After visiting Perotone, Maricela continued to call Carissa every day. At first, the calls went unanswered, but later the phone was simply out of service. This gave Maricela a bad feeling. Could something have happened to her friend?

Maricela couldn't help but think of what her uncle had told her - that Westford Capital had gone bankrupt and Estela was now in jail. Thinking back, it wasn't hard to understand how Westford Capital had ended up in this situation. With so many people in Westford Capital, why was it only Estela who was in jail? Undoubtedly, it was because of the incident at the Henderson family's New Year's Eve party. Dominic alone couldn't have taken down Westford Capital, and he was still waiting for Westford Capital's financing. It was probably the doing of the Henderson family patriarch.

The more Maricela thought about it, the more anxious she became. She decided to take a taxi to the city prison, a place that made her feel unbearable just thinking about it.

    "The medicine was obtained for me by Brett. As Miss Estela, I am constantly under media scrutiny, and even if I were to take a normal dose of sedatives or hypnotics, it would still arouse a lot of speculation. This would be extremely detrimental to the Westford family," Estela said, with a self-deprecating smile on her lips."Now that the Westford family is no more, what's the point of talking about stock prices?" she continued, realizing the truth of the matter only now. She had thought she was the yellow bird standing behind the praying mantis, but in reality, she was just a cicada on a tree."What did Maricela say to you just now that made you loosen your tongue? Weren't you adamant about not revealing anything before?" Estela opened her eyes and gave a cold glance at a certain spot.Parker, behind the glass wall, raised an eyebrow. This toothless tiger still had quite a presence."She didn't say anything to me, but she said everything," Estela replied, her mind already somewhat mu

    Carissa looked at the unfamiliar number on her phone and confirmed for a long time before recognizing that the person on the other end was her uncle, Brett."Uncle, what's going on? What happened?" Carissa's voice trembled.Brett wouldn't call her during his vacation unless something serious had happened."Estela has told everything!" Brett's voice was filled with anxiety. He knew all too well what would happen to him if he got caught for smuggling illegal drugs into the country and causing harm to others. He would be executed multiple times over.Carissa dropped her phone to the ground with a loud bang.There was silence on the other end, and Brett's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. He realized that he couldn't rely on a child like Carissa in such a situation. Besides, he had volunteered for this in the first place. He just didn't expect everything to happen so quickly."Uncle, hold on. I'll tell Dad everything. He'll help us! As long as we keep this quiet, we'll be okay!" Ca

    "Don't call my wife in the middle of the night anymore. She works hard every day and is so busy that she only has eyes for me. You better give up on her now." Dominic said with a slightly teasing tone, bringing his lips close to the phone and speaking softly to Wilson. "Okay." Wilson didn't know what kind of emotion he was feeling as he hung up the phone, but at that moment, he felt a deep sense of guilt towards his elder brother. He didn't expect that the relationship between Kathy and Dominic was so transparent as if they had no secrets between them. "He's hung up, you can put your hand down now." Dominic looked down at the small head buried in his chest, then at the hand holding the phone above his head, which was trembling slightly. His heart softened. "You're suffocating me." Kathy let out a big breath, lifted her head from Dominic's chest, and took a deep breath of fresh air. Then she put her hand down and rubbed it. "Are you sure it's okay to treat Wilson like th

    "Wait a minute." Dominic swallowed his saliva. He had lived for almost thirty years, but he had never been as nervous as he was now."Don't worry, my parents are very nice people. They won't give you a hard time." Kathy giggled at Dominic, blinked, and opened the door with a smile."This is my first time coming to your house. Shouldn't I bring a gift? Otherwise, it would be impolite to come empty-handed." Dominic looked at himself, empty-handed, feeling a bit regretful.Kathy chuckled, "My parents don't care about these things.""No, let's go buy something." Dominic pulled Kathy and headed towards the entrance of the community.“Harry, did you see that girl just now? Is it Kathy from the Thompson family?" A middle-aged woman carrying vegetables asked her husband who was walking beside her.Harry shook his head, "I didn't see clearly. Let's hurry back. It's going to snow soon, and it will be difficult to walk later."Both Naomi and Harry forgot to bring their access cards and were tra

    "This is too expensive! Auntie can't accept it!" Naomi quickly pushed the wine back into Kathy's arms. "You young people work hard, I absolutely cannot accept it. You should take it back and let your father drink it.""Auntie, my dad already has some, please just accept it." Kathy stuffed the wine into Naomi's arms and waved goodbye before huffing and puffing up the stairs with Dominic."Auntie was so good to me when I was young. In these past few years when I wasn't at home, Aunt Naomi, Aunt Milly, and our families have been taking care of each other."Dominic nodded, feeling unfamiliar with this kind of neighborly relationship. He had never experienced things like slaughtering chickens or exchanging gifts with neighbors before."Mom!"Esme was bored, sitting on the sofa with old Thompson, watching TV. Even the funniest skit didn't seem interesting to her.Their home was always so quiet and empty.She wanted to call her daughter, but it was the end of the year and her daughter was pr

    "This..." Esme was momentarily speechless.Harry heard the commotion and came out of the kitchen, leaving the half-cut potato shreds behind. "What's wrong? Didn't I ask you to bring some garlic from the balcony?"Esme pointed to the crate of expensive 1980 wine on the ground. "Harry, this was all brought by Dominic."Harry hadn't paid attention to what the young man had brought up earlier and had just left it at the entrance. Now, looking at the wine and then at Dominic, Harry felt that his daughter had probably found herself a rich second-generation."Don't bring such valuable things over next time. We're a small family and can't afford to consume them," he said.Dominic suddenly felt that Kathy's parents were not as friendly towards him as before.Of course, Kathy knew what was going on and was worried about it.When the food was served, Esme and Kathy tried to ease the tension, but Harry still didn't like this rich second-generation young man.If he wasn't a rich second-generation,

    As soon as he entered the door, Thompson felt that the boy Kathy brought back was too rich. Buying so much expensive wine just to drink as water? Thompson couldn't accept having such a person as his son-in-law.Kathy sneered, "Xavier, I advise you to take responsibility for your actions as a human being.""Kathy, I know that my company went bankrupt before and I couldn't give you the future you wanted, which disappointed you. But now I have founded a new company, TI. Can you come back to me?"The soundproofing effect of the old building was already poor, and many families had been eyeing Thompson's family for a long time, listening at the door crack. Now, Kathy, who hadn't been home for many years, brought back her company's boss as her current boyfriend.When the ex-boyfriend came to the door, he unexpectedly revealed the truth behind their breakup: Kathy was gold-digging and abandoned the unsuccessful Xavier?Everyone felt sorry for Xavier, who had lost both his career and love.Sud

    Kathy and Dominic never expected to see such a spectacular scene when they returned home this time. Looking at the sudden appearance of uncles and aunts, Kathy's mood was quite complicated. After a long time, the elders were still protecting her just like they did in the past, no matter what. As she watched, Kathy's eyes became moist and she buried her head in Dominic's chest. "What's wrong?" Dominic held Kathy in his arms, gently lifted her face, and wiped away her tears with heartache. Kathy shook her head. "Nothing, just the smell of garbage."Upon hearing this, Thompson and Esme, who were originally quite happy, suddenly realized an important problem. This was right in front of their house! How would they deal with so much garbage later? "Don't throw it away! That's enough! You guys will clean it up for me later!" Thompson shouted at the old neighbors who hadn't had enough fun. Naomi waved her hand. "Thompson, don't worry about it. Let this brat clean it up for you later!"After

    "I have no idea. Oh, by the way, I saw you at the Spring Festival Gala earlier," Kathy said, trying to please him. Dominic's face turned as dark as ink on the side."I've been to the Spring Festival Gala for three consecutive years," he said."I know!" Wilson's heart skipped a beat, his tone filled with excitement and joy that he tried to hide.Knowing that it was impossible between him and Kathy, and knowing that she had no interest in him, Wilson's heart still couldn't help but be stirred by her words."Didn't you mention it in your interview today?" Kathy asked."You watched my interview too?" Wilson couldn't help but laugh."They didn't change the channel all day," Dominic's cold voice came from beside Kathy, and then a handsome face that looked a lot like Wilson's was pressed against Kathy's cheek.This scene made Wilson's heart ache.Wilson forced a smile. "Brother, why are there so many people downstairs? What are they doing? The snow is so dirty, and they're just throwing it

    "Auntie, don't worry, he won't dare to sue you." After making the phone call, Dominic walked into the living room, washed his hands in the kitchen, and then sat down at the table, picking up a piece of dough that had already been rolled out into a dumpling skin."Are you not going to wrap them?" Dominic noticed that he was the only one in the family with a relaxed expression, and curiously looked at the Thompson family's parents and Kathy.Kathy saw Dominic's relaxed expression and knew that he must have resolved the issue. "Will it cause any trouble for Wilson?""Are you worried about him?" Dominic instantly regretted calling Wilson.He thought that he could reassure the Thompson family's parents and make Kathy feel at ease, but this girl was worried about whether it would cause trouble for Wilson."No." Although Dominic repeatedly assured them that Wilson would not sue the Thompson family's parents over such a minor matter, Esme and Thompson's brows remained furrowed all night.Th

    "Hey, I know, I know, we can't just blurt it out like this. What if we attract some paparazzi?" Naomi was about to leave when she caught sight of the big TV hanging on the wall of the Thompson family living room. She immediately pointed at the TV and exclaimed, "Isn't that him! The big star!"Now, everyone in the room looked at the TV, their eyes filled with curiosity.CL TV was playing an interview video of Wilson."This is already the third time that Wilson has been invited by the Spring Festival Gala program group. Do you have anything to say to the audience friends in front of the TV?"Wilson smiled gracefully, suppressing the kind of unruly air he had when he was with Kathy and others in private. "I hope this year's Wilson won't disappoint the audience friends and the Spring Festival Gala program group who invited me. I will work hard."As he spoke, Wilson even bowed to the camera, showing his politeness. His whole body exuded the aura of a noble young master, making people feel

    Kathy didn't expect this, "You, you've been sleeping for so many days, how did you suddenly...""To be honest, I haven't been sleeping well these past few nights. When you were sleeping, you really liked to move around..." Dominic hadn't finished speaking when Kathy felt her legs go numb and she unconsciously moved them.The quietness in the air was the most frightening.Kathy's mind went blank.It seemed like she accidentally touched something hard— His manhood! "What are you moving for!" Dominic tightly controlled Kathy's struggling wrist, "Don't move, I'll go take a cold shower."Kathy, embarrassed, timidly looked at Dominic and nodded, "Okay, you can go."Dominic was choked by her words and couldn't catch his breath for a while, but eventually he bent down.Kathy quickly turned her head, revealing her long and white neck."Ah!" Kathy exclaimed, her eyes misty and watery, pitifully looking at Dominic, "Why did you bite me! It hurts!"Hearing the words that made him want to indulg

    Kathy couldn't understand why Dominic was laughing so brightly at such a dangerous moment when they almost hit a dog. "Kathy, why do you look so pale?" Dominic turned his head and saw Kathy's worried face, as if she had just survived a disaster. Did what he said just now make her uncomfortable? Dominic was anxious and didn't know what was going on. "Kathy, if you mind, I won't say such things next time. Let's wait until we get married..." Dominic said. "Didn't you see the dog on the side of the road just now?" Kathy turned her head and looked at Dominic with an unkind expression. "I avoided it, didn't I?" Dominic felt wronged. Wasn't Kathy worried about the dog just now? "But why did you laugh so loudly after avoiding it? What if you hit it?" Kathy gave Dominic a white eye and turned her head to look out the window, giving Dominic a big slap on the back of his head. For no reason, Dominic smiled again with his mouth open. "Kathy, I'm really happy!" Kathy really didn't know what w

    Dominic felt that at this moment, Kathy was emitting an indescribable radiance. A long time ago, he fell in love with Kathy. Now, he was having difficulty breathing, and Kathy had become the only tenderness and light he longed for in this world.Thompson and Esme never doubted their daughter's abilities. Since childhood, Kathy has always been the most outstanding one. No matter how difficult things were, as long as Kathy said she could do it, even if it meant risking her life, she would do it. Yes, although their family was not outstanding, they had such an outstanding daughter! As long as their daughter was excellent enough to not fear any challenges, then being in a relationship with Dominic didn't seem like such a difficult thing to accept.Although Thompson and Esme still had worries on their faces, their masks were no longer as indestructible as before. "Kathy, won't this be too hard for you?" Esme felt sorry for her daughter.Extraordinary Kathy was born into such an ordinary

    "Mom, Dad, this is one of his business bank accounts, and it's also his account with the least amount of money." Thompson and Esme looked at it and were scared by the long string of numbers. Thompson took the phone from his daughter's hand in disbelief, stared at the string of numbers with wide eyes, and muttered to himself. "Have you counted it? How many digits is it?" "It seems to be nine digits..." "What do you mean 'seems to be'? How many digits exactly?" "Ten digits." Esme almost stumbled and couldn't stand firm. Thompson held her up and said, "Don't worry, my dear." "Oh my god, ten digits, tens of billions..." This is not even how it's portrayed in TV dramas. In an instant, Thompson and Esme panicked. Esme sighed and said to Kathy, "My dear, you must not be with him just for his money! The most important thing in a relationship is to live a good life together!" "Dominic, you've seen our family's situation. We are just ordinary working-class people, but

    "Ah! Bus route 3! Quick!" Thompson turned his gaze away from the double doors of the restroom and saw the bus approaching in the distance. He quickly bumped Dominic's arm with his shoulder and they ran towards the bus station with their bags.Dominic, who had never experienced this before, didn't know what to do.Seeing Dominic still in a daze, Kathy switched all her bags to her right hand, grabbed Dominic's arm, and ran forward. "What are you thinking? Did Dalein give you a brainwashing attack!"Even if Dominic didn't know why The Thompson family was desperately running forward, he understood that all he could do now was to hurry up.After rushing, with the help of a kind driver, the Thompson family finally squeezed onto the bus.Dominic looked at the empty seats on the bus, his Adam's apple moved, he swallowed hard, and regained his senses.It seemed that he had just done something he had never done before. It felt quite novel.Kathy pulled Dominic to sit in the double seat at the

    The family overcame many obstacles and finally arrived at the place where Thompson often bought clothes. The shop owner saw Thompson and immediately waved, "You're here again today?" "Yes, I'm here to buy some clothes for my son-in-law for the New Year! See if you have anything that fits him well, price is not a problem!" The shop owner was happy to hear this. In the past, Thompson always bargained hard and the shop owner didn't make much profit from selling him clothes. But today, Thompson couldn't lose face in front of his son-in-law, so he wouldn't bargain, which meant the shop owner could make a lot of money. When the shop owner saw Dominic, his eyes lit up. "Is your son-in-law a model? He's so handsome!" Thompson was quite proud when he heard this. "He's not a model, he's a CEO!" Esme couldn't help but poke Thompson twice and whispered, "Don't show off your wealth. Do you still want to bargain?"Thompson immediately realized his mistake and chuckled, "I was just kidding, he
