Chapter 495 1 288 Wouchers Thorne and Victoria argued for several rounds, with Victoria launching fierce attacks. However, Thorne unexpectedly unleashed a few harsh remarks, making them evenly matched. This left the Miller familyâs wives who were watching completely puzzled.
âMother, I have listened and listened, but I still donât know who is right and who is wrong between these two. I suppose their grievances are too complicated. In my opinion, itâs best for you not to get involved in their affairs,â said the second daughterâinâ
law of the Miller family.
The three daughtersâinâlaw agreed, âMother, what the second sisterâinâlaw said is reasonable. You are getting older and there is no need to bother yourself with this messy situation. Itâs better to let Victoria handle this matter herself.â
However, the four daughtersâinâlaw held opposing views, âVictoria is our motherâs savior. I see Victoria as fragile and helpless. If we just stand by and do nothing about her situation, it would make us appear too heartless.â
Lady Miller pondered for a moment and said, âVictoria, how do you wish me to assist you?â
Victoria sowed discord by saying, âVictoria doesnât dare to hope that Lady Miller would go to great lengths for me, an outsider.
However, Victoria believes that Lady Miller is charitable and wants to remind her not to be deceived by his appearance.

Lady Miller furrowed her brow slightly.
She nodded uncertainly, âI understood.â

Victoriaâs face darkened slightly.
The four daughtersâinâlaw hurriedly stepped forward and dissuaded Lady Miller, saying, âMother, you are unaware that our eldest brother has already issued an order, forbidding any assistance from the Miller family to be provided to him.â
Lady Miller pursed her lips and sighed, âWhy did he make such a fuss?â
The four daughtersâinâlaw leaned in close to Lady Millerâs ear and whispered, âThis person has a deceitful mind, but he is a genius hacker. Robert is afraid that there might be a traitor in the Miller family who will join forces with him and steal our core secrets. It would be a loss that is not worth it.â
Lady Miller sighed upon hearing the words.
âNever mind, since thatâs the case, I will not bother with their matters.â
Victoria secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Robertâs meeting didnât end until nearly noon. Just as he walked out of the meeting room, he couldnât hide his excitement, âDid he really say that? Is he my old friend from twenty years ago?â
The secretary nodded, âYes. The chairman, he appeared to be of similar age as the chairman.â
Robert hurriedly walked, and when he impatiently pushed open the office door, both he and William, who was sitting on the sofa, were startled.
William slowly stood up from the sofa.
Twenty years of time, as if it passed in the blink of an eye.
Twenty years ago, those who grew up together, studied together, and mischievously fought together, are vividly remembered.
âWilliam, is it really you?â Robertâs voice choked up.
He stumbled into the office, standing in front of William. He gazed at Williamâs aged face, tears welling up in his eyes as he said, âIâve been looking for you so many times over the past twenty years. But itâs as if you vanished into thin air. I thought I would never see you again in my lifetime. Tell me, where have you been hiding all these years?â
William sighed deeply, âOh, how tumultuous my fate has been. I suffered from a severe illness and only woke up three years ago. Now, whenever I recall those hazy and confusing twenty years, it feels like a dream. Thankfully, this nightmare 33.98%

William suddenly remembered something, and his face immediately fell.
âWell, my luck, Iâm afraid it will be ruined by you.â
Robert looked puzzled, âMe?â
William nodded, tears shimmering in his eyes, and said, âYou said I was paralyzed for twenty years, and when I woke up, I lost my home and my parents. Thanks to Sophia, who gave birth to a daughter for me. My daughter doesnât despise me for not fulfilling my fatherly duties and is extremely filial to me. She has never asked me for anything since she was young, but because she believed in my praises of you, she gathered courage to come and see you. But what about you? You treated my precious daughter with disdain, criticizing her appearance, making her eyes red when she returned home.â
âRobert, you made my daughter unhappy.â
Robert was struck by a sudden realization, âYour daughter? Could it be Miss Fletcher who visited me yesterday?â
William let out a dissatisfied grunt from his nose.
Robert felt deeply guilty, âWilliam, Iâm sorry. I didnât mean to disrespect your niece. I didnât know she was your daughter. If I had known, I would have treated her as my own.â
William glanced at him and said, âWhy did you disrespect her?

âRobert, oh Robert, itâs been a few years since we last met, how did you become so difficult to approach?â
Robert blushed and said, âWilliam, then Iâll be honest. Actually, I wasnât targeting my niece. That young man who came with her, I noticed that he is quite cunning for his age, and from what I know, his behavior is very bad. Since my niece came with him, I treated them equally.â
âIn my opinion, how could you agree to let your niece date such an illâbehaved boy?â
William lowered his head and pondered for a long time.
âRobert, you had no idea how good that boy was.â
Robert was taken aback, âHave you been lying around for too long and rusted your brain? Thatâs a person who has been to prison, how good can he be?â
William looked up again, his eyes already filled with tears.
âRobert, donât speak ill of this child in front of me. I donât like to hear it.â
Robert hesitated for a moment and said, âAlright then. If you donât want to hear it, I wonât say anything.â
William adjusted his emotions and choked as he explained to Robert, âI once misunderstood him just like you. I even wished to drive him out of my house.â
Robert was surprised and asked, âWhy did you change your opinion of him?â

Robert was stunned.
A person with a bad character, yet so affectionate and sincere? This truly contradicts his understanding.
William continued, âRobert, his story was very long. Let me tell you slowly...â
Robert poured him a glass of water and handed it to him considerately, saying, âDonât worry, we have plenty of time, brother.â
William drank some water and then faithfully told Robert everything he knew about Thorneâs story.
