Ingrid bit her lip as she fixed her gaze on the phone on the table. She didn't have much time left.After seeing how Ingrid was crying while staring at her phone, Charlotte took out her phone in a moment of determination. She had just launched her contact list when Wanda stopped her."You can't make the call! Only Ingrid can do it for herself. None of us can make decisions for her. She's in this mess now because Linda made the wrong decision for her back then. Do you want to repeat the same mistake?"Wanda saw through Ingrid's intention to shift all the blame onto Linda, but she didn't say it out loud.She had known Ingrid for some time now and knew that the latter always pretended to be undecided when, in reality, she had already made up her mind.Ingrid had always found ways to absolve herself and let others take the risks for her. Wanda felt Linda was too good for Ingrid back then. Linda had done all the dirty work for Ingrid and ended up in such a miserable situation.Wanda c

Ned's Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed and pursed his lips.Almost instinctively, he defended Angeline, saying, "Angeline didn't save Simon to be repaid. That's why she didn't leave any information behind at the time. "She said she wouldn't seek Simon out to tell him she was his savior but suggested that Ingrid, the beneficiary, tell him the truth. This way, both parties' losses would be minimized."Unfortunately, I trusted what Ms. Davis said back then, believing that Ingrid was already in contact with international directors through the Norwalk Corporation. If she lost that opportunity, she'd be sidelined."Furthermore, the fact that Norwalk Corporation chose her as their spokesperson because she was Simon's savior was widely publicized then. "If the public were to find out that my ex-wife was the true savior, Ingrid would be tossed into the spotlight again, and the old accusations of her being a homewrecker would resurface, destroying her future!"He sighed and continued,

Wanda's other concern was whether the broadcasting companies might classify Ingrid as a disreputable artist. If that happened, her career would be effectively over.Wanda had placed too much hope in this press conference, thinking that Ned's presence would divert the reporters' attention toward him. She hadn't anticipated that he would refuse to engage with the reporters and storm out instead.Wanda still didn't fully understand Ned's personality. He had never been an easy person to deal with. As a pampered son of a wealthy family, he had always been difficult. He would only show his softer side to those he loved.Because of his guilt toward Ingrid, he had already appeared more approachable toward her. Moreover, the reporter's question earlier had hit a nerve with Ned. This man, who had gotten away with all sorts of misdeeds in Oceanford, was not someone who would sit politely and answer those questions.Wanda supported Ingrid and walked her back to the hotel lounge from where th

The engagement party was unnecessary to Angeline. She even considered it a waste of her time.Nathaniel told the event planner to save as much of Angeline's time as possible, ideally just having her make an appearance. She was extremely busy and sometimes did not even have time to eat.The event planner had heard of Nathaniel's reputation as a devoted fiancé and assured him repeatedly that the event wouldn't be too tiring for Angeline and wouldn't take up too much of her time.It would end quickly after a brief introduction on stage, allowing her to rest or chat with her friends."Will you return to the old Lawson residence for dinner with me today?" Angeline asked after signing the last document and grabbing her coat."Yes! Mr. Lawson Senior called and asked me to go back with you," Nathaniel said, lifting his eyes from his phone. "Are you hungry? Have some macarons before we leave. I specially had them bought for you.""Let's take them with us. Xavier and Yasmine would love t

"Mom…" Angeline called out when she noticed Jessica not wearing a coat.She quickly draped her own coat over her mother and added, "Why aren't you asleep? Is there something wrong?""Are the kids asleep?" she asked with a gentle smile while adjusting the coat Angeline had placed over her shoulders.Her expression was warm and composed, showing no signs of her usual mental instability."Yes, they just fell asleep," Angeline replied with a grin.She could tell how much her mother adored the children. As Robert had mentioned, Jessica's episodes had significantly decreased since Xavier and Yasmine came into their lives."Then come with me! I have something for you," Jessica said happily, walking toward her room.After a few steps, she turned back to wave at Angeline, gesturing her to follow. Angeline closed the door and followed her mother. Seeing Jessica's cheerful demeanor, Angeline couldn't help but smile as well.When Angeline entered Jessica's room, she saw jewelry scattered a
