she replied, “Daddy, I want a Ferrari sports car like this! In pink, yeah!”

Justin took a look and immediately said, “Okay, we’ll buy it!”

Sure enough, the little fellow immediately broke into a grin and said, “Daddy, you’re so awesome, yeah!”

“…”

Upon hearing his daughter’s praises, Justin was as pleased as punch.

The corners of his lips curled upward.
He sent the model of the sports car to Lawrence and instructed him to buy one, no matter the cost.
Then, he scooped his daughter up with one arm and said, “Let’s go to the family home and visit your Grandma and Great-Grandma today!”

Her Grandma and Great-Grandma?

Cherry became excited at once.
“Okie-Dokie!”

At the Andersons.

After dinner, Nora stood up and got ready to go upstairs to work.

That’s right, work.

Prior to an operation, in order to prevent accidents from happening, she had to make a list of every possible situation she might encounter during the operation.
This was her professionalism.

However, a pair of uninvited guests arrived at the door at this moment —it was Miranda and Rachel Wood.

As soon as she walked in, Rachel, who resembled Melissa somewhat, frowned and looked at her.
Her jaw tensed up, and a look of displeasure filled her face.

A hesitant Melissa asked, “What’s the matter?”

Miranda’s eyes were all red.
She was in tears as she said, “I was blind to pick on you all the time in the past, Melissa.
I was wrong, okay? Forgive me!”

Ever since the real estate investment failed, the Sonnets hadn’t been able to get their money back.
With housing prices controlled now, people were all adopting a wait-and-see approach, and no one dared to buy any property.

They suddenly ran into trouble with recouping their capital.

The Lowes could barely even keep themselves afloat at the moment, so why would they possibly care about the small shareholders who had invested a bit and were waiting to make money?

The Sonnets became resentful toward Miranda as a result and drove her out.

She then went home in embarrassment, but the Woods refused to let her in and even told her that she had to apologize to Melissa first.

Miranda had no choice but to come over.

Melissa cast her eyes down.

When she thought of how Miranda had humiliated her over the years, she said, “To be honest, does it really matter whether I forgive you or not, Miranda? Let’s just lessen contact with each other in the future.”

There were some things that couldn’t be made up for with just an apology.

Miranda’s apology was too insincere.

Melissa didn’t want to forgive her.

Miranda, who understood what she meant, tugged on Rachel’s sleeve.
Rachel immediately frowned and said, “Why don’t you forgive my mother, Aunt Melissa? Otherwise, we’ll lose our mother if Dad doesn’t let her go home! If you’re still not agreeable to it, then shall I get down on my knees in front of you?”

She started to get down on her knees as she spoke.

Melissa hastily grabbed her and said, “What are you doing, Rachel?”

Rachel said, “Why don’t you call Dad and tell him that you aren’t angry anymore? Otherwise, he’ll never let Mom in.”

So, that was what they were up to.

Melissa looked at the mother and daughter putting on a show in front of her.

One was pretending to be weak while the other was pretending to be pitiful.

They were just forcing her to do what they wanted!

She lowered her gaze and said, “Okay, I’ll call him.”

The way Farrell did things was just so unreliable.
Why ask them to beg her for forgiveness? He obviously couldn’t bear to part with his children, so he had to bring Miranda back home even if he didn’t want to.

Miranda brightened.
“Call him now.”

Melissa had no choice but to call Farrell.

Miranda watched her from the side with her fists tightly clenched.
She would remember how Melissa had humiliated her today!

The mother and daughter pair left after Melissa made the call.

However, as soon as they reached the door, they suddenly heard violent knocking at the door.

Knock! Knock!

In the middle of the night, the sound was rather ear-piercing in the high-end residential complex.
