Chapter 121 For His Own Good

Rebecca stood frozen in front of the washroom. Her entrance was sudden. Daniel, who was collecting the clothes, was stunned.The pair of thin pajamas seemed surprised at Rebecca's entrance and flipped open to show its pattern clearly.Rebecca almost forgot to breathe. She was wishing for death when she saw them.Daniel looked where her gaze had landed and clearly saw what he was holding. He raised his eyebrows for a bit. Then he figured out why she awkwardly asked for another pair of pajamas last night.He was speechless at his mother's actions. He didn't say a thing and put them into the laundry basket calmly."Let's go."Rebecca stopped looking embarrassed and followed him. Both of them said nothing. The atmosphere wasn't good.Rachel and Cheryl had woken up early and were already downstairs. Breakfast was placed nearly on the table. A couple of dishes were prepared. They looked like they had estimated precisely when they would go downstairs as the breakfast was still steaming

Chapter 122 How Did She React

Rebecca wasn't afraid of Daniel, let alone his glare. She was confused, though.He'd been rather patient with her last night. Why was he suddenly looking at her like she was his archnemesis? It wasn't as if the things she'd said to Rachel were offensive to him.Rebecca only pondered this for a short time, though. She and Daniel were going to go their separate ways soon. There was no need for her to analyze him.So what if he hated her? As she'd said, not everyone had to like her. It was perfectly fine for Daniel to hate her.She started having breakfast.Daniel didn't look at her after leaving the dining table. He wore his suit jacket and bent down to pick up his phone. He turned it on.Cheryl walked out of the kitchen with a bowl of oats. When she saw Daniel's untouched food, she said, "Are you going to work already, Mr. Daniel? Won't you have some more food? Anyway, the dressing for your wound needs to be changed."Daniel didn't turn around, but his actions faltered. Then, he

Chapter 123 Suffocating

"Huh?" Mike was taken aback. For a second, he didn't know what to say.He couldn't tell Daniel about how happy Rebecca had looked, could he? They were getting divorced, not married. But it would be too fake if he were to say Rebecca had been devastated.After some thought, he said, "She didn't have much of a reaction. She just said she'd see you at 4:00 pm."Daniel snorted. "Not much of a reaction? Burst into laughter, more like." He sounded like he was gritting his teeth.Mike fell silent for a second. Then, he said, "I wouldn't go that far." If he remembered correctly, Rebecca had only smiled. She did look happy, but it wasn't to the extent of laughing.It was Daniel's turn to fall silent. After several seconds, he hung up.Mike was rendered speechless.Daniel stood before a window at the hospital. He looked down at his phone. He gripped it so tightly that it was almost as if he wanted to shatter it.Wouldn't go that far, huh?"Dan …" Jessica's voice rang out feebly.Daniel

Chapter 124 No More Mrs. Winston

A chill ran down Jessica's spine. It was a simple sentence, but it was enough to make her feel like she was suffocating again.She took a deep breath. She angrily stabbed at the phone, maybe because she felt the masked man couldn't do anything to her over the phone. "Don't worry. I'll invite you to the wedding!"The masked man didn't reply. Jessica waited a while, thinking he'd say something like he was looking forward to it. But there was nothing.She was so angry she wanted to throw her phone away. She'd already raised her hand when she caught herself and lowered it.After a while, she sent a message to another person who didn't have a profile picture."Dan, you should reconsider. It'd be unfair to you if you're doing this out of pity for my illness. I can tell you like Rebecca. Think it over, okay?"Daniel was about to start the car when he received this message. He faltered. Then, he replied, "I don't like Rebecca. Don't overthink this." He didn't say anything else.He didn'

Chapter 125 Marital Home

Daniel held himself back. He shut his eyes. When he opened them again, his gaze was cold.He glanced at Rebecca, who was signing the form seriously. He was about to say she was becoming more and more like Sam, but he swallowed the words.What did it matter to him who she was like?Daniel pressed down on his pen so hard that the tip almost tore the paper. Ultimately, though, the form was filled out per the procedures.The divorce agreement had been signed, so there were no arguments over the assets. Things moved quickly.Soon enough, they received their divorce certificates. Everything seemed to end when they accepted the certificates.Rebecca sighed in relief when she accepted hers. Finally, everything was over …She tucked it into her bag, then smiled. She was about to bid farewell to Daniel when he'd already gotten up and left. He hadn't even spared her a glance.Maybe it was because he'd long since had enough of her. Now that he was free, he couldn't bear to spend another se

Chapter 126 Division of Assets

Daniel crossed one leg over the other. He tapped his fingers on his knee.Then, he looked up. "Mike, who do you think is your boss? Me or Jessica?"Mike was far from a fool. He immediately understood what Daniel meant. "I'm sorry, Mr. Winston. I know what to do now."He hadn't worked for Daniel long but did have a grasp on his personality. Daniel's tone hadn't been severe, but anyone who'd spent time with him would know he was mad.It was scarier than him allowing the anger to show. Mike didn't dare say anything else. He silently started the car.To his surprise, Daniel said, "I never agreed to turn the Crystal Bay place into our marital home. It's fine for you to be frank with Jessica if she asks."Anyway, even if I don't give that place to Rebecca, Jessica won't be moving in there."Mike subconsciously wanted to ask why, but he held himself back when he saw the look on Daniel's face. He'd be better off keeping his mouth shut.He didn't need to ask, though. Daniel explained wi

Chapter 127 Leave the Marriage With Nothing

"Since you've put it that way, I'll accept them. That way, you can answer to Daniel. But …"Rebecca stopped spinning the pen. She smiled and continued, "Since the shares are now mine, I can do whatever I want with them. I hope he won't interfere."Mike nodded. "Of course." He pushed the agreement back to Rebecca.She signed it without argument. When she was done, she said politely, "Thanks for your hard work, Mr. Hester. Why don't you stay for a meal?"Mike turned her down. He packed his things and said, "Thank you, but I can't. Mr. Winston has other things for me to do, so I can't linger. Anyway, it's not mealtime. It wouldn't be good to hang around."Four Seasons had delicious food, but Mike had gotten to where he was based on hard work. He had to maintain his professionalism and complete all his tasks.Rebecca stood up with him. She checked the time. Indeed, it wasn't the time for food. She didn't persuade him to stay.She smiled. "I won't keep you, then. How about this? I ma

Chapter 128 Her Eyes Watered

Rebecca paused.She was actually reluctant to part with Springford Estate. But it wasn't because of Daniel. Springford was a gift from George, something she chose for herself. Even if she hadn't stayed there for the past three years, it was different from the other vacant houses. She was in silent contemplation when a news notification popped up on her phone screen. It read: "The president of the Winston Group, Daniel Winston, is engaged to the daughter of the Brown family, Jessica Brown."An image was attached with the caption. In the picture, Jessica was in an evening gown, her arms hooked with Daniel, who wore a black suit. They looked like a match made in heaven.Rebecca deleted the notification, not even bothering to read more about it. Her tone turned icy. "Sell them all."She didn't linger in the room and got up from her chair. "I have other matters to attend to. I'll leave the rest to you, Sam. Let me get out of your hair for now."Sam could tell something was off abou

Chapter 130 All That Matters Is That I Accept Her

Mike fell silent.He quietly stared at Ryan, who had his tablet in his hand. He did look like he'd gotten into an online fight.After a moment of silence, Mike made up his mind. He was an employee of the Winston Group. It was his duty to put the company first.After all, if the company's value went down, he would have to kiss his yearly bonus goodbye.Just as he was about to speak up, the door to the resting area opened.An impatient man walked out grumpily.
