The bodyguards immediately went to untie the rope. Once the man was free, he stood up, straightened his clothes, and stretched his muscles. Just as everyone thought he was about to say something, he suddenly lunged at Thaddeus with a dagger.It turned out he had been prepared all along. He intended to deceive Thaddeus into coming over, planning to end his life with Thaddeus.However, he underestimated the reaction speed of the bodyguards. Two bodyguards restrained him before he could get close to Thaddeus.The short dagger in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.His plan failed. At that moment, he broke down. His eyes turned bloodshot as he cursed loudly and struggled to move forward, kicking in the air trying to fight Thaddeus."Thaddeus, you killed my son! I won't let you off even if I die!" He shouted furiously.Thaddeus casually sat down on a clean chair. He looked relaxed, displaying the demeanor of a superior."Are you nut? Although I'm not a good person, I've

The incident with Amy had been a knot in his heart. There were countless times he dreamed about it and woke up drenched in sweat, haunted by images of himself kneeling before his grandfather to accept punishment, or kneeling at Jessamine's grave to confess.He deeply regretted drinking at Amy's place. Or else, that silly incident would not happen. After that incident, he never dared to drink too much at gatherings as long as women were present.Now, hearing from this man's mouth that all of that was fabricated by Amy and it was all her trap, that he had never touched that crazy woman. He was innocent and pure.Thaddeus felt relieved as if a fraction of his guilt had been lifted.When the man saw Thaddeus show no sign of furious and didn't care about being cheated on, he thought that Thaddeus was indeed not a normal man."Thaddeus, say something. How does it feel to be cheated on? Your woman begged for my favor countless times. Did you find it exciting?" The man asked.Thaddeus el

He would recognize that woman even if she turned to ashes. His child's death was still related to her. Why should her child be born safely?He wandered around Hajera for a few days yet was still unable to quell his anger. Hence, he went to the black market and bought the cheapest timed bomb, hoping to take that woman's life.Hearing Thaddeus' words, he had no idea that his two children were living healthy lives in this world and thought that they had never been born at all.He couldn't help but feel sorry for Thaddeus, who was caught between two women and couldn't get wholehearted devotion from either. He was even worse off than himself, a man whom Amy sought out. At least he had enjoyed ultimate pleasure with her.People of his status also faced hardships in life. Perhaps Thaddeus would never meet his children in the future. It was karma.Thinking of this, Hank grinned ferociously.While Thaddeus was happy, he still had to revenge. He wasn't so excited that he forgot it was this

Jessamine saw Xander's car in front of her and got in. She was really worried that the two children would cause trouble when she wasn't with them."Xander, has Lucas and Layla caused any trouble last night?" Xander scanned her over and was relieved to find that she seemed fine and had no obvious injuries. "The two kids fell asleep while waiting for you to come home. What happened to you yesterday? Why didn't you call me?" Jessamine sighed, "I encountered some danger after work yesterday, but it was a false alarm, everything's fine.""You didn't get hurt, did you?" Xander asked. Jessamine shook her head and tucked the strands of hair behind her ear. "I just swallowed some seawater yesterday. The hospital suggested staying for observation for a day, so I was admitted for a day."Xander became nervous. It wasn't easy for him to find his sister back. She was precious to Gloria. Gloria wouldn't be able to handle it if something bad happened to her again. "Can you be discharged

Jessamine nodded, "Yes."Lucas pushed his luck and asked, "Mommy, can you help me ask for leave every day?"Jessamine became serious. She was a little worried about this son of hers. He always had endless mischievous ideas in his head, and they never knew what he was planning. He wasn't as obedient as Layla. How could it be okay for him to dislike studying at such a young age?"Lucas, Mommy is giving you and your sister leave due to special circumstances. After this period, you still have to go to school."Lucas responded disappointedly, left the dining table and went to tinker with his robots.After having a little food with Layla, Jessamine took the document given by Thaddeus back to her room. It was too dark last night to see clearly, but there was actually a stack of property deeds in the bag, bulging the folder.He was serious about it.Jessamine put the things away. She needed to buy a new phone. The company was just starting, and there were a bunch of things waiting for h

Sophia immediately became aware of Thaddeus the moment she saw him. Her brother had instructed her to keep an eye on Thaddeus and not let him be alone with Jessamine. After a few seconds of reaction, she immediately leaned over and sat on the couch, occupying the entire seat."Jacinda, I'm not leaving. You wouldn't want to see me homeless, right?"Jessamine sighed and sat in her office chair.Thaddeus's gaze swept over Sophia with his unpleasant expression. Just after driving away Jerome, here came Sophia. Could the Langston siblings just leave Jessamine alone?He didn't say much in front of Jessamine, as there was a more serious matter to talk about."Jessie, here's your new phone."He pushed the new phone he had bought that morning toward Jessamine. It was the latest model from a popular brand which was hard to get. Jessamine didn't know how he managed to get it."Thaddeus, you don't have to keep coming over to my place all the time. I can get Judith to buy this for me."Je

Jordan knew his bonus for the month would double when he finished speaking and saw the appreciative look Thaddeus gave him.Jessamine was surprised to hear that he had bought a house here. She had only heard from Xander last time that Thaddeus was looking for houses. Xander even notified all the offline stores not to sell houses to him. Within a few days, he had moved into his own house now? Jessamine thought to herself that someone as picky as him would definitely not be able to tolerate staying in a hotel for long. Moreover, buying a house through an agent probably wasn't the only option available to him. He could do anything with his money.Jessamine was left speechless looking at the pile of items on the desk.Fortunately, she had personally picked and bought the largest desk for convenience. Well, Thaddeus got to enjoy it now.Sophia couldn't sit still on the couch anymore. If Jerome heard about what Thaddeus did, she wouldn't be able to collect the final payment from him. P

"Mrs. Holt, sorry to disturb you. I am helping Mr. Holt to set up the equipment."Jessamine had just checked last month's bills and hadn't started sketching yet. Hearing Jordan address her as Mrs. Holt brought back memories."Mr. Rhodes, you should change the way you address me. Thaddeus and I are already divorced."Jordan scratched his head awkwardly and said, "Alright, Mrs. Holt."Jessamine was left speechless.Before the two could clarify how to address each other in the future, Thaddeus pushed open the door and walked in with a pair of glasses on his nose.Jessamine remembered that he used to have perfect vision. It was the first time she had seen him wearing glasses. It toned down his sharpness considerably and made him appear much more refined.Thaddeus sat down in front of the TV, crossing his hands on the desk.There was another multimedia conference room in the company, but they insisted on crowding into this one. Jessamine didn't know if Jordan did it on purpose or if

Thaddeus was dumbfounded. Why hadn't he considered using blood types to eliminate the possibility first?"My dad has type O blood."Jessamine's stroked his Adam's apple softly and deliberately. "My mom has type B blood, and I have type AB blood. Do you think it's possible that we could be long-lost siblings?"Thaddeus thought for some time and couldn't help but burst out in hearty laughter. It was impossible for someone with type B blood and someone with type O blood to have a child with AB type blood. What was he worrying about?At that moment, he couldn't believe how foolish he'd been. Biology was his best subject in school, yet he didn't think about this until Jessamine reminded him. His biology teacher would be furious if they knew."Why didn't you say so earlier, Jessie?" He regretted not talking to her about it sooner and ended up suffering in prolonged silence by himself.After Jessamine got bored touching his Adam's apple, she started playing with his rough chin. "I just

Jessamine lay still for a long time, aware that Thaddeus was also awake, battling insomnia just like her.This visit to Zenville to solve one mystery ended up bringing her an even bigger one.The gathering took place years ago in the restaurant owned by Benji's family. She had even asked Benji about it. The surveillance footage from over 20 years ago wouldn't be around now, and even the staff had changed several times. The restaurant's manager from back then had left the job many years ago.It wasn't easy to uncover the truth from back then unless they found the people who were directly involved. The closer they got to the truth, the more pressure she felt.By investigating this matter now, she was essentially peeling back the layers that had been hiding a much deeper issue. As she confronted the dark side of human nature, the ultimate victim ended up being her beloved mother.If Jessamine didn't look into this matter, she felt like she would be letting Elizabeth down. She wanted

Thaddeus frowned immensely at his request. "Don't be ridiculous!""I'm serious. You could help me rent one too. You know, the kind that charges by the day. I'll fool my dad first. We'll deal with everything else once he gets better," Benji said.Thaddeus cursed inwardly, "Dude, don't drag me into this, especially with my wife watching. It sounds like you're implying I have ways to get or rent women."Thaddeus glanced back at Jessamine and said, "I don't know about this. You should ask someone else. If you're at your wits end, go ask one of the assistants in your company to help you out."Benji seemed to come to a realization. He said, "It's getting late. You all should go back and rest. There are doctors here. I'll stay and keep watch."Jessamine asked, "Can you handle this on your own, Mr. Moore?""Sure, thank you… all of you," Benji replied.After saying a few more words of comfort, Jessamine and Thaddeus went downstairs to the car. Thaddeus' phone started ringing again."Mr.

Maya also knelt by the bed and started crying."Dad, don't speak for now. Please be okay."Benji zoned out. Seeing Carmen and Maya crying, his mind was in a mess. He realized that he couldn't continue to live aimlessly—his family needed him now."A girlfriend, a girlfriend..." he mumbled, not even sure of what he was saying.The doctor hurried to the room upon hearing the call, checked on Jonathan again, and then sent the family away."The patient needs rest and should avoid additional emotional stress. You all can wait outside for now. There's no need for everyone to be here, one would be enough. The room can be stuffy if there's too many people here, too."They then left the room. Benji was holding the X-ray images of Jonathan's brain, but he couldn't make any sense of it. He felt completely lost.Shane quietly slipped away from the crowd after watching from afar. He went to an empty hallway and called his father. "Dad, are you free to analyze some X-ray images? It's for a fri

Benji had always lived a smooth and pleasant life. It hit him hard after hearing what the doctor said, leaving him in a state of shock and bewilderment."Mom, hasn't Dad always been in good health? How did he suddenly..."Carmen's eyes were red and swollen from crying."He mentioned feeling dizzy a few times recently and said he'd go for a check-up but actually never did. Plus, he's been swamped with work lately and hasn't got any time. Today, he suddenly fainted at the office. His assistant called an ambulance right away and brought him to the hospital. By the time I got the call, he was already being examined inside."Benji's face turned pale. With Jonathan down, the burden of supporting his family fell on him. He had been free from responsibility for the past 20 years, and now, suddenly having to shoulder this heavy load, he felt completely lost.His father had been asking him to get familiar with the company's operations a long time ago. However, he was too lazy to bother abou

Benji never had any grand ambitions. From the day he was born, people always told him that he didn't need to worry about anything since most problems in this world could be solved with money, and his family had plenty of it. He just wanted to drift through life."I don't need to surpass him. As long as I can cover my daily expenses and not have to ask him for money, that's enough," Benji replied.As they were talking, Shane had prepared a table full of dishes. He set out four sets of plates and cutleries before calling everyone over to eat. "It's time to eat."The four of them hadn't seen each other in a long time, so they had to have a drink.Jessamine looked at the beautifully prepared dishes on the table and couldn't help but offer a compliment. "Shane, your cooking skills have gotten so good."Shane opened a bottle of red wine and poured some for everyone. "What can I do? There's a glutton at home."Benji was not happy with Shane's comment. What did he mean by saying there wa

"It's great that you came by today, Jessie. I'll pay you back the money. Friends who are willing to lend money these days are rare, so I want to thank you again," Benji said.He hadn't repaid the money he borrowed last time yet. Coincidentally, he received some money today, so he decided to settle the debt in person. With that, he picked up his phone to make the transfer.Jessamine's phone chimed, indicating that a payment had been received. The amount was a bit more than what she had lent out."Mr. Moore, I'm not here to ask you to settle your debt. You can keep it for now. I won't need the money for the time being," Jessamine said."If one borrows and returns promptly, borrowing again won't be difficult. You're much easier to talk to than Thaddeus. Despite knowing him for so many years, borrowing money from him is such a hassle. You saw it last time yourself. That scoundrel's attitude was terrible!" Benji complained.At this point in the conversation, Thaddeus happened to arrive

Thaddeus tightened his grip on Jessamine's slender waist. "What am I going to do with you, Jessie?"He thought to himself that if things really were just that coincidental, he would rather play the fool and pretend to know nothing at all. He just couldn't leave her.Jessamine asked softly, "How about you ask your dad?"Thaddeus paused for a moment and took out his phone to call Corey. He couldn't calm his mind at all.After a few seconds of hearing the dial tone, the call was answered."Dad," Thaddeus said.On the other end of the phone, Corey was about to go to sleep. He had been adjusting his routine lately, aiming to go to bed early and wake up early."What’s up?" Corey asked."Do you remember the gathering over 20 years ago with Mr. Hardy, Jacob Langston, Leon Lincoln, Paxton Loomis, and a few others?"After that, Thaddeus added, "That night, a beautiful woman came over. She drank some alcohol and was drugged."There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the ph

On the other side, Jessamine and Thaddeus got into the car.Jessamine and Beatrice were quite familiar with each other. However, it was Jessamine's first time meeting Sabastian. Surprisingly, she had a pretty good impression of him."Do the Hardy and Holt families have business dealings with each other?"Thaddeus drove as he answered her question, "We don't have much interaction. We would occasionally invest in small projects and conduct some charity work in Zenville together."Mr. Hardy is an upright and trustworthy person. He has a good relationship with Grandpa. Hayden would often come to my house with him when I was young."Jessamine paused for a moment and asked, "Does he have a wife?""Hayden's mother passed away from an amniotic fluid embolism during childbirth. Since then, Mr. Hardy has remained single and never remarried."Jessamine was deeply moved. In this era, who would remain loyal for a lifetime to their deceased wives? Most men like Sabastian, who had both power a
