Micah spoke quickly and confidently. As he spoke, the people who'd first disagreed with the idea fell silent."More importantly, 'Survival Island' won't have a wonky connection because it'll be streamed using Lawson Global's network. What will that tell the viewers? That our network is strong, stable, and has a wide coverage."It'll also show that our network has short latency. Won't that benefit us? Wouldn't that be a form of positive publicity for Lawson Global?" Micah was obviously excited."What does everyone else think?" Angeline asked. She started with Gary. "Why don't you start, Mr. Xanders?""Mr. Quilton may make things sound amazing, but my point still stands—we should be careful with this since Hooper Group doesn't think things will go well," Gary said.Micah looked a little nervous at his words."Does anyone else have anything to say?" Angeline asked.No one said anything."Alright, then. I can understand why none of you want to express your opinion so easily. Firstl

Robert had set his sights on Hanson partly because he felt Hanson was a pretty good guy and partly because he felt Hanson could help Angeline in her career. But Hanson didn't dare dream of being with Angeline.Angeline's phone rang as soon as the words were out of Hanson's mouth. It was Asher. Angeline had a feeling she knew what the call was about; she stopped Hanson from leaving and put the phone on speaker. "Hi, Mr. Millstone.""Hello, Ms. Angeline. Mr. Lawson Senior and Mr. Webb Senior are meeting for dinner; they wanted me to invite you to join them," Asher said cheerily.Angeline glanced at Hanson, who was smiling wryly. "Alright. Send me the time and place."She hung up and smiled amicably at Hanson. "I'm adopted, and you're the biological son. Who do you think would stand a better chance of going against their elders?"Hanson's eyes widened. He hadn't expected Angeline to be so humorous when she'd been so serious earlier. "Wait, you mean…""Mr. Webb Senior feels he owes y

Angeline had to admit that Dexter's eyes were similar to hers and Sean's. Coincidentally, neither of them were related by blood."I'm sure you've already looked into my background, Mr. Kingston. I wouldn't dare claim there was anything between us." She wiped her hands with a warm towel before pouring Dexter some tea."Have you met my nephew, Ms. Lawson? He looks a lot like Mr. Lawson, doesn't he?""Yes, but it's easy to see the differences now that I've seen him up close. His personality and demeanor aren't the same, either." She curled her lip.Dexter felt even more confident when he saw that. He smiled without responding. Instead, he pulled out a folder and handed it to Angeline. "I know you're busy, so I'll cut to the chase. I'm here today to discuss our cooperation, Ms. Lawson."She didn't open the folder. She tapped a finger on it and said, "And what would that be about? Mr. Shane and his wife met with me in Dmont, saying they wanted to bargain with me with their microchips.

Angeline had been targeting that lithography technique anyway."However, I want to leave the information at this price," Angeline said."I'm going to be in this country for three days. You can ask your technicians to prove the integrity of that!" Dexter said with a confident chuckle. "Since I'm working with you, it means I trust you."That afternoon, even though her schedule was extremely full, Angeline still made a trip to Lawson Global's branch in Cloudsville. She also made a trip to Cloudsville College so she could check out the lab.Marion and the others were overjoyed at the sight of Angeline."Why didn't you tell us that you were back? Come on, let's book a private booth at the restaurant we always go to! Did you know that it was almost going to shut down? Gregory bought the whole place!" Alva said with a chuckle."What's been up with you recently? I see you didn't bring your besuited boyfriend," Marion said as she poked Angeline's arm. "When's the wedding?"Reese shot Mari

"I heard you guys were dating before he passed," Gregory said, feeling his throat closing up. "I heard about all the horrible things my cousin did. You got drugged, didn't you? W-Was that when you did something with him?"Gregory had been there at Night Palace that day.Even though it had been dark in the private room, to the point where neither Marion nor Alva could recognize Sean, Gregory had somehow recognized him.Gregory had never thought about Angeline and Sean being together. After all, neither Marion nor Alva had brought it up in front of him since he was a guy.However, after Marion and Alva brought up the person who had helped them in Night Palace and asked about a wedding, Gregory finally sensed that something was off."How would you mistake that guy for Sean?" Angeline said with a gentle chuckle. "They just look similar. You've got the wrong guy.""Then could it be that legendary guy from Kingston Empire?" Gregory asked with wide eyes.If he remembered correctly, tha

"Okay!" Micah replied joyfully."By the way, you don't have to call me about something like this. You can make these decisions yourself, but feel free to call me if you run into any trouble," Angeline said.Micah was even more overjoyed. "Okay! Thanks!"After hanging up, Angeline washed her hands and sat down at the table. She watched Taylor setting down her lunch and exclaimed, "What a feast!"Jamie twisted open the thermos filled with chamomile tea. "Is Mr. Quilton trying to get Ingrid on the show? I heard that she's been taking jobs left and right recently. "Ever since she became Norwalk Corporation's ambassador, and after she began to gain popularity, she hasn't taken any roles in television shows. However, she recently agreed to star in two television shows. I was reading some entertainment news yesterday afternoon and read about how Ingrid's intensive job schedule is pissing off some directors."By Jamie's words, it was easy to tell that he didn't really approve of Micah i

Part of the digital innovation the chip offered was the ability to edit the footage as filming was going on, which required an extremely powerful chip. It was better for Angeline to take a look on her own than to hear someone else tell her about it.After lunch, Angeline went off to the set of "Mankind."The director brought Angeline to the monitors and explained everything to her.The actors stood in the studio with motion-tracking sensors plastered on the walls. They performed with nothing around them, but through the monitor, Angeline could see the visual effects and scenery being added on in live time through post-production.Even though it hadn't gone through proper post-production and further fine-tuning, it was already an impressive result."I remember you were involved in the filming of an overseas movie. Do you think our current chip technology can measure up to what they have over there?" Angeline asked Derek Lynch, the director of "Mankind.""I don't know much about ch

"Why did you kidnap me?" Angeline asked straightforwardly.Bart's smile widened when he noticed that Angeline wasn't afraid in the slightest. "Aren't you scared?""Since you thought of kidnapping me from an underground parking lot, that means you must have some inkling of who I am. You didn't cover my eyes and let me see your face, which means that you're either planning to kill me or that you weren't planning on hurting me in the first place. Why should I be scared?" Angeline said.In fact, Angeline could bet on the fact that Bart wasn't going to kill her.If he wanted to kill her, he wouldn't treat her so well. He would have just brought her to someplace much more terrifying and threatened her to get what he wanted. After that, he could kill her. That would be so much easier."You really are piquing my interest," Bart said, unable to help himself from reaching out and caressing Angeline's face.She turned away to avoid his hand. "Tell me what you want.""At first I wanted to h

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
