jasper mad? How could he investigate Ace?“He did not just investigate me but also our relationship. Take a guess... Can it be that Jasper already knows about what we have planned?” Ace asked, smiling as he narrowed his eyes.Summer was dazed. It was impossible, unless Ace wanted Jasper to find out. “He will not find out. There are only a few people aside from you and me who know about this.”Summer looked at Ace nervously. Not even Benjamin knew about the details. “Sum, when we decided to make this move, it was because I want you to get what you want. I wanted you to be happy, isn’t it?” Ace looked straight at Summer. “But now, you seem to be unsatisfied with what you wanted.”Summer looked at the vegetables on her plate. She clenched the fork with her numb fingers. Yes... At first, she wanted to take over the body, and now she regretted it. She wanted to stay beside Jasper. “Are you afraid that he will find out the truth?” Ace asked again. Summer p
Jasper clenched his hands tightly. “I’m beginning to really be unable to figure out Summer’s real thoughts. If she were being threatened and as long as she’s willing to… I don't believe that Ace can really snatch Summer away from me!”Benjamin looked at Jasper before he shook his head. “Jasper, he already took Summer away from you.”Jasper was stunned. He raised his hands and grabbed Benjamin’s collar. “So what did you hide from me while I was amnesiac! What sort of feelings does Ace have for Summer?!”Ben said that Ace had a closer relationship with Summer than how family members would. Ace's gaze was very gentle when he looked at Summer, which was totally opposite when he looked at other people.Jasper was still worried. ‘What if Ace likes Summer…?’“Ace is a person who seeks perfect souls that are compatible with him. He’s not interested in Summer's body. Instead, he’s interested in the soul in her body.” Benjamin did not know how to explain it to Jasper.“Chairman Miller!” Ou
“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.
