Everyone in the room was stunned by his words. After all, Carter had kept his distance from the Boltons ever since the incident with his mother, spending most of his time abroad.

It was no secret that he resented Jeffrey and despised the Boltons, so he rarely set foot in the Bolton Residence if he could help it.

Being an illegitimate child, Carter was never really welcome in the Boltons. They didn't care much for him and were worried he'd come back and start fighting for the inheritance. So, it was a shock when he suddenly returned and said he wanted to take over the family.

Adam looked pissed, his face turning dark as he snapped, "Take over? Who do you think you are? You're not in charge in our family!"

"It's not up to you to decide. From now on, I'm staying at the Bolton Residence," Carter said, turning to Jeffrey. "What do you say, Dad?"

I used to think Jeffrey saw him as a stain on the family, and never cared much for this illegitimate son. But the moment Carter called him "Dad," I noticed Jeffrey's eyes welling up with tears. Did that look like a father who didn't love his son?

"Get a room ready for Carter," Jeffrey said, waving his hand. The butler rushed to carry it out, worried Carter might change his mind.

Adam didn't look happy and immediately tried to protest, "Dad, this isn't right-"

"Shut up," Jeffrey cut him off. "He's your brother. What's so wrong about it? He's done well for himself overseas without any of my help. And look at the mess your own screw-up of a son has made."

It was fine when he didn't mention Luke, but as soon as he mentioned it, he blew up. "And I just saw all those terrible rumors online, calling Chloe a scam artist and a fake. Are you going to let people insult your wife like that?"

"Grandpa, Chloe has been acting out of line. She left for Cloudville without a word, and I want to teach her a lesson."

"How can you still say she's being unreasonable? If it weren't for you running off and avoiding the wedding, would she have gone to Cloudville? Seems like you've forgotten how she begged Andrew to help us when we were in financial trouble. Without her, we might not have survived the crisis."

The old man lashed out at him again, fuming. "You ungrateful bast*rd, maybe I should just beat you to death."

"Dad, if you beat him up too badly, how's he supposed to go to Cloudville and bring her back?" Adam pleaded.

"Besides, Chloe cares about him the most. If she saw him hurt, she'd be sad."

Then, Jeffrey finally stopped, his anger still fuming. "You useless b*stard, get your wife back here!"

With that final order, he took Carter and left, barely glancing at Luke.

"You're doing well abroad. If you're interested in coming back, that's also great."

Carter just replied calmly, "Mm."

Luke had applied the medication and was lying on the bed, while I paced anxiously beside him.

It felt like those people were determined to skin me, leaving me with no intact body.

s

I couldn't shake the feeling that this was why I couldn't just disappear. I wished someone would hurry up and find my body so I could finally rest in peace.

But Luke, when would you realize that I'm already gone?

Meanwhile, Adam kept reprimanding Luke. "Chloe is a great girl. She's been devoted to you all these years. It was one thing back then, but now that you're married, no matter how you feel about Anna, stay away from her and focus on your life with Chloe ..." Luke suddenly looked up at him, "Dad, why do you think there's something going on between me and Anna? She's just my sister!"

Adam looked at him with an expression that said he'd already seen through it all. "Tell me, have you thought about Chloe these past couple of years? Every time Anna calls, you drop everything and run, even ignoring your own wedding."

"That's because Anna's health is unstable, and she's always in danger."

"You know her condition. Even if she really had a serious episode, it'd be over in no time, and you wouldn't get there in time anyway. Plus, she's claimed she's in danger so many times-when has it ever been serious? This trick always works because you care about her. Otherwise, you wouldn't keep abandoning Chloe."

It was such an obvious point that anyone could see, and Luke looked totally embarrassed.

"So, you all think I care about Anna more than Chloe?"

"Isn't that the case?"

Adam didn't want to dwell on it further. "You and Chloe have been together for so long. I get that things can get boring and you might be seeking excitement. Just make sure you're careful, take your marriage seriously, and having a child with her would help make up for

it."

Adam patted his shoulder. "Get her back from Cloudville as soon as you can. A happy family makes everything run smoothly. Besides, you saw Carter has come back and is now trying to get the inheritance. You know how much your grandpa favors Chloe. If you're making him angry now, are you trying to hand the Boltons over to someone else? Think about it." 1

Luke took his father's words to heart and quickly dialed Roy's number.

"Book me a flight to Cloudville for tomorrow morning."

"Okay, Mr. Bolton."

"And take down all the trending topics about Chloe."

Roy hesitated and asked, "If we're removing the trending topics about Mrs. Bolton, should we also take down those about Ms. Anna?"

Even Roy thought so. Luke, already on edge, snapped, "Do you think Anna's reputation is more important than my wife's?"

"No, I just "Roy was taken aback. After all, Luke had always sided with Anna in the past when it came to matters involving both of them.

"If there's a next time, you can pack up and leave," Luke snapped before ending the call.

He was a little absent-minded, as if he was reflecting if he was really that bad to me.

He tried calling me again, but my phone was still off.

For a moment, he looked guilty, then muttered, "With that kind of temper, you're not even as good as Anna."

If I had heard this before, I might have felt hurt, but after everything that's happened, I've grown numb.

I just hoped he'd get to Cloudville soon and discover the truth about my passing.

The phone rang again. It was Roy calling. Having learned from the earlier reprimand, Roy spoke cautiously. "Mr. Bolton, I've arranged everything for the trip to Cloudville. But the trending topics have already been removed." "Removed? Who did that?"

"I checked it. It was someone from the Bolton family. They managed to wipe everything clean in no time, leaving no trace. It's said they spent 7.5 million on PR. Besides Old Mr. Bolton, who else could have such resources?" Luke's heart sank. Besides his grandpa, there was one other person who could have done this.

Could it be him?
