Chapter 511

Evelyn’s suggestion gave Richard a new lead, and he wasted no time acting on it. Investigating Emma’s past wasn’t difficult. By nightfall, he had compiled her entire background. She was an only child. Her father worked as a bank employee and her mother was a teacher. Her preschool, elementary, middle school, high school, and college years were uneventful.Everything about her life was ordinary until her third year of university. That was when Emma suddenly vanished. For three years, she was completely off the radar. Then, out of nowhere, she resurfaced. Three years?Again, three years?That number—it was the same amount of time Haley had disappeared back when she was still Emily.The overseas trip that Justin had organized, taking Emma and his other graduating classmates along, wasn’t difficult to investigate. Justin hadn’t even bothered to hide it.Everyone within their social circle had known about it, but for those outside of it, access to such informati

Chapter 512

A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the stormy night with a deafening clap of thunder. For a split second, its flash lit up Justin’s face—dark, grim, and foreboding. Something had happened to his mother. *Outside, thunder rumbled violently. "Ahhh!" Emma jolted awake, drenched in sweat, gasping for air. Her wide eyes darted around the dimly lit room. She had a nightmare. She had dreamed of Heidi. In her dream, Heidi had crawled out of a raging river, her body covered in blood—coming for her. Crack! Another lightning strike illuminated the room. Emma’s face turned ghostly pale, her lips bloodless. She wrapped her arms around herself, trembling, her gaze filled with cold hatred. “Heidi Yates… I wasn’t the one who killed you. You did this to yourself. “You should have just stayed out of it. “You should have never opposed my marriage to Justin. “And you should have never come downstairs that night. “If you hadn’t overheard

The next morning, the sky was clear, not a cloud in sight. After getting dressed, Jacob was ready to head to work, leaving Emma behind at home. “I’ll have someone stall things for you at the branch office, so just stay put here and wait for me. This storm will pass soon, and in a few days, I’ll get you reinstated.” Standing in front of the mirror, Jacob straightened his tie, his tone arrogant—completely disregarding the company’s president as if he were nothing more than a minor inconvenience. In the mirror’s reflection, Emma sat behind him, her head slightly lowered, lost in thought. Clearly, she hadn’t been paying attention to a word he had said. Jacob’s expression darkened instantly. He turned abruptly, striding over to her in just a few steps. His fingers clamped around her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze. His voice was sharp, threatening. “Don’t even think about double-crossing me. Like you said, we’re in this together. Justin will never take you back! O

Jacob rarely disregarded her suggestions, but this time, he merely let out a cold scoff before striding out of the room. Emma’s expression darkened as she watched his departing figure, resentment flashing in her eyes. With a loud bang, the door slammed shut behind him. Men and their sweet talk—nice to hear in bed, but the moment she needed them to actually do something, they scattered like cockroaches. Still, bitterness wouldn’t solve her problems. If Jacob was useless, she had to find another way. Grabbing her phone, she scrolled through her contacts, searching for someone with access to the project. *Inside RC Corporation, operations were running smoothly, especially in the marketing department. With a certain someone finally gone, the workload had eased, and the atmosphere had become noticeably more relaxed.“Ugh, that tyrant finally left. We really survived hell. I just feel bad for the people over at the branch office. They’re stuck under Miss Xanader for the r

While Justin was busy reviewing emails from his team, he also took the time to coordinate adjustments with Sam, who was managing things remotely in Merika State.Last night's storm had been relentless, but today, the sky was a flawless shade of blue, as if it had been scrubbed clean by the rain.Haley sat by the floor-to-ceiling window, lazily scrolling through her phone. Every now and then, she glanced outside, her boredom evident. The sunlight grew increasingly harsh, so she reached up and pulled the sheer curtains closed, softening the glare.On the sofa, Justin was fully focused on his work, his attention locked onto the screen. But no matter how she looked at it, Haley found him an eyesore.That sofa was supposed to be hers. She could have been lying there comfortably, playing on her phone. Instead, it had become his personal workspace. Annoying.She had slept soundly the night before, completely unaware that Justin had crept into bed and held her in his arms all night. By mo

Sean was back in the country. A message popped up on her phone: “Where are you now?” Haley sent him the hospital address. Five years ago, neither of them could have imagined that they would end up as friends. Yet, their friendship had lasted all this time. She smiled at the screen before locking her phone. But as soon as she looked up and saw Justin still standing there, her brows furrowed. “Shouldn’t you be handling your work?”Justin’s gaze flicked toward her phone, catching a glimpse of the smile she had just given the screen. She looked happy. Who was she talking to? Wilfred? A sense of unease crept into his chest. *Two hours later, there was a knock at the door. Haley, disregarding the invisible boundary she had drawn earlier, got up and opened it. The moment she saw who it was, her face lit up with a smile. “Sean, you got here so fast! Don’t tell me you came straight from the airport?”“Of course! If I hadn’t stopped to pick up your favor

“Childish tricks,” Justin silently remarked.He was a grown man. He wouldn’t be provoked by such petty games, nor would he waste his energy getting worked up over them. He turned to Haley and commanded with his cold and dark expression, “You’re not allowed to eat his food.” His tone was so authoritative that Haley actually blinked in surprise for a moment. But then she scoffed. “Who does he think he is, telling me who I can or can’t eat with?” she muttered.Sean was her friend—her good friend. He was also Chase and Alex’s god-uncle. What was so wrong about having a meal with him? Without hesitation, she picked up a skewer of grilled meat, took a big bite right in front of Justin’s stormy expression, and let out an exaggerated sigh. “Mmm. Delicious.” Justin’s chest rose and fell sharply, his jealousy barely contained. And Sean, naturally, wasn’t about to let things cool down. “Here, Haley, try this one. Oh—wait, you’ve got something on your lips. Let me w

Chapter 518

Seeing that Justin had nothing more to say, Sean quickly lost interest in arguing. There was no fun in taunting someone who wouldn’t fight back.Under Justin’s watchful gaze, the two finished their lunch. Sean had no plans to linger, so he stood up to leave. Haley got up to walk him out. He had flown all the way from Merika State just to see her, so no matter what, it wouldn’t feel right not to see him off.Just as they reached the door, Justin, who had been silent all this time, suddenly blocked her path. “Stay in the room. I’ll walk him out.”“Justin, stop acting crazy,” Haley warned in a cold voice.Sean cut in before she could say more. “It’s fine, Haley. If he wants to walk me out, let him. I actually have a few things I’d like to say to him too.”Since it was Sean who spoke up, Haley relented. “Alright then, but be careful. If he tries anything, call me, and I’ll send someone down.”She still wasn’t at ease. The difference in their builds was obvious. Sean wasn’t weak,

Haley remained on the balcony, watching until Sean’s car disappeared down the street. Only then did she turn back inside.She then grabbed her phone to send a quick message home, letting them know that Sean had arrived.Just as she hit send, the door swung open.Justin stepped in, his earlier hostility toward Sean nowhere to be seen. He closed the door behind him and walked over to her, his presence noticeably quieter.Haley barely acknowledged him. She spared him a fleeting glance before turning back to her phone, uninterested. Sean had brought her some fruit salad, and since she still had a little room left, she figured she might as well enjoy it. She turned on the TV, settling into her seat comfortably as she snacked.As far as she was concerned, Justin was nothing more than background noise.Justin said nothing at first. He had countless things he wanted to ask, a million thoughts running through his mind, but he already knew that she wouldn’t answer him.In the end, he co

“Look what I got you—a brand-new Ultra Warrior figure!” Sean’s voice was full of excitement as he held up the toy. Alex’s smile faltered for a split second. Could he say he didn’t like them anymore? He had switched to Iron Man now. But not wanting to upset Uncle Sean, he quickly put on his best happy face, beaming up at him. “Thanks, Uncle Sean! It’s my favorite!” Still cradling the toy, he let Sean carry him inside. *The moment Sean stepped through the door of Mistletoe Villa, he greeted warmly, “Aunt Evelyn, I came to see you.” Having known and mentored him for years, Evelyn was naturally familiar with him. “Sean, you’re here! Come in and have a seat.” She motioned for a maid. “Go call Richard and Chase down.” Knowing how much Sean had looked after Haley when she had lost her memory in Haven State, Evelyn had always treated him well. Over the years, she had introduced him to high-profile legal cases, and even hired him as the family’s official legal ad
