“Unreasonable and obstinate?”Archibald sat beneath the light and looked at his only son, his face filled with bitterness and gloom.Rising, he walked out of the study. Moments later, his deep voice traveled into the study. “Didn’t you say I was unreasonable and obstinate, Anders? Well, you’re going to follow me and take a look at your precious son. “I want you to see how twisted he has become! Let’s see how you react when you find out about his appalling confession!”Anders felt a chill down his spine. At that moment, he recalled how Marisol had wept every day for the past few days. There were also doctors visiting their villa now, including a nutritionist and the most reputable psychiatrist in Brookesville. Both of them met Anderson every day. Ironically, he hadn’t even see his son all this while. Archibald opened the door to his grandson’s bedroom. Anderson was lying on the bed. He was much skinnier than before. A couple of warm, friendly doctors were sitting by his sid

The streets were illuminated by numerous neon lights. The bars lining the lanes were livened up by a lady singer’s husky, melancholy voice, just as it always had.What was different now was that Gwynn and Lorian were no longer here. The street was teeming with people and bustling with chatter, but he was merely standing there by himself, feeling an immense sense of loss.Then, he saw Anderson. He was on a blind date with someone in a high-end restaurant. The lady was elegant and noble. She wasn’t anywhere near as astoundingly beautiful as Gwynn, but she did possess a certain charm and an exceptional gracefulness about her. Both of their parents seemed to be having a good time with each other too. Noah stood outside and watched him quietly. Anderson seemed enthusiastic, but his eyes were devoid of life. Something was very different about him. In the end, he resorted to waiting outside. He was waiting for them to come out of the restaurant. Anders and Marisol were startled

Gwynn’s black umbrella and dress looked like a piece of art in the rain. She was finally back in Brookesville after four years.On day after her return, she was sorting through her old belongings when she abruptly recalled that Noah had invited her for dinner four years ago. He said he needed to talk to her about something important. Today was the anniversary of that day. Back then, she was forced to leave the country. The fact was that she had never forgotten about it. It was just that the incident came out of left field and caught her by surprise. Her reconciliation with Noah paled in comparison to that outrageous incident.She was a little disappointed that she couldn’t have met him. At the same time, she missed him a little. With that said, she didn’t regret her decision in the least. So many years had passed. She actually came to this restaurant to have closure over the person she missed back then. On top of that, she came here to bid farewell to her old self. After al

Noah didn’t turn on the light. Instead, he sat by the side of the bed and stared at his son underneath the dim light. After a long time, he reached out and brushed Lorian’s cheeks. The little boy rolled to the side and lay down flat on the bed. His defined nose and innocent eyes reminded him so much of Gwynn back when she was a little over twenty years old. Just like that, his mind was flooded with memories. The pain was so excruciating that it felt like someone stabbed him through the heart. He was still hurting on the inside. He found success and rebuilt his business after four years. Everyone thought he had recovered from the grief and moved on. He even convinced himself that he no longer cared about it that much. However, meeting Gwynn again revealed to him that his heart was actually still torn to shreds!He didn’t stay for too long. She stood by the window when he left, her black dress blending into the surrounding darkness. She saw him going downstairs and getting

Archibald walked over slowly and said, “This is Templeton family business. There’s no need for you to intervene, Noah.”Noah stood in front of Gwynn and stared straight into the old man’s eyes. This time, he actually didn’t let Archibald stare him down. He said, “She’s a Worshem, not a Templeton! Also, as far as I’m concerned, she’s still part of my family. “We might not be married anymore, but she’s still the mother of my children. That makes her my family. This is something that no one could ever change!”…Archibald sneered, “It looks like you’re dead set on poking your nose into my family’s affairs!”Noah sneered right back at him. Then, he forcibly took her away.The Sargents saw that the dinner didn’t go the way it should and got the heck out of there swiftly. An eerie silence hung over the private room. The old man wore a grim and blood-chilling expression. Staring at Anderson, he said coldly, “You actually still have feelings for her! Have you forgotten the fact that
