Gabriel's gaze at Jane was calm and emotionless.Jane's heart clenched, and in a burst of anger, she hurled the remote control at him."Gabriel, I told you, I won't agree to a divorce! Forget it!" she shouted, her voice rising.Dodging the remote with ease, Gabriel smirked and spoke slowly, enunciating each word. "Jane, whether we get divorced or not was never up to you."He had tolerated her behavior for the sake of their child in the past, but recently, she had become increasingly irritable and aggressive due to the company. He was no longer willing to pretend."You think you have the final say?" Jane sneered, her face twisted with fury. "Gabriel, you have no power or influence. Without my approval, you're dreaming if you think you can leave."Gabriel raised an eyebrow and replied, "Don't worry. Within a week, you'll be the one agreeing to the divorce. And if you don't want Wilhelm, I'll take him with me."With that, he turned and walked toward the door."Gabriel! Stop right

Jane's eyes flickered with indifference as she said, "If he didn't constantly cause trouble and make me angry, I wouldn't need to hit him. And since you care so much about him, why haven't you come home these past few days?"Gabriel's face clouded with displeasure."I stayed away because I didn't want to see you," he replied coldly. "And I've told you before—if you don't want him, I'll take him.""I'll never let you take him!" Jane hissed.Her face twisted with rage, her eyes burning with hatred as she leered at Gabriel. She resented him.If it weren't for him, she wouldn't be so isolated, with no one to rely on. She had chosen him out of love, yet instead of gratitude, he had the audacity to demand a divorce when she needed him most.If he wouldn't let her have peace, she wouldn't let him have it either.Gabriel looked at Jane, now consumed by hysteria, and felt only disgust. "Jane, I will take Wilhelm. I won't leave him here to suffer your abuse."Gabriel didn't hold much a

Jane's expression changed as she angrily asked, "Do you really think I'd stoop that low?""You've already beaten our son to the point of bruises just to get me back here. What wouldn't you do?" Gabriel retorted."You!" Jane gritted her teeth and scoffed. "Fine. If that's what you think, then believe it. But I won't agree to the divorce. Get over it."Gabriel repeated, "I told you, you'll agree soon enough."With that, he turned and walked out."Stop right there!" Jane rushed forward to block him, but her phone suddenly rang.She glanced at the screen and saw it was Pedro. Her expression changed.After a moment of hesitation, she answered. "Grandpa, what— What?! I'll come right away!"Hanging up, she turned pale, her hand trembling as it gripped the phone.Jane took a deep breath to steady herself and hurried upstairs to change before rushing to the Wilkie residence.The moment Jane entered Pedro's study, a slap landed across her face.The impact left her stunned. She only re

Jane felt as though she had been struck by a heavy blow, standing frozen in place.For the past few days, she had remained in the villa, hearing nothing from Pedro or anyone at the company.She had been clinging to the faint hope that there was still a chance to salvage the situation. But now, with the fallout from the Starlite project, it was clear—she was finished.Seeing her motionless, Pedro roared, "Why are you still standing there? Get back and prepare! Let me make one thing clear: if you screw up the press conference later, you're out of this family. You'll cease to exist in the Wilkies!""Grandpa..." Jane tried to speak.Theo sneered. "Jane, I suggest you get ready for the press conference. Oh, and by the way, Damon will be attending. If he's not satisfied with your apology, you might find yourself back in a holding cell.""What did you say? Damon is coming?" Jane repeated.The shock on her face twisted her features into something almost grotesque."That's right," Theo

Pedro's irritated voice crackled through Jane's earpiece. "What are you waiting for? Start apologizing!"Jane drew a deep breath before speaking into the microphone. "Ladies and gentlemen, members of the press, good evening. I am here tonight to address the recent events surrounding the bidding process for the Mosaic Date Mall."First, I want to extend my sincerest apologies to Prospectus Technology's CEO, Mr. Damon Sumner."For the sake of my company's interests, I sabotaged Prospectus Technology, preventing their team from competing. Their months of hard work were wasted because of my actions."I take full responsibility and am willing to compensate Prospectus Technology for all their losses. I sincerely hope Mr. Sumner can forgive me."Second, I must clarify that my actions during the bidding process were entirely my own and had no connection to the Wilkie Group."Finally, after this press conference, I will resign from my position as the Wilkie Group's general manager and wil

Damon glanced at Jane but remained silent.The room fell into an oppressive silence, the air thick with tension.Jane kept her head lowered, waiting for Damon to speak.When he didn't, she finally lifted her gaze and said, "Mr. Sumner... I truly apologize. I was blinded by greed. For the damage I caused to Prospectus Technology, I'm willing to provide full compensation. Please, I beg you to forgive me. Please give the Wilkie Group another chance."Pedro quickly interjected, "Mr. Sumner, Jane has made a grave mistake, and I take full responsibility for failing to guide her properly. I promise to discipline her moving forward. She won't repeat this kind of error. Could you find it in your heart to let this matter rest?"Damon glanced at Pedro, his expression unreadable as he responded. "Since you've said as much, we'll let this go. But I warn you—if this happens again, there will be no leniency."Pedro nodded eagerly. "Of course, Mr. Sumner! I assure you, there won't be another inc

Pedro turned to leave, but Jane hurried to block his way. "Grandpa, are you really cutting me off like this?"Any guilt she had felt earlier evaporated, replaced by bitterness.Pedro glanced at her impassively. "Think what you want. I have nothing more to say."He stepped past her, his retreating figure as cold as his words.Jane stared after him, a glint of malice in her eyes. If he wanted to force her hand, she'd have no choice but to strike back.Taking a deep breath, she followed him out of the venue.…That night, Jane returned home but didn't see Wilhelm.Frowning, she turned to Wendy and asked, "Where's Wilhelm?""He's already asleep, Ms. Wilkie," Wendy replied cautiously. "If it's not urgent, maybe it can wait until morning..."Jane waved dismissively. "Fine. You can go."Wendy had assumed Jane intended to wake Wilhelm, so she sighed in relief. She hesitated before asking, "Have you eaten dinner? The kitchen kept some food warm—""I'm not hungry. Just leave me alone

Pedro slammed the table in frustration. "Everything he has comes from the Wilkies! What right does he have to be angry? A grown man relying on his wife to live—what a disgrace if word gets out!"Seeing Pedro's reaction was exactly what she had expected, Jane quickly added, "Grandpa, I need to discuss the divorce with him first. Once that's settled, I can leave the country.""What's there to discuss? Call him right now and tell him to come over!" Pedro snapped.Jane's expression faltered as she replied, "He moved out a few days ago. Even if I call, he probably won't answer...""Call him!" Pedro insisted.She sighed in defeat, pulled out her phone, and dialed Gabriel's number. She tried several times, but he didn't pick up.Setting the phone down, she looked at Pedro. "Grandpa, he's ignoring my calls.""I'll have someone track him down and drag him here," Pedro growled.Seeing that Pedro was about to take action, Jane quickly intervened, "Grandpa, please don't get involved.

"That's more like it," Valarie chirped.Nyla couldn't help but say, "Valarie, stop bullying Brandon all the time."Brandon turned to her and sighed dramatically. "Aunt Nyla, since you mentioned it, I have to say something. You have no idea what I've been through these past six months, I— Ouch!"Before he could finish, Valarie pinched his waist. "What was that? Tell me, Brandon. Have you been unhappy these past six months?""N-No... I've been very happy..." Brandon winced."Have I bullied you then?" Valarie pressed."No..." Brandon murmured.Valarie huffed. "If not, then keep your mouth shut, or Nyla will really think I mistreat you." Brandon gave her a pitiful look, lowering his head like a scolded puppy.Before they married, Valarie had been gentle and beautiful in his eyes. But after marriage, he realized how wrong he had been.Gentle and beautiful? All an illusion.If he stayed out drinking and came home late, he'd have to choose between sleeping on the couch or outside.

Taking Mia to work was exhausting, but every time she smiled at Damon, it made everything worth it."She'll be fine. Didn't you just say she loves us both equally? She'll cry for a bit, but if you stop taking her to the office, she'll get used to being at home," Nyla reasoned.Seeing Nyla's determination, Damon finally relented. "Alright, we'll try it tomorrow. But if she cries too much, you'll have to take her to the office.""Deal!" Nyla said....After getting ready for work the next morning, Damon kissed Mia on the cheek and headed for the door.As soon as he changed his shoes at the entrance, she reached her little arms toward him, asking to be held. She had grown so accustomed to going to the office with him every day that it had become a reflex.Damon glanced at Nyla. "Nyla, maybe today we should—"Nyla interrupted, "Nope. You go to work. And if you're free for lunch, don't bother coming home. If you need to work late, no rush to come back either."Damon chuckled. "You'

"Brandon, from now on, I'm entrusting Valarie to you," Jonathan said. "She's been spoiled by us and can be a little willful at times. I hope you'll be patient with her in your marriage, and I wish you both a lifetime of happiness together."Brandon held Valarie's hand tightly, his expression solemn. "Dad, don't worry. I'll cherish her with all my heart."Jonathan nodded, stepping down from the stage. He discreetly wiped away his tears.After exchanging vows and rings, Valarie and Brandon sealed their love with a kiss, surrounded by cheers and applause.…On the way home from the wedding, Nyla glanced at Damon. "I saw Mr. Weir wipe his tears so many times today. When Bunny gets married, you'll definitely be just like him, sneaking off somewhere to cry."Damon's grip on the steering wheel tightened slightly, his gaze sharpening. "No one will ever be good enough for my daughter. If she never gets married, we'll take care of her for the rest of our lives."Nyla raised an eyebrow and

"Of course! When's the wedding?" Nyla asked.Valarie shook her head. "We haven't decided yet. He'll come to my house in a few days to discuss it with my parents."Nyla raised an eyebrow. "You're about to get really busy. Planning a wedding alone will take a lot of work.""Yeah, I'm already getting a headache just thinking about it," Valarie replied....For the next few months, Valarie was completely consumed by wedding preparations and work, barely having time to catch her breath.The wedding was set for August 8th, leaving them with less than six months to finalize everything.Valarie even traveled abroad several times to meet with designers and ensure her wedding dress was exactly what she wanted.Beyond the dress, she and Brandon spent hours discussing every detail—from the venue to the wedding favors and bouquet choices....After months of nonstop planning, the big day finally arrived.Valarie was already up, getting her hair and makeup done at 2:00 a.m.By the time N

Valarie looked up and saw the approaching glow.When the figure finally stopped in front of her, she realized it was Brandon.Frowning, she asked, "Where did you go? I waited so long for you. And what are you hiding behind your back?"Brandon flipped his phone face-down on the table, revealing the flowers he had hidden. Then he dropped to one knee."Valarie, I had planned a perfect proposal for you, but when you asked earlier about the meaning of wearing a wedding dress, I knew I couldn't wait any longer."Before I met you, my life revolved solely around work. I never paused for anyone—I never cared whether the sun was rising or setting, or if the moon was full or waning. But everything changed after I met you."I began cherishing the thought of greeting you every morning, sharing meals with you, and standing by your side for life."Valarie, I want every morning to begin with us waking up together, and every night to end with us holding each other as we fall asleep."Finally, B

Of course, every time they visited Valarie's home, Phoebe would subtly—or sometimes not so subtly—hint that they should get married.Brandon had always assumed Valarie wasn't interested in marriage since she never responded to those hints. He hadn't considered proposing.But today, seeing her so excited about picking out baby clothes made him start to imagine a future with her—building a family, raising a child.That thought filled his heart with warmth.After more than three hours of shopping, they finally left the mall, their arms full of bags.Once they loaded everything into the car, Valarie turned to Brandon. "I'm starving. Let's grab something to eat."Brandon nodded. "Sure. What are you in the mood for?""I'm not picky. Is there anything good around here? I don't feel like going too far," she replied.Brandon paused, then said, "There's a place with ethnic cuisine nearby. I went there once for a business meeting—it was pretty authentic. Want to give it a try?""Sounds g

Nyla was silent for a moment before nodding. "Alright. If you ever need Damon to help figure out Brandon's thoughts, just let me know.""I will. Don't worry about us, though. You just gave birth. Your main priority should be resting," Valarie said."Okay," Nyla replied.Valarie lingered in the bedroom for a while, but when she saw Nyla looking tired, she stood up and left.Downstairs, only Brandon was in the living room.Valarie walked over to him and asked, "Where's Damon?""He had something to take care of for work, so he went to the study. How's Aunt Nyla?" Brandon asked."She seems to be doing well, and the baby is adorable. Oh, right, I forgot to ask what the baby's name is. I only know her nickname is Bunny," Valarie said.Just thinking about Mia Sumner's cute little face made Valarie smile. She was already looking forward to the day the baby would call her godmother.A flicker of something crossed Brandon's eyes. "You really like kids, huh?""Of course! I've said befor

Once they were in the car, Nyla suddenly recalled Damon's phone call earlier. "By the way, what did Alexander want?"After a brief pause, Damon glanced at her. "He said Ms. Kinsey left you an inheritance and asked when we'd be able to go to Meristate to take care of it."Nyla pressed her lips together before replying, "Call him later and tell him to donate it or keep it for himself. I don't want it.""Alright," Damon replied.When they arrived home, Damon helped Nyla settle onto the couch, placing a pillow behind her back for support. Then, he said seriously, "Nyla, you've been through enough. Let's not have any more kids after this."During her first pregnancy with Mason, Damon hadn't been around, so he hadn't realized how difficult it was for her.Now, experiencing this pregnancy with her, every checkup and blood draw made his heart ache.Once Nyla gave birth, he planned to get a vasectomy. Two kids were enough for them.Nyla shot him a look. "This wasn't exactly planned, was

More than half an hour later, Nyla finally stirred from her nap.When she opened her eyes, she found Damon sitting by her bed, watching her. She froze for a moment, caught off guard.Rubbing her eyes, she realized he was still there and confirmed she wasn't dreaming.She slowly sat up, her voice still heavy with sleep. "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be in your study working?""I missed you, so I came to see you," Damon replied.Nyla narrowed her eyes. "You definitely have something to say if you're here all of a sudden."Damon chuckled, a little helpless. "I guess I can't fool you.""Of course not. I know you too well. Ever since I got pregnant, you've never come to see me like this in the afternoon," Nyla said."Alright. Go freshen up first, and I'll wait for you downstairs," Damon suggested."Okay," Nyla replied.After washing up, she went downstairs and sat beside Damon. "Alright, tell me. What's going on? You're acting all mysterious."Damon hesitated for a moment befo
