"Can you just go?" roared Corinne with annoyance.Jason stared her down fearlessly with a smile. "I can do that, but you're coming with me too! Or have you forgotten that we've made plans to go to Serenity Bay to talk about work after your meeting? Let's go!"Corinne did not want to go with him. She waved her hands and said, "No, we don't need to go there. Build your art gallery for all I care. Just make sure it doesn't take up more than one-fifth of the land!"She was not stupid enough to be in a confined space with a man who could violate her at any time.Jason was not going to give up when he had spent all that time waiting for her. "Corinne, are you really going to ditch me now? You said you'd go with me if I waited for you!""I said you can build the gallery, so why are you still upset? Or is it because you secretly want me to go against your idea after we've been to Serenity Bay?""I want you to go with me because I want you to see how bold and creative my idea is! Who know

"We'll take the company's car, and you can take your own car when we come back later," said Corinne.Jason raised an eyebrow. "Why? Wouldn't it be more convenient for us to take my car?""But it's more appropriate for us to take the company car since we're going on a business field trip. This way, there won't be any misunderstanding."Jason frowned helplessly. "Don't you think you're being a bit too cautious, Corinne?"Corinne did not explain herself further. She immediately got into the company minivan that the driver had brought around.Jason shrugged and got into the car with her.…Sophia woke up early in the morning to make breakfast for Jeremy. She was hoping he would become less angry at her for what happened yesterday if she ramped up her performance. She cooked some bacon, eggs, and some toast.Jeremy brought Benjamin over to the dining table, and they ate silently.Sophia peeled a hard-boiled egg and passed it to Jeremy. "Here, have an egg, Zachary. How about we take

Adam was on his way to meet an old friend. His expression immediately soured when he saw his good-for-nothing son-in-law.Seeing Adam was ignoring her, Sophia repeated, "Hey, Dad. Zachary and I were just going to take Benjamin out for a stroll. Do you want to join us?"Adam scoffed. "You all don't look like you really want me to go.""Nonsense! Of course we'd love for you to join."Adam waved his hand. "Forget it. I'm not the type of person to tag along where I'm not welcomed."After that, he put his hands behind his back and walked to the elevator with his entourage behind him.Sophia frowned and sighed helplessly. Her relationship with Adam had been tense the past few days. She wondered when he would transfer all of his assets to her.Sophia did not want to have another quarrel with her father, so she deliberately slowed down her pace while wheeling Jeremy so that they would have to take the next elevator ride.On the way, Jeremy asked, "Did you and your father argue?"Sophi

Jeremy made no further comment on what Sophia said.Ding! The elevator door opened."Let's go," said Jeremy softly.Sophia wheeled him out while mulling over what he just said. She could not help but find it strange he would suddenly bring up that topic.They got into the RV, and the driver drove them to Serenity Bay. The reason Sophia was willing to take Jeremy and Benjamin out for a stroll was because she already bought flight tickets back to Molomia. They would be leaving in three days. No matter whether Adam had wrapped up his work, she would take Jeremy home first.She would undergo IVF surgery tomorrow, and she would then rest for two days before leaving home for Molomia. She thought it would be nice to look around New Capital City since there was a high chance they would not ever come back there anymore.The RV stopped in an open field, and Sophia wheeled Jeremy out."Zachary, the air here is so much fresher than the city center! But of course, still not as fresh as the o

"Really, Daddy? We're really going to live with Mommy Corinne?" asked Benjamin happily."Yes, we are," answered Jeremy while looking at his son gently and firmly.At that moment, Benjamin blinked and narrowed his eyes as he looked at a point somewhere far ahead. He then blinked again."Daddy, I think I'm seeing things. I must be missing Mommy Corinne so much that I'm seeing her here!"Jeremy was a little taken aback by what Benjamin said. He turned to where the little boy was looking in disbelief, and his pupils immediately shrank when he saw Corinne.Benjamin was not seeing things at all! It was indeed Corinne. She stood a little further than them as she talked to a man. Judging by their gesture, they looked to be really close.Having regained his memory, Jeremy could recognize the man to be Jason Talbot. He knew Jason had a crush on Corinne for the longest time, so he simply assumed the other man was trying to get into her pants again.Jeremy's eyes immediately turned cold, so

Corinne spotted them!Corinne was discussing with Jason about how to develop the land at Serenity Bay when she sensed someone was staring at her. She turned to the particular direction, and her expression froze when she saw Sophia, Jeremy, and Benjamin. She did not expect to run into them there!Jason, meanwhile, clung to Corinne's words adoringly. He rarely came across such a wise and calm girl as her, and the more he got to know her, the more he liked her.However, he found it weird that she would suddenly stop talking. He turned to look at where she was looking as well, and was shocked to see Jeremy some distance away.'He's back?!' he wondered.Corinne and Jason stared at Jeremy for a long time, and it was Jason who snapped out of his daze first. He turned toward Corinne and said, "Corinne, Jeremy…"Corinne did not even wait for him to finish his sentence before she started walking over to Jeremy. She gave Sophia a death glare and said, "So this is the husband you've mentione

Sophia crossed her arms. "So what if I did? He doesn't remember who you are now, nor is he going to go back with you!"Corinne raised an eyebrow. "Do you want to bet on it?"She turned and walked up to Jeremy, but Sophia stopped her by grabbing her arm. "What do you think you're doing? I forbid you from talking to him!""What's the matter? Are you scared? You just said he doesn't remember me, nor is he going to go back with me. Were you just bluffing?"Sophia's expression darkened as her grip tightened on Corinne's arm. "He's my husband now. I have the right to forbid other women from talking to him!"…While the two women were quarreling a few yards away, Jeremy and Jason remained where they were, staring at each other.Jason was undoubtedly surprised to see Jeremy. After all, he had been missing for three years!After snapping out of his shock, he narrowed his eyes and said, "It's been a while, Jeremy."Jeremy's eyes remained calm, as did his tone when he asked, "Do I know y

Jason pulled Corinne next to him. It pained him to see a red handprint mark where Sophia had gripped her."Tsk, tsk. I know you two are excited to see each other again, but you shouldn't have hurt Corinne like that, Sophia!" said Jason with a smile.It was obvious Jason was trying to get into Corinne's good graces by protecting her. However, it just made her dislike him even more.Sophia remained upbeat. She glanced at how close they were standing to each other and said, "Sorry, Mister Jason. I was so happy to see Corinne that I didn't realize I was holding on to her so tightly. I'm really sorry for hurting your girlfriend."Jason was, of course, happy to have people think Corinne was his girlfriend."That's alright. I know you girls like to have body contact when talking to each other. I was hoping to treat you to dinner since we haven't seen each other for so long, but your husband seems like he's in a hurry to go to the next destination. Another day, perhaps," he said as if he

Sherman could not help but feel fearful when he recalled the incident.Rita gently smoothed his furrowed brow. "I knew you'd come to rescue me, just like all the times you did. I love you, Sherman."Previously, Rita confessed her love to him when she was groggy. At this moment, however, she was clearly awake, even sporting a faint smile on her face as she confessed.Sherman immediately blushed. "I love you, too."Rita did not stay long in the hospital; she quickly returned to the Parr family's mansion. Just as Sherman's grandparents had said, Rita did not have any major injuries, so there was no need for her to stay in the hospital that long. In fact, she might even recover faster emotionally under the care at home.Not once did Sherman bring up Rita's job, but she surprisingly resigned from New Capital Times on her own accord. It would be difficult for her to investigate cases with her current condition; not to mention Sherman had handed over the evidence to the police. The polic

"Sherman, I like you. I love you," Rita finally confessed.Sherman, deeply pained, pulled Rita into his arms. "This is all my fault. I should've looked for you quicker. I've never blamed you. All I want is to see you smile. It's enough for me as long as you're willing to let me stay by your side."You don't have to confess to me. I know it's hard for you to do that because of your family. I've seen the way they've treated you, and…"The bodyguards who had barged in with Sherman felt a bit awkward to see their company president in tears. However, the priority was to get Rita to the hospital for a check-up. Being tied up for hours could cause circulation issues, and it could be dangerous if her limbs did not regain feelings soon.In the end, they got the bravest among them to convince Sherman to let them take Rita to the hospital. Instead of letting them do it, Sherman wiped away his tears and, with ease, lifted Rita as if she was as light as a feather.Fortunately, after the hospit

With that, Karen left without looking back. She was carrying Vince's baby in her womb, so how could she pin all her hopes on Sadie? Since Sadie was obviously unruly, she would have to rely on her son.'Sadie can spend the rest of her life with Esmond since she likes him so much. God knows it had been exhausting enough to raise her. Plus, it's only fair for Esmond to take care of her since I've done my part taking care of her until now,' thought Karen.Meanwhile, the only consolation for Sherman was that Esmond did not try to put up a fight. It seemed that he still cared about his daughter Sadie.Sherman led his men to a dilapidated house. Esmond had been cautious enough to choose a rundown house situated at the end of a village.When Sherman barged in, he found Rita lying on the floor while Esmond's men ignored her. Esmond's men had followed his orders, and since he did not instruct them to do anything to Rita, they left her well alone.Before the men could react, they were surrou

Karen cried and silently knelt by Sadie's side without trying to defend herself. Sadie, on the other hand, feebly tried to explain herself. Alas. Vince refused to listen.There had been many occasions before when he had chosen to believe Karen and Sadie, but at this moment, he realized he had been terribly wrong to do that.Rita used to be so kind, understanding, and well-behaved. However, ever since Karen and Sadie moved in, Vince felt like his daughter had become manipulative, always trying to compete for attention, and stirring up jealousy in front of him.Unfortunately, it took Rita's disappearance to make Vince realize that Rita was not trying to compete for attention. All Rita wanted from him was to treat her the same as Sadie.Vince used to think that Rita should give in to Sadie more since Sadie was younger, too."Why don't you go live with your biological father since you prefer him so much? I never want to see you show your face around here anymore! As for your mother, s

Sadie was so anxious that she wanted to jump out. "Mom, don't tell me you fell for it! Why did you call Esmond? Now they all know where Rita is. You've ruined everything, again! What were you thinking?"Karen could not care less. She cried and slapped Sadie. "You nearly scared me to death! What would I do if something happened to you? I didn't raise you just to watch you die. I told you not to meet up with Esmond, so why did you secretly meet up with him? How can you ask him to get rid of Rita?"Are you out of your mind? All I want is for us to live out the rest of our lives peacefully, so why didn't you listen to me?!"Sadie was furious. Karen had stopped trying to get rid of Rita ever since she got pregnant, so how could Sadie not be angry? Rita was like a thorn in her side, and Sadie would never be happy unless Rita was dead."Don't you know I like Sherman? How could you ask me to do nothing when Rita has stolen him from me?! I was the one who liked him first. It's either Rita g

Karen wanted so badly to slap Esmond through the phone.'What good are his pompous words now? We wouldn't be in this mess now if he hadn't hit me back then! What's more, he's saying he's doing this for Sadie. But has he ever thought of what would happen to me and Sadie if he got rid of Rita? Rita's the heiress of the Russell family. Not to mention, she's married to Sherman, so that makes her owner of Parr Group too! What makes Esmond think he can get rid of Rita so easily?'Karen's breath was ragged as she said, "If you don't believe me, just listen to your daughter's screams. I can't save her now; you will literally decide her fate! Plus, I'm pregnant with Vince's baby, so even if I lose Sadie, I still have a kid—which is more than what I can say about you!"Sherman could not help but be impressed by Karen a little. Even in this dire situation, she did not forget to express her heartfelt feelings to Vince, letting him know that she was always on his side. It was certainly not an ea

"Sherman raised an eyebrow. "Don't worry, I'm sure it's just a minor injury, maybe just a finger. There shouldn't be any major issues. A sprained joint takes only a hundred days to heal, and it might take her even less time to heal if you take very good care of her while she's recuperating."Karen's heart ached upon hearing that. She lunged toward Sherman, wanting to hit him, but the bodyguards stopped her before she could get close.Vince, still worried, held Karen tightly beside him. "Calm down. I'm sure Sadie will come out unharmed if Rita's kidnapping has nothing to do with her. But if it does, then you should know very well that…"Vince's voice dropped an octave. He could not believe his daughter's disappearance had anything to do with his stepdaughter. However, he was not utterly naive.He continued, "How could a girl like her take Rita away? Even the car window was smashed. Others must've been involved. Does her biological father have anything to do with it?"Sherman nodded

"Yes, it's true I met up with my biological father, but it was just a one-time thing. I don't want to go back to him at all! Otherwise, I would've done it ages ago. Dad, I'm really grateful to you for taking me in and looking after me all these years. That's why I feel like you're my real father, even more real than those who share the same blood."How could you unjustly accuse me and Mom like that? Sherman is the one spouting nonsense here. He's trying to push all the blame onto us. Dad, you have to wake up and see the truth!"Karen nodded along, but her heart was racing. 'When did Sadie meet Esmond? How did Sherman know when I don't even know? Seems like Sadie does have something to do with Rita's kidnapping. I have to settle things and get Sherman out of here.'Karen never had the thought of rekindling her relationship with Esmond. The only thing she wanted then was to peacefully give birth to her son. Everything in the Russell family would eventually go to her son, and she would

Sherman detested people pointing their fingers at him when they spoke. He stood up slowly, towering over Vince instantly."You claim to be Rita's father, yet if I were you, I'd choose to shut up and stand aside. I can't believe you're scolding me for threatening Sadie when she's not even your real daughter!"Look at her guilty expression; it's clear she's involved. If you don't believe me, use your brain a little. No wonder Russell Group is declining under your leadership. It's only a matter of time before the company goes completely bankrupt!"Sherman showed no mercy, causing Vince to retreat with every word. Vince clutched his chest, struggling for breath.Karen, despite her weakness, stepped forward to support him. "How could you speak to your father-in-law like this? What has Sadie done to offend you? She has nothing but admiration for you. Plus, she's just a child. How could you treat her like this?"She went on and on, but Sherman stood his ground. Meanwhile, the burly bodyg
