Gwen glanced at Simone, who nodded and pointed to the phone. Gwen made an OK gesture in

response. Then she said to Adam, “Dad, this time I’m back, and I don’t plan to go abroad

again

Adam, showing more patience with Gwen, asked, “Did you have another conflict with Harold?” Gwen

replied. “We broke up.”

Adam asked unexpectedly, “How did you break up?” Gwen told the truth. “He was flirting with his

secretary while leading me on. I’ve had enough, so I won’t play with him anymore. There are plenty of

men in the world, and I can live without him.”

She couldn’t help but add, “There are also good women everywhere. No one can’t live without

someone else. Don’t be obsessed with love.” Adam chuckled from the other end of the phone. It seems

like my daughter has grown up. It’s good that you’re happy now. Can’t imagine that Harold is playing

both sides and with the complexity of the Jenners, it’s not going to end well.

“I told you before that he’s not a good match, but you didn’t listen and insisted on going abroad with

him.” If it were in the past, Gwen would have argued and said that he was no different from Melinda.

But thinking of Adam’s situation, she held back.

She said, ‘I understand now. Adam smiled and said, You’re so beautiful and capable. You will find

someone better than Harold.” Gwen raised her chin and agreed, “That’s for sure.”

Then the topic changed. “Dad, I’m not interested in love right now, but I’m very motivated in my career.

How about arranging for me to work at the Foster Group? After all, I also have shares.”

This was what Simone asked her to inquire about. Adam obviously didn’t expect Gwen to say that. He

remained silent for a moment before saying, “It’s not the right time yet, wait a little longer.” Gwen

pretended to be unhappy. “You’re just like Melinda, always favoring the eldest.”

Adam didn’t get angry, but instead uttered, “Don’t worry, you will have what he has too.” He continued,

“There’s something urgent in my company, so let’s not talk about it for now.”

Gwen knew that he didn’t want to continue the previous topic. “Okay, but you have to promise me one

thing.”

Adam asked, “What is it?” Gwen acted coquettish and said, “You have to take me out for a meal

tomorrow, and I’ve set my eyes on a set of jewelry. You have to buy it for me.” Adam said with a

helpless and indulgent tone, “Alright, little girl. I’ll take you to buy it tomorrow.”

Gwen smiled and said, “That’s perfect. Bye, Dad!” After hanging up the phone, Gwen looked at Simone

and asked, “Simone, have you noticed anything? Otherwise, why would you

suddenly suggest that I go work at the Foster Group?” She never liked Skyler before, and now she

didn’t want to see him even more.

Simone honestly replied, “I feel like your dad knows something, and when he called you, it wasn’t really

about the mystical tool. He even gave you advice and told you to go find your grandmother.

In the Fosters, Old Mrs. Foster was the person Melinda feared the most. Hearing her say this, Gwen

also realized it. She thought carefully and said, “That’s true. Every time Melinda asks my dad to deal

with me and Leon, he always handles it lightly. It seems like it’s all for show in front of Melinda.”

Gwen then asked with a strange expression, “You’re saying that my dad already knows he’s being

cheated on?”

Simone uttered, “It’s not impossible. Especially with what he said earlier, it always feels meaningful.

Like it’s not the right time yet, or like Skyler has something that you definitely will have too. I feel like

your dad isn’t really in love.”

If he was in love, he would prioritize love above all else, and what would his children mean in front of

the woman he loves? If he truly loved Melinda, he would listen to everything she said. Just now on the

phone, he would have used a stern tone or even commanded Gwen to bring out the mystical tool.

The most surprising thing was that Adam took the initiative to advise Gwen and suggested she go find

Old Mrs. Foster. He couldn’t possibly know that Melinda feared her the most. This was very intriguing.

The more Gwen thought about it, the more she felt that Simone’s words made sense.

She asked in confusion, “So, what is my dad planning?” Is he trying to make Melinda jealous? He’s not

crazy,”

Simone thought for a moment and said, “There must be hidden motives behind this.

“And haven’t you noticed a coincidence? Skyler, Jodie, and Freya are half–siblings with the same

father. They have the same father, but three different mothers.”

Gwen couldn’t help but comment, “Is he a boar that only knows how to mate? But it does feel strange,

how can things be so coincidental.”

She added with disdain, “Is Melinda blind? How could she steal such a man and even have his

illegitimate child?”

Simone saw further. “She knows that Jodie is that man’s daughter, otherwise she wouldn’t take care of

her so much. There are secrets here that we don’t know about.”

Gwen agreed. “Definitely. She then asked, “Should I remind my dad to not be naive?” She
