Chapter 431

Haddon Building was just a stone's throw away from the county clerk's office, practically back-to-back. As soon as Zara snapped out of her daze, she bolted from the office!Yosef was right on her heels, catching her arm. He had not heard the phone call and was confused. "What's going on?"Zara tried to shake him off. They had told her that her dad was gone, but she could not and would not believe it. She needed to see for herself... However, her voice would not come out. The shock had stolen her ability to speak.She had forgotten how to form words, and all she could do was give Yosef a pleading look. She was silently begging him to let her go. She had to see...Yosef had never seen her eyes so full of sorrow, so different from the brightness just before. His eyebrows knitted together, and his lips tightened. He released her.Zara sprinted down the street, her ears ringing. The wind slashed at her cheeks, stinging sharply.She stopped dead in her tracks outside Haddon Building.

The officer brought the note, and Zara knew right away that it was Trevor's writing.He had only written a few sentences.'I'm a total failure at life. It's so pointless. Even my own daughter won't listen to me. She's dead set on marrying that Webb guy. If I die, it'll all be over.'It turned out that this was the reason…He could not stop Zara from marrying Yosef, so he chose death to avoid facing it?Zara had no idea that was why Trevor took his own life. She knew he did not want her with Yosef, but she never thought he would go to such lengths.As Yosef helped Zara out of the police station, she passed out right into his arms.Yosef brought her back to East Coast and called a doctor over, who said she was just extremely upset and would be okay when she woke up."She's not talking either," Yosef said with a heavy heart.The doctor explained, "Not talking can be a sign of a mental issue. If she doesn't start talking after she wakes up, she might need to see a therapist."Yos

Yosef got back to East Coast, walked in, and found Zara still asleep.He took a quick shower, climbed into bed, and held her close. "It's okay, everything will be okay," he whispered.However, deep down, he knew things were about to get tough. With Trevor gone and 45 billion dollars missing, Zara's life would not be calm anymore.His premonition was right.After Trevor's death, the groups that had been waiting quietly started to stir. They were like lava hidden deep underground, ready to burst through the surface after an earthquake.When they did, everything would be consumed by flames and turn to ash....Jumping from a building was one of the most heartbreaking ways to go.Trevor's body was a wrangled mess. Cheryl and Troy's last goodbye was said at the funeral home before Trevor's body was turned into ashes and put in a small box. Cheryl was sobbing so hard she could barely stand. She held the box tightly as she left. Across the street, a man in the back seat of a black c

Yosef replied. "No, I've only seen your dad three times."Once by chance out on the street, once when he met her parents, and once at the villa—just three times.Zara felt a wave of sadness at his words. Yosef knelt down, gently lifted her face, and looked into her eyes. "Sweetheart, what can we do to keep this from weighing you down?"Zara shook her head. She could not stop thinking about it. Her dad had passed away so suddenly. Unless she lost her memory, she could not just forget.Yosef leaned in to kiss her, but Zara pulled away without thinking. He did not keep up with his attempts and just gazed at her with deep concern.Up close, she could see the soft lines of his eyelids. They were not as sharp as usual, and his eyes were filled with worry for her.Zara bit her lip, slid out of bed, and started to change out of her pajamas. She murmured, "I have to go back to the police station."She picked out some clothes from the wardrobe, closed the door, and turned to find Yosef's

Zara shook her head, but was it because she still could not accept her father's death or did she have a different opinion?She straightened out the papers and handed them back to Bob. Without a word, Zara left the police station.Charvi caught up with her and said in a soft voice, "Zara, is there anything about your dad's passing that you're still confused about?"Zara shook her head, unable to explain. Charvi pressed, "Where do you need to go now?""Could you drop me off at the house, please?"Back at home, Zara was surprised to see the house spotless.Sharon had to be rushed to the hospital that day. The food had been left out, but Trevor had saved what he could in the fridge and tossed the rest.That explained the big bag of trash Bob mentioned he had thrown out that evening.In the attic, she noticed her bedding was all new and neatly made, bringing a tear to her eye.They had cameras in the house. After asking Charvi to leave, Zara watched the last footage of Trevor on he

Chapter 436

Winter in Starville was harsh and cold. Today, without the sun, everything looked like it was under a gray veil.Zara's gaze drifted to the distant tombstones that stood in rows. They spoke of a different kind of solitude. Her calm voice faded into the brisk air."I've said what I needed to say. Take care, Mrs. Parker."Macy's brows were creased with worry. "I can't shake the feeling that you've got it all wrong about me, Zara... Did Yosef say something to you?"Zara did not even glance her way and just stared off into the distance. Maybe she was looking at something, or maybe she was just lost in her thoughts. It had been three days since Trevor passed away so suddenly, and she felt numb inside.However, Macy kept talking, her voice filled with sadness. "Being a stepmom is tough, and I've really tried to be there for Yosef with all my heart. However, he still won't accept me. Now you seem to feel the same way, Zara. It makes me feel like I've failed."Zara did not respond, and M

Chapter 437

"The lady in town who's eight months pregnant, Faye, she's your daughter, right? You made me think she was Yosef's girlfriend, but she's really your and Mr. Webb Senior's daughter, isn't she?"And she's probably a couple of years older than Yosef, which is why Mr. Webb Senior won't let her be part of the family officially."If they accepted Faye as part of the family, would it not prove that Ethan cheated while he was married? Ethan would do anything to protect the Azure Cloud Group, the Webb family, and his good name. He would not let anyone find out about that. Plus, he did not want to ruin his relationship with Yosef, his real son, which was why he kept quiet."You just can't stand the thought of your daughter being left out, can you? That's why you've been causing trouble between Yosef and his dad for years. You're hoping to get Mr. Webb Senior to let your daughter into the Webb family. You want her to claim her share of the family fortune."When Macy heard that, her kind and

Chapter 438

Zara woke up face down the next morning.The alarm yanked her from sleep, and she felt like she had barely shut her eyes.Last night was intense. Yosef had playfully talked about making up for a wedding night, but it felt like he was trying to keep her there with him forever.She was all achy and did not want to move. However, the phone kept ringing. Grumbling under the covers, she finally reached out, grabbed it, and mumbled, "Hello?"The person on the line hesitated when they heard Zara's raspy voice. They then asked gently, "Zara?"She rolled over. "Yeah. Cecil, what's up?""You okay?" Cecil sounded worried. She probably thought Zara had been crying all night about Trevor. She could not possibly guess the real reason.Zara was waking up more then. "I'm fine."Cecil sounded relieved. "Well, don't just stay in all day. Come out for a bite. Shelby and I are going out for breakfast. Join us?"Zara glanced around her bedroom. Yosef had already left for work, and the big, quiet E

"Why are you bringing up Xever?" Yosef challenged. "Her dad's name is Trevor. You were just at his funeral yesterday, offering flowers and your respects. Have you forgotten?""There's no need to play games with me," Ethan replied. "If you weren't aware of the situation, you wouldn't have married Zara in secret without telling me. You went ahead without my consent because you were afraid I'd stop you, right?"Yosef stayed silent, lifting a cup of coffee to his nose. The steam clouded his vision, hiding the emotions in his eyes."Yosef, you're in charge of Azure Cloud Group now. You went over my head to ally with Yaxley and Stefan, and I didn't object. However, with power comes responsibility. "You have to find that 45 billion dollars. It'll be a huge problem for the company if you don't," Ethan said before walking away.Yosef put down his cup, his face growing distant and aloof like a frost-covered landscape. The air around him was equally chilly.He dialed Ophite's number. "Got

Chapter 440

After that first gag, Shelby just could not hold back and gagged two more times.Zara quickly grabbed two tissues, folded them, and used them to push the hot plate a little farther away. Cecil hurriedly asked, "Shelby, are you okay?" Shelby took a sip of her tea, which helped calm the queasy feeling in her chest. She shook her head, "I'm fine." Cecil sniffed the plate of food and said, "It doesn't smell too strong. Black pudding is really tasty." Shelby bit her lip. "Maybe I just need to walk around a bit. Sitting for too long without moving probably made me feel sick all of a sudden." Cecil just hummed in acknowledgment a few times, not thinking too much about it. She refilled Shelby's tea cup. Zara glanced at Shelby's stomach and frowned a little, but she did not say anything right then. Shelby did not gag again after that, but she was not very hungry. Cecil, who tended to be pretty direct, picked up the conversation they had left off. "So Zara, you're going to either
