Sam wasn't too happy about it, but he still gave an approving grunt.

Afraid that Sam would change his answer, Rebecca asked again, "Really? You're not lying to make me happy, are you?"

Sam was afraid that Rebecca would start crying again. Therefore, he replied lovingly, "Yes, I'm not lying. Let me know once you've decided on a date, alright?"

Rebecca hugged her brother immediately. "I know that you love me the most. However, I need to stay at Riverwood for two days, so I'll let you know when I am free to head back."

Rebecca was all smiles again after hearing Sam's answer. She let go of his neck and checked the flowers. She was afraid that they might be squished.

Sam knew at this moment that Rebecca had been faking it. Aside from the slightly reddened eyes, there were no signs of tears at all.

"Becca Johnson, what a good sister you are that you dared lie to me!" Sam felt angry.

Rebecca smirked in response. "Isn't that what you taught me? Would I still be your sister if I wasn’t

    Judging from Daniel's actions and demeanor, it seemed as though he caught Rebecca cheating on him.Rebecca laughed. "My relationship with Mr. Johnson doesn't concern you, Daniel Winston, since we’re divorced. Why do you care who I'm seeing?"Judging from what happened so far, Rebecca was sure that Daniel had misunderstood the situation, just like the first time he met Sam. However, things were different now. They weren't legally divorced the first time, but they were now. Besides, Jessica was his fiancee, so why did he still care about her? What a joke!Daniel replied matter-of-factly, "Grandpa left you to me. It doesn't matter that we're divorced. I’m like a brother to you. We’ve always been close. Now, what's wrong with an older brother caring about his younger sister?"Rebecca was dumbfounded by his logic. How could he have the cheek to say that he was like a brother to his ex-wife? What a psycho this ex-husband of hers was! Besides, her real brother was standing right there in

    Rebecca retorted without holding back. She had never thought there was anything dirty about the industry Sam worked in. Only certain people were disgusting, and they had nothing to do with everyone else. If Daniel thought the entertainment industry was so filthy, why had he sent Jessica in there then?Did he think that he had the ability to protect Jessica, that he was powerful enough that Jessica didn't need to be nice to others?But Daniel didn't seem to know that his fiancée had long before fallen victim to certain things. She had someone to rely on, and yet she still wanted everything she could get her hands on.When she thought of the pictures she'd seen, Rebecca felt very dirty. Even looking at Daniel felt disgusting to her now. However, Rebecca knew that not everyone was like Jessica. At least, such things didn’t happen in Sam's company, and Penny wasn't like Jessica, either.Penny had suffered a lot in the Lowe family as it was. Even so, she had never given up on her prin

    Though he suffered Daniel's glare, Ryan didn't think he'd said anything wrong. It was true that Daniel had a few screws loose. Daniel took medication every day and occasionally went to a therapist. He even assessed his romantic problems using the half-baked knowledge he'd learned. Ryan didn’t know anyone else like him."Ah, right, your keys." Remembering what he was at Four Seasons for tonight, Ryan took out the car keys from his pocket and handed them to Rebecca. "Here. Thank you for this afternoon. I owe you one. The car's parked by the bakery at the entrance to Crystal Bay. I heard that you live there. You should be able to see it once you get back."Rebecca was a bit stunned as she accepted the keys. "Didn't I say I wasn't in a rush to get them back? Why did you hurry over here to bring them to me tonight?"At the mention of this, Ryan's expression became annoyed. He let out a breath and glanced over at Daniel. When he spoke, his voice was aggrieved. "Someone dumped me here afte

    Daniel had heard the same statement before from Rebecca. Thus, Daniel felt that he had the right to say it again. Smoothly, he said, "I consider her my little sister. Is it a problem that I'm concerned about her love life?"Daniel's conviction stunned Ryan. For a moment, he didn't know what to say. Did Daniel really think of Rebecca as his little sister? Could he really have brainwashed himself into actually believing that?What older brother had such antagonism for his sister's boyfriend? Even if he didn't like his future brother-in-law, he still had to be polite, right? But Daniel was treating Sam like he was his romantic rival!Ryan couldn't be bothered to confront Daniel about that. He'd already said enough. If Daniel didn’t wake up to the fact on his own, no amount of talking would convince him."It's fine if you want to poke your nose in her business, but is Bex okay with you doing that, considering that you're her ex-husband? Don't forget, Danny, she has older brothers. They

  • Yearning for Her Return    Chapter 160 When Will Daniel Marry Jessica?

    Jessica had only found out about this incident after her staff told her about it. After all, she was a public figure and had to take care of her image around other people. If not, celebrities could cause their own downfall, no matter how good the company's PR team was.Jessica's staff weren't the only ones who had spoken to her about this. Even Karen had come to the hospital to give her some advice.Men loved women who were kind and weak. Although it was enough for Jessica to just fake it in front of Daniel, it was also a good idea to keep the facade up in front of others, too. After all, what if the image didn't hold up one day? What if someone exposed her one day?Thinking of the Brown family's banquet that day and how Rebecca had disclosed to so many socialites that she had such scars, Karen gritted her teeth in hatred. Her tone became even more urgent as she advised Jessica.Jessica was annoyed to hear all that. "I know all this, Mom. I’ll be more careful in the future. But tha

    "Why are your photos still up? Didn't Cal get rid of them?" Sam frowned at the picture of Rebecca and a strange woman. "And who's this? Why do you have a photo with her? We don't even have a photo of the two of us together!"Rebecca quietly put her phone away. She smiled sheepishly. "If you want to take a photo together, Sam, we can take one now."Sam wanted to smack Rebecca over the head, but he held back. "Tell me honestly. What's going on?"Rebecca could only tell Sam about how she had taken a photo with a nurse at the hospital today. Then, she also explained the news she had seen online.The nurse’s situation was quite pitiful too. First, she had been told off just because she had gone to change Jessica's bandages. She had felt aggrieved and complained about it on her own social media, but that evolved into an online incident because of Jessica's fans.It wasn't just because of the nurse's post either. The nurse had posted a photo of herself and Rebecca before this too, which

    Rebecca and Caleb both acted very quickly. In no time, they got the nurse's account protected. At the same time, the posts that exposed her personal information had been deleted, preventing more of her data from being spread.Rebecca also contacted Carl Collins and told him to tell the nurse not to go online for a couple of days if she could avoid it. At the same time, Rebecca advised her to have someone accompany her at all times. No one could guarantee that a rabid fan wouldn't go to the hospital and harm her.Carl had been the one who called that nurse over that afternoon, so he probably had her contact details. Carl replied very quickly. Even the text he sent bore some resentment.It read, "Your reminder is coming too late. I saw that girl crying this afternoon when she checked her phone. The hospital also received some local packages. Guess what was in them? There was a dead rat and a dead cat. There were a bunch of death threats too. They scared the girl so much that she fai

    In the dead of night, the tide of public opinion seemed to swing in Jessica's favor.Even in the wee hours, the competition continued.Inside the ward, Jessica breathed a sigh of relief as she witnessed the improving sentiment in the public discourse.She made a call and said coldly, "Do I really have to spell out every little detail for you? Did I hire you to be a mere freeloader? How dare you disturb my sleep with a late-night call? If you're not up for it anymore, pack your bags and leave tomorrow!"The person on the other end of the phone kept apologizing.Jessica couldn't help but scoff. "I told you all to release a statement and set the record straight early on, but you insisted on taking your time. Now, it's blown up in our faces. You're all incompetent!"She was already in a bad mood from being awakened in the middle of the night. Although the situation was now under control, she couldn't resist delivering another round of scolding. Finally, her mood lifted.As she liste

    Penny didn't have much free time over the past three years.As she had envisioned, during the first year, she honed her acting skills amidst criticism while also working as a translator.Later on, she felt that acting didn't hold much appeal anymore. Moreover, realizing that there weren't any roles left for her, she gradually gave up and moved toward working behind the scenes.She had some work during this period.It seemed that a daring reality show, not caring about potential risks, decided to capitalize on her controversial popularity and invited her to participate in one of their programs.The reason Penny agreed to participate was because the show's first season had a good reputation, and the payment offered was reasonable.Continuously doing translations could be quite tiring. After discussing with Cecilia and weighing the pros and cons, she eventually signed up for this TV show.Unfortunately, she had underestimated the darker side of human nature.The show's production

    "Really?" Zane blurted out, staring incredulously at Sam, who nodded calmly. His unruly and carefree demeanor was restrained, and his composed attitude showed that he wasn't joking.Zane fell silent again, furrowing his brow as he intently observed Sam.It was as if he thought everything through in an instant, giving up without hesitation. He didn't even remind Zane of the request from years ago to take care of Penny. Instead, he said this would be the last time he would help out.Logically speaking, this should be a satisfactory outcome for Zane. After all, from any perspective, the Lowe family's scion would only be a burden to Sam.Looking again at Sam's attitude, it seemed he didn't want Penny to know he was the one quietly spending money to handle things behind the scenes.Since there was no plan to meet her, he didn't need to worry about anything after that. If that was the case, it would be better to just end it early.That way, if Sam saw Penny falling in love, getting mar

    All those old scoundrels from the Lowe family undoubtedly ranked the highest. Then there was Jessica, the entertainment industry's national goddess, who also played a significant role.Besides them, there were a few minor celebrities who didn't really make the cut.However, as Sam's partner and someone who watched him grow up, Zane privately hoped Sam could find a better girl.So, he advised, "There are plenty of socialites in Riverwood, and Amdale has no shortage of beautiful young ladies, either, and Rookfort isn't much different."You and the Lowe family's daughter haven't even officially met…""Who said I haven't met her?" Sam interrupted him without a second thought.He had even seen her twice. How could Zane say they hadn't even met yet?The first time, she gave him all the money she had. The second time, he spoke up to help her get that role.After these interactions, they could be considered acquaintances.Zane choked up and couldn't find the words to refute.He was s

    Because Penny declined his offer, Zane didn't insist. After a bit of small talk, he ended the call.He politely mentioned that if she needed any help, she could call this number again. If he could assist in any way, he certainly would.However, Zanw knew very well that, given Penny's temperament, she would rather give up what she had than actively seek help from a stranger.Yes, to Penny, Zane was just a stranger. He was a person she had met once but didn't really know.This time, Penny didn't respond as coldly as she did when she was 18. Instead, she exchanged a couple of polite pleasantries, mentioned that she would reach out if needed, and then hung up the phone.After that, she let out a long sigh of relief and lay on the lounge chair on the balcony, gazing at the view outside the window.There were fluffy white clouds in the azure sky and the greenery visible in the neighborhood. Sparrows were chirping persistently as they darted through the forest, and the cicadas loudly bu

    Although the other person said only one word, Penny could still tell he didn't have any ill intentions.Because of that faint sense of familiarity, Penny didn't hang up the phone immediately. "Hello? May I ask what this is about?"The unfamiliar and distant tone probably made the man on the other end of the phone pause for a moment. It was only after a brief silence that he responded."Young lady, don't you remember me? It's Zane Moran."His voice carried a laugh, with a hint of teasing.Only then did Penny remember who he was, but she wasn't happy at all.Zane meant no harm when that incident happened back then. But despite that, over the years that had passed, he became one of the people and things Penny would rather not recall.Whether it was the exam she missed, the incident where Spencer took her to the hotel against her will, or Zane, who gave her 30 dollars for a taxi ride.She just wanted to hide all of them deep in her memories.The recent events had particularly made

    "I'm fine. You all don't have to look so worried. You're making it seem as if something bad is going to happen to me."Penny looked at the two people at the door who were showing a range of expressions, feeling speechless.Cecilia was provoked by her words, and her eyes turned red."We're worried about you. You have no idea what you look like right now. You're almost like one of those disheartened protagonists in novels who hated the world."Penny clicked her tongue twice and said, "Aren't you exaggerating?"She didn't believe it. She was just worried about money. It wasn't like she had become disillusioned with life.Besides, she didn't dislike this world at all. On the contrary, she really liked it.Whenever Penny came across posts online suggesting that all humans should just die, she always felt like rolling her eyes. If they wanted to die, they shouldn't drag others with them.When searching for her own role in movies, TV dramas, and novels, Penny particularly preferred re

    Penny's way of clarifying things was to simply tell the truth.Sometimes, trying to cover things up would just lead to needing 100 more lies to continue the cover-up. That would often end up making things worse and more ridiculous.It was better to tell the truth about the situation.To answer the question of why she lashed out at the Lowe family, she briefly explained her experiences over the years.Why didn't she attend the final paper of the college entrance examinations? She personally reopened that old wound.As for that man in the hotel, Penny didn't have much of an impression of him anymore. She only remembered not taking his business card and accepting 30 dollars from him.Why did she show up at that man's hotel room? She wrote it down truthfully—it was her father who personally took her and left her at the hotel, wanting to trade her like a commodity.Every single word was carefully considered and written by Penny.She didn't share much of these things with Cecilia.

    Once the official statements were released, Penny's career being ruined became a certainty.The only surprising thing was probably that after the film crew issued their statement, the largest investor also requested to withdraw.The film crew was completely shocked, but there was nothing they could do. The scion was willing to lose money just to withdraw his investment, so what could they do?The amount of money in the compensation was nothing compared to the amount that the scion planned to invest. The production team would incur a significant loss.With one less investor, the project's status was essentially downgraded. They had much less room to manipulate their gains now, too.One would understand why the scion was doing this if they used their brain a little.However, the protests from the audience couldn't be ignored, and compared to the investors, it was clearly more important to keep the show going.After all, they could always attract more sponsors, even if the amount o

    In addition to the widespread backlash caused by the phone recording, Penny's academic credentials were also scrutinized and exposed.Before the college entrance exam, she had always been the top student in her school and had never ranked anything else.However, in the college entrance exam, she barely passed the minimum mark for key institutions, far below her usual performance.Some people speculated that she had been cheating during regular exams and that her actual abilities were much worse.However, the exam results could be checked online, and the fact that Penny scored zero on the last exam was surprising.It was even more shocking that she was admitted to a top-tier university despite missing an exam. It was truly exceptional.But few people paid attention to this information.After all, the achievements attained through hard work couldn't be faked. Even if the results weren't as expected, it was undeniable that she was stronger than many others.Regarding this topic, t
