At the same time, Eleanor was in her office, quickly scrolling through the messages in the group chat, clenching her fists tightly.She angrily smashed her phone, wanting to explain, but a series of typed words ended up being deleted in frustration.Afterward, she cried bitterly at her desk for a while before calming down to continue her work.Some things, the more she cares about them, the more she refutes, but others believe it even more.Just then, Laurie suddenly burst into the office, holding a stack of documents."These documents need your signature.” Laurie coldly said. Her position in the company wasn't high, just the head of the marketing team, and she had to seek Eleanor's approval for everything, which made her very unhappy."Oh, right, your daughter's birthday is on the 23rd. That useless Alexander won't be able to celebrate it with that poor girl."Laurie mocked: “I heard that a rich guy has rented the largest and most luxurious hotel in Golden Harbor to celebrate his dau
Inside the Marshall family company, all the family members and senior company leaders were furious. If it weren't for Alexander and Eleanor, they wouldn't be the laughingstock of others.The Marshall family had almost gone into hiding for the past few days, even the elder chose to recuperate in the old house.In previous years, around these two days, the Marshall family would have been preparing a grand birthday celebration for Mary, but this time was different."Damn it! If it weren't for Eleanor and Alexander, our Marshall family wouldn't have to face such humiliation!""That Alexander is a disgrace to men, he should just die! Take that illegitimate child with him!""Eleanor is also a jinx. Because of her, we've had to endure criticism and ridicule from others."A group of young members of the Marshall family gathered together, angrily discussing, as if they wanted to tear Alexander and Eleanor apart!Tommy simply smirked, a look of anticipation on his face."Tommy, what are you smi
The 23rd finally arrived.The day that shook Golden Harbor had come.On this day, the entire media of Golden Harbor flocked to Skyline early in the day to prepare.At eight o'clock in the evening, as night fell, Skyline was brightly lit, becoming the most dazzling focal point of the city!Dozens of nearby streets were also aglow with neon lights, and the crowd surged, causing traffic jams for a time. People swarmed to Skyline to witness the spectacle, to catch a glimpse of the mysterious billionaire who had booked the entire Skyline for the night!Even the hotels and shopping centers nearby were packed with people, all holding their phones, eagerly awaiting the spectacle to unfold.Because tonight, Skyline had spent a fortune to create an open-air crystal palace on its rooftop, like a blooming white rose. The sparkling glass and roses on the ground created a dreamlike scene that every woman in the city envied.Tonight, in the White Rose Crystal Palace, where the white light illuminate
Inside the crystal white rose palace, after the initial emotions had settled, Eleanor looked seriously at Alexander and asked: “Did you prepare all of this?”Holding Mary, Alexander turned to look at Eleanor, knowing she would ask this question. He replied: “Yes, but I also relied on someone else's favor. When the mysterious billionaire didn't show up initially, I contacted the owner of Skyline, and they let me rent it for an hour.”Hearing this explanation, Eleanor felt a sense of relief, realizing she had been worried for nothing.“Eleanor, I'm truly sorry. These past four years have caused you so much suffering. But from today onward, I, Alexander Reynolds, will never let anyone look down on you again. I will also make sure Mary calls me ‘Dad’ in front of everyone!” Alexander said, looking at Eleanor with sincere determination.Eleanor's face had been stained with tears and seemed to have all the pain and grievances from the past dissolved in that very moment.“Alexander, do you kn
Back home, Valeria was already waiting in the living room. Seeing Eleanor and Alexander approach one after the other, she finally pointed at Alexander and shouted: “Alexander, where did you take my daughter? You know what today is, and you still took her out. Do you want to disgrace our family?!”Alexander tried to explain: “Mother, you misunderstood. I took Eleanor to…”“Shut up! Since you’re both here, I’ll make this clear once and for all!” Valeria, exuding a cold aura, sat on the sofa, pulling out the household register and marriage certificate, slamming them on the coffee table: “Tomorrow, no matter what, you two are getting divorced!”Valeria had endured enough of her useless son-in-law, Alexander. Today, her old friends had mocked her again.“Mother, what’s wrong with you? I won’t divorce Alexander. Don’t you know, today he took me and Mary to…” Eleanor quickly tried to explain.But Valeria interrupted her, with a cold expression, in a posture that said she wouldn’t listen to a
Regarding Alexander, early in the morning, he also went to work.As soon as he stepped into the store, he could feel the unusual glances from the surrounding staff, with everyone pointing at him.Although Alexander felt a bit uneasy, he remained calm, silently picking up the duty roster for the day, changing his clothes, and sitting in the employee lounge, waiting for a client to call his name."Oh, Alexander still dares to come to work, not afraid of losing face, huh?""Haha, what does he have left to lose? His dignity is long gone! Just think about how miserable his wife must feel after last night’s incident at Skyline, it must have been quite a blow to her!""A worthless person is just that—a useless person. Having someone like him in our store is such a disgrace. If it were me, I would have quit long ago!"A group of men in white uniforms and women in pink uniforms pointed at Alexander, whispering among themselves, their words full of mockery.Alexander could only shake his head i
Alexander hurriedly explained: “Manager, I didn’t do anything. She’s falsely accusing me.""Shut up! Why would Ms. Miles falsely accuse someone like you for no reason?" Armand barked, then turned and fawned over Tracie, smiling obsequiously: “Ms. Miles, don’t worry. I will deal with this trash properly!"Tracie arrogantly nodded, her eyes gleaming with malice as she looked at Alexander: “Do you understand now what happens when you cross me? Someone like you, a worthless nobody, has no right to even appear in front of me!"Armand sensing Tracie's seething anger towards Alexander, eagerly joined in, pointing at Alexander and yelling: “I don't care what your excuse is, Alexander. Right now, you will bow your head and apologize to Ms. Miles! And then, get the hell out of here!"At this moment, Armand was boiling with rage. Was Alexander out of his mind?Daring to mess around with customers in the shop—if word got out, their SPA business would be ruined!This worthless fool was always caus
Among them, there were also those who felt sympathy for Alexander, secretly wiping away cold sweat on his behalf.Even Wilmer cast a cold glance at Alexander. If it weren’t for the fact that Eleanor was from the Marshall family, he definitely wouldn’t have hired him.With a cold expression, he said to Armand: “Find a time to fire him, and give him three months' salary."Armand, of course understood immediately and nodded with a grin, saying: “Got it, boss. But there's no need to give him three months' pay. He harassed a guest earlier—he should compensate instead."Wilmer frowned upon hearing that, his face growing stern with anger as he said: “Harassed a female guest? Handle this carefully. We can’t afford to tarnish our reputation with the new owner."Armand nodded: “No problem, leave it to me."With that, Wilmer straightened his suit, put on a smile, and walked toward the Rolls-Royce.Meanwhile, Armand, feeling emboldened, crossed his arms and arrogantly said to Alexander: “Alexande
