As Jaime and Sheldon were talking, Sheldon’s phone suddenly rang.He glanced at the screen, and the caller ID indicated that it was his brother, Steven.Thinking of his sinister act of adding insult to injury at the most critical moment, Sheldon’s face twisted into a disdainful grimace, and he became extremely upset.He clicked on the loudspeaker and asked coldly, “What?”Steven chuckled and said, “Hey, Sheldon, the car as well as the plane are ready. It’s time to send you to the airport.”Grinding his teeth in dismay, Sheldon replied in a cold voice, “Okay. I’ll have a few more words with Jaime and come down soon.”Steven quickly said, “Sheldon, you’d better not delay this any longer. Father is waiting for my update. He wants you to leave as soon as possible.”Sheldon held back his anger and said, “Okay, I’ll be there in five minutes!”“Alright!” Steven laughed. “I’ll be waiting for you at the door, and I’ll personally send you to the airport later!”Sheldon ended the call wi

The driver immediately started the car and left.Jaime watched the car leave the residence courtyard, feeling utterly at a loss.Tonight was more tormenting than the night he and Sophie had been kidnapped.At that time, they had faced only a life-threatening situation.But tonight, he had experienced a series of astonishing changes such as his father’s illegitimate daughter, his parents’ broken marriage, as well as his father losing his power and being exiled to Australia.He was not only worried about his parents’ relationships and his father’s future, but also his own future.Before tonight, his father was the heir of the entire Schulz family, which made him the heir apparent after his father.However, tonight’s change had transformed everything.His father had lost the favor and trust of his grandfather. If Sheldon lost his power and collapsed, his future was also bound to be gloomy.If Steven became the heir of the family, he would stand no chance at all!The worried Jaim

Half an hour later, a Boeing 747 that had been revamped into a private jet took off from Eastcliff Airport.This aircraft was of the same model as the US Presidential Air Force One, with a typical three-level cockpit layout. The aircraft could fit up to four hundred and sixty-seven passengers when it was fully loaded with passengers.However, aside from the crew, there was only one passenger in the entire plane at this moment. That passenger was none other than Sheldon.The flight distance from Eastcliff to Queensland, Australia, was about nine thousand kilometers.It would be impossible for any ordinary small and medium private jets to fly directly on such a long route.Only a large passenger aircraft such as the Boeing 747 with a range of more than ten thousand kilometers would be able to complete this kind of direct flight.At this time, Sheldon, who was on the plane, was feeling very depressed.He was looking outside the window, and as Eastcliff’s brightly lit night view got

...At the same time, in Cadfan’s study room.Steven was holding a tablet in his hand as he presented the media reports and netizens’ comments about Cadfan one by one. He smiled as he said, “Dad, this way, everyone will no longer push the blame to you or hold you responsible for Rosalie’s affairs anymore.”Lord Schulz nodded in satisfaction. At the same time, he felt completely relieved.The older a person got, the more they would care about their own reputation and image. This was especially so for people like Lord Schulz.He had already been a wise and brilliant mind for a lifetime, and he was even the life goal and role model in the minds of countless people.As he was already at his retirement age, if he were to fall and fail miserably because of Rosalie’s incident this time, his reputation as a brilliant and wise man in this lifetime would no longer be guaranteed.Therefore, deep down in his heart, he had been feeling extremely eager to push the blame and responsibility ont

The news about Sheldon suddenly dominated all of the major and small media headlines.Sophie and Jaime were both very angry about this matter. Jaime even thought about going directly to his grandfather several times to question him about the cause behind this matter. However, Sophie stopped him directly.This was because Sophie knew very well that their grandfather was deliberately sacrificing their father to protect himself. If they were to look for him and confront him directly now, he would only be even angrier and more frustrated with them.Instead of that, it would be better for them not to say anything at all and simply head to Aurous Hill with their mother early in the morning tomorrow, as planned.As for how she should help her father to turn things around, Sophie already had her own plans in mind.However, she would have to wait patiently for the perfect opportunity first.At the same time, the Harker family had already evacuated all of their masters from the Schulz fami

The person who had spoken was an old butler working for the Dunn family in Aurous Hill.Helen had met him before when she was still young. Over the past two decades, the old butler had been taking care of the Dunn family’s old mansion in Aurous Hill. After that, Helen had married into the Schulz family. So, the both of them had never met again.Nevertheless, Helen recognized him at a glance, and she greeted him respectfully, “Uncle Walters! I hope that you have been well since we last met!”After she was done speaking, she hurriedly instructed her pair of children who were next to her, “Jaime, Sophie, hurry up and greet Grandpa Walters.”Jaime and Sophie hurriedly greeted him respectfully, “Hello, Grandpa Walters!”The old butler hurriedly bowed to thank her, and he felt very flattered as he said, “Miss Helen, I really did not expect you to remember me.”Helen smiled as she said, “Why wouldn’t I remember you? You used to be in charge of the mansion that was next to the prince’s m

At this time, Charlie was pushing his electric bike out of the main gate of the villa at Thompson First.Claire’s company’s Spring Festival Holiday had already ended, and she had already officially returned to work. Charlie’s father-in-law, Jacob, had also begun to reinvest and put all of his focus and attention into the affairs at the Calligraphy and Painting Association.Elaine, who was still on crutches, had made breakfast in the morning. After Jacob and Claire were done with breakfast, they drove their own BMWs to get on with their businesses. Charlie cleaned the house a little before he prepared to head out to buy some meat and eggs.Although the small vegetable garden at home could provide them with all the vegetables and fruits that most families needed, they would still have to buy their meat and eggs from the supermarket.Charlie rode his electric bike out, but he was not in a hurry to set off. Instead, he parked his electric bike at the side of the road along the Thompson

This was Charlie’s purpose in keeping Rosalie alive.He planned to send Rosalie back to Eastcliff when the time was right.Immediately afterward, he put his cell phone away. After that, he stepped on the accelerator of the electric bike, and the small machine made a buzzing sound as the electric bike started moving out.After leaving the Thompson First community, Charlie was turning his electric bike around as he prepared to go to Isaac’s hotel. At this time, he heard a familiar voice shouting behind him with a hint of nervousness, “Brother-in-Law!”Charlie subconsciously turned his head around, and he saw a familiar woman beckoning him from the sidewalk behind him.“Wendy?” Charlie was really surprised upon observing the woman carefully.It was not the first or second day since his family and Lady Wilson’s family had turned hostile against one another. For such a long time, the two families had been mutually destructive, just like water and fire.They would not greet each other

However, to Jacob's shock, Elaine wasn't misled at all as she growled icily, "Why would I ask anyone else?! If there's someone I must question, it's Matilda! She's getting married, isn't she? Good! I will be there and ask her why she hooked up with my husband!"Jacob turned pale right then.Matilda's son and even some of their old classmates would be attending her wedding.If Elaine went, he would be exposed, and he wouldn't be able to stay in Aurous Hill out of shame!His nerves gnawing at him, Jacob could only plead, "Please, just trust me this once! Anything else aside, she's getting married, anyway—there's no way that I'd have anything to do with her! That alone should prove my innocence!"Elaine snorted. "If Matilda returned when I was arrested, it means she has been back for a while! And you're saying nothing happened since? Hell, even if she's married, it doesn't prove that she wasn't up to some hanky-panky with you! Maybe while I was arrested and refused a divorce when you

The driver was left dumbstruck—this wasn't how it was supposed to go.Still, he blurted, "C-Crashing into a Cullinan? I might end up dead instead…""Fine! Then let's change cars, and you crash into ours—how about that?!" Elaine promptly retorted before continuing, "Or we could just stand right in front of your car while you run into us! I just happen to have a death wish, but if you don't kill me now, I'll kill you! Don't think about getting away either—I know your car plate! I'll sell this car and use the money to put a bounty on your head! I don't care what happens to me now! I'll claw my nails into the devil's face even if he shows up!"The driver was actually quite experienced, but even he had yet to meet someone as ridiculous as Elaine.Barely able to keep his hands steady, he threw them up as he apologized, "I'm so sorry, ma'am—I just lost my cool. I'm merely a humble driver of a Honda Civic while you own a Rolls. Hell, I spent fifty bucks buying that red emblem from Amazon,

Elaine may have led a life as if she was above the rules, but beneath that tough exterior lay crippling insecurities and a horrific inferiority complex.She was always afraid of being belittled—but more than that, of being ostracized and betrayed.Over the years, the greatest source of her complexes could all be traced back to Matilda.After all, Matilda had been a star back in their school days. Because Elaine was a close friend of hers, many boys would get chummy with Elaine, but only because they were interested in Matilda.Being from a poor farmer's family, Elaine had been scorned plenty and therefore felt exceedingly inferior around Matilda.It was from that sense of inferiority that Elaine had inadvertently developed a one-sided rivalry against Matilda, and she believed her greatest triumph over Matilda in this life was the moment she had stolen Jacob from her.However, while Elaine presumed that she could hold that victory over Matilda's head, Lady Wilson had soured that v

Moreover, given Elaine's ridiculous temper, Jacob knew she would definitely go overboard and destroy him.He wouldn't even have a place to live at that point, and it would really be game over if she held a grudge and stormed the Calligraphy and Painting Association!Under such circumstances, he couldn't ask for a divorce—hell, he might even refuse a divorce if Elaine asked for one!However, that was when Elaine laughed coldly. "Oh, my… You're really not going to divorce me?""Come on—how long were we married?" Jacob quickly reasoned. "Getting divorced at our age? People would laugh at us."Elaine scoffed. "Now I'm curious… Matilda's quite old too, and she's a divorcee marrying again. Won't people laugh at her?""Technically, she's a widow—"Jacob blurted out, but soon turned pale, tensing up again not a second after he had just calmed down, asking gingerly, "W-Why would you suddenly mention her?'Elaine stopped pretending right then and snapped, "It's actually impressive that y

Horrified, Jacob promptly grasped the steering wheel and brought the Cullinan back under control while not hesitating to snap, "Are you crazy?! We're on the highway—that could have killed the both of us!"However, Elaine ignored him and seized the moment to open the armrest box, pulling out the large white envelope.As she opened it, she muttered, "So, it really was a wedding invitation… You really are a terrible friend, Jacob Wilson, hiding a wedding invitation like this! What's the point? Just look at that nervous face of yours—would I suspect you of having an affair with the bride-to-be?"She flipped open the card and was experienced enough to check the names first while disregarding the usual preamble. She wouldn't care about the venue or the time either, focusing solely on the professor who had somehow made Jacob very nervous.That was how Elaine found the names in less than a second: Yolden Hart and Matilda Hall.Matilda?!The name could well be knives stabbing Elaine in th

Jacob's brain blanked out, leaving only a dull hum as soon as Walker mentioned 'Professor Hall'.Already feeling nervous in the first place, he quickly said, "Okay, okay—I got it. Anyway, I'm hanging up if there's nothing else!"With that, he promptly pressed the button to hang up.Nonetheless, Elaine was soon asking in curiosity, "Who's Professor Hall?"If Jacob had any semblance of composure, he would have said 'a colleague at Senior University' as if it was perfectly natural, and the matter would have been forgotten.But the reality was that he didn't—in fact, he was the champion when it came to dropping the ball as a casual question from Elaine left him sweating all over his brow.Even as he slid nervous glances at her face, he stammered uncontrollably, "N-Nobody…"Elaine promptly noticed his strange reaction and frowned. "I'm talking about Professor Hall. What do you mean, nobody? Who are they? And what's this about an invitation? Inviting you for what?"Seeing that he was

Jacob had really had too much to drink and couldn't remember the later parts of what had happened last night—even how he had gotten home was a blur.Naturally, he also forgot that Walker had brought Matilda's wedding invitation, and therefore didn't hesitate to answer the in-car answer button.Over the phone, Walker was positively fawning as he asked, "Mr. Wilson? It's Walker. Why didn't you come in today? Had too much to drink last night?""Uh-huh," Jacob grunted, lethargic. "I did—my head still hurts now… Anyway, what's up? Trouble at the association?""No, of course not," Walker quickly said. "I was just worried you're still hungover, so I called to ask. If you need a driver or anything, you just need to ask!"Then, before Jacob could answer, he continued, "By the way, my wife is somewhat knowledgable in Oskian medicine, and she has recipes for brews that cure hangovers and nourish the liver. I'm sure you'll need the latter since you're always drinking at social events, so I as

Fortunately, Elaine and Jacob's bickering never escalated.Even though Elaine was winning, Jacob found it tolerable.After Jacob finished his lunch and cleaned up, he never looked up as he said, "Charlie sent a text, saying Claire's flight would touch down earlier at three. We will leave at two."Elaine grumbled. "Why leave so early? She's coming back from abroad, and there'd be checkpoints she has to clear—she'd be lucky if she could leave by half past three. I'm sleeping a few winks now, and we'll leave at half past two."As she left the dining room, she didn't even look back as she said, "Clean up for me too."Jacob had a million complaints but said nothing as he kept his head down, throwing Elaine's lunchbox in the trash can as well.With Elaine gone, he sat on the couch as her hangover slowly cleared while his mood soured with the lack of alcohol.In the end, the pleasure of being fawned over at the Diamond Room was but temporary—the pain of his beloved leaving with someone

Vera kept her plan to investigate the identity of the abbess deep in her mind and told Charlie nothing.Instead, she smiled as she said, "It seems that it's both yours and Ms. Ito's good fortune that she has attained enlightenment. You've never had anyone who could attain enlightenment and master Reiki at the same time, so Ms. Ito will definitely be a great help to you in the future."Charlie chuckled and said calmly, "I'm not hoping for her to help. I'm simply happy for her with her enlightenment and excited to have another comrade in my solo ventures into the dark forests."Vera nodded in understanding, and she murmured emotionally, "I've lived for so long, and it's only when I opened my heart to you that I felt that sensation you described."There was a flicker of wistfulness in her eyes.She really did not expect to attain enlightenment before meeting Charlie.Years ago, she thought that she would eventually avenge her father.Now, she no longer hoped to murder Fleur Griffi
