Quickly, Jill got up after listening to the recorded voice, which shocked her. Her eyes widened, as if she couldn't believe what she was listening to.
Seeing her mother's sudden change in demeanour, Camellia also got up after gazing at the man she had met discussing the topic of marriage in Arthur's luxurious room. She approached her mother to find out what was going on that was making Jill behave impolitely. "What are you doing, mum?"Jill twisted her head with both eyes, scanning the surroundings. She glanced at the clock that was almost nine. "He's here. Did he ever send someone here? Why do I feel like he knows my movements here?"Arthur, who was sitting on his stool, frowned. He rose slowly, with both eyebrows furrowed in surprise. "What is it, Mrs Reynolds?"Jill moved quickly. She approached Arthur nervously while biting her lower lip as she glanced around. "Aland is here. He knows I'm going to have a press conference about this issue soon. And he—"Jill aTen minutes earlier, Arthur had briefly excused himself to Camellia to go to the hotel to get something. Camellia, who had understood, nodded and said yes without hesitation. Quickly, he contacted someone in the car park to prepare the car in front of the lobby to shorten the time.Along with Jill, who also went down from the top floor to the underground floor, Arthur was behind her back, heading to the ground floor. Sure enough, it only took him a short while to arrive at the hotel and search the room Jill was in. Slowly but surely, he searched for the suitcase that Camellia had mentioned in a text message.In just a moment, she could find the suitcase that Jill had hidden under the bed. He quickly opened the suitcase and tried to find the hidden file. He found it!In the pocket on the back cover of the suitcase, he found documents he had never seen in all the time he had known Jill. Without thinking, he photographed every single file he found with a triumphant smile th
In the JF Groups room, Pete, who was watching the press conference, let out a long sigh. For the first time, he felt relieved when he saw Jill make a statement. After that, he resumed the JF Groups project and rescheduled Aland and Ronald White's meeting.Elsewhere, Shannon just stood with her arms crossed. Instead of paying attention to the press conference that might affect Reynolds Industries, Shannon focused on the statement in the court's judgement. She read all the facts about who Jill really was from the pictures she took when she found Jill's confidential documents.Shannon massaged her head lightly. She really did not expect Jill's life to be so full of drama. Although she herself did not understand whether the court judgement was something that could be accounted for or not.Out of curiosity, Shannon finally opened a search page. She entered keywords with Cavill's name. Sure enough. She found a lot of news about the name she had entered.Shannon swallowed h
"Forget about this. They must be working together. Those two bastards must be seeking revenge. Meggie with her demands, and Aland with his desires. Damn it!"Arthur's eyebrows rose as he sniggered softly. He grabbed a proposal that had to be presented before lunchtime. "We should go meet Joseph this afternoon, Mrs Reynolds. Isn't he the biggest distributor who brought Reynolds Industries so much demand? This time, you have to get it. Not just for US Foods' benefit. But it will also be the presentation after you return after being expelled by Shannon, right? If you can take over Reynolds Industries' favourite position, I can just buy you an apartment like the one I have now. Isn't that exciting, Mrs Reynolds?"Instead of answering enthusiastically, Jill squinted sharply. She glanced at the watch on her wrist before finally reaching for the proposal Arthur held out in front of her. "Even I was your future mom in law when you almost married my daughter? Can't you go alone this
"That's easy, Mr White. I'm just her son-in-law, married to one daughter she loves so much. I may not have done much, but my mother-in-law gave up everything so that her other daughter would not feel neglected. Isn't that the kind of attitude my mother-in-law has always shown, Mr White?"Instead of laughing and confirming, Ronald White looked at Aland even more intently. His head nodded slowly as he took stock of things. "You know very well, Mr Fischer, how Jill really is. Why are you still trying to cover it up in front of me? We can have an open discussion here. No one will know. It's just us here."Aland looked around the room. For some reason, he felt that Ronald's words contradicted the truth. "No, Mr White. I'm only here to discuss the schedule for the first phase of construction. Besides, I have nothing to say about my mother-in-law, even if it's just the two of us. If you have no problem with the proposal, then fine, I'll assume you approve it even if you haven't rea
The Emerald Hotel to be flooded with many flashes of light. There were many journalists and reporters ready to ignore the many moments of the rich business executives and the invited rulers. One by one, the luxury cars stopped to drop off the guests, who continued to arrive.From a distance, Aland and Shannon, as well as Pete, who was in the same car, the luxury car that James had owned for a long time, had stolen more attention. Just as the three of them disembarked simultaneously, the lightning-like flashes that filled the sky continued to arrive, along with the snap of each camera held by the paparazzi in front of the famous hotel.Ignoring the many questions from the media crew, Shannon, who continued to be bombarded with questions because she was not an important part of her sister's wedding party, continued to walk in without answering a word according to Aland's instructions.Similarly, Aland kept his mouth shut when reporters asked him about being a guest, not a
In her white dress, Camellia's face glistened in the light from the photographers waiting for the bride and groom to arrive. Camellia's beautiful smile combined with the sparkling colours of her wedding dress that radiated happiness caught the attention of all the guests. Shannon was no exception, who gaped in disbelief."Oh, my god! She really looks stunning in that long, flowing dress!"Aland nodded in affirmation, though his gaze was directed at Shannon alone. Even his smile was only to be shown to one woman, namely the wife who had accepted all the things that had stuck in the past.Feeling noticed, Shannon glanced at Aland briefly. It was as if she did not want to lose the precious moment of seeing her beautiful sister on stage heading towards where the groom was waiting on the main stage. "Don't be silly, Aland. Why are you staring at me when the bride and groom walking towards the main stage?"Aland grabbed Shannon's hand to hold it before gently kissing the b
"Please let me go. I can go by myself!" Dwyane pleaded weakly. Not because of her overwhelming fear, but because her goal had already been achieved. Unfortunately, the guards were reluctant to let her go.Jill also came out angrily, following the guards who took Dwyane out of the hotel hall for the wedding from an unknown side entrance. Her feet moved quickly with both eyes ready to take in the surroundings. Just as the guards released Dwyane outside the room, Jill delivered a hard slap.Slap!Dwyane was slapped. Still being held hard by the guards, she received a second slap on the other cheek.Slap!"How dare you try to incite Arthur, huh? You weren't even invited here! Shouldn't you be ashamed of yourself for trying to ruin someone's wedding? What if the bride is you? The party is ruined, everyone's mood is ruined. That's what a wedding is to you, huh?"Dwyane did not rebel. She knew she was wrong. It was just that seeing Arthur marry another woman made he
"What are you saying? How could the surveillance camera footage out of the blue disappear? No one else would have gone there to retrieve it because no one knows about this incident except—"Jill's sentence was not finished when she recalled the expression on Aland's face as he brought Dwyane from her tantrum. She squinted and turned around quickly and sharply. Her eyes looked at Arthur, who had remained silent since seeing Dwyane's presence there.Seeing her mother's movements, Camellia fell silent. She got up and started pulling her mother, who was staring at her husband mad. "Mum, listen to me. You remember he was constipated? He was having a bad day. Even in the middle of the show, when mum asked the guards to pull Dwyane out of the hall, he had it again, mum! Please keep your anger out of Arthur!"Jill threw Camellia's hand away angrily. Her eyes stared intently before finally pointing her finger in her face. "Don't you remember the relationship between Arthur and Dw
