The next morning, Henry greeted Lily, who had just woken up. At that moment, Lily winced in pain as the nurse was treating her facial wounds. Henry approached Lily from the other side, opposite the nurse tending to her injuries. With a warm smile, Henry tried to comfort his wife. "On the second day, bruises like that usually become more painful. Just be patient a little, after breakfast, the nurse will give you some painkillers," Henry said to Lily. Lily nodded but still winced in pain. Moments later, she seemed to be searching for something. Knowing what Lily was looking for, Henry smiled again and shook his head. "You won't find your phone for now. I handed it over to my friend, there might be a little damage from water exposure. If you're worried about your duties at Emerald Group, I've taken care of them." Upon hearing all of this, Lily sighed in relief, although she still felt anxious remembering the threats from Celine and Catherine. "Honey, why are there so many parcels in

On that afternoon, on the way to the Skyline Summit Press Center, the only thing on Catherine Wilson's mind was fantasizing about what she would do after receiving five million dollars from Louis White.Despite Louis stating that the financial assistance he provided was an investment, not a grant like before, Catherine didn't care. As long as she got the money, she believed she had the full right to squander it.Observing Catherine grinning throughout the journey, Jacob patted his wife's thigh and squinted, "Catherine, watch your demeanor!" Jacob said with a serious, threatening expression."Uhm..." Catherine stammered, took a deep breath several times, lifted her head, and, when nothing happened, she punched her own thigh. "Damn! In such a joyous atmosphere, it's hard for me to fake crying. What should I do, Darling?"Jacob glared. "I don't care; all I know is your tears must flow, and you must appear sad because both of us are playing the role of victims! If you keep grinning like e

A team from CBN TV approached Lysa Nadjrov, extending a tightly sealed brown envelope. All the journalists whispered speculations about its contents, while Jacob and Catherine struggled to conceal their anxiety.If the envelope contained evidence, such as a record of bribes given by Catherine to some hiring managers, their reputations would crumble overnight."Mr. and Mrs. Wilson," greeted Lysa as she walked back to her talk show chair, holding the sealed brown envelope, facing Jacob and Catherine. "If you believe you never cheated Mr. Henry James, you don't need to worry about this envelope."A forced smile appeared on Jacob and Catherine's faces. They nodded simultaneously and almost shouted, "We're not worried!"Louis White applauded enthusiastically, followed by several journalists in the auditorium."The confidence of Mr. and Mrs. Wilson must be based on honesty!" murmured a journalist from a renowned newspaper.Other journalists nodded in agreement, one responding, "Yes, such fi

John Wales's oath felt like a lightning bolt striking Catherine and Jacob's hearts."Remember! I have testified according to the facts. If in the future you find my testimony false, you can also throw me in jail!" John Wales emphasized. He looked entirely serious, with no hint of deceit in his facial expression.In an instant, Catherine's lips were tightly sealed, while Jacob, still standing, felt the muscles in his legs starting to weaken.As the audience and journalists' whispers grew louder, Jacob unconsciously found himself slumped on the sofa, feeling utterly drained of energy.At the same time, Lysa Nadjrov asked the audience to be quiet and thanked John Wales profusely for his presence and testimony. Ignoring Catherine and Jacob's pale faces, Lysa Nadjrov turned back to them."Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, Mrs. Lily has proven that she indeed financed her own education without your interference. So, do you still insist on claiming that you financed Mrs. Lily's education? If you refute M

Before leaving the auditorium completely, Henry made sure to hand Lily's phone over to Lysa Nadjrov. "There's evidence of threats made by Mrs. Wilson on my wife's phone. I hope Miss Nadjrov and other volunteer journalists can use this evidence to strengthen Mrs. Wilson's punishment," Henry said, glancing towards Catherine and Jacob, who were growing paler by the moment. Lysa nodded as she received the phone from Henry James. "We'll make the best use of this evidence. We've heard that Mrs. Wilson's daughter and nephew are also involved in this case, and we promise to bring them to court as well, Mr. James." Henry smiled satisfactorily, confident that this time the Wilson family wouldn't have a chance to escape the legal grip. After Henry James's departure, the journalists agreed to escort Jacob and Catherine to the police station as soon as possible. They were all willing to oversee the case and ensure that the Wilson family received the harshest punishment possible. However, when
