"Welcome back, Mr Roesli. You truly understand if the world still needs you," Victor Davis greeted with his fake wide smile.Roesli stared at Victor with his still blurry vision, immediately sensing that the young man in front of him was no better off than he was.'He can't be trusted; his tongue is forked like a snake,' Roesli thought to himself."What do you want?" he asked skeptically.If the young man in front of him was too naive to think he would welcome his 'good intentions,' then he was not worthy of being valuable in his eyes. He didn't believe in superficial things like that.For him, naivety and foolishness were one and the same."Well, the response I hoped for from you, Mr Roesli. Straight to the point, no beating around the bush, strict to business, right?" Victor, who was standing before, now walked towards the waiting chair and sat there beside Roesli's bed. Roesli's peripheral vision followed the young man's movements."Stop the small talk and get to the point; my he

"When will I get my share?" Melanie asked Victor while sipping her martini.Victor was engrossed in the files he received from Roesli and focused on his work, but Melanie was distracting him."Quiet, I told you that you'll get it if your appeal for the patent is successful.""But I need money now; raising a child is not easy, you know," Melanie replied casually, her long legs crossed as she sat with her smooth thighs exposed.‘If you knew the weight of that responsibility, at least try to be sober,’ Victor remarked, glancing disapprovingly at Melanie's third martini; he disliked seductive women like her.He wondered how Melanie managed to become a teaching assistant but eventually concluded that even Professor Agust's class wasn't immune to a man's primal instincts."How much do you need? I hope you'll disappear once you have the money," Victor sneered, grabbing a check and preparing to write the amount Melanie requested.Melanie's eyes widened impatiently as she quickly finished her

"Ahaha... You must be so desperate to accuse others, don't throw your mistakes onto others, young master," mocked Melanie with her title, as if it were part of a joke.She folded her arms across her chest and shifted in her stance."Why do you seem nervous, Melanie? Do you know why I am so confident in accusing you? Because I know I am innocent... And if you've forgotten, I was there talking to Alyssa, and she mentioned meeting someone... She even prepared her favorite chamomile tea specifically for you," Glenn said with a smirk, his sharp eyes seemingly able to read Melanie's thoughts, waiting for her to fall into his trap."You mean green tea? Well, regardless, you're wrong to accuse me," Melanie confidently rejected Glenn’s accusations.Glenn's smirk widened."Oh my... Melanie, how do you know it was green tea she served if you were never there?" Glenn cornered her.Melanie's eyes widened, reflecting her attempt to retract Glenn's statement. She didn't expect that Glenn did it inte

"The murder suspect in the late Mrs Alyssa Hover's case is Melanie Rigis, who has been found to have forged her marriage certificate with Agust Hover. It turns out their child is also not biologically related to the late Mr Agust Hover.Therefore, the patent rights for the tranquillizer drug Soulcatcher remain with Alyssa Hover, who granted mass production permission to Smith Corp based on the last signed letter by the late Alyssa Hover as the legitimate and sole heir of the drug.Meanwhile, the murder suspect, Melanie Rigis, is missing and being sought by the police. Residents who encounter a woman with the following characteristics should report it to the police."The news report echoed, and the television screen displayed a full portrait of Melanie. Glenn turned off the TV with the remote and took a relieved breath. His instincts told him that Victor had taken care of Melanie, but he didn't have enough evidence to accuse the snake-like man.For now, he was satisfied with the prog

"Look, Victor is already in action," Rufus pointed to his laptop screen. Glenn headed to the chirping bird social media platform that Victor often used to incite with his invalid information. This time, Glenn and Rufus fell silent, reading the uploaded copy of the document that looked authentic with furrowed brows and seriousness. After a silence that lasted for ten minutes, Glenn finally spoke up. "Is this valid?!" he asked Rufus, tilting his head and looking at Rufus, who was still sitting on the living room sofa. Rufus was equally surprised as Glenn, "Woah... Wait, I can't answer that, I need to ask Dad first. I've never seen this document before, but I think it's probably because the matter has been settled. Hmm... Whatever it is, I need to meet Dad first," Rufus excused himself. Appearing hurried, he stood up and packed his things, "I told you to just go straight to confront that snake's backside," Rufus complained irritably to Glenn. "There will be a time... If I follow yo

"Dad, look at what's going viral today," Hazel greeted her dad as she approached him, who had just been brought home and gathered with Miriam.Everything felt normal, and Mr Lucas had never been happier with the normalcy. Now, he looked at Hazel and Miriam with a fresh perspective. Normalcy was a blessing, and he didn't want to exchange it for baseless hatred anymore.Mr Lucas placed a teaspoon in his hand and paid attention to what his daughter was reporting. His eyebrows immediately furrowed as he read it, asking Hazel to hand him the tablet so he could examine it more closely."Does Dad know about this?" Hazel asked curiously."Yes..." her dad replied with his eyes still fixed on the tablet screen, which surprised Hazel because earlier he had just answered casually."So... Does that mean Dad will also be implicated in that murder?" Hazel asked with concern. Learning from recent events, at least if someone were to involve her dad, the family should be prepared this time."I even fo

Everyone in the room was startled upon hearing the news."Dad, where do you think he's headed?" Hazel asked her Dad with concern.She still remembered the tense moments when she and Aunt Irina were detained and pushed out of the helicopter towards the heavily burning building.Unconsciously, Hazel rubbed her shoulders, dispelling the sudden shiver. A hand squeezed her shoulder, and she turned around, finding it to be Glenn.The shiver turned into a warm throb, making her feel comfortable and calm. Glenn's grip on her shoulder seemed to signal that she didn't need to worry because he would always be by her side to protect her."How strange... Hasn't he been paralyzed almost all over his body? How could he escape? And besides, isn't there always a police officer guarding his hospital room?" Miriam asked. The same thoughts crossed the minds of the others."He has many accomplices who can help him, Aunt," Glenn replied.Mr Lucas glanced at where Glenn's hand was, but this time, he didn't

"Glenn!" Hazel shouted in fear, and Glenn instinctively embraced her, shielding Hazel from the bullets aimed at them."Haha! How romantic... Truly entertaining," Roesli sneered.*Bang*The gunshot rang out instantly, and Glenn tightened his grip around Hazel. For a moment that felt like an eternity, Glenn waited for the piercing pain that never came."DROP YOUR WEAPONS!" someone yelled, followed by a barrage of gunshots.Glenn dragged Hazel against the wall. The atmosphere was chaotic, with bullets flying in every direction and bodies collapsing nearby.Glenn tried to see what was happening and felt relieved when he saw Benjamin arriving with his troops just in time.Roesli's henchmen fell around the room. Benjamin and his team, aiming from outside, couldn't spot Roesli, who hid with his subordinates against the wall near the entrance.He saw Mr. Lucas and Mrs. Miriam lying on the floor, still alive. Likewise, his father and mother embraced on the bed in a prone position. He took a si

As time passed, Glenn and Hazel enjoyed peaceful days while awaiting the birth of their baby. In the month of their baby’s due date, Glenn received the surprising news that Yvonne and Victor were getting married. “Glenn, hurry up!” Hazel hurriedly put on her earrings as they were almost late for Victor and Yvonne’s wedding ceremony. Glenn quickly grabbed his jacket from the back of the chair and hugged Hazel from behind. Seeing Hazel with her big belly made him fall in love with her even more. “Not now,” Hazel grumbled, annoyed. The more Hazel was irritable, the more Glenn enjoyed teasing her. They stepped out of the house and got into the car. Glenn drove at a moderate speed, occasionally reaching for Hazel’s hand and kissing it gently. Hazel felt incredibly happy, showered with love from her husband. When they arrived at the church, the doors were almost closing as the ceremony was about to begin. Glenn and Hazel entered, accompanied by the quiet laughter of the attendees. They

“Mei!” Hazel immediately hugged her friend, whom she hadn't seen for months.Mr. Zhang’s daughter had decided to visit Hazel in Eagertown after the situation in Yuhan had stabilized. She brought a lot of gifts for Hazel, thinking Hazel would want to try some unique treats from Yuhan.“Sorry I came so late, I’ve been incredibly busy in Yuhan,” Mei said.“It’s okay. I know you had a lot to take care of.”They walked through the corridor and into the living room. Glenn, who had just come out of his office, joined them. They all sat comfortably on the sofa.“How does it feel to be expecting a baby?” Mei asked with a giggle.Hazel was due in four months. Time had flown by, and her belly was already showing significantly.“I feel ugly,” Hazel complained.“Ugly? You look so beautiful, Hazel. I’m even jealous of you,” Mei replied. “Being a mother is a privilege not every woman gets.”“I don’t know… I feel so emotionally unstable.” Hazel pouted.Glenn reached for Hazel’s shoulder and hugged he

195. The Good Thing
The effects of the COVID-19 virus had completely vanished in Eagertown, and everyone had returned to their normal activities without worry. Glenn’s company had become more renowned, producing vaccines not only for COVID-19 but for other diseases as well. Glenn was very busy, but he always made time for Hazel.Glenn had just left the hospital after accompanying Hazel for a pregnancy checkup, when they happened to run into Beatrice. Apparently, Beatrice had just arrived there.“Mrs. Zimmerman, what are you doing here? Are you sick?” Hazel asked.“Oh, I’m not sick, Hazel. I have a meeting with some doctors here to discuss sending medical aid to remote areas in Latin America.” Beatrice chuckled softly.“You’re really busy,” commented Glenn. “Take care of your health, Mrs. Zimmerman.”Beatrice nodded. “Thank you for your concern, Glenn.”Then she continued, “Since I happened to run into you here, Glenn, there’s something I’d like to talk about. I need your help.”Glenn was momentarily tak

“Where’s Glenn?” Yvonne asked as she and Victor approached Hazel, who was already sitting and waiting at the café where they had arranged to meet.“He’s taking Sean and his grandmother to Ms. Eugene’s place.”Yvonne only nodded briefly, then took a seat. Victor immediately started flipping through the menu, feeling very hungry.“They’re going to stay there? It seems Eagertown isn’t suitable for Sean,” Victor commented.Hazel sighed softly. “It might be too noisy here.”“Some people just don’t feel comfortable living in the city, Hazel. It doesn’t mean they don’t like being with you.”“I know.” Hazel only nodded wearily.Hazel felt dizzy and her stomach was uneasy, but she forced herself to meet Yvonne and Victor because she wanted to discuss the charity. Yvonne was going to provide a report on the funds that had been allocated and where they had been sent, including to Ms. Eugene’s place.However, Hazel didn’t want to talk about that at all; she just wanted to lie down in bed.“Hazel?

The atmosphere there was busy, as everyone was hard at work building the town. Glenn got out of the car along with Sean and Grandma Mari. As Glenn expected, it seemed that Sean and the grandmother were immediately captivated. Both of them looked at Glenn.“This is a very nice place, Glenn,” praised Sean.From the crowd, Ms. Eugene emerged with a wide smile. She immediately greeted Glenn, Sean, and Grandma Mari.“This must be Sean and Grandma Mari,” nodded Ms. Eugene. “Mr. Glenn has called me, and I am really delighted if you want to stay here.”Grandma Mari agreed. “Of course. I feel at home already.”“You can look around if you like,” offered Ms. Eugene.Sean and the grandmother held hands, and they soon mingled with the people busy at work. Meanwhile, Glenn and Ms. Eugene watched over the bustling activity.“You’re very busy here?” asked Glenn.Ms. Eugene chuckled. “We got a lot of help from Mrs. Zimmerman’s charity and Miss Yvonne.”“Oh, really?”It turned out that the charity ment

A week after Mason's funeral, Beatrice visited Glenn's office. According to Mason's mandate, the company acquired by Glenn would still provide Beatrice with the remaining funds. It was no small amount since Glenn had bought Mason’s company at a fair price.Beatrice had signed the documents and handed them to Glenn. She looked very composed, though her heart had been broken twice after losing Mason forever.“It’s all done, Glenn. Thank you for your cooperation,” Beatrice said.“Once again, my deepest condolences, Mrs. Zimmerman.”A faint smile appeared on Beatrice’s lips. “What happened to Mason did break my heart. But in the end, he tried to be a good person, and I am still proud of him.”There was a light in Beatrice’s eyes, indicating she had come to terms with everything. Even when Mason returned, he was the Mason she had once known.“He will be remembered as a good man. I will make sure of that,” Glenn nodded.“Thank you, you are very kind.”“So, what are your plans moving forwa

Eleanor brought a cup of hot coffee, and though she had changed her clothes, her face still looked disheveled. She smiled sweetly as she placed the coffee on the table, then sat next to Mason. She tried to touch him, but Mason gently moved her hand to the sofa.“Once again, I’m sorry, Eleanor. But I can’t continue our relationship,” Mason said.“You’re going back to Beatrice, aren’t you?”“No. But we’ve made peace, and I know she doesn’t want me anymore.”“Then why? Why are you going back to her?” Eleanor asked, her eyes sad. “Stay here with me.”Mason gave a faint smile, his face looking sorrowful. He felt like the most despicable person in the world, having hurt both Beatrice and now Eleanor. They both deserved happiness, something Mason couldn’t offer.When Beatrice decided to keep their relationship as friends for now, Mason accepted it. He felt he had to be fair, which meant Eleanor also needed to find her own happiness.“You need to find your own happiness, Eleanor.” Mason kisse

I can’t just accept Mason’s feelings, I don’t know… I don’t want to force myself.”“Yes, of course, Mrs. Zimmerman. Even though you're his wife, you have the right to find your own happiness. If it’s better to be friends, then that’s what you should do. But if your feelings say otherwise...” Hazel began, but Irina interrupted her.“No! Don’t go back to him. I can’t imagine it. Just stay friends, Beatrice,” Irina said firmly.Beatrice chuckled. “Yes, I’ll just follow wherever our story leads.”“He cam

The foggy memories slowly became clearer as Mason stepped onto the porch of the house he had long abandoned. Dark thoughts crept into his mind—if he knocked on the door, would he be welcomed? Or would everything be different?Mason took a deep breath and pressed the doorbell of the seemingly deserted house.Several minutes passed, and Mason continued to stand there, waiting. Finally, the front door opened, and Beatrice appeared. Despite looking older, her face was bright. She had found her own peace.However, the arrival of Mason seemed to shatter that peace instantly.“Mason?” Beatrice looked at him in disbelief.“I’d like to talk to you, Bea. May I?
