When he heard of Lord Schulz’s arrangement, Sheldon nearly wanted to vomit blood! ‘It was clearly Lord Schulz who f*cking created so many problems, but I need to go to Australia to avoid the spotlight?! What the f*ck is going on!’ Thinking of this, he immediately said, “Dad, I can accept it if you want me to avoid the public eye. However, there’s no need for me to go to Australia, right? There are still many things to do in the company, plus I need to think of ways to salvage my relationship with Helen!” Lord Schulz coldly replied, “If you stay here, the paparazzi will follow your every move. Don’t you forget, there are so many families out there who are just waiting for a chance to bring us down. You’re their breaking point!” “Thus, I think it’s better if you hide in Australia. Don’t we still have a seaside villa in Queensland? You can go and relax there. As for the matters here, I’ll help you.” Sheldon almost collapsed. He angrily sneered in his heart, ‘T

For any teenager in their twenties to suddenly find out about their father having an illegitimate daughter, it would be hard to accept this kind of reality. This was especially so for Sophie. She was the same as her mother, Helen. Both had serious mysophobia in regards to relationships. Despite never having dated anyone till today, Sophie would certainly be like her mother and insist on divorcing her husband if the same thing happened to her. Thus, even though it was hard for her to accept this reality at the moment, she fully agreed with her mother’s decision. Regarding this matter, Jaime had a little bit of male chauvinism. To him, it was impossible for his father to be loyal to marriage for a lifetime based on his identity. A wealthy man would rarely be satisfied with only one partner of the opposite gender. Hence, it was normal to flirt outside. After all, he grew up in an upper-class social circle from a young age. In this circle, he had

Sophie quickly said, “Okay, Mom. Have a good rest tonight. I’ll call you in the morning!”“Okay.”After Sophie ended the call, Jaime said with some concern, “Sophie, Dad has always been a bit evasive about Aurous Hill. If he finds out that we’re going there with Mom, will he be mad?”Sophie snorted coldly, “Who cares? He has an illegitimate daughter, and he even dared to bring her home and put her under the eyes of our family. Why doesn’t he think that we will be mad too?!”After a pause, Sophie said angrily, “Seriously, I want to confront him about this! Us going to Aurous Hill is a sign for him to know that it’s all his fault!”Jaime said awkwardly, “Hey, we are his children. It isn’t nice for us to bring this up or even confront him about it…”With that, Jaime added, “Think about it, how many of those rich and famous guys in the world are completely loyal to their wives? I bet most of them have an affair or two outside. Dad was just confused at that time. He is still considere

When Jefferson let out a sigh, it made everyone somewhat grimace in regret.Lady Dunn hurriedly pinched him on the waist and chided in a low voice, “Shush! Stop rubbing it in! Hurry and get in to get ready for dinner!”Jefferson sighed and said, “Well, Helen is so big now. She is more open-minded than we are. I’m also just stating my opinion. You don’t have to be too discreet about it.”Helen nodded and said seriously, “That’s right, Mom. I’m not angry or sad at all. You don’t have to be so sensitive.”Lady Dunn was shocked. “Helen, you’re truly not angry at Sheldon for keeping this secret from you for so many years?”Helen said earnestly, “Nope, I’m not angry. Instead, I feel relieved.”Jefferson laughed. “Wonderful! I’m happy to know that you’ve moved on! Frankly speaking, I’ve always felt that you’ve been unhappy over the years. Now that you’ve moved on, I’m heartily happy for you.”Helen nodded with a smile. “Thanks, Father!”Jefferson laughed out loud and beckoned, “Let’s
