Jim did not have much of a reaction at all. Instead, he just frowned, staring at Joshua. "What on earth are you talking about? She's my sister, so of course I care about her innocence!"With that, he let out an exhale. "Even though neither Luna nor I was fond of your secretary, I know that Luna would never kill someone. I'm sure you know this better than I do."Besides, I heard from the police just now that they found a fingerprint on the murder weapon, but it didn't belong to Luna."There was no security camera on the balcony, and the only evidence they have is the witness statement from the security guards."Jim let out another exhale before continuing, "Luna has just been appointed as the new CEO of Landry Group tonight, and she is now at the height of attention here in Merchant City, so we cannot let her go to jail."Those security guards' witness statements cannot prove that Luna was indeed the murderer."When Cheryl's parents arrive tomorrow, I hope that you, as Cheryl's bo

Joshua's car peeled off into the distance.Charles was so angry that he could not stop patting his chest in frustration as he watched the black Masevati disappear into the distance.It turned out that Joshua Lynch was just as cruel as his late grandmother.Luna was the woman that had loved him for many years and had borne four children for him, even though one had died at birth.Truth be told, even as Luna's family, they had to admit that they did not know Luna as well as Joshua did, but at this point, not only was he unwilling to help clear Luna's name, he had even threatened to let her stay in jail because of her recent appointment as CEO!"Father." Jim immediately rushed over to gently pat Charles' back. "Don't be so upset; we can think of another plan."Charles gazed up at the sky and replied, "It's now midnight, and there are only a few hours left until morning comes."The person who died was Joshua's employee, so how can we get Luna out of jail before daylight comes withou

Granny Quinn took a sip from her tea, sneering. "I knew the two of you would be useless!"She let out a scoff and continued, "Fortunately, I had been preparing for this day since a long time ago, and if I had relied on just the two of you, the Quinn family would have gone bankrupt by now!"The Quinn family had already gone broke after their supply chain was attacked by Lynch Group, but in the end, Granny Quinn had placed all of her personal savings into Quinn Group's funds and had successfully saved Quinn Group from going bankrupt.Granny Quinn let out an exhale and tossed a piece of paper in front of Malcolm and Heather. "Sign this."Malcolm picked up the paper, trembling.Just one glance at the paper was enough to make him almost faint.This paper was a contract denouncing that he would resign his position as the CEO of Quinn Group and leave the Quinn family with his wife and child!"Granny…" Malcolm bit his lip, and his form trembled like a leaf. "I had just committed a small

The next morning, Lucas drove all the way to Cheryl's hometown to bring her parents to Merchant City.The two elders were excited to be picked up by the personal assistant of Joshua Lynch, CEO of Lynch Group. "Assistant Lucas, a few days ago, Sherry told us that she and President Lynch were growing closer and closer…is that true?"You must be busy, working as President Lynch's assistant, too, aren't you? Is Sherry the first person President Lynch has ever sent his assistant to pick up her family before?"What is she doing right now? Why isn't she picking up her phone?"Why did President Lynch send you to bring us to Merchant City? What's going on?"…Cheryl's parents kept asking Lucas questions left and right.Lucas could not bear to deliver the bad news himself to the two elders who took so much pride in their daughter.He had no choice but to give them vague answers as he stepped on the gas.Soon, the car arrived at the police station.When Lucas asked them to get out of th

Jim strode into the lobby and frowned, glancing at the hallway as he signed the visitation forms to visit Luna. "Why are they crying so early in the morning?"The policeman let out a sigh and replied in a low voice, "They're the family members of the murder victim which your sister is involved in, and they just got in this morning."I hear that she was the only child and had always been the pride of the family. Both her parents are old now and no longer in the best health. Who would've thought that…"The policeman sighed again. "What a pity."Jim's hand, which was holding the pen, stiffened when he heard this.A split second later, he, too, let out a sigh and continued filling in the form.When he finally finished, both of Cheryl's parents had stopped crying.When Jim left the room, he bumped into Joshua, bringing Cheryl's parents to meet with the chief officer in charge of their cases.The two elders had to be propped up by Joshua and Lucas as they walked.Cheryl's father was

Seeing the glimmer in Luna's eyes disappear, Jim sighed, took out a contract from his pocket, and placed it in front of Luna. "I didn't manage to sleep even a wink last night. After settling everything here, I returned to Landry Group to familiarize myself with everything that has happened and how the company's situation is now."He lifted his head to stare at Luna. "The situation is far more complicated than I had expected."Heather was a total idiot. Under Malcolm's influence, she had tied all of Landry Group's supply chains together with Quinn Group's to double their profits, but this also meant that if one of us were to go bankrupt, the other would go down with them."I'm sure you must still remember what happened to Quinn Group last night."Jim pushed the contract closer to Luna and said, "Because of this, Landry Group is on the verge of bankruptcy as well. I have to first help both Landry and Quinn Group tide over this before I can untie both of the corporation's bonds."The

Joshua curled his lips into a smirk. "What a change of heart."Over the past year, every time Joshua and Luna met, whether at Tea Cottage or Luna's current residence, Joshua had approached her first.However, since she was in jail, she was the one initiating their meeting instead."There's no change of heart." Jim glanced impassively at the elderly couple behind Joshua. "It's natural that Luna would want to see you, considering you were the one who persuaded Cheryl's parents into framing her for murder."Jim had deliberately lowered his voice when he said this, but to his surprise, both of Cheryl's parents still overheard this.Mrs. Martin widened her eyes in shock when she heard this. She immediately stormed over to Jim, dragging Mr. Martin behind her, and yelled, "What on earth are you talking about? How dare you say we're framing Luna?"She pointed at the surveillance footage on the police officer's screen and said, sobbing, "Everything has been recorded through security foota

Joshua did not expect Jim to toss the question over to him.He narrowed his eyes and said impassively, "I believe only the results of the police's investigation."Jim sneered as he wiped away the blood trickling out of the corner of his lips. "I know that too, but I'm asking you that as Luna's ex-wife, the father of Luna's four children, do you, Joshua Lynch, think that Luna could have killed Cheryl, the woman that posed no threat to her at all whether relationship or career-wise?""What do you mean, she posed no threat to Luna's relationship or career-wise?" Cheryl's parents could not believe this at all.Mrs. Martin tried to release herself from Joshua's grip as she glared at Jim. "Luna clearly killed Cheryl because she didn't think she'd be able to compete against her when trying to win President Lynch's heart! How dare you even say she posed no threat to Luna? You're talking nonsense!"Seeing that Mrs. Martin was about to be freed of Joshua's grasp and lunge toward Jim, two po

At that, he looked at Gwen. "Actually…"Steven found himself unable to finish his sentence. After a long while, he shook his head and smiled. "Forget about it.""Steven…" Gwen looked at him, and her tears fell.Her heart was not made of stone. How could she not know Steven's feelings toward her?She was silent for a long while. In the end, she stood up and slowly walked over to Steven with arms opened wide. "Give me a hug."Steven hesitated for a while, but he still stood up.They hugged."Gwen." Steven hugged her thin figure. "I have to meet you earlier in the next life so I can compete fairly with my brother."Gwen nodded with tears streaming down her face. "Okay."They thus hugged once more. Minutes later…"He's gone," said Stefan.Tears kept falling.They hugged for a while longer before pulling apart. Gwen looked at Stefan with her tear-stricken face. He had tears on his face as well.She bit her lips and reached out to wipe his tears. "A—Are these tears…yours or his?

The next day, Rachel flew from Merchant City to Sharnwick City to diagnose Anne's condition. Theo tagged along as well because he had another identity, Rachel's boyfriend."According to the report, Anne's condition is slowly recuperating." Rachel was relieved after assessing the report. "Although she is very weak, she is going to get better with lots of rest."There is nothing wrong with her vocal cords too. It could be a psychological thing that makes her lose her voice. A knot in her heart that causes it." She looked at Luna, then at John. "Considering all factors, I think that knot is Luna."Rachel continued, "John, I know Luna is the root cause of all these bad things. Being away from Luna, Joshua, and other people is going to guarantee a safer life for you and your family. But have you thought about it from Anne's point of view? Other than you and Sammie, she has her own life and her circle of friends. Never has she blamed Luna for what happened, yet you forced her to leave Lun

It was almost a miracle for Anne to willingly leave the house just to visit him!Robyn, meanwhile, sobbed at the sight.The nurse who accompanied Anne to the ward was puzzled. What was going on with these people?She snuck her phone out of her pocket and took a photo of this surreptitiously. Then, she sent it into the nurse's group chat with the caption, [What a strange family I met today.]The nurses in the group chat began gossiping about this. One of them tagged a fellow nurse named Daisy and said, [Hey, isn't this the guy who saved the old man you're looking after? What a hero!]Daisy was, at this moment, walking into Andy's room to help him change his wound dressing. She saw the message but was not able to type on her keyboard to respond, so she recorded a voice message instead. "Yes, that's the man. What's wrong with his family? What are you guys talking about?"As soon as she finished her sentence, she lifted her head and finally realized that Andy was not there.Instead,

Anne stared at John for a long time before forcibly smiling and told him in sign language, "Robyn didn't return after so long, so I got worried and came by to check on her.""Daddy, Aunt Robyn, are you two hugging?" Sammie asked, blinking innocently as she raised her head in curiosity.John and Robyn turned pale at this.It was understandable for such a young child like Sammie to misinterpret them as hugging, but what would Anne think of this?John leaped off the bed and staggered toward Anne. "Anne, it's just a misunderstanding…"However, he was still so weak that his legs could not hold up the full weight of his body at all, and he almost crumpled to the ground.Quick-witted Robyn managed to catch him before he could fall, but this gesture appeared once again rather intimate to both Anne and Sammie. Sammie furrowed her brow and asked rather indignantly, "Are you hugging again? Daddy, how can you hug Aunt Robyn like this when you've never even hugged Mommy and me like this befor

When the nurse pushed Anne to John's ward, she overheard John and Robyn fighting from the door. The fight was about how John was anxious to return home because he was worried about Anne and Sammie.However, as someone who used to work as a nurse, Robyn knew John should not leave the hospital after being shot by a gun. At least, he needed to stay in the hospital and be observed for 24 hours to make sure that he was fine before leaving the hospital. If an infection happened, John's body would crash easily and he would become weak just like Anne.In the ward, John frowned and talked with a serious tone, "I'm really fine. Get me my clothes so I can go upstairs to thank Miss Andie and go back home immediately. If Anne knows that I'm hurt, she is going to worry. She will easily be suspicious since you haven't gone back home for a long time. What if she worries about me and brings Sammie to the hospital to look for me? Can you bear yourself even just thinking about it? She's weak and Sammie

Sammie's soft and cute babyish voice melted Stefan's heart immediately. It had been quite some time since he actually put a smile on his face. "Hi, there. What's your name and how old are you?"Sammie tilted her head to look at Stefan's handsome face and smiled sweetly, "I'm Samantha but everyone calls me Sammie."Then she did not forget to introduce Anne to Stefan too. "This is my Mommy. Her name is Anne."At this point, Stefan had given all of his attention to Sammie and did not notice Sammie mentioned that her mother's name was Anne. He pinched Sammie's cheek and said, "Your Mommy is not feeling well. You have to be a good girl and take care of her, do you understand?"Sammie nodded seriously and said, "I will.""Alright, sir. I will bring them to where they want to go," the nurse saw Anne signing to her anxiously. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will take good care of them."The promise from the nurse gave an assurance to Stefan that they would be well taken off. He smil

This was the first time Anne brought Sammie out. Ever since she escaped from death, she became a different person—a recluse and was afraid of the sun. This situation became even worse after she became mute.The last time she left the house was two weeks ago when she had to go for surgery.However, she worried about John. In the morning, Robyn told her John was hurt and needed to stay in the hospital to rest. However, she had a hard time believing what Robyn said.After spending so many years together with John, Anne reckoned she was the one who knew John the most. If it was a minor injury, John would never want to stay in the hospital. He cared too much about her and Sammie, so he never dared to let her worry about him. Therefore, it just did not sound reasonable if John would stay in the hospital because of a small injury.Furthermore, Robyn had not returned home since the morning, which was nearly three hours since she left the house. After much consideration, she decided to call

Tara fell silent upon hearing this. She bit her lip nervously and shot Gwen a tentative glance. "I didn't mean to offend you, Gwen…" "I know." Gwen let out an exhale and interrupted Tara before she could finish, "I know you meant no harm, but I can't deny that this is something I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around. In the future, neither of you—even you, Luna—should bring this up again." Her love life was such a mess that not even she could unravel the ties, much less expect other people to understand. Tara pursed her lips and did not reply. Luna stared at Gwen in silence for a while before finally saying, "But you have to face this eventually, Gwennie. After all that you've been through with Luke, all of us hope for nothing but the best for the two of you. Even if you avoid it now, you'll have to face the truth eventually. Otherwise, are you planning on spending the rest of your life in this complicated relationship with Luke? Can you bear the thought of not being

Stefan was mildly amused by the look on her face. He extended his arms out in a gesture of defeat and said, "I never intended on ratting you out to Joshua. You three spoke about these secrets in my presence." With that, he shot Andy a rather helpless look. "Don't you agree, sir?" Andy was surprised to be called out all of a sudden. "Of course!" Although Gwen and Luke had been together for a long time, Luke had never much cared for maintaining good relations with his future father-in-law. He always thought his relationship with Gwen did not concern anyone else outside of the two of them. Combined with the fact that Andy had done some hurtful things to Gwen in the past, Luke grew even more disdainful of his future father-in-law. Because of this, he had never given Andy as much as a second glance throughout their relationship and rarely ever addressed him directly like this. The truth was, Stefan had already called out to Andy once before, during their rescue mission the day befor
