Jack and Andrea strolled hand in hand towards the banquet hall exit, their laughter filling the air.

Behind them, Rose Ferguson couldn't resist the urge to follow, with Valentine Anderson quickly trailing after her.

"President Valentine," a guest called out, recognizing him in the crowd.

Valentine Anderson's expression turned dark as he snapped, "get lost!" His fierce demeanor sent the guests scurrying away in fear.

Hurriedly, he made his way out of the banquet hall only to find Rose engaged in a heated discussion with Jack, who held onto Andrea's arm.

In a fit of anger, Valentine Anderson wordlessly clenched his fist and struck Jack in the face, his voice filled with menace. "Keep your hands off her!"

Jack staggered back, blood staining his lips, as Rose, now composed, sharply exclaimed, "Valentine Anderson, are you trying to make me a widow?"

Ignoring her, Valentine Anderson seized Andrea's hand and led her towards the exit without uttering a single word.

Andrea followed him calmly

    After making a solemn declaration, Valentine Anderson didn't linger. He swiftly got into his car and drove away.Andrea disdainfully tossed the flowers at the gateman, commanding, "Dispose of these!"She swiftly entered her car, and her driver promptly whisked her off to the Singers Group headquarters.Scheduling a board meeting to assess the shortcomings of the Vegas branch of Singers Group, Andrea also proposed establishing a committee to investigate any disloyal members. She was determined to weed out any traitors before initiating a comprehensive company restructuring.Upon arriving three minutes late to the boardroom, Andrea addressed the members apologetically, saying, "I regret my tardiness and assure you it will not happen again."The board members were visibly taken aback by Andrea's unexpected display of humility as the Chairwoman of the Singers Group.Andrea glanced at the time and realized it was already time for the business news segment. "Let's start with the business ne

    Despite still harboring feelings of upset over how she was treated five years ago, Andrea knew that Mrs. Anderson was still Pete's grandmother. She couldn't bring herself to be selfish and deny her son the chance to have a relationship with his grandmother."Mrs. Anderson, I cannot refer to you as my mother since I am not married to your son. I hope you can understand this. I'm unsure if I will remarry your son in the future, so please excuse me," Andrea stated firmly, not sugarcoating her words. She had no desire to continue the conversation with her former mother-in-law, who was behaving shamelessly.Mrs. Anderson was taken aback. She never expected Andrea, who had always seemed meek and complimentary towards her, to speak to her in such a direct manner. She was left speechless until Andrea walked away."Mom, let's go," Benita finally spoke up, tugging at her mother's arm.Mrs. Anderson blinked in confusion. She had assumed that Andrea would immediately show deference to her when sh

    Andrea gritted her teeth in anger and seethed his name through clenched teeth, "Valentine Anderson.""Okay, I will stop!" Valentine Anderson chuckled and replied.Andrea's face twisted in surprise; she had not anticipated Valentine Anderson's swift change of heart. It was uncharacteristic of him, but she breathed a sigh of relief. Being hounded by strangers was far from pleasant."Meet me at 9 p.m.," Andrea Singers instructed before abruptly ending the call.She climbed into her car and headed back to her mansion, where a throng of reporters awaited her at the gate.As her car approached, the reporters swarmed around her, bombarding her with inquiries."Mrs. Andrea Singers, what are your thoughts on Valentine Anderson's surprising love confessions?""You and Valentine Anderson have become the town's hottest topic. Many are eager to know if you will consider giving your ex-husband another chance."Andrea maintained a stoic expression, uninterested in entertaining the nosy journalists w

    Andrea's expression darkened as she listened to Tony on the phone. The organization she had been hunting for four years had brazenly entered the country under Tony's watch, even daring to make a move against her."Do you need help?" Andrea inquired. In the years since she began her search, she had not been idle. She had established a private security company that appeared ordinary on the surface to avoid causing public alarm, but beneath the facade, it wielded the weaponry to counter some machinery groups."I am not their target, Andrea. You are. If anything were to happen to you, I could never forgive myself," Tony stated, his voice heavy with guilt stemming from Mr. Singer's death."Tony, I understand," Andrea responded calmly.Andrea's expression was troubled as she stood apart from the well-wishers celebrating her engagement with Valentine Anderson. Sensing her unease, Valentine excused himself and approached her with a mix of concern and affection evident on his face."Andrea, is

    As their wedding approached in just three days, preparations were in full swing. Despite delegating most tasks to their personal assistants, there were certain important guests that Valentine and Andrea had to invite themselves."How are you feeling?" Valentine asked Andrea as they stood outside Val. Corp, where Andrea was to become the CEO as part of their marriage agreement."I'm not sure," Andrea replied, her mind preoccupied with worries about the safety of her loved ones since hearing the organisation entry into Vegas.Valentine wordlessly took her hand and squeezed it reassuringly."Let's not keep them waiting," Valentine said to Andrea, leading her inside.With an amiable smile, Andrea acknowledged him, and together they made their way into the company, immediately becoming the center of attention. The spectacle was unavoidable, given their President's media frenzy in Vegas City just the day before.Valentine Anderson didn't seem bothered by the speculative glances directed the

    Anxiety gripped Andrea as she tightly clutched the phone, her discomfort growing with each silent moment that followed her hesitant "Hello? Is everything alright?"No response came from the other end, leaving Andrea's face creased with worry as she waited in tense anticipation."Mrs. Anderson, are you there?" Andrea's voice quivered as she hazarded a guess at the caller's identity, but the silence persisted."Mother-in-law, can you hear me?" Andrea pressed on, her nerves fraying with each unanswered call.With a heavy heart, she finally ended the call and furrowed her brow in deep contemplation before turning on the television.A female broadcaster appeared on the screen, delivering the chilling news of a terrorist attack in Vegas City.

    As Andrea strode towards the river, Tony's heart raced with fear. He abruptly cut short his conversation with the Sheriff and rushed after her.Reaching out, Tony grasped Andrea's arm just as she stood only five feet from the river's edge. "What are you thinking? Are you considering ending your life over a man who betrayed and divorced you?"

"What do you mean?" she questioned.Caught off guard by Andrea's response, Tony struggled for words before finally regaining his composure.

Valentine realized who had rescued Pete, and his eyes burned with anger."Pete!" Andrea cried out in surprise and joy, tears rolling down her cheeks.

    Seeing this, Andrea was shocked and deeply disappointed. Her heart shattered into a million pieces as tears streamed down her face. Her lips trembled as she asked in disbelief, "Val, you—"She didn't know what to say, feeling suffocated as the air in the room seemed to press down on her. She shut her eyes in pain, tears continuing to roll down her cheeks."Andrea, if you want Pete to stay alive, marry me tomorrow morning. I'll be waiting for you at the church. If you fail to show up, don’t blame me for being ruthless." With that, Valentine Anderson turned on his heel and strode out of the room.Andrea collapsed to the floor, bursting into tears. She couldn't believe that Valentine doubted her. After years of marriage and knowing him, his lack of trust broke her heart.The door creaked open, and Agatha walked in to see Andrea on the floor.

    Lucas frowned; he hadn't expected Tony to scold him so furiously."Has he been knocked silly by the kick just now?" Lucas pondered.While mulling it over, he retorted coldly, "You've gone insane."After speaking, he turned to re-enter the house, but Tony stubbornly said, "I won't leave until you explain how you are Pete's father."Lucas was irritated by Tony's words, his eyebrows furrowing with impatience. He glared coldly and replied, "I'm not in the mood to talk nonsense with you. You’re probably drunk or drugged; that's why you're spouting this nonsense."Lucas didn't take Tony's accusation to heart at all. To him, it was utterly nonsensical and unreasonable.Gritting his teeth with clenched fists, Tony took a step forward, but he didn't rush to attack. He wasn't a masochist and feared another vicious kick from Lucas, whose martial arts skills were too good for him to compete with.Sneering, Tony cursed unhappily, "I'm not drunk. It's you and your family who are drunk and on drugs.

    Tony suggested, "Andrea, why don't we go to the hospital and get the results? That might be better."After thinking it over, Andrea agreed. They left the Presidential Hotel and drove to the hospital. When they arrived, Andrea's doctor, Doctor Kone, was already in his office waiting for them."Mrs. Singers, I thought you might not need the DNA test results, but just in case, I kept them safe. Here they are," Doctor Kone said, extending an envelope towards her.With trembling hands, Andrea took it. Nervous, she forgot to thank Doctor Kone and immediately pulled the DNA test slip from the envelope.As she read the paper, her pupils dilated in disbelief. She looked at Doctor Kone, stunned. "Doctor Kone, does this mean they have a father-son relationship?"While Andrea was knowledgeable about the data, nothing seemed to make sense to her.Doctor Kone, who had supervised the test, was aware of the final result. Without hesitation, he confirmed, "Yes, they are father and son."Tony, sitting

    Agatha fell silent, pondering over Andrea's words. After a moment of consideration, she asked tentatively, "Andrea, do you want to marry him?"Andrea remained silent for a full minute, seriously contemplating the question. Finally, she shook her head resolutely. "I don't want to."Agatha nodded seriously and began to advise, "If you don't—"Just then, Andrea's secretary opened the door, interrupting their conversation. Both women turned their heads toward her.Realizing her mistake, the secretary quickly spoke up. "Ma'am Andrea, your husband is here to see you, and he sounded very urgent."Andrea was surprised to hear that Valentine had come to the company, as Lucas had never visited while they were living together as husband and wife.Agatha urged Andrea, "Go ahead, I'll finalize what we discussed."Andrea nodded, stood up, and followed her secretary. She saw Valentine sitting in the waiting lounge, his palms covered in bandages. When he saw her, he sprang to his feet, smiling sweetl

Curious, she asked, "What did Sir Anderson say that made you so angry?"Tony roughly let go of his grip on Valentine, causing him to lose his footing and struggle to stand."Mrs. Win, I will be on my way," Tony replied unhappily, turning around and walking away without looking back.Valentine struggled to his feet. Despite his vision playing tricks on him, he managed to stand and slowly began climbing the staircase.

    Valentine Anderson drove directly to the hospital, having already called his personal doctor. Arriving, Doctor Steve was taken aback to see that the man who had just spoken to him on the phone looked different from the Valentine Anderson he remembered."It's me, Steve. I need your help," Valentine said as he noticed Doctor Steve staring at him in silence.Though Doctor Steve was quiet, his mind was racing. He knew Valentine had been a bomb victim, and recent news reports had mentioned him, though Steve had dismissed them as baseless rumors. Now, seeing Valentine looking exactly like the deceased Pascal Willow, he couldn't deny the reality anymore."Let's go to my office," Doctor Steve finally said, snapping out of his thoughts and quickly making a decision.They walked into the office together and sat down, facing each other.

    The more Valentine Anderson stared intently at his phone screen, the tighter his grip on the device became. The DNA test analysis at the end revealed he shared only 25% of his DNA with Pete, indicating that he was Pete's uncle rather than his father."Impossible!" he bellowed, startling Housekeeper Win, whose pen slipped and drew a line across the paper she was writing on.Smoke seemed to billow from Valentine's ears as the vein on his forehead bulged with anger. He shoved the phone into his pocket, yanked off his apron, and stormed out of the kitchen, his expression dark.Housekeeper Win was so frightened that she opened her mouth several times to ask what was wrong but couldn't utter a word.
