Britney wanted to play hide-and-seek with her friends, but when she left the classroom, she saw that many of her friends were outside the door of the next class.

"Want to play hide-and-seek?" Britney asked.

Usually, a dozen or so friends would have surrounded her by now. However, this time, no one heard her. They were trying to look inside the classroom.

Britney pouted and walked over. "What are you all looking at?" Seeing no one answering her, she reached out and made space for herself, finally managing to squeeze into the front. "What are we looking at?"

"There's a newcomer," a boy said to Britney, pointing to another boy in the corner.

Britney looked over to see the little boy quickly solving a Rubik's cube. Then he casually threw the Rubik's cube into the basket. His actions were so smooth, he looked very cool!

Britney was in a daze. The last person she'd seen who played with a Rubik's cube like that was her father! This boy was also as good-looking as her father! She was sti

She felt unnervingly awkward as she watched Stephen pass his coat to Tabitha instead.She clenched her fists but immediately turned 180 degrees and put on a smile. "Stephen, I took up a business project that requires me to travel for a week. Britney…""I'll ask Julian to pick her up." Stephen made the decision before Ariel could even finish speaking.Ariel's mouth was gaping open, but she forced out another smile. "Great. I feel comfortable knowing Julian will pick her up.""It’s getting late. You should head back." With that, Stephen swerved past Ariel and headed upstairs.Ariel bit her lip resentfully.

    Noah was sitting on the couch in her office. He had one hand on his forehead as his pinky adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses. He looked elegant.Yvonne entered the office and made eye contact with him.There was a slight smile on Noah’s face. "It’s been a while, Yvonne."Yvonne returned the smile, but she was complaining in her heart. She was better off not seeing certain people for the rest of her life. Noah and Stephen were cousins, yet they were so different in character. Stephen had his emotions written on his face, but Noah kept everything to himself.Yvonne didn’t like dealing with Noah.

She asked, "What do I owe the pleasure, Mr. Anderson?"Oh, being courteous now, are we?" Noah smiled. "Didn’t you use to call me Noah?""I have nothing to do with Stephen

Stephen asked.Philip sighed and replied, "We have no more options."Hope Health Services had managed Elizabeth's medical care for the past two years. The results had been decent at the start.

    Before James could take a close look, the boy was already seated in the car.He thought, "I guess kids look about the same." Hence, he didn't take it to heart.

    "I know."Yvonne couldn't be bothered. "Since she's your grandmother, obviously you'd be affected by it, but I'm different. I used to help her hold on to my status. Now I don't have anything to do with her. Mr. Anderson, I'm a busy woman. I have no time to meddle in your family matters."Besides, I haven't forgotten how Old Mrs. Anderson used to look down on me and make things difficult for me when I was with you. I have every right not to be bothered by her based on the way she treated me."She's rather old now. It's time for her to go, and you need to come to terms with that. Don't waste time and money on an old person like her."Even though Yvonne was speaking casually about it, she was implying something deeper.Stephen's heart was slowly sinking into the depths of his thoughts.

    A week passed. Ariel was fighting the urge to teleport to Northerna City at that instant. While she was urging the employee to make haste, she received a message from Stephen. "What time will you be back home? Let's have a meal together." It was a succinct message.Surprised, she rubbed her eyes and confirmed what she'd read. The person who texted her was really Stephen!Jodie noticed the situation and approached her with curiosity. "What's the matter?""Stephen is asking me out for a meal." Ariel looked at him. "Pinch me.

    "We're friends." Yvonne didn't think much about the matter. In fact, she was rather perplexed that Xavier had asked that.His brow arched. "Oh, really? Then what are we?""Business partners." She frowned in displeasure. "Do you always check on the other party's personal relationships before talking business?""Nope. It's just pure curiosity." He feigned disappointment. "I didn't expect us to be less than friends. I thought we were childhood friends at the very least, considering our past."Yvonne was rendered speechless, thinking, "What past? Those days when we kept going against each other?" Not feeling the need to bring up their past, she got straight to the point. "On what terms will you be willing to sell Jones Jewels?""I don't want anyone to know my weakness. Even though I was pressured to invest in Jones Jewels, it managed to boost my reputation in the end. If I sell it to you, the only benefit I'll get is money. Nothing more. You're a smart person, Ms. Miller. I reckon y

    "Great acting back there," complimented Yvonne emotionlessly right after they had walked out of the door."It was a genuine answer." Xavier was being serious.She faked a smile at him. "Can't wait to be someone's pawn? What a masochist," she concluded in her head. "When you're free, you should see a doctor to check on your brain or mental health, Mr. Robinson." Upon noticing Lloyd pulling the car over, she descended the stairs and waved without looking back."Didn't you want me to take you home?" He asked, but he couldn't shift his gaze away from her back.

    As Yvonne left the room, she could tell that Stephen's mood was much better.She looked at him. "Are you thinking of something nice?""No." Stephen looked at Yvonne with a rare twinkle in his eyes."Let me take you to breakfast." Before Yvonne could respond, he took her hand and led her to the elevator.Thinking about how he'd stood outside her room the entire night, Yvonne decided to let him hold her hand.Then, her thoughts drifted to Otto.

    Yvonne stood by the door of the bedroom and looked at Otto, who was looking out of the window in a daze on the bed.The sun shone on his face. He looked quite hungover and had a sickly pale face.Yvonne hesitated for a while before saying gently, "Mrs. Jenner called me last night. She's worried about you."Otto didn't respond.Yvonne went in closer and added, "She said that you called her and asked about your father. She found it strange."Mr. Carrington, why did you suddenly think about your father? Did Mrs. Carrington Senior bring him up yesterday?"All Yvonne got was silence.Luckily, she was patient. She sat on the couch and followed Otto's line of sight. Tiny dust particles were floating among the sunbeams. Yvonne also fell into a daze as she watched them float about.Suddenly, Otto asked, "Have you ever felt like your world was falling apart?""Hmm?" Yvonne was confused. "For example?""I mean, like the person that you trust turns out to be different from what you'd t

    The next morning, Yvonne opened her door to see Stephen standing outside. She was caught off guard."What is wrong with you this morning? Why didn't you knock…"While talking, Yvonne noticed that Stephen was still wearing the same clothes as the night before. She furrowed her brows and asked, "Don't tell me you didn't leave last night? Have you been standing outside this door all this while?""Hmm." Stephen looked at Yvonne intently. "I thought you would've figured it out quickly."Yvonne was speechless, but she thought to herself that she'd slept like a baby the night before.She smiled at him. "Figure what out?" She noticed Stephen frowning as though he were on the brink of losing his temper.She quickly added, "I-I mean, you have to give me a hint, right? I've thought about it the entire night, but I still don't understand. My brain isn't functioning well."Stephen asked suspiciously, "You've been thinking about it the entire night?""Yes, which is why I didn't look for yo

    "If I hadn't come to find you tonight, you probably wouldn't tell me anything about what happened tonight, would you?" Stephen asked in retort.It wasn't a big deal, as long as they returned safely. Yvonne wondered why she needed to report this to him.But she still smiled. "It's late. How could I disrupt your rest? It would've been the same if I told you about it tomorrow morning, right?"Stephen sniggered. "Yvonne, you still don't know where you've gone wrong."He suddenly went in closer to her. Yvonne instinctively retreated until her back was up against the wall. She glared at him."What on earth is wrong with you? I've already said that I would've told you tomorrow morning—"A punch went past Yvonne and landed brutally on the wall.Yvonne was a little stunned. She looked into Stephen's eyes and furrowed her brows. "Stephen, I don't want to quarrel with you for no reason. "Mrs. Carrington Senior went to look for Otto today.

She looked at him as he reached his hand out to her in confusion.Cory furrowed his brows and asked unhappily, "Where's the wine?""Wine… Yes! Wine!" Jane came to her senses. She was just about to get up when Cory pulled her back.He grabbed her by her chin and forced her to look at him. "What happened when you went out?""N-Nothing."Cory tightened his grip. Jane furrowed her brows in pain. "I-I… I saw Yvonne. She told me that she and Stephen got remarried.""What?" Cory relaxed his grip a little. "They got remarried?""Hmm.""So, what?" He had no intention of letting her go, and he looked at her sharply. "Does it bother you so much that Stephen got remarried?"Jane looked at Cory frantically. "Cory, what do you mean by that?""What do I mean? You know what I mean."Cory went in closer. His tone turned icy. "You used to pursue Stephen. Now that you know he's gotten married, you're in this shitty mood

    Yvonne turned around to see Jane smiling at her ambiguously. She furrowed her brows. How were they always bumping into each other?Jane crossed her hands in front of her chest and leaned against the wall. She swept her gaze at Calbert and Otto. "Two guys and one woman. You sure know how to have fun!"Calbert instantly snapped, "What the hell are you talking about?""Why are you being so fierce? Did I hit the nail on the head?" Jane snickered. "Two guys and a woman came out of a private room in the middle of the night. Anyone would come to the same conclusion. We're all adults. There's no need to pretend to be innocent.""You—" Calbert was about to go up to Jane, but Yvonne stopped him."Since Ms. Ford is here, I'm guessing so is Cory?" Yvonne smiled, yet her smile didn't reach her eyes. "If you cause a scene here and this bar gets raided, guess who'll be the ones walking out here alive?"Jane's expression turned ugly.

    Calbert and Yvonne managed to track Otto's car to a bar, thanks to the information they'd gotten from his staff. Otto's car was right outside the bar.Calbert looked at the neon sign and furrowed his brows. "Why is Otto here? Did what Mrs. Carrington Senior said really hit him so badly that he has to drown himself in alcohol?"Yvonne said nothing and headed directly inside the bar."Wait up for me!" Calbert went after her. He subconsciously protected her from all the drunk patrons.The lighting in the bar was dim. Many of the patrons were drunk and having fun.Yvonne and Calbert walked around the booth area, but Otto was nowhere to be found. They pulled a server over to ask if there was a patron by the name of Otto Carrington who had reserved a private room.Coincidentally, the server had just taken two bottles of wine to Otto's room. So, he led them to the private room.Calbert tipped the server before opening the door and entering. The entire room reeked of alcohol.He looked

    After Agatha left, Otto stood in the same spot without moving.A long time later, Zac entered the office. He looked at Otto's back and asked quietly, "Mr. Carrington, will you still see the client?""No." Otto sounded heartbroken.Zac didn't dare ask further questions. He gently closed the door and reminded the secretary that no one was to disturb Otto.In the office, Otto was alone. He slowly walked over to the couch and slumped into it. His mind was in a mess."Alexander was the one who planned the kidnapping back then."Agatha's words rang in his mind for a long time.Alexander's young face appeared in Otto's mind, smiling at him affectionately."Otto! Amazing! Yes! Just like that!""You're amazing at badminton! You're going to make the country proud! I'm going to be so proud of you!""Otto, my son!"Memories of his interactions with Alexander flashed across his mind at that moment.Otto couldn't imagine that such a loving father would do such an absurd thing.
