"Caden, you've had quite a bit to drink too. Why not crash here tonight and head back tomorrow?"Caden and Walter had been inseparable since childhood, often having sleepovers at each other's places. However, as they grew up, those days became rare.Caden massaged his temples, weighing the odds of a peaceful night's stay…Skipping one night at home would not be a big deal, would it?With that thought, Caden cautiously asked Aria, "I can't remember the last time I crashed here. Mind if I stay over?"Aria chuckled. "Stay if you want to. It's not like it's your first time."She waved over a servant. "Show Mr. Scott to the guest room."After saying goodbye to Caden, Aria headed to Walter's room.The wedding dress photo on the wall caught her eye, and then her gaze fell on her son, who had lost so much weight he was barely recognizable. Her heart ached for him.Evangeline had returned the bracelet to the Gordon family, signaling the end of her engagement with Walter. They were boun

Walter's throat tightened, and he could only muster a weak attempt at comfort. "Hey, what about Caden? He's the one who dropped me off last night, right?"Aria thought back to the servant's update."He was going to crash here and leave in the morning, but some urgent family thing came up, and he had to bolt in the middle of the night."Walter scrunched his brow, puzzled by Caden's sudden departure.After all, Caden was loaded. His family was not exactly waiting on him hand and foot. Plus, his aunt and uncle were the picture of health; they did not need him to run the family business. What was so urgent that he had to dash off?However, with Caden gone, it was actually a relief."Well, if that's the case, I should head out too."Walter started to rise, but Aria held him back. "Walter, it's been ages since you visited your grandpa. You're here now, so maybe... go see him?"Trey was getting on in years, always sitting by himself in the yard, staring into space. That solitude—it ma

"Walter is here? Take a seat." Trey glanced up from his busy work and nodded toward the chair across from him.Walter sat down, steeling himself for the storm of anger he was sure would come from Trey.To his surprise, Trey just fiddled with the ring on his finger and kept on making coffee.It was not until he poured the third batch into a cup and set it in front of Walter that he finally said, "Walter, give the coffee a try. I've been working on his brewing skills. Notice any improvement?"'Grandpa had called him over with such urgency just to... taste coffee?'With Trey looking on expectantly, Walter picked up the cup with a puzzled look and took a cautious sip.He was not exactly a coffee connoisseur. He ate merely to fuel his body, to keep up with the demanding pace of work at Gordon Group.The coffee swirled on his tongue, but Walter, being no expert, could not pick up any hint of sweetness or a pleasant aftertaste, just a strong bitterness that made him instinctively frown

'Suffering in silence.' That old saying was the only thing that came to Walter's mind.It was spot-on for his situation.The mess with Julia was exactly that—a whole lot of hurt he just could not put into words."Why so quiet?"Trey eyed Walter's silence and decided to break the ice."You've been away from the old house for ages. You even dodged me at Mr. Foster's funeral, sneaking in to pay your respects when I wasn't around. Here we are, finally face-to-face, and you're giving me the silent treatment?"Walter's skin crawled under Trey's offbeat interrogation. "It's not that, I just... don't know what to say, that's all.""Well, you might be at a loss for words, but I've got something to say to you."Trey's warm smile faded into a more serious expression as he reached into the coffee table drawer and pulled out a box.It was an old wooden box, ornately carved and clearly well-crafted.Walter knew that box all too well.Back when the Fosters threw a birthday bash for Evangel
