“We get along well enough,” Arabella replied vaguely.

“It seemed like Mr. Stewart was rather concerned about you,” Edward observed.

He believed that if it weren’t for Arabella, Matthew wouldn’t have intervened today.

“When I was treating Robert, I also helped Mr. Stewart manage a chronic stomach issue. Since then, we’ve had some professional overlap,” Arabella explained simply.

“I see,” Edward said, not pressing further.

“Edward, let’s go tour the departments,” Arabella suggested.

Edward looked at her, his expression turning more serious. “Arabella, about what Harper said earlier… do you know something about it?”

He could tell Arabella hadn’t seemed surprised at all.

Arabella lowered her gaze slightly. “Edward, I don’t know all the details. I just know the company’s licensing hit some roadblocks, and I asked my friend to help clear them.”

She didn’t want to be too blunt, worried it might be too much for Edward to process.

Hearing this, Edward’s hands clenched unconsciously, a cold feeling settling in his chest.

“So what Harper said was true. They not only refuse to support me, they’re actively trying to stop me.” Edward’s heart ached. Was this really his own family?

Seeing his pained expression, Arabella sighed softly. “Edward, what’s done is done. There’s no point dwelling on it.”

“But they’re my family,” Edward said, struggling to accept it.

“I know. That’s why my advice is this–since you’ve chosen your path, walk it without looking back. Let any setbacks become motivation to push forward,” Arabella said calmly, her gaze steady.

What doesn’t break you makes you stronger.

Edward was silent for a long moment, then finally took a deep breath, his eyes growing resolute. “Arabella, thank you Funderstand what I need to do now.”

Arabella was right. He needed to be strong–stronger than ever.

A hint of satisfaction flickered in Arabella’s eyes. She had been hesitant to tell him earlier, worried it might shake his resolve. Fortunately, he now seemed truly determined to forge his own way.

“Edward, I’ll always be in your corner,” Arabella said, extending her right hand toward Edward.

Edward looked at her, then smiled and met her hand with a firm high five, just like they used to when making promises as kids

That gesture meant there was no turning back–they would support each other unconditionally.

Seeing he had moved past the emotional hurdle, Arabella grinned playfully. “So, can we go inspect your company now?”

“Your Majesty, after you,” Edward said with a slight, affectionate bow, gesturing for her to lead.

“Let’s go!” Arabella laughed, and they left the office together.

‘Look into the company behind this social media profile. I want a complete dossier on everyone involved,” Matthew instructed coolly.

After receiving the notification, Andy replied, “Yes, sir.”

‘Why are you investigating them?” Robert asked curiously.

Did he not trust Arabella?

Standard due diligence,” Matthew said without elaboration.

Robert gave Matthew a warning look. “If you don’t trust Dr. Hamilton, then you shouldn’t have asked her for the contact.”

First, he asks for the referral, now he’s investigating it? What kind of logic is that?

Matthew raised an eyebrow slightly. “Grandfather, after all your years in business, have you ever trusted anyone without verifying heir background?”

Me?” Robert sputtered, his beard twitching. “That’s different. I trust Dr. Hamilton.”

That’s Dr. Hamilton. The entity I’m looking into is this one,” Matthew clarified, not conflating the two.

lobert grew even more annoyed. Wasn’t that still a form of distrust toward Arabella? This stubborn grandson of his.

Grandfather, Dr. Hamilton said you should focus on your health, avoid getting agitated, and worry less,” Matthew reminded him Jently.

Robert gave Matthew’s arm a light smack. “You not vexing me would do wonders for my health.”

Matthew didn’t flinch, and Robert hadn’t hit him hard–just shot him a stern glare before withdrawing his hand.

‘Mr. Stewart, preliminary findings” Andy’s voice came through.

‘Go ahead,” Matthew said flatly

‘This isn’t a firm–it’s just an individual Records show they operate enturely through remote communication, and this social media handle is the sole point of contact,” Andy reported

“That’s it?” Matthew’s eyes narrowed slightly.

“Yes, sir,” Andy confirmed, adding quietly, “It’s a rather elusive setup, to be honest
