"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

"What took you so long, Aland?"Pete asked anxiously. Earlier, he had been pacing in front of the lobby after making sure Aland was no longer in the press conference room because the wedding party had been abruptly stopped before its time. He approached Aland, who had just come out of the lift on the right side of the hotel lobby, in a hurry."I just felt bad when I remembered Arthur's expression earlier. That's why I checked upstairs. What's wrong? Why do you look so worried?"Aland's question left Pete confused. He opened the car door before finally getting in and immediately nodded to the bodyguard sitting behind the wheel. "Shannon fainted shortly after arriving home. And I took her to the hospital because her heart rate suddenly weakened. That's why—"Hearing the news of Shannon's unconsciousness, Aland widened his eyes. He tapped the shoulder of the bodyguard, who was now driving the car with Pete hard. "Speed up the car now!""Calm down, Aland. I get her t

Aland fell silent with his eyes blinking rapidly. Unnoticed, his eyes began to water and heat up at the same time as his nostrils flared to contain his explosive emotions.Aland's tears overflowed. He was completely lost for words. He just sobbed out his joy as he looked down and rested his head on his clasped hands.Shannon nodded slowly and rubbed Aland's head gently. Her head kept nodding as she saw how happy Aland was that he kept crying on the edge of the bed. "Yes, Aland. You are going to be a dad. Although he is still very young, he will soon meet us in his most adorable state."Aland nodded in affirmation. He stroked Shannon's flat stomach before lovingly kissing his wife's forehead. "My bad, Shannon. I'll work harder. I will show him, our Aland Junior, that I am a dad who loves him so much, even though I grew up without a dad's love."Looking at the scene in front of him, Pete sobbed. He wiped his tear-drenched old face as he turned to leave the room where S

"What did you say? You mean you're taking back your words? You're asking me to return home in just twenty-four hours? What do you really want, huh? You just wanted to enter my room and check it out, didn't you? Then what did you find that made you retract your words, huh?"Jill's anger on the other end of the line made Shannon clamp her mouth shut tight. She glanced at Aland, who was holding his hands up, trying to get a phone to address to his mother-in-law. But she refused quickly."I haven't even checked, mum. I just want to preserve Reynolds' good name. That's why, I want you to come back home and lemme leave the house. I'm sorry if I made you angry, mum."Aland nodded in front of Shannon while clasping his wife's hand. "Don't let her know why. Because if she does, she'll most likely try to hurt you. Because all she wants is wealth. Whereas with the birth of your son, if something happens to you, the Reynolds fortune can only belong to our son."Hearing Aland's s

"But why?"Arthur's surprised question as he and Camellia looked at the message Jill had sent after lying together in bed. In a huff, Arthur got up as he considered. He looked at Camellia, who was also looking at him curiously."What's wrong? Who sent the message?" Camellia also sat up to see the message Arthur got just before falling asleep. And how surprised Camellia was to see a message from her mother that she had never imagined. "Shannon left the house to be re-inhabited by mum? What kinda of joke is this?"Arthur shook his head slowly. He looked at Camellia, who was about to get out of bed, then pulled her hand not to rush to blame the choice her mum made. "Where are you going, Lia? Your mum left a while ago. Maybe she called us just to tell us about the same page.""I have a bad feeling, Arthur. I need to catch up with Mum before she gets home."Unfortunately, Arthur tightened his grip even more. He pulled Camellia's hand to sit back on the bed. "What's go

"Damn it! How could they keep that file somewhere else, when home is the safest place? Crazy! They're fucking crazy!"Jill continued to grumble because she felt defeated in her home. Even though she didn't believe Aland's words and tried to shuffle through all the files in Shannon's room during this time, she couldn't find anything.Annoyed, Jill descended the stairs. She grabbed the clutch that was still on top of her suitcase to reach for her phone to call someone. Unfortunately, Lia never answered her phone."What the hell is that? Why is everyone out of the blue ignoring me, huh? How could Lia ignore me after marrying Arthur? Is she going to control Arthur's fortune by herself? No, Lia. It's not going to happen!"Jill's breath caught in her throat as her eyes widened in anger. But when she saw the guest room Pete had occupied earlier, her anger subsided. Without tiptoeing, Jill entered the guest room to investigate every single corner of the room.Some files

From the hospital room where Shannon was being treated, Aland was doing a lot of important work from various places. Starting with approving several travel requests to go abroad at promo prices which were then immediately followed up to one of his colleagues in the tourism sector who was the destination.Then continued with JF Printing work, which gets more print projects with various requests. Not only that, there is JF Load which has also just experienced a rapid increase in demand for shipping goods in order to get more profit. Many customer requests were approved as they started to get a lot of lottery numbers for the grand prize.Luckily, Pete helped take care of the JF Properties and JF Moulding departments, which were operating optimally even without Aland's direct supervision. Not only the JF Groups subsidiaries, Aland also handle all of Shannon's work related to the Reynolds Industries project, which was quite an effort."Is there anything I can help you with, h

Camellia was running down the hotel hallway in a hurry. She even had to carry her high heels in order to run faster to the lift at the end of the Emerald hotel corridor.While waiting for the lift to arrive, Lia looked back. Making sure Arthur had caught up with her to take her to the office on her first day of work after the wedding. Unfortunately, she hadn't even seen Arthur come out of the luxurious apartment at the other end of the corridor on the top floor of the hotel.Camellia chuckled in annoyance. She stared at the lift that had never arrived before she finally heard the apartment door close softly. Realising it was Arthur's approaching steps, Lia turned and chased after Arthur to walk faster than usual."What's taking so long, Arthur? I have to go to the office right now!"Arthur was curious. He stopped walking for a while, but his wife pulled him back to walk faster towards the lift that was about to arrive."Why are you in such a hurry, Lia? We only g

Hearing someone's question that suddenly came from behind the corridor made Lia's eyes widen in disbelief. She knew very well whose voice it was. Yes, the voice of Cobb, son of the bitch.Aland came in with a thick document. There was no expression on his flat face as he approached and handed the document to Evan Rush."I've gathered the evidence, Mr Rush. I didn't know that Reynolds Industries would be missed even though its CEO is the most assertive woman among business executives. Isn't she famous for her gentle demeanour but reluctance to lose money?"Suddenly, Lia slapped Aland angrily. Her forefinger even pointed in front of Aland's face with her eyes wide. "Stop slandering me and mum, Cobb! Shouldn't you be ashamed, huh? Everyone will talk about our family relationship now! Aland Fischer got slapped by his sister-in-law on the first day after the wedding! Wouldn't a headline like this make JF Groups suffer in the future, Cobb?"Aland still stood firm, despite
