Although I didn’t think deeply about it, my heart was suddenly struck as if sommerne har pulled a thread, causing a sharp pain! 

Yet I didn’t dwell on it and was taken directly to Starlight Media by Fredricn. 

Karina was bothere 

Due to the chaos caused by the Thorne family. I was afraid of any potential frouble, sut didn’t send Karana to school that day. 

Karina was led by Themas 

“Mummy!” She quickly rushed into my arms. Even though it had only been a few hours, she missed me dearly 

I lowered myself to catch her small body, feeling the soft and tender touch in my embrace, and my once froen heart softened instantly 

“Is Karina being good? Didn’t you disturb Uncle Thomas’s livestream?” I asked gently. 

“Not at all,” Thomas replied 

replied on Karina’s behalf, his voice clear and gentle. 

It inexplicably reminded people of the clear spring in a mountain stream. 

His fair and clean face showed a hint of concern for me. When he looked at me, his eyes curled in a way that was just right, not offensive. 

“Mummy, Karina is being really good,” Karina chimed in. 

In fact, after hanging out with John and Fredrica for some time, Karina’s temperament had changed quite bit, becoming mischievous and Evely. 

But she wanted Thomas to be her dad. 

Karina thought that if she behaved well, Thomas would like her more. 

Uncle Thomas is handsome and gentle. He can also do difficult dances on the ice. Katina praised Thomas endlessly, glancing at me with her big eyes.. 

It was clear that she was trying to promote Thomas to me. 

I understood her little scheme but pretended not to notice, gently booping her nose and saying “Mummy has something to tell you.” 

Karina reluctantly waved to Thomas, “Goodbye, Uncle Thomas.” 

Fredrica felt a bit jealous and said, “Even at such a young age, she knows to be infatuated with handsome guys and forget her friends.” 

Karina pouted and ran over to give Fredrica’s nose a peck. “I haven’t forgotten my godmother. See, I only kiss you like this; I’ve never kissed Unete 

Thoma 

Indeed, she reserved the kisses for her mommy 

Fredrica chuckled, feeling satisfied. She playfully returned the kisses on Karina’s little face and then nudged her gently. “Go inside with momany now.” 

I took Karina into Fredrica’s dedicated office. 

I closed the door 

Sectling Karina on a chair, I gently pressed her small shoulders and spoke up. “Mammy has talked things through with the Thorne family today. From now on, they won’t take you away anymore.” 

“Really?” A visible relief washed over Karina’s little face. 

The memories left by the Thorne family during their last encounter w 

were too unpleasant, making her even more resentful of them 

“Mommy, were they not bullying you?” she immediately expressed her concern. 

thing her soft lithe hands, she gently examined my face, inspecting it from top to bortom 

In my tormary, when Thiana was unhappy, she would slap me 

Tholy when she show no marks on my fare did Karma feel i 

I silently watched my daughter every mor, feeling a soft warmth in my heart. 

During my time woth the Thorne family, only Karina cared about ins 

Every time I was slapped by Diana or treated harshly by Pamela, Katins would come to comfort the 

Holding her tider bttle handl. I smiled gently and said, “Don’t worry, Mominy won’t let them bully us anymore.” 

“Also, Mominy wants to apologize to you.” At this point, I lowered my head with embarrassment and explained to Karina how I had convinced the The family to give up on s 

“I’m sorry, Karina Mommy set a b 

a had example, su please don’t follow me in this matter.“ 

Tven if I didn’t say it, Karina would eventually find out from the Thorne Domily. 

Besides, we had a close relationship as a family. 

1 wanted to maintain a democratic and open relationship with Karina rather than a traditional elder and junior relationship. 

“Mommy said I’m the daughter of the boss of Starlight Media, and you happen to be the boss of Starlight Media, it’s the truth,” Karina cleverly replied “So, mommy didn’t lie, you just changed the way of speaking” 

Her words surprised me, and I couldn’t help but pause. 

When did this little girl become so clever? She even knew about the “way of speaking“? 

Seeing my puzzled expression. Karina proudly blinked her big eyes and said, “Uncle Fredrica and Uncle Thomas have taught me a lot about hosting Live broadcasts and told me that the way of speaking is very important in attracting others‘ attention. I’ve been learning diligently” 

Karina had a look of pride, as if she were saying “Tm very capable, and I’m proud of it. 

I couldn’t help but burst into laughter. 

I remained silent and continued to stroke the soft hair of the little girl. 

Karina’s progress was clearly visible. – 

Cutting ties with the Thorne family was indeed a wise decision 

As I was thinking, my phone rang. 

Hooked down and saw a familiar number. 

This number was so famihar to me. 

In the past, I had wanted to dial this number countless times, but I never dared to touch a 

Afraid that the other person would be dissatisfied. 

But now I suddenly feel nothing? 

I realized that once a person decided to change, they could become as calm as still water, cold, and ruthless 

For example, now I have no desire to hear that voice again. 

Without hesitation, I hung up the phone without even considering it. 

Third person perspective 

On the other end, Hale’s face darkened like the bottom of a pot as he watched the call be disconnected. 

After committing such a despicable act, this woman couldn’t even be bothered to acknowledge

He had come out of home, and a fier w

ell that Dhel dropped this morning 

Even after several hours had passed, the fire in his heart continued to grow, not diminishing in the slightest but expanding! 

Temur years ago, she shamelessly climbed up to him, a child of the boss of Starlight Media? 

announcing that they were engaged, not because she loved him but to give a decent marus to the 

This burs ham far more than her previous claim that she did it out of love for him. 

A hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times more hurtful! 

He dialed the number again, but this time it showed that the call couldn’t be connected 

thel had blocked him! 

He squeezed his phone so hard that his fingertips turned pale, and his knuckles almost dislocated from the pressure. 

The door opened at that moment, and William walked in 

Seeing him, William hurriedly spoke, “The Thousand Faced Fox has been contacted, but she’s unwilling to help us. What should we do next? 

Hale seemed to not hear his voice, nor did he even look at him. He walked straight past him without a glance 

Left alone, William felt a chilling coldness that made him shiver involuntarily 

This person… 

What’s p 

going on?” He looked at Robert and Cathy, who were still present. 

Normally, no matter how had Hale’s mood was, spoke 

he would never be careless about work matters. But just now, he didn’t react at all when William 

“What else can at be? Being manipulated for four years is had enough, and now he finds out he’s not even the father of the child. How could be be in a good mood?” Robert replied with a touch of sarraun. 

Of course, he was not mocking Hale, but Ethel 

He briefly recounted what had happened. 

ps saying i 

that Ethel is a good person. Is this your criteria for choosing people? Robert expressed his dissatisfaction with William’s bias 

towards Ethel 

However, he was not in a bad mood. 

The more Ethel crossed the line, the less likely Hale would be involved with her. 

On the other sade, Cathy was also very pleased. 

She never expected so many unexpected joys. 

Now, even the child wasn’t Hale’s What else did she have to worry about? 

As long as the truth was not exposed. Hale would cherish and love her forever. 

Thinking of this, Cathy stood up gracefully 

She walked to a secluded spot before taking out her phone that she had been holding and making a call “You once said that Hale is unconditionally doting on me because of a certain matter. And because of this matter, he will never abandon me and will always comply with my requests.” 

“What is the matter?” 

“That matter is actually related to a person,” the person on the other end of the call slowly said

Kobert played a voice message for un

The voice in the message sounded anxious: “Robert, do you know where Hale went? I’ve been looking for him for a while and cooldet find him, Ema be worried. Can you help me fund him?” 

The voice was clear and melodious, and I couldn’t be more familiar with it 

I was Cathy 

No wonder 

Robert had always looked down on me. When I was at the Thorne family’s house, every time I appeared, he would avoid me from afar with 

He was the type of person who never wanted to inconvenience himself. 

It turned out that he came to my door to help Cathy find Hale? 

I let out a light sport. 

It seemed like Cathy was really fortunate. 

On the one hand, she had Hale who was devoted to her and willing to overlook even her betrayal.. 

On the other hand, she had Robert, who was willing to run around for her. 

I was about to tell Robert that tale was not at my place when the second voice message from Cathy sounded. 

“Robert, there’s no need to look for him anymore. I already know where Hale is. He’s at the Prime Hotel, and John is also there 

As the message ended, Fredrica’s phone rang. 

She picked it up. 

Upon hearing the content of the call, her face immediately changed. “Damn Hale!” 

We hurried to the Prime Hotel. 

The door of room 1032 was slightly ajar… 

Inside the room, John sat on the bed. 

He was 

was wearing an unbuttoned shirt, exposing the skin on his chest. 

His hands were resting on has sudes, and his usually smiling face was now filled with anger 

Sitting across from him was a man who seemed like a deity. 

His long legs were casually stretched out, and he had one hand resting on the armrest of the chair, holding a lighter and flicking it on and off 

Making a crisp. cold sound 

The man’s face showed no expression at all, and he remained silent throughout
