Even though Benjamin conducted business with Miller Corporation, he did not have a lot of knowledge regarding Jasper Miller. He only knew that he was young, talented, and ruthless. He was a rare talent in the world of business. Sum had stayed with him during the one year she suffered from amnesia, so it was unavoidable that she would need to examine her feelings regarding the entire situation. “Sum, remember what I said. Just follow your heart.”Summer choked up and nodded vigorously. “During the past year, Samson nearly died a few times while searching for you. After he escaped death, he finally got you back. He can be considered lucky because of it.” Her mother touched her face with her heart aching. “My dear Sum, you’ve become thinner.”“Samson, he…”“In order to investigate the matter of your kidnapping, there were a few times when he nearly…” Summer’s mother could not continue. In the beginning, they had tried to persuade him to give up, but he refused to listen. By the looks o
Victoria knew what she had to do. ‘Summer Plath, don’t go resenting me for this.’She had called the person who wanted to kill Summer in the past due to the great hatred in her heart. Why did that woman have to exist?Why was she still not dead?!*****The next morning, Summer was sent into the operating theatre of Sea City Hospital. “Are you nervous?”With Adrian around, Summer felt much more at ease than she would have with some other surgian. “Will I die?” Summer asked before the surgery. Adrian smiled and shook his head. “I won’t let you have what you desire.”Summer smiled as well. She was careless, and he had discovered her thoughts.Since the steel needle was close to her upper limb, the anesthetist had to search for a blood vessel on her leg to administer general anesthesia on her. “You’re too thin. It’s difficult to find your blood vessel. You’re causing my heart to ache for you just by looking at you,” the anesthetist grumbled softly. “There are plenty of people who fe
Jasper was holding a towel in hand to wipe Summer’s hands when he heard her voice. His body froze, and his heart ached greatly. He suddenly experienced just how much she had to have hurt when he held her and called out for Victoria. During that one year, Summer had truly loved him. And he refused to believe that she would stop loving him after she recovered her memories. That was impossible. He would treat her well, as long as she gave him another chance. He knew that he made a mistake, and it was a very grave mistake. Summer slept for a full day and night. Everything about her was normal, but she showed no signs of waking up. “Adrian, why isn’t Sum waking up?”“You’ve asked me that one thousand times already! Don’t you get sick of it? Everything is normal. The surgery used up a lot of her physical strength, and she still has a blood clot in her brain...”Adrian suddenly wanted to grumble at Jasper. In fact, he often thought about why he had not been mindful of Summer when he s
Thank goodness Jasper had managed to dodge in time, so the wound was not deep…He pressed down on his wound, and with a dark look on his face, he brought out his phone to call his assistant. “Chase after him and get to the bottom of this!”How dare they try to touch what belonged to him right under his eyes?! They had to be sick of living!“Water…” Summer was still deep in sleep, and in her dream, she cried out for water. Jasper endured his pain and walked to the bed so that he could pour water for Summer. He carefully placed the cup by her lips. The effects of the anesthetics were not over yet, so Summer could not drink water on her own. A drop of blood fell on the floor, but Jasper showed no intention of getting his wound stitched and dressed. If he left, who would take care of Summer?His complexion turned paler, and the hand holding the cup trembled violently. Jasper hesitated for a moment before he decided to drink a mouthful, seize Summer’s chin, and kiss her. *****“What e
“Did you manage to find out what was in the needle?” Jasper was still absorbed in what had happened at night. “Summer woke up.”Jasper sat up and tried to get out of the bed. He did not even care that he was a patient. “I came here to tell you that my patient is currently very weak. Please don’t cause her any stress.” Adrian raised his hand and pushed Jasper back on the bed. “Also, I got the results of the components in the needle. It’s barbiturate.”Jasper frowned. He did not quite understand the medical term.“Let me put it this way. If this drug is injected into a vein, in a few seconds, the person loses consciousness. Then, their heart stops beating, and they stop breathing. Soon after, they just die,” Adrian sighed. Just what sort of dangerous person did the little rabbit offend?“Here. There’s this too. It’s the steel needle extracted from Summer’s body. If you have time, send it to the apple of your eye. See whether she likes it.” He brought out a bloody steel needle in a pl
It was only at that moment that Melody released a sigh of relief. Satisfied with what she had heard, she left with her handbag.She did not even care about her son’s injuries and whether he could survive. “Chairman Miller… the madam is just worried about you…” the assistant said while trembling in fear. “Get lost!” Jasper was in a bad mood, and he growled instead of speaking.“Chairman Miller…” The assistant immediately decided on leaving, but when he reached the entrance, he remembered something. “Should we hand the cell phone and the voice recordings to the police? Even if that person doesn’t confess, we can still have Miss Dawn be judged by the law through these voice recordings.”Jasper was holding the phone, and his hand froze for a moment. He stayed still for a long time. “There’s no need for that…”No matter what, Victoria had saved him before. He should give her a chance. “Call Victoria. Tell her that I’m asking her out for dinner at Pearl Restaurant.”“But your injuries…”“
Samson cast Irene a cold glance. His icy blue eyes shone with a very clear warning look. “Then what exactly did you mean, Miss Hamilton?”The elevator door opened, and Samson looked at the time again. It should be around 22:00 at Country M right now. Summer was a night owl, so she was definitely not asleep yet. Irene chased after Samson. “Chairman Ardly, I just want to eat with you.” “My apologies, but I don’t have the time.” Once Samson walked out of his company, he went straight to his car. Irene failed to achieve what she wanted, and she became even more frustrated. She had taken a fancy to this man, and she refused to believe that there was a man in the world that she could not manage to get in her grasp!“Miss, I found it. Chairman Ardly’s fiancée is Summer Plath, the eldest daughter of the chairman of DR Holdings.”Her assistant caught up to her while feeling a little nervous. His lady’s competitor came from a rather powerful and rich family.“The Plath family?” Irene was st
“Jasper…”Victoria walked out of the washroom nervously. She did not quite understand what Jasper meant by this. “Victoria, I will not marry you, and you know the reason behind it. I saw the video of you dragging Summer into the water at Princecourt Hotel through the CCTV. No matter what, the child in Summer’s belly was mine, and you should understand my temper very well.”The air instantly turned so cold that it was practically at freezing point. In her panic, Victoria took a step forward and fell in front of Jasper. “Jasper… I-It’s not what you think. No, I admit that I pulled Summer, but I was… I just hated the fact that she caused me to be unable to bear any children…”Victoria was still trying to defend herself. For the first time ever, Jasper thought that there was no hope for Victoria anymore.“Victoria, you recognized Summer when I proposed to you at the mall. You knew that she’s the eldest daughter of the Plaths, but you refused to tell me because she had lost her memories.”
“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.
