[What did sheit write?]

Samuel was completely confused by President Wade’s seemingly random comment.

President Wade didn’t answer immediately.

Instead, he took a photo and sent it to him.

The image showed a newspaper clipping.

It was the public announcement Vanessa had published on the day Iris left the Sutton family.

The newspaper was from Kingsley. Printed in black and white was a formal statement declaring that Iris had severed all ties with the Sutton family.

He actually kept a copy of that newspaper?

Samuel’s expression stiffened.

Clearly, using Iris’s name was no longer an option.

Now all he could do was wait for the promised investment returns and try to solve the problem with

money.

Determined not to lose momentum, he decided to send President Wade an advance “donation” as a gesture of goodwill.

The moment he opened the transfer page, he froze.

He could no longer see President Wade’s name.

He’d been blocked.

And before blocking him, President Wade had sent one final message.

[Capital University has never lacked donations. We certainly don’t need money from a family willing to abandon their adopted daughter.]

When Samuel tried to reply, all he received was a message–unsent notification.

Vanessa walked over.

‘Don’t worry, honey.” She sounded confident. “If he turned down our donation, it only means the amount wasn’t high enough.”

She smiled. “Once that investment money arrives, we’ll throw a few million dollars at him. I refuse to believe he won’t change his mind.”

The menton of the investment made Samuel glance at his account again.

Still nothing.

No a single cent had appeared.

A strange sense of unease crept into his chest.

He immediately opened his contacts to message the friend who had introduced him to the opportunity.

“Where is he?”

His heart skipped a beat.

The chat history was gone.

Completely gone.

Samuel stared at his phone screen so intensely it seemed as though he wanted to burn a hole through it.

“Impossible…”

“No… that’s impossible…”

Clinging to the last shred of hope, he dialed the number.

A mechanical voice answered.

“We’re sorry. The number you have dialed is not in service”

Vanessa immediately noticed the color draining from his face.

A feeling of dread washed over her.

“Honey…” Her voice trembled. “What happened to the money?”

Samuel felt lightheaded. His vision blurred.

“The money…” His lips shook. “It’s gone.”

At that very moment, every dollar had already been transferred back into Vivian’s account.

There was even more money there than before.

After spending some time at a café, Iris prepared to leave.

Her hand had already touched the glass door when she suddenly used.

Turning around, she walked back to the counter.

The Italian owner looked up with a friendly smile.

Something wrong, miss

The coffee beans” Iris glanced at the machine. Try reducing the brewing time by two minutes next im The flavor will be richer.

What?

The owner quickly recreated the exact same coffee he’d served Iris earlier.

The only difference was shortening the brewing time by two minutes.

He lifted the cup and took a cautious sip.

Immediately, surprise flashed across his sapphire–blue eyes.

She was right.

The taste really was different.

Much better.

By the time he looked up again, Iris had already left.

She had no idea she’d just made a lasting impression.

After leaving Capital University, Iris returned to the Noir family villa.

As soon as she entered, she found Richard and Eleanor sitting on the living room sofa.

A thick stack of brochures and documents covered the coffee table.

“Iris, you’re back!” Eleanor smiled warmly. “Dinner will be ready soon.”

“What’s all this?”

Iris noticed both of them wearing reading glasses.

She picked up one of the brochures.

“Studying abroad?”

Richard nodded.

“I actually…” She forced a smile. “I’d rather stay here with you.”

Was this some kind of joke?

There was no way she could leave Iris alone in the Noir household.

By the time she returned, there might not be any place left for her at all.

The issue wasn’t only Chloe’s behavior. Her grades simply weren’t domestic universities. Studying abroad genuinely seemed like
