“Back then?” Vivian sighed. “Honestly, I think you’ve already figured most of it out.”

Iris had been present during some of the arguments between Vivian and Vanessa before.

Given everything that had been said, sonicone as intelligent as Iris had probably pieced together of the story already.

“My sister was always the favorite growing up,” Vivian said. “Probably a lot like Olivia is now.”

A trace of bitterness crossed her face.

“The difference is that my sister grew up into someone hopelessly obsessed with love. She insisted on following Samuel when he had absolutely nothing.”

Back then, Samuel had been a poor entrepreneur trying to build a company from scratch.

Vanessa had fallen for him completely. She constantly used her own money to support his business, and eventually she even began secretly taking money from our parents.

“Our parents saw how much she loved him and eventually chose to look the other way.” Vivian’s expression darkened. “But when Samuel’s company ran into a major financial crisis, she embezzled funds from our parents‘ company to save him.”

“After that, the company’s situation deteriorated rapidly.”

“Our parents thought about it for a long time before deciding to sell the business to a foreign buyer so they could at least leave enough money behind for us to live comfortably.”

Iris asked, “Didn’t they ever consider starting over?”

Vivian nodded.

“They did.”

“But they were even more afraid of losing everything.”

“They didn’t want to gamble with our futures, so they planned to use only a small portion of the money to start a new business.”

Unfortunately, that plan never happened.

The couple died before they could begin.

Fearing that Vanessa would once again hand everything over to Samuel, they entrusted the inheritance entirely to Vivian.

They repeatedly warned her never to give the money to Samuel’s company.

“After that,” Vivian continued quietly, “I started believing that money was the source of all these problems/4

So I never touched the inheritance.”

Instead, she kept it hidden away. She would rather raise her son in the old apartment where they had always lived than use that money.

“Iris, what are you planning to do?”

Vivian knew that Iris was now the daughter of one of the wealthiest families in the country.

She couldn’t help worrying.

“I’m not asking you to forgive my sister.” She hesitated before continuing. “I just hope you’ll spare her life.”

Vivian had seen enough of the Noir Family to know they were powerful.

And as for Ares Barclay…

Even she could tell that he was not someone to be underestimated.

Sometimes she worried that one day Ares might decide to avenge Iris and arrange for Vanessa to suffer some unfortunate “accident.”

“Nothing like that will happen. Aunt Vivian.”

Iris couldn’t help wondering what kind of terrifying image her new family had somehow created in Vivian’s mind.

After delivering the invitation and chatting a little longer, Iris left the hospital.

Meanwhile, there was good news from Venus.

Yonki had sent her an update.

Ever since Venus had recruited Riley, the company’s performance had increased severalfold.

Some people were simply born with business instincts.

Given enough time to adapt, they could quickly rise again and produce remarkable results.

After thinking it over, Iris sent invitations to them as well.

When Yonki received his invitation, he couldn’t help feeling a sense of disconnect.

It was hard to reconcile the young woman who had been helping guide the company’s development with someone now sending out invitations for a graduation banquet.

“Don’t worry,” he replied. “We’ll definitely be there.”

Originally, Iris had assumed she wouldn’t need many invitations. She thought she’d only be inviting Foundation Class, Vivian, and a few others. Instead, the number kept growing until she actually ran out of invitations and had to order more.

Riley had seen the news about Iris’s exam results and wanted to attend with Yonki to offer congratulatio

The Quinn family wanted invitations as well.

That evening, Iris returned to her room and started a video call with Zane Walker.

“By the way, Boss, can I come too?” He grinned. “I’ll attend as the CEO of Stellar Venture. Nobody will suspect that we know each other.”

“Once we solve the company’s cash flow problems, there should still be quite a bit left over.” Vanessa smiled. “Maybe we should save the rest as Olivia’s future wedding gift.”
