Jonathan obediently obliged, “Yes, of course. Uhm… Dad, I don’t have the money to pay for that little girl’s medical expenses. Can you lend me your supplementary card?”Shayne frowned, then shot him a disgusted look. “I already got my own house when I was your age. Why are you asking me for a supplementary card?”“Yes, yes, yes, Dad, you’re the best. How can I compare to you? Treat the supplementary card as a loan to me. I’ll pay you back after I graduate.”Shayne shot a look at him. “I’ll pa

“Verian Mont, 21 years old, a graduate from North City University, never been in a relationship, healthy…”The man sitting across her closed the file after reading the document. His eyebrows twitched, and he asked, “Are you sure you want to be a surrogate?”Verian Mont clutched the hem of her dress with looks of worry and anxiety. Then, she said, “I’m very sure. I need this money.”“How much do you need?”Startled, she muttered softly and said, “10…10 million.”His frown deepened. “This must be kept a secret. Thus, you are not allowed to leave this place throughout the 10 months of pregnancy until birth. Also, you are prohibited from contacting anyone. Are you able to do it?”Verian Mont’s knuckles turned white from clenching her fists too hard. She took a deep breath. Trembling, she said, “I…, I will promise you, but on one condition.”“Say it.”“After signing this agreement, I want 10 million to be deposited into this account as soon as I get pregnant. I need it urgently.”‘Hah, I r
“Verian Mont! Why are you here?”Suddenly, the cold voice of a middle-aged woman resonated across the room. She turned around and saw her stepmother, Queena Sheen, walking in from outside.The scumbag couple upstairs looked down as they heard the commotion.A hint of panic flashed across Jensen’s eyes. “Verian, you, why are you back?”Verian Mont sneered and stared at Jensen. “This is my house, why can’t I come back?”Wanelle Sheen, who was still in Jensen’s embrace, raised the corner of her red lips and scoffed, “Your house? This villa does not belong to the Mont Family anymore.”Verian Mont frowned, “What do you mean?”Dressed in a mini skirt and high heels, Wanelle Sheen walked down the stairs. “Your father, Grayson Mont, committed suicide by jumping off a building 10 months ago. He left behind a huge pile of debt. This villa would have been mortgaged if it wasn’t for my mother! Thus, this house does not belong to the Mont Family anymore. It is now the property of the Sheen’s Family
The driver immediately got out of the car and carried the limp body into the car. It was then that he realized she was carrying an urn.How unlucky…The driver tugged the urn from her hand, but it did not budge. Hesitantly, he looked at the man sitting beside him with trembling eyes. “Pre… President Fudd, this…”The man cast a cold glance at the urn in the woman’s embrace. He said calmly, “Just drive.”The driver quickly went back to his seat and restarted the car.The heavy rain took a turn for the worse as the sky gradually grew darker.The interior of the car was dim. Heaton Fudd lowered his gaze and looked at the woman lying next to him. Her long, black hair was soaked and stuck to her pallid, palm-sized face with blood still trickling down from the wound on her pale arm. She looked fragile and battered.It did not seem like she was trying to feign an accident.The heavy rain made the road slippery and the surroundings foggy. As the driver made a sharp turn, the petite woman was th
Three years later, at North City Airport, a news flash was broadcasted in the hall.“North City’s latest financial news: Fudd Enterprise bought out the land along Navy Road and is planning to build a large-scale entertainment center in the area. It was reported that Navy Road was surrounded by wealthy neighborhoods. Demolition will be a difficult issue as there are a lot of high-class residential and villas in the area. Today, we are honored to interview the CEO of Fudd’s Group, Heaton Fudd. Let’s take a look at how he will solve this problem.”Verian Mont was attracted by the massive screen in the hall as soon as she disembarked the plane.A man dressed in a gray suit and a black tie appeared on the screen. He had porcelain skin but did not look girly at all. He was very handsome and had well defined facial features. His cold aura was unforgettable.The man’s clasped hands rested on his lap and he was calm when facing the camera. A faint smile spread across his thin lips. “Nobody will
It was 8pm. Guin brought Verian, who was well dressed up, to the grandeur dinner party.A row of identical limited edition luxury cars were parked outside the venue. Those who attended the party were all wealthy and influential people like presidents, socialites, and scions. Of course, there were also exceptions like Verian Mont, the famous damsel in distress of North City.Although the incident was over, some past could not be that easily erased from people’s hearts.Guin pointed at a tall figure who was standing not far away from them and whispered to Verian, “That is Heaton Fudd, do you want to talk to him? However, Rainie, let me give you a gentle advice, think twice before you act.”Glamour shrouded the man. He was surrounded by gorgeous and outstanding women.Verian took a deep breath and the corner of her lips curled up into a faint smile. She grabbed a glass of champagne and was about to walk toward the man in her high heels. Suddenly, Guin grabbed her arm. “Are you going to ap
A black Maybach drove past two rows of tall Chinese parasol trees and arrived at the Fudd’s mansion hidden among them.Shrouded by the dark night, the Fudd’s mansion appeared more solemn and lofty than ever.Heaton Fudd entered the house and saw John Fudd sitting on the sofa in the living room. He greeted politely, “Father.”John Fudd’s hoary hand was clutching onto his crutch as he snorted coldly, “If you see me as your father, find yourself a wife quickly. Find Little Jelly Bean a mother! Don’t wait until I’m dead and you’re still not married!”For the past three years, John’s biggest complaint about Heaton was none other than him failing to find girlfriend and getting married. Recently, the old man had been urging him to get married frequently.Heaton dealt with the situation calmly. “I’m fine with the daughters from the Quinn, Zharko, Lewis, and Sullivan family. I don’t mind marrying anybody. However, you do know that Little Jelly Bean doesn’t like those ladies at all.”Fueled by a
