“This is fantastic! 4EVER Capital is a godsend!”
Joshua was equally excited. “Uncle Lin, with 4EVER <b>Capital’s </b>backing, LIG is saved!”
“Exactly! Once the news spreads, our stock prices will rebound tool”
Feeling reinvigorated, Jonathan issued an order. “Get Scott to thepany. He’ll be in charge of the 4EVER Capital projectunch ceremony!”
Joshua hesitated before replying, “I don’t know what’s going on, but I haven’t been able <b>to </b>reach Scotttely. His <b>phone </b>is <b>off</b>, and when I sent someone to his house, he was nowhere to be found.”
Jonathan’s expression darkened. “What the hell is he up to? When actually need him, he vanishes
Joshua smirked.““If <b>you </b>ask me, Scott was never reliable. He’s probably avoiding us because of Jasmine. Now that she’s scarred, he wants nothing to do with her.”
Jonathan furned. “That bastard! As if I’d let a scumbag like him marry my daughter anyway!”
The Gilbert Family had gone bankrupt, and Jonathan had let that slide. But now Scott was rejecting his daughter<b>? </b>Unforgivable.
Just then, one of Joshua’s subordinates entered with a report and handed it to him.
Joshua skimmed through it before passing it to Jonathan “We just found out–Scott booked a flight <b>to </b>Las Vegas.”

Brimming with enthusiasm, Joshua immediately set to work, preparing for the project’s officialunch

As he stepped into The Lewis Family’s car, a ck vehicle parked at a distance remained motionless.
Inside, James sal behind the wheel, his eyes fixed on the LIG entrance.
His gaze followed Jonathan, watching him board the car.
He had already looked into Jonathan’s background.
Shortly after <b>his </b>mother, Kelly, passed away–Jonathan married Megin,
This man <b>had </b>no right to be alive.
Seeing Jonathan again triggered something deep within James’s mind.
Fragments of forgotten memories began to surface.
And then it hit him.
Jonathan was not his biological father.
Jonathan had drugged him, knocked him out, and sold him to human traffickers.
His fists clenched around the steering wheel, his nads digging into his palms.
His blood boiled with fury.
The Lewis <b>Family </b><b>car </b>pulled <b>away </b>from LIG’s entrance.

Hetailed the vehicle all the way to The Lewis Family estate.
Sitting <b>outside </b>the gated <b>mansion</b>, James stared <b>at </b>the family crest for a long time.
Memories long buried began to rise clearer than ever

Megan informed him of her n–she had arranged for Jasmine to <b>undergo </b>surgery in H Country tomorrow.
“<b>She’s </b>going to get the best treatment, but it’ll cost a fortune. We need more money <b>just </b>in case

Jonathan, in a generous mood ather securing the 4EVER Capital investment, handed her a card.
“Take it. Just make sure Jasmine looks perfect <b>again</b>. I don’t care how much it costs.”
Megan smiled. “She’ll be just fine.”
With money secured, Megan started making final preparations for their trip

As Caitlin chatted with Eliza and Beatrice, Eliza suddenly asked, “Sebastian told me you found your brother Harrison, is that true?”
Catlin sighed. “Yes, but he was in an ident. He’s in the hospital now, still unconscious. We haven’t reunited yet.”
Beatrice turned to Eliza, “Eliza, why don’t you go to the hospital with Caitlin?”
“I was thinking the same thing,” replied
Caitlin shook her head. “No need, Eli. Once he wakes up, let you all know. There’s no point in going now.”
“Alright, but don’t take everything on alone. You can always discuss things with Sebastian.”
Eliza’s concern was genuine–she truly cared for Caitlin.
“I know”
As they continued spending time with the children, a sudden phone call disrupted the peaceful moment…
John, the butler, rushed over his face tense.
“Madam, bad news! We just got a call–Molly’s been injured!”
