It couldn’t be easier for such a figure of high stature to ruin him!With that in mind, Benjamin didn’t dare to delay. He quickly turned around and briefly explained the situation to his subordinates behind him.Meanwhile, after Harriet and Delbert left the gems trading center, the shocked onlookers had long since departed, preparing the money needed to purchase gem stones for the next time Harriet visited the gems trading center.Lewis promptly found his immediate superior, informed him of the situation, and obtained Alan's phone number.As soon as Alan answered his call, Lewis couldn't wait to say, "Mr. Alan, Harriet just visited our gems trading center!"Without hesitation, Lewis directly recounted every detail of Harriet's experience at the gems trading center to Alan.At thismoment, Alan on the other end of the phone was still at Levi's villa, arguing with his other brothers about which brother Harriet preferred.Just as they were getting into it, he suddenly received a c
Harriet and Delbert finally returned to their villa.At nightfall, in the villa.After dinner, Harriet sat at her desk holding the pile of precious gem stones she had just bought.Looking at these dozen or so valuable gem stones in front of her, Harriet held a carving knife but hesitated on how to start.She had already decided on the way to give each of her eight brothers a carved jewel pendant.She had even recalled all the carving knowledge she recently learned from Alan's grandfather on her way here.But when it came time to start, she felt lost.After several unsuccessful attempts, Harriet scratched her head in frustration, looking utterly defeated.If she couldn't even carve jewel pendants for her eight brothers properly, how could she later carve that piece of blood jewel well and present it to Delbert?Just then, Harriet heard the study door suddenly being pushed open.Before she could turn around, a man approached her from behind and leaned down slightly beside her.
Among the eight brothers, except for Alan, the other Bass brothers, including the usually cold and indifferent Levi, all looked curious and puzzled, wondering why Harriet had suddenly called them together."Yvonne, did you call us together for something? Did someone bully you again? We’ll help you seek revenge!"Henry, the doting brother, was the first to speak.Alan's gaze towards Harriet was unexpectedly deep, his expression inscrutable but showing a hint of curiosity similar to the rest of his brothers'."Yes, Yvonne, please tell us."Harriet sat with Delbert in the center of the eight brothers, smiled mysteriously, then took a bag containing jewel pendants from Delbert's hands.Skipping the pleasantries, she took out nine pieces of jewel pendants carved from precious gem stones from the bag. The carvings were no less exquisite than those of top-notch master carvers.Seeing the surprised expressions on all eight brothers' faces, Harriet proudly handed each of them one of th
Harriet was about to ask, but Arthur changed the subject abruptly with happiness, "However, with us brothers here, you’ll never be bullied in Imperium again!"With that, Arthur turned on the television.A news report happened to be airing.The content included: the company managed by Wendell collapsed overnight, and Wendell was imprisoned!Garry's plot against Harriet was exposed, and he was also imprisoned!Furthermore, the shareholders of the Lynch Group underwent a major reshuffle overnight, with all shareholders within it now under Arthur and Levi's control.As for Liam and Lily, without the Lynch Group, their future seemed even bleaker than that of Garry and Wendell in prison!Was it an overnight upheaval in the business world?Harriet's beautiful eyes were full of shock.She had thought her brothers were unaware of the conflicts between her and these four people, and even if they knew, they wouldn't bother to intervene.But to her surprise, her brothers had already seiz
During leisure time, apart from being close to Delbert, Harriet learned about the knowledge in various fields of her eight brothers and tried to inherit their legacy.One day, everyone gathered at Delbert's rented private villa in Imperium. Delbert himself was cooking. They were having a great time when suddenly a cell phone rang and broke the peaceful atmosphere.As everyone looked towards the sound, Levi picked up the phone placed on the table and answered it."Hello, Mr. Levi, this’s Imperium City Hospital."Upon hearing that, everyone fell silent."What's the matter?" Levi asked coldly.On the other end, it was said, "Mr. Levi, Ms. Miriam has fully regained consciousness and wants to see you. Please come over quickly."Upon hearing that, Levi quickly responded and then looked around at everyone with a joyful expression."It's a call from the hospital, saying that our godmother has woken up.""Really? Godmother has really woken up?" The Bass brothers were overjoyed.
Although Harriet and the Bass brothers already knew that Sadie was the one who harmed Miriam, hearing it directly from Miriam still made them extremely angry.After a pause, Miriam continued, "After I faked my death and escaped from your father, Clifton, I returned to Imperium. I had planned to ask your grandfather to save you, but I saw your good friend holding your token and becoming the daughter of the Bass family."When she saw me return, feeling guilty, she took advantage of the lack of people around and pushed me down the stairs. It resulted in me lying here unconscious..."As Miriam told the story, tears streamed down her face. When she mentioned the name of her enemy, her tone noticeably intensified.Then, her eyes momentarily lost focus, as if a scene flashed through her mind. She recalled the reason she had left in the first place—her husband's infidelity. She gave birth to Harriet in Agral City, hoping for a peaceful life.Unexpectedly, Clifton's company faced a s
At this moment, the expressions on the faces of the Bass brothers varied, but most of them were filled with determination against those few individuals."Don't worry, Ms. Miriam. Leave this matter to us. You can stay here for a full recovery. Once you're better, we'll move away from this place of trouble.""Everything that belongs to Yvonne will be reclaimed by us!"Upon hearing that, Miriam had a faint smile on her pale face. She was relieved and delighted. She didn’t expect her adopted sons to be so outstanding. Seeing them united filled her with joy.She was about to say something more when her mouth opened but her eyes suddenly noticed a man standing silently in the corner.She squinted her eyes to make out his features and exclaimed in surprise, "You... Aren't you the little boy who lived next door to us when you were young?"The woman's son hadn't changed at all. Even as an adult, he still wore that indifferent expression.Fearful of being mistaken, Miriam looked at him
Seeing Harriet's disappointment, the Bass brothers and Delbert felt a pang in their hearts. Their mouths remained slightly open for a while before closing again.It would be best not to let Harriet know about what happened in the past.After all, it was something no one could bear.Miriam reached out and ruffled Harriet's hair, "Silly girl, there's really nothing wrong. You were young at that time. Forgetting things is quite normal."Upon hearing that, Harriet let go of many doubts in her heart and smiled lightly."Alright, mom, I understand."Then everyone gathered around the hospital bed, exchanging heartwarming words that made Miriam laugh joyfully."Alright, alright, all of you are so sweet and good kids!"Miriam smiled at everyone and then patted Harriet's hand. After a sigh, she said, "I'm fine now. It's getting late. You should all go back. I need some rest too. I just woke up, and my body still feels uncomfortable. Maybe a good night's sleep will help."Upon hearin
