Hector was the only one who could do such a "filial" thing, going to the hospital late at night to visit his critically ill father.
But who made the Sheppard family have a son named Hector, who made Hector the eldest son, and Maximo doted on him?
However, after Maximo's condition worsened, he became increasingly displeased with his own son.
Hector was rambling on there, expressing his dissatisfaction, but Maximo could sense Tanya's malicious intentions.
After being docile for so many years, this venomous snake finally started to spit its venom.
"Chad, to be fair, had some self-awareness. He indeed was not capable of handling the position of general manager. We were actually planning to announce a personnel transfer in a few days, and I was going to have a talk with Chad. Since you said so, it seems like I don't need to talk to Chad anymore."
Maximo's words left Hector dumbfounded, "Dad, are you going crazy? You have only one grandson, and if
These things were all known to the world, the Valdez family's affairs, and Morgan was also considered one of the witnesses. After all, when the Valdez family collapsed, he, as a rising star, couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.The incidents that happened back then were also investigated, so they wouldn't be wrongful cases.More than thirty years later, when I checked again, it was difficult to find out the details and intricacies of the matter.When unrelated individuals heard about these matters, they simply sighed and exclaimed, "The Valdez family is truly unfortunate."But Jessica and Terry were not considered true outsiders. Maximo, in such a high-profile manner, revealed Terry's identity to the public and insisted on recognizing Terry as part of the Davison family, regardless of Terry's acceptance. Terry's bloodline is that of the Sheppard family.Similarly, since he was a descendant of the Sheppard family, he was also a descendant of the
Mona and Layton's wedding was scheduled during the National Day holiday. As the day of their wedding drew closer, Hannah remained silent, and Jessica contemplated whether or not to give her a call to remind her about Mona's wedding.As soon as this idea came to her mind, Hannah's phone rang, and she urgently exclaimed, "Jessica, help me! Mona and Layton's wedding day is approaching, have you prepared the gift?"Jessica tapped the desk with a pen and said, "It's ready."She was not herself. Only now could she remember. People who didn't know would think that the person with amnesia was Hannah."What are you planning to give? I've been thinking about it for the past few days, but I really can't think of anything to give!"When it comes to good relationships, Hannah and Mona's relationship is even better than Jessica and Mona's relationship. Mona got married, so naturally Hannah was anxious to give her something.Jessica gave a light snort and
The conversation went round and round, and it came back again.Maximo was choked by Jessica again, and the smile on his face couldn't be maintained.He raised his hand, placed it by his mouth, and coughed a few times.Jessica politely asked, "Sir, are you alright?"He shook his head and then glanced at his assistant beside him. Suddenly, Finley took out a box and placed it in front of Jessica. "Ms. Hall, our Mr. Sheppard came today, but it doesn't really mean anything. However, you are after all the granddaughter-in-law of our Sheppard family. This is something that Mrs. Sheppard instructed to be passed on to her granddaughter-in-law before she passed away. The old gentleman came today just to give this to you, which belongs to Ms. Hall."Realizing that Jessica's argument was not making sense, Maximo also gave up and decided to bring out the "heirloom" in order to gain sympathy.If Jessica were just an ordinary girl from an ordinary family,
Terry had just finished the meeting when he saw Jessica's message. He frowned and immediately dialed Jessica's phone number.Jessica had just finished reading a project proposal when she saw Terry's call display on her phone. She raised an eyebrow and answered the call with a smile, "Has Mr. Davison finished the meeting?""Did the person leave?""He left."The door was knocked, Jessica looked up and said, "Come in."Wendy pushed the door open and walked in. She saw Jessica on the phone and, being very considerate, quickly put down the documents. "Ms. Hall, this is the proposal for the Greenlake project."Jessica nodded and Wendy turned around and walked out the door."What happened?"Jessica finally asked Terry on the other end of the phone."It's nothing, next time you don't have to pay attention to him, just ignore him. If he shamelessly barges in, then you just make him lose face."Terry said and pushed the doo
The decoration of Mona's house was quite interesting. The space was separated very well, with the active area and the quiet area completely distinguished.To get out of the room, you had to pass through a small resting area before reaching the restaurant. Jessica immediately spotted Terry on the table in the restaurant.Today, Mona got married, so naturally all the relatives and friends who came couldn't be neglected, and they also brought a lot of food.On the three-meter-long marble dining table, there were many dishes placed, and on the side bar, there were also many light meals.Terry placed a plate of seafood fried rice and a bowl of soup in front of the seat. Jessica walked over, and he pulled a chair beside for her to sit down.As soon as Jessica put down her bag, Terry naturally took it and put it on himself."Did you eat?"Ate.He said, pushing the soup in front of her, "This soup is a bit hot, drink slowly, have a lit
The wedding car set off at an auspicious time, and after circling the city area, it arrived at the Herring family's house exactly at 5 o'clock in the afternoon.The Herring family and the Gilbert family had business dealings and were considered to be acquaintances.The Herring family was naturally satisfied with Mona, their daughter-in-law. She came from a good family, had good looks, and was able to earn money herself.The Herring family had many customs, but Layton, in order to take care of Mona, discussed with his parents and skipped many complicated procedures, leaving only the simple custom of serving tea and changing greetings.After the tea ceremony, a group of people set off for the hotel.The wedding banquet started at 7 o'clock in the evening. Mona and Layton had finished serving tea by 5:30.The bride had to hurry to the hotel to change her clothes. She had to welcome the guests at six o'clock, so time was quite tight.Jess
Terry reacted quickly and immediately embraced her in his arms.Although Jessica didn't say a word, her head instinctively leaned towards his chest, and the hand being held tightened instinctively.However, Jessica soon realized as well.When Hannah was speaking, she wasn't scared, but now, she wants to scare Terry and ends up scaring herself.Oops, the old horse stumbled.Just as I regained consciousness, I heard a deep laughter from a man, "Did I scare you?"Jessica looked up at him, feeling a bit embarrassed. She stepped out of his embrace without answering his question.I turned my gaze away and looked across the pedestrian path, where a cat was crouching under the streetlamp, licking its paws.Obviously, what just flew down was not something strange, but a mischievous cat.Terry also saw the cat, and he made a soft sound of admiration, saying, "It was a cat, and quite cute."He paused for a moment and said, "
Jessica stood at the staircase, neither moving forward nor backward, so she reluctantly called out, "Mom."May saw her daughter and instantly knew what was going on.She glared at Jessica angrily and said, "How old are you? Why are you still..."Why did you do such a childish thing?Can't you let it go after just one night?But this also indirectly indicates that their daughter and future son-in-law had a good relationship."Wake up, wash up, go downstairs to have some breakfast, and then go back to sleep. Skipping breakfast is not good for the stomach."Jessica's face was burning. She was already twenty-eight years old, and she never expected to be caught in such a situation one day.And it wasn't Terry who came to find her, but she who went to Terry's room to sleep."I knew it, Mom. I went to freshen up first!""Go quickly, it's a bit cold today, wear thicker clothes.""I knew, Mom!"Jessica tighte
Foster originally thought that his memory would never fully recover for the rest of his life, but a car accident in the third year after immigrating made him go through the gates of death again, but also returned all of his lost memories.Samuel was taken aback for a moment when he saw the look in her eyes and said, "Don't tell me you've lost your memory again."There were many wounds on his body. Foster tried to get up, but he found himself very heavy.Upon seeing the situation, Samuel also became afraid and quickly spoke, "Don't move, we finally got out of the ICU, don't go back again."Foster did not move anymore, he turned his head and looked outside the window of the ward.The weather today was very nice, just like the day eight years ago when he left.That day, he left carrying a family grudge, thinking that Hannah was just an accident.Eight years later, their revenge had been avenged, and Hannah had long since married.
On the day of Gemma's seventh birthday, Hannah and Kendall went to the park and set up a tent. They invited Georgia and brought a small grill. The three of them had a pleasant afternoon.Georgia also realized at that time that Gemma had actually been looking forward to going camping with them in a couple of days when she left.Today, we went camping, which fulfilled Gemma's unfinished wish.Gemma left, and the rest of the people had to continue living their lives.Kendall had originally taken a vacation for over a month, intending to return to the company only after the two of them got married and officially ended their leave.Now Gemma couldn't wait for his and Hannah's wedding, so he left. There was still nearly a month left, and Kendall asked Hannah to stay with Georgia on the South side for a while, as he was going abroad.He went abroad to meet the senior executives of the Harrington Group, who had been overseas all along. After that, h
After the cremation was completed, the staff asked Kendall to pick up the bones.Without waiting for Kendall to speak, she immediately refused.She couldn't understand this twisted "service". The loss of a loved one is already enough to make people feel desperate and miserable, and after cremation, they actually make people go and pick up the bones.Even though it was just symbolically picking one or two, it still remained incomprehensible.This was simply cruel and incomprehensible.The people in charge of the cemetery burial had already made arrangements. After leaving the funeral home, the group followed the car to the cemetery.The location of Gemma's grave was very good, and the photo on the tombstone showed her in her thirties, looking young, elegant, and beautiful.The urn was placed inside, the tomb was buried, and everything came to a complete end here.Hannah looked up at the distant sky with red eyes.The weat
Hannah really had no appetite and couldn't continue eating after a few bites.She lowered her head and drank the chicken soup that Gemma had specially instructed the aunt to stew before leaving. Tears fell directly into the soup.In fact, there wasn't much deep emotion between her and Gemma, but during this time, listening to her talk about many childhood things, now that she's gone, this sudden blow has made Hannah unable to bear it.She lowered her head, trying hard to calm her emotions, but the more she tried, the more uncomfortable she felt.Finally, she couldn't take it anymore and got up to go to the bathroom.Hannah stayed in the bathroom for a while before she came out.At that time, Georgia and Jaylen also came over.The sky had already turned completely dark when Georgia and Jaylen stepped in, guided by the moonlight."Where was your mother?"Georgia looked relatively calm and, looking at Kendall, asked a quest
Kendall quickly bought everything and brought it back.Recently, Gemma actually couldn't eat much. She relied on nutrient fluids and some soup to maintain the most basic nutrition.She was rare in the mood to eat something at the moment, although she didn't eat much, she tried a little bit of everything."This sausage isn't that delicious, why do so many children like to eat it?"Gemma was particularly puzzled. It smelled quite fragrant, but when she tasted it, it was really average.Hannah smiled and said, "Probably because parents didn't allow us to eat it often, so it tasted better.""Hannah's point does make some sense,"She said, sighing, "In fact, that's just how people are, no matter who they are or how old they are, there's always a bit of rebellion. The more others try to stop you from doing something, the more you want to do it."And she herself, wasn't she like this too?The group of people started walking bac
After Kendall returned to the South town, Gemma visibly became much happier.Kendall had everything arranged for work. After returning from this vacation, unless there was a necessary emergency, he wouldn't even answer a work phone call.Every day, Hannah and I would go to Gemma's place for meals. In the evening, when the sun was setting, the two of us would push Gemma for a walk outside the villa.Blaine did come to see Gemma once, probably after her serious illness. Gemma also let go of a lot and didn't feel the same way about Blaine as before.After so many years since their divorce, this is the first time they sat down to have a proper conversation.After Konnor's death, Kendall was unwilling to inherit everything from the Hawthorne family, but the shares he returned did not fall into his hands, nor did they fall into Jeffrey's hands.Nowadays, Jeffrey is just a nobody.Blaine's days were looking bright, but all was in Kendall's h
Kendall knew that he couldn't argue with Hannah, and if they continued to argue, they would definitely fight.He didn't speak anymore, took a few sips of hot drink, and then closed his eyes to take a nap.He didn't really have a good rest during this period of time. In order to rush over, he had been working overtime for five consecutive nights.The carriage was quiet with no one speaking. After the train got on the expressway, Hannah glanced at Kendall beside her.The person had already fallen asleep.She curled her lips slightly, knowing that this person was stubborn.Twenty minutes later, the car drove into the parking lot.Hannah drove the car well, while Kendall showed no signs of waking up.She took out her phone, checked the time, and it was already past eleven.Although Kendall was sleeping soundly, she didn't want to wake the person up, but she couldn't let him sleep in the car all the time, could she?Ha
Gemma woke up for the second time, and she stayed awake for a little longer, but not for too long. She managed to stay awake for about twenty minutes before falling asleep again.Hannah and Kendall stayed at the hospital until after 8 o'clock in the evening, when Gemma woke up again.When she woke up this time, she was feeling better, although she still couldn't speak very fluently, but much better than during the day.In the evening, Georgia brought dinner over, along with some soup.Kendall fed Gemma half a bowl of chicken soup and had a conversation with her before they left the hospital.It was very dark, and the two of them had already arrived home at nine o'clock.Hannah remembered Kendall's plan to return to LA tomorrow and couldn't help but ask, "What time is your flight tomorrow?""Around 7 o'clock in the morning, a bit early, I drove directly to the airport.""Okay."She took the cup from his hand and lowered h
When Hannah woke up, Kendall was already not in bed.Although I slept for a while, I didn't sleep well last night, and it is difficult to make up for it with a nap during the day.As soon as she got up, Hannah felt a bit dizzy. She picked up the phone beside her and realized it was already past twelve o'clock.She and Kendall didn't get home until 8 o'clock, and they only slept for four hours.I don't know how long Kendall slept.She sat on the bed for a while, and only got up and left the room after she woke up.Walking into the living room, Hannah saw Kendall on the phone.She took a glance, didn't walk over, and went to the countertop of the open kitchen to pour herself a glass of water. While drinking, she messaged Georgia, asking about Gemma's current situation that day.The message had been sent for a while, but Georgia did not reply.She had just looked up when Kendall had finished the call.The two of them
