Wendy couldn't help but tease, "Oh, come on, you can't handle the idea that Suzanne might be better than you, can you? I got this painting verified by experts, and it's an authentic piece by Inkwell.

"Suzanne's an artist who makes millions for charity."

Taylor chimed in with a nod, "Yup, it's legit."

Layla's face flushed with anger, but she couldn't come up with a comeback. Suzanne felt a bit awkward about Wendy confidently stating something she wasn't entirely certain about.

On the sidelines, Nathan smirked as someone in the family was finally recognizing Suzanne's talents.

Lindsey huffed in annoyance, "Elyse is a trained artist, unlike some who paint casually and sell their art for millions."

Wendy fired back, "Even casual paintings can make millions. I wonder if your goddaughter's artwork can sell for any money."

Lindsey was left without words.

Taylor chuckled as he rolled up the artwork. "Nowadays, there are so many college students, but their qualifications aren't that imp

    Suzanne felt the pressure of the moment. Wendy strolled by Nathan and shot him a reassuring glance.Taking Suzanne by the hand, Wendy said, "Come on, Suzanne, play a birthday song for her.""I can't, Wendy," Suzanne replied in a hushed tone.Wendy whispered, "Don't worry. The piano has the song recorded. Just play it, and I'll manage the rest. You got this. Don't let Lindsey think you can't do it."Suzanne got pulled toward the piano. She cast a helpless look back at Nathan, who sat on the couch and observed quietly. He had faith in Wendy.In her three years of amnesia, Suzanne sat at the piano for the first time and found that the keys felt strangely familiar.Wendy slyly triggered the birthday song on the piano and reassured Suzanne, "Relax, there won't be any sound even if you play the piano. The music will play automatically."Sensing Wendy's trickery, Layla rose from her seat and exclaimed, "Hold on."All attention shifted to Layla as she approached Suzanne.Layla pulled

    Wendy turned around and said sarcastically to Lindsey, "Aunt Lindsey, is it so difficult to admit that Suzanne is better than your darling Elyse?""I…" Lindsey was at a loss for words.Nathan slowly stood up and went to hold Suzanne's hand. "Come on. Let's head back to our room."Suzanne felt uneasy but she still let Nathan lead her away.Wendy began arguing with Lindsey again.Layla was fuming. She went over to the couch, feeling angry, and kicked Duke. "Had your fill yet? What are you waiting for? Let's go!"Duke returned to his senses and hurriedly followed Layla out.Tobias and Cheryl shared a look of disbelief. They found it hard to believe that it was Suzanne, someone they looked down on the most, who had played the piano just now. Meanwhile, Gary was quietly talking to Florence."Who knew Suzanne would be so talented, darling! My mother really has a good eye!" Gary exclaimed.Florence nodded. "She really does. I was shocked too. Not only is Suzanne a famous artist, bu

    Suzanne saw how cautious Nathan was being and asked curiously, "Nathan, the previous DNA report was pretty credible too. Why did you still suspect that I'm not Suzanne York?"Awe and surprise filled Nathan's eyes. "A woman who doesn't know how to cook or do chores ends up being skilled in the arts, in playing piano, and even flower arrangements. "Not only that, but she's knowledgeable in chemical science and foreign languages. She also enjoys increasing her knowledge by reading books. "Someone like her may not necessarily be from a well-off family, but she definitely wouldn't be from a poor background."Suzanne thought Nathan's rationale was logical. She suddenly realized that his way of thinking was pretty different from others. Nathan would always look beneath the surface level.So many people had a stereotypical impression of Suzanne after hearing about her past. They thought of her as a sleazy, immoral woman. Yet Nathan had always been respectful to her. He never attacked

    Suzanne called her mother's number. The dial tone went on for a long time. Right before it ended, the call went through. A loud noise followed."Higher… higher… Fuck me, I've bust!"Hello? Who is this?"Suzanne felt uneasy listening to her mother's vulgar language. She said slowly, "It's Suzanne, Mom."Betty Burns' tone immediately became loving. "Oh, my darling daughter. How are you? Is that old lady doing alright?"Suzanne hadn't told her family that she had married Nathan. They thought she was still working as a caretaker at Shovale."We're all okay," Suzanne said faintly.Betty sighed long and hard. "I'm personally not doing very well here. My blood pressure and sugar are both high. My rheumatism has relapsed too, making it so difficult to sleep through the night. "That damned alcoholic of a father you have always abuses me when he comes home drunk too. Oh, Suzanne, things are so difficult for me here. "That foolish brother of yours has gone into hiding after getting a

    Nathan parked his car in the garden outside Hoffis Manor before running into the villa in a hurry.Two old folks who looked refined sat on a leather couch in the lavishly decorated living room along with their adopted son Oliver."Nathan? What are you doing here?" Zach stood up, surprised.Nathan was panting from anxiety. Still, he greeted respectfully, "Mr. Hoffis Senior, Madam Hoffis."Loretta dabbed at her eyes with a silk kerchief. "I was the one who told Nathan to come. Our granddaughter is already attempting suicide. Do you still insist on being so cruel?"Zach glared at his wife. "You keep on making a mess of things! Why did you have to bother Nathan? He has a busy work schedule. What would his wife think of this?"Loretta huffed and said angrily, "I don't care. I just want my granddaughter to live!"Zach shook with anger. "You!"Nathan was really worried. "What happened to Sally, Mr. Hoffis Senior?"Zach grunted, "She cut her wrist and bled a little. She'll survive."

    The doctors immediately ran over. They consoled Sally while saying to Nathan, "Mr. Nathan, Ms. Hoffis is really unstable right now. "It's best you don't aggravate her condition further. Try embracing her and comforting her."Nathan hesitated briefly, feeling overwhelmed as he watched Sally sob.He then hugged her. "Don't cry now, and don't do anything stupid anymore."Sally sobbed in his chest. "Did you forget, Nate? When you sent me off at the airport when I left Norvania, you told me to never forget you nor fall in love with anyone else! You told me you'd wait for me in Norvania when I returned once I was older!"You even said you'd wait for me your entire life. But now I'm back, yet you still don't want to marry me…"Nathan recalled the pain he felt when he and Sally had parted like it was just yesterday. How could he have forgotten the pain of parting with the love of his life?But now, Nathan no longer felt the same way he did all those years ago with Sally. There was no a

    Suzanne walked the two-hour journey back to Morrison Residence alone in the rain. By the time she reached her house, her entire body had grown weak.After showering, Suzanne went to sleep in bed before even drying her hair. Only sleep could stop her from thinking about Nathan.Suzanne didn't leave the room nor felt hungry for the entire day. She woke up at midnight feeling really hot and uncomfortable. Only then did she realize she was ill.Suzanne was about to give Nathan a call when she saw Nathan had sent her a text. She quickly opened the messaging app."I still love Sally," Nathan wrote.Those four words pierced Suzanne's heart like a sharp blade.Tears pooled in her eyes as she swiftly set her phone down. She turned her face upwards and wiped the tears that crept out of her eyes with her fingers.Suzanne inhaled deeply and held her breath. Yet even that inhale made pain lance through her chest, making her unable to hold back her tears.Suzanne silently gnawed on her lip,

No one besides the lab doctors had been in close contact with the blood samples.The two rushed back home right after getting the report in order to hand it personally to Suzanne.She sat down on the chair out on the balcony, a thin sweater around her shoulders. She looked pale and glum as she opened up the documents.A breeze swept across Suzanne, though her heart was warm with hope. Suzanne then took out the test report.After reading through it briefly, Suzanne slowly resealed the papers with a neutral expression. She then said softly, "Tell Mr. Morrison nothing has changed whatsoever. I'm Suzanne York, that's all. He can stop suspecting otherwise now."Cole and Gilbert were disappointed by the DNA test results. They said, "Yes, Madam."Suzanne suddenl

    Jasper became concerned as Imogen placed her hand over her heart. He asked, "Are you experiencing any chest pains? Have you consulted a doctor? I can take you for a check-up."Imogen reassured him, gently holding his arm. "Jasper, I'm fine. I'm just trying to figure out how to balance my future family and career."Jasper smiled knowingly, gently patting her head before pulling her into an embrace. He recognized her uniqueness—her drive to pursue her career and showcase her skills and talents. The thought of being a stay-at-home mother or merely a trophy wife held no appeal for her whatsoever.Holding her close, Jasper murmured, "Imogen, have you forgotten about your husband's financial prowess?"Imogen couldn't suppress a chuckle.Jasper reassured her of his commitment, "As long as you're on board, I can arrange a driver to drive you to work, an assistant to handle all your tasks, and you won't have to worry about anything. When you return home, there will be maids and me to ens

    After returning from her journey across the globe, Imogen headed straight to the hospital. During her travels, she started noticing subtle changes in her body—nausea, fatigue, and a stronger need for rest. Her hunch was confirmed when tests revealed she was pregnant.She felt a blend of anticipation and apprehension. The idea of being pregnant raised thoughts of focusing on family life and raising children. Yet, she valued her career and was steadily demonstrating her skills. She wasn't ready to give it up just yet.When Imogen arrived home and stepped through the front door, she found Gregory and Carol were there. They had just returned from their trip as well, bringing back gifts. "Hi, Mom, Dad," Imogen greeted them.Still excited about their travels, Gregory and Carol eagerly recounted their adventures to Jasper.When Jasper heard Imogen's voice, he quickly stood and walked over to her, taking her hand. "Imogen, I woke up early and didn't see you around. Where did you go?"

    Jasper thought the idea was brilliant and agreed, "Let's plan our route and leave next week."Imogen gently pushed him back, her hands on his chest. "Sure, but let me get up first. We'll map out our journey, set a schedule, and go on a trip for our wedding."Jasper took her wrists and lifted them above the pillow. "Let's discuss this tomorrow. I have some pressing matters to attend to at the moment."Imogen was about to respond when Jasper leaned in and kissed her deeply. Their lips intertwined with passion.…A week later, Imogen received another call from Yulia's lawyer, who conveyed Yulia's apologies and expressed her desire for Imogen's forgiveness. Yulia also requested Imogen to intervene with Nathan on her behalf.Imogen decided to ignore the request. She believed in the fairness of the law. It reminded her of Zoey, who had fraudulently claimed her degree and ended up in prison at Jasper's behest.As for Yulia, she had orchestrated attacks on Gregory, caused Carol to lose

    Imogen's heart raced as she slowly hugged Jasper, her voice bashful yet resolute. "Jasper, you'll always have a place in my heart."Jasper tensed slightly, his senses on high alert. He met her eyes. A glint of anticipation sparked in his gaze as he eagerly murmured, "Say it one more time. Say it—""I love you, Jasper," Imogen said gently.Jasper's eyes immediately filled with tears as he held Imogen tightly, his body shaking. Overwhelmed by emotion, he could only whisper her name into her ear. "Imogen… Imogen…""Do you love me?" Imogen asked, her voice tinged with shyness.Jasper frowned. "I do love you. Haven't you always known?""I still want to hear it," Imogen said."I love you. I love you with all my heart," Jasper declared, gazing at her with intense passion and unwavering resolve.Feeling a bit stiff from his tight hug, Imogen gently pushed him away. "I love you, too, but I must get up and go to work.""Not today," Jasper responded, scooping and carrying her back to bed

    "If it's a gift, why not accept it?" Mila whispered.Gregory quickly took the check, looking unsure of his next move.Once his money was accepted, Oakley assumed the issue was settled. He took Yulia's hand and began to leave the ward, saying, "Well, I'll leave with Yulia for now."Still feeling resentful, Yulia glanced back and shot Imogen a glare as they departed.The ward fell silent. Feeling uneasy, Gregory and Carol exchanged anxious glances."Nate, we can't go easy on them," Mila whispered.Nathan smiled knowingly. He took Mila's hand, gently caressed it, and said quietly, "Don't worry. I'll ensure our in-laws get the justice they deserve."Mila nodded, feeling reassured. Gregory and Carol, who were listening nearby, felt deeply moved and grateful.Since Gregory was injured and confined to bed, the meeting between Jasper's and Imogen's parents ended earlier than expected. After saying goodbye to their parents, Jasper and Imogen headed home. On their way home, Jasper felt

    Yulia was renowned for her boldness and strong-willed nature. Aware of Oakley's wealth, influence, and dual reputation in legal and illicit circles, she feared no one and held a contemptuous attitude toward others, including senior military figures."You need to apologize to Ms. Imogen immediately," Oakley whispered urgently.Pointing at Imogen, Yulia muttered irritably, "Her? Oh, please! If anyone owes an apology, it's her to me."Oakley wiped his forehead nervously, trembling with anxiety. Everyone's expressions around them darkened visibly. Jasper suppressed his anger; his hands clenched into fists.Before he could speak, Yulia grumbled, "Jay, you blocked me before understanding everything, and then you terminated our contract. That's just too much."Mila couldn't shake her worry for Jasper. If he couldn't manage his relationship with Yulia appropriately, it could severely impact his marriage. Concerned that he might not handle it well, Mila intervened. "Ms. Gibson, please resp

    Carol no longer believed the portrayal of wealthy women on television.Jasper took Imogen's hand, and they sat down on the couch together, feeling anxious. It was their parents' first meeting, and the hospital setting added to the tension. If things went wrong and their relationship soured, their future would look bleak.Imogen was particularly anxious. Her palms were growing clammy. Jasper pulled out a tissue and gently wiped her palms before reassuringly saying, "There's no need to be nervous. My parents are easygoing."Offering an awkward smile, Imogen teased him, whispering, "You seem more nervous than I am, don't you think?"Jasper chuckled but offered no reply. Dealing with Gregory and Carol was sure to be a bit daunting.Typically reserved around strangers, Nathan found it difficult to start a conversation at that moment. Meanwhile, Gregory and Carol felt apprehensive and cautious, worried that any misstep could upset the Morrisons and cause problems for Imogen.Sensing th

    Mila approached them with a bouquet, smiling. "Yes, we're in the right place. We've come to visit you, our in-laws."The term "in-laws" caught Gregory off guard as he lay in the bed. Despite his injuries, he quickly propped himself up, struggling to sit upright. Carol, equally surprised, cautiously accepted the gift from Nathan's outstretched hands.Jasper and Imogen took the next elevator, so they hadn't reached the ward yet.Nathan quickly set his things down and hurried over, gently placing a reassuring hand on Gregory's shoulder. "You're injured. Don't get up. Just lie down and rest.""General Morrison, I…" Gregory's voice faltered in distress.Carol's hands trembled uncontrollably as she glanced nervously at Mila, worried that Mila and Nathan had overheard her argument with Gregory.Nathan spoke in a gentle tone, "Please, don't call me General Morrison. It sounds too formal. You both are older than me. Just call me Nathan, and I'll call you two by name in return."Mila came

    In the hospital ward, Gregory had been asleep for over an hour when the nurse woke him to change his medication.After the change, Carol peeled an orange for him to eat. They shared the segments, chatting idly."Imogen really picked a good husband. Even these oranges he bought are unusually sweet," Carol said, marveling at the oranges. Gregory glanced at the orange and said, "They must be expensive.""Yes, they're sold by the piece in big supermarkets. Also, they're more expensive than beef and lamb," Carol said before eating another sweet segment.Gregory pondered for a moment. Then he curiously asked, "Someone ruined our house's floor. Do you think Jasper would help us repair it?"Carol shot him a look and replied, "Listen, don't burden Imogen with this. Don't even bring it up.""Why would it burden Imogen? With Jasper's wealth, this is nothing.""Enough," Carol snapped. "That's his business. No matter how poor we are, we shouldn't ask for what isn't ours." "You're too stu
