Author: March
“Coming right up!”

The delicacies in the alley in the old town were mainly the signature food of Mountain City. They were run by small businessmen who came to work in Mountain City.

Summer was lost in her thoughts as she grabbed the warm cup of hot chocolate.

Not far away from the alley in the old town…

“Summer is here.”

Rose smiled and signaled the taxi driver to stop. “I’ll go there myself. You all wait here.”

Not far from the car, the police officers were already eyeing them from a police car.

“The target has emerged!”

“Casper, Summer made a report. She said that her mother was abducted and she received a threatening phone call. So far, this woman is our suspect.”

Casper nodded. “Keep an eye on her. Summer must not get hurt.”

“The target is going alone. She’s probably going to negotiate with Summer.”

“Hungry?” Rose sat in front of Summer at the churro shop. She smiled as she watched Summer enjoying her food.

Summer was shocked. “Aunt Rose, it’s really you! I though

    “Rose was born in Sea City. The police had to look into the matter regardless if her threatening phone call was real.” “But will the person working behind her come and bail her out?”“It doesn’t matter who bails her out. Clues will somehow be revealed. I just have to trace them and seize the culprit.”Casper was stunned for a moment. He then nodded. ‘How did I not think of that…’As long as someone bailed Rose out, even if they were lawyers, they would reveal some clues. It was better to find clues along the way than to stand around and wait.“Mrs. Plath has been taken to the hospital. She’s fine,” Casper said as he tried to start a conversation. “Officer Synder, aren’t you from Mountain City Police Station? Don’t you have cases to investigate over there?” Summer took a deep breath, changing the topic. She did not want Casper to be involved in this matter too much. “They’re short-handed here, so I’m transferred here temporarily,” Casper sighed. He then spoke again, “Ms. P

    “Alright.”Azula sat by the french window in Oreford Book Cafe. She drank a cup of coffee as she looked through a book. “This book is interesting.”“Azula, did Yadon really come and pick me up yesterday? I was so dizzy, and I’m still feeling a little dizzy now,” Lisa whispered. She sighed, “It’s true that I spent the night at Yadon’s place, but he was nowhere to be found the next morning. I wonder where he went.” “Please don’t be angry if I tell you.” Azula sighed, placing the book on the table. “Tell me.” Lisa clenched her hands tightly. “Yadon went to look for Natalie. Look.” Azula opened up the entertainment news. The headline showed a mysterious man, who was suspected of having an argument with Natalie. The man did not look like the chairman of Coleman Corporation from the back.‘Ah, the triangle relationship between Natalie, Lisa, and Yadon. ‘Natalie versus Lisa.’Lisa’s eyes twitched and her hands clenched tightly. “Lisa, you do love Yadon, right?” Azula whispered

    Back then, Alaric visited Sea City for the first time to cooperate with Miller Corporation on a project, a collaboration that was related to the import and export of medical equipment and medicinal drugs. Alaric was only in his twenties at that time. The fact that he alone could establish Plath Corporation in Country M spoke volumes of his capability. Marvin and Alaric had been good friends for a long time. They originally intended to work together to establish their careers. But after Valerie’s incident, they eventually lost touch with each other. “Your father was quite a player back then.” Marvin was silent for a long time before he gave a fair comment about Alaric. He was not trying to criticize him; it was just a statement. Summer listened quietly without saying a word. “The first person who knew Josse was your father.” At that time, Josse had just left his fishing village, and he was barely educated. His family’s money was mostly spent on his brother’s education to

    “Sir!” A man attacked Alaric. Josse jumped off the stage and anxiously checked the back of Alaric’s hand. Despite Alaric having dodged the attack, he still got a cut on his hand. “You’re injured!” “I’m fine.” Alaric’s eyes were cold and he gave off a dark aura. The man panicked for a moment and looked nervously at the bar security guard who had rushed over. “Wait, who’s this guy?” “Excuse me, Sir. This gentleman here has just bought this bar.” While the security guard was still looking puzzled, the owner of the bar rushed over. “Oh my, Mr. Plath. I am so sorry, Mr. Plath. I didn’t know you were here.” The owner was so frightened that his voice trembled a little. Alaric was not the only one there, standing next to him was Marvin. He could not afford to offend either of them in Sea City. “Someone hurt my friend. How are you going to handle this?” Marvin walked over with a smile and glanced at Alaric teasingly. “Good for you. You saved a damsel in distress, huh?” “Back of

    From that day onwards, Alaric had become the owner of that bar. He would visit the bar and listen to Josse singing almost every day, but not once did he take the initiative to speak to him. “You are patient indeed. I heard that someone from Universal had been scouting him. All diamonds will surely shine, no matter where they are. Are you sure you don’t want to make a move?” Marvin smiled a little and glanced at Alaric meaningfully. “There’s no rush. He’ll take the bait.” Alaric seemed confident. “You’re enjoying yourself in this little hunting game. I am worried that someday, someone will outsmart you and lead you by the nose.” Marvin shook his head. “That someone doesn't exist.” Alaric was extremely confident. Marvin smiled meaningfully. Someone would definitely outsmart him one day. “Sir, Mr. Josse has finished his performance and left.” His subordinate reported. “He didn’t have any intention to come talk to me at all?” Alaric frowned. Had he misjudged it this time? I

    “Until one day, your father found out Josse was married and already had a child. That child is Aaron.” Marvin spoke again after a moment of silence. “Josse and that woman did not register for a marriage certificate, but they were already considered married after the wedding was held in their hometown, not to mention that that woman gave birth to Josse’s child, yet he just abandoned them.” A chill ran down Summer’s spine. Josse was such a scumbag for doing things like that. “So, your dad chose to give up on him. He didn’t order anyone to ruin Josse’s career, but he withdrew all financial investment and support. As time passed, Josse’s fame fell away, so he tried everything he could to win Alaric back. He even went to Country M to see Alaric. That was also when he met your aunt Valerie.” When Marvin mentioned Valerie, there was still a faint sadness in his eyes, but sadness was the only emotion there. Summer knew that Marvin had moved on long ago. He had fallen in love with Jaspe

    At Sea City Hospital. “How is this possible?” Summer trembled and curled up in the corner. How was this possible? This was impossible. “No, this is not happening. You guys are lying to me.” Casper stood a short distance away. He did not dare try and get close to Summer, it pained him to see Summer like that. ‘Sum... Ms. Summer, the forensic report cannot be wrong, it is a suicide.” Seeing Summer shivering badly, Casper walked over to put his jacket over Summer and spoke in a low voice. “No, it can’t be...” Summer shivered and shook her head. Her body was tense. How was it possible, this was impossible! “Impossible!” Summer was having a meltdown. How was this possible? Her mother was still trying to fight her for the company’s shares just a few days ago, how could she possibly choose to commit suicide? She had clearly promised to transfer Alaric’s shares to her. Why would she commit suicide? What could possibly be her reason to kill herself? It was impossible! “This

    “Because that man used Mrs. Plath in order to threaten Alaric many times to force him to show up.” Jasper explained. Casper stared at Jasper with a dazed look. Mrs. Plath chose to kill herself so that she would not become Alaric’s weakness…At Princecourt Hotel...“That woman committed suicide. She is dead. Alaric will show up for sure.” Josse looked outside the window with a cold gaze and clenched his fists. “What? You’ve finally made up your mind to kill him?” a man asked coldly behind Josse. “You’ve imprisoned me for so many years and now, you finally released me. Isn’t it for today?” Josse stared coldly at the person behind him. “Besides using me, what else can you do?”“No matter what happens, you’re my brother.” That man shook his head and said, “Josse, it’s Alaric and Marvin who made you like this. You don’t hate them, but blame your brother?” Josse stared at that man coldly and clenched his fists. “Be obedient. Just go. Go and kill Alaric. If Alaric is dead, Sum

    “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.

    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.
