"Watch your mouth! You're free to say whatever you want, but you can't speak recklessly!"The man who was grabbed by Alex was someone in his thirties, wearing a pair of glasses.Seeing his aggressive behavior, the man immediately started shouting, "Don't think you can get away with anything just because you're rich and powerful. Go ahead and prove that what I said was wrong then. Everyone in Gilsbury knows what happened to Nadia back then!"Nadia indeed had an incident in Gilsbury back then, but Lana and Liam had kept it under wraps. The level of secrecy surrounding this incident rivaled even that of state secrets. Not even the restaurant employees who worked closely with Nadia, nor Peter and Jane, were aware of Nadia's tragic past.Even to this day, if someone were to ask about it in Gilsbury, they would not be able to find out anything.However, as soon as this man spoke up, he explicitly mentioned that Nadia's incident in Gilsbury was widely known, which pointed to only one p
Following closely, a slender and upright figure emerged from the car.Soon after, the onlookers were treated to a visage resembling an adonis, accompanied by the inherent noble air the man naturally possessed.With a commanding presence and an aloof demeanor, this man had the ability to command respect from those who met his gaze."Who is that man? He looks so intimidating!""Who else could it be? Everyone who was supposed to come has already arrived. This man is definitely the heir to the Garrison family.""He's the heir to the Garrison family?""He's so good-looking!"Although Liam was handsome, the attitude of the people at the venue, especially women, toward him was simply worlds apart from that of Chris.When Chris appeared, the women took the initiative to approach and greet him, and some even walked the red carpet with him.However, when Liam appeared, everyone just looked at him from a distance, maintaining as much distance as possible.Therefore, Liam, who was not a
"What's wrong, Mr. Chris?"Lana approached Chris with a charming smile, linked her arm with his, and suddenly pressed her entire bosom against his arm.Chris immediately felt a shiver run down his spine. How revolting!"Mr. Chris, why do you look so terrible?"Lana reached out and touched Chris' face as she spoke.Chris quickly pushed her hand away and distanced himself from her. "Bitch! Stay away from me!"Having said that, Chris ran back to Liam's side as if he was running for his life."Liam, something's off!"Liam gazed at him coldly and said, "I've already warned you to stay away from other people's affairs."Chris was rendered speechless. He had indeed acted too rashly!However, at least he still managed to suppress his anger and refrain himself from bashing the portly man in the head!After the seemingly uneventful charity dinner, Chris was left in a bad mood by Lana's shameless behavior. He had no interest in mingling with the female celebrities, so he dejectedly
Emilia completely severed ties with Danny today. She officially joined other shareholders in impeaching him at the shareholder meeting. Not only that, news just came in stating that there would be a family meeting tomorrow to elect the new head of the Watson family. Needless to say, Emilia was the mastermind behind all this.In other words, Emilia had begun her counterattack. She wanted to gain control, be it in the family or the business. Danny had initially intended to bequeath these to Emilia after his death. Even though Nadia had returned to the Watson family, he hadn't planned to change the choice of his successor. From Danny's perspective, Emilia had always been the future head of the Watson family. However, her actions today deeply wounded Danny's heart. "Why is she in such a rush? What's meant to be hers will be hers eventually, so why is she doing this?" Until this moment, Danny was still trying to find excuses for Emilia's excessive behavior. To him, Emilia had
Even at this moment, Danny was unwilling to accept that Emilia was a person completely devoid of gratitude and loyalty as described by Wade and the others. He urged, "Emilia, tell me. What are they talking about? What does it mean?" Emilia's eyes were filled with contempt, and they exuded a strong sense of disdain. "They're basically telling you to get lost now. From now on, this house belongs to me." "What?" Danny slammed the table and instantly rose from his seat. "Say that again! How can you speak to your grandpa with such an attitude?" Emilia crossed her arms and looked at him coldly. "My grandpa? My grandpa's last name is Cooper, and he's moving in soon!" "You—" Danny's anger overwhelmed him. He clutched his chest as he sank back heavily into his seat. "You ungrateful brat. Do you still have any regard for me? Do you still have any regard for the law?""I'm sorry, but laws are made to protect smart people. As for idiots like you, just leave promptly and don't try to sto
Nothing was more painful for a person than being physically paralyzed while the mind remained clear. That was the situation Danny found himself in right now! Seeing him fall and unable to get up, Mitchell quickly walked over and kicked him twice. "Is he dead?" Emilia also approached. After seeing the angry look in Danny's eyes, she casually smiled at Mitchell. "Dad, don't worry. He's not dead." Mitchell was still in shock. He patted his chest and said, "That's good then. If he had died here on our first day moving in, wouldn't that be ominous?" Emilia was about to say something when the butler, Jonah Saunders, finally broke free from the bodyguards and rushed over. Upon witnessing Danny lying on the ground, Jonah anxiously scooped him up. "Mr. Watson Senior? What happened, Mr. Watson Senior? Can you hear me?" Danny, who had suffered a series of blows, shed tears of remorse from the corners of his eyes. If he had listened to Jonah and Wade earlier, none of this would hav
After receiving a call from Nadia, Lana immediately rushed to Wade's apartment in the downtown area. Although the house was over three thousand square feet, it was rather small compared to their family's large villa. Nonetheless, it was sufficient for the members of the Watson family. As Lana arrived, Nadia anxiously held her hand, saying, "Lana, please save my grandpa." Lana didn't promise her anything. Instead, she asked, "Where is he now?" "In the room," Nadia said as she led Lana to where Danny was. Jonah and other members of the Watson family were all in the room. Lying on the bed, Danny's body was stiff and completely still. Only his eyes were able to move. The despair in his eyes was something Lana had never seen in any patient before. Emilia drove Jonah and Danny out of the Watson Residence. Despite Jonah's urgency to get Danny the necessary medical attention, his financial limitations forced him to go against Danny's wishes and contact Wade. Upon learning of
Seeing Nadia and Alex looking like they had something to say, Lana led them to the hospital's garden. "Feel free to ask anything." "Lana, is my grandpa's condition severe?" Nadia asked."Whether it's severe or not, that's for the doctor to determine," Lana replied. Alex spoke with caution. "Aren't you a doctor too? Back then, Mrs. Turner Senior was in such a critical condition, and you managed to treat her." Lana nodded in response. "I did put a lot of effort into Mrs. Turner Senior's case, but your grandpa's situation is different." "How is it different?" Nadia inquired. Lana looked at Nadia and said with seriousness, "When Howard assaulted you, he didn't help you. Instead, he was thinking about his family's reputation!" Seeing Nadia and Alex both displaying perplexed expressions, Lana continued, "Back when you had trouble in Gilsbury, although Liam and I did our best to suppress it, we've already sought revenge for you. But he, on the other hand, treats his granddaughter
