Could he really be Terence's father's secret love child?
The crowd's disdain for Simon grew, but he didn't seem to notice. Instead, he felt quite pleased with himself, sitting high on the stage.
"My presence here today is thanks to a very excellent woman. I would now like to invite her to the stage to say a few words."
At this, everyone began looking around. What did he mean? Who was he inviting to the stage? Could it be Terence's father's mistress? She must have stayed in the shadows for years, only to emerge now with a grown son ready to seize the throne from the man who built it.
Who on earth had such power?
Daphne knew her grandson would never disappoint her. He was about to give her the recognition she deserved. After today, everyone would know that Grace Lockwood was nothing but a joke, a woman who only held the title of Mrs. Lockwood in name only. She was the one who had spent fifty years with Edgar Lockwood, the true Mrs. Lockwood.
Daphne was about to walk onto the stage, but Edgar was furious. How dare they disobey him?
Edgar grabbed Daphne's arm. She looked at him, confused.
Suddenly, an assistant rushed over in a panic.
"This is bad, this is bad! Something's happened!" Simon said angrily, "Are you an idiot? This is my big day. Why are you yelling about things being 'bad'? Do you know how to talk? If not, I'll have your tongue cut out!"
The assistant's face was pale. He leaned in to whisper in Simon's ear, but the room was buzzing with chatter, and the noise was too loud for Simon to hear clearly.
He shouted angrily, "Louder! Are you mute? Speak up!"
She had been planning to gloat to Grace Lockwood. After all her hard work, it had all been for nothing but to pave the way for her grandson! The entire Lockwood Group belonged to her grandson; Grace’s entire life’s work had been nothing more than a stepping stone for my grandson’s rise.
But now, this huge mess had appeared. What were they going to do?
The reporters, sensing a major story, quickly stood up to ask questions.
"Now that Aurelius Dominion Group is canceling its contracts, the Lockwood Group is on the verge of bankruptcy. What are the company's next steps to save itself?"
"Aurelius Dominion Group is Aurelis's top conglomerate, and its leader is said to be extremely mysterious. Have you offended the head of Aurelius Dominion Group? It seems the future for the Lockwood Group will be incredibly difficult."
Simon exploded with rage.

The readers' comments on the novel: Caught Him Cheating My Life Restarted (Natalie)
I think Terence must know something isn't right about Angela, that's why he agreed to figure it out....
Marie needs to be gone, she has caused enough trouble for Natalie. This is getting boring!...
This fiasco needs to end. Natalie and Terrance need to be together and in my mind somehow those twins are Natalie’s....
Time for Marie to get her end, this has gone on way too long, time to move on. It’s getting boring....
Payback time. Waiting for chapters 321 onwards!...
I love the sarcastic comebacks. Quite amusing!...
