Along the way, Cathy quietly looked out the window, her eyes lifeless. The sky was still gloomy, just like her state of mind at this moment.The speed of the car was very fast, so soon Cathy arrived in front of the villa, she saw the familiar black Mercedes Benz parked in front of the door, she smiled bitterly and realized that this was Kevin's car.When she was about to get out of the car, Cathy hesitated, she was a bit scared."My Lady, you're finally back." Milah noticed the vehicle parked at the door and realized it was Cathy returning, so she rushed out the door to greet her."What is it now?" Cathy got out of the car anyway, there was no use backing down at a time like this."The old lady and the lady are visiting in the back garden now and Mr. Kevin is still in the study." Milah followed behind Cathy and answered quickly."Mother and ......the lady are visiting which side of the garden ?" Cathy paused in her walking, and although she had guessed the answer, she asked anyway."T
A violent storm raged, and the trees along the roadside trembled in shock. In the distance, a purple bolt of lightning ripped through the void. The sound of sobbing wind, roaring thunder, and crashing rain mingled into one. The villa area was far away from the city, and there was only one figure on the wide road looming in the rain. The closer she walked, the more her figure gradually emerged, growing thinner and thinner as the storm washed over her. She walked slowly with her head down, letting the storm wash over her, and she did nothing about it. Cathy didn't know how long she'd been walking, she didn't know where she was going, she was just walking forward, she was drained. Kevin was once her lifeline, tugging at him, she had the motivation and direction to survive, so she put a layer of filters on all the people and things related to Kevin in her heart, and she looked at the world through the filters. But what's fake was still fake, and the filter couldn't cover up the false an
"I'm the lost daughter of the Melville family?" Cathy sat dumbfounded in her hospital bed as the man in the dark suit opened his mouth to explain everything when the beauty hugged her crying. It turned out that that beauty was Olivia Melville, that Mrs. Lanyon, whom she had once heard old Mrs. Lewis so proudly introduce. The steady man in the dark suit was the current CEO of the Melville family, called Carter Melville, the second son of the Melville family. The man in the white lab coat was the third son of the Melville family, a doctor named Kyle Melville. Cathy was in a private hospital on the Melville family estate now, and Kyle was her attending physician. The last man in the black shirt was the youngest son, Eric Melville, who was only a year older than Cathy and he was a researcher, his clothes disheveled because he had just rushed in from the lab. The only elder of the Melville family left today was their grandfather, all the other elders have passed away and the grandfather
"Cathy, do you like this?" Olivia asked Cathy, holding up a brochure and pointing to a diamond necklace on one of the pages. Since being discharged from the hospital, Cathy had been picked up by her brothers and taken back to their villa on the west side of the city. The area of the villa was many times bigger than the Lewis family's villa, Carter said that most of the the old money‘s villas were on the west side of the city, the villa area where the Lewis family lived was newly built, and some new money would choose to live in that area, the distance between them was not far, so the people they met would be much more complicated compared to the west side of the city. The villa areas on the west side of the city were farther away from each other because they all paid attention to privacy, so Cathy didn't have to worry about meeting neighbors who would gossip, she could freely roam around the garden and didn't have to be afraid of disturbing anyone. The interior of the villa was
"Cathy, do you like this turquoise bracelet?" Olivia sidled up and whispered to Cathy, who was sitting next to her, her eyes on the bracelet being presented on the stage. "I think we've bought enough for tonight." Cathy thought about how Olivia and Eric had bought most of the auction items since arriving at the auction with almost uninterrupted shouting. "It's okay, as long as you like it." Olivia looked at Cathy firmly, telling her to relax. "I don't need any more." Cathy refused with difficulty, they had bought them all and given them to her, she had never received so many expensive gifts in her life, and hearing the prices under the auction made her a little vertigo. "Okay." Olivia could only give up the bracelet regrettably. "4.8 million for the third time! Sold! Congratulations to Miss Perez for taking this turquoise bracelet of excellent color." Finally, the turquoise bracelet was sold for 4.8 million dollars. Cathy quietly sucked in a breath of cool air, she felt that it m
Cathy stood cozily on the small deck, exhaling deeply as she looked out over the lights of the surrounding buildings. Olivia finished the talk with Mrs.Hill and then brought her and Eric to meet several ladies, who introduced by Olivia were very close to the Lanyon clan and Melville clan. Of course, they also met some ladies with average relationships, Mrs.Sharp also came to exchange pleasantries with Olivia but Eric quietly told her that they seldom dealt with the Sharp clan because there was some friction between the grandparents but lately, there was the strife in Sharp clan, so Mrs. Sharp's husband wanted to seek some outside help, and Olivia, as the wife of the head of the Lanyon clan and the sister of the head of the Melville clan, was naturally an object that needed to be drawn in. Cathy listened with great interest, and with Eric's introduction, the whole party was not boring. However, even though Cathy found it very interesting, it was after all her first time participating
Cathy straightened her dress in the doorway before lifting her foot and walking in, she was a bit preoccupied with the man she had just seen, actually scaring the strutting Lacey Preze like that, last name Langley was it? She found Eric on the couch to the right of the ballroom, Eric was leaning back on the couch bored with a cupcake, Olivia was not there, not sure if she was off chatting with another lady. "Cathy, you're finally back, I was dying of boredom without you and Olivia." Eric saw Cathy in his afterglow and hurriedly sat up straight happily. "Something just happened and there was a delay, sorry for the wait." Cathy apologized and sat down next to Eric, reaching for the cake Eric handed her. "What happened? Did someone give you a hard time?" Eric listened with some urgency. "No, I just met a man, his last name is Langley, and he is very handsome, he said he is Carter's friend, Eric, do you know him?" Cathy didn't want Eric to worry so she didn't say what happened. "Tha
Melville clan villa. Cathy and her group returned to the villa and talked merrily as they lounged on the couch. "Carter, you're back." A sharp-eyed Eric saw Carter, who had just walked into the villa. "I heard you guys went to Mrs. Sharp's auction today, how'd it go, did you get any good deals?" Carter asked with a smile as he walked over and unclipped his cuffs. "We did a lot of shopping, especially, Cathy managed to shoot a necklace for the first time tonight." Olivia happily shared with her brother. "Really? That's wonderful!" Carter quipped with a smile as he leaned over the edge of the couch where Cathy was sitting. Cathy looked down and covered her face, she was feeling a little embarrassed, the way Olivia and Carter were treating her made her feel like a child. "By the way, Cathy, to tell you the good news, Kevin Lewis will not appear in front of you in the future. I've moved his business with the Melville Group, so no surprise, he shouldn't meet up with you again." Carte
"I haven't seen you for a long time, Uncle Rynaud." Old Mr. Melville sat on the sofa with a cane, looking at the man in front of him with a gloomy face. Cathy sat sideways next to her grandfather and looked carefully at the man's face. The man named Frank Melville wears a dark blue suit with a beige vest, with a straight waist and back, and looks elegant and stylish from behind. His brown hair is mixed with white hair that can't be ignored, which is slightly messy. His appearance is somewhat similar to Carter's, but his eyes seemed turbid, and the occasional dodged eyes and drooping corners of his eyes revealed his malice. At this time, he was raising the corners of his mouth and naturally greeted Old Mr. Melvillea. He turned his head slightly to look at Cathy and looked surprised with his eyes wide open. "You are my poor niece.I konw you really suffer. Now you are found back, your parents must be at ease..." His words were sincere, and Cathy also found that his eye
"Good morning, Miss Cathy, how have you been? I've heard from Carter that you've recently taken a liking to Yvonne Benedict's fiddle tunes. It just so happens that she's been giving a solo recital lately and sent me two tickets to the premiere, which is tonight. I wonder if you'd be interested in going along to listen?"At eight in the morning, Cathy had just finished washing up and returning to her room from the bathroom when she happened to see a text message pop up on her mobile phone, which she picked up to find it was from Felix.Felix had messaged her almost every day since they had reunited on the day of the banquet, they hadn't talked about anything very important, just small talk about interesting things in life and work. Because Carter said to her after the party that she could be at ease with Felix and could see Felix as another brother, Cathy was also very relaxed with Felix, and she treated Felix as the same being as Carter, Kyle, and Eric. So when she saw the invitation
Felix coughed a little and raised the glass in his hand again to take a sip, Carter looked at him with more and more suspicious eyes, just as Felix wanted to change the subject, he just saw Cathy's figure, she looked around as if looking for something, Cathy turned her head just to meet Felix's eyes, Felix hooked up the corners of his mouth and raised his glass to her, Cathy had a surprised smile on her face and walked towards him. Cathy had a surprised smile on her face and walked quickly towards him. Carter saw Felix's movement and turned round to spot Cathy."Carter, Mr.Langley, finally found you. Let's go find Grandfather." Cathy smiled as she walked up to the two."Is grandfather looking for me? I'll be right over." Carter assumed that Grandfather was looking for him and with a nod he headed straight for the lounge."Did you speak to Old Mr.Melville?" Felix asked as he bent slightly closer to Cathy."No, I thought you said you wanted to say it in person. So I just told Grandfathe
"Cathy, I was just going to look for you. Mr.Langley? Why are you guys ......" Cathy and Felix both walked into the ballroom side by side, Olivia smiled at Cathy as soon as she saw her and walked towards her, but noticed Felix next to her sister and asked in surprise. "Good evening, it's a pleasure to meet you Mrs.Lanyon, and I'd like to congratulate you on getting your sister back." Felix raised a gentle smile and gave her a small nod. "Olivia, I used to spend some time with Mr.Langley at the orphanage, I'll tell you the details when I get home." Cathy took Olivia's arm and explained to her. "Is that so? I didn't know you guys had met so early on." Olivia looked surprised. "Yes, about this, I think I am somewhat responsible and I need to say sorry to everyone in the Melville clan." Felix sounded very sincere. "Mr Langley, we've already discussed this topic, and that's not on you." Cathy looked at Felix somewhat helplessly and disapprovingly. "Consider it for my poor self-este
"Mr. Lewis, I would suggest that it would be better for you to speak after you have understood what is going on, otherwise you will look foolish." Eric's voice was lazy, but his words were unforgiving."What?" It took Kevin a moment to realize that Olivia and Eric were behind Cathy, it also took him a moment to realize that the guests around them were looking at them with strange eyes and whispering. Kevin felt that something wasn't quite right, but really had no idea what was going on, when the old Mrs. Lewis tugged at his sleeve."Cathy is the daughter that the Melville clan lost and she just asked me to apologize.""What?" Kevin was shocked at this, he hadn't expected such a coincidence at all, he subconsciously wondered if something could be wrong, "That's impossible, isn't Cathy just an orphan? Could there be a mistake?" As soon as these words came out, Kevin knew it was over, the opportunity he had begged so hard f
"Cathy, it's about time now, let's go over there with Grandpa." Olivia looked at the clock on the wall and turned her head to say to Cathy who was sitting next to her taking small sips of red wine. At this moment, Cathy and Olivia were resting in the hotel's fixed suite, originally Olivia was going to go and greet the ladies attending the banquet, but because Cathy was too nervous, Olivia was afraid that she would get carried away alone, so she stayed behind and let Carter, Kyle and Eric deal with it. Old Mr.Melville, on the other hand, was resting in his suite first because of his health and would go over there when the banquet officially started. "Okay, I'm ready." Cathy took Olivia's advice and drank a little bit of red wine so that her spirit didn't have to be so tight. It didn't take long for the three to appear in the ballroom. The entire banquet hall was much larger and more lavishly decorated than the one where the banquet was held after attending the auction that day, and
"Cathy, are you done?" Olivia walked into the room and looked over at Cathy who was buckling her belt. "Yes." Cathy buckled her belt and looked up as she walked over to Olivia, smiling. "Very well then, let's go into the drawing room now, Grandfather should be back soon." Olivia took Cathy's hand. The two of them talked and laughed as they walked to the living room and found that everyone was there. Especially Kyle, who was a doctor, and was by now nestled wearily on the couch. "Kyle, I didn't think you were going to make it back in time, are you done with your work?" Olivia asked with concern as she walked over to sit next to Kyle."Yes, it's over. I'm sorry I haven't been able to spend any quality time with you the last few days." Kyle rubbed the bridge of his nose tiredly and turned his head to Cathy with an apologetic expression. There was still a bit of stubble on his thin handsome face that hadn't been shaved, and he wore dark circles, so it was obvious at a glance that he h

A sharp-eyed Eric saw Carter, who had just walked into the villa. "I heard you guys went to Mrs. Sharp's auction today, how'd it go, did you get any good deals?"
