Maxwell asked Carter to investigate his mother's past. After a few days, there was a reply. Sonnet happened to be there, so they listened together."Madam's father, Old Master Yates, was the one who started the business with Sir Brooks in the beginning. Old Master Yates helped Sir Brooks a lot. When the Brooks Corporation was slightly better, Old Master Yates independently opened his own business and did well in Harbor City."At that time, the Brooks Corporation and the Yates Corporation were two famous companies in Harbor City. Unfortunately, good times didn't last long. When Madam was about 20 years old, the Yates Corporation's father was suddenly involved in a political corruption incident. Old Master Yates committed suicide, and the Yates Corporation quickly closed down. Old Madam Yates and Madam Yates's whereabouts were unknown."On account of his relationship with Old Master Yates back then, Sir Brooks had been looking for Madam and Old Madam Yates. However, transportation and

"I think so. The first time I saw them, they were holding hands and looking very loving.""What happened after that? I heard that my mother-in-law fell seriously ill not long after she gave birth to Maxwell?""I'm not sure about the details. I only heard some gossip from the servants. They said that First Madam was sick. At that time, your father-in-law accompanied her in the hospital for a month. After she was discharged, I rarely saw her. At that time, we hadn't split up and ate together every day. Although we weren't particularly close to Ruth previously, we could at least see her every day during dinner and chat a little."But ever since she came back from the hospital, she no longer came out to eat with everyone. Your Second Uncle once asked Boss what was wrong with his wife. Boss said that she was weak after giving birth and couldn't be exposed to the wind."But I don't think it's that simple, because I realized that she doesn't seem to care much about the child anymore. I of

Her heart ached for him, but she couldn't admit it.Sonnet smacked her lips and replied, "I don't feel sorry for him! I'm mainly afraid that the company will be in chaos without CEO Strombold!""Alright, alright. Your CEO Brooks is very capable. Zachary is not around. He has the energy to manage the company well!" Juliette waved her hand and said.Sonnet smiled innocently and didn't say anything. She had no choice. Married people were the most important!The four chatted and laughed as they ate hotpot. The atmosphere was very good.Sonnet ate spicy food and drank a lot. After a while, she got up to go to the washroom.As she reached the bathroom, she suddenly saw a familiar figure from afar. She took a closer look and was a little surprised. She didn't expect to see Yves Yates when she came to eat hotpot!Yves had just come out of the washroom and was walking towards the private room with her back facing her. She didn't see Sonnet, so Sonnet didn't greet her.She thought that Y

"It's the Brooks family's rule! To prevent the Brooks family's descendants from messing around with men and women outside and affecting the operation of Brooks Corporation, the old man specially set a rule. That is, if you're not the Brooks family's legitimate son, you can't control Brooks Corporation."If Matteo is an illegitimate child, then he has to hand over the power of the CEO. Not only that, but he also has to give up shares in Brooks Corporation! Because according to the old man's rules, Winston can't pass shares to him!"Monica held Sonnet’s hand as she spoke. "Your Second Uncle and I have limited abilities, so I told you about this. Go back and discuss this with Maxwell. Investigate this matter properly. If you can confirm that Matteo isn't a legitimate child, Maxwell can openly ask Matteo to hand over the shares! At that time, Maxwell will be the head of Brooks Corporation!"At this point, she paused and smiled innocently. "We're not greedy for providing you with such be

"That year, my father suddenly told her that she was pregnant. Yvonne was very surprised and said that she wasn't. My father said that even if she wasn't, she had to pretend to be pregnant. It turned out that my father had a woman outside and that woman was pregnant. My father said he would bring the child back to raise after giving birth."Yvonne had no choice but to pretend to be pregnant. Later on, she supposedly went back to her parent's house, but she didn't go there. She just went to a place my father arranged for her to stay and wait for my biological mother to give birth. Later on, my biological mother gave birth to me, and my father carried me to Yvonne and asked her to bring me home," Matteo replied faintly."Then who is your biological mother? Is she willing to let her child be taken away just like that?"Matteo shook his head. "I heard that she's dead…"Sonnet didn't say anything. She was puzzled. How could it be such a coincidence that Winston wanted to take the child
