Jill had just stepped up, approaching the gate of the Fischer residence, when she heard the commotion outside. She frowned as she pressed her ear against the fence. It was true. There was a lot of noise back there.
Slowly but surely, Jill made her way to the guardhouse. She hissed softly as the guard on duty was about to move and say hello. She pointed her index finger right in front of her mouth to make the guard stay put.The two guards there nodded in understanding and remained silent. They whisper quietly before one of them finally came out to approach after Jill waved her hand."What is it, Mrs Reynolds?""Why are there so many people outside the fence?"Hearing Jill's question, the guard was naturally confused. He looked away for a moment before speaking again."They came with you earlier, Mrs Reynolds. I thought you and Mr Fischer would be having a press conference soon. So we let them stay here for a while."Suddenly, Jill was stunned. She looked

"What's wrong, hun?" asked Aland. He approached Shannon, who looked troubled in front of the grave of William, who had passed away long ago.Shannon frowned and shook her head slowly. For some reason, she felt that the grave where her dad was buried had changed and was not the same as the one she used to visit before going to school abroad. "I'm sure the grave has changed, Aland. It's not like what I knew the last time I came here."Aland, who had never been there, only frowned when he found his wife busy showing him old photos of his dad's grave. He glanced at the phone that had been shown by Shannon, who was still standing beside him."You see this, right?" Shannon zoomed in on the picture, and showing that some things had changed. Especially regarding the smaller size than the one in the picture. "The gravestone is smaller than before, isn't it? There was no mound of dirt before. But this time, why is there a difference? I mean, it's not an ordinary change, is it?"

"Are you getting crazy?! You're asking me to confess even though I'm your half-sister? You guys didn't even find anything as evidence other than the financial statements that you could have manipulated! Did you?"Shannon was silent. She leaned forward even more, trying to get as close as possible to the maddened Camellia."How can I do that if I've been a magazine journalist for Reynolds Industries all of my life, Lia? You forgot, Mum agreed to your proposal because she knew I liked writing. You said I had to work my way up from the bottom to become a good CEO in the future. And now, I'm just doing my job well. Was I wrong?"Seeing the innocent look on Shannon's face, Camellia was fed up. She was really upset when she realised that Shannon's arrival was just about to humiliate her there. Without hesitation, Lia spat angrily at Shannon's face.Aland moved, as did Cedric and one other guard, who spontaneously approached Lia and tried to clasp her. As for Aland, he imme

Jill and Arthur run around with a bag of money found on William's grave. In fact, despite carrying three bags of money, there was still plenty left in William's seemingly bottomless coffin.Arthur carried another bag of money behind a hurried Jill, carrying another bag of money to put in her car. He laughed out loud, as if he had found a treasure that would never end."Without working, Lia and I can live rich for seven generations, mum. Lia is really clever. How could she think of stashing her money in a coffin in her dad's grave? Besides, why are you only finding out now, mum? If it was yesterday, we could have transported it last night, couldn't we?"Jill put the money bag in the car as she looked back. She shook her head softly and started thinking about it after breakfast."Someone contacted me using an anonymous call. Strangely, I heard Lia's voice. And she mentioned the tomb. So what's wrong? Of course, without waiting any longer, we have to secure it before th

"Lemme go, Frey! It's not what you imagined! Lemme go or you'll get even bigger charges! You won't even be able to work in the whole of the UK if you keep taking me to prison for now!"Arthur never stopped boasting about the speeding police car after his arrest. He glanced at Jill, who was still looking relaxed without trying to defend herself in front of Edward as he did."Say something, mum! We're innocent! The money disappeared out of the blue, didn't it? Tell them the truth so we don't get caught, mum! Or something will happen to me in the future and I swear you won't like it!"Jill glanced at Edward and Phil, who were sitting in the front cabin through the glass of the small cabin above. Then she looked away without saying a word.This, of course, made Arthur even more frustrated. His two tightly cuffed hands tried to touch Jill's hands behind his waist. Unfortunately, he could not reach."Please, tell them, mum! We didn't even do anything wrong other than s

Instead of answering, Aland laughed. Not just by himself, but there were several other voices looks like laughing at Jill's stupidity and their capture by the local police.Jill growled in annoyance. She swallowed hard with reddened eyes as she felt deeply humiliated. Her gaze trembled, as if she was in the deep of disappointment.Seeing Jill's silence, Arthur immediately leaned in closer. He cleared his throat and tried to get Aland to give Greg the phone as soon as possible."She's also still your mum-in-law, Cobb. Stop laughing at her and just give the phone to Mr Greg! I don't care what you try to do there. Any road, I need your help to get the phone back to the owner. Do you get it, Cobb?"Aland's laughter stopped for a moment. He cleared his throat too and nodded, although from a distance Arthur wouldn't have been able to make out the gesture."Listen to me, Arthur. I'm not anywhere. What do you think you are? I'm at my house. In Dad's room. And out of the

"What did you say? Why didn't you even say this to me before, Arthur? You should have told me from the start! If I had known that, I would never have let you get involved! Now what can we do without Bowen's permission, huh?"Jill's cursing in the prison made Arthur turn around quickly. Both of them were arrested and put in a cell for not talking until the lawyer arrived. Unfortunately, they didn't even get a lawyer, despite calling Gregory at the correct number.Arthur quickly got up with his index finger pointed in front of his face. His laugh was crisp, dismissive, ignoring all the police officers around them and trying to focus on the job at hand."What did you say, mum? I was wrong for never telling you? I was so close to telling you everything when you suddenly told me to shut up because you thought there would be floors and walls that could hear and take it out on Cobb! Don't you remember that, huh? You kept hissing, then saying, enough, Arthur! Don't say anything!

"Where are you going, Aland?" asked Pete bluntly. His fingers tapped on the table as he fidgeted nervously."I just arrived at JF Load, Pete. Today is the first week's lottery announcement. Is something wrong?"There were several newly hired employees working just to broadcast the lottery announcements every week. Not only that, but he prepared a lot of extra accessories to make his online broadcast more watchable.Even so, since this was his first broadcast, Aland was still nervous. Especially after the incident where JF Travel got a lot of customers after he participated in a live session as a guest star showing promo prices for various family holiday destinations."I think they had help from someone, Aland."Aland laughed and nodded slowly. He glanced around as he watched, making sure no one would overhear his conversation."Then let it go, Pete. After all, we don't really want to put them in the prison, right? We just wanna keep them down and deprive them

"T-Ted Bowen? Sorry, but can you say it again?"Aland repeated his same question when he heard the name of Ronald's friend being introduced. He swallowed hard as he stepped into the open lift."Did you hear anything about me, Mr Fischer?"Bowen’s question, which sounded very formal, caused Aland to bow his head softly."I heard you gave US Foods to Arthur, my stepbrother, a few weeks ago. Thank you for your generosity, Mr Bowen."Instead of being flattered by Aland's bow to him, Bowen tapped him on the shoulder repeatedly. He shook his head slowly while clucking as if he was giving a warning."I've been watching you lately, Mr Fischer. And because of that, I'm asking you not to be too nice to new people. Because you never know what the other person is really up to."Instead of being grateful for being given a valuable warning, Aland preferred to express his life principles."I will still try to be a good person, Mr Bowen. If they try to bring me down,
