Chapter 371

Once the wedding date was set, both mothers were thrown into a whirlwind of activity. The arrangements for the venue, hotel banquet, invitations, and all sorts of other details were overwhelming.Willow just happened to glance at the living room as she passed by, and the chaotic scene made her head spin. She had hoped to keep everything simple, but both mothers were determined to plan a grand affair.Feeling helpless, Willow turned to the other key person in the wedding for support. Unfortunately, not only did she not get any, but her suggestion was also rejected."This is our only wedding, so it should be as grand as possible."Willow didn't know what possessed her to bring up the one thing she shouldn't have. "But this is my second marriage."As soon as she said it, she instantly regretted it so much. She knew all too well that Theodore had a particular sensitivity about her previous marriage to the Strand family.As expected, Theodore, who had been lounging on the sofa with a

"This Finley is…""He's the second son of the Bassett Corporation, a rising star that everyone in the industry knows about. His endorsements are booked out for the next two years. Even I'm surprised we managed to sign him at such a low price."Joey closed the folder and said, "Could this be a case of getting a head start due to proximity? Maybe it's because of your connection as his future sister-in-law.""But I never mentioned anything to Theodore about the spokesperson.""Who in Emperia doesn't know about our company's relationship with the Bassett Corporation? He's not clueless."As Joey spoke, Willow nodded thoughtfully."Maybe you should ask Mr. Bassett about it?""No need," Willow responded as she shook her head. "I don't want to rely on him too much for work-related matters. "If this decision was made without my input, then it's already done. Just make sure the ad is shot well. Who's in charge?""Annie is handling it personally.""Good."After Joey left, Willow was l

Evening fell as Willow returned to her apartment."Theodore didn't come back with you? I made his favorite dish, braised ribs."Helen untied her apron and set it aside. With a beaming smile, she said, "Willow, my dear daughter, it seems your hardships are finally over. You'll have nothing to worry about once you marry into the Bassett family. Even Cedar and I will benefit from it."Lounging on the sofa, Cedar immediately put on his headphones and pretended not to hear a word as Helen continued to nag."When you and Theodore get married, you should have a child as soon as possible to secure your position. Your mother-in-law seems nice enough, but remember, time reveals a person's true colors, so stay on guard...""Mom," Willow interrupted as she got impatient. "Just take care of yourself, and that would already be a huge relief for me.""What do you mean by that?""You think I've forgotten about the trouble you caused? Do you know how much Theodore had to pay off because of your

Willow shook her head. "I don't want it anymore. Just get me some juice, please.""Sure.""Kathy, when did Theodore leave?"Kathy brought the juice from the kitchen. "He left early this morning and didn't even have breakfast. He came back so late last night, and with all this back-and-forth, he’s barely gotten any sleep. "Poor thing, he must be exhausted."Willow glanced toward the kitchen and asked, "Kathy, could you make some fish soup for lunch?"…After breakfast, Isaac arrived to pick up Willow."Is your neck fully healed? Why not take a few more days to rest?""I'm fine now. Plus, I wouldn't trust anyone else to drive," Isaac replied. He tightened his grip on the steering wheel as he recalled the accident. The memory of it was still fresh and unsettling.Suddenly, the sound of a ringing phone filled the car."Hello? Annie?"On the other end, Annie anxiously said, "Ms. Jett, Finley is missing."Willow frowned before sitting up straight."We were scheduled to shoot t

Chapter 375

The house was enormous, and the housekeeper led Willow through several doors before finally stopping. "Mr. Finley is inside," the housekeeper said, pushing open the door and stepping aside.Inside was an indoor pool, and the moment the door opened, the pounding rhythm of electronic dance music hit her. Colorful balloons were floating everywhere, and men and women were laughing together, enjoying the party. A DJ was in the corner, mixing tracks and controlling the lights. Finley had gone off the grid to throw a pool party. Willow's hand tightened into a fist at her side. As she stepped into the room, her three-inch heels clicked sharply on the floor."Finley!"A man on the sofa, surrounded by beautiful women, turned his head at the sound of his name. His features were even more striking than in his photos, yet there was little resemblance to Theodore. Those flirtatious eyes were nothing like Theodore's cool, distant demeanor."Who are you?" A woman dressed in Chanel haute co

"What?" Finley's face darkened as he suddenly grabbed Willow by the arm. With a "splash", her phone flew from her hand and fell directly into the pool.Laughter erupted around them."You really messed up now!" The room filled with the sound of jeers and heckling. As Willow struggled to free herself from his grip, she said, "Let go.""Now that the evidence is gone, how are you going to post anything online?" Finley remarked triumphantly with his arrogance palpable."You can't prove I violated any contract. I called in sick today. What can you do about it? And if you dare talk, my fans will ruin your company. Believe me, they'll leave you bankrupt." Before he could finish, he widened his eyes. He yelped in pain and clutched his foot.Willow's high heel had come down hard on his foot without hesitation. The sharp and stabbing pain shot up from the top of his foot, forcing Finley to hop in place.At that moment, he was grimacing in agony.Willow seized the opportunity to pull aw

Chapter 377

Although Finley's expression was filled with reluctance, he eventually changed his clothes and came out. Willow was still on the phone. She said, "No need, I've got this handled.""Alright."After she hung up, Finley walked over with his hands behind his back. He asked, "Who were you on the phone with? Was it Theodore?" Willow pretended she didn't know anything. She asked, "Who's Theodore?" "Don't play dumb. Everyone knows what's going on. Did you run and tattle to my brother?""I don't have the time to waste on snitching over something so trivial.""Even if you did, it wouldn't work. My brother always takes my side. It's just a waste of time."Willow glanced at him but said nothing. "Get in the car."After dropping Finley off at the filming location, the rest of the afternoon turned into an exhausting ordeal because he kept coming up with excuses.For example, he was thirsty, hungry, or tired. He always found a reason not to cooperate.By the time they finally finishe

Finley's face turned pale as he called out, "Theodore.""Is this lazy, evasive attitude what you've learned during your year abroad?" Theodore questioned."Theodore, let me explain. I was just… just…""Just trying to get back at me," Willow finished the sentence for him. She crossed her arms calmly as she was unfazed.Finley instantly flushed with anger. "Shut up.""You're the one who needs to shut up." Theodore's voice was cold and showed no mercy. "From now on, all your work is suspended. Your endorsements, films, public appearances, everything. You can get back to them when you've finished shooting the ad for Joywell. Not before."The room fell into silence. Everyone exchanged bewildered glances."What?" Finley couldn't believe what he heard."Theodore! You're putting all my work on hold because of her?""Mr. Theodore, Mr. Finley was only…" his manager began to intervene. However, Theodore glared at the manager to make him stay silent on the spot."Do you understand me?" T

Chapter 379

Back at Bassett Residence, Sara would occasionally be willing to step out of her private chapel ever since Finley returned, "Is Finley not busy with work these days? He's been home quite a bit lately," Sara asked.At that moment she enjoyed a rare moment of sunlight in the garden outside the chapel, while Ellie massaged her shoulders.Ellie hesitated for a moment at the question. "What's work compared to family? Finley's always been family-oriented, as you know. Even though you sent him abroad when he was young, he's always kept our family close to his heart."Sara gave a slight nod as she was pleased with Finley's sense of duty.David, who stood nearby, couldn't help but chime in, "Ma'am, why keep this from her? If you don't say something soon, Mr. Finley might end up always staying home.""Silence." Sara sensed something was wrong and asked, "What's going on?"David immediately answered, "It's Mr. Theodore. He suspended all of Finley's work.""Why?""Because Finley upset

Chapter 380

She suddenly turned her head and glanced in his direction, revealing a serene and innocent face.Theodore felt a jolt in his chest. However, the woman abruptly answered a phone call and hurriedly left. Theodore frowned slightly, and without much thought, he followed her out.Meanwhile, after saying goodbye to her friends, Willow turned to look for Theodore but found no trace of him. She then quickly asked a nearby staff member."Mr. Bassett seemed to have left just now.""Left?"Willow was slightly taken aback. Even if something urgent had come up, Theodore would never leave without informing her. She immediately made a phone call.The call connected right away."Theodore, where did you go?""I had to handle something urgent."Theodore's voice sounded as cold as usual, but it carried a hint of barely perceptible urgency.Willow, who felt uneasy, asked, "Is something wrong?"Theodore paused before replying, "It's nothing. I'll be back once I've taken care of it.""Alright,
