Yasmine happily showed the e-wallet's QR code on her watch. "Thank you! Just the gesture itself is enough. Mommy said we shouldn't take too much pocket money because we're still young." The vibe in the living room was livened because of Yasmine, prompting the Hooper relatives to give even more pocket money to the twins. Jessica sat at the side with Sandy as she watched on with a warm smile. Her eyes were focused on the twins. Jeremy had not seen Jessica for years, so he approached her for a quick chat. Her responses to Jeremy were smooth, as she was now mentally stable."Now I know why you insisted on adopting Angeline as your granddaughter," Jeremy said while smiling at Robert. "It's because Angeline looks just like Jessica!" Sandy became nervous. "Right? I also adopted Sean because he resembled Jessica." Robert sipped his tea. Jeremy worried about triggering Robert's sadness at the mention of Sean, so he quickly changed the subject. The dinner's atmosphere was de

These were all in Robert and Jeremy's plan. The Hoopers also received the news from the Internet before Jeremy's candle-blowing and wish-making segment of his birthday banquet. But Jeremy didn't take it too seriously. When he went to the washroom to tidy himself before the candle-blowing event, he told his assistant, "Have the photographer take some good shots later. After it's over, release the news about Nathaniel's successful proposal. "Also, tell them the Hooper family has been preparing for this proposal ceremony from a week ago. Who does that Fletcher guy and that celebrity think they are? How can they compare to my grandson and granddaughter-in-law?" The more the Hooper family demonstrated how much they valued Angeline, the easier it was to dispel any rumors about Angeline involving Ned and Ingrid. "Remember to protect the children's privacy when sending the photos. Mr. Lawson Senior and his family still don't want the kids to be known by the public," Jeremy added.

Seeing Yasmine's excited look shined by the illuminating fireworks, Jessica knelt and said, "If Yasmine likes it, we can also have a fireworks show in our garden.""You're the best, Beautiful Ms. Lawson!" Yasmine hugged Jessica with her arms around Jessica's neck while nuzzling her lovingly with her chubby cheeks, making Jessica laugh. The fireworks show lasted for over ten minutes. Fireworks of different colors ascended into the sky, forming different shapes and dazzling the eyes. As the fireworks show ended, the lights on the observation deck slowly lit up one by one. The warm orange light extended to a heart-shaped flower bed not far away. Nathaniel had changed into a suit. He held a large flower bouquet as he smiled at Angeline at the end of the flower bed. The flowers were freshly flown in today, and each was meticulously selected. Behind Nathaniel was a giant heart comprised of flowers. There were various life-sized animals crafted with flowers, all in pairs. The gir

Still kneeling on one knee, Nathaniel took a pair of custom-made children's watches out from his pocket and asked the twins with a smile, "Xavier, Yasmine, will you two accept me into your family? I won't force you to call me 'Daddy'. You can keep calling me 'Uncle Nate'. But I still want your permission to join you and your mom as a family. "Let me be a part of your family and bear the responsibility of a father. Will you two accept me?" Yasmine furrowed her brows. She was about to say she had a dad who was on a mission, but Xavier pinched her hand. Yasmine only then remembered Robert telling her it was an act. She turned to look at the photographer, who kept taking pictures of them, and then at Angeline. When she saw Angeline smile at her, Yasmine sweetly replied, "Okay! I'll accept you for now!" Nathaniel grinned from ear to ear and helped Yasmine put on the white diamond kid's watch on her wrist. He then looked at Xavier. "Xavier, will you accept me into your family?" N

It even had a "hottest" tag behind it. The netizens who hounded Angeline and scolded her because Ned broke up with Ingrid all widened their eyes in shock. They had all thought Ned was going to remarry Angeline. They questioned why she had received a successful proposal from Nathaniel instead.Especially those liveliest, most jubilant of Ned and Ingrid's supporters, who blamed Angeline for their favorite couple breaking up, thinking she got in the way of their relationship, were taken aback. And now, the one they claimed intruded on Ned and Ingrid's relationship was getting engaged. Some of Ingrid's fans refused to accept it, saying that Angeline had initially promised Ned she would r

UpAllNight: "You all are scumbags! You scold Angeline because your favorite couple broke up, insisting on dragging Angeline into your drama. The biggest mistake Angeline had made was marrying Ned. The day they registered their marriage, she fell into a coma. This really shows that Ned is incompatible with Angeline!" World'sRunnerUp: "These Ingrid fans sure are an interesting bunch. Every time something happens to your idol, you blame it on Angeline. Was the stuff Paparazzi Aiden shared not obvious enough? Ingrid intruded on their relationship after Ned lost his memory. She pretended to be Angeline to get closer to him. She's a cunning thief who stole someone else's man. Yet, you lot still dare to be arrogant in front of Angeline. The biggest misfortune in Angeline's life was getting involved with Ingrid and Ned!" Then, there was this Twitter post. Squirrel&Fishie: "Ingrid got together with Ned by pretending to be Angeline. Now that Ingrid decided to stop pretending and return to

Angeline said to Nathaniel sincerely, "Thank you…""Don't sweat it! I'm just doing my job. Hooper Group is a listed company. Ned and Ingrid's exaggerated story was hyped so much today that it crashed Twitter's server twice! Now that news of the Hooper and Lawson families' marriage is out, I'm sure even more people will be paying attention. Hooper Group's stock will shoot up following the marriage alliance with Lawson Global!"Nathaniel smiled and said, "Consider this a win-win situation." Seeing Angeline just smile without checking the top trends on her phone, Nathaniel said, "Ned mentioned on the show that you're his whole world. Paparazzi Aiden even exposed that Ingrid got close to Ned by pretending to be you. Then, Ned ended his engagement to Ingrid after he recovered his memories.""So? Just ask away!" Angeline said with a smile. "Since you've helped me this time, I'll satisfy your gossip curiosity." "Now that you know Ingrid got together with Ned by pretending to be you,

"Mr. Lawson Senior and my grandpa have been planning this marriage alliance for a while. How could this be sudden? Plus, didn't the media report that I'm dating Angie? Didn't you read the news?" Nathaniel mocked. "Quit joking around! How could the others know when I don't know myself? Back then, the media was just making up stories and writing nonsense. You're already staying in Grand Court Residences, so when the media said you were living together, we all just brushed it off. Who would've thought you're actually serious?" Kieron continued painfully, "Oh God! Now that you're together with Angeline and the Lawson and Hooper families have formed a marriage alliance, my grandpa will soon give the final approval for me and Lara! Once we're engaged, I can't date the pretty ladies anymore." Kieron said after wailing, "You're not considerate, my man. Why didn't you invite me to your proposal?" "It's my grandpa's birthday today. We didn't have a birthday banquet because we were prepar

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
