As expected, once Caroline heard that James had requested that himself, she became less angry. She said slowly, "Since that's what James wanted, I believe he hopes you'll deepen your knowledge to improve your capabilities and be a better wife. However, you're a woman, so you can't be too ambitious."Caroline changed the topic. It seemed like she wasn't causing trouble for Summer anymore. Summer immediately said, "Don't worry, Mom. I'm not very ambitious. I just returned to the company to reduce my father's workload and to improve myself."Then, Caroline nodded and prepared to leave. However, she suddenly noticed a stack of documents on the table. She curiously picked up the documents and looked at them. "What is this?" Summer realized that the documents were for investment projects with property companies that Charter Corporation was involved in. "These are our business reports. We've received two important projects recently," she explained. "Is that so? You're pretty cap

"Are you still trying to give me excuses?" Caroline sneered. She continued, "I looked at one of the two projects, and it can't be given away that easily. I know that James will help you because he feels bad for you, but are you dumb? If you didn't want to steal the Quigleys' assets, would you have taken over the two projects from him?"Her eyes narrowed viciously, and she looked like an evil witch from a fairytale. Meanwhile, Summer felt deeply upset. No matter what she said, Caroline would still scold her. Her mother-in-law believed that she wanted to embezzle the Quigleys' assets. "Mom, this is the truth. I can't change your mind if you're certain I want to steal the Quigley's properties," Summer replied. "Okay, I'll take this as a confession." Caroline threw the stack of documents on the table loudly. A few sheets of paper from other documents floated from the impact. The tension in the room was palpable. After seeing how angry Caroline looked, Summer didn't dare to mak

"Where are you going, Mr. Quigley? Do you have an important event later on?" Xyla asked. Xyla was James' personal secretary, so she knew his work schedule. She thought he had a work schedule as he looked like he was in a rush. James told her that he had something planned and wanted to return home early. Women were usually sensitive and empathetic. Xyla was no exception. Although James's expression remained aloof, she felt he looked different that day. His footsteps seemed lighter, and he looked happier. Since she knew what happened between James and Summer, she teased, "Mr. Quigley, you're going to look for Mrs. Quigley, right?"After being exposed by Xyla, James' expression turned a little odd. However, he didn't respond and just walked faster. Xyla couldn't help but laugh at the sight. She stared at James' retreating figure and muttered, "Mr. Quigley is really funny. If he's returning home to meet Mrs. Quigley, he should just admit it. What's there to be embarrassed about?

Summer felt a little guilty. She didn't want to tell James what Caroline did. Otherwise, he would definitely confront his mother again.His conflict with her had already intensified. Caroline was outraged that James had moved out of the Quigley residence. If Summer told him about the incident, their relationship would worsen terribly. As such, Summer said, "Nothing happened. If there were, I'd certainly tell you about it."Meanwhile, James knew that his wife was forcing herself to look happy. She was a naive woman who didn't know how to lie or pretend. So, he saw through her terrible acting. "Summie, can you tell me the truth? I'm really worried about you. I told you that I wouldn't let anything bad happen to you. I also told you that since we have become a real married couple, we should share all our secrets without hiding anything."James held Summer's hand tightly. His palms were warm, which brought her comfort. Summer almost gave in to James' request. She really wanted to

They stared at each other. Both felt an intense connection with one another. After their conversation earlier, they seemed to share a similar feeling. It was as if they were telepathic and could see each other's emotions clearly. "I got it…" Finally, Summer decided to tell James what had happened. She knew the truth couldn't be hidden because her husband knew how sad she was. As such, he would also be affected by her emotions. Instead of being upset together, Summer should just tell him the problem. What was the true meaning of a married couple? It meant that no matter what happened, they would overcome all difficulties together. She then told James everything that had happened between Simone, Caroline, and her. Frustration was evident on James' face after she finished. He knew Caroline was vicious and manipulative, but he didn't expect her to do that. He didn't expect Caroline would suspect Summer of embezzling Quigley Group's assets. After being with his wife for a l

James stood below the staircase and looked as if he was going to greet Caroline. However, his demeanor was very aloof, and he showed no sign of respect toward his mother at all. Caroline realized something had happened, but she didn't let worry show on her face. She sat on the couch with Luca's help and asked kindly, "James, were you looking for me? What happened?""Did you look for Summie today? You said some nasty things to her, right?"Once James mentioned Summer, Caroline's expression darkened. She wanted to chat with her son because they finally met after a long while, and to grow closer to him again. However, James mentioned Summer again. She felt very upset at the mention of that name. "James, it's rare for you to come home. Don't talk about her anymore, alright? You know that I don't like her.""Mom, I told you a long time ago that I was the one who chose my wife. I don't want anyone else apart from Summer! It doesn't matter whether you like her or not. She's my wife." J

Yet, Caroline couldn't let him be too obsessed with another woman. After all, many men had been ruined by women since time immemorial. She hoped that James wouldn't ruin Quigley Group just because of Summer. "James, you have to be very clear about one thing. No matter how you feel about Summer, she isn't suited to be a member of the Quigleys," Caroline said strictly. She continued, "Even if what you said was true, and that Summer was a virtuous woman who didn't keep in contact with her ex, she has influenced your behavior. Haven't you realized that you've changed?""How have I changed?""You only care about Summer now. What do you mean that you haven't changed? Have you forgotten about Uncle Homer? He ruined his life because of a woman."Uncle Homer was Homer Yancey. Homer was the third child of the Yancey family and was the most capable person there. He was going to be the heir of the family 30 years ago. The Yanceys had a tradition of finding an heir based on their age.

If Summer had a child, Caroline would turn a blind eye even if she wanted to embezzle Quigley Group's properties.Yet, nothing mattered if Summer didn't have a child. This was the baseline for Caroline. So long as Summer had a child, everything else could be discussed.James' expression turned serious. He knew it was possible to have a child with Summer within six months. After all, they were a healthy couple. As such, she could get pregnant within that time frame. Yet, was Summer willing to go through the stages of pregnancy and give birth?Still, they had already consummated their marriage. If they wanted to continue living happily, having a child would be necessary. Thus, James agreed to Caroline's request. However, he had one condition. "Mom, we can have a child, but I'd like to hold a wedding.""A wedding?""Yes. I want to give Summer a wedding. I wish to marry her officially, and I want everyone to know that she's my wife."His voice grew louder as he spoke. Every wom
