Chapter 251 Negotiating

In the season of heavy snow in the north, here, the flowers were still blooming warmly.Shirley took a deep breath and continued walking forward.Not far along, someone would greet Shirley.Shirley just nodded slightly and didn't reply.With every step Shirley took, her resolve solidified.When Shirley reached the true entrance of the cemetery, she raised her head to see Old Mrs. Moore kneeling in front of numerous spirit tablets."Kneel, these are the ancestors of the Moore family." Old Mrs. Moore heard the footsteps behind her, and without looking up, she continued, "The ancestors of the Moore family, I have brought the 1111th generation of the Moore family descendants here!"Without a second thought, Shirley slowly knelt before the cushion prepared by others, following Old Mrs. Moore's etiquette, and performed a full bow."Now that you've returned, you should change your surname." Old Mrs. Moore said nonchalantly, "I will have your name inscribed in the family genealogy...""Hold o

Chapter 252 The Secret Realm

"When did you start keeping an eye on Anna?" Shirley asked slowly."Back when you were in college," Herman answered with his head down. "I followed the instructions of Old Mrs. Nelson, infiltrated early, worked in the company for a few years, and built up a work history before approaching Anna to avoid suspicion."Shirley nodded.She hadn't expected that the planning had started back when she was in college!Should she say, "I'm honored that you've had your eyes on me for so long"?"Did you ever love her?" Shirley rubbed her temples, suddenly feeling very uncomfortable asking such a question.As a daughter, questioned her mother's boyfriend about whether he loved her mother..."I did like her..." Herman answered softly."Just liked her, huh?" Shirley smiled knowingly. "But compared to the perfect life Grandma provided for you, it wasn't enough for you to give up your comfortable life for her, was it?"Herman lowered his head, unable to utter a word."Anna's pregnancy was intentionally

Chapter 253 Visit The Secret Realm

The plane arrived in Indonesia pretty quickly, and after landing, we switched to another plane and took off again.After experiencing two plane crashes in a row, Shirley finally found herself standing on the small island where the research institute was located.Mr. Moore explained, "This island, in terms of national affiliation, no longer exists. It was completely submerged by the sea during a tsunami a few years ago. However, that's just a facade. To ensure safety, we artificially created a tsunami that flooded the signal covering this island. So, in the outside world, it's just a vast ocean, but in reality, the island exists. The things here are too important. Whether it's the Moore family's collection of books or the research institute, we can't let outsiders know. That's why we claim it's the secret realm, not the Moore family's pharmaceutical research institute."Shirley nodded in understanding.How could a family with centuries of history have no means at all?Even though the M

Chapter 254 The Antidote

Shirley was once again taken to the lounge, watching the busy people outside."Running a research institute like this must cost a lot of money, right?" Shirley couldn't help but ask."Indeed," Mr. Moore chuckled slightly and said, "The Moore family sold off all the antiques passed down from our ancestors. How much money do you think we need?"Suddenly, Shirley remembered the words of Old Mrs. Moore, saying that the Moore family was going to perish...For some reason, a shiver ran down Shirley's spine.If the Moore family is going to perish, then what will happen to this place..."Dad! If the Moore family goes bankrupt, what about here...?" Shirley couldn't help but ask, "Will it be affected?"Mr. Moore shook his head and said, "This is the last resort for the Moore family. Most of the family's assets were already transferred here. If the outside Moore family goes bankrupt, although it will be a blow, it won't starve us right away. The wealth left here can support us for another twenty

Chapter 255 The Bankruptcy

"They're all gone now," Old Mrs. Moore abruptly interrupted him, saying, "Gloria is handling the follow-up issues.""Aunt?" Shirley couldn't hold back anymore, "What is Aunt handling? What exactly happened? Grandmother, are you really going to keep hiding things?""I wasn't planning to hide anything. When your aunt comes back, you'll know everything," Old Mrs. Moore said calmly, "The construction here will take half a month to set up houses suitable for everyone to live in. These building components are all finished products, flown in by specialized planes. It's just like assembling blocks. The speed is fast, and we'll soon have new houses to live in."Shirley felt more and more confused.Ignoring them, Shirley turned around to leave, "I have to go back to City F to deliver to Anna..."Before she could take a few steps, she was intercepted by Old Mrs. Moore's assistant.Stopping in her tracks, Shirley retorted without looking back, "Grandmother, at least I am the legitimate heir of th

Chapter 256 Who's Behind This

Old Mrs. Moore did not stop Shirley but just gave her a faint look and said, "I have no objection to you going back. Just remember your identity and responsibilities. Mr. Rupert of the Davis Family is also outside, try to interact more with him."Shirley's body tensed slightly.Gloria continued, "I was able to come back smoothly this time, thanks to the help of Mr. Rupert. Without his help, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to hold on to this last bit of property."Old Mrs. Moore nodded and said, "The connection between the Moore family and the Davis Family is unbreakable."Shirley grew more horrified as she listened.She needed to go back and find out what had happened.Mrs. Moore also stood up, firmly saying, "I'll accompany you back. Mom is worried about you."Shirley looked at Mrs. Moore gratefully.Mr. Moore nodded and said, "It's good that you're going to check as well. I don't understand why we, the Moore family, have angered someone so much that they want to wipe us out co

Chapter 257 A Heart-to-Heart Talk

In a luxurious hotel in Africa at this moment, Keith silently watched the phone screen light up and darken repeatedly, refusing to answer the call.Tony stood by, not daring to say a word.After many missed calls from Madam, is it really okay for Mr. Keith not to answer any of them?As the phone finally quieted down, Keith's face grew increasingly sullen."Wasn't everything handled cleanly? Why would Shirley suspect me?" Keith's gloomy face was almost dripping with water.Tony hung his head, not daring to say a word.Keith's eyes flickered uncertainly as he grabbed the phone and abruptly stood up, striding out with large steps, and threw the phone out the window."Tell Shirley that I'll be staying in Africa for a long time. Let her take care of herself." Keith said coldly to Tony."If she asks about the Moore family, how should I answer?" Tony timidly asked."Just say... I don't know." Keith gritted his teeth, "No matter what she asks, just say I don't know.""Yes..." Tony immediately

Chapter 258 A Tough Battle

"Shirley, hesitation only brings chaos," Rupert placed a bowl of soup in front of Shirley, "If you need my help, I can offer it without any conditions."Just as Shirley was about to refuse, Rupert continued, "I'm not going to use this to make you do anything for me, it's all voluntary. Even if you don't plan on reciprocating, I will still do it."Shirley hesitated, and Rupert continued, "I just want to prove that I am serious. For you, I am willing to do anything."Shirley was taken aback by Rupert's sudden declaration and looked a bit flustered."You are so outstanding and perfect, there must be a line of women who like you from here to the Atlantic Ocean, so why..." Shirley didn't dare to look into Rupert's eyes, unsure how to respond."So what? They may like me, but they are not you. I only want you," Rupert said with a faint smile, "If I don't have the fortune to walk with you in this life, I probably won't get married."Shirley looked at Rupert in astonishment and frowned, saying

Chapter 259 The Argument

Upon hearing this voice, Shirley's body froze instantly!Keith... how could he be at the airport? Wasn't he supposed to be in Africa now? Shirley abruptly turned around and saw a Keith filled with anger and dust.Tony nervously greeted, "Madam."Shirley nodded as a form of acknowledgment, her eyes fixed on Keith.What did that statement mean?Did he even understand what he was saying?Was she such a person in his eyes?Or did he always see her as despicable?Shirley said to Rupert, "I'm sorry for troubling you this evening, Mr. Rupert, having you personally escort me so late. Now that my husband is here, I can go back with him."This was a family matter, no need for outsiders to meddle.After a brief contemplation, Rupert nodded.Seeing Shirley defend Rupert, Keith's anger surged.In the days he was in Africa, he had been thinking about her like crazy. But the moment he wasn't home, she couldn't stand the loneliness?Went to City F to find Rupert? And kept it from everyone?Keith took

Chapter 260 His Scandal

Shirley paused for a moment, then averted her gaze, "I'm not as despicable as you think. I've never liked Rupert."Keith's eyes flickered with a hint of joy at Shirley's last words, but it quickly disappeared."I didn't discuss it with you because this issue has no solution. Even if I did, you wouldn't be able to solve this deadlock either. I've been to the secret realm of the Moore family, it's a place where outsiders can't step foot. Only the DNA recorded by the Moore family can open the door to the Moore family's secret realm. Do you think acquiring the Moore family will allow you to open that door? No, you can't. My adoptive mother only has three months left to live, maybe even less than three months. The longer it takes, the more her body will deteriorate. Maybe she won't even live long enough for my child to be born." Shirley gently closed her eyes."What can you do by acquiring the Moore family? You probably don't know, do you? The foundation of the Moore family is no longer in
