The other board members' confidants and the company's management executives looked at Angeline in a new light.

Taylor was Robert's confidant and had worked with him for decades. Now he was following Angeline and acting according to her instructions. It showed how much Robert trusted Angeline.

The board members wondered if Sean would still be the future successor of Lawson Global.

They also wondered if Robert had planned to let Sean and Angeline compete with each other so that he could choose a successor from the two.

Before they figured things out, the elevator door opened.

Helen, who was still holding her coffee, stood inside the elevator with Danny.

The executives and the board members' confidants immediately assumed that Helen must be very close to Danny. They felt that they would have to rely on Helen for the exclusive collaboration with Lawson Global.

When they thought of how Helen was doubtful of Angeline's identity as the founder of Vitality Biotech Group, they immedia

    "I'm sorry. Any unrelated personnel aren't allowed in the conference room," Jamie said calmly as he pushed the glasses on his nose."It's alright!" Helen maintained a smile and stopped her assistant, who was about to speak up on her behalf. "Since Mr. Reilly is here, let's not make a fuss. As long as Lawson Global can collaborate with Vitality Biotech Group, I'm fine with anything! After all, I have 10% of the shares in Lawson Global. If the company makes money, so do I! I'm not a narrow-minded person!"The moment Helen heard Danny calling Angeline his boss, she knew that Angeline was the founder of Vitality Biotech Group for sure. No matter what, as long as the board of directors and executives of Lawson Global thought Helen was the one who had paved the way for the exclusive collaborative agreement between Lawson Global and Vitality Biotech Group, it would be enough. The more Angeline tried to oppress her, the more people would think that Helen was the one being bullied. "Ms. L

    Helen's chest was heaving. Her mind raced as she tried to think of another plan. Danny twisted open the lid of his water bottle and said, "None of us were born yesterday. My boss trusts me, but I must explain things clearly so my boss or people like you from Lawson Global don't misunderstand my character. I'm afraid I might lose my position."Danny wasn't wrong. Anyone who worked in a corporate setting would be wary of looking bad in front of their boss."Didn't Helen say that she knew the founder of Vitality Biotech? Didn't she know that Ms. Lawson is the founder?""She clearly didn't know! Even the collaboration with Vitality Biotech was decided with simply one sentence from Ms. Lawson, but Helen actually tried to say that Ms. Lawson was taking credit for her work. What a joke… The entire thing was Ms. Lawson's, to begin with!"Helen's heart was beating rapidly. If she couldn't think of a way to settle this, things would be hard for her from now on."Someone asked me if I was

    Helen was struck dumb by Danny's statement. "It's common for people to try and steal credit at work, but I genuinely cannot understand why you would try to compete with our boss! Do you want to throw our boss under the bus to secure yourself a position at Lawson Global? I can't understand that, either! You even said you wanted to talk to our boss, yet she's standing right before you. Do you recognize her?" Danny spread his hands as he stood beside Angeline. "My boss wanted both of her companies to work together. This is such a simple matter. Would it really require an outsider to persevere and work hard for it to succeed? Isn't that a complete joke?""Alright, stop being cheeky!" Angeline gestured for Danny to sit back down. "Let's talk about the partnership. Jamie, hand over the documents concerning the collaboration to the representative of Vitality Biotech."Asher told Helen, "Ms. Helen, I will truthfully inform Mr. Lawson Senior and the other directors about today's inc

    Helen hung up without waiting for Ned's response.On the other end, Ned listened to the phone's hang-up tone and finally hung up after a moment's pause.Trevor looked at him. "Was that from Vitality Biotech?""Has Vitality Biotech told us when Mr. Reilly will return our call?" Ned looked up at his assistant. "Mr. Reilly's assistant said that he went to Lawson Global to discuss a project this afternoon, and he'll call us back when he's done," Trevor said. Ned's fists clenched, and he pressed his thin lips together tightly.He wondered if it was indeed Angeline."Stop waiting around!" Ned picked up his phone and stood up. "Vitality messaged us and said that it would be an online meeting. Other than that, we'll have to prepare for the worst!"The worst outcome would be having to pay Vitality Biotech another 30 billion, as stipulated in the contract.Fletcher Corporation didn't have that kind of money. They would have no choice but to declare bankruptcy. Vitality Biote

    Ned's words hurt Ingrid. She sniffed. "I haven't stooped so low that I need a woman's help!" he snarled. "Just be concerned about yourself!"Ned hung up. Knowing that Angeline had blocked him, he drove straight to Lawson Global and waited patiently for her. He saw Danny winding out of the building, skipping happily to his car before he left. Ned exited his car, lighting a cigarette as he gazed at the building silently. He thought he and Angeline would stay with each other forever. He never expected them to drift so far apart. Fletcher Corporation was where he began, but his business remained stagnant despite his many years there. Angeline, on the other hand, always seemed incredulously competent. She had nothing besides Sean's support when they first divorced. Not only did she become a mother, but she also established Vitality Biotech Group in just four years. The group had grown so formidable that even Marvonia was wary of it. Ned's fingers trembled slightly as he drew th

    "No. I have to stay with you," Lenny insisted, unwilling to release the umbrella.Angeline glanced over at a cafe on the sidewalk. Three minutes later, she and Ned were sat across from each other at the cafe. His gaze was fixated on her as he struggled to maintain his composure. In a hoarse voice, he began, "Congratulations—""Did you come all the way here to congratulate me?" Angeline brought her coffee near to her lips. "I remember I told you to stay away from me. I find it very annoying."His grip around the coffee cup tightened as he asked, "Did you establish Vitality Biotech Group?"The million-dollar question finally struck Angeline. Having no intentions to hide it from him, she nodded. "Yes. Did you come to beg me for Fletcher Corporation?"Ned felt different hearing her admission directly compared to hearing it from the grapevine. His eyes grew red as a smile spread across his face. He said earnestly, "Angie, you've always been very talented. I weighed you do

    Fortunately, karma found Tommy well. Angeline made sure that he received the treatment he deserved in prison. Now that the Yates family was at their end without Ned's protection, every day would feel like torture to Tommy. Lenny drove Angeline away, and Ned no longer pursued them. He stood exasperated in the rain, letting the rain drench his hair and suit. He finally picked up his phone after it rang for the sixth time. As he listened to Trevor ramble on about his conversation with Vitality Biotech Group at the other end of the phone, he croaked, "Apply for bankruptcy."Trevor paused. "I'm sorry, Mr. Fletcher, but I don't think I heard you properly. Beg your pardon?""You heard me. Begin the bankruptcy proceedings!" Ned hung up immediately. He thought there was no longer any reason for them to continue struggling. He'd resorted to giving up because he had no other options. Fletcher Corporation had floundered once before, and they couldn't afford to fail once again. Vita

    Lenny spun around, only to find Angeline, who was dressed in her casual clothes. He blurted, "Ms. Angeline, please head in first.""No!" Brayden smirked. "I finally got to meet you, Angeline. Why don't you let me in?"Angeline's gaze swept past the two bodyguards shadowing him and returned to him again. "I've no idea how you came up. To my knowledge, Grand Court Residences has strict security measures. Non-owners aren't allowed to enter.""Well, isn't that a coincidence! I live just below your floor. I haven't been back for ages, but I climbed two flights of stairs to come here once I learned you live on the top floor. But this brat, Lenny, is stopping me from ringing the doorbell." Brayden seized the chance to complain to Angeline.Watching her amused expression, he slapped his head in realization. He extended his hand hastily. "I forgot to introduce myself! I'm Brayden Green, and I'm… Shane's best friend before the Lawson family adopted him. Night Palace's a small joi

    As soon as the words were out of Angeline's mouth, the sound of lounge slippers padding across the floor rang out. Yasmine ignored the shock on Ned's face and turned to reach for Sean. "Hold me, Daddy!"Sean smiled and lifted her into his arms. Then, he stood beside Angeline and looked at Ned imperiously. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Fletcher. I'm Shane Kingston. Thank you for pushing Angie away in the past—it led to my relationship with her."Ned knew precisely who "Shane" was. Just a few days ago, he'd seen the news about Melissa's press conference explaining her relationship with "Shane".His mind buzzed. He knew Sean and Shane looked similar enough for Dexter's men to have gotten the wrong person. However, he hadn't expected "Shane" to have anything to do with Angeline!"You… Are you the kids' father?" Ned's voice was incredibly shaky."Yes, and again, thank you for that!" Sean smiled. "We've never told anyone about this because I didn't want to endanger Angie and the kids.

    Sean didn't give Angeline the chance to finish. "You were right to bring this up to me!"He wrapped his arms around her from behind and continued, "You and the kids will always be my main priority. I know I said I want Melissa to remain safe and happy under my watch, but my feelings for her are purely familial love."She's family to me, and I must care for her. But you and the kids mean more to me than anything else in the world, including her."His honesty made Angeline feel slightly more at ease. She said, "Those are your words, not mine…""I swear on my life that I mean every word." He pressed a kiss to her head. "Can I stay here tonight? I want to sleep with you and the kids. Also, I came from Brayden's place upstairs, so no one will know I'm here.""Granddad made it clear that if anyone finds out about this, he won't allow the kids to see you anymore.""Got it. Don't worry about a thing. Mr. Lawson Senior raised me, and I owe him for that. I won't put him in a tough

    Angeline nodded without saying anything. Once Nathaniel was gone, she received a call from Sean."Now that everything has been taken care of, I want to give you a gift," he said, the smile in his tone evident. "Can you have the kids spend Friday night at Grand Court Residences? I want to show all three of you my gift on Saturday."He missed Yasmine and Xavier terribly. Before resolving the issue with Melissa, he hadn't dared to say he wanted to see them. Even if Angeline were okay with it, Robert probably would've objected to his wishes. Now that the dust had settled, he couldn't wait to see them."I don't call the shots regarding the kids now. I'll have to ask Granddad," Angeline said."I'll talk to him about it." Sean was worried Robert would take his anger out on her. "This all started because I insisted on being with you, so I'll handle it. I'll visit Mr. Lawson Senior later today."Angeline didn't know how Sean's conversation with Robert went, but Robert had Asher drop

    That night, Melissa called Sean. "Shane, let's publicly announce our divorce. We can tell everyone that we only got married on paper so the Lane family could offer you its protection."Tell them that Dexter repeatedly tried to harm you so he could take the Kingston family fortune, and tell them how he tried to snatch you from the Lane family so he could secretly deal with you."She paused, then continued, "Now that Dexter's in prison, we can get a divorce, and Lori can adopt me as her daughter. We'll become cousins, and we'll still be a family.""Melissa…"Sean was surprised. He didn't expect her to see the light in such a short time."Since you don't have any feelings for me and won't ever make me your wife, I'll settle to be Lori's daughter. That way, you'll always be my family!" Tears streamed down Melissa's face as she spoke. "I adore Lori and want to be her daughter.""Alright," Sean said."Can you head to Keman with me, then? We can visit Dad together before getting

    Melissa stared at Lori, who chuckled gently. "It's alright. There's no need to rush into anything. Take your time to think about it. Get good rest for a few days, then go shopping with me. We can buy some clothes to keep up with the changing seasons."I heard from Brayden and Sean that you're the expert in fashion and dressing up. I've always wanted a daughter who could shop, exercise, travel, café hop, and go on spa days with me."She paused and continued, "I didn't get to do any of this with you because you weren't in the best state before this. Now, though, you're all better. You're back to normal, and you've regained your memories!""I'd love that!" Melissa said without hesitation. She'd only done these things with her mother and Emelia in her dreams, but that was all they were—dreams. She was delighted now that Lori was back and willing to make her dreams come true.Sean sat on the couch and sipped his coffee. He knew Lori was doing everything she could to make his life ea

    Melissa nodded. Sean said, "I know you have no company management experience. Mr. Lane might have entrusted Trustworth Group to me, but it's still yours. Before you find someone to take over, my plan for the company is still to move its focus back to Lonla."The global situation isn't the best now, and Lonla is the safest place for expansion. That's why the company's focus has to return to Lonla—""You can hand the company over to Brayden," Melissa interrupted. "The only people in this world I trust are you, Dad, and Brayden. Now that Dad's in prison and you don't want me anymore, Brayden is all I have left.""I'm still your kin, Melissa. I won't kick you to the curb and leave you to die. Nevertheless, Trustworth Group is yours. You can have whoever you want to manage it. Brayden is capable of that." Sean looked at Brayden. "What do you think? Are you willing to take over Trustworth Group?""I'll do it as long as Melissa is okay with it!" Brayden nodded. He turned to look

    "That's not it! I've always been willing to care for you, and I'm more than willing to care for you in the future! It's not something that I'm forced to do…" Brayden feared his words would inadvertently hurt Melissa, so he decided not to continue in that vein.He said, "C'mon, you should head downstairs to eat something. You've already slept the day away.""I don't want to eat!" Melissa lay down again and pulled the sheets around herself. She said dully, "I want to sleep for a bit longer. Shut the door on your way out."Seeing that she'd already shut her eyes and started weeping, Brayden said softly, "I'll have the kitchen keep the food warm for you. Remember to call me when you wake up, okay? I'll be right downstairs!""Okay." Brayden left the room after hearing Melissa's muffled reply. He shut the door behind him.Melissa remained upstairs. She didn't head downstairs, even when Sean returned. Sean had already spoken to Angeline on the phone and told her he wouldn't meet

    Melissa slept in her room and only woke up at night. She removed her headphones and opened her red, swollen eyes. She stared dazedly at the night sky, only returning to her senses when her headphones fell out of her hands.Brayden, who'd been waiting outside this whole time, heard them fall to the floor and hurried into the room. He saw Melissa sitting cross-legged on the bed. She propped herself on one arm while leaning down to pick up the headphones.He hurried forward and picked them up for her, then remained on one knee by the bed. He looked up at her and said, "You slept for ages, Melissa. Do you want to have anything to eat? I got all your favorites, and there are different cuisines. I also got your favorite fruits and snacks!"He'd already had the maids throw out the food he'd bought at noon. Then, he'd had his subordinate buy a fresh batch.Melissa turned to look at him dazedly. She said hoarsely, "Brayden…""I'm here," he said. "C'mon, should we get something to eat

    Melissa knew Sean well. So, it was impossible for her not to know if he was being serious. Sean was indeed threatening her, and he was using his life to do it. That way, she wouldn't dare to harm Angeline for fear of hurting him.She loved Sean so much that she could give up her life for him. She wondered why he was treating her that way. He knew she wouldn't allow even the slightest possibility of her threatening his safety.Just then, Sean received a call from Brayden. He said, "...Yeah, I've already picked Melissa up. We're heading to Southstream Manor now… Yeah, you can head over there. Buy some food on your way—Melissa probably hasn't eaten anything yet. She should be hungry."At his words, Melissa couldn't hold back her tears any longer. She covered her face and started sobbing. She'd spent her whole life dreaming of becoming Sean's wife, but he was now in love with someone else and no longer wanted her.Yet, she couldn't do anything about the situation, or she'd be hurting
