“Why are you here at this hour, Mr. Jacques? It’s a little bit late for business. Are you here to invite Rosalie out to dinner, too?”Christian countered, “Am I not allowed to? We’ve dated before.”That was what gnawed at River the most.He was not technically dating Rosalie right now, and she had dated a few other rich heirs, too. Luckily, her standards were high enough that it had not gone anywhere with those guys.When she went on that first blind date with Christian, River had known about it, but at the time, he had not realized he had feelings for Rosalie.When he heard about it, he said in private that Rosalie was bad-tempered and had too strong a personality for Christian to handle, and that it would definitely not work out.Lo and behold, he was right on the money, and things did not work out between them after the blind date. There was no follow-up either.Unexpectedly, not long ago, the two decided to see each other again.Christian even publicly appeared as Rosalie’s

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

Once he ended the call with the head of the detective agency, Trenton walked toward his own and drove off.Camryn had returned to Wildridge Manor. Trenton followed after her.He had just parked in the manor parking lot when he heard the familiar sound of his nephew’s voice.“Uncle Trent! Uncle Trent!”Hearing his nephew’s clear, cheerful cry instantly lifted Trenton’s spirits.He got out of the car and had barely closed the door when Merry rushed over, wrapping his arms around one of Trenton’s legs.“Uncle Trent, you’re finally here! I missed you so much. Did you miss me?” Merry tilted his little face up as he asked Trenton.Trenton bent down to pick up Merry, smiling. “How could I not? I missed you so much. That’s why I came to see you today the moment I had some free time.”“Really? Then can you play with me today?”“Of course. Come on, let’s go inside first. Are your parents back already?”“Yup, they’re inside.”Trenton carried his little nephew toward the main building.

“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

Paige was taken away due to her emotional outburst.Camryn stood up and turned to walk outside.After a stunned moment, Trenton hurriedly followed after her.As they walked, he asked anxiously, “You know where Carrie is, don’t you, Camryn?”Camryn had known so much about Carrie.He had only known a little, and most of that he had learned by overhearing conversations between Camryn and Serenity.He knew that there was no way his two older sisters would ever reconcile.Camryn had suffered so much abuse and even almost died at their hands.Camryn had told him before that if their Aunt Evelyn had not gotten home right then, back when she was sixteen, she would be dead.Aunt Evelyn had brought her to the hospital and saved her life, but that incident left her living in darkness for almost eleven years.After Camryn lost her sight, Paige and Carrie continued abusing Camryn.Trenton understood that Camryn could never forgive their mother or Carrie.If he were her, he could not do

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.
