Vermont thought to himself, ‘If I remember correctly, thergest shareholder of Deron Holdings is
named Florence.’
As Vermont realized that all the information aligned, he found himself at a loss. It finally became clear
to him why Florence had that expression when he presented her with the gift brought from Rivera the
previous night.
It was an exclusive limited-edition box of egg tarts from Deron. He believed he had chosen a pretty
decent gift, only to discover that he had inadvertently bought something produced by Florence’s own
company as a gift for her. Looking back, Vermont realized that Florence had looked at him as if he were
a fool.
“Vermont, have you ever had your fortune told with Felicity?” the chubbydy asked.
Vermont snapped back, “What do you mean by having my fortune told?”
“Oh, my goodness! Felicity didn’t tell you anything?” she eximed.
Vermont was puzzled, “Tell me what?”
“Felicity’s mom believes in fortune telling. Whether or not she epts you as her future son-inw
depends on thepatibility of your birth date with Felicity’s. If they are notpatible, she probably
won’t approve of you,’ she exined.
Vermont couldn’t believe his ears. He had put in so much effort, only to find out that Florence’s final
decision hinged on his birth date.
Meanwhile, the production of Motives for Murder was abruptly halted as Be Young was embroiled in
a scandal.
The crew received a heads-up that there would be a dy of one to two weeks in thepletion
schedule. This was due to the need to recast the female lead and reshoot all of Be’s scenes.
Thankfully, the shooting had not yet beenpleted. If the scandal hade to light after the shooting
had wrapped up, the reshoots would have faced scheduling conflicts and caused significant dys. It
would have been a great pity considering the exceptional script and the immense amount of hard work
that had been put into the production. Failing to release it would have been a shame.
While the oue of Be’s situation was still pending, the production team was already in a rush to
find a new actress. Everyone was curious about who would dare to take on the role.
It was a long holiday weekend, and Keegan decided to visit Cordelia. together became less frequent,
so he wanted to spend quality time with her.
Keegan had invited Ste to join him, but she declined his invitation due to her reluctance to see
certain members of his family at the moment.
Meanwhile, Felicity and Vermont were enjoying the long holiday weekend with their own families.
Hence, Ste was all by herself in the spacious house. Feeling bored, she grabbed a chair and ced
it at the edge of the pond in the yard. She sat down, intending to spend some time feeding the fish.
However, just as she started, her phone began to ring-it was Trevor.
She hesitated for a moment before answering the call.
“Ste, you’re the only one who hasn’t received the gift given out by ourpany. Are you at home? I
can swing by and drop it off for youter,” Trevor said.
Ste pressed her lips together. Ever since she found out who she really was, she couldn’t find any
peace. If she were still a kid, it might have been easier to reconnect with the Saun family and rebuild
those family ties. But being in her twenties, suddenly having so many family members overwhelmed
her, and she felt a mix of nervousness and fear.
Ste didn’t know the rest of the Saun family. Dealing with family members she had never met before
was unfamiliar territory, and she worried that her presence might disrupt their lives.

But when Trevor called and expressed his care and concern for Ste, her tense state of mind
suddenly eased up.
While she was hesitant about embracing her newfound family, they were gradually making efforts to
reach out and be a part of her life. They were even more concerned than she was, cautiously
showing their care and hoping she would ept them.
Ste’s heart softened, and she smiled before asking gently, ‘Aren’t you spending the holiday with your
family, Brother?”
