?Chapter 785:


    Just moments after ending the call, Denver received the message notification on his phone.


    He quickly opened it, and staring back at him was undeniable proof—Astrid embracing Soren, kissing him passionately!


    Denverughed bitterly, finally grasping the situation.


    “Unbelievable…” he muttered sarcastically.


    Though it was barely afternoon, his motivation for work vanishedpletely. Giving brief instructions to his assistant, he left the office without hesitation, heading straight home.


    Later that evening, the Moran family was busy preparing for the Jenkins family’s visit.


    At this point, every corner of their home buzzed with activity and excitement.


    Wilma, especially anxious about hosting the Jenkins for the first time, oversaw every detail meticulously.


    Roderick, who had just returned home from his office to retrieve some documents, paused halfway down the stairs as his wife’s anxious voice filled the room below.


    “Are the ingredients ready yet? And why isn’t the beige carpet ced down? Didn’t I specifically mention it? Somebody do something immediately!”


    Hearing footsteps behind her, Wilma quickly turned to see Roderick approaching.


    With a gentle, calming smile, Roderick said, “Rx, dear. It’s only dinner.”


    “Easy for you to say!”


    Though Wilmaughed lightly, fatigue lined her face, but beneath it shone genuine excitement.

    “After introducing Denver to countless girls, he finally found someone he likes…”


    “True enough,” Roderick replied warmly.


    He wisely refrained from pointing out that Denver probably took interest in Astrid because she bore some resemnce to Hadley.


    “That is looking good.” Wilma’s eyes sparkled with satisfaction. “Hopefully, they’ll continue getting along and marry within a couple of years.”


    “I agree.” Roderick nodded once more.


    “You!”


    Frustrated, Wilma red yfully at her husband. “All you ever do is agree! Can’t you offer something more useful? If we’d depended solely on you, Denver wouldn’t have…


    “Have you found such a suitable girlfriend? Thankfully, I intervened before Hadley could ruin his future—”


    “I– Mom.”


    That single word immediately drew both Wilma’s and Roderick’s attention toward the voice.


    “Denver! When did you get home?”


    Wilma’s heartbeat quickened. In her distraction, she hadn’t noticed Denver standing nearby.


    Exactly how much had he overheard?


    His typically calm expression darkened dangerously, anger burning behind his eyes. “Mom, what exactly did you do back then?”
