"No, this is impossible." Adison shook her head. She could not accept the reality of what was before her eyes. It was so obvious that she tried to close her eyes. "You couldn't have lied to me. Something must be wrong."Adison still didn't want to believe what she saw. She firmly believed that Carson was just a useless young man. There was no way Carson could be a high-ranking officer in the military, let alone a general. Carson had only been in the military for a few years, so it was impossible for him to be one of the higher-ups, let alone become a general. That was even more absurd.Whatever Adison saw, even with her own eyes. Adison would not accept anything. If it was related to Carson. Especially if it was related to Carson's achievements. If it was bad news about Carson, she swallowed the information whole.Adison was very excited when asked to destroy Carson's mother's gravestone. She had disliked Carson since childhood. When she destroyed Carson's mother's gravestone, she and

Vivian was already in the building where the bidding was to take place. She looked up. She could see a huge building—one of the most significant buildings in the city of Springvale. She was very excited. Vivian double-checked what she had to bring in there. When she felt she had enough, she began to step inside. "Be encouraged." George provides support. Vivian nodded and began to step inside. She was going up to the twelfth floor, where the meeting was held. She took the elevator because taking the stairs was too inconvenient. As she entered, two other people joined her. Vivian pressed the button to stop at the twelfth floor. She waited a few minutes before the elevator doors finally opened. The two people who came with her got out. Vivian also got out of the elevator. She walked and found where the auction was being held. "This is the moment I've been waiting for," Vivian said. She stepped up with vigor. She was so excited that Vivian couldn't stop smiling. The place was very lu

At Alison's grandmother's house, the atmosphere was filled with happiness because all they knew was that they had gotten everything they wanted. The villa was luxurious, and they were qualified to participate in the construction of the general's new company. They had even prepared a party to celebrate all this. Today's atmosphere was also very sunny. Nora felt the gentle warmth of the sunlight, which was half covered by clouds. She sat on the spacious front porch, surrounded by colourful flowerpots filled with spring flowers in bloom. The cool, fresh air caressed her wrinkled face, adding happiness to the afternoon atmosphere. The large trees provided pleasant shade.However, the tranquillity was suddenly interrupted by the ringing of the phone, which pierced into her aged eardrums. Nora frowned. She felt this was too soon. Vivian should be at the auction right now, but now she was calling."Hello?" Grandma Alison's voice sounded calm, although it was a bit hesitant. Her heart beat 0

Alison, Carson, and Paula were already in the house. Paula was in the kitchen. She was doing something there. Meanwhile, Alison and Carson were in the living room. They are sitting down. Alison looked uneasy. Soon, Nora would be there. This made her tremble. She was so scared. Carson saw that, and he held Alison's hand with his right hand. He also smiled at Alison. "We'll be fine," Carson said."But Grandma is very grumpy. She won't forgive what we've done. If she says she's going to kill us, then she will." Alison stopped. She gulped. Alison's face turned pale. "I'm scared."Seeing this, Carson was silent. He saw the same look as when Alison was scared before. The incident with Joel made Carson remember the mistakes he had made. Carson became a little hesitant, but she pushed that feeling away. He was not a weak Carson. She was confident that she could protect her family this time."I will protect you guys. I promise," Carson said. These were not just words. He would keep the promi

"Honey, is it really okay for me to come? My clothes don't seem expensive enough to come." Alison still had no confidence in herself. She was used to being insulted by Nora and her family. It made Alison feel pessimistic about herself. For too long, it could become a permanent trait and character. Carson patted Alison's head gently. "You're already beautiful. No one will insult you. Trust me." Carson calmed Alison down. They arrived at the place where the offer was. They got out of the car. At that moment, many other families arrived. Alison saw that they brought many kinds of gifts. These are not cheap little gifts but expensive gifts for the general. Alison turned to Carson. "Shouldn't we take the gifts given by the grandmother?" She felt that they should also bring gifts. Alison was afraid that not bringing a gift would result in their offer being rejected. They didn't get the offer, which made Nora very angry. Alison was starting to get scared because of this. Carson didn't se
