As Elliot had a department dedicated to collecting any information rted to the corporate world, it was impossible for him not to


    know about this.


    “Tell me why you did it,’ he asked curiously.


    “If anyone is to me, it’s their fault for giving birth to a daughter who made me


    angry.” “Is their daughter the one who stole your family heirloom? Elliot asked, his


    eyebrows raised.


    Arthur nodded. “That''s right. She’s also missing, so | have no idea what she’s done to my family heirloom either.”


    “You made such a huge fuss just to force her to show up on her own, right?” Elliot knew Arthur well.


    “She''s lucky that didn’t do anythingN?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    else. Arthur picked up a ss from the table and took a sip. “When shees back, she''ll pay for it


    At his words, Elliot felt a hint of pity for the girl.


    Arthur propped up his chin and asked, “Elliot, what do you think | should give you as a wedding gift? Tell me, what else do you


    need?”


    “It''s fine. You can just give me a simple gift.” Elliot didn’t want him to break the bank for a present.


    “| want to give my godson a present too, but | don’t know what children like.”


    “He likes Lego, so you can just give him at few boxes.” Elliot added with a smile, “If you can’t, you can also hurry up and get


    married to give him a younger brother or sister to y with.”


    ‘Say,e and be my best man!” Ellion invited.


    “| can''t.” Arthur waved a hand.


    “Why not?”


    “Because | might steal all your glory!” Arthur teased.


    “That wouldn''t happen. Elliot was confident in himself as well.


    The two buddies looked at each other andughed. This kind of happiness between friends was simple and pure. and


    sometimes even naive.


    On the street of a certain country, a girl had just finished shopping with her friend when a page of a newspaper flew toward her


    feet all of a sudden. She kindly picked up the trash and was about to throw it into a nearby trash can, but just as she was about


    to do so, she saw a familiar face. It was an erged photo, and seeing the man in the picture immediately sent a pang to her


    heart. She eximed, “Dad!”


    Immediately after, she quickly unfolded the entire newspaper and saw the picture of her father on the headline with a text


    description next to it, and another picture of her father being taken into the car by the police.


    “How could this be? Why was my dad caught, and why did thepany go bankrupt?” The girl clutched the


    newspaper tightly, feeling shocked to the core.


    “Sophia, what''s wrong?” Her friend rushed over to support her, who was about to faint..


    “My dad! My dad was captured. | have to go back home.”


    Saying that, Sophia fished out her phone and called her mother. This was her first time contacting her family ever since she


    bailed on her marriage a month ago.


    “Hello?” Emma''s voice sounded exhausted.


    “Mom, it’s me. What happened to Dad? Why was he captured?”


    “Sophia? Is that really you, Sophia? Did you finally get a conscience? Hurry up ande back! Your dad is in trouble, and so is


    thepany.”


    “Okay, Mom, I''lle back now.” Sophia was so anxious that her eyes welled up with tears. She had been a bad daughter for


    leaving her family behind just to


    escape her marriage.


    “I''ll send you to the airport.”


    The two girls quickly packed up their clothes and belongings in the hotel. As she was too worried about her father, Sophia was so


    panicked that even when the ne around her neck suddenly. fell into the clothes in her suitcase, she didn’t notice at all.


    Instead, she stuffed a few more clothes inside before she closed the suitcase and left.


    Two hourster, she arrived at the airport and boarded a ne to return home. At the same time, a message arrived on a certain


    man’s phone with her flight information.


    “You''re finallying back, aren’t you?” Arthur sneered.


    On the ne, Sophia’s heart was about to burst. Even if the ne was the fastest. means of transportation, she still felt that it


    was slow. It must be my fault. It''s because | didn’t marry Christopher that Dad’spany is in trouble now. She regretted her


    stubborn decision to bail from her marriage, and thought that she should’ve married Christopher to help her father pull through.
