Sean's tone softened as he looked Angeline in the eyes. He said to Brian, "I just wanted to ask what we're going to do to the man who got Melissa pregnant when we catch him. We can't call the police, after all. I'm worried her heart won't be able to handle it if she finds out."

"Have you already got him?" Brian's anger was evident. "Bring him to me! I'll kill him!"

"Not yet. If everything goes well, we'll catch him by today. What I meant was whether I should lock him up and try to find out whether anyone put him up to it. Rest assured that I'll avenge Melissa. She's like my sister, after all. She's family and means more to me than life itself."

Brian fell silent for a while, seemingly composing himself. Then, he said, "We'll go with your plan, but I want him dead once you've gotten the information out of him. I'll kill him and his family for daring to take advantage of my daughter!"

Sean hung up and put his phone into his pocket. He looked at Angeline. "Is that enough for you, Ange

    "Wait. I have something to ask you." Angeline watched Sean for a while. When she saw he didn't intend to sit, she wrapped the bathrobe tightly around herself and sat on the couch. "Are you working with Bart Doltova?"His gaze darkened at the mention of Bart. He turned to look at her. "Did Brayden tell you about him?""Do you know that Bart is involved in human and organ trafficking?" she asked.When he didn't say anything, she cut to the chase. "Was Melissa's heart purchased from Bart?""Don't you think you care about Melissa's heart way too much, Angeline?" Sean had thought so for some time now. He just hadn't pondered about the matter because she said it had to do with one of Vitality Biotech's research projects.In hindsight, there were loopholes everywhere. Even if she wanted to gather people with Rh-negative blood types for an experiment, wouldn't it be easier to get other people to help than to approach the heiress of Trustworth Group?As long as Vitality Biotech was willin

    Eric and Danny leaned against the door. They were deep in conversation about something. Eric waved a hand and shook his head, gesturing for Danny to look at Thomas, who was talking to Heather. Danny immediately went in and plopped down between Heather and Thomas. He even clapped his hands and called out to Yasmine, who nestled in Heather's arms. He wanted her to move over. It was evening. The sunset glow crept in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, painting the interior a warm orange. Angeline sat there with Xavier in her arms while she listened to Yasmine playing with Danny. She gradually calmed down.When she opened her eyes again, she was in the hospital. "Ms. Lawson, you're awake!" Jamie hurriedly went up to her. Angeline's hand twitched. She saw the needle stuck in the back of her hand, and she asked in a hoarse voice, "What happened to me?""You had a high fever of nearly 40 degrees," Jamie replied in a low voice. "I only found out when I received a call from the suite'

    Angeline laughed softly. "Are you treating me like a bosom friend?""There are no real friends in life, only partners who can both benefit from a situation." Monica's voice was firm. "I'm very interested in Lawson Global's Silent Voice! I'm pretty sure our mall can join you…"Angeline was sharp and caught on immediately to what Monica was hinting at.She gathered herself. "How?""Steele Group is now letting all their business owners choose between two options. The brands who use their platform aren't allowed to join Silent Voice! However, Silent Voice is trending right now, and its popularity is increasing steadily! "Besides, I have more confidence in you. I don't think that you would do anything that would cause a loss, so… our mall will join! Once we do, all the brands who've signed contracts with us will follow suit! "The legal department of Scott Incorporated has already looked at the contracts our mall has with the business owners. Unless they no longer want to work with u

    Rafael narrowed his eyes when he saw the empty ward. He put down the food he had brought and took out his phone to glance at it.The nurse saw him inside, so she came in to tell him that Angeline had already been discharged.Rafael didn't reply. Then, he left the food behind and strode out of the room with a cold expression.The nurse was rather surprised. When he had come to the hospital that morning, he had been a polite and bright man, but his current expression was grim and sinister.At 2:30 pm that day, Angeline signed the contract with the company from Keman they were collaborating with. The process was simple, and she left for the airport right after that. The car had just left the building of the company when Rafael appeared out of nowhere and blocked Angeline's car.Rafael had a backpack, and he looked bright like always. He stood beside the car and knocked on the window.Angeline looked up from the documents she was reading on her tablet and wound down the window slig

    When she saw the scheduled message Thomas had sent, Angeline felt a chill run through her body, and she shivered. "Stop by the roadside!" Angeline put down her laptop and called Thomas, but his phone was off.Angeline felt her heart leap into her throat. She looked at the message he had sent her and gritted her teeth. Then, she called the number Sean had used the first time he had gone to visit Melissa when she was in hospital. The phone rang for a long time before someone finally picked up."Hello…" When Angeline heard Sean's tired, hoarse voice, she gripped the phone tightly and said, "It's me. Can we meet for a short while?""I'm a little busy right now. Can we meet tomorrow?" Sean said gently.Angeline closed her eyes and asked, "Did something happen to Melissa?"Sean fell silent for a moment. He thought of how Angeline had been too concerned about Melissa's heart and how the man they had caught at dawn had screamed so desperately that Melissa should die. That man had sa

    "His sister died. Melissa has his sister's heart. Thomas and his sister, Tina, grew up together. They were very close. Tina was still healthy and alive when someone dug her heart out! How could he not be filled with hatred?" Angeline said, "If it were me, I would've gone to kill Melissa too!""You came to Keman for him?" Sean looked up. His eyes were bloodshot from a sleepless night, and the folds of his eyelids were creased deeply, making his eyes look even more deep-set than usual."Yes. I came here to stop him from committing murder. I promised him to investigate this incident and make sure the one who murdered his sister would be punished by law," Angeline said.Sean leaned back against the couch and looked up silently at Angeline.Angeline's fists clenched on both sides, and she exhaled deeply. "Sean, he saved our son's life. We owe it to him!""Melissa doesn't owe him anything. The heart went to her through perfectly normal procedures! If you had investigated it properly, yo

    Angeline had to admit that she wouldn't."You can't use that as an example. Firstly, my grandfather and mother didn't hurt anyone! Secondly, don't you know them? They wouldn't hurt anyone for their own benefit."Sean leaned back against the couch. He pressed his lips together and said nothing, but it was already clear that he wouldn't let Thomas go."Hand him over to the police, then," Angeline said. "If you insist on seeking justice for Melissa.""Since you know about Bart, you must have some evidence," Sean spoke slowly. "Give me the evidence, and I promise he'll be alive until Melissa is out of danger."Sean didn't want Angeline to get involved in anything that could threaten her safety."Would you want him dead if anything were to happen Melissa?" she asked. Sean's brow furrowed tightly. "Brian would want him dead! Of course, I would have the same opinion."There weren't many people Sean cared about in the world. Melissa had grown up with him, and when everyone had said th

    Angeline closed her eyes. She looked at how determined Sean was to keep Thomas locked up because of Melissa, and she sat down opposite him."Let's make a deal." She looked at him. "Hand Tom over to me, and I'll give you the evidence. I'll take Tom back to Lonla and keep an eye on him. I won't let him appear near Melissa again, so he won't be able to threaten her safety!""Angie, Melissa was stabbed four times, and she fell from the sixth floor." Sean's breathing was unsteady. His dark eyes were clearly filled with suppressed anger. "She isn't out of danger yet! Do you think I can hand him over to you right now? He'd better be praying that Melissa will be alright!""Alright, I understand. It doesn't matter whether Tom once saved your son or not. It's not important to you at all. If Melissa dies, you'll make sure Tom dies, too! You won't even hand him to the police because you know very well how Melissa got her heart."You're afraid that the police will find Bart, and you have a co

    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
