Tiffany was utterly dumbfounded, and her hand that was holding the phone was trembling.‘How did things develop to where they are now? Is this it for me? Am I done already?’She suddenly remembered someone and immediately found a number on her phone and dialed it. After a long time, the call went through. “Zep— Mr. Gosling, I’m in some trouble, and you’re the only person who can help me now. Can you...”Zephir asked indifferently, “Who told you to attack Daisie?”She was stunned for a split second. “I...”“Tiffany, I’ve helped you once and presented you with loads of opportunities. So ask yourself, what have you done?”It sounded like he was questioning her.Tiffany bit her lip. “I... I didn’t do it on purpose. It’s just that I’ve run out of ideas. The “24 Hours in an Inn” variety show’s team replaced me without even providing me with an explanation. That’s why I—”He interrupted her and asked, “Don’t you know the relationship between Mr. Tanner Hannigan and the legendary Mr. N
“Don’t worry. More opportunities will definitely present themselves in the future.”Daisie turned to look at Shannon. “Then please watch over James more for me.”James clicked his tongue. “What do you mean by that? I’m no 3-year-old kid. Do I look like someone who can’t take care of myself?”Shannon laughed. “Okay, I’ll take good care of this brat and save Charlie from loads of worrying news.”Daisie and Nollace got in the car and left the crew.On the way, Daisie leaned on the back of the seat. “I thought Tiffany would expose Zephir in order to protect herself, but I didn’t expect...”‘Not only did Tiffany disappear from the Internet, but she also chose to remain silent.’Nollace massaged her shoulders for her. “Perhaps she chose to be silent because she knows that even though she wants to expose Zephir, she has nothing on him.”Daisie was astonished for a moment. “If everything that she told the female influencer to do to you was under his orders, wouldn’t that be something t
‘I’ve always thought that Zephir was a gentle and kind big brother who’s considerate and would put others in front of himself. But after learning of these events, I only realize just how terrifyingly paranoid and selfish he is.‘As for Lisa’s incident, he did do everything for me, but he never told me anything about it. Even if I wanted to stop being friends with Lisa, I had never considered forcing Lisa to drop out of school.‘This time around, he wanted to use Tiffany because she was turning me into a target. Although his original intention was not to hurt me but to target Nollace, his selfish behavior still hurt me indirectly, didn’t it?’Nollace took her into his arms and rested his chin on the top of her head. “The reason I didn’t go after him is that he didn’t really hurt you. That’s why I’m letting him go this time around. But if something similar happens again, I’ll surely settle the new and old scores once and for all with him.”Daisie was startled and pursed her lips. “Ar
Colton looked down at the baby in his arms. “She’s my daughter, Charm, short for Charmaine.”Titus stretched his neck forward and stretched out his hand eagerly. “Show me my great-great-granddaughter.”Titus held Charm in his arms. Charm was not asleep and was sucking on her thumb while staring at Titus with her big round eyes, not even making a single noise.“Oh my, why is this little girl still sucking on her fingers? That’s very dirty. Take it out.”Titus took Charmaine’s teeny thumb out of her mouth. She pouted for a split second before immediately bursting out crying.Titus was caught off guard and bewildered.Freyja put the spare pacifier into Charm’s mouth, and the little baby stopped crying instantly and started sucking on the pacifier.Titus looked at the brilliant eyes of the little girl, and his stone-cold heart could not help but melt.Colton walked to the couch and sat down. “Dad, Grandpa, hasn’t Waylon arrived yet?”Titus handed the child to Freyja and turned aro
“Why can’t I get worked up because of her?” Titus looked dissatisfied. “Did you hear what she just said? She doesn’t want to marry into the Goldmanns! Does she even know what she’s talking about? Wayne is an excellent man. Other women can’t even dream about laying their hands on him, and this girl is disgusted when she’s been blessed with an opportunity that other girls would fight each other to the death for?”‘This old man is just nitpicking now.’Cameron crossed her arms. “Since when did I say I’m disgusted by him? Didn’t you think that I’m too weak to support the Goldmanns as its future matriarch? Then I’ll just prove to you that you’re right.”“You—”“What about me? I’ve never been humiliated to this extent ever since I was born. You make it sound like I’m trying to curry favor with the Goldmanns. If I were to know that I’d run into you here, I wouldn’t have come.”After saying that, she turned her face away and snorted.‘No matter what, I’m the one who’s being wronged here,
“No, this is between us, so you better not get my father involved.”‘He wants to complain about me to Dad? Over my dead body!’Nicholas smiled. “Father, why are you making things difficult for the young lady?”“I’m making things hard for her? She’s the one who’s making things hard for me. She’s been embarrassing me like I’m nothing. Does my reputation in the family look like something that can be trampled on?”Titus looked upset.Cameron muttered, “My reputation is worth something too.”Titus was shocked when he heard her refute. “Look, she’s talking back at me again. What a presumptuous woman. I must talk to her father about her attitude.”Cameron’s eyes widened. “You’re quite an unreasonable geezer!”Titus nodded. “Yes, I’ve always been, and I’ll always be unreasonable. What do you plan to do about that?”Cameron took a deep breath and forced a smile. “A truly great person knows when to yield. I’ll apologize for what I’ve done; I’m sorry.”Titus turned his face away arrogan
After dinner, Waylon asked Cameron to return to Emperon first. Daisie and Nollace gave her a ride because it was on their way home. In the car, Daisie saw that Cameron had her eyes on the view outside and wasn’t speaking.She pressed her lips together and asked, “Cameron, how do you feel about my brother?”Cameron paused and looked back. “He’s fine. Why?”“Do you not like him?”“I… didn’t say that.” Cameron looked down. “Shouldn’t getting married be something that both parties agree to? I don’t want to get married yet.”She had been tricked into registering for their marriage, and now she was being rushed into having a wedding. She hadn’t really thought about it and didn’t want to get married before doing that. Daisie stopped speaking. The car stopped outside Emperon, and Cameron got out.After Cameron entered the house, Daisie leaned back in her seat. “Nolly, do you think that Sunny is being selfish for pushing Cameron and Waylon to be together?”He had never asked for Ca
Cameron bit her lip. “Which restaurant is he at?”Daisie told her the address. Cameron hung up and left after picking up her coat. Daisie hid behind the wall and looked back at Nollace. “Nolly, do you think it’s going to work?”Nollace pulled her hat down lower. “Wear it properly. Don’t let anyone see you.”Waylon quickly showed up at the restaurant but didn’t see Daisie. A woman called out to him. “Mr. Goldmann?”He frowned as he turned and saw a woman sitting next to the window. It was Minzy. Waylon walked toward her and stopped at her table. “Ms. Holland, what brings you here?”Minzy was surprised. “Didn’t you ask to meet me?”Waylon squinted. “Me?”His eyes caught someone hiding behind a wall, and he connected the dots upon recalling the text Daisie had sent him.Waylon pulled out a chair and sat across from her. “I think someone asked you over by using my name. I’m sorry about that.”Minzy looked down. “Really? Who could have done that?”He glared in the directio
