Asher had worked for Robert long enough to know him well. He knew Robert hadn't stopped worrying about whether Angeline could hold the fort down at the Lawson family once he was gone.It wasn't because Robert doubted Angeline's abilities. It was because the Lawson family had announced to the world that Angeline was an adoptive granddaughter to protect Jessica.The worst part was that Angeline hadn't been raised by the Lawsons as Sean had been. She had only become a member of the Lawson family after she was fully grown.No one dared say anything now that Robert was still alive, but Robert was worried that the company's employees would rebel against Angeline once he was gone.Even Sean had only received their acknowledgment after getting engaged to Monica. After Sean had left, no one had caused a fuss, partly because Robert was there to hold the fort down. The other reason was that Angeline was the only one suitable for the job.Things would be different once Angeline married Nathan

"It's just that Ms. Lane heard Mr. Lane and Mr. Kingston arguing about something. She must have gotten anxious because she got out of bed, but then she fell, and her head was hit by some light medical instruments." Usman knew that Brayden was one of them, so he did not hide anything."How are things now?" Brayden asked."It's not looking good. The blood clot in her brain from falling off the building became bigger, so she had an operation to remove the clot. The doctor says that… Ms. Lane doesn't seem to have the will to live. Mr. Lane couldn't accept it, so his blood pressure skyrocketed. He's holding Ms. Lane's hand right now and talking to her while Mr. Kingston is keeping them company in the hospital room," Usman explained, sighing. Brayden was puzzled over Usman's mention of Melissa not having the will to live. He wondered what had happened. "Alright. If anything happens, give me a call at any time." Brayden walked out of the elevator and returned to his own home. He was

Nathaniel saw the marriage contract and appeared in Angeline's office within an hour. He briskly handed her two signed copies. "I've signed them, and you should, too. Let's start notifying the public. Getting married within a month will be rather rushed, so let's get engaged within a month instead and have the wedding within six months. What do you think?""Have you gotten a lawyer to look over the contract? I'm surprised that you signed it and sent it over here so quickly." Angeline frowned."How could I let a lawyer look at it? Look at those clauses you added at the end. 'We're just husband and wife by name and won't consummate the marriage'… etc. You even added that if either of us requests a divorce, then it must be done with no questions asked, and there is to be no division of assets. If Hooper Group's legal department saw this, my grandfather would be sure to find out, and he'd beat me to death! He'll think I'm forcing you to sign it so I don't have to take responsibility!

Nathaniel sent Angeline to and from work like a normal boyfriend would. Before Jeremy's birthday, the news about the successors of Hooper Group and Lawson Global dating began to spread throughout the community.Ned caught wind of it as well.However, his first reaction was disbelief.Although things between him and Angeline were impossible because of what had happened with Anne and Henrietta, Ned felt that Angeline still loved him.After all, they had once been so in love, and Angeline had been willing to give up her life for him.He felt that Angeline was only refusing to forgive him and get back together with him because he was connected to Anne's death and also because he had shielded the beast who had killed Henrietta.Given how deep their feelings had been for each other, he didn't think Angeline would ever marry someone else. The TV show "Survival Island" was due to begin the next day.The shooting for the program began at the airport, so Ned was busy packing his bags.

16-year-old Angeline was smiling faintly in the photo, but her eyes were unusually bright. No one would ever be able to tell what she had experienced.Ned's eyes reddened. He missed her so much. He missed his Angeline.Even at this point in time, he would sometimes think about the day of his 26th birthday. Angeline had walked into that room wearing an oversized puffer jacket and told him, "I don't want you anymore, Ned."Whenever he dreamed of that scene, he would always beg her desperately for another chance, but the only thing he could do was watch her leave."I'm going to get you back!" Ned said to Angeline's photo. "I will!""Survival Island" would be using Lawson Global's equipment from the start to the end, and even the live broadcast software was from Silent Voice. Thus, everyone in Lawson Global was focused on its first broadcast.The live broadcast started when the celebrities flew to the island on a small plane.Thanks to the promotion the celebrities had done befo

He also said that they would be getting married very soon.After that, Melody acknowledged the news about their divorce and announced that she would participate in "Survival Island".Melody had chosen the TV show as her first public appearance back in the limelight, and her fans were very supportive.Some fans were confused and asked why Melody had not chosen to star in a movie for her comeback entrance but a TV show instead. It was very different from her previous career.At the height of her popularity, Melody had never appeared on any TV shows, and she had explained during interviews that actresses needed to maintain a certain air of mystery. She felt that if she partic

Melody's addition had successfully attracted attention to "Survival Island" before it even started broadcasting. It had also accomplished the goal of exposing Archie's true colors. The issue of Archie not paying child support also became a trending topic.The truth was that Melody had sued Archie in order to get child support, as he was pretty well-known in the entertainment industry. She felt he would be sure to pay the child support if the issue blew up, as he had a reputation to maintain. She also hoped that he would stop blacklisting her.As expected, after following Laurel's instructions, Archie gave Melody all the support fees he owed her and promised not to blacklist her anymore. He begged her not to say anything damning about him.Melody took the money and promised him that she would not. After all, he was still Colton's father. The better his prospects were, the more money Colton could receive in child support.Now that "Survival Island" was getting so popular, she was s

Conrad excitedly told Gareth, who was beside him, that his movie had only taken three seconds to load.The others all checked their Internet speed as well. Christopher also tried out the Internet speed and randomly selected 23 high-resolution movies. It only took him five seconds to download all of them."Oh, my!" Christopher's eyes widened. "Even the Internet at my house isn't this quick! Let me see if I can play any games!" Christopher took out his gaming laptop, which startled Conrad and Gareth. "Who the hell would bring a laptop when going to the wilderness?""Didn't the crew say that we would have Internet access the entire time we're on the island? Since we have Internet access, there must also be electricity. So apart from the time that we're shooting… I mean, I think it's okay for me to play games while we're on break, right?" Christopher had already started a game.Christopher, Conrad, and Gareth all cried out in surprise at how fast the Internet was, even though

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
