The old butler sighed. "Young Master Josh, you are a wise kid. Something like this should not have fallen onto someone your age."

Josh shook his head lightly. "It's nothing. Don't let my father know about this. Also, please pass me a couple of ice packs."

'I have to make these marks fade before my father comes back.'

The old butler nodded. "Yes, Young Master Josh."

Rue locked her door. Thinking about the woman who was conversing with Edward had given her a headache.

However, if she wanted to investigate that woman, she could not ask the Bennets to do it for her.

If the Bennets knew about this, they would begin to question her value in the family again.

At this point, Rue called Ian on the phone.

The moment the call was picked up, Ian's cheerful voice greeted her, "Rue, what made you call me?"

Rue narrowed her eyes and asked in a hushed tone, "Ian, can you do me a favor?"

Ian paused. "Rue, isn’t the money enough? I can take more out of my company..."

Rue shook her

    Nathan looked askance. "But Edward, you have a family. How are you going to compete with me?" "Who says someone with a family can't compete?" Nathan paused. "Edward, you are shameless!" "We're in a fair rivalry now, so you have to tell me the woman's name, right?" Nathan huffed in reluctance. Even so, he answered Edward, "Rachel Bennet." Upon hearing Nathan's answer, Edward fell silent. All he could do was blink in a dazed stupor. 'Rachel Bennet, Rue Bennet's younger twin sister?' 'The woman wrapped up with scandal and disappeared all those years ago?' He tightened his palm. After all, he had wanted to investigate Rachel previously. However, she disappeared from the Orange Country. No matter whom he asked, Rachel's reputation had never been too good... Could she be the one he was looking for? A moment later, he regained his awareness and blurted out, "I want to work with Rachel." Nathan looked at the list of companies in his folders. "You didn't send in a mess

    Rachel sat inside Nathan's car as she pressed her palm against her forehead. 'Why did I say yes? Was it because he asked me not to reject him, or was it because he wanted to talk about the projects?' Nathan smiled at Ziggy. "What do you want to eat, kid?" Despite being extremely displeased, Ziggy gave Nathan a friendly smile. "Are you sure you want me to choose?" "Of course, I'm buying," Nathan replied good-humoredly. Ziggy raised his head. "Let's have some Indian food." Nathan smiled and nodded. "Alright, let's have that." Rachel looked at Ziggy. Ziggy was usually aversive to Indian food. However, seeing that Rachel got on Nathan's stretch limousine with Ziggy, the gossip started among the other girls again. "That child is Rachel's child, isn't he?" "He went into the president's car as well?!" "Was Rachel's promotion in the company related to the child? President Chapman paid so much attention to her, is it because that kid is hers and President Chapman's?" "It

    Rachel tilted her head. "What were you saying?" Nathan shook his head. "Oh, nothing. Let's eat. I'll send you home after dinner." Ziggy took a few perfunctory bites and set down his utensils. "I'm full, mommy, let's go home." Even then, the utensils in Rachel’s hand had yet moved because Indian food was not her favorite as well. Seeing Ziggy's and Rachel's disinterest in the food, Nathan set down his own utensils. "Alright then, let me send you home." He stood up as the waiter whispered to him. "Mr. Chapman, the total will be 650 thousand pounds." Nathan handed over his black credit card. "Mm." Ziggy nodded his head satisfactorily. He had wanted to dine here because this restaurant was high-end, which would, in turn, make the uncle pay an exorbitant amount of money! Rachel pulled out her own card and passed it to Nathan. "Nathan, this is all of my savings. I only have 50 thousand pounds in my account, but I will earn the money to pay you back." Nathan looked at Rachel

    Ziggy opened the boxes and took out all the dresses, shoes, and bags. "Wow, mommy! They're pretty!" Rachel looked at the elegant outfits in stunned silence. "Aren't these dresses from the famous brand?" Ziggy halted and shrugged. "Who knows! There must be authentic and fake ones mixed in there, who can tell?" Rachel nodded lightly. "True." "Mommy, aren't you going to meet some collaborators today? Why not change into something new and go there fashionably?" Ziggy picked out an elegant dress and a pair of low heels, then handed Rachel her bag. Rachel caressed Ziggy's face. "My baby boy is such a sweetheart." Ziggy murmured, "Mommy, I have an exam today." "Is that so? Have fun then!" Rachel rubbed her hand lightly against Ziggy's head. Ziggy's eyes sparkled with victorious confidence. "Don't worry. The top student of the Minnow Nursery School can only be me." Noticing Ziggy's confidence, Rachel nodded. "Baby, you're so confident, I have to focus to be at me best as we

    Rachel turned around to see Edward standing behind her. Her eyebrows furrowed. "I'm sorry, not you." Rachel's and Rue's faces were almost identical. It could be said that Rachel's features were even more doll-like than Rue's. Even without makeup, she was still stunningly gorgeous. For a moment, Edward stood in amazement. He did question if the woman in front of him was Rue, but no, they had a different air between them. Rue disgusted him, but Rachel's presence was comforting. The moment Rachel set her eyes on Edward, she thought of Rue and tried to turn to leave. Rushing proved to be detrimental since because of that, her heels slipped and she fell backward. Rachel bit her lower lips tightly and irreconcilably. Why was she so unlucky in front of Rue's husband?! However, the impact of hitting the ground did not come. When she opened her eyes and saw Edward's enlarged face, as well as his hands on her shoulder, all she could do was stare. Suddenly, Edward covered her wa

    Rachel's face began to heat up as two clouds of red spread on her face. An undeniable fact was that Edward was flawlessly handsome. No wonder so many women had fallen for him. She pushed against Edward in fake righteousness. "Edward Bluemel, please let go of me, I will scream!" Edward broke into a grin at the threat. "Scream away. Even if reporters and a crowd gathered here, they would only think that you're Rue and that we were having a couple spat." With that, Rachel quietened down. The Bennets knew that she had returned. If that was the case, she would not want to make a mess of the situation. If the Bennets were to hire people to target her, it would have been difficult. She was not afraid of being bullied, but she would never let her son be subjected to the same fate. "What do you want?" Rachel frowned intensely in a desperate attempt to negotiate. Edward squinted. "You're the first woman to rebuke me time after time, and the first to diss me behind my back. What

    Rachel's gaze shot sideways awkwardly. "I was just saying, 'Edward is the most handsome man in the world!' Seems like that was wrong too, what a bother!" Beep— The villa's main door opened slowly. "Password correct." At that moment, time stood still; even the air smelled of cringe-worthy embarrassment. Rachel did not dare to look at Edward's face. Instead, she wanted to destroy the password lock! 'What broken password lock is that! It's intentionally messing with me!' No matter what phrase she used or what combination she had keyed in before, they were wrong! Yet she got it correct at the most inopportune time! "Rachel, do you still have anything you’d like to say?" Rachel feigned innocence. "Edward, I didn't think you'd have installed a broken password lock on your door despite your wealth!" "That password lock? I designed it." Edward looked at a speechless Rachel. Seeing the opened door, Rachel beamed. "Edward, please get up, we'll have a nice talk and discuss

    As Rachel sat up straight, she tidied her hair and dress minimally."If you insist on limiting my professional freedom, I cannot consent to our collaboration." Edward crossed his legs, the smile on his face unfaltering. "I haven't even told you your remuneration, is it a good idea to refuse just yet?" Rachel was slightly taken aback but remained steadfast in her choice. "It’s not about the remuneration, but about the ending of my career. If you and I signed a permanent contract, my career would've stopped here." In all honesty, she just did not want to be more involved with the Bennets at this point. Edward Bluemel was Rue's husband. So to be in contact with Edward Bluemel was to be in contact with Rue, and by extension, with the Bennets. "The point of every career is to constantly climb higher, and if you signed a permanent contract with me, you would've reached the top of the fashion designing industry. How then, will your career stop there?" Edward pointed out the logic

    Ziggy kept his head lowered. If he had lifted his chin, his face that was identical to Josh's would be recognized. "Mommy, I have a stomach ache. I'm going to use the toilet." He then turned around and ran, not seeing Jane who was approaching. As a result, the two crashed into each other, and Ziggy was sent flying before he landed by Edward's side. "Are you alright?" Edward helped Ziggy up with one arm but was stunned when he saw Ziggy's face. The little boy had pink lips, pearly teeth, and looked adorable. However, the child and Josh looked exactly the same too! Ziggy stood up straight, his wise-beyond-his-years eyes reflecting a hint of seriousness. "Looks like we can't hide it anymore." "Hide? Hide what?" Rachel and Edward asked simultaneously. Josh and Ziggy shared a look before Josh took his mask off. The moment the mask was off, Rachel froze in surprise. Her eyes were wide as she looked at the twins — Ziggy and Josh. She could not seem to react. "What, wha

    Edward shook his head lightly, his eyes deepening in coldness. Since when did he catch a cold? Some ungrateful fool must be talking about him behind his back. Seeing as Josh and Edward were descending the staircase, the old butler approached them. "Master Edward, Young Master Josh, good morning." Josh nodded as he fixed his gaze on the main entrance of the house. "How is mother?" The old butler shook his head before saying, "Mistress is nowhere to be seen, I checked this morning. I didn’t see her anywhere." Josh's eyebrows raised. "Did you send someone to have a full sweep of the area?" The old butler answered. "We've looked everywhere, but we couldn’t find her." Edward carried Josh into the bathroom calmly. "Don't worry. She's an adult, not a child. She wouldn't have waited the entire night outside. She's probably back at the Bennets' place. He handed Josh the electric toothbrush. Josh took it before they both stood side by side and brushed their teeth by the sink.

    Remembering how she had criticized Jodie, she was instantly filled with regret. So the former assistant set down the box in her arms and walked toward the entrance of the building. She needed to expose everything! Just as she was approaching the entrance, her hand was pulled and she was dragged aside. The assistant looked at Jodie, slightly disoriented. "Jodie? Why are you still here?" Jodie lowered her gaze and looked at the woman she had fired. "Why did you turn back?" The assistant retrieved the card from her pocket. "I saw this and realized I might have misunderstood you. So I turned back and saw the entire scenario. Jodie, I'm so sorry to have doubted you!" Jodie shook her head as she did not mind the apology. "There's nothing to apologize for. As long as you bring the card to that company, they'll give you a pretty good position." The assistant nodded, but her gaze lingered on Rue and Ian. "Jodie, thank you, but there's something I need to do before I go!" Jod

    Jodie frowned and picked up the business card from the floor. Then, she pulled the assistant's arm and placed the card into her hand. "Don't be silly, you need the job. You need to build your career in the city so you can earn more money to send home, don't you?" The assistant scoffed before she turned around to pack her things. "I don't need your pretentious pity! Since you wanted me to leave, you must have cut me off any backup plans I may have, so save it!" Jodie backed up, still frowning. "I'm not pretending. I'm just thinking you should leave here before it's too late." The assistant was so enraged, tears began to well up in her eyes as she put her things in a box. "Fine, since the entire Comer Corps is yours! I'm just a tiny employee, I have nothing I can say!" After quickly cleaning up her desk, the assistant bumped into Jodie’s shoulder when she walked past Jodie as if she was avenging herself. Jodie almost fell. However, she still walked up and grabbed the assist

    The next day, when Rue woke up in the bed, Ian was already dressed and prepared to leave. "Ian, where are you going?" Rue cocked her head and asked in confusion. Ian was slightly surprised. "I have to go to work." Disappointed, Rue lowered her head. "What about me, Ian? Where am I supposed to go?" Ian sat on the side of the bed and hugged Rue. "You weren't home the entire night, won't the Bluemels be worried about you? Why don't I send you home?" Rue's gaze lowered. 'Worried about me? Impossible! Why would the Bluemels worry about me?' She reached out and tugged at Ian's collar, shaking her head. "No, I want to follow you to work." Ian was a little hesitant. "Today? Right now? But I haven't let my current assistant go yet..." Rue grabbed onto Ian's waist with an affectation on her face. "So fire her. You're the general manager, right? It's just a phone call away. I want to be with you, the sooner the better..." Ian was ecstatic at Rue's words. He stroked her back.

    Josh's eyes sparkled. When he had gifted the gift, Edward was aloof and only casually asked the old butler to keep it. However, he did not expect Edward to value it so much that he placed the table lamp here. Edward looked at Josh's sparkly eyes and patted his head. "What are you looking at? You should sleep. Aren't you going to school tomorrow?" Josh nodded quickly and the two fell onto the bed playfully. Even though the two were sleeping on one side of the bed each, Josh was satisfied. The moment he shut his eyes, Edward took him into his arms. The young Josh was immediately enveloped in Edward's warm embrace. Deeply moved, Josh's eyes opened wide. He then reached out to hug Edward's waist with a glad smile. As everyone had slowly drifted off into dreamland, a human figure sat in front of the Bluemel mansion, shivering in the cold breeze. Rue clutched her palms into fists. Seeing the darkness around her, she picked up her phone and dialed a number. A drowsy voice

    Rue halted and turned around, her body trembling uncontrollably. Mr. and Mrs. Bennet were right. She could not control a man like this! However, she did not want to give up on a man this exceptional, even though she could not manipulate him, and worse, she did not want to give Rachel the opportunity! "Edward, w-what is it? Do you have anything else you'd like to do?" Edward squinted coldly. "What are you trying to do, going upstairs?" Rue gritted her teeth. "I would like to go and rest..." "Rest? You hit my child, and now you want to go upstairs and rest?" Edward cocked his head with Josh in his arms. There was a chilling look on his face. Rue shuddered. "I've already explained myself. It was only an accident, but you didn't believe me. Besides, you've already hit me, what more do you want?" Josh tugged at Edward's hand non-stop. "Father, please let it go. I think mother might not be in a great mood tonight, so she..." Edward held onto Josh's tiny hand with his large

    Rue's expression was full of darkness and displeasure. "What did you say, Josh? You've become bad. You weren't like this before. Who taught you to disobey your mother like this?" Josh allowed Rue to pull him around by the collar and his face turned redder by the second. Lifting Josh by his collar, Rue almost strangled him as Josh was about to pass out from not being able to breathe. "No one taught me, I was only stating the fact." Rue's eyes narrowed as she lifted Josh higher and higher, not paying attention to how he was struggling to breathe. "Rue, what the hell are you doing?!" Edward was standing on top of the staircase when he called out coldly. He could not wait for Josh to knock on his door anymore, so he went outside to see what was happening. However, He did not expect to be treated to a sight like this! 'That woman deserves death for treating my son like this!' Hearing Edward's voice, Rue whipped around instinctively to look at Edward. She shuddered and

    Rachel paused, confused. "Baby, why do you say 'again'? I just found out from them this afternoon, did you already know?" Ziggy shook his head. "No, didn't you just mention the incident at the toilet?" Rachel scratched her head awkwardly. "Oops, I must've confused myself."Ziggy reached out from under the blanket and patted Rachel's head with a smile. "Mommy is a little scatterbrained!" Rachel hugged Ziggy and rolled around in bed as they both laughed loudly like bells. "Baby, I have a feeling that a guardian angel is protecting me! Every time something bad happens, they’ve always protected me from all the bad things!" Ziggy nodded happily. He wanted to tell Rachel that he was the guardian angel she was talking about.However, to avoid scaring her, he chose to remain silent. "That's right! Mommy's guardian angel must be very handsome!" Rachel pouted. "How do you know it’s a man?! I think she must be a beautiful woman angel!" Ziggy shook his head decisively. "No no!
