Gary was speechless.Allowing an enemy to do as they pleased would only cause trouble in the future, and he was afraid that his nephew, Trevor Stone, would act outside of his expectations and jeopardize his position.If he had known that Trevor would grow up to be such a ruthless man, he would have gotten rid of him back then when he got rid of his elder brother, Billy Stone. Then, both of them could reunite in hell."What are you thinking about?" Jillian uttered suddenly, jerking Gary back to his senses."I'm just thinking… You and Dad had always favored Billy since we were young. Even when he's now dead, you're favoring his son.""Aren't you ashamed to mention this?" Alas, a shade of emotion appeared on Jillian's face. "You know exactly how Billy died!"It was him; Gary caused Billy's death. He killed her eldest son, his blood brother!But now, he wasn't the least ashamed to act aggrieved in her presence.A chill washed over Jillian's heart. "Get out of here!""Mom—""I mov

Afterward, Billy was naturally selected to be nurtured as the heir of the Stone family. In the meantime, Gary lived a carefree life.However, he wanted to be the CEO of Stone Enterprise and the family heir, too. But nobody would notice him with Billy around.He had to admit that Billy was outstanding. Every time they were in the same room, Gary would feel an irresistibly oppressive air.Perhaps some were born to be leaders, but in the end, Billy still died in his hands.When they went scuba diving together, he tampered with Billy's oxygen bottle, causing Billy to drown to his death.Gary assumed he had been meticulous enough. He thought that no one would find out. Alas, he underestimated his father's astuteness.It didn't take long before Gary became the biggest suspect and was uncovered by his father.That day, he groveled on his knees, begging for forgiveness from his father. Sorrowful and furious, his father almost killed him on the spot with a whip while Jillian sat in a cor

Serena smiled softly. "I can't let you down when you have so much trust in me."Jillian placed the invoices on the table. "In the future, you don't have to report every single menial thing to me. Do things without worries."As Jillian stared at her fixedly, she seemed to have seen another person through Serena—her son, Billy.He was also as dependable and warm as her, but he had left her forever.Grief washed over Jillian's chest as she said calmly, "Go ahead and do what you think is right. Your feud with Desiree has nothing to do with me, so don't worry about anything."Sensing that Jillian seemed tired, Serena decided not to impose on her further and left after mentioning a few more things.When she was gone, Jillian sat in the living room, sorrow shrouding her eyes. She looked as though she had aged years in just minutes.Erina approached her. "Ma'am, did you have an argument with Mr. Stone?"Snorting, Jillian held a shard of irony in her eyes and said, "An argument with him

"Why would you say that?" A despicable smile played on Thomas' lips. "We can also speak about sex. During those two weeks, you begged for me every night, and I ended up so weak every day. At that time, we were—""Enough!" Candice interrupted. "Tell me, how much does it take for you to leave me alone?""I heard that the Farrows will pay you 30 million dollars as severance after the baby is born. I want half of that.""What gives?""Because I contributed to your pregnancy." Thomas folded his arms. "You know what's going to happen if you don't share the money with me. Candice, you have no other choice."He was such a greedy man. Fury rose in Candice's heart, and she lowered her eyes as she contemplated.Rather than giving him 15 million, she reckoned it would be better to spend that money on getting rid of him completely.Thomas didn't have any family, anyway. Back then, she chose him to be the sperm donor whom she could dump afterward because he was an orphan. There wouldn't be

Candice finally calmed down a little at Serena's threat. The next second, she put on a pitiful face. "He's carrying a torch for me, but my heart belongs to Justin. I didn't cheat on him. I'm pregnant with Justin's child, and he's the only man in my heart now—""Drop the act. It makes me sick." Turning around, Serena left in a hurry.As Candice stared at her from behind, the look in her eyes gradually turned sinister. Thomas paced to her side. "What's up? Does that woman have a problem with you?" Gritting her teeth, Candice answered, "If it isn't because of her, I would've been Mrs. Farrow already.""Since you hate her so much, do you need my help to make her disappear?""Really?" Light sparkled in Candice's eyes, but she quickly found it a ridiculous idea. "The mandatory sentence for murder is death. Are you willing to risk your life for me? Stop kidding me.""Did you forget what I told you?" Thomas inched in closer to her. "I'm now dealing in illegal businesses and have a w

A shriek escaped Serena's lips, but she fell into an embrace instead.Her mind went blank for a second. Slowly, her eyes fluttered open, and a familiar face was right before her.Wilson raised his brows at her. "What's the storyline today, Ms. Judd? A fairytale princess falling from the skies?""Thank you," Serena muttered."A princess usually marries the man who saves her, right?"Serena kicked her legs. "Put me down."So many people were on the street, and this situation was embarrassing for her.A renovation worker rushed out. "Ms. Judd, I'm sorry. This ladder has a broken leg, and I forgot to mention it to you.""Get it fixed before someone else falls from it.""Okay." Carrying the ladder, the renovation worker returned inside.Meanwhile, Lauren and Joseph came out to check the situation. When they saw Serena swaddled in Wilson's arms, they couldn't help the looks on their faces. Composedly, Wilson placed Serena down and looked at her. "Aren't you going to invite me ins

Wilson didn't stay after finishing lunch and left after picking up a call.Gary was already waiting for him in the VIP lounge when he returned to his company. He approached him and greeted, "Hello, Mr. Stone.""Where were you?" Gary was puzzled, seeing the dust on Wilson. Wilson casually passed his suit jacket to Sebastian and sat across from Gary. "I just went for a stroll," he said."I heard from Desiree that there's a conflict between both of you," Gary said solemnly."So, are you here to reprimand me?" A smirk hung on Wilson's lips, but his face was unreadable.Gary slowly said, "Desiree tricked you, so I understand that you're unhappy about it. But you shouldn't forget that she was injured because of you. It's not a big deal that she pretended to have amnesia.""You're right, Mr. Stone.""Desiree is upset now. You should cheer her up.""Mr. Stone, you're making things difficult for me because I'm not capable of cheering up another person."Wilson crossed his legs. "Sh
Too Late for Forgiveness Chapter 279
Rather than Wilson being indebted to the Stones, the relationship between Wilson and the Stones was an exchange of interests.After all these years, Quade Group became more stable, whereas Stone Enterprise slowly became turbulent. Wilson had helped Gary a few times afterward. So, all the favors Gary did for him in the past had been repaid a long time ago.This news took Jacob by surprise. "Is that what happened? People outside are saying that Gary saved you and kept you in the Stone residence. "While you were recovering there, you befriended Desiree. Both of you were teenage sweethearts and grew to love each other."Wilson snorted in laughter. "That's ridiculous. Do you buy it?""I do. I believe the rumors from outsiders, and even Serena bought it."Wilson froze for a second, and the smirk disappeared from his face.Seeing the deflated look on his face, Jacob gloated, "Look how this story has turned out. But Serena doesn't really believe others. After hearing all these rumors

Serena remembered now. Marcus was born out of David's second marriage.Marcus wheeled the birthday cake toward David. He stopped beside David and grinned. "Happy birthday, Dad! May you have a long and healthy life ahead of you!""Looks like you've pulled yourself together, Marcus," David praised, smiling. He'd never smiled like that when Jacob was around.David paid no mind to Jacob's darkened expression as he pulled Marcus closer and launched into introductions. "Everyone, this is Marcus. He's been majoring in finance abroad and flew home especially for my birthday today!"A few guests at the table recognized Marcus. "Goodness, it's Marcus! I haven't seen him in years! He sure looks different now.""Yes, he looks a lot like a younger Mr. David."Jacob lifted his gaze. "Dad, why didn't you tell me Marcus was coming home today?"David's smile slipped. "You should have known he was coming home, Jacob. You're the older brother, so don't go blaming me for not keeping you up to date

A loud cough suddenly sounded behind Jacob and the others. David was making his way down the stairs with Natasha's help."Mr. Smith," Wilson greeted.A shadow fell over David's face. "Wilson, I wasn't expecting you to come.""It's your birthday today, Mr. Smith. It's only right that I come over and celebrate with you out of respect, wouldn't you say?" Wilson said congenially. He snaked an arm around Serena's shoulders as he approached David. "Mr. Smith, allow me to introduce my girlfriend, Serena Judd."David made a noise of approval. "She's got a decent face and build, that much I'll say. You got lucky, Wilson.""Oh, my luck with the ladies is nothing compared to yours, Mr. Smith." Wilson grinned.Beside David, Natasha looked a little uneasy. She clutched David's arm and asked, "Would you like to sit, Mr. Smith?""Bring me to the couch so I may catch my breath."Natasha did as she was told and helped David to the couch, whereupon they sat.Jacob and Wilson sauntered to one si

Serena wished she could sew Wilson's mouth shut. He helped her put on her clothes and said, "We're going to the Smith residence tonight. It's Jacob's father's birthday."Serena considered her plans for the day. The patisserie was doing all right recently, and she had nothing urgent to take care of. As such, she agreed to be Wilson's plus-one.…Serena and Wilson arrived downstairs to find that Elsa had already prepared a meal for them. Under Elsa's curious and meaningful gaze, Serena finished her food and headed out with Wilson.They dropped by an upscale women's boutique. Serena was about to leave after picking out a dress when Wilson grabbed her wrist. "You may as well pick out a few more outfits now that we're here. With that killer figure of yours, you'll look good in anything."It was still early, so Serena decided to stay and shop a little while longer. It would have been foolish of her to decline Wilson's generous offer of new clothes. She tried on a dozen outfits, and Wils

Waking up late the next day, Serena's eyes slowly blinked open, her thoughts still hazy and unfocused. She stared at the blackout curtains that had been drawn over the window, and the memories from last night flashed through her mind.As the hand on her side gently shifted, a voice rumbled, "Are you up?"Serena hummed in response, her throat a little dry. Last night had been wild; she'd behaved nothing like her usual self. She blushed slightly at the thought.Wilson gently pinched the soft flesh of her waist and kissed her. "Lie in for a bit."With that, he lifted the blanket and got out of bed. The soft glow of the bedside lamp illuminated the room a second later, and he handed Serena a glass of water. "To quench your thirst."Wilson's tone was warm and mild, but the way his alluring eyes fixed on Serena turned his sentence into a double entendre. Diffident, she took the glass from him and had a few gulps of water.Wilson then set the glass down and began putting on his clothes.

Wilson brought Serena back to his villa.Serena was greeted by the feast on the table when she entered the door and noted her favorite dishes among the food. Wilson explained, "When I came home earlier, I told Elsa to make dinner. We'll be eating here tonight."Serena nodded. She took a seat at the table, only to see Elsa Rosenburg bustling around to tend to her needs. She served Serena soup, brought her a wine glass, and even warmly asked Serena if she could have cold drinks.Wilson narrowed his eyes from across the table. "Elsa, if you'd like to take a look at my girlfriend, you may do so openly without buzzing around her like a bee."An awkward chuckle escaped Elsa. Oh, well, so much for being subtle. But could Wilson blame her? He'd only ever brought men home, and this was the first time he'd brought a woman over—and she was his girlfriend, no less!It was a rare sight for Elsa, indeed. Before this, she thought Wilson and Jacob were dating.Elsa stared at Serena for a moment,

Damian's eyes darkened. He strode over to Wilson. "Mr. Quade."Wilson appraised him from head to toe. "What is your purpose of getting close to Serena?"Damian looked baffled. "I've known Serena for years, and we've always been on good terms. What do you mean by that question, Mr. Quade?""The next time you act dumb and naïve, try to be more convincing. Who are you trying to fool when you can't even keep the scheming look out of your eyes?" Wilson drawled.Damian froze, then flashed Wilson a smile. "I don't know what you're talking about, Mr. Quade. Serena may be your girlfriend, but she has the freedom to be friends with whomever she wants."Wilson took a drag of his cigarette. "You sabotaged the security camera at Serena's place previously, didn't you?"Damian's smile vanished.Contempt gleamed in Wilson's narrowed eyes as he added, "Stay in line if you don't want Serena to find out just how despicable you are. I don't want to see you anywhere near Serena after this."With a

Wilson leaned into his seat and waved at Jillian through the screen as he said, "How is that you look younger since the last time we met, Madam Gallagher? And you look so fabulous and festive in that jacket, too. How will anyone tell you and an 18-year-old young woman apart?""You and your nonsense." Jillian laughed at the compliments. She gave him a meaningful look. "Do you know who got me this jacket?""Your old sweetheart?""Piss off!" Jillian snapped. "Serena got me the jacket."Surprise flickered in Wilson's eyes. He chuckled and said, "My mistake. So, it was my sweetheart who got you the jacket. How nice and generous of her; she is far better than your granddaughter. Did you reward her?""Reward her all you like when you get home." Jillian held up her phone and scoffed. "You should know you're lucky to have tricked a lovely young lady like her into falling for you."Trevor was confused. "Wait, are you familiar with Serena, too?""Yes. Our paths crossed somehow, and we beca

"Did you come to talk to me about the shop?" Jillian waved her hand dismissively. "I already told you, you get to call the shots when it comes to the patisserie. You don't have to report back to me on every little thing. Just give me my share of the profits every year."Serena said warmly, "I didn't come to talk to you about work. I just wanted to see you."Jillian went still. "What's there to see? I'm just a little old lady, and we aren't even close.""You did me a huge favor, Madam Gallagher. Visiting you is part for the course." Serena produced the gift bag and said, "I went shopping today and saw this. I thought it'd suit you and took the liberty of getting it for you. Try it on."Jillian glanced at the item in the gift bag. The style and color were to her liking, indeed. "I appreciate the gift. Leave it there.""Perhaps you should try it on first," Serena suggested, taking out the jacket and holding it up. She gently tugged on Jillian's arm and prompted, "Come on, Madam Galla

Jenna narrowed her eyes at Willow. "Your last name is Quade? What's your relationship with Wilson Quade?""He's my older cousin," Willow answered.Jenna's expression turned stormy when she heard this. She despised the Quade family.At that moment, Serena returned with the retail assistant. She had paid for Jillian's present and was ready to leave when Willow clutched her arm. "Help me pick something out."Serena nodded and began looking around the boutique with Willow.Jenna stared daggers at the two young ladies, her mood growing fouler by the second. She said scathingly, "They say birds of a feather flock together. I bet Willow is just as bad as Serena. Did you smell the smoke on her when she walked past us earlier? She must have been smoking outside before she entered the boutique!"Kelly looked offended. "Smoking doesn't mean anything. I was a smoker when I was young, too." She used to be a photographer and picked up smoking due to the stressful nature of her job. She only qu
