Luke was clearly on the verge of a breakdown. He seemed lost in thought while holding his bowl of soup. 

I wondered if he was thinking about me or his future. 

Grandma, overhearing their conversation, was so furious she nearly choked. If her body could still move, I was sure she ‘id have gotten up to slap my dad. 

My dad’s words were simply cruel. 

His daughter was missing and yet he refuses to call the police for the sake of his ego

Anna walked in at that moment. I think Dad’s right. You’ve already searched for Chedor, and even the people from both sides of the law couldn’t find Chloe. I guess she is hiding somewhere in this city. If you make a scene by mying the police, not only will both family businesses take a hit in reputation, but the stock prices will also sutter 

No. I have a terrible feeling. I’ve started having nightmares again. I dreamed that Chloe was dead. She was lying by the river in her wedding dress with a pool of blood beneath her while begging me to save her,” Luke said 

Anna smiled and served Luke more chicken soup. “You’re just overthinking, Luke. That’s why you’re dreaming about her. Chloe’s fine. If something had happened to her, the police would have come by already. You’ve lost weight recently–you should focus on taking care of yourself.” 

Luke’s brows furrowed, and he let Anna feed him the entire bowl of soup without resistance. 

My dad patted Luke’s shoulder. “No news is the best news. Get some rest, will you? Just look at yourself you’re a wreck If Carter wins this time and forms an alliance with the Gardners or the Hudsons through marriage, the Boltons will truly fall into his hands.” 

A flicker of coldness passed through Luke’s downcast eyes. I understand. I’ll wait a little longer.” 

With that, he stood and walked over to Grandma. Grandma, take care. I’ll come see you again in a few days: 

Grandma used to be fond of him, but after learning about his involvement with Anna, her gaze held only contempt and disgust. 

Luke assumed her hostility was due to her worry over my disappearance and thought nothing more of it “Grandma. I promise I’ll bring Chlor back. Don’t worry 

If Grandma’s face could still move freely, I was sure she would have sneered. 

It was funny that he had started looking for me when my ashes had already been scattered 

Just then, a familiar figure in a wheelchair appeared at the door. 

He seemed to have lost a little weight since the last time we met at the Boltons. 

The only thing that hadn’t changed was the imposing aura around him.

His pale skin and sharply defined features would send chills down one’s spine. 

When Carter appeared in the room, the temperature dropped sharply. 

Although Luke was restant, he still greeted him. “Unele Carter” 

Even Anna, who usually carried herself with such arrogance in front of others, couldn’t hide the instinctive fear on her face. She looked obedient as she greeted, “Hello” 

Carter didn’t even glance at her as he maneuvered his wheelchair toward the bed. 

My family looked especially awkward in his presence. After all, it hadn’t been long since my dad 

encouraged Luke to compete with him for the inheritance. As the saying goes, speak of the devil, and he shall appear 

“Mt. Bolton” my dad greeted him. 

Carter’s gaze drifted casually toward my dad. Despite being much younger and seated, his presence was so commanding that it made one instinctively want to bow down in submission. 

“Mr. Sander, I heard Mrs. Penelope was hospitalized. I came to check on her.” 

With a nod, he signaled to his bodyguard, who placed a basket of supplements and fruits on a side table. “Appreciate your concern. Mr. Bolton.” 

Carter wasn’t one for small talk. His focus shifted to Grandma as his demeanor softened slightly. 

“Mr. Penelope, don’t worry. You’ll recover soon.” 

Grandma blinked in response, a gesture that seemed to acknowledge his words. 

Carter’s tone turned sharp as he glanced over his shoulder at the others. Last time I saw Mrs. Penelope, she seemed in decent health. How did things suddenly take such a turn?” 

My dad immediately bent over slightly, adopting a submissive posture. “My mother is old, and her legs are weak. She fell and hit her head, which caused a brain hemorrhage- 

“She fell on her own? Funny, I heard someone else was with her when it happened” 

Carter’s icy stare landed on Anna, who visibly trembled. “Carter, it’s my fault. I didn’t catch her in time and she fell 

“And why did she fall?” Carter pushed his wheelchair closer to Anna. “An elderly person with limited mobility would be extra careful. What could have made her fall?” 

“Grandma has never liked me. She blames me for Chloe’s disappearance. She tried to hit me with her cabe, but she used too much force and lost her balance 

Anna’s expression shifted to one of pitiful sorrow, her go–to strategy for manipulating the family. I thought Carter night fall for her act, as the others often did. 

To my surprise, his expression darkened, and a chilling smile curved his lips. “Mrs. Penelope was once a formidable figure in the business world. Even now, she wouldn’t act impulsively. If she tried to hit you, it
