Tobias asked in a confused tone, "What in the world happened?"Howard said, "Back then, we were choosing the next successor for Ripley Group. All three of my sons had a chance to be my heir. I'd made up my mind to let Zeke take over the company."However, Lord knows who spread the rumor and sent everyone in the company into a heated discussion about it. Everyone thought I would hand over the position to my youngest son, Zayne. "They thought that he looked simple-minded and that such a person was favored by God. They thought that Zayne had a good chance to win against all odds. I found the rumor massively unhelpful when I heard it."It's like everyone says—don't trust the rumors. However, that was exactly what Zeke did. He hired someone to kidnap you and orchestrated the whole abduction. "At first, he wanted to frame Zayne for it. However, his plan backfired on him. The cops were giving chase to the kidnappers, and he got shot in the pursuit. After that, he fell off the ship and

Cedric stared at the documents in front of him in surprise. He picked them up and flipped through them. The longer he read them, the more awful he looked. His eyes were filled with disbelief. Tobias pulled out his phone. He played up the security footage and showed it to Cedric. "Take a look at the footage after you're done with the documents."Cedric's expression was even more awful after he watched it. "The man in the footage… Is he our long-lost Uncle Zander?""Exactly!""He underwent plastic surgery and changed his name. Do you think all of this is related to my dad's death?""What do you think?" Instead of answering Cedric, Tobias threw him another question. He stared at Cedric inquisitively, while the latter's eyes were laced with a mix of emotions. Cedric remained quiet for a long time and didn't make a peep. Things became awkward and tense in the private room. After a long time, Cedric murmured, "Why did Uncle Zander have to go through plastic surgery? Why did he adop

Tobias had confirmed another batch of business partners in front of his alleged business partners. He was blatantly humiliating them. The four investors instantly hit the roof."Tobias. We're the ones who were supposed to sign the contract today, and yet you made last-minute changes. No one does business the way you do it. You've played us for fools!""You'd better have an explanation for this. Otherwise, I will not let this slide.""Exactly. Do you even know the regulations in the business circle? You can't just change it on a whim. What makes you think we have to let you have your way?""If you dare breach the contract, we will not hesitate to take this to court. Things aren't going to end well for you then!"All four of them made a ruckus, demanding an explanation from Tobias. Meanwhile, the reporters reacted eagerly and ceaselessly snapped pictures. One of them asked, "What exactly is the meaning of this, Mr. Ripley? Can you please explain it clearly?"Tobias took in their

Tobias' lips curled into a grin when he saw Cedric come to the venue with evidence. It looked like he'd been right to place his faith in Cedric one last time. The latter had arrived at the press conference venue with evidence to expose Joaquin at last.Cedric might've been careless, but he'd had a contingency plan when he'd been in cahoots with Joaquin. He'd made a copy of everything the latter did. So, the evidence Tobias collected had struck the first blow, and Cedric's evidence was another blow for Joaquin.The host projected all the evidence onto the big screen. The people around were shocked to the core, and they started berating Joaquin harshly. Joaquin knew he had failed big time. Cedric looked at Tobias, smiling once more. "I was stupid and gullible, Tobe. This time, I made up for it. I hope you'll forgive me."Tobias' lips curled into a grin. He patted Cedric on the shoulder and said, "Fantastic. Now, this is the Cedric I know!" Both of them exchanged a smile. Things we

It seemed like Maya was ready to fight to the bitter end. She didn't struggle. Instead, she said, "If you don't believe in these test results, then do the paternity test with your dad in front of the reporters once more!"Maya added, "You'll see if I'm telling the truth after that!"One of the reporters asked, "Why are you exposing their identities in public? What do you gain from this?"Maya responded, "I don't like them. That's all."Maya seized the opportunity to tear down Lucy and Tobias simply because she didn't like them, not because of conflicts of interest. It made her claims very questionable. The reporter asked, "Could you and Mrs. Ripley do the paternity tests once more, Mr. Ripley?""That's right. You two have to do it again. That's the only way we'll know who's lying."Everyone put Tobias and Lucy on the spot. Rhett looked a little panicked. Meanwhile, Fiona seemed to have recalled something, and her eyes became shifty as well.Tobias maintained his calmness and

Tobias and Lucy were thrust into the eye of the storm after the mess at the press conference in the afternoon. "What a shocker. Tobias Ripley isn't one of the Ripleys after all. The once nobleman turned into a bastard in the span of a night. What's your take on this?""Surprising revelation. We have proof that Lucy Everhart doesn't belong to the Eberhard family."All of a sudden, these two news made the headlines. Meanwhile, someone secretly gave them a shove by releasing an audio recording onto the internet. It instantly solidified the fact that Lucy wasn't one of the Eberhards. The audio recording contained Rhett's confession. "I loved Lucy so much, and I just couldn't shake the feeling that she was my long-lost younger sister. "So, I found someone to secretly forge the report. Then, I lied to Brett and told him that Lucy was the younger sister we've been searching for so long." Once the audio recording was released, a lot of netizens watched it. Back in the Ripley resi

The moment Tobias said what he said, Brett had a pretty good idea of what Tobias was going to ask. He looked at Rhett helplessly and sighed. "Get up, Rhett." Rhett nodded and rose to his feet with Millie's help. Brett said, "Let's talk in the living room, Tobias."All of them walked to the living room and sat on the couch. Tobias asked, "What are you going to do if Lucy turns out not to be your younger sister after all?"Brett mulled it over for a brief moment and said, "As far as I'm concerned, Lucy's as good as my younger sister. It doesn't matter if we are related by blood."Tobias heard Brett's response and nodded in satisfaction. He said, "It's very easy to handle this. You can either do the DNA test with Lucy once more, or you can make a public announcement that you'll adopt her as a stepsister. You have two options here."Brett frowned and said, "They say the third time's the charm, but all three of the DNA tests came back negative. I don't think there's a need to do it
The Shotgun Marriage: She's the Apple of His Eye Chapter 404
Lucy felt heartache and held Tobias' hand, providing him some comfort. They had been married for more than a year and had an unspoken language between them. A single gesture or look was seemingly enough for them to know each other's thoughts.Tobias felt the comfort Lucy was sending his way and flashed her an affectionate smile. Both of them looked into each other's eyes, and things felt just right between them. Meanwhile, Rhett asked, "Who do you think could've leaked our conversation at the restaurant, Tobias?"Tobias came back to his senses and said coldly, "It doesn't matter who it was. It won't end well for her after I suss her out!" His voice was deep, and there was a sense of menace in it. His words were so cold and sharp that it made everyone have goosebumps.At the same time, Brett's phone rang. It was a call from an unknown number. Just as he was wondering if he should take up the call, Rhett reminded him, "Why aren't you taking the call, Brett?"Brett answered it and
