The sudden news that hit the media rocked the country so much and spread like wildfire.

Although netizens knew that most companies wouldn’t grow just simply and naturally, they were still shocked by the dirty acts Ezra Meyer, Aubree, and Dylan's family's company had gotten involved in over the years. Some of the illegal acts they had indulged in included embezzlement, murder, corruption, bullying, smuggling of illegal goods, engaging in illegal activities, etc.

After the release of this information, it was guaranteed that the three families, including their children, would be spending life imprisonment.

    “Daddy, you're here!” A loud and boisterous cry resounded in the mansion the instant Zaire and Lotus stepped into the Meyer mansion. As soon as the words were completed, two active and short legs scurried toward Zaire while the owner of the voice spread her arms in the air. Immediately, the owner of the voice jumped at Zaire. Zaire’s expression softened, and he bent down to pick Maeva up. Immediately, Maeve smacked several kisses on his face. “Daddy. Daddy, you are here. Daddy, when are you coming home with us?” She inquired, her hands hooked around Zaire’s neck.

Lotus suddenly sniffed pitifully and stretched out her hands to pull Maeva's cheeks. She chided playfully, “You little devilish cupcake, seen dad now you have forgotten mom. Mom is so pitiful…” Upon hearing this, Maeva batted her fan-like eyelashes and blinked her eyes

This playboy thing seems to run in their blood. Quist thrust his chin and flashed a smug expression at Zaire before carefully placing down his son, who bolted toward Zelda again. “Hey yo. What do you mean? My family's son is very incredible, and every girl wants to be linked with my family’s son, but he’s choosing your daughter. Say, Mr. Zaire, perhaps we'll end up as a family in the future. What do you think of an engagement…”Zaire’s expression turned cold, veins pulsating his neck, and he glared at Quist. “Scram.

    Lotus’s legs subconsciously walked toward Zaire. Before she could realize herself, Lotus already hugged Zaire from behind. She pursed her lip, her lips curling up slightly and her eyes sparkling.

He confessed, "I missed you.” He missed her so much it hurt. The house feels so empty. Fury, sadness, helplessness, regret, etc.—all sorts of mixed emotions invaded his heart.
