Rather than enduring an unhappy marriage, he found greater contentment in leading a peaceful life with his daughter. That was all he could ask for.
Hence, during the same afternoon, Derek and Regina went together to process their divorce papers.
“After all these years, our marriage has come to an end. Take good care of yourself from now on.” At the entrance of the City Hall, Derek held a divorce certificate in his hand. He sighed one last time and walked
away.
Eunice couldn’t hold herself back and tear up.
As she wept bitterly, she complained loudly, “Why do you two have to divorce? Why?”
Regina felt sad seeing her daughter cry, but she maintained her composure and comforted, “Eunice, stop crying. Even if I’m not around anymore, you’re still here, aren’t you?”
“With you gone, I’ll be all alone in the Thornton residence. What am I supposed to do…” Eunice wept uncontrollably.
“Don’t say that, Eunice!” Regina shook her head, stubbornly persuading her daughter, “Promise me that as long as you’re still part of the Thornton family, you won’t let the company fall into Madelyn’s hand, okay? Once that b’ich takes over the company, our lives will truly become unbearable. Who knows what she’ll do to us then? That’s why you must be strong. Eunice!”
Her tone was serious. She was clearly placing all her hopes on Eunice,
Eunice also thought her mother’s words made sense and nodded earnestly. “Mom, I will definitely work hard and prevent Madelyn from snatching everything!”
As she said that, the last trace of sincerity in her eyes vanished completely, replaced by a ruthless gaze.
After taking a brief rest at the Thornton residence in the afternoon, Madelyn prepared to set off for Lockhart Group.
At that moment, her cellphone suddenly rang.
Upon glancing at her phone, Madelyn saw that the incoming call was from Septimus. She immediately swiped to answer il

Ever since Madelyn messed with Charlie, Pigeon didn’t give up easily. He secretly sent people to investigate for a long time and finally, through various means, traced things back to Madelyn.
However, Madelyn was puzzled. “It’s been a long while since the incident, and didn’t you settle it last time? Why is there still trouble now?”
Septimus sighed. “It’s a long story.

After Madelyn had a physical confrontation with Charlie, Septimus seized the opportu Pigeon’s illicit drug trade. Upon learning that, the underworld boss immediately revoke Pigeon’s. management rights.
Under the management of Septimus, there was no longer a place for Pigeon in the black market.
Pigeon had unceremoniously lost his power, a fact that he couldn’t stomach. Naturally, he wanted to investigate the whole affair, but it was clear he was no longer a match for Septimus.
Thus, Pigeon had no choice but to target Madelyn, who he saw as weak and powerless.
For that very reason, Septimus called Madelyn to give her a heads–up, advising her to be extra cautious recently,
After listening to the whole story, Madelyn was not surprised. She simply said, “Thank you, Mr. Septimus, for informing me about this matter.”
Septimus was nonchalant about it, “Ms, Thornton, there’s no need for such formality with me. After all, you only caught Pigeon’s attention because of me. So, if you ever need help, please don’t hesitate to let me know.”
“All right.” Madelyn promptly hung up.
Although Madelyn had heightened her guard, she didn’t dwell much on the matter because she believed what was destined to happen would eventually come to pass. Worrying wouldn’t change anything, so she decided to put it out of her mind for the time being.
Following that, Madelyn set off for Lockhart Group.
On the way there, she bought two sets of packed lunches so she could dine with Sebastian in his office.
After finishing her meal, Madelyn immediately returned to studying management–related stuff, not wasting a single moment.
Halfway through, Wesley knocked and entered the room. Upon seeing Madelyn also present, he furrowed his brows slightly.
Madelyn scoffed and ignored him.
Following that, Wesley updated Sebastian on the recent state of the overseas branches and asked, “Sebastian, the situation with our foreign companies is quite good now, and most issues have been resolved. When do you plan to arrange for Harriet’s return?”
Madelyn narrowed her eyes, glancing at Sebastian.

However, in the end, he simply sighed and lowered his head. “Forget it. I’ll be leaving first.
Without delay, he departed from the office.
Just then his phone rang. Wesley glanced at it and saw it was a call from Harriet. He immediately put the phone to his ear.
“Wesley, did you ask what I requested? What did Sebastian say?” Harriet asked anxiously.
Wesley genuinely didn’t want to upset Harriet, so he forced a smile. “Sebastian said it won’t be long now and that you just need to wait a little longer.”
Harriet suddenly released a heavy sigh. “Wesley, stop lying to me. Sebastian doesn’t intend for me to return. does he?”
Wesley inexplicably felt a pang of sorrow. “Harriet, why do you only see the good in Sebastian, even after all he’s done to you? Why don’t you ever look at the people beside you!” Why don’t you ever look at met My feelings for you are nothing short of genuine.
Harriet chuckled. “If I could choose not to think that way, I would, but… Wesley, do you know? From the moment he saved me when we were children, I’ve already given my life to him.”
