Paige had regretted it.A few years of jail were enough to grind away her rough edges and arrogance.Slowly, she had also realized where she had really gone wrong.Though she had been forced to marry Camryn’s father back then, she and her true love, Cain, had also not fought to the bitter end and bowed their heads to reality.After they got married, her husband Abel had treated her very well, but she still missed Cain, so together, they plotted against Abel. They caused his death and took control of the Newman family and legacy.Neither Paige nor Cain felt like they had done anything wrong. They felt that the Newman legacy belonged to them because they were wronged by Cain’s parents and Abel, who had never properly reflected upon their mistakes before.As for Camryn…Paige did not look at Camryn. She had never felt anything motherly for her daughter, and in the past, she had hated her eldest daughter. Now, her eldest daughter hated her.The pair would never ever be like a reg

Trenton was in his twenties now. If they managed to find Carrie, Trenton could arrange for Carrie to get a job at the company, so that she could have a stable monthly income and not suffer anymore.Trenton was kind and would help find Carrie a match, too. He might even be able to help her marry into a relatively wealthy family, ensuring she would never have to worry about food or clothing.As long as her son and daughter could live peaceful, happy, and worry-free lives, she was willing to bow to her eldest daughter she hated most.“I’m only where I am today because I planned every step of the way, and also because I was lucky enough to marry into the York family and had their help.“I can’t let go of the past, and I will never forget how you guys treated me. I was innocent. It’s not like I asked you to give birth to me, but you still took all of your resentment and hatred out on me.“My dad hadn’t done anything wrong to you either. In fact, you guys were the ones who wronged him.

“Is she worried that Longbottom fellow is still looking for her?”Camryn replied, “Maybe, or maybe she has legitimately repented and doesn’t want to trouble you.“If she really is in Wiltspoon, you just need to know that she’s alive. Don’t go looking for her, but don’t stop looking for her elsewhere, or else you’ll raise Mr. Longbottom’s suspicions. That would only be detrimental to her.”Then, Camryn patted Trenton’s shoulder and continued, “Trenton, Lana is a good girl. Cherish her deeply.“You’re all grown up and in your twenties now, so you should understand by now that everything happens for a reason. Everyone chooses their own path, and once you’ve chosen yours, you must bear the consequences.“Live your life to the fullest and mind your own business.”She was telling her brother to live his own life. As long as Carrie was still alive and able to support herself, there was no need to worry about her.In about two years, he would get married and build his own family. If he

It was after they learned his parents had been imprisoned that these former friends and classmates distanced themselves. Trenton knew they looked down on him for it.His good friends from university had also not kept in close contact after graduation. Lana was the only one who remained a close friend.She was the girl he liked, and she never looked down on him for his family background.Would her parents disapprove?Trenton turned away and walked inside.Elsewhere, in Solville, River’s car was stopped in front of the Summit Group entrance again. There was a bouquet of flowers on the front passenger seat, as well as a set of jewelry he had just bought. He planned to give these to Rosalie.Though Rosalie had not agreed to be his girlfriend yet, it did not stop him from pursuing her.There were already rumors about the two of them, so he might as well give them something real to talk about.Besides, Rosalie was not entirely indifferent toward him. She was only refusing to accept h

Christian replied bemusedly, “If you like Rosalie, you should just say so. Why beat around the bush like this?”“Like I said, I’m not beating around the bush anymore.”River waved the bouquet and gifts he bought. “I'm working on it. I just don’t know when I’ll actually get to invite you to my wedding.”Christian suddenly patted his shoulder. “Good luck, Mr. York. We’re all waiting for the day. But you two are notorious rivals. The obstacles in your way are just too big.“That might be tricky to resolve. How about this—why don’t you transfer all your shares in Crest Co. to me?”“Why not transfer your shares in Silver Co. to me instead? I can afford to buy out Silver Co.”Christian chuckled. “Just kidding. I believe you can handle it, Mr. York. Come on, let’s go in together.”He led the way inside.River immediately followed. “Does that mean you intend to compete with me, Mr. Jacques?”Christian glanced at him and admitted frankly, “I'm no match for you. I know my place and won'
