I looked at the phone, and there was new information. It stated that Harmony had acute cholecystitis. Even the attending physician had given an interview.Atlas had successfully removed me from this incident entirely. It was clear he intended to show the world that Harmony was ill, with no connection to me.I couldn’t understand why he would go to such lengths. Why did he bring me to the hospital if he didn’t want anyone to know we were connected? Was it really necessary to conceal my medical condition and change the doctor?It seemed like an inconsequential detail. What would it matter if everyone knew about my illness? It wasn’t even really an illness, just a case of amnesia.I paused. Could this be related to my amnesia? No, it couldn't be.My mind was filled with surreal images, various versions of what I might have missed as a child. There were pictures of Annalise and Stella, scenes from when I fell off a motorcycle, and more…Those images were strange, and they gave me a s

I started to feel nervous. His eyes were bottomless as he scrutinized my expression."Ms. Chloe, for Ivanna, I will do everything in my power," he stated, with no unnecessary words.Although it sounded concise, coming from a man of Jared's stature, it held weight."Are you willing to let go?" I persisted."I never once thought of letting her go," he affirmed firmly.I felt moved. Such words, especially when spoken by someone like Jared, were a powerful tool for touching a woman's heart.What more was there to ask? I had intended to ask if he could keep that promise, but how could I even ask such a question to a man like him?I coolly stated, "Honestly, your answer doesn't satisfy me. These words may be significant to you, but they appear superficial. Everything can change in the blink of an eye, especially in Trinity's case. "Perhaps one day I will ask you to protect Ivanna's life, but you might not be able to. Even if Ivanna is willing to give her life for you, I am not willi

Ava's questions surprised me, and I responded vaguely before quickly getting up, "Ava, Mommy doesn't have time to take you today. You can take a walk to the kindergarten with grandma, okay?”"Mommy, when will you get home? When are we going to the island?" Ava slid off her chair and approached me excitedly.I knew I couldn't make promises, or she’d question me endlessly. I almost slapped myself for bringing it up. Even if we were going, I should’ve kept it a surprise. But now, I couldn’t fulfill my promise. I had to make it happen no matter what, or I would let my family down.I looked at her excited expression and thought before saying, “We’ll go when I return from Solaris, okay?”I thought taking my parents on vacation would be perfect since Matthew derailed our plans last time. Afterward, I put my small suitcase in the trunk and said goodbye to Ava before leaving for work.However, I saw someone standing at the neighborhood entrance. The woman appeared much skinnier since I las

Grace knelt at the gate and reached through it as she waved at my daughter. “Ava, come here! Ava…”Even my deepest grudges vanished at that moment. After all, Grace was an elderly woman who had a troubled life. Now, she had to face such a thing in her old age. Still, someone had to be responsible for causing this tragedy.I felt a tear in my eye as I turned away and gulped. I noticed Ava retreating while Grace cried, “Ava, please come here. Don’t you want to see your grandma?”She appeared frantic, looking around as if seeking help to get inside. I could no longer bear it and approached the gate. Ava saw me and called out, “Mommy!”She let go of my mom’s hand but didn’t run toward me. Perhaps she was scared, or Grace’s changed appearance made Ava think she was a stranger.When I reached Grace, I reassured her, “Don’t worry. I’ll talk to her first, okay?”Grace looked at me tearfully as I spoke.Meanwhile, my mom softly spoke to Ava, presumably encouraging her to come over. I kne

Bourdamun was a neighboring city to Muborough. However, the former’s economy couldn’t match Muborough. Although close, Bourdamun lacked a coastline, which slowed its development.Matthew hadn’t taken projects in Bourdamun in recent years because of its sluggish development. I hadn't even considered anything in Bourdamun. A client from there visited today, and I was curious to learn about it.Jeremiah smiled sincerely, but his words were doubtful. He said, “Yes, we’re in the development business. I heard Tanum Corporation’s interior design and construction are leading in Foswood. I’ve always wanted to work with you, but the timing was never right.I smiled calmly and responded, “That’s an overstatement, Mr. Jeremiah. Tanum Corporation is just an ordinary company. It’s been a rough year, so I wouldn’t dare claim it’s leading in anything.“We do our best to uphold honesty and quality to satisfy our clients. Do you have any ongoing construction projects?” I didn’t want to stall. Instea
