Chapter 121: Why Do You Have The Same Voice Like My Son?

Valentine Anderson's furious retort echoed through the busy supermarket, "Why do you want to replace me when I am still alive?"Mrs. Anderson and Benita, caught in the middle of their shocked reactions, turned to face him. The man who stood before them is Valentine Anderson, but he bore no resemblance to the Valentine they knew.The shock on Benita and Mrs. Anderson’s faces was palpable, deepening even more for Mrs. Anderson who recognized the face as the visitor from the previous night.Margret Willow swiftly moved to Valentine Anderson's side, his expression one of deep gloom. "Mrs. Anderson, we meet again," she greeted, a smile playing on her lips.The spell of surprise was broken. Benita found her voice first. "Hello, sir. Do you know my brother? Do you know where he is? Is he alive?" she asked, her voice laced with anxiety.Before the visibly angry Valentine Anderson could utter a word, Margret Willow interjected, "Your brother and my husband were as close as brothers. We refuse

Chapter 122: He Is Valentine Anderson

Mrs. Willow's expression turned grave upon receiving the news, but her demeanor remained poised. Without a hint of panic, she issued her instructions, "I will be on my way. Delay the board members from convening; tell our allies to push the meeting back by twenty minutes.""Consider it done, Mrs. Willow," came the assured reply from her personal assistant on the other end of the line.After ending the call, Mrs. Willow faced Valentine Anderson. "We must head back as soon as possible."Valentine Anderson had not intended to listen in on her conversation, but the caller's voice had boomed so loudly that it had been impossible to ignore from where he sat.Recognizing the urgency, Valentine wasted no time. Together, they quickly checked out of the hotel room and secured their departure by booking the earliest flight. En route to the airport, Valentine gave one last look back at the cityscape of Vegas, unsure of when he might return.His hands balled into fists, a fierce resolve etched on

Chapter 123:  Mrs. Anderson And Benita Visit

As Andrea stared blankly she fell silent with her phone clasped in her hand, she was too submerged in a whirlwind of thoughts to acknowledge Tony's inquiries."Andrea, are you there?" Tony's voice, laced with concern, broke through the speaker.Jolted back to reality, Andrea replied hastily, "Yes, where is he, Tony?""We need to meet. Where are you?" Tony pressed, sidestepping her question."At home, come over," Andrea said, her voice a mix of urgency and confusion.With a sharp click, Tony ended the call. Left alone, Andrea perched on the edge of her bed, her expression one of bewilderment. The man she met a few days ago who looks nothing like Valentine Anderson at her gate—could it really be Valentine Anderson? She doubted it; the Valentine she knew would have reacted strongly when she saw her with Lucas because she was sure Valentine Anderson was an emotional man.Engrossed in her thoughts, she didn't notice Housekeeper Win's gentle knock. It was only when Win entered the room, co

Chapter 124: Have You Fallen In Love With Lucas Anderson?

As Andrea processed Tony's suggestion, her body slumped weakly into the chair. The prospect of meeting Valentine Anderson stirred a whirlwind of apprehension within her, even though a part of her longed for the encounter."I get it, Andrea, you're scared," Tony said, reading the hesitation in her posture. "But you've got to tell him everything. There's no wrongdoing on your part, no reason for guilt. Don't shy away from meeting him; he'll understand why you had to bring Lucas Anderson back."Andrea responded only with silence, the weight of the decision to meet Valentine or not pressing heavily upon her."Andrea..." Tony's voice was gentle, prompting her to voice her thoughts.With a rueful sigh, Andrea admitted, "Tony, I can't pinpoint when I'll be ready to see him."Tony's face lit up with a hopeful smile as he pressed, "Why don't we set a date then?"But Andrea, not ready to commit, waved off the suggestion. "Let's not rush this."Although reluctant, Tony nodded in agreement; his e

Chapter 125: A Difficult Choice To Make

Andrea fell into a deep thought; she didn't know if her hesitation to meet Valentine Anderson was because she was afraid of being misunderstood or unwilling to let go of Lucas."Andrea," Agatha's voice broke through her reverie as she failed to respond to her earlier inquiry.Shaking off her introspection, Andrea turned to Agatha and declared, "Agatha, I haven't fallen for Lucas. I will go and meet Valentine. I entrust the company to you in my absence."With that, Andrea rose from her seat and swiftly departed, leaving Agatha in stunned silence.As Andrea exited her office and closed the door behind her, a somber expression clouded her face. At the far end of the corridor, Tony emerged from the exclusive elevator, making his way towards Andrea's office.When their gazes locked, Andrea's facial expression remained inscrutable. Tony approached her cautiously, then spoke apologetically as he drew near, "Andrea, I'm sorry I asked Agatha to speak with you.""It's irrelevant. We're leaving

Chapter 126: Valentine And Andrea Meet

Housekeeper Win, her face weary with sleep, was jolted awake by the unexpected sight of Tony in the living-room. Glancing at the clock and noting it was just 5 A.M., her worry creased her forehead and she asked with an anxious tone, "Tony, is everything alright?"Tony offered a shake of his head in reassurance and replied, "Yeah, Andrea and I are heading out to Cardiff today."Housekeeper Win's speech faltered as relief washed over her. She had braced herself for a dire emergency, not a mere journey.Cautiously, she ventured a guess. "Tony, are you off to Cardiff to propose to a special someone?" It was the only rationale she could muster for his pre-dawn readiness."No, there's no one like that in Cardiff for me. And please, don't mention to Andrea that I'm here. I'll wait for her to wake up," Tony said, taking Housekeeper Win aback as he settled into a chair with a nonchalant air.He flicked on the television and began to leisurely flip through the news channels, crossing his legs a

Chapter 127: Denying His Identity

Andrea opened her mouth and called out softly, "Val."Valentine Anderson pretended not to hear her and replied, "Mrs. Andrea Singers, my secretary informed me you wanted to meet with me. What can I do for you?"Andrea stiffened, her shock evident as she recognized the voice of Valentine Anderson, though the face before her belonged to Pascal Willow. Her eyes reddened with the realization that her husband she believed to be deceased was indeed alive. She had harbored doubts, but now there was no question in her mind."Valentine," Andrea said, her voice choked with emotion and her eyes brimming with tears.Tony, who had been ready to excuse himself to give them privacy, froze when he heard Valentine Anderson deny his identity. "Mrs. Singers, I understand you miss your husband, but you can't just address anyone as Valentine," he said, causing Tony's frown to deepen at this unexpected denial.Ignoring the tension, Valentine Anderson casually walked to a chair, sat down, and reclined. "Mrs

Chapter 128: Lucas Meets Valentine

Although Tony was displeased with Andrea's decision, there was nothing he could change; he silently resented Valentine Anderson for being so shallow and short-sighted.Together, they boarded a private jet and made their way back to Vegas City, parting ways at the airport.Upon Andrea's arrival at home in the early morning, she stepped out of the car to a heartwarming scene. Pete and a handful of neighborhood children were gleefully playing in the playground that Lucas Anderson had recently constructed.Andrea couldn't help but smile at the sight of Pete's joy. For the six years he had been with her, her busy schedule meant Pete had rarely played outside, leading him to grow up without friends.Housekeeper Win noticed Andrea and greeted her with a warm smile, approaching with news that brightened Andrea's mood even further. "Sir did something remarkable. He managed to persuade the neighborhood children to come over and play with young master Pete," she explained.Andrea was taken aback

Chapter 129: Brother

When Lucas Anderson caught sight of Valentine Anderson's arrival, a smile lit up his face. However, to his surprise, the convoy suddenly stopped, and Valentine Anderson stepped out of one of the cars, his expression impatient as he questioned, "Why are there people at the gate?"One of the security team members promptly responded, "Boss, there is a refugee here who claims he has an appointment with you.""Get rid of him; this isn't a charity center," Valentine Anderson snapped impatiently.From the moment he exited the car and finished his discussion with the security team, he didn't utter a word or even glance in Lucas Anderson's direction.As Valentine Anderson was about to get back into his car, Lucas Anderson called out urgently, "Valentine, brother"Valentine’s reaction was a momentary pause followed by a cold glare. "I am not your brother, don't call me that. My name is Pascal Willow," he said through clenched teeth, his expression dark with anger. With that, he climbed back int

Chapter 130: Who Are You Married To?

The moment Valentine Anderson caught sight of Margret Willow striding into his office instead of his secretary, his shoulders slumped and he sank back into his chair, a portrait of sheer frustration.Without offering Margret a moment to take a seat, he launched into his impatient inquiry, "Meg, how much longer before we can jet off to Vegas City and make those cheaters pay for what they did to me?"Raising an eyebrow, Margret teased, "Feeling jealous, are you?"Valentine's expression soured at the insinuation. "Jealous? No, I'm furious. After all their attempts to have me killed, now they're playing house like some storybook family."Margret let out a chuckle before probing further, "So, you're over Andrea Singers, then?"Hearing that name made Valentine's face darken further. He spat out his words with disdain, "Meg, can you not repeat that name? It's nauseating and drives me up the wall."Margret raised her hands in a gesture of mock surrender but then her tone turned serious, "List
