“Sis!” Helen burst into the room like a whirlwind, pushing the door open. “Mom just called! Hurry and use my phone to call her back. I told her you were out with Al—” The word “Alex” was about to slip out when her eyes caught sight of Justin standing nearby. She quickly corrected herself. “I told her you were out with the little one. I didn’t mention your injury, so hurry up and call her back before she gets suspicious.” Helen spoke quickly, barely stopping for breath. Justin’s hand, holding a box, stiffened mid-air. It was a brand-new phone—a gift for Haley. He had been just about to give it to her. The atmosphere turned awkward. She had been in the middle of rejecting him when Helen barged in. Haley didn’t want a phone from Justin. She was afraid he would install a tracking device in it. Besides, accepting gifts from someone always comes with strings attached. Taking Helen’s phone, she didn’t immediately dial. Instead, she said, “Buy me a new phone and replace

Chase sat nearby, glancing at his uncle. Was he really not afraid that Helen would come back and make him pay for this? Richard smirked. “Afraid? Please. She’s tattled on me to Mom plenty of times. Consider this payback.”Huh? His eyes suddenly narrowed at a suspicious transaction.* Meanwhile, back in the hospital room, Zac and Haley were brainstorming solutions. “What’s done is done. Let’s focus on fixing it. What does your mom like? We’ll go buy something for her now.” As her future son-in-law, he couldn’t show up empty-handed. It was also time for him to have a proper conversation with her family about their marriage. Depending on Helen’s mood, they could even set a date to meet. “You and Zac should just go out, clear your head, and buy whatever you like. Don’t forget to pick up a phone for me while you’re at it—and get Mom a little something, maybe some specialty gifts or diamond jewelry. Once you see her, say a few nice words, soften her up, and this will all blo

Justin lowered his gaze slightly, then walked over and handed his phone to Haley. “Is there anything you want to buy? The password is six fives, same for the bank card.” He really was clueless when it came to women. For the past few days, all he had done was set up the TV for her, completely forgetting that online shopping could have helped pass the time. “Does your mother like diamond? There’s a jewelry auction next month—I’ll take you. Pick whatever you like, and I’ll pay for it.” He was trying so hard to do something right, but no matter what, there would always be gaps in his efforts. “You don’t have to do this.” Haley looked at him, her expression unreadable. “You saved me. I should be grateful. How could I spend your money?” Her voice was calm, but distant. “You’ve taken care of me these past few days, and I truly appreciate it. But I’m doing much better now. I don’t need anyone looking after me anymore.“You’re busy with work. You should go back to th

Evelyn had specifically named her and Zac to pick her up. She had arrived too fast. Helen hadn’t even had time to mentally prepare. Now, she sat in the car, wearing a face of pure misery, completely silent. And it was all Richard’s fault! That big-mouthed traitor! His mouth was looser than an old woman’s baggy sweatpants!He just had to spill everything. Zac squeezed her hand, comforting her. “Relax. I’m the one being evaluated here. What are you so nervous about?” His impression of Evelyn was still based on five years ago, when she and Helen had visited the hospital while Haley was sick. Back then, she carried an air of authority, but overall, she had seemed kind and easygoing. Helen turned to look at Zac, watching him focus on driving—completely unaware of the reality that was about to hit him. She silently mourned for him. Outside of her role as a mother, Evelyn was the one person in their family that no one dared to cross. Even Wilfred—the stron

By the time the car pulled into Mistletoe Villa, it was already 2 a.m. In just two more hours, the sun would rise. Evelyn stepped out of the backseat, while Helen waved goodbye to Zac. “Come here.” Evelyn’s voice was cold and composed. “Oh.” Helen quickly responded, obediently walking over to her mother’s side. Just as they were about to head inside, she suddenly remembered something. “Mom, we bought gifts for you! Zac, hurry and bring them over.” Zac hesitated for a brief moment. Now wasn’t the best time. Evelyn might be speaking politely, but there was still a distant formality in her demeanor. It would be better to wait until they had spent more time together—then the gift would have a stronger effect. But since his wife had spoken, he had no choice but to listen. He opened the trunk, took out the carefully chosen presents, and brought them over. Evelyn glanced at them briefly but made no move to accept them. Nor did she signal for the guard

Helen muttered under her breath, “We’re legally married.” Evelyn shot her a sharp glare. One look. That was all it took to shut Helen up. She immediately lowered her head in silence. “If he’s not willing to come, then he’s not fit to be my son-in-law.” Evelyn declared coldly. Helen didn’t hesitate. She yanked out her phone and quickly said, “I’ll call him right now. He’ll be here at seven sharp.” Only then did Evelyn seem satisfied. She followed the housekeeper upstairs, first checking on Chase and Alex, who were still sound asleep in the children’s room. Then, she returned to the room that had already been prepared for her. *Downstairs, Helen was grumbling the entire time as she reluctantly dialed Zac’s number. Turns out, he had just gotten home—but despite the late hour, he agreed to the seven a.m. pickup without a single complaint. The call ended, and Helen muttered bitterly, “She won’t take gifts, but she sure doesn’t hesitate to order people around.”

“Mom?” Haley was stunned for a second before her face lit up with joy. Evelyn stepped into the room. Oh, this was rich. One man had tricked her younger daughter into marriage.The other was lingering in her elder daughter's hospital room.What a pair of great ‘brothers’ indeed. “Hi, Mrs. Walker. It's great to finally meet you.”Justin, usually so composed, felt a rare flicker of nervousness in front of Evelyn.This was Haley’s mother, after all.Evelyn barely spared him a glance before replying, her voice cold.“I’m pretty sure our family doesn’t feel the same way.”The very first thing she said, and she had already put him in his place.It was clear just how unwelcome he was in her eyes. Seeing Justin completely shut down, Zac quietly laughed to himself. Finally. Finally, someone else had to experience his mother-in-law’s wrath. Why should he be the only one suffering? Justin opened his mouth but immediately shut it again, his voice stuck in his thro

“I don’t want a stake in the market,” Justin said firmly. “If Haley wants, I can transfer all my shares in the Merikan medical company to her immediately.“I can also give her my shares in RC Corporation.” As if one company wasn’t enough, he added another. “Cough—cough!” Zac had just taken a sip of water when he nearly choked at Justin’s words. Was he copying me? Did he really think this move would work on Haley? Zac had his doubts. Haley’s expression remained unreadable. She only blinked once before looking away. Helen, on the other hand, gawked. Fifty percent of the Merikan medical company’s shares? Plus shares in RC Corporation? That was an insane amount of money. With that kind of wealth as backing, their family’s power in Ostland State could double overnight. Wouldn’t that make them as rich as an entire country?As for the remaining fifty percent of the medical company’s shares?Of course, they were in her hands.Zac had already transferred

Chapter 509

At Mistletoe Villa, Evelyn stepped out of the car and made her way straight to Richard’s study.Inside, Richard sat at his desk, staring at his computer screen, his frown deepening the longer he looked.Every single one of Emma’s transactions—big or small—checked out. The numbers all lined up perfectly.So where was the problem? A knock on the door. “Come in.” It was Evelyn. She had come alone—Helen wasn’t with her. “What have you found?” she asked, getting straight to the point. Richard sighed, his expression troubled. “Mom, we’ve hit a dead end.“The one who made the attempt was just a low-level gun-for-hire, someone lurking on the outskirts of the underworld. Based on exposed skin and height comparisons, he’s most likely from Southeast Atlantis.“But as for the person who hired him?” Richard shook his head. “Still no leads. We’ve lost the trail.” His brows furrowed even deeper. They still hadn’t identified the one behind the attack on his sister. For the fi

“We’ve looked into it before. She was Justin’s first love, his so-called ‘dream girl’ back in college,” Richard said dismissively. Just mentioning her name made his expression darken with disgust. His sister had been nothing more than Emma’s stand-in for three whole years—all while she had lost her memory. Disgusting. Those two were the absolute worst. Evelyn, however, remained unfazed. “Since we’ve hit a dead end, let’s go deeper into Emma’s past.” “Got it, Mom.” *“Grandma? Grandma, where are you?” A soft voice echoed through the hallway. From the moment Alex woke up this morning, he had been excited to finally see his grandma. But when he got up, she was already gone—off to the hospital with Zac. He had waited all day, peeking at the door every chance he got. And now, finally, she was home. Evelyn paused mid-conversation, turned, and opened the door. Before stepping out, she looked over her shoulder at Richard. “Be patient. Pay attention to
