As he was deep in thought, the door to the meeting room opened. He looked over instinctively.

Gilbert, who was in a navy suit, walked into the meeting room. His gaze was calm, and he looked at Octavius emotionlessly. He sat on the couch, then finally glared at him. "What are you here for?" he said in an unpleasant tone. That was to be expected. He didn't feel very warmly toward the Bradshaws.

Octavius snapped back to reality. He looked at the total stranger of a son before him, suddenly at a loss for words. He no longer saw that child on Gilbert's face. He was a stranger, an intimidating one at that.

He took a deep breath and said, "I…You know that I am your father, don't you?"

If he could investigate Gilbert, Gilbert could investigate him, too.

Gilbert didn't answer. He asked, "I don't care who you are. Why are you here?"

Octavius paled, not expecting Gilbert to be this rude. "Son, you truly wandered off and got lost back then. Your mother and I have tried to find you all these

    Bradshaw Operations?Gilbert seemed to be considering Octavius' words. Octavius' eyes lit up, feeling that he had piqued Gilbert's interest."Besides the property that everyone thinks we have, we have a lot of property hidden under the radar. If we were to compare, the Bradshaws would not be worse off than the Fausts," Octavius said.Gilbert smiled lightly. He looked at Octavius in amusement. "You seem very interested in Bradshaw's property."Octavius went quiet. Frankly speaking, why would he willingly marry into that family if it weren't for their property? Despite his courteousness to Esther all these years, he was still not respected in the Bradshaw family. Their inheritance had nothing to do with him.Outsiders thought he was living the good life, but Octavius knew he was no more than a rug to the Bradshaws.He knew he had no hope, but he didn't want to give up. He would be happy to see Bradshaw Operations falling into Gilbert's hands in the end. No matter what, Gilbert was

    Octavius said nothing. He knew Gilbert thoroughly researched his standing in the Bradshaw family. He didn't have to worry about anything in that family, but he had not married into their family to simply not be worried."Are you sure that you can take control of the Bradshaws?" Octavius was moved, but he doubted Gilbert's abilities.Gilbert smiled. Things seemed to be going smoother than he expected. He hadn't expected Octavius to go against the Bradshaws so easily. He thought he would have to work to convince him.The corners of his lips curled upward. "I can't do it alone, but I have the Walters and the Fausts backing me up. With their combined forces, don't you think I'd be able to do it?""If you count them in, you'd be able to. But are you sure they wouldn't plunder the Bradshaws for themselves once everything is settled?" Octavius had heard that Gilbert was close with Jenny, but no one could be trusted in the face of profit.Gilbert sneered, not taking him to heart. "This is

    When Octavius returned to the Bradshaws, Esther was already sitting in the living room. Eli was sitting there, too, and was looking at his phone."Back already?" Esther glanced at him. "What did Gilbert say?"At the mention of Gilbert, Eli took his gaze away from his phone and looked at Octavius. He had no idea that Octavius had gone to see Gilbert. Did he really want Gilbert to come back so much?Eli couldn't understand why they were still so hung up on Gilbert, even though he was the one who grew up with them. They even wanted to hand the family over to Gilbert. Was Eli that useless in their eyes?Hatred brewed in his heart, and he couldn't vent it on Esther and Octavius. He could only direct it toward Gilbert."He refused." Octavius went to the chair and sat, sighing.Esther frowned, displeasure written on her face. "He has the nerve! Does he think Hawthorn Inc is that incredible? He doesn't know where he stands!" A plan was already forming in her head. Since Gilbert was so at

    As he watched Eli leave, Octavius' gaze dimmed, bearing a hint of disdain. Even his son refused to respect him.If Gilbert could ruin the Bradshaws, it would be a good thing for Octavius.…Gilbert knew nothing about what was happening in the Bradshaws. He was already in his villa. It wasn't very late when he returned, but Caleb was already asleep. He didn't go to bother him. At first, he thought Marigold had already fallen asleep. But then, when he passed her room, her door was ajar, and her lights were on. She was obviously still not asleep.He knocked.Marigold got up. She was surprised to see Gilbert at the door. He would never go to see her after work."You're back. Are you hungry?" Marigold asked."I had dinner," Gilbert answered, reminding her of what had happened.Marigold smiled lightly and nodded. "I know. But you've worked for so long after dinner. You might be hungry again.""I'm not a glutton," Gilbert said, speechless. He didn't have such a huge appetite."Nothi

    "I have no one else to go with," Gilbert said honestly. However, he had his reasons that he couldn't say out loud.Unfortunately, Marigold's expression shifted when she heard that. So he was only choosing her because he had no other woman to go with. She thought she was a fool. What was she so excited for, thinking that Gilbert had fallen for her?What a joke.Seeing that she was not responding, Gilbert thought she was refusing to go. He grew concerned. "Will you come?"Marigold looked up at him. Although she was angry, she couldn't say no to him in the face of his request. She pouted and said after a pause, "Yes, but you can't blame me if I embarrass you."It had been a long time since she went to parties like these.She used to love going to them, but after her pregnancy and her sickness, she thought many things through and felt that all these things were unnecessary. Hence, she didn't attend them anymore.If she went again, this time with Gilbert, she would be nervous."Don'

    Greg placed all the selected designs and details before him in his office early in the morning."These are the dresses I have prepared, Mr. Hawthorn. However, I'm not sure which one Miss Wagner would like," Greg said. In truth, he thought they were all very pretty, and they were all dresses that he would never be able to afford in his lifetime. Even looking at them would make him drool.Gilbert went through them and spent half his day deciding. In the end, he couldn't decide because he didn't know which one Marigold liked. Finally, he sent the pictures to Marigold so she could choose from them.Very quickly, he received her message. Surprisingly, she'd picked a black one."Get this." Although Gilbert thought the red one looked better, he supported Marigold's decision and chose the black one.The assistant took the documents, hesitating. "Mr. Hawthorn, this dress is from one of the most luxurious brands. It's very expensive."He wasn't being nosy. This dress was just not for casua

    At six in the evening, Gilbert's car arrived at the entrance of the villa. When he went in, the stylists had just let Marigold change into the dress. They were making their final adjustments.Gilbert looked at the woman in black standing in the middle of the living room, his eyes wavering. Although he refused to admit it, he was moved."Mr. Hawthorn." Someone saw him and greeted him. Everyone else looked his way, including Marigold.The corners of Marigold's lips curved. "How do I look?""Great." Gilbert had to admit that she was beautiful.Marigold was surprised to hear his compliment. She thought he would simply refuse to answer.The stylists kept on fussing around with her hair. Gilbert went behind her. From the mirror, he could see Marigold clearly. There was a youthful vigor to her beauty that made people want to fawn over her.His gaze trailed downward and stopped at her bare neck. "Her neck is too bare.""Don't worry, Mr. Hawthorn. We have prepared a necklace," a stylist

    Before she managed to touch the necklace, Gilbert grabbed her hand and said, "Just leave it on. It looks very good on you.""But…""Since you're going to be my date for the party, just do as I say, alright?" Gilbert looked at her, and his tone was unusually gentle.Marigold regained her senses. She thought he made sense after giving it a thought. It was probably because Gilbert didn't want her to embarrass him at the party that he chose such a huge diamond necklace. At the thought of that, it seemed like this logic made sense. She no longer had the intention to take it off anymore. She wanted to shake Gilbert's hand off but realized she could not succeed. "I'm not going to take it down. Let go of me."Upon hearing that, Gilbert let go of her hand with slight embarrassment. After a brief moment of awkwardness, he said, "Let's go. It's almost time for us to leave.""Alright." Marigold's cheeks were flushed. She nodded and followed Gilbert. Her dress was a little long, so she could

    That afternoon, Gilbert called off his engagement to the Silveras. He did not pick up a single one of Lottie's calls. When he found Marigold, she was taking Caleb on a stroll around the neighborhood. It had been a while since she'd taken notice of anything related to Gilbert. She suddenly felt how nice it was to have her mental energy spent somewhere else, no longer being so hung up on that man. However, when Gilbert appeared before her, her heartbeat quickened. "Why are you here?" Marigold said, snapping out of her reverie. Gilbert smiled lightly. Without saying much else, he pulled her into an embrace. "Didn't you say that I could come to see you once everything is settled?" Marigold was stunned. She was in disbelief. "So, what you're saying is it's all over?" "Didn't you read the news?" Gilbert was speechless. "No. I didn't want to care." Every time she saw anything about Gilbert and Lottie, she felt miserable. She'd rather save herself the pain and block out anything

    In the end, Esther went with Gilbert's suggestion. However, she did not trade Bradshaw Operation's projects with Jenny. She went with the Silveras. For one, she did not trust the Walters. On the other hand, the Silveras and the Bradshaws were going to be united through marriage. They deserved to be trusted more. Gilbert didn't mind. After all, if anything happened to the Bradshaws, the Silveras would not help. With those projects in hand, they would only fall further into debt. The plan was going smoothly. Gilbert had not gone to see Marigold once. He knew that before subduing the Bradshaws, going to visit Marigold would only endanger her. After all, Marigold was safe. Nothing had happened, and Caleb was growing up healthily. One month later, things began to feel off in Bradshaw Operations. After Faust Group received their money, they did not start the project. No one knew what they were doing. Esther was feeling antsy. She prodded Gilbert to ask if there was anything wro

    That very afternoon, Esther and Gilbert rushed to Faust Group to sign the deal. Gilbert said he was worried that Alec would change his mind, so he urged Esther to sign it. Only through a written contract would they be able to relax. Esther thought it made sense and agreed to rush to Faust Group with Gilbert.In the meeting room, Alec looked at the two people before him, expressionless. "You have a good son, Mrs. Bradshaw." "I'm flattered. My son had Bradshaw Operations' interests at heart. He'll inevitably be a little insensitive. Please don't hold that against him, Mr. Faust." Esther smiled. She didn't mind Alec's sarcasm because it didn't matter. As long as Bradshaw Operations could truly benefit from this, she didn't care how much Alec mocked her. Alec smiled coldly and slid the contract over to her. "You may flip through it." Esther took it and read through it seriously.If this project succeeded, they would reap massive rewards. However, it required a massive upfront inv

    In the following days, Gilbert headed over to Faust Group infrequently during the day. To others, he was there to talk business with Alec. But in reality, it was a different scenario altogether. Vincent brought Gilbert a cup of coffee in Alec's office. Because of all the times he'd been there, Vincent knew what he wanted without having to ask. Alec had a cup of coffee placed before him, too. Everyone thought that Gilbert was trying to convince Alec to give him one of the shares, which was why he always came there, but that was not the case. The collaboration was a set-up. As long as the Bradshaws signed the deal on the project, they would not escape unscathed. Gilbert had planned this for a long time just to trick the Bradshaws into accepting the project. However, the scheme had to be executed perfectly. Since Gilbert buttered up the project in front of the Bradshaws, Alec had to feign disinterest in his collaboration. Otherwise, it would seem suspicious if Alec, a smart ma

    After the engagement party, Gilbert officially had a stronghold in Bradshaw operations. Because he was already very capable, he had a lot of supporters. No one challenged him in the company. Most of them sucked up to him because they knew that if things went well, he would be the heir of the company.Gilbert didn't really care about that. He didn't even want to be there for long. He knocked on Esther's door and walked into her office."Come, sit." Esther was all smiles when she saw him. It was more sincere than before.She used to doubt him a lot, but now, although she still had her reservations, she mostly believed in him. In her eyes, no one would reject the chance to inherit Bradshaw Operations. This was basically manna from Heaven. Gilbert just didn't know it back then, and now he did. Gilbert sat down in front of Esther and began reporting the information he had gathered, as well as his thoughts on Bradshaw Operations and his plans for the future.When he presented the inf

    Gilbert and Lottie's engagement party was held at Bardoff Grand Hotel on Saturday.A ton of people showed up to their engagement party. After all, the Bradshaws and the Silveras were pretty big names in Bardoff City, and plenty of the other families knew of their true wealth. They all came to attend the party. Jenny and Alec had both received invites. Jenny was Gilbert's sister, and on top of that, they represented the Walters and the Fausts. It was to be expected. At first, Jenny didn't want to go. The party held no meaning to it. It was just a show put on for Esther. It would be a complete waste of her time. However, she was talked into it by Alec. It would be weird if she didn't go. Zack brought Janet to the party. He found Jenny and was in a daze. "Wasn't Gilbert courting Marigold? Why is he engaged to Lottie?" Jenny rolled her eyes. "What have you been doing, Zack? You're really bad at keeping up." Gilbert had been courting Lottie for a while now. If Zack paid attention

    Gilbert drove to Jenny's villa, but he was in no rush to get down. He didn't unlock the doors, either. He obviously wanted to talk to Marigold. But Marigold evidently didn't want to. "I want to take my child and leave." She was afraid. What if Gilbert and Lottie married and took her child away? She no longer believed in love. The only thing she believed in was her child. Gilbert tightened his grip when he heard that. "Marigold, the engagement is only for Esther to see. I have no feelings for Lottie." "Who knows? People change. You said you didn't have feelings for me, too." Marigold found this all very amusing. Perhaps this was fate. Gilbert wanted to keep explaining, but Marigold did not give him the chance to. "Just let me and Caleb leave. If what you say is true, you can come to find us once everything is over." And if Gilbert didn't come looking for her, the truth would unfold itself, and she would give up all hope. Gilbert understood that Marigold had already made

    Marigold was miserable throughout dinner, but she persevered till the end without being too dramatic. After dinner, they walked to the entrance of the shopping mall.Gilbert went to get the car. Lottie stood with Jenny and Marigold. Watching Gilbert leave, she turned toward Marigold. "I heard that you used to like Gilbert very much." "It's all in the past. It's not worth mentioning." Marigold didn't want to talk about it. She was afraid that Lottie would see that she still liked Gilbert. Most importantly, she was afraid that Gilbert's plan would be ruined. Lottie smiled. "That's true. The past is the past. You're such a nice person. You'll definitely be able to find someone better suited for you in the future." Marigold pursed her lips. Gilbert soon brought the car over. Lottie was about to get into the car, but before she did, she suddenly turned to Marigold and said, "Gilbert and my engagement party will be in a few days' time. If you have the time, you're more than welcom

    Everyone was shocked to hear her speak so suddenly. Lottie was stunned, and she explained, "You've misunderstood. That's not what I meant. I just think that if the child follows his father, it'll help him develop better, and you'll be less stressed." "I don't need your concern. I can raise my child alone," Marigold snorted. She did not hold back at all. Lottie looked unpleasant. Gilbert had no choice but to step in. "We'll have our own child together. And whoever likes it the most will get to keep it." Although they knew that Gilbert had meant this for Lottie to hear, Marigold found it extremely upsetting. She looked at Gilbert, and for a moment, she was unable to tell if he was being genuine. She thought of all that Gilbert had said to her last night, saying that he didn't like Lottie and had no intention of marrying her. But he looked to be truly in love. Marigold didn't think she could tell if he was faking it. "I'm sorry. I need to go to the restroom." Marigold didn't w
