Henry started singing helplessly, “Fault, fault, fault, it’s all my fault..!”
Sebastian started the car, disdain clear on his face as he drove while complaining, “I say, Old Fifth, I
wonder what’s worrying you that you had to buy such a cheap car. The feel of these wheels can’t even
compare to those million-dollar cars of yours, okay?”
Stanley continued to ignore him.
Vrrt, vrrt, vrrt..
Just then, Henry’s phone vibrated. Someone named ‘Cute Bunny’ had sent him a voice message on
WeChat. Henry simply played it.
“Wuu… Hubby, hubby, hug me… Hubby, why aren’t you in-game? Carry me!”
Forgetting that his phone was on loudspeaker, Henry was dumbstruck the moment the message
played. A typical sweet and babyish voice was lethal when being coquettish. He immediately let out an
awkward cough. Everyone else looked nonchalant, like this was something normal.

“One of my friends has invested in a large-scale Three Kingdoms online game called Heroes
Assemble. It’s now at an internal testing stage, where the saved data will remain after going live. He
invited me to play it a little while back, so I did,” said Henry.
He continued to gush about the game, “And guess what? The gaming experience is quite nice, so I’m
now hooked. I started putting money into the game and accidentally became the strongest player in the
server. Because of this, many girls started throwing themselves at me. After my account reached level
70 and I could get married, I picked the one with the sweetest voice and married her.”
Having seen through Henry, Sebastian took a jab at him, “Why don’t you just be honest and say that
you’re bored with real-life women, so you’re now looking for mystery and excitement online? How can I
not understand what a casanova like you is thinking?”
“Don’t call me a casanova. Like you’re any better,” Henry poked back.
“F*ck!” Rendered speechless, Sebastian immediately changed directions, dealing heavy damage with
each sentence, “Didn’t you previously vow that you would never date online again? I recall that you
were cheated real bad last year because of it.”
“I remember that it was a male who used a voice changer to cheat you out of a lot of money. When you
asked to meet up, that person immediately blocked you. Then, you had that person investigated, only
to find that he was actually a stingy forty year old man,” added Sebastian.
Henry looked annoyed. “F*ck you, stop trying to taint your daddy’s ears.”
Gary couldn’t resist snickering. “Actually, I find it hard to understand how a person like you, who has
dealt with so many women before, could be cheated.”
Even Stanley who had not joined in on the conversation was curling his lips slightly.
“That’s because the other party was too skilled in deception. Like you’d know anything about it,” scoffed
Henry.
“That perfect baby-ish voice sounds like a voice changer too,” Sebastian added.
Henry rolled his eyes at him. “Shut it! We had a video call before, she’s a beauty.”

The next day was when Emily was supposed to return to her paternal home for a visit.
Early in the morning, the Sullivan family received news from the police that Tom’s assistant had
confessed about Tom instructing him to hire goons to attack someone. Tom was sentenced to one
month’s detention.
Once again, the Sullivan family fell into chaos. Emily couldn’t possibly leave at a time like this, so she
called home and explained her situation.
May was raving mad when she heard this, while Jeremy had instead remarked that Tom deserved it.
The family lunch banquet would continue as planned, and Jeremy requested that Xyla bring Stanley
along.

In the afternoon, Stanley drove his black Honda to the Quest manor, bearing the various gifts that Xyla
had asked him to buy.
