Vireo looked at his mother with his face covered in tears. "That's right, Mom. You have a backer now. From now on, I'll be your backer.""Even if I had never raised you for a day?" Elsa said again."As long as you've given birth to me, you're my mother.""My good child." Elsa was covered in tears while looking at her son. "Even if I were to die, my whole life would already be worth it. I have wronged you. I will leave the convent. I don't need to take care of you. I want to take care of you and help you take care of your children. I will leave the convent now."The reason she had given up the worldly desires and become a nun was that she had not much hope in life anymore. However, things were different at that moment. When Elsa saw her son, hope had been rekindled for her. Therefore, on the day her son came to her, she left the convent. The old lady had never married and had lived alone her whole life. In her sunset years, she finally found her biological son and someone to lean on
Sean was still kneeling on the ground and he cried extremely miserably. Sebastian and Vireo looked at each other. "Sebastian, I have acknowledged you as my brother, but I don't want to acknowledge him as my father.""I understand." Sebastian did not force Vireo.Vireo was not the only one who hated his father. Sebastian hated his father as well. It was just that compared to Vireo, Sebastian has had it a little better. At the very least, he knew he had a father since childhood, and his father had never stopped providing him with financial support. At that moment, his father was already more than 70 years old. The old man was already in his sunset years. Besides, with the state that he was in, it was already considered that he had received some punishments. In any case, he was already so old and he was his biological father, after all, so Sebastian did not wish to fight with Sean anymore. "Vireo, go ahead and take your mother down the mountain. We'll meet up again after I have let Da
The woman looked like she was in her thirties. Her professional attire showcased her competent temperament, but at the same time, it did not make her lose any graceful femininity. The woman had a very nice figure. She had curves in all the right places and was very gentle. However, she did not appear to be provocative at all. Instead, with the pairing of her professional attire, the woman appeared to be incomparably distinguished while also appearing to be friendly and gentle. She had the great charm of a mature woman in her thirties. Particularly when she looked so graceful as she walked, which made others feel extremely comfortable. Such a woman then walked step by step toward Sebastian with a smile on her face. "Mister Ford, why are you stunned?"Sebastian had no expression on his face. He disliked anybody entering his office without his permission. Unless it was his wife and his three children. However, this woman in front of him…"Miss White, didn't you say that you won't be com
Since it was a meeting for the contract, there certainly was going to be a battle for the interests between the two parties. In fact, however, for such meetings when the contract was already about to be finalized, everything had actually already been negotiated by both parties before they got to the room. Both parties were just having a discussion at that meeting as a matter of routine. This was particularly so when the opposite party was a multinational company like the White Group.However, the group of high-ranking executives from the White Group who came to negotiate with the Ford Group still wanted to take on the dominant position in this contract. Not to mention, the young lady of the White Group was also present that day, so they wanted to showcase their competency even more.The few high-ranking executives unanimously showed off in the meeting by saying that they were going to give up a share of the profit for the Ford Group. They also mentioned that even though many companie
Misty smiled gently. "Your wife? Is she…Sabrina Scott?"Sebastian did not say anything, and he simply just looked at her. His expression was so calm and composed that Misty felt he had no reaction at all. "Sebastian, after so many years, has the love between you and your wife, Sabrina, faded?" Misty's tone was very considerate.Before coming to South City, Misty has had some understanding of Sebastian's private matters. Sebastian's wife, Sabrina, ran off on her own while carrying Sebastian's child, and she was only found and brought back by Sebastian five years later. Till then, there were still many people in South City who were talking about that story with much interest. They said that Sebastian's wife had elevated her social status because of her child. If she had not been pregnant with Sebastian's child back then, Sebastian may have already married a noble young lady from South City or Kidon City. It was such a pity that even though there were plenty of noble young ladies who
The number of people who had been waiting to marry Misty and be the man of the White family was so great that they made people feel light-headed. However, none of them were to Misty's liking at all. Those men were too submissive and they unashamedly groveled at her feet. Therefore, Misty did not like any one of them at all.Sebastian, on the other, was different. She had given him so much profit, but he surprisingly was not grateful to her at all. He did not even take another look at her. He truly was worthy of being the richest man in South City. The more Misty looked at him, the more she was fond of him. She did not mind that Sebastian had been married. She also did not mind that Sebastian has had a few children. In the course of familiarizing herself with the Ford family, Misty had long known that Sebastian's father, Sean, has had many lovers when he was young. Sebastian's grandfather, Henry, also was a philanderer. The men in the Ford family were able to control both the vast grou
Aino was very strong. She had always been in good health, and her combat power was especially strong. After she suddenly bumped Misty, Misty stumbled and then continuously took a few steps back as she was caught off guard. Misty was wearing heels, so her heels accidentally got stuck in the drain cover. Gosh! Misty wanted to pull it out, but she just could not do it. She was unable to balance while standing on one foot, so she just kept hopping back and forth on foot, but she simply could not pull her heels out of the cover.Right at that moment, two other younger little children got out of the car. The slightly older boy was around five years old while the slightly younger boy was around three years old. Both the little boys were wearing their school uniforms, which were suits, and they were also wearing shades. The way they looked was incredibly mighty and also cocky. Both of them stood shoulder to shoulder in front of Misty.Louie raised his head. "Madam, what's the matter with you
Misty's tone was very gentle. However, Aino was not a fool as well. She immediately could tell that Misty was mocking her. Aino then got even angrier. She put her hands on her waist. "Ah, get away! Step aside!"The five-year-old Louie and also the two-and-a-half-year-old Chris also ran to their sister. Both the little boys were originally very well-mannered, and they even felt sympathetic for Misty as her foot was stuck earlier on. When they saw their sister was so angry, the two little boys immediately ran to their sister.Louie looked at Misty. "Let go of my dad!"Chris stomped his food and glared at Misty. "Ugly lady! Let go of my dad!"Misty was secretly beaming in her heart. She was indeed mocking Aino earlier on. She was laughing at these three children, who did not seem like they were brought up very well. They seemed very much like children from a humble family. They were not at all like the children of the Ford family, which made Misty could not help but think of the three
