Samuel's tone was ominous. “If you can’t givea definite answer today, this matter won't end! Don’t think
your Horton Group can just bully people as you please!”
Tom said helplessly, “That was when they were kids. My boss didn’t tellthe details. | guessed it from what
Miss Davis usually says.”
Samuel kept cursing. “An incident from childhood is even more ridiculous, right? Can you confirm that Miss Davis
is indeed the one who saved his life? Don’t get
the wrong person again!”
Tom sighed. “We can confirm it. Although Miss Davis said the token was sold by her mother, we conducted a lie
detector test on her and could confirm she wasn’t
lying.”
“Is that Miss Davis really mentally ill?”
“Yes, we've consulted many experts both domestically and abroad; she has severe claustrophobia and autism.
My boss is her only redemption and hope for life...”

Tom looked at them, trying to explain on behalf of Lewis. “Miss Olsen, | know you must be blaming my
boss right now, but my boss never planned on
marrying Miss Davis. It’s only her wishful thinking! All these years, my boss has been paying for her medical
treatment, but all the doctors said her condition was
too severe...”
Tom sighed. “I've been monitoring her all these years, thinking what if Miss Davis makes a mistake? If she could
just slip up, | could persuade my boss to give her up. But she hasn't, and the only excessive thing she did in all
these years was during that birthday banquet, pretending to be Mrs. Horton for a moment, but later she gave a
reasonable explanation, saying it was because everyone just assumed she was, and she feared denying it would
cause trouble for my boss. Since then, she’s been staying quietly in the psychiatric hospital...”
Hearing this, Samuel felt it was ridiculous. “Is she so innocent? What should we do then? It's not like every time
she tries to kill herself, Lewis should go watch over her, right? Then what's the point of my boss’s marriage?”

Tom gave a wry smile. “I guess that’s why my boss decisively chose Miss Olsen and gave up on Miss Davis
previously. But after all, she saved his life once. Can he really just watch her die?”
Samuel was silent for a moment.
As a man, he always understood how important a sense of responsibility was.
If Lewis could be this ruthless toward Madeleine now,

could he one day be just as ruthless toward Keira?
The two of them fell silent for a moment.
Keira, with her eyes downcast, said, “The public opinion that has cup is a bit baffling. You two go find out
what's happening.”
Tom immediately said, “We've looked into it. The first branch of the family is making trouble.”
“Then press it down hard. Don’t let this matter get
more attention.”
Tom immediately nodded. “I will.”
Samuel sneered. “The trending topic may have been suppressed, but now someone is broadcasting live from the
hospital!”

After hanging up, Keira opened Samuel's live broadcast.
The live broadcast was evidently started by a journalist, and although the Horton family’s security guards
blocked them from getting close, one could still glimpse inside the ward.
Madeleine kept holding Lewis’s hand, not letting him leave.
It was only after her body could finally withstand a large dose of sedatives that she at last calmed down.
And so, Lewis was freed.
The journalist, unable to get close to Lewis for an interview, stood in front of the camera and began. “The only
redemption in her life is him, yet Mr. Horton has cruelly given up on her - how is this different from sending
someone to their death? How can Mr. Horton
be so heartless?”
“This is Gossip Daily, and we will keep an eye on this
news until the end.”
Keira turned off the live broadcast.
Both in her vision and in her mind were images of

Lewis's back in front of Madeleine's bed.
That back, once as solid as a mountain that provided a sense of reliability, now seemed on the verge of being
crushed.
Keira suddenly felt a bit sorry for him.
The night deepened gradually.
Madeleine’s condition stabilized, and her life was no longer in danger.
Lewis finally returned to the Horton residence.
He didn’t get out of the car, but sat inside, lighting a cigarette.
Flashes of the doctor's words sparked in his mind. “Miss Davis's will to live is very weak. If you really are not
coming to accompany her any further, then there is no need for further rescue because she’ll definitely attempt
suicide a second time... Even if we can
monitor her at all times, what can we do if she is
determined to die and refuses food and drink?
Moreover, she has a hundred ways to kill herself, and
we just need a moment of negligence... Mr. Horton, I'm sorry, | cannot guarantee the patient's safety.”

Lewis took a deep drag of his cigarette.
Then he finally got out of the car.
Old Mrs. Horton's courtyard was very quiet.
Lewis quietly entered his own bedroom, and as soon as
he entered the door, he saw a familiar silhouette
sitting on the sofa in the dim room.
Lewis was slightly startled and was about to say something when he heard Keira.
“Let’s get a divorce.”
Keira’s voice was very faint.
At the stime, the courier had driven for six hours
and finally arrived at 76 Glow Village.
The more he drove, the more alarmed he became.
Because No. 76 wasn’t just any small village house. This imposing big tile-roofed house stretched down an
entire street!
It was clearly a grand family estate, the ancestral home
here.

entrance and then knocked on the door.
Someone cto open the door.
The courier asked, “Excuse me, is there someone
called ‘Stubborn Five’ here?”
The servant immediately frowned. “What Stubborn Five? Never heard of that name! Go away!”
It was his boss’s package, and he had promised to deliver it, so the courier refused to leave. Instead, he
_started shouting. “Stubborn Five! Stubborn Five! You
have a package!”
Mr. Horton, who had just entered the courtyard, heard the argument at the entrance and was slightly taken
aback. He cover and asked with a frown.
“Whose package is it?”
The servant said, “This courier says it’s for Stubborn Five. We don’t have anyone by that nin our house. |
told him he’s got the wrong place, but he won't leave!”
No sooner had the servant finished speaking than Mr. Horton's eyes widened in disbelief, and he asked,
“Who?”

“Stubborn Five!”
Mr. Horton immediately becexcited, stepping forward to face the courier. “Yes, yes, there is such a person in
the house!”
After being kidnapped and returned home, Lewis would run to the front gate every day to wait for his
mail.
Later, when he was about to go abroad, he repeatedly instructed if anyone sent him a letter, they must
remember to tell him.
Even after going abroad, he would still call every three or five days to ask if anyone had sent him a letter...
He only stopped in the past couple of years.
He immediately took the package from the courier and looked at the driver. “Make another trip. Take it to
Lewis!”
He thought of Lewis's previous instructions and said, “Make sure to hand it to him personally!”
The courier thought of his boss’s request to deliver the package directly to the recipient, and immediately added,
“I'll go with you!”
