last update Last Updated: 2023-04-12 14:31:42
After carefully cleaning up the spilled coffee on the floor, Jolene left the master bedroom. Right as she stepped out of the door, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

She'd been the princess of the Walter family for so many years. When had she ever done such things?

She returned to the servants' quarters and called Rowena, hoping that her mother could come up with a solution for her. However, the phone rang for a long time with no answer, and her heart grew colder with each ring.

Jolene couldn't have imagined that, at that moment, Rowena was lying in the arms of an old man. He was considered old because he was about a decade older than Graham. The man was Boris Walter, Graham's first cousin once removed.

If Graham had seen this scene, he would probably be so angry that he would want to shred the man into pieces.

Boris held Rowena in his arms as he lit a cigarette, feeling satisfied.

Although Rowena was a bit older in age, she had the charm of a mature woman, and Boris even th

    When Rowena returned to Walter Castle, it was already 2 in the morning. She had just walked into the living room and was about to quietly go back to her room when the lights in the corridor were suddenly turned on.She was startled and turned around to find that the person who had turned on the lights was Jenny. Her heart raced uncontrollably faster. "Jenny, why aren't you asleep at this late hour?""You're not asleep either, and you just came back so late. What were you doing, Rowena?" Jenny smiled, and under the illumination of the lights, her eyes seemed to be glowing, making Rowena feel like she had nowhere to hide.Rowena tried to suppress the panic in her heart and said expressionlessly, "I felt sad because Jo moved out, so I went to talk to a friend.""Oh, really?" Jenny smirked with a hint of sarcasm.If it weren't for the fact that she had just received information from the person she sent to follow Rowena about her entering a hotel, she might have believed her words.Ro

    Graham would have said yes to her request without hesitation if she had said that yesterday. He would even feel glad that this daughter of his had become sensible.Everything was too late now.Graham threw the newspaper he was reading to Jolene. He said nothing and continued eating breakfast.Jolene was puzzled but still lowered her head to look at the newspaper. Her eyes widened in disbelief in the next second, and an incredulous expression overtook her features. "This...these reporters are simply spouting nonsense."The newspaper reported extensively on her moving to James' villa last night. Some speculated that they were about to marry, while others said she was shameless. There were all sorts of comments, and most of them weren't positive."Dad, I was too impulsive yesterday. I shouldn't have moved in with him so soon." Jolene apologized with her head down. She'd rarely admitted her mistakes all these years.Unfortunately, Graham was unmoved.Jolene was helpless, so she coul

    Jenny put down her cutlery and looked at Jolene with a sympathetic look. "Have you ever considered the possibility that he abhors you?""No! That's impossible! It must be you!" Jolene refused to admit it.Jenny shook her head, thinking that Jolene was hopeless, and got up to leave. Before she left, she reminded Jolene, "Remember to go back early. If you go back late and upset James, you won't be able to return to Walter Castle, and you won't be able to stay with the Windsors as well."With that, Jenny left, ignoring Jolene's angry shouts behind her.Jolene was furious and helpless. She cursed Jenny vehemently in the dining room, but what good would that do? Anyone who saw her behaving like that wouldn't think much of her. Even Rowena, who was sitting beside her, looked indifferent.Rowena dismissed the servants and let Jolene curse until she was out of breath before asking, "Do you feel better now?"Jolene finally stopped. She clenched her jaw and remained silent."Perhaps I've

  • To Be Yours Again   Chapter 701 A Decision

    After Jolene and James got engaged, Graham and James no longer needed to keep their interactions secret or discreet. There were often rumors of a collaboration between the two families, but nothing concrete had materialized from it yet, much to the curiosity of the people in Bardoff City. They were sure the two families were working together but didn't know what they were up to.Jenny didn't bother herself with these matters as she couldn't intervene with them dealing with the Glasses. She continued to work as a junior employee in the sales department every day. Perhaps because Jolene and James were engaged, everyone assumed that Jenny would be the obvious choice to inherit the Walter family business. Hence, people in the company were more polite to her, and hardly anyone dared to oppose her.Even when she went out to negotiate with clients, her success rate was almost ninety percent, making her the top performer in the entire department in no time. Jenny felt somewhat helpless about

    "What's wrong?" Jenny asked, puzzled.Graham retracted his gaze and looked at her. "James is a good person, but he is engaged to Jolene. I don't want you having anything to do with him."He thought favorably of James, and he still did. But this didn't mean that he could tolerate him being close to both of his daughters, especially Jenny.Jenny was stunned. She instantly understood what Graham meant and was speechless. "You're overthinking things. He's my senior. He's just like family to me. Can't I have a meal with family?""I know you don't mean it that way, Jenny, but does James feel the same way? Can you guarantee that people will keep their mouths shut?" Graham was grim. He was truly trying to act in Jenny's best interests.Jenny was exasperated. She looked at her father, saying, "I don't care what people think of me as long as I have a clear conscience."Seeing that he was unable to convince Jenny, Graham shook his head. "Just don't grow too close with him. Forget the outsid

    Jenny was speechless. She had walked in there expecting to talk about her resignation, but here they were, discussing future husbands.She looked at the documents on the table. Graham even opened the folders for her neatly, so she would see their photographs on the covers. They were indeed young and handsome, but she had no intention of finding a husband."You're thinking too much." She smiled dryly, not knowing what to say.Graham, on the other hand, didn't think so. He explained, "Since you're uninterested in managing the company, these are the people I've specifically chosen to nurture. Wouldn't it be perfect if you married one of them?"The corners of Jenny's lips twitched. She couldn't smile at all. "Pretty much.""I know you're not too happy about it, but this is just a suggestion. If no one here catches your eye, you can bring over one you like, and I'll nurture him step by step. I'll let him take over the company." Although Graham trusted these men, they were not part of h

    Walking out of Graham's office, Jenny didn't go down immediately to get James. Instead, she went to the sales department to find Adrian Caiman. She suggested dividing her performance bonus for the month with everyone in the department."You're joking, aren't you, Jenny?" Adrian could not believe what Jenny said.Jenny's performance that month had broken their records. With such a huge bonus, even if it were divided, everyone would get a significant amount.Jenny smiled, shaking her head. "Of course I'm not. I won't be coming to the office anymore starting tomorrow. Thank you for looking after me all these days."Adrian was stunned but came back to his senses quickly. "You're too generous. I didn't do much. You're very capable."He knew very well that Jenny was destined to be the heir of Walter Inc. This was the future president he was talking to. He couldn't anger her. However, he could not suck up to her. After all, he had worked with her for a while and understood her personalit

    James and Jenny sat in a private booth in the restaurant.Jenny wanted to ask him how he was doing, but she didn't know how to phrase it. She was afraid that she'd make him upset."I've been so busy lately that I haven't had the time to catch up with you. How have you been?" James asked. He had a smile on his face as if things were just like before.Jenny felt even more worried seeing him like this. "I'm doing pretty well. What about you?""Me?" James raised his eyebrows and slowly poured her a cup of coffee. "I'm fine."In fact, with someone to yell at every day he got home, he felt even better than before.Jenny wanted to ask him about his situation with Jolene, but she knew it would upset him if she did. She had to keep it to herself.Not long after, the waiter served them their food."You've lost weight. Have things been hectic lately at Walter Inc?" James asked, handing her a plate of mashed potatoes.Jenny shook her head. "Not at all. On the contrary, I think I gained we

    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
