"Ms. Shrill, aren't you the least bit curious about why I'm here today?"Shirley kept her back turned to Sean, thinking that he would forget about it if he could not see her face.However, she was just kidding herself. Sean was not the type to throw in the towel so easily. If he wanted something, he would chase it down to the ends of the earth.Sean chuckled at the sight of her turned back. "Such a shame. I really thought you'd be dying to hear about Kelly. I guess I was wrong."The moment Shirley heard Kelly's name, she lost it. "What did you do to her?! Did Harrison put you up to this? Listen here! If you hurt her, I'll make sure Harrison regrets it for the rest of his days."Sean's eyebrow quirked up in amusement. "Really? If something goes wrong with Kelly, is it automatically Harrison's fault? Why are you so scared of my Uncle Harrison? Did you do something to him that you regret?""I haven't done anything!" Shirley shot back with a fierce glare. "Quit defending him. No matt

Andrew nodded. "Samara, the woman you had me dig into, is definitely gone. But before she left Brookville, she made a pit stop.""Where to?""Briskwater. She popped into some tiny clinic but bailed quickly. Next thing you know, she's overseas and bumps into Ms. Liliana!"Sean's nod was slow, lining up the dots with what Liliana had told him. "And her kid?""Samara wasn't doing too well after the birth, and then she was out of the picture. The kid's been with Ms. Liliana ever since." Andrew watched Sean's face cloud over, an uncharacteristic storm brewing inside him. "Mr. Smith?""Who was Samara close to before she left Brookville?""Well...""Seriously, you didn't even find that out?" Sean's voice was icy, his eyes slicing through Andrew like daggers. "Come on, Mr. Smith. You know investigations aren’t my thing. Why put me on the spot?" Andrew looked like he was about to cry. "Why not ask Lareal or Ronald?"Sean just shot Andrew a frosty look and dismissed him with a flick of

"Keep your eyes on the ground. He can't just vanish into thin air!" Charles snapped, his voice icy. "Anything else?""It's over." Sean could tell by the way Charles was clenching his jaw that he was in a foul mood. "He's my Uncle Harrison, and your father-in-law, for crying out loud!"Charles squinted. "Do you think I should be nice to him?"Forget it.Sean might as well not have mentioned it.Sean shrugged, fully aware of the source of Charles's rage. Regardless of what had happened in the past, Harrison and Shirley leaving baby Noelle behind was simply wrong.After a moment's thought, Sean decided to keep Shirley's treatment of Noelle to himself for then. If he found it infuriating, Charles might just lose it completely.It was baffling how Shirley could treat Kelly and Noelle so differently when they were both her daughters. Anyone could see the injustice of it...."Sir, Ms. Shrill is being discharged from the hospital today!"Ellis brought the news to Harrison, who had n

"Aren't you afraid? Your lady's been locked up in the hospital by your nephew for ages, yet you’re hiding in your shell like a spooked turtle." Shirley's gaze was icy as she faced Harrison. "Harrison, you're just a coward!""Hmph! You'll see soon enough if I'm a coward or not. But yeah, I did want you stuck in that hospital," Harrison said, tilting Shirley's chin upward with his fingers. "Judging by how much you've plumped up in just a week, I guess you're not a total airhead!""What's that supposed to mean?" Shirley inhaled sharply. "Harrison, what are you planning?""Going on a hunger strike was the silliest thing ever. Don't pull that stunt again. Even if you're itching for a dramatic exit, don't starve yourself. With your looks and that figure, it'd be a shame. Starvation is just plain ugly, and I bet even the underworld would reject you!""You're such a jerk, Harrison!" Shirley knocked his hand away. "What do you really want? Haven't I paid back what I owe you?""Not even clo

Shirley shuddered at Harrison's words as if the memories buried deep within her were being torn open, raw and bleeding. "Stop talking. You don't deserve to say things like that!”"And who does? Flynn, the married guy? Or John Anderson, the patriarch of the Anderson family?""You're a monster, not a human!"Knock knock!The sound of knocking on the car window cut through the tension inside.Harrison squinted, then caught the lazy tone of the man outside. "Uncle Harrison, after all these years, you greet me with such a big surprise. It doesn't seem quite right, does it?"Harrison's dark expression came into view as the window rolled down.Sean leaned casually against the door, waving a greeting as the glass came down. "Hey, Uncle Harrison... and the lovely little aunt!" Sean's grin was all innocence, his eyes twinkling with mischief.Harrison's gaze was sharp. "It's been ages, Sean.""Sure has! It’s been, what, over twenty years?" Sean stood easy and confident, taking in the sce

They were taking her back to the Smith residence?"No, I won't go!" Shirley looked at Harrison and Sean in terror. She never expected Harrison to show up, and even Sean got involved. Despite spending so many years by Harrison's side, Shirley hardly understood him. Well, she had never truly tried. She might have known him when he was younger, but after everything that happened, Shirley felt there was an unbridgeable distance between them.As for Sean, she knew even less about him. All she understood was that he was Harrison's nephew. Her recent interactions with him still left her uneasy as she was certain Sean was no saint."Aunt Shirley, one would think Uncle Harrison and I bullied you from your reaction," Sean said with a sly glint in his eyes. He glanced at the driver in the front seat. "You know where the Smith residence is, don't you?"The driver stiffened and instinctively glanced at the passenger beside him. "Drive," the passenger commanded curtly.The driver continued fo

Shirley's face turned pale at Yitty's words. "Ms. Yitty, are you here to accuse me?""How could I dare?" Yitty's expression remained cold, clearly showing her disdain for Shirley. "By the way, should I call you Shirley now, or Madison?"Shirley's expression shifted abruptly. "Well, Mr. Smith has finally returned home. As an outsider, I think I'd better leave.""Stop right there!" Harrison's expression darkened. "Don't you dare walk out!"Shirley froze in her tracks as Harrison's voice rang out. "If you don't want Kelly to trouble you in the future, you'd better do as I say."Harrison reached out and grabbed Shirley's hand. "Yitty, Savannah, this is my wife, Madison Jones."Yitty and Savannah were both stunned. Just as they were about to say something, Shirley reacted faster than they could.Shirley flung Harrison's hand away in shock. "Harrison, when did I ever marry you? I'll have you know, I'll never marry you even if it means I'll end up alone for the rest of my life!""Then

"Thank you for the trouble, Yitty," said Harrison."There's no need for formality; we're family," Yitty replied.As she watched Harrison drag Shirley upstairs, Yitty frowned and turned to Sean. "What's going on?"Sean, who had been silently observing, raised an eyebrow. "Oh, so Aunt Yitty finally noticed me?""Heh." Sean smirked. "What would you like to ask?""Your Uncle Harrison—what's the story? When did he come back? And why Shirley?"Sean paused for a moment, suddenly adopting a more serious tone as he looked at Yitty. "Aunt Yitty, this is a bit complicated. I only recently found out that Uncle Harrison had returned."As for why he's back and his entanglement with Shirley, it's a long story, and I'm still piecing it together. But Aunt Yitty, didn't you notice something unusual?""Unusual? About what?""Do you remember someone?""Who?""Noelle—Charles' wife, Noelle!""Noelle?" Yitty froze at the mention of Noelle's name, her eyes revealing a trace of astonishment. "Why w

Sean's lips curled downward. He was clearly displeased.His expression turned cold. "My business is none of your concern!""I'm your mother. If I don't concern myself with you, who will?" Savannah's temper flared at Sean's words. "I let you have your way with everything in the past. I never said anything about your wild behavior, but this—this is where I draw the line!"Savannah was nothing if not resolute. "Why must it be Liliana? Of all the people you could be with, why her? You didn't even like her before!""Like?" Sean sneered. "I don't even know what liking someone means. I only know that since she's back, I won't let her leave again. That's what I owe her.""Sympathy isn't love, Sean!" Savannah pressed her fingers against her temples in frustration. "Do you even understand that? I didn't interfere when you were young and reckless. Your father and I let you do as you pleased. But this? You've already hurt her once. Why can't you just let it go?""Let it go?" Sean raised

Liliana froze, suddenly realizing she was still holding her phone. She quickly ended the call. "What nonsense are you talking about?""But it's true!" Bobby blinked innocently. "Mr. Smith comes to see me every day. He even plays games with me. When you're not around, he takes me out to play!""What did you just say?" Liliana squinted at him. "Are you saying he took you out?"Bobby seemed to realize he had said something wrong. He quickly grabbed Liliana's hand with his tiny fingers."Mommy, don't be mad. I... I just wanted to go out and play. But I promise, I didn't run around. Mr. Smith carried me the whole time. So please don't be mad!"Seeing the timid look in Bobby's eyes, Liliana's heart softened. How could she stay angry at him? Her eyes welled up with tears, and her voice trembled. "I'm sorry, Bobby. It's all my fault!"If only she had had the money back then. If only she had treated Bobby's illness sooner—or realized it earlier and sought out Sean earlier—maybe Bobby woul
