Bruce scanned the garage. He needed to see Archibald about finding out who wanted to kill him but Jade's car keys were missing. Having a feeling that he might have dropped it in the garage, he decided to search the garage for the key."The silver car belongs to Jade, right? We'd make him use it." Bruce heard a familiar voice say and his interest was piqued."Mother, are you sure this would work out?"Mother? Bruce thought to himself. The voice was a masculine one and it sounded like Cole's voice.Bruce quickly hid behind one of the cars in the garage. They were both up to something and he needed to find out."He'd get into an accident if the brake fails. That'll be enough."Lucia was the one who had spoken and it made Bruce wonder who they were referring to. Bruce had a hutch. He shook his head at the thought that nudged at him.The Fultons hated him, but he did not think they'd go too far."That'll also be enough to kill him. Remember, the plan was to make his life so miserable that

"W—what do you know?" Cole asked, stuttering."We should be glad Bruce hadn't gotten into the accident," Lucia said. "However, I still feel Bruce was being disrespectful and disobedient to me and his father-in-law. This is a red flag, but alas, his bad behavior saved him, so I just feel neutral. Who knows if Cole is right? The way he refused to see his father-in-law. It's almost like he knew that the brakes would fail.""Mother-in-law," Bruce called out in a mocking tone. "You would have preferred if I had used the car and gotten into an accident, right? It's almost like it had been your plan all along.""Are you saying that I tampered with Jade's car and tried to make you use it so you can get into an accident and die?" Lucia sounded annoyed."Well, that sounds logical," Bruce replied and Lucia clenched her fists.She turned to Jade. "How would I love a son-in-law that accuses me falsely of a despicable act?""This is really not the time for this banter," Jade pointed out. "They're

"No. No way. It can't be." Jade shook her head. "I can never be given birth to by a murder.""You confirmed that the bracelet belongs to your mother yourself," Bruce pointed out and Jade shook her head frantically."This is all a misunderstanding. There must be a valid reason and it excludes that she had left the bracelet after tampering with my car. I'd ask her myself.""You should carry out more investigation," Bruce said."I know what my mother can do. She's heavily flawed, but she can never try to kill anyone."Bruce pitied her. When the trust is too much, the heartbreak would equally be as much.Bruce wondered if he should save Jade from the incoming heartbreak and bear everything alone."What if she turns out to be the one who had tampered with your car?" Bruce asked and Jade had a distant look on her face.After a while of silence, Jade answered; "she isn't. I'd go to her and ask why her bracelet is in my car."Jade left to meet her mother and Bruce followed suit."Darling," Lu

Bruce stood up to his feet. "Good day, sir," he greeted.Without saying acknowledging his greetings. Mr. Fulton pulled a chair and sat on it. "I don't have time for pleasantries. I would just go straight to the point and take my leave."Bruce, who found the situation rather awkward, could do nothing but sit back. "Okay. Why was this meeting called?""I hate the fact that my daughter chose you as her husband," Mr. Fulton began. "The damage has been done already, so I have no choice but to accept you. However, before I will, you must get yourself a good job. I don't want a house husband for my girl who does nothing but sit around at home waiting for his wife's family to put food on his table.""So you want me to get a job.""Yes and not just any job. A good one. You are neither a graduate or a skilled fellow, but I care less. You must get a good job and you must get that job without the help of my daughter.""If that's what it'll take to get accepted by you then it's a deal," Bruce said

"Dad, he got in because of Mr. Carter," Jade said with an eye roll."Mr. Carter?" Mr. Fulton's interest was piqued."Yes, Mr. Carter. You know Mr. Archibald Carter, the COO of AAB groups. He owes Bruce one for saving his relative from getting harassed by a lout," Jade replied.Cole furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. He remembered the night he fought with Bruce. He knew the girl he was harassing and he knew that she was in no way related to Mr. Carter.Why on Earth would someone related to Mr. Archibald Carter, COO of AAB groups, works in a bar, earning a meager salary? If Mr. Carter would give someone who had helped his relative a good job, then why didn't he give his relative a better job?‘I have to find out why my sister would say this,’ Cole thought to himself. He wondered if that was what Bruce told her. He glanced at Bruce. Bruce was hiding something and he had to find out what it was. "Are you sure the girl you saved from Mr. Carter is his relative? I don't think you're capab
