Only the last possibility remained.
John glanced at me and immediately understood what I meant. His gaze narrowed as he whispered,
“Nathaniel Hall?”
I nodded sternly.
Yes, Nathaniel Hall. The man who I couldn’t fathom on first sight as he made my skin creep.
The Hall family never taught their younger generation about love. If Ashton hadn’t found them back then,
Nathaniel would be the only successor. Now, Ashton had reunited with the Hall family and even became
the leader, taking over Nathaniel’s position.
Under the circumstances, he should be clouded by jealousy.
However, Nathaniel did nothing and disappeared into thin air. He hid in the darkness and waited to reap
the benefits from their fight.

It seemed like Nathaniel had concealed himself well. He hadn’t given himself away. I didn’t really lose my
memories, so I managed to relate everything to him.
I shook my head solemnly as I had no idea. “Compared to the other Halls, he’s too low profile.”
Suddenly, my eyes lit up as something occurred to me. “Actually, there’s a way. If we want to know why
he doesn’t want fame and fortune, the best way is to force him to accept everything.”
As the saying goes, “One should not impose on others what he himself does not desire.” Still, since it
was Nathaniel who broke the rule first, we could give him a taste of his own medicine.
John fell silent for a moment before flashing a mysterious smile. “If I’m not mistaken, you’re not only
targeting Nathaniel, right?”
He glanced at the second floor as if something interesting was about to transpire.
I lowered my gaze and grinned.
Right then, Joseph arrived at our house. He greeted us and was about to go upstairs to look for Ashton
when I stopped him. “Mr. Campbell, has something urgent happened?”
Joseph stopped at the stairs and replied politely, “It’s about work. Mr. Fuller hadn’t been to work for a few
days, so there are a few important documents which he has to sign today.”
He showed us his briefcase while saying that.
I nodded and stood up. “Right. I have something to discuss with Ashton, too. Let’s head up together,” I
told him.
Joseph seemed puzzled, but he said nothing and followed behind me.
Soon, John caught up as well.
After turning a corner, we could see what was happening in the study.
Gregory was sitting in front of the desk, his attention focused on the laptop. Ashton had Audrey in his lap,
and they were both staring at Gregory’s laptop screen. None of them were moving, but it was strangely, a

Kids couldn’t sit still for long. Shortly after, Audrey spotted me standing by the door alongside Joseph.
“Mommy!”
She hopped out of Ashton’s lap and came to me. Flinging an arm around my leg, she complained,
“Mommy, Greg won’t talk to me!”
I ruffled her hair to comfort her. “Good girl. Your brother loves you, so you should be good and not disturb
him when he’s busy, get it?”
Audrey pouted unhappily, but she still nodded. “Alright. Is he gonna take a long time?”
I didn’t reply to her and held her hand as we walked into the study. Ashton’s brows furrowed together
before he quickly returned to his aloof self.
He seems mad at me for taking Audrey’s attention away, but he’s too proud to admit it.
Suddenly, Gregory rose to his feet and shut down the laptop. He returned the laptop to Ashton and
uttered, “Thank you, Daddy. I’m done.”
