Tobias sat back on the director's chair and said with a solemn face, "Let him in."Moments later, Case led Kenny into his office. Fear flashed in the latter's eyes the moment he saw Tobias, but he quickly suppressed it.Tobias said, "Have a seat, Dr. Young. I have some questions for you.""You're renowned and powerful, Mr. Ripley. What business could you have with a commoner like me?""There's no need to be nervous." Tobias raised his eyebrow and said, "I'm going to ask you something. All you have to do is tell me the truth. I won't put you in a difficult position."Kenny's eyes darkened. "Do tell.""Do you know this lady?" Tobias pulled out a picture of Maya and put it on the table. Kenny shook his head frantically. "I don't.""You're lying."Tobias put pressure on him on purpose. "She came to the hospital for a check-up the morning before yesterday. She bribed you with a huge sum of money and asked you to tamper with her medical report."Maya has admitted to it. There's no

Tobias had managed to secure some valuable information. As for Lucy's end, Emily had also found out more information.Lucy had woken up from her nap. She was about to draw some designs with Sasha when Emily came over to report her findings. "I dug up more information, Ms. Lucy. Do you want to hear it?""Sure. Go ahead." In short, Emily's report covered more about how machismo Quinton was, while Luther seemed to have been enjoying all the perks of being privileged since birth. He would often ask Maya to figure out a way to scrape together some money for him. If she failed at that, he would beat her up brutally.Lucy's heart sank after she heard what Emily said. She asked, "Did you manage to find out if Maya is willingly working together with Joey, or is she being coerced into it?""Um… I haven't found out anything about that." Emily paused for a while before she continued, "With that said, I managed to get her phone number."I think we can talk it out with her. We could giv

If memory served him right, the last time someone had begged to become Lucy's mentee was when they had been in Faldoria. The lady was a famous designer in her country. Tobias had been amazed back then. After that, a lot of things had happened, and he hadn't had the chance to ask Lucy about it. So, the matter had been left unresolved.Now, he heard "Alicia" begging for Lucy to take her in as a mentee. Aside from being shocked, he was also amazed.According to his investigation, Lucy was an ordinary woman. How did she have what it took to take these extraordinary people in as her mentees?Was it possible that his investigation hadn't been thorough enough?Tobias was still stuck in his thoughts when he heard Lucy's voice. She rejected Sasha coldly. "That's a no. I don't intend to take in mentee now."Sasha was disappointed. She sighed and begged Lucy, "You have been guiding me for so many days, Lucy. Every design I submitted to Ripley Group was drawn under your guidance. "I mig

Tobias frowned when he heard what Lucy said. A hint of bewilderment flashed in his eyes."Did the DNA test result come back negative? That's not possible!"`Tobias had confidence in his employees' capabilities. There was no way they could have made such a mistake.He was in disbelief. He forgot that this information would disappoint and upset Lucy a lot. He said to her, "There has to be something wrong with this DNA test."Lucy looked at Brett and Rhett. She bit her lips and lowered her head in silence. In a matter of a second, things got awkward.Rhett said, "The test result might tell us that we aren't related by blood, but we have spent some time with Lucy recently. I can tell you that I love her from the bottom of my heart, Mr. Ripley."The moment Rhett said it, Tobias' eyes darkened. He gave the former an alarming look. "Did you just say that you love Lucy?"Rhett sensed the hostility in his tone and waved hastily. He explained, "Don't get me wrong, Mr. Ripley. I love Luc

Maya didn't understand why Joey cared about that. However, she didn't dare to ignore the latter's question. "I overheard them talking just now. I think they're going to do the DNA test again."Joey heard what she said and was wracked with nerves. "They're thinking of doing it again?"Maya responded, "Yeah."She didn't understand why Joey sounded so panicked. "Is there anything else you need, Joey?""Did you hear about some other information, Maya?"Maya pondered on it and said, "Brett and Rhett said that their long-lost younger sister has an emerald pendant. That's all I know, Joey."Joey heard what Maya said and mulled it over for a brief moment. She had never seen Lucy wear an emerald pendant. Lucy could've hidden it away or lost it.Joey said, "Thanks, Maya. Come over to Ripley Residence tonight. I made you some soup.""I appreciate that, Joey. I'll be there soon."Once both of them ended the call, Joey pondered on the situation and had a headache. Her efforts would go to w

"Birthmarks?" Brett and Rhett swapped glances. "Hmm. There's a red birthmark behind Lulu's ear, as well as on her left clavicle. Moreover, she carried an emerald pendant—our family heirloom. "If you find someone that checks all the boxes, you have to do the DNA test," Lisa said.Both of them nodded solemnly. Brett responded, "Don't worry, Mom. We'll do everything we can to find our younger sister."Lisa sighed and looked worried. She couldn't help but burst into tears when she thought of her beloved little girl having no place to call home. Tears streamed down her cheeks as her heart sank. "Don't be sad, Mom. We'll find her.""Lulu's birthday is around the corner. I have no idea if she has had any proper birthday celebration ever since she got lost."Brett and Rhett became disheartened instantly. Both of them gave Lisa a warm hug and comforted her wordlessly. She was old and easily exhausted. It didn't take long for her to fall asleep. Both of them left the ward quietly a

Brett shot Rhett a warning look. The latter couldn't care less about it. He pushed Brett away and helped Marcus sit. "You have to listen to us and stop throwing fits, Dad. I'll bring her here after she's recovered from her injuries."Marcus said in an agitated tone, "How did she get hurt? Who dared to hurt Lulu? I'm going to make sure the person who did this pays for it!""That person is already put behind bars, Dad. She has gotten her comeuppance. Calm down and lie on the bed."Marcus relaxed after he heard what Rhett said. However, he didn't lie down for long before he stood up yet again. "You have to take me to her now. Is she hurt badly? I used to dote on her when she was a child. I was worried that she might trip and fall. "I'm sure it's very painful for her. Take me to her quickly, Brett. I need to blow on her wound."Marcus mistakenly addressed Rhett as Brett. It made both of them exchange glances. Their eyes were filled with indescribable pain."You're going to spook

"Do what you want. In any case, Lucy isn't going to be a part of our family," Brett said before he turned and left. Rhett picked up his pace and followed him. At the same time, Lucy rested for a long time at the hospital. The doctor told her that she could be discharged and rest at home instead. So, Tobias arranged for a car and carried her to the wheelchair. He was ready to take her back to his villa to look after her. However, he received a call from Joey when he reached the entrance. He looked at his phone and frowned in frustration, but he answered it eventually. "Hello.""Mariam and Cedric have come to visit us, Tobe. You should come home tonight so we can hang out.""Cedric? Isn't he overseas a few days ago?"Mariam Munoz was Tobias' aunt, and Cedric Ripley was his cousin. Both of them had grown up together and were close to each other. "They came back yesterday. At first, I invited Mariam over for dinner, but Cedric heard about it and wanted to tag along.""Sure."
