“Wait a sec.” | interjected with a light voice, smiling, “My dad? Who's my dad?”
That day, the ones who fervently deniedwere them, too.
But Susan could twist and turn with the situation. She chuckled awkwardly,
“Oh, darling, are you still holding a grudge? We're all family here. We couldn’t wrap our heads around it that day.
That's all.”
“Exactly, Jane, let bygones be bygones,” Dorothy interrupted.
“That attitude of yours.” Susan told her off, but not with anger, “Jane is your sister. Show the respect.””
Dorothy glanced at me, reluctant at first, but then, as if a thought struck her, she smiled, “Yeah, Jane, you're my
sister now."
| almost got goosebumps, casually observing the scene and wondering what they were cooking up this time.
Susan nudged Richard. “You too. Seeing your daughter and not even a hello?”
Richard cleared his throat, glanced at me, and motioned toward the door. “Aren’t you here to see Grandma? Go
on in.”
“Okay.” | pushed the door open, seeing Ramona still unconscious on the bed, feeling a bit powerless.
When Ramona would wake up was still uncertain. The tin the living room was probably hatching splan by
then.
After a while, when | went out, | saw Susan still wearing a forced smile. “Jane, your dad, Jane, and | are glad

troubles at home...”
There she was, hitting the main topic.
| stayed silent, looking into her eyes, waiting for her to cut to the chase. “The company’s facing a huge financial
gap for our most critical project. We're at a deadlock with RF, and nobody dares to invest now. We have no
choice but to ask RF for help. Being part of the Myers family now, maybe you could lend a hand?”

| smiled. “Oh? And how would you liketo lend a hand?”
“Stop fighting with Mr. Ferguson.” Susan shamelessly continued, “There's an old saying. For better or worse. Mr.
Ferguson has been nothing but good to you. How about settling down and becoming Mrs. Ferguson for real? From
then on, the Myers family will be your stronghold, and no one will dare to mess with you.”
“Sure.” | nodded in agreement, and as they sighed in relief, | slowly pointed toward Dorothy. “First, she needs to
leave.”
Dorothy glared at me. “Jane! What gives you the right to...”
“And what makes you think | have to throw away my entire life for the Myers family, only to have you share in
the spoils?” | chuckled coldly, seeing right through their motives. “Letguess. I'm just dressing you up for the
ball, right?”
“Jane...” Susan was getting anxious. “Dorothy has been with the Myers family since she was little. Though
adopted, she’s no less than our own.”
“Oh, is that so.” | smiled faintly, “Then Dorothy can go to Bryant, can’t she? After all, being a ‘former’ fiancée,
Bryant might still care and do her a little favor.”
With those words, | turned and exited the room. But just as | opened the door to leave, | saw Gregory striding
toward me.
Seeing me, he stopped in his tracks, a smile playing on his lips. “Aren't you coming?”
I smiled back. “How did you know | was at the hospital?”
He gavea casual look. “I have my ways.”
I nodded. “Oh.”
“Missed me...”
“I've got something...”
We both started to speak at the stime.
He raised an eyebrow. “You first?”
