“Of course not!”“If that’s the case, why are you so reluctant to collect the money? This money rightfully belongs to you. If you really don’t want to use the money, you can save it up and treat it as a fund for Maxwell. However, if you don’t collect this sum of money, it’ll be transferred to Brooks Corporation and get divided among the members of the Brooks family. Don’t you think that’s a pity?”After hearing what he said, Sonnet immediately asked, “Can’t you just save up the money for Maxwell?”“No, we’re just following the terms listed in the will of Maxwell’s father. If you’d like to save the money, you must collect the money and save it for him.” Sonnet recalled how Welson Brooks had brought his men over to catch her in the act of being unfaithful to Maxwell. She guessed that Welson would not treat Maxwell well. Furthermore, the Brooks family did not need any more money. They would not appreciate it if the money was transferred to them. After having such thoughts, she t

“You must be obedient when we visit the Cole family tomorrow, alright?” Sonnet told him. “I’ll be obedient.” “If anyone says something bad to you, act like you didn’t hear anything. I’ll protect you. Don’t be afraid, alright?” “With wifey next to my side, I won’t be afraid!” Not only would he not embarrass her, but he would help her prove all those people wrong! After getting off work the next day, Sonnet went home to get her makeup done. When they were about to head off, a luxurious Rolls-Royce drove over. The chauffeur got down and told them, “Mr. Pine sent me over to fetch you and Young Master Brooks.” Sonnet did not reject his offer. She got into the car with Maxwell. After getting clarification from the chauffeur, Sonnet found out that the car had been prepared for Maxwell’s marriage based on Old Master Brooks’s will. The car had just arrived. The chauffeur’s name was Benson Sun. He would work as Sonnet and Maxwell’s personal chauffeur in the future. Sonnet felt

“Yes, my sister works as a teacher in the village. It’s an extremely meaningful occupation!” Jessie replied. She made it seem like she was extremely close with Sonnet. Louise nodded. She looked at Sonnet and asked,” One of my friends would like to work as a volunteer teacher. Are there any conditions for one to work as a teacher in the village? Are there any minimum qualifications?” “I don’t think the qualifications will be high,” someone interrupted. The woman then asked Martha, “What kind of certification does your daughter hold?” Martha waved her hands and said, “Oh, she doesn’t have high qualifications at all.” She looked extremely embarrassed to answer their questions. The more she said so, the more curious the women were. “She must have studied a lot. You’re always humble, Mrs. Cole!” “I only have a high school certificate,” Sonnet replied with a smile. Everyone fell silent after hearing what she said. The gazes that everyone had directed at Sonnet changed sligh

Harold immediately asked his son to vacate his seat for Kaiden. Kaiden exchanged a few formalities with Harold. He then turned around and caught sight of Maxwell. He was slightly stunned. “Huh? Isn’t that my cousin?” One of the women suddenly asked, “Do you know Mrs. Cole’s son-in-law?” “Of course, I know him. This is…” Before Kaiden could finish speaking, Harold got up from his chair suddenly. His gaze was fixed on a spot behind Kaiden. Kaiden turned around and caught sight of a man dressed in a white and silver-colored business suit. The man was walking towards them. His expression immediately changed after seeing the man. He nodded and bent down while greeting him. “Young Master Gunn is here!” The guest that had just arrived was Hayden Gunn! There was a shocked expression on Harold’s face as well. He made his way forward to greet him, “Young Master Gunn, why are you here?” Although they had mingled into Harbor City’s upper social circle with much difficulty, they

Logan was less polite than Hayden. He ignored Harold and Martha as he looked at Sonnet and asked, “Are they your parents?”“Yes.” “Isn’t your father hospitalized because of cancer?”“That’s my foster father.” Sonnet paused and added, “My foster father has raised me since I was small.” Logan nodded and told Fatso, who was standing behind him, “Bring the box of premium cigars over from the car. We’ll give it to Mr. Cole as his wife’s birthday present.” “Don’t be so courteous, Mr. Scott. It’s our honor that you’re even here today!” Harold immediately said. “It’s not expensive at all. You can light the cigars whenever you feel like smoking,” Logan said as he sat down next to Hayden. The Cole family felt even more out of place now. Logan and Hayden were now the main characters of the banquet. The guests of the banquet all came over to make conversation and greet them. They all tried to take the opportunity to get on Logan and Hayden’s good sides. Logan and Hayden did not ta
