[Soul. What I want is for you to put your heart and soul into the design. This and the design must reflect Holden Group's commitment to providing value to the public. I didn't spend all that money to hire you just for your professional skills but also for the care you put into designing Crescent Building. Don't try to fool me with this hastily rushed design that looks flawless but has no soul. Moon, I can see that you're quite proficient in your designing skills, but you're not taking this project seriously.]Corinne was stunned, though she agreed with what Jeremy wrote. Indeed, she did not put her heart and soul into the design she sent him. Instead, she relied on her refined technical skills to come up with another soulless design.'Jeremy is right. I need to put my heart and soul into this, just like how I did with Crescent Building. Besides, it's reasonable for him to demand that I come up with a better design since he's paying a hundred fifty million dollars,' thought Corinne.

Bowen was surprised when he heard what Lilliana said, but he immediately put on a respectful and kind smile. 'So they're Ma'am's family! What an honor it is to have them come here! I need to make sure to treat them with the utmost respect.'However, he also reminded himself that he needed to make sure the three of them were who they said were. He could not just let anybody in without confirming their identity, so he said, "Please wait for a moment. I'll need to inform Ma'am first."He left the intercom and went upstairs to inform Corinne of the unannounced visit from her family. Even though Jeremy specifically asked him not to wake her up, he had no choice but to do so since everything happened so unexpectedly.…The knocking on the door woke up Corinne. She frowned and groggily answered, "Yes?""Ma'am, a middle-aged couple and their daughter who looked to be your age had come to visit you. They said they're your family, but I'm not sure if that's true, so I've come to ask you."

'Does she think she can do whatever she wants here, just because she's Corinne's sister?' thought the two servants.However, they had been trained, regardless of the situation, not to show their displeasure to guests, so the two of them respectfully led the Carews into the mansion.Sherlyn had been to the mansion's grounds before with Corinne, but this was her first time stepping into the mansion, so she was looking curiously at everything around her. However, she did not seem all too happy when she came to the inner courtyard.With the air of the woman of the household, she crossed her arms haughtily and looked down her nose at the inner courtyard's design. Then, shaking her head, she said, "This mansion isn't that bad, but can we do something about the old-fashioned design? I don't like this kind of Victorian-era style of decoration. We need to do some revamping once I move in."And that old pine tree over there has grown too big. It's blocking the sunlight from filtering into th

The two servants who led the Carews in approached Bowen and asked meaningfully, "Mister Hoover, are they truly Ma'am's family? Why do they act so differently than her?""Yeah. They seem to think the mansion belongs to them instead of them just being guests. Just now, they even said they're going to revamp the whole yard! They wanted to have the old pine tree cut down and for Mister Greg's precious orchids to be thrown out!"Bowen frowned, not understanding why the Carews behaved like that. "That's enough coming from you two. The two of you would do well to remember they're Ma'am's family. Instead of gossiping here, you should go make a pot of coffee and ask the kitchen to prepare some fruits and snacks for them. Remember: only the utmost respect for her family. We wouldn't want them to have a bad impression of their first visit here.""Yes, Mister Hoover," chorused the two servants in unison, and the two of them went to the kitchen.…Sherlyn leaned languidly against the expensive

Sherlyn stood up angrily. "Yeah! Is Corinne trying to make a big entrance? How dare she let us wait when we, her family, have come to visit her? She's probably guilt-ridden to face us. Well, I guess I just have to go upstairs and drag her down myself!"She then impatiently got up from the sofa and started to make her way to the stairs. Bowen frowned and immediately signaled with his eyes to the servant beside him to stop her.The servant blocked Sherlyn's path, which enraged her. "Get out of the way! Why are you stopping me?" she asked arrogantly.He remained standing where he was, not moving an inch.Bowen walked over to Sherlyn and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Carew, but only the residents of this house can go upstairs. As a guest, you need to remain downstairs. I do hope you can understand."Sherlyn obviously did not agree with him. "How dare you stop me? I'm not a guest at all! Don't you all know I'm the rightful wife of—""Sherlyn, why are you making all this fuss in the morning?"

Sherlyn smiled smugly when she saw how shocked Bowen was. "That's right. It's exactly as I've said. I'm the rightful Missus Holden, the woman that all you servants should listen to!"Bowen had been in all kinds of situations in his life, and he cultivated the skill to stay calm under fire. However, at that moment, he could not help but laugh out loud at the supremely confident Sherlyn. His laughter set off a chain reaction, and the other servants standing there burst into laughter as well.Sherlyn was made very uncomfortable by them laughing at her. She glared at them and snapped, "Hey! What are you all laughing at? I'm telling the truth!"Bowen then forced back his laughter and cleared his throat; he returned to his usual professional self. "I do apologize for laughing, Miss Carew, but it seems like you're still in dreamland. Might I suggest that you take a nap in any of the rooms of your choosing on the second floor?""Why you…" Sherlyn felt humiliated by Bowen. She wanted to ret

Corinne nodded and walked leisurely toward the living room."Mister Carew, Missus Carew, it's been a while," greeted Corinne with a faint polite smile.'Did she just call me Mister Carew?' thought Marvin with a frown. Then, out loud, he asked, "What did you just call me, you ungrateful child?"Corinne sat on an armchair that was quite a distance away from where the Carews sat. She took a deliberate sip of the Blue Mountain Coffee that the maid passed her before looking up and saying, "What's wrong with calling you Mister Carew? Isn't that your surname after all?"After finding out she had no blood relation to Marvin at all, Corinne could not, and would not, call him 'Dad' anymore. He was not her biological father, and he was not the one who brought her up either. No, a person like him who threw her away to the countryside did not deserve to be called a father.Marvin glared at Corinne, who he found more irksome as the minutes ticked by. He scoffed and lectured her, "Corinne Carew,

The fact that Corinne lowered her head seemed to have made Sherlyn haughtier. "How do we plan to punish you? Well, that depends on my mood and how sincere you are in apologizing to us."At that moment, Lilliana sighed helplessly and gently persuaded her daughter, "Forget it, Sherlyn. Corinne is your sister after all, so you shouldn't punish her."She turned toward Corinne and said with mock compassion, "Corinne, Sherlyn could never return to the peak of her career because you took her place as Missus Holden for so long. But it's okay, we won't ask you to compensate her for the loss 'cause we'll just put it down as you being young and stupid. However, you'll need to give back the title of Missus Holden to Sherlyn, so it'll be great if you can just pack up your things and leave her without a fuss. Of course, you'll need to promise us you'll never show your face here again and stop coming in between Jeremy and Sherlyn. I guarantee you we'll let bygones be bygones if you just do as I sai
