Chapter 1591

Ben’s expression seemed off. Jamie paused subtly, her gaze shifting toward his phone. “What is it? Is it something about the old district?” “No,” Ben replied, setting the phone down quickly to keep her from seeing the screen. After that, he refused to discuss it further. Jamie resisted the urge to press him in front of Charlie, opting to hold her questions until later. Once Charlie had wandered off to play, she seized the moment. “You didn’t seem yourself earlier during dinner. If it’s work-related and there’s anything I can do to help, just let me know,” she offered. After all, she was his secretary now, and it was only natural for her to assist. Jamie brushed aside the faint unease tugging at her and convinced herself it was nothing. But Ben didn’t seem inclined to talk. Rubbing his temples, he stood up. “I’ve stayed long enough. I should head out.” When Jamie moved to see him off, he stopped her. Watching him leave, Jamie didn’t feel the relief she expecte

“I’m going back to the Lucas family home today.” “It might be a misunderstanding. It doesn’t necessarily mean it was your father,” Jamie said cautiously. Ben interrupted her, his expression unnervingly calm. It was the kind of calm that felt dangerous. Jamie could sense a storm brewing, but she didn’t know how to comfort him. In situations like this, no words ever felt right. Fortunately, Ben seemed to notice her unease. His voice softened, just barely, as he said, “So, you’ll need to tell Charlie that I won’t be able to see him for a while.” “I’ll go with you,” Jamie blurted out, surprising even herself. But in the next moment, her resolve solidified. “Charlie can be picked up by the nanny, or we can bring him home first and go afterward. Either way, I’m going with you,” she said firmly. “This is different from last time.” “Exactly. That’s why I need to go with you.” Ben stared at her for a long moment before sighing. Finally, he gave in. *That after

Chapter 1593

Ben didn’t back down. Instead, he lifted his gaze and said coldly, “Wasn’t it you? Or are you saying you did it but don’t even have the courage to admit it?” Seeing how enraged his father was, Ben’s face remained calm, though his heart was heavy. When he first uncovered the truth, he could hardly believe it. Though their father-son relationship had always been distant, Ben had assumed that, as family, his father wouldn’t stoop to such underhanded tactics. Yet this incident slapped him in the face with harsh reality. It told him he was wrong. “You—” His father was so furious he started coughing violently. Ben’s mother, caught between the two, looked panicked. She hurried to comfort her husband while trying to get Ben to stop. “Don’t say any more. Your father has high blood pressure. He’ll make himself ill.” Jamie noticed Ben’s fists clenching tightly. Without thinking, she reached out and placed her hand over his, a silent gesture of reassurance. The tension in Ben’

Jamie turned her head sharply, stunned by what she had just heard. The look in Ben’s eyes was more serious than she had ever seen before. His words weren’t casual. They came from the depths of his heart, and anyone could tell they were genuine. Mrs. Lucas watched the scene unfold, her emotions a mix of complexity and relief. A few years ago, she never would have imagined that someone she once dismissed could not only gain Ben’s acceptance but also hers. It was clear now that Jamie was not just anyone. She was important to her son. But not everyone shared their sentiment. Mr. Lucas frowned as his critical gaze swept over Jamie. He turned to Ben, his tone full of disapproval. “So, this is the reason you’ve rejected all those other women? What’s so great about her? Her family background doesn’t match yours, and her career is nothing special.” Ben’s eyes narrowed. “Have you planted someone in the company to keep tabs on me?” Otherwise, there was no way his semi-retired

Chapter 1595

Jamie had a habit of waking up in the middle of the night. When she stepped into the dimly lit living room, the faint silhouette of someone startled her. She froze for a moment before realizing it was Ben. “Ben, why are you sitting here instead of sleeping?” Ben let out a low grunt, his voice so faint she thought she had imagined it. As Jamie approached, the sheen of sweat on his forehead and his unusually pale face came into view. “Are you feeling unwell?” she asked, her tone laced with concern. “Could you get me some antacid?” Ben replied, his voice carrying a subtle weakness that was uncharacteristic for him. It clicked. Ben had always struggled with stomach issues. His workaholic lifestyle often made it worse. Her worry spiked. She paced the living room, trying to recall where she might have stored some medicine. “Wait here. I think I have some in my room.” She hurried back, returning moments later with the medication and a cup of warm water. Ben took the me

He must have been utterly heartbroken.“Alright, I’ll stay with you,” Jamie relented, her heart softening.It was just staying with a sick person for one night. If Ben didn’t get better, he probably wouldn’t be able to make it to the office the next day anyway.Hearing her agreement, Ben’s grip on her hand loosened slightly. Jamie kept her word, settling on the sofa beside him and draping a blanket over herself. Through the quiet night, Ben’s hand never let go of hers. By the time dawn broke, they were still holding on to each other, as if that touch alone could ward off the pain and keep the world at bay. *The next morning, Jamie was woken by the sound of movement.She opened her eyes to find herself still lying on the sofa. Instinctively, she glanced to her side, but the spot was already empty.The helper entered with breakfast.“Do you know where the man who was here went?” Jamie asked.The helper, who had likely arrived early, looked slightly startled. “He left ea

Wilfred's gaze turned meaningful. "This friend of yours, he wouldn’t happen to be named Ben Lucas and work as a lawyer, would he?"Jamie averted her eyes, feeling caught. It was awkward to have him guess correctly, but thankfully, Wilfred didn’t press further. He simply gave her the advice she needed and added a warning. “Tell Ben to tone down his workaholic tendencies. If he keeps pushing like this, even the best doctors won’t be able to save him.” After parting ways with Wilfred, Jamie headed to the hospital room. The patient, Mrs. Lopez, was sixty-five years old. At her age, suffering from heart disease was highly dangerous. One wrong move could lead to a heart attack, which was why Lucas Corporation had gone to great lengths to ensure her care. They had arranged for the best room and covered her medical expenses. Given these efforts, Jamie couldn’t help but feel that the man causing such chaos earlier was unbelievably ungrateful. “I’m here to see Mrs. Lopez. Has

Chapter 1598

Jamie reluctantly suppressed her thoughts and focused on resolving immediate concerns. Her first priority was arranging a caregiver for Mrs. Lopez at the hospital. After ensuring Mrs. Lopez would be well cared for, she turned her attention to the police station.The instigator of the old district riot, Daniel Lopez, was still in custody, serving a one-month sentence.Back at the company, Jamie sought out Ben. Before he could say a word, she launched into her thoughts. “I believe Daniel is being manipulated by someone behind the scenes.” Daniel, the ringleader, had incited most of the others to cause trouble. Ben raised an eyebrow but remained silent. It was obvious he shared the same suspicion. The sequence of events seemed far too deliberate. The dissatisfaction of the holdouts, Mrs. Lopez’s sudden illness, and the escalation of the conflict all felt perfectly orchestrated. It was as if everything was being guided by an unseen hand.Jamie succinctly relayed what she had

Jamie asked the assistant for the family’s information. The assistant looked surprised. “What do you need this for?” She casually made up an excuse. After getting the address, she quickly took a cab to the family’s home. They lived in an old building in the rundown part of town. Most of the buildings there were slated for demolition. The walls were peeling, and everything looked aged beyond repair. Even the doors were heavy iron ones. Jamie knocked on the door. A woman’s voice called out from inside, “Who is it?” Jamie waited patiently. Soon, a woman in an apron opened the door. The stranger’s face filled her with suspicion. Jamie held up a box of milk and some fruit she had bought on the way. She smiled warmly. “Community outreach program. Here to bring you some care packages.”That was enough to get the woman to open the door. Holding the gifts, the woman softened. Her face relaxed into a smile. “We haven’t had something like this in ages! Is everyone in the

Jamie frowned. “Aren’t you getting it backwards? Haven’t you been the ones pushing us into a corner all this time?” The woman stiffened and retorted sharply, “That’s because we have no choice but to protect ourselves.” Perhaps she had been holding her son too tightly, because the boy squirmed and mumbled, “Mom, you’re hurting me.” The woman quickly loosened her grip, her face flushed with guilt. “I’m sorry, Hugo.” The boy rubbed her arm gently and replied in his soft, sweet voice, “It’s okay, Mommy. I forgive you.” Her son’s reassurance seemed to calm her nerves. Seizing the moment, Jamie said, “I think there’s a misunderstanding between us.” “What misunderstanding? Are you going to deny that Mrs. Lopez ended up in the hospital because of you? You people, with your wealth and power, could crush us with no effort,” the woman sneered. So it came down to this, just as Jamie had anticipated. Fortunately, she was prepared. Before leaving the hospital, she had obta
