Saffron was a middle aged lady. When she heard Eddie asking about this, she looked at him worriedly and tried to stop him from having suicidal thoughts. “Mr. Eddie, the company is finally taking a turn for the better. There are many things in life worth living for. “Moreover, Ms. Lauren instructed me to take good care of you. I think you—”Eddie looked at Saffron in confusion as he asked, “I have a lovely wife and daughter. My life is practically perfect. Why would I kill myself?” “You have a daughter? When did this happen? I remember you just filed for your divorce from Sally. You should still be single.” When Saffron got to the end of her sentence, her voice faltered as if questioning her memory. “Sally and I were just married on paper. I’ve always loved someone else, so me having a child already shouldn’t be a surprise.” “Of course. I’ve heard that story from Ms. Lauren too.” Saffron nodded in agreement. “There’s something else I need you to do, too. After my wedding ce

When Maia saw the notification of the news, she could feel shivers down her spine. The headline was about the corpse of a man found floating in the river of the Old Nordic District. There were speculations that the man had fallen into the river after being hit by a tree branch. He was about 1.8 meters tall. Maia saw the photographs as she kept telling herself that it could not be him!Her grip on the steering wheel tightened as she drove on. Marcus had intended to stop her at the traffic light. To his surprise, Maia did not slow down. Instead, she ignored the traffic lights and drove on. Marcus had no choice but to follow her. They were the only two cars on the street, and Marcus immediately drove on the lane next to her. He rolled down his window and tried to shout after her to stop the car. “Maia, calm down! I know you’re worried about Cedric, but it’s dangerous for you to drive on your own. Especially when you’re pregnant too!”Even with the wind howling, Maia could still

Gripping his phone tightly, Eddie barked, “What did you say, Saffron? Are you sure the dead guy from Old Nordic District is 1.8 meters and younger than thirty years old?“I suspect that my brother was in a foul mood and that he’d kill himself by jumping into the river! Do you know what I’m getting at now, Saffron? “I don’t care how you do it. Just get to the bottom of this. I need to know if the dead guy is my brother!“Use any connections you have and find out if there are any 1.8-meter good-looking guys who committed suicide in other rivers in Old Nordic District!”He was worried sick. After he hung up the phone, his grip on it grew tighter.“Did you think I’d kill myself by jumping into the river?” Cedric asked coldly.Turning his wheelchair around, Eddie was stunned for a while. Then, he said with a smile, “Can’t brothers worry about each other? You told me that you were going to take a walk in the Old Nordic District. “Then, Mom and Amanda told me that you fought with Mai

Fidelia gripped her phone as she read the comments. Her eyes were so red with fury that it looked like she could shoot beams out of them!“Damn you, Maia! You stole his heart, you hypocritical bitch. Just what kind of spell did you cast on Cedric to make him fall head over heels for you?! Why can’t he see you for the bitch you are?!”Her chest was rising and falling rapidly from exasperation. Then she sat up on the bed and flung her phone to the corner. A loud sound could be heard as the screen shattered.Someone rapped on her door.“Did anyone tick you off again, Ms. Fidelia? Mr. Thomas heard your voice from the study. He ordered me to check on you.”“Can you mind your own business, plastic face? Don’t you have enough to worry about in this villa? If you have so much time on your hands, then take a day off and fix your damn face.”Neilson didn’t get riled up by her sarcastic remark. On the contrary, he regarded her with a calm look. He was already used to her mannerisms.“If yo

Gigi covered her eyes. Her face turned red and she dashed down the hallway, shouting, “Yowza. Uncle Cedric and Aunt Maia are kissing, Grandma!”Both of them looked at the door. Maia’s face reddened. She didn’t think Gigi would see it.…It was breakfast time, and Marcus gave everyone an itinerary.“This is the itinerary for the opening of Innisfree’s branch hotel. Every prestigious figure in Nordic City would attend the ceremony. You can see the details here.”Then, Eddie chimed in, “I ran it by Marcus, and he agreed that I’d make a public announcement about my and Amanda’s wedding after the opening ceremony is over. We’ll reveal about Gigi’s existence as well.”Putting down the itinerary, he glanced at Eddie and asked, “Have you made up your mind?”Nodding in response, Eddie explained, “I’ve asked Saffron to minimize the unnecessary rumors and the potential damage to the company’s reputation.“It’s only a matter of time before we make this announcement, and we can’t afford to
