Arthur did not expect Gavin to ignore his advice in such a short period of time. He hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm not sure whether the bank is still operating at this hour." "What are you talking about? It's three in the afternoon and it's definitely still open for business. Hurry up and have this settled!" Gavin sternly instructed as he knew what Arthur was trying to do. "Raelyn, don't worry about Devon as I'll help you out soon. He should not be kept under the watch when he is genuinely innocent. What the h*ll are the authorities doing?" Raelyn was secretly pleased upon hearing Gavin's offer to provide financial assistance as well as pulling some strings for her. She pretended to refuse, "Dad, you don't have to do this! I'm well-off!" "Why are your clothes so worn out then? You would not have become so dull if you really had the money," Gavin was persistent in his decision. Arthur told him that Raelyn was in for the money but it turned out to be
Valeria chuckled and said, "Really? Did you come up with this idea just to seek grandpa's mercy? Alright then. Ms. Anderson, can you swear that you will never take a penny from grandpa starting from now on? I would then apologize for my rash behavior in accusing you of being the bad person." Raelyn remained silent. How could she swear to not obtaining financial assistance from Gavin forever? She was currently short in cash and had gotten used to the posh lifestyle. Besides, her daughters were also strapped for cash. How could she do it? Valeria sneered and continued, "Ms. Anderson, why is there no reply from you? Are you subtly admitting to us that you're here to ask for money from grandpa?" Raelyn failed to defend herself further as things had already gone out of hand. Gavin was furious upon realizing that Raelyn had deceived him once again. He pointed at the door and said, "Get out!" "Dad! But I..." Raelyn tried to explain herself. "Get out right
In the hospital ward, Gavin leaned against the bedframe and felt a little regretful. He finally calmed down and realized that he had acted rashly just now. Raelyn deserved to be scolded and chased out from the hospital ward. However, why was Valeria being dragged into this mess as well? Valeria just wanted to give him a word of precaution and was currently pregnant. She must be upset to be wrongly accused in this matter. Gavin felt uneasy but was too arrogant in apologizing to Valeria first. Gavin did not move an inch despite hearing his phone ringing. Arthur, who was standing beside him, picked the phone up and glanced at the screen. "Mr. Saunders! The call is from Mr. Howard." "I'm not in the mood to answer his phone!" Gavin swiftly refused. Hayden had stopped calling him a long time ago. It was not a good sign for Hayden to call him out of the blue. Gavin did not forget that he had ruined Valeria's mood just now. Hayden was undoubtedly
Raelyn was upset and felt humiliated after being exposed by Valeria. She had talked things through with Natasya about their plan to obtain money from Gavin. How did Valeria know when they were absolutely secretive about it? Raelyn recalled Valeria having the footage of her heading towards the beauty salon shop. She was confident that the professional makeup artist had given out all the details. Raelyn bribed the makeup artist to keep her mouth sealed but eventually betrayed her. She did not want to let things slide when the makeup artist had teamed up with Valeria. She had to talk things through with the makeup artist right now! Raelyn rushed towards the beauty salon and barged into it before questioning the makeup artist. However, the makeup professional said that it was a misunderstanding and denied everything that Raelyn had accused her of. Raelyn was not foolish enough to believe her and turned the entire shop into a mess. The makeup artist woul
Angel rushed towards William and was about to hug him. Bobby immediately stepped forward and stopped her. She had intended to give William a big hug before Bobby disrupted her plan. She questioned in a displeased tone, "Who are you? Why are you blocking my way?" Bobby replied with a blank expression on his face, "I am the bodyguard of Mr. Howard, who is also responsible for the safety of his family. Strangers are forbidden to have physical contact with him!" "I am not someone random! Do you know who am I?" Angel was furious as this was the first time that she had experienced such humiliation. "I am the eldest daughter of the Floyd family. I also happen to be William's cousin!" "Miss Floyd, how do you do? Welcome to B CIty!" Bobby greeted politely but still stood between William and Angel. His body posture was clearly firm that Angel ought to not touch William. Angel was feeling displeased but William chose to ignore her feelings. He greeted with a smile, "
Valeria was being sent to the hospital immediately. The group of specialists was already waiting for her arrival upon receiving a call about her injury. She was swiftly sent to the examination room for a check-up. William had eventually arrived at the hospital alongside Bobby with anxious looks on their faces. Wiliam asked, "Dad, what has exactly happened? Are there any updates from the doctor?" "She's still in the midst of a checking." Hayden rubbed his hands together and continued in a worrisome tone, "She wanted to call it a day but was feeling rather thirsty. She then headed downstairs to have a glass of water but accidentally lost balance on her way down. She had quick reflexes and immediately reached out to grab ahold of the railing. Otherwise, it would be a nightmare for us!" Hayden was relieved upon briefing about Valeria's update. He could not bear to think of the impact if Valeria had really falled off the stairs. The door of the examination room was b
Raelyn headed out and sneakily inquired about the news of Valeria and imagined her to suffer from a serious injury. However, things went out of her expectation upon hearing from the medical personnel. Valeria's feet were only slightly sprained which was not a life-threatening matter. Raelyn returned to the ward in a sulky mood and said, "Valeria is such a lucky person! She is doing fine." Natasya was feeling disappointed upon hearing about it. Raelyn then asked, "Why is Angel so interested in Valeria's updates?" Natasya sneered and replied, "I guess William had excused himself from the Floyd family upon receiving news that Valeria has fallen down from the stairs. Angel chose to seek my assistance as she was unhappy about it." "Really? Okay then, this would be a piece of cake to deal with. Exaggerate things to Angel so that she would be extra pissed at Valeria!" Raelyn swiftly suggested. "That's what I had in mind too." Natasya immediately sent a message to
William then left the old estate alongside Bobby. He decided to have a glance through his text messages on his way to the hotel. It was from Silas, "Mr. Howard, I have gotten ahold of Emily's DNA sample." William replied, "Alright then. Do give it to Marcus for further processing." He then instructed Bobby, "Find a chance to obtain Angel's DNA specimen today." "Noted!" Bobby agreed immediately and did not question further as usual. William gave a few additional tasks for him, "Do pass it to Marcus' men for the identification process as soon as you got ahold of Angel's DNA sample. I need to know about the result as soon as possible!" Both Fandrey and Deborah were overjoyed when William had promised to have breakfast with them at the hotel. William then offered to bring the Floyd family on a sightseeing tour after enjoying a hearty breakfast together. Fandrey and Deborah agreed and were looking forward to the tour. William then proceeded to arran
