Although Ingrid had admitted at the airport that it was all her fault, her fans and people on the Internet still speculated that she had fled abroad because she couldn't win against those investors.

Others also surmised that Ned must have promised to get back together with Ingrid and to have a new start abroad as long as she didn't release the recording. Ned must have sacrificed himself to protect Angeline.

However, the attention died down immediately when Lawson Global announced the launch of their newest microchip at a new product press conference.

At their new product launch, Lawson Global announced an ecological chain of products. What amazed everyone was that once the system was completely updated, anyone who had the full range of products would receive a brand-new AI butler who could assist them in daily life.

The promotional video included a detailed display of smart lifestyle products and auto-driving. It promised an unimaginable convenience in life and at work. It felt as

    Melissa had been a bright, confident lady. She had enjoyed appearing at events in the past. Perhaps she was in poor health after falling off the building, she rarely appeared in public. The only time the media had captured photos of her was when she went to the mall with Brian. She had stuck closely to her father the entire time, and she was no longer as bright and lively as she used to be.There were reports that claimed that Melissa had suffered brain damage after falling off the building and only had the mental age of a six-year-old child.Angeline only looked through these news reports briefly.Sean had once told Angeline that Melissa had lost her memories and that she was now no different from a child. He was hinting at her to tell Thomas so that Thomas would stop going after Melissa. He wanted Thomas to know that Melissa had already paid for what she had done. However, even when Angeline saw the photos of how different Melissa appeared and how closely she stuck to Brian,

    "Katie is right!" George gritted his teeth. "Benjamin is our family's only descendant. We can't let anything happen to him no matter what!""You and Mom never managed to go to Krontos, so I'll go!" Katie said. "I don't think Benjamin's grandfather will just sit by and do nothing if he finds out that Benjamin is about to die! I'm sure he'll make Benjamin's aunt and that slut, Jodie, go for the test and see if they're a match for Benjamin!""But…" George thought about how the man in the car had looked at him, and a chill consuming him. "Would this work?""Mr. Lawson Senior knows that Benjamin is someone who shows his gratitude. He's just afraid that Benjamin won't repay him for his kindness and will only be grateful to us! "We'll just promise him that Benjamin can change his surname to Lawson. I believe that that will be great news for Mr. Lawson Senior. In any case, it'll be much better than having Angeline in the Lawson family!" Katie said.George immediately flew into a rage. He

    Juliet still felt that whether or not Jay was the daughter of Robert, the chairman of Lawson Global, the Lawsons should adopt Benjamin instead of Angeline.What currently bothered them the most was what Katie had said. Angeline had two children, and one of them was a boy. Compared to Benjamin, who was already an adult, Robert would be more inclined to leave his inheritance to a child who had grown up with him."I'll go and try!" Katie said. "Mom, George! Give me some money for the journey. I'll come back as soon as possible! If it doesn't work, I'll get Jodie back at least. Our dear Benjamin needs a kidney!"George thought for a minute and pulled out a cigarette from his pocket. He said thoughtfully, "But… we really don't have much money left! Why don't you go and see your man and see if he can help? After all, Benjamin is also his nephew. He can't just stand by and do nothing!""George! Don't you know I fell out with them because of Benjamin? My children don't even acknowledge me

    They were hoping that Katie would be able to come up with the money on her own and abduct Angeline so that she could donate a kidney to Benjamin.Morty, the middle-aged man who shared a room with Benjamin, had been eavesdropping on them ever since he saw them go downstairs to discuss their plot. After listening to their plan, he hastily walked away and called Miles' assistant.The Locke family paid him to keep an eye on the Emmerson family.After Mallory had caused trouble the last time, Miles and Zachary had gone personally to Krontos to meet Angeline. They had promised Angeline that they wouldn't let the Emmersons cause any more trouble.Angeline's status was now different. They were afraid that if the Emmersons made a fuss, it would affect the Locke family's business. Therefore, they were willing to spend some money to take care of things. Miles knew that Benjamin was at his limit. He wasn't doing as well as he had been before, and if he got a kidney transplant soon, he wo

    After hanging up, Miles pulled open the door and saw Mallory standing there. He frowned. "Why are you standing at the door? You should be keeping Zachary company downstairs…""Mom told me to call you down to eat!" Mallory bit her lip and asked, "Miles, do you think that the Emmersons are right? Does Angeline's adoptive mother in the photo I previously took look very similar to her biological mother in the photo I took?""Don't talk about that anymore. You leaked the photo, and if anything happens and triggers Mr. Lawson Senior, neither our family nor the Stones will be able to save you!" Miles warned harshly. "Alright, alright!" Mallory took his arm and promptly put her doubts out of her mind. She changed the subject. "Miles, I just saw the photos that my friend took last year when she sneaked into the engagement party of the Lawsons and the Hoopers. "I saw a photo of Shane, the one who suddenly returned to Kingston Empire in Keman. He looked exactly the same as Sean! If I hadn't

    Mallory thought about how nervous and angry Angeline had been when the photo had been posted on Twitter. It made Mallory wonder if there was any hidden story.She decided that she had to investigate the matter.Mallory knew that Miles didn't want to offend Angeline and that he didn't want her to do so either.She felt that she had been at fault for not having a good attitude previously. If she found out about something, she could have a good discussion with Angeline. Even if she had to give in and beg someone, she would do it as long as it could help her family get through their current difficulties. She would do anything.Unfortunately, Mallory didn't find anything after spending a large sum of money on the investigation.However, Anne's neighbor told Jamie that someone had been to the village where Angeline and Anne used to live and had asked about Anne and Angeline's past. It didn't take Jamie long to find out that Mallory was behind it.Jamie and Taylor didn't bother Angeline

    "I… I was just trying to help! I heard Philip on the phone that day. He said that Benjamin's biological mother looks very similar to Angie's adoptive mother! I even spent money to get someone to find out from Katie." Mallory's eyes turned red. "I just didn't want to see you having such a hard time…""Mallory, I've never scolded you before. I cleaned up your mess every time after you caused trouble! But I've told you many times not to interfere with Angie's affairs. Why didn't you listen? You haven't been helpful at all since the beginning. Instead, you've been causing me trouble!"Mallory looked at Miles and saw how he was suppressing his anger. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she said in a choked voice, "Miles… I didn't mean to cause trouble for you. I wasn't trying to find something to threaten Angie with. "I just thought that if I found anything, I could try to help Angie and gain favor with her so that she would help our family! Miles… I didn't have any bad intentions!"When

    Miles brought Mallory to Lawson Global to meet Angeline personally. But Angeline had no time to meet them as she had been in a meeting for the whole afternoon. The two kept waiting in Lawson Global's reception room until nightfall. Nathaniel heard that Angeline was working overtime that day, so he went to the office, bringing dinner with him. He saw Miles and Mallory sitting in the reception room through the huge floor-to-ceiling glass and asked Angeline's staff in the secretary's office, "Who are those people?" "I heard they are Ms. Lawson's old acquaintances in Oceanford. Ms. Lawson has been in a meeting that hasn't ended yet. We'd already asked the two to leave, but they kept waiting inside," the staff told Nathaniel everything, treating him like Angeline's pampered husband. "Looks like they're here to ask for Ms. Lawson's help." Nathaniel nodded. "How much longer will the meeting take?" "I don't know. There's no news from the meeting room. But I think it should be ending

    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
