After Bruce came to help handle the bandits outside, William felt relief and immediately rushed off to get to the main deal. "I pray I make it in time. Please be safe and sound for me, Catherine," William silently continuously said to himself as he ran towards the back of the mansion. Checking his phone, he noticed that there was no network, the same as it was on Henry's side. Meaning it wasn't a coincidental attack but was planned for them to use the same trick here too. Unfortunately, they didn't know who they were dealing with, William wasn't the powerless weakling of before; now, he was at a higher level than anyone thought. "After this, I'll make sure I deal with the bastards involved in this," he already had two people in mind, Tony McAllister and the Hidalgos. He already knew about the Hidalgo's revenge on the Kensingtons; it was all over the news. He did some digging into the matter and discovered that the Hidalgos were the ones behind everything. But William wasn't going

The next morning, news of the Kensingtons being attacked by bandits was all over the news. People were surprised by this; thoughts of who dared to send these bandits to attack them filled their heads, but one thing they knew was that the Kensingtons might have offended someone or a family more wealthy and powerful than them. The public doesn't know about the current bad terms between the Hidalgos and Kensingtons. In fact, the news about Thomas being attacked in the "Luxe Fernandez Hotel" was hidden from the public and only known by a few people.On a popular TV channel known as ZeeTv, a show was airing. Three presenters were on stage, two female and one male in the middle."Strange that the cops didn't arrive on time, until twenty minutes later," the female presenter on the left side of the male said with a thoughtful expression."It seems like the attack was well-planned because it was reported that the moment these people attacked, the network suddenly went down and they couldn't

Mrs. Marianne and her daughter watched as Catherine slowly walked upstairs to her room, lost in her thoughts. Her steps were slow and steady as if a huge stone was tied to legs.Her room? Could she still call it her room when she had already been cast out by the old boss lady?At that moment, the pain in her heart was unbearable. She was barely holding back her emotions.She felt betrayed by her family—her own family, whom she had worked so hard for all these years to satisfy.In the end, without hesitation, they turned their backs on her because of the incident. But that wasn’t even the worst part.Her mother and sister hadn’t even tried to plead on her behalf, all because they feared they might be cast out with her. They had stood there, silently watching her grandmother speak those hurtful words to her."Ahhhhh~~" Catherine cried out in a loud voice as she fell to her knees.She could no longer suppress the pain. She let her emotions take over completely.Memories of the past bega

~ Catherine's POV ~I drove my car into the bank's parking lot, my kids sitting quietly in the back.Today was the worst and most painful day of my life. I could feel my heart pounding as we pulled up.Even though I tried to keep a brave face, I couldn’t conceal the tears that had been steadily building up inside me.I quickly wiped them away before anyone could notice.As soon as we got out of the car, little Ava looked up at me with her big, round, cute eyes and asked curiously, "Mommy, where are we going?"I forced a smile and said, "We are going on vacation."Even though I delivered those words as if it were a fun trip, my smile was nothing but faked. I only said it to keep the kids from worrying.When I mentioned vacation, Aiden’s face lit up with excitement, and he asked, "Where, Mommy? Where?" I replied simply, "It will be a surprise."I hoped that my answer would bring them some joy, even though I was filled with inner pain.At that moment, all I desired was cash to take care

"I heard what happened," William calmly said to Mrs. Marianne. His eyes didn’t even flicker toward Bridget, treating her presence as if she were no more than a shadow. "I came to see how she’s doing."Bridget’s face twitched at the way he ignored her. Rage boiled inside her. How dare this poor bastard act like she was invisible? It was a direct insult, humiliating to the core."Leave. The person you're looking for isn't here," Mrs. Marianne replied coldly, her voice filled with irritation."Mom, why even bother wasting your breath on him?" Bridget snapped, stepping forward and jabbing a finger in William’s direction. "Trash like him isn’t worth even a second of our time."Her voice trembled with anger as she pointed at him again. "You shameless man! You still have the guts to show your miserable face here? Again and again?""Shut it," William replied, still calm, but now with some coldness to his voice. "I’m not here for someone like you."There was no emotion in his eyes, just disdai
