Bianca's face turned pale. She thought she could use her family's power to pay off the debt and escape Zachary. But she never imagined that someone as irrational as Zachary, let alone someone as small as her, could easily handle her family affairs. What she did was foolishly drag her family into this challenging situation.In the face of her father's questioning, Daniel was about to defend himself but was interrupted by Mr. Smith's agitation. "Do you know how to solve this? What have you done? You and Zachary ran to fight each other! We cannot solve your problem, nor can we help your sister. Instead, we have brought more serious troubles!" His mood was not good, he put one hand on his chest, breathing heavily, and the other hand held onto the table behind him to support himself. "You think money can solve this problem, but have you ever thought about how our family can deal with him if he doesn't want money? You disappoint me."At this point, Mr. Smith was genuinely heartbroken. After
Bianca drove to the address provided by Mrs. Edith. After walking for nearly an hour, she saw a large forest before her. The luxurious villa of Mr. Zachary, which was incomparable, was hidden in this dense forest.Holding the basket of fruits and flowers she had bought, she rang the bell and walked up to the door. After a while, a man who looked like a butler came out. His severe and indifferent face made Bianca a bit worried."Hello, I'd like to visit Mr. Zachary," Bianca said."I'm sorry, are you Bianca?" The butler knew her! Bianca was a little surprised. "Yes, it's me.""Please come in."She thought that it would not be easy to enter the door of this kind of family. Unexpectedly, she was allowed in quickly, and they even knew who she was... That was wonderful. Did Zachary predict that she would come?Bianca followed the butler, curiously asking about the situation. Unfortunately, the other party walked straight ahead, and she didn't dare to disturb him, so she had to follow silent
Bianca's mouth dropped open in surprise. This was the most expensive imported fruit she had ever bought on a particular trip, yet she hardly ever got to eat it and forced herself to eat it to satisfy her craving! Although Mrs. Edith didn't say anything, she couldn't help but smirk at the sight. Mrs. Megan's intention to drive away her guest was evident when she threw away the gift she had sent without a word. However, Bianca couldn't leave without completing something.Her family was still waiting for her news. She smiled and said, "I'm sorry to ruin your mood so I won't bother you anymore. I'll go outside and wait for Zachary. Excuse me." Mrs. Megan hoped she would leave immediately. Bianca avoided her gaze, but she didn't back down. This made Mrs. Megan very angry. She coldly said, "You're a girl who does something like this and still wants to flirt with my son?" Bianca spoke softly, "I didn't come here to bother him.I made a mistake, so I came here to apologize." "No need." Mrs. M
Bianca's words caught Mrs. Edith by surprise, and she quickly dodged the flying object. The orange fell onto the car's floor, and Mrs. Edith realized it was just an orange. She laughed angrily and picked it up. As she was about to retaliate, she noticed another fruit in Bianca's hand. Bianca picked up a clean lychee and smiled at the housekeeper. "Don't waste food." Mrs. Edith was sitting in the backseat, mockingly, lowering the window to look at Bianca. "Bianca, you're still waiting here." Bianca gave her a forced smile. She had no energy left to deal with Mrs. Edith's provocations and just wanted her to go as soon as possible. However, how could Bà Edith pass up this opportunity to taunt her? "Did you really do this? Who hurt Zachary? Is it your current boyfriend? I asked your mother, but she's just as clueless." Bianca shifted from a calm demeanor to an indifferent one. She raised her hand to toss the orange back into Mrs. Edith's car. "I'm sorry for causing you trouble. I w
"If I had known this earlier, perhaps you wouldn't have encountered such a big trouble today," Bà Edith remarked. After saying that, she suddenly increased the pressure on her fingers while pinching Bianca's cheek. When she released her finger, Bianca's cheek had turned noticeably red. Although she gritted her teeth due to the pain, Bianca still endured it and continued to smile. "Well, now that Bà Edith has said that, I can be at ease," Bianca replied. Once Bà Edith had vented her anger, she became utterly cheerful. She gracefully turned around, heading towards the iron gate, with her car following behind. The gate closed, leaving only Bianca outside. The forced smile on her face disappeared instantly, replaced by weariness. What she had just said came from the depths of her heart. Compared to her family, giving up her pride to kneel before Bà Edith was truly insignificant. Her adoptive parents had once saved her life; if possible, she would risk everything to protect them. Bianc
Mrs. Edith's heart sank as Zachary questioned her with a cold and stern expression. She realized the situation was not good."Well, how was this discovered and reported in the news?" She replied, trying to maintain a somewhat composed demeanor, though her smile seemed forced.It was only then that Zachary's face cracked into a smile, but it was a smile that grew colder by the moment as if he had been doused with a bucket of ice water."Why didn't your son, Adam, inform you about this afterward?" The conversation abruptly shifted to Adam, and Mrs. Edith's face turned paler.She was no fool and could naturally hear Zachary's words' implications. "...Are you saying this information came from Adam?"Zachary neither nodded nor shook his head. Mrs. Megan and Lorena sensed something was amiss and frowned at Mrs. Edith.Mrs. Edith suddenly felt like a pack of vicious wolves surrounded her, making it difficult for her to escape. "Impossible! Adam wouldn't do this! Zachary, are you sure... are
Lorena blinked and cooed, "What's wrong with a little misunderstanding between us? I also want her to give up! Meeting her makes me hate her!"Zachary's eyes grew darker, and his words became even more indifferent. "The situation in the company has just stabilized, and I don't want any more baseless rumors."Lorena, unhappy, looked at him for a while but saw no sign of him softening his stance. Angrily, she turned and left, muttering to herself.By the time they finished dinner and returned home, it was already dark outside. There was no sign of Bianca at the gate.Lorena cheerfully said, "Ha ha, she's finally gone!"Zachary, dissatisfied, glanced at where Bianca's car had been parked earlier. That damn woman had no perseverance in seeking help when disaster loomed. This was the end of their family.Bianca didn't dare to return to the villa, fearing to face the gaze of her family, especially Mrs. Mirabel. When she returned to her small room exhausted, she felt someone was inside.Mrs.
Taking advantage of the moment when Lorena was distracted by her conversation, Bianca angrily pushed her away and finally managed to break free from her relentless grip."What's wrong with you? You're exhausted from fighting and still want to continue?"After pushing her away, Bianca was also very tired. She stood beside her car, breathing heavily, and leaned against it for support.Lorena stumbled back a few steps after being pushed but quickly regained her balance. Without hesitation, she lunged again, but this time, it wasn't at Bianca but at her car door."Come here!"Bianca realized what she was about to do, but it was too late to stop her. Lorena reached her hand through the car window, grabbed the insulated lunchbox Bianca had placed on the seat, unscrewed the lid, and poured the entire still-warm soup into Bianca's car.Bianca anxiously reached for the insulated container, but just as she did, Lorena turned back and shoved it into her. At that moment, the remaining soup and ch
