Thank you readers!

Joseph was a little annoyed by Harriman’s attitude. He took a deep breath and tried to play the emotional card. “Harriman, we’ve known each other for decades. Can’t you say a word to me?”

Harriman’s face was still devoid of a smile. “You said that we’ve known each other for decades, so you should know better who I’m loyal to.”

Seeing that he couldn’t even take in the emotional card, Joseph’s steps became heavier. He knew that today’s matter couldn’t be taken lightly.

“Old Madam, Mr. Joseph is here.” Harriman knocked on the door.

After a long while, Joline’s tired voice came from the other side of the door.

“Come in.”

Harriman opened the door and let Joseph in.

The first thing Joseph saw was Joline, who was standing by the window and looking out into the distance. Seeing her slightly hunched back, he seemed to finally realize that his good sister was not young anymore. He was five years older than her and was already 71 years old.

Joseph then turned his gaze away and saw Robert tied up in the corner of the reception room with his mouth gagged. The man’s eyes clearly lit up for a moment when he met Joseph’s gaze, but it was only for a moment before the light was extinguished.

Joseph was initially infuriated when he saw his son being treated this way. However, the moment he saw the light in Robert’s eyes go out, his shock immediately overcame his anger.

What exactly did Robert do to make him so obedient? Joseph almost lost his balance for a moment.

He turned to look at Joline with a pleading look and his voice trembled. “Sister, can we sit down and have a good chat like we used to?”

Joline sighed, turned around, and sat back on the sofa. She pointed at the sofa opposite her. “You should sit down too.”

Joseph hesitated for a moment. He dragged his heavy feet and sat on the sofa opposite him.

Joline looked at the walking stick in his hand, and a hint of nostalgia flashed in her eyes. “This is the walking stick that Grandfather left for you. He cherished it the most at that time. I still remember that I was six years old and you were eleven years old. You used your music teacher’s music score to tempt me and made me steal this cane. In the end, we were discovered by Grandfather and he punished both of us.”

“Yeah, it’s been almost 50 years.” Joseph stroked the embossed on the crutch. “When Grandfather passed away, he said that I’ve always remembered this walking stick, so he specifically made it clear in his will that he would leave it to me.”

Actually, he was just a child. Why would he like a walking stick? However, he was fascinated by an animated film at that time, and the totem printed on the protagonist’s body happened to be similar to the one embossed on this cane, so he remembered it.

Jonne signeu, “Yean, Deen years. 1 cnougnc we could still togetner anu chat like this when we were 80.”

The reception room suddenly fell silent. Joseph’s tongue was bitter. He opened his mouth for a long time, but he couldn’t say a word.

Joline pushed a file to Joseph.

Then, she stood up and said, “Today is Edwin’s big day. Brother, as his grandfather-in-law, you should help him hold the fort.”

Joline opened the door of the guest room. When she was about to step out, Joseph’s slightly obscure voice finally came from behind her. “Joline, I just don’t want to give up.”

Joline paused for a moment and walked out without looking back.

At 4 0’clock in the afternoon, all the guests who had received the invitation had arrived at the Anderson Manor on time, no matter what kind of mentality they had.

Joline was wearing a silver evening gown and stood on the stage in high spirits. She announced the start of the engagement party.

Joseph, who was standing below the stage, cheered loudly and took the lead in clapping.

Outside the banquet hall, Edwin placed Caroline’s hand on his arm. “Are you nervous?”

Caroline felt her own heartbeat and said honestly, “A little.”

Edwin chuckled. “That’s good.”

Harriman and Oleg pushed open the banquet hall’s door together. Edwin reached out his right hand and held Caroline’s hand that was on his arm. Under everyone’s gaze, step by step, they walked into the banquet hall firmly and slowly. They made a promise that they would spend the rest of their lives together.

That night, a gunshot was heard in the Smith family’s master’s study. Joseph fell on his desk.

Joline, who was sitting on the balcony and flipping through old photos, looked up at the sky and muttered, “Is it going to rain?”
