"Who are you? Who would we know who are you? Aren't you my brother's colleague? You're already so old. You're certainly a useless person, so you're here to flatter my brother!" Chloe looked at Elsa disdainfully."Where are your parents? Did they not come?" Elsa asked with a cold expression."Does whether our parents come or not have anything to do with you?" Chloe said."Have nothing to do with me?" Elsa sneered miserably. "When I was looking for my child back then, I had once met your parents. I asked them if they had seen my child. In the end, your parents told me that the person who bought my child had taken the train heading toward the south. I listened to them, and I went south on a train. I had searched through the entire southern area, and I still couldn't find my son. A few days ago, my son showed me a picture of our parents. They were already older, but their appearance did not change much. I recognized them at a glance. It turned out that they were the couple back then who
"It's just that they are too insatiably greedy," Sebastian said emotionally.There were too many insatiably greedy people in this world. To have a son that could continue the family line, the Payne family did not hesitate to snatch away forty years of someone else's happiness, which led to Elsa becoming a nun while thinking of her son all the time.Vireo nodded, then smiled and said miserably, "That's right. I wanted to do my part in taking care of them, but they just can't let me go. Maybe that's just my life. Forget it. Just let them be. It's fine if I just turn a deaf ear. What mattered to me the most is my knowledge in medicine, my wife, and also my mom."After saying that, Vireo looked at Minerva again. "There's Minerva as well."He had only known Minerva for a few days, but the child had been addressing him as her uncle and Isadora as her aunt every day. After she had met Vireo's mother, she also addressed her as her grandmother. It was as if she was the Payne family's little
Gloria smiled while looking at Sabrina. "What's the matter? Am I not allowed to at my age?"Sabrina touched her mother's hand. "Mom, you're only in your early fifties. You're a few years younger than Madam Elsa, and you're in very good shape. Of course, you can date."Her mother sighed slightly. "Then, that's alright. Don't worry. I know what I'm doing.""Mm-hmm. I believe you, Mom."Since her mother already said that, Sabrina did not want to say anything else anymore. After all, her mother was already an older adult and was not someone she could criticize anymore. She was simply going to pay more attention and care more about her mother.After she sent her mother home, the child played happily in the yard and Sabrina chatted with her mother on the porch. Sabrina was observing her mother, and her mother was not distracted at all. All she had eyes for were the few children."Aino, don't run so quickly. They won't be able to catch up with you this way.""Oh gosh, dear, you have to
Only then did Sebastian say, "You'll definitely be able to get yourself a boyfriend that is to your liking.""Mm-hmm!" Misty nodded solemnly. "Don't worry. When the time comes, I'll invite you to my wedding!""Alright!Sebastian smiled. "Let's go. Let's go to the conference room.""Mm-hmm!"The meeting went on very smoothly, and both parties got the maximum profits on the contract. At noon, the high-ranking executives from both the Ford Group and the White Group had lunch together. Initially, the people who were supposed to have lunch together were not that many and it was only a few tables full. To make the atmosphere livelier, all of them gathered in the hall on the second floor. Halfway through their lunch gathering, they suddenly heard someone shouting at the lobby on the first floor. It so happened that Sebastian was by the railing, so he was able to clearly see the drunk who was creating a commotion on the first floor. That man looked like he was about 40 years old. He was v
The man in the photo clearly was the drunk who had created a commotion on the first floor of the hotel earlier on. He looked really young. It was not even too much to say that he was thirty-five years old. Such a man would be going after Gloria? Sebastian felt a little unhappy. After he had looked through the photos, he sent them to Sabrina, and Sabrina was shocked. She also had never expected that the man who was courting her mother was actually that young.Sabrina was working in her office. There was a huge pile of design drafts on her plate that needed her to approve and sign. She wholeheartedly wanted to go and see her mother as she was afraid her mother was scammed, but because of her work, she was unable to leave.While she was swamped with work, Sabrina thought of an old friend. Ruth had been in Kidon City during that period. She had said that she wanted to come to South City, but she never managed to because of her children. However, that did not stop Sabrina from giving a ca
Gosh! She even had both of her children with her. She better not be at any more of a disadvantage.Sabrina stopped her car and rushed straight toward the people who were arguing. Just as she got to the outer circle of the crowd, she heard Ruth shouting. "Who are you? Who are you? Isadora is my friend. What do you want to do?""Your friend?" A sharp voice immediately came into Sabrina's ears.Sabrina suddenly felt that the voice was very familiar. It was as if she had heard it from somewhere before. Oh! She suddenly remembered that this voice had appeared at Vireo's house the day before. That was the voice of the eldest sister of the Payne family, Chloe Payne. Once she heard that voice, Sabrina got furious. She immediately rushed forward and ran through the crowd to Isadora, who was holding a lunch box, and asked with a stern voice, "What the hell do you want?"Chloe sneered. "It's you? I saw you at my brother's house yesterday. All of you said that you were my brother's colleagues.
Sabrina was stunned when she heard what Chloe said. It was not a big deal to call the police as it was simply a dispute among family, so why would Chloe blurt out saying that her parents were also there?While Sabrina was deep in thought, Abigail suddenly said, "So, what if our parents are here? Just call the police. They were the ones who beat us up. Chloe, what are you afraid of?"Chloe rolled her eyes at Abigail. "Have you forgotten how our parents got our brother…"Sabrina sneered. That was right. Vireo's parents had paid someone to buy Vireo back then. They bought him, which was illegal. No wonder Chloe did not want them to call the police. This family was truly shameless, and it was no wonder why Vireo has always wanted to stop any interactions with them.At that moment, the second sister of the Payne family, Ashnah, said, "Chloe, just call the police. In any case, is this woman who had beaten us up. Think about it. Our brother had been brought up by our parents. He is also a
They even put on a show in their hometown, the small county. They had their grandparents and parents sit on that street that they were at and cried their hearts out. "What sins have the Payne family committed? We had fed him, clothed him, and put him through college. In the end, he did all sorts of heinous acts.""Woman, that damned thing was spoiled by you! You had spoiled him too much since he was a child. He is now a criminal because you've spoiled him! Look at him now. He actually is capable of murder and arson! God! We have lived here for generations, and we have never had any black sheep of the family like this. This damned person. We definitely have to cut all ties with him! We have never had such a person in the Payne family!"A few years ago, the entire family had vowed to cut all ties with Vireo on the street. Everybody on that street had seen their resolution. A few years had passed since then, and they never had ever gotten any news about Vireo. Maybe Vireo had already di
