Agatha looked at Damon in disbelief, staggering back two steps, almost falling. Fortunately, Delilah was quick and caught her in time.

"Damon, it’s one thing for you to speak to me like that, but how can you speak to Mom like that?"

At this moment, Delilah still didn’t understand the situation and thought that, in Damon’s heart, family members were the most important.

"And you—you're here now, but why are you still acting like this in front of everyone? Do you need me to remind you of the situation with the child in your belly? You really think you’re carrying my child?"

Damon had wanted to say this for a long time. As long as Delilah stayed at home and had the child, Damon wouldn't say anything to her.

But she insisted on causing trouble, dragging Agatha into it.

It wasn’t enough that she caused trouble, but she even came to Hazel’s place to do it. The Price family had tolerated these two women, but why should Hazel also be expected to tolerate them?

    At the hospital, Damon anxiously handed Agatha over to the doctor, then took Delilah for an examination. During the process, he found time to call Jamal and Kin. He only relaxed when they arrived at the hospital. "Dad, you’re finally here. Mom is in your hands now. Kin, take care of Delilah. I’ve got other matters to attend to, so I’ll leave first." Before either of them could respond, Damon rushed out of the hospital, but after running a few steps, he turned around and went back to Jamal. He explained the situation with Delilah’s pregnancy to him, asking him to find a way to explain things to Agatha carefully before leaving. Earlier, he had acted impulsively, but now, he couldn’t let Agatha know the child wasn’t his—it would be too much for her to handle, given her condition. After settling everything at the hospital, Damon quickly drove to Hazel’s villa. Since he had already said everything to her today, it was best to continue and explain things to h

    Before leaving, Damon had told Jamal that his visit to Hazel was highly secretive. Logically, Agatha and Delilah had been at home the whole time, so there was no way they should have known. And Damon’s visit to Hazel’s house was a spur-of-the-moment decision, not planned in advance, so there was even less reason for them to know. "I don’t know. It was Delilah who suddenly told me Damon went to Hazel’s house. I got so mad I didn’t think much about it." "Now that I think about it, there’s something off. Delilah had been with me at home the whole time. How would she know exactly where Damon went?" Jamal’s expression sharpened, a hint of the aura he had when he was the president of Price Corp in the past. "I told you before, Delilah is no simple character, but you wouldn’t believe me. Now you see, don’t you?" "From now on, keep your guard up around her. Don’t let her use you without you even realizing it. Look at how things have gotten between you and Damon

    Delilah hadn’t expected Agatha to suddenly step in and angrily threw a decorative object at Agatha, hitting her on the forehead. Everyone in the room gasped, and the nurse following behind quickly approached to check the wound on Agatha’s forehead. The nurses had realized by now that being a wife from a rich family wasn’t just about carrying a child. Unlike Agatha, who had been a rich family’s wife for many years, her position was far more secure. It was better to focus on Agatha and the benefits she could secure, rather than waste time flattering Delilah, who might be kicked out of the Price family at any moment. "Ma'am, are you okay? You’re bleeding. I’ll call a nurse to help you bandage it." After saying this, the nurse hurried off, leaving one nurse behind to stay with Delilah. It was their job. Seeing the dark expression on Jamal’s face and the blood on Agatha’s forehead, Delilah instantly quieted down. She had thought these people had already

    Delilah held her breath, staring directly into Jamal’s eyes, but didn’t dare say a word. Having stayed in the Price family for so long, she knew well that Jamal wasn’t as simple as he appeared on the surface. Although the outside world spoke of Jamal as gentle and refined, living with him for so long, she knew better. Jamal was the most favored child of Mark. The reason the company was handed over to Damon wasn’t because Mark disliked Jamal, but because it was Jamal’s decision. "Since Dad said so, let’s go with this arrangement. After all, it’s not Mom’s responsibility to take care of me, it should be Damon’s." "Before, I always blamed myself, thinking Damon needed to work, but I didn’t notice Mom’s health. Dad, don’t worry, if anything happens in the future, I’ll go to Damon. I won’t trouble Mom again." Seeing Delilah acting so understanding, Agatha immediately forgot how she had just angrily scolded the nurses. She was about to step forward and t

    Tonya knew that this day would come sooner or later, but she hadn’t expected it to be now. She had just finished doing the last task for Delilah. Delilah had told her that after this, she would be free and no longer needed to keep an eye on the CEO. Now, she could finally work without constantly looking over her shoulder, but the CEO had caught on at this moment. Well, it was better to be kicked out by Damon and find another job than to keep living in fear here. Moreover, with her work experience at Price Corp’s, finding another job would be easier. “Mr. Price, you wanted to see me?” “You seem so calm. I’m guessing you already know why I’m calling you. So, tell me, why were you keeping an eye on me for Delilah Hasani?” Staying calm because she knew this moment would come was one thing, but now that she felt the pressure from Damon, it was a whole different matter. Tonya’s legs went weak from fear, and she almost fell to her knees before Damon.

    “Mr. Price, actually, I haven’t finished what I was saying. In the investigation of Tonya, we also checked Miss Hasani’s phone, and we found other things.” Kin didn’t finish speaking but directly placed the prepared materials in front of Damon. The documents showed chat records between Delilah and others, and from the content, it seemed like it was definitely Marcus. There were also call records between her and this person. From these records, it was clear that Delilah and Marcus mostly communicated by phone calls. They probably thought this would avoid leaving evidence behind. It may have worked in the past, but now, Damon would ensure they always had Delilah’s phone under surveillance. “I thought by now, Delilah wouldn’t be stupid enough to contact Marcus again. But it seems she’s really this dumb.” The reason he hadn’t directly investigated Delilah’s phone before was because, in his mind, someone like her wouldn’t be foolish enough to make such a mis

    Sully initially had important work she couldn’t postpone. If it weren’t for Hazel mentioning that Damon would be here, Sully wouldn’t have made time to come. Even now, she was still on her phone, handling work tasks. “All right, stop working. Get ready to eat,” Hazel said as she put Sully’s phone away and dragged her to the dining table. She happened to seat her directly across from Damon. Sully’s face instantly darkened. These days, just seeing Damon’s face was enough to make her nauseous. If it weren’t for Xander being away at the company’s overseas headquarters, Damon wouldn’t have had so many chances to hover around Hazel. Just wait. She had already persuaded Xander to confess his feelings to Hazel once the collaboration between Queen Corp and HX was finalized. Even if Hazel didn’t accept his confession, the partnership between their companies would ensure their friendship wouldn’t be jeopardized. “Today marks the first official meal in my newl

    “Amber has always taken on only newcomers. It’s said that she enjoys the challenge. Not only that, but she only manages one person at a time,” Sully said. “The opportunity to work with her is highly sought after. Who knows what Jonah’s family did to secure this chance for their daughter,” Damon added, though he hadn’t looked deeply into the matter. After all, he wasn’t yet clear on Hazel’s next move. “Adele and Amber are friends. I’m not sure how they became close, but I suspect Adele must have done something to help Amber in the past,” Hazel remarked. “I’ve looked into Amber as well. She’s someone who repays kindness and avenges grievances without hesitation. She’s also a savvy businesswoman—she wouldn’t help Adele without a reason.” Hearing this, Damon decided he’d investigate Amber further. But before coming here, he’d already planned to discuss the Queen family fire with Hazel. After they wrapped up their current conversation, he glanced awkwardly at Sul

    At first, Chrissy hadn’t noticed, but now she realized just how skilled Gavin was at coming up with excuses.Even after all this, he was still trying to make excuses for himself. Did he really think she was a fool? That she would believe anything he said?"Or is it that you can’t even take it out? You’ve been with me just for my money and body, haven’t you? Now that you’ve had your fun, why are you still struggling? During our relationship, you haven’t lost out."She was right—if Chrissy didn’t reclaim the money from their relationship, Gavin had already made a fortune.If he hadn’t squandered the money and wasn’t so vain, those funds could have sustained him for the rest of his life.“Damon, let those ladies in.”Gavin's mind tightened, an ominous premonition rushing to his head. He wanted to stop it, but he could only stand there and watch the door, hoping the people coming in weren’t the ones he dreaded seeing.But as expected, he

    Parents who dote on their children will always support them as long as they don't make a major mistake. Chrissy had been blinded by Gavin, and now she couldn’t even see such a simple truth. “I brought them back to confront Gavin face to face, but I was worried you couldn’t handle it, so I thought we’d talk first. Since you’re so strong, let’s go upstairs and confront Gavin together.” Chrissy looked up at Damon, a hint of resistance in her eyes. She wasn’t strong at all, and she wasn’t ready to accept this so easily. It was all forced. She nodded and followed Damon upstairs with the three women. Chrissy was a relatively traditional girl, so in the Price family, her room was far away from Gavin’s. One was at the far end of the second floor corridor, and the other was at the opposite end. Gavin’s room was close to the stairs, and as soon as Damon reached the second floor, he could faintly hear some sounds coming from inside Gavin’s room.

    Damon had already discussed this matter with Grandpa Mark, so Grandpa Mark was not surprised by his actions now. However, the thought that he had just resolved one issue with Agatha and now had to deal with Gavin left him feeling uneasy."Chrissy, you and Damon go to the tea room downstairs. He has something to tell you. Whatever he says, you’re an adult now, so you must stay calm."Damon, who wasn’t sure how to begin, was relieved that Grandpa Mark had taken care of the arrangement for him.Chrissy’s bad feeling only grew stronger, but she still did as Grandpa Mark had said.Damon instructed the housekeeper to take the three women to a more secluded spot before leading Chrissy to Grandpa Mark's tea room."Damon, what’s going on? Why is it so mysterious? Just tell me, otherwise, I’ll never feel at ease," Chrissy started questioning as soon as they entered the tea room. Damon took a deep breath before finally speaking."Chri

    The private room wasn’t small, but the table was relatively small, likely a special arrangement by the restaurant. After all, since the restaurant prioritized confidentiality, it needed to ensure that guests felt safe while dining there. The small table set up this way was designed so that guests wouldn’t feel like their private conversations could be overheard. "Hazel, I’ve already ordered the dishes in advance, all of them are your and Grandpa Omar’s favorites, and I’ve included some snacks that’s suitable for breakfast. I’ll have the server bring it in right away." After saying that, Damon pressed the button in front of him. Within a few seconds, the door opened, and a server entered, respectfully looking at Damon. "Mr. Price, may I serve the dishes?" Damon nodded slightly, and the server bowed and left the room. Soon, a series of dishes were brought into the room by a line of servers. The dishes were abundant, and they looked as good as th

    No matter how you look at it, Hazel was the one who suffered the most from this incident, both mentally and physically.By the time Damon arrived at Hazel’s house, it was already past eight in the evening. Hazel had taken her medicine and was ready to rest, but when she heard that Damon had come to visit, she still went downstairs to greet him."Hazel, thank you. I know it must have been you who called Grandpa Omar and changed his mind. I need to sincerely apologize to you for the things my mother did.""Since it’s already so late, I’ve rescheduled the dinner to tomorrow morning. After my mom apologizes to you, she’ll head straight to the airport for a flight at 2 p.m."The press conference that was supposed to take place tomorrow morning had been canceled, saving them a lot of trouble."You don’t need to thank me. I just didn’t want my private matters to be exposed to the public. It has nothing to do with your family. Also, if your mother’s apolog

    "Mark, I need to make it clear. If her attitude improves, she can return after ten years. But if she remains the same, she’ll stay abroad indefinitely."Before coming to the Price family, Omar had first gone to the company to have an agreement drafted, detailing how this matter would be handled.He took out two identical copies of the agreement and handed one to Mark."Look, we’re not getting any younger. Who knows when we’ll be gone?"“To ensure Hazel doesn’t get into trouble, I’ve drafted this agreement in advance. Both of us will sign it on behalf of the Price Corp and Omar Corp.”Even if Omar didn’t bring it up, Mark was already preparing this agreement.Agatha living abroad with Jamal might not be a bad thing for the Price family.Seeing Jamal’s attitude toward Agatha, it was impossible to expel her from the Price family. For the sake of the family’s future, it was necessary for Agatha to reform.During her time abroad, it

    When the organizers announced the postponement, there was nothing anyone could do but return to their work.Fortunately, the tickets were still valid. The organizers assured them that the same tickets would be honored for the rescheduled event.Calculating the time, it seemed like the lecture would be in two days.Hazel answered the phone, and Sheila’s loud voice immediately came through.“Hazel, are you okay?! I just heard you were injured! I was going to visit you at the hospital, but I found out you’ve been discharged. Where are you? I’ll come right over!”Hazel paused for a moment. “I’m at the villa. You don’t have to—”Before she could finish, the call was abruptly disconnected. Hazel looked at her phone, already knowing that Sheila was definitely on her way.She had wanted to tell Sheila not to come today since they would meet in two days anyway, and Sheila was so busy with work. There was no need for her to make an extra trip.

    One option was to have Jamal and Agatha go abroad together, at least not returning until after they were both over sixty.The other option was to make the matter public, with Agatha offering a public apology to Hazel and promising that such a thing would never happen again.Hazel hesitated for a while before speaking, “Since sending her to the police isn’t an option, let’s combine these two choices. First, have Agatha apologize publicly, and then send her abroad to start over before she comes back.”Hazel's expression was calm, as if she were speaking about something unrelated to her.This was one of the things Omar liked most about Hazel—though she was kind, she was far from being a martyr.“I thought you’d soften after hearing what Jamal had to say, but it seems I underestimated you. This is the right approach. If those who make mistakes aren’t punished, they’ll make the same mistakes again next time.”Hazel merely smiled and didn’t respon

    Elias briefly checked Hazel and said there was nothing wrong, so she could be discharged. Since he would soon be pulled by Sully to check Hazel’s health again, he had already familiarized himself with her physical condition. Aside from the minor scalp injury, she wasn’t injured anywhere else. It seemed that her consistent physical exercise had given her a better-than-average physique. Elias had never encountered someone with such good physical health. Even the wound on her head was healing much faster than normal. If anyone other than him were treating Hazel, they would probably want to research her case, because her recovery was far from typical. If it weren’t for the fact that Hazel had a special identity, Elias might have even wanted to call his mentor to report this matter. After being discharged, Elias drove them back, and during the drive, Sully started telling Hazel about what had happened to her. "Hazel, there's something I nee
