The gentle and mellow voice was mixed with some light panting as if the owner of the voice had run

all the way here.

Everyone looked at the gates and saw Caleb Gray walking in.

Dressed in a gray suit, he gave off a comfortable feeling that felt just like a spring breeze.

His chest rose up and down slightly as he panted.

His deep, melancholic eyes shifted to Nora after he spoke.

He nodded politely and gently at her and said, “I rushed over immediately when I saw the live-

stream.I almost messed things up for you.’

Nora: “???”

Wasn’t he her ex-fiance Anthony Gray’s uncle? He had approached her to fulfill the marriage

agreement between the Grays and her the other time.

What was he doing here? While she was wondering about it, Caleb turned to Henry.

The attitude he took with him was completely different from the one he adopted toward Nora.

He even sounded a little disgusted as he said, “Do you really think that no one knows the truth

about what happened back then, Mr.Smith?”

Henry, who had been punched, was holding his nose.

Blood seeped from in between his fingers.

When he heard what Caleb said, he frowned.

“What truth are you talking about?”

Caleb replied, “The truth about your marriage to Ms.Anderson!”

Henry’s eyes flickered.

“What I said just now is the truth itself.What nonsense are you spouting? Are you guys planning to

twist the truth? Also, who are you? How dare you come over to help that unfilial girl!” Caleb sighed.

“I’m from the Grays.” The Grays? An astounded Henry looked at him.

“What?”

Nora could clearly sense that there was something going on in here.

She thought of the marriage agreement, and how the Smiths were just a small family, whereas the

Grays were a large and famous wealthy family in California.

She thought of how the Grays had never demanded to break off the engagement even when she

became pregnant before marriage…

“What exactly happened back then, Mr.Gray?” asked Nora.

Caleb replied with a sigh, “I was only three years old back then, so I didn’t know the truth.It was my

father who told me everything, but everything he said is completely different from what Mr.Smith

said!”

Completely different…

Henry became terribly anxious.

“You”

He only managed to utter a word when Caleb looked at him, frightening him so badly that he

suppressed the rest of what he had wanted to say.

He was relatively unfamiliar with the wealthy families in New York, but the Grays were influential

locals of California! Besides, his daughter was currently engaged to the Grays! He stepped forward

and said, “We’re in-laws, Mr.Gray.

You Caleb lowered his gaze, causing his long eyelashes to cast silhouettes on his cheeks.

He looked at Nora and slowly said, “It is true that your mother was pregnant before she was

married, but this is something that everyone knew because her belly was already showing when

she got married”

Her belly was already showing…

Then that meant that the wedding scam didn’t exist at all! Nora narrowed her eyes.

“And then?’

“Your father was just a clerk at that time.For some reason, your mother took an interest in him, so

she had a frank and sincere talk with him” Henry was still disputing his claim.

He said, “That didn’t happen at all!”

However, Caleb took out a very old voice recorder pen and pressed the play button.

A conversation between the two started to play clearly from the recorder pen.

The voice that Nora found so familiar, yet also felt foreign at the same time, was speaking calmly

without any emotion.

She asked, “Do you have a girlfriend, Henry?”

Henry’s voice sounded a little younger than how it currently sounded.His voice shook in trepidation

as he answered…

“N-no, I don’t.”

Yvette asked, “Are you willing to marry me, then?”

“What?”

Yvette let out a low chuckle and said, “This is a transaction.I’m pregnant and my child needs a

father, whereas your mother is sick and you need money for her medical expenses.’

The sound of Henry swallowing hard was very obvious.

He said, “Then…Then your assets…”

Yvette said, “I’m sick and in very serious condition.I can probably only live for a year after I give

birth.After I die, the company will be left to my child.I’ve already found a dedicated manager for the

company.As for you, you are to act as my child’s guardian.The dividends you’ll receive before she

reaches adulthood will definitely be more than enough for you.I won’t hold you back from marrying

and having children, either.I want you to take good care of my child.In return, as thanks, I can

transfer the villa, where I’m currently living, to you.”

Henry seemed to be in disbelief.

He asked, “W-why did you pick me?”

However, Yvette merely chuckled and said nothing.

Henry spoke again.

He asked, “A-aren’t you afraid that I’ll mistreat your child?”

Yvette’s answer this time was very casual.

She said, “It’s fine as long as you make sure that she stays alive.As for the rest, you can do

whatever you want.’

“Oh, by the way, if she accidentally dies, then the villa will be taken back and the company’s

dividends cut off.Do you understand what I’m saying?”

“Yes, I understand.”

“Okay.If you’re agreeable to it, then just sign this contract here.I’ll give you three days to consider”

Henry’s voice was tinged with excitement as he interrupted her and said, “No, it’s fine! I agree!”
