Chapter 1

"It is this court's decision that the defendant, Ezekiel Clark, is found guilty of the charges of murder and fund-raising fraud, and will be sentenced to death two years from now."Thunk!Following the sound of the gavel striking against the sound block, Ezekiel's fate was sealed.Catelyn stood up abruptly from the audience stand. Tears gathered in her amber-colored eyes but stubbornly refused to fall as she stared anxiously at Ezekiel."Dad…" She went up in an attempt to speak to Ezekiel, and it felt like there was a lump in her throat.Dressed in the prisoner's white uniform, Ezekiel was dragged along the way by a few prison guards. He looked worn, without a trace of his previous spirit. He appeared as though he had aged, and even his sideburns had started to turn gray."Cat, believe me—I am not a murderer. All these are false accusations; my enemies are framing me!"Catelyn's heart ached at this. She believed with all her heart that her kind father could not possibly be a mur

Two months later, in a hospital…"Congratulations." The doctor handed the ultrasound scan result to Catelyn. "You're eight weeks pregnant!"Catelyn paled as though she had been struck by lightning. Refusing to accept it, she asked, "Could there be a mistake, Doctor?""The sample of your urine shows that you are positive, and there couldn't possibly be a mistake," the doctor answered firmly. "Besides, your insomnia and postponed menstruation couldn't be faked, could they?"Catelyn's mind went blank, her hands shivering as she grabbed onto the scan result.She got pregnant, under the circumstances of her family's decline and the Mason family's withdrawal from the arranged marriage.It was from that time with Jamie two months ago… It was Jamie's child.The doctor seemed to be used to this sort of situation and reminded her kindly, "If you choose to do an abortion, I suggest that you do so as early as possible. Nonetheless, you're having twins, which rarely happens, so it's best to

Chapter 3

Four years later, in BrightGene Group's design department…The company fell into mayhem as everyone fought over the chance to design the mansion for the Mason family's young master.The Mason family was the head of the top four families in Sapphire City, and as the young master's four-year-old birthday approached, many of his relatives sent him gifts. Some gave him cruise ships, some put companies under his names, and others offered stock or funds as gifts.Naturally, there were a few who bought him grand mansions.The order that BrightGene Group received this time was to design the interior of the young master's mansion."Enough!" Anne, the manager of the design department, slammed her palm onto her desk. "What's the point of all this arguing? Look at Catelyn doing her job: designing whatever she has been assigned to and never fighting over anything! Does fighting make this more interesting to you people?"Everyone quieted down, and Catelyn felt speechless, so she was merely spa

"I want buffalo wings," commanded the boy in the Bens to his chauffeur.A troubled expression appeared on the chauffeur's face, as the order he received was to wait for Master Cedrick with the young master. "But Master Cedrick said he'll be here soon, Young Master. You—""Five minutes." The boy raised his arm and pointed at his watch. "If I don't see the buffalo wings, you'll go to Grandpa Albert to get your last salary."The expression on the man's face instantly transformed from troubled to fear. He knew that the young master never went back on his word."Stay here, Young Master, and don't go anywhere. I'll be back right away!" the chauffeur reminded him hastily before he carefully locked the door and rushed toward the nearest restaurant.What he did not realize was that the boy in the vehicle had unlocked the car with ease after he was gone, and stared intently at the mother and son who walked past him.His heart throbbed as though something was about to happen.The boy follo

Chapter 5

Meanwhile, Catelyn brought Miles back to the kindergarten and fretted he would try to provoke the teacher on purpose. To her surprise, however, Miles's performance was perfect.He addressed all the teachers as 'pretty ladies' with a smile, his behavior as elegant as a high-born gentleman. Because of that, he enslaved the hearts of many easily, leaving all the teachers with nothing to say but praise him for how adorable he was.Miles sneakily winked at Catelyn with a smug look on his face, as though trying to tell her that he was fully capable of making people like him as long as he wanted to.Catelyn remained quiet with resignation.As soon as she settled the admission procedures, she hurried back to the office. She had only been out for an hour, and she might still be able to convince Anne to consider her working for a full day.With that thought in mind, Catelyn sped up, only to run into someone's warm, strong chest around the corner at the end of the street.Thump!She lost b

Chapter 6

The candy was stuck in Ollie's throat. Instantly, Ollie's face turned a bruising red as his eyes frantically roved around.Cedrick picked Ollie out of the bush and placed him back on the ground."Ahem!" Ollie coughed vigorously and opened his mouth to breathe, before finally swallowing the piece of candy.As soon as he looked up, he saw Cedrick's stern, cold expression. Ollie immediately put away any trace of childishness and lowered his head politely."Father."Cedrick rarely disciplined Ollie and felt more responsibility than love toward the child. He lifted an eyebrow and questioned coldly, "Do you know how much time and energy I've wasted looking around for you?"Ollie lowered his head further. "I'm sorry.""I didn't come looking to hear that you're sorry. Why did you sneak out?"Ollie bit his lip while facing the towering figure before him, but he remained silent."I'll take it that you simply did so for fun, but there won't be a next time.""…" Ollie kept quiet.Cedric

Chapter 7

The next day…A beautiful day it was as the sun shone brightly, but Catelyn felt slightly distracted somehow.She got into a taxi and went to the address provided by the butler. The enormous mansion was situated north of the city near a national park. There were not many residential estates open for sales around the area as the policies had limited the selling prices and had caused most developers to opt for retaining their real estate.The mansion before Catelyn ranged for over 300 meters with beautiful greenery, a football court, and even an outdoor swimming pool.It was the very definition of a grand mansion.Just as Catelyn looked around with the butler's supervision, the door to the second floor of the mansion was pulled open, and a tall figure stepped toward the balcony.Cedrick's attention was instantly drawn toward Catelyn, who was standing by the swimming pool, and he immediately frowned. "Why is she here?"Eason followed Cedrick's gaze and explained, "That's Miss Catel

Chapter 8

"I don't trust you," commented Cedrick, opening his thin lips while staring at her with his eagle-like eyes. He could still smell the faint scent of gardenias from her body, and he had to admit that he was drawn.The few words had Catelyn clenching her fists to the point that her knuckles were turning white."I get it, I'll withdraw from this project. Don't worry about it, Mister Mason." She forced herself to straighten up her back, knowing perfectly well that there was no point to argue. Cedrick was surprised that she agreed that quickly. "It's my son who chose you, and it's me who fired you. I trust that you know how to explain?"Ollie had already been distant, so he did not wish to create conflict with his son over such small matters.Catelyn did not look away and stared directly into his eyes. "I'll tell Young Master that I'm not feeling well and, therefore, will not be able to manage the project.""You may go now.""Alright." Catelyn turned to leave without hesitation, but

Chapter 9

Ollie steadily returned to the wooden desk and sat behind it. There were even a few essential oil diffusers that oozed a pleasant scent capable of calming a person's nerves.When Albert opened the door, he happened to see Ollie bending to pick up a glass from the floor.The boy had soft, pale skin, but always pursed his lips in a manner that did not match his age.When he saw Albert walking in, he simply asked in a calm tone, "Something you need, Grandpa Albert?"Albert felt defeated, because Ollie had learned from the best and was as intimidating as his father."Nothing, just wanted to check with you to see what you'd like for lunch, Young Master.""Whatever you arrange," replied Ollie with his lips pursed, still from hearing what Cedrick had said.Albert seemed to have sensed something and looked at the boy endearingly. "Young Master, Eason told me that you've assigned a female designer to renovate your new mansion?"Ollie's lips curled into a faint smile at the mention of Ca

Chapter 10

After a moment of awkward silence, Stella hurried over to hug Miles and attempted to convince him, saying, "Miles, think about it: If Mommy marries into a wealthy family, you'll be a high-born! Not only can you stay in a big house, but you'll have a lot of toys, too.""I'm not a three-year-old anymore. I don't need a big house nor a lot of toys." Miles wiggled his way out of Stella's arms before moving the chair across Catelyn, gesturing her to come with a flattering expression on his soft, round face. "Sit here, Big Kitty, I want a hug.""Tsk! This little troublemaker is so hard to impress. Don't forget that I'm the one who kept you company when it was thundering a few days ago when your mom was away on a business trip!" Stella pretended to be offended.Catelyn bent down to hold Miles and rubbed her cheek against his. Miles had always been afraid of thunder and would always need someone with him to calm down when the sky rumbled."Were you scared that night during the thunderstorm
