The name Stubborn Five was one that only Mr. Horton would call him, and there
was only one other person
who would use that name.
That was the little girl from back then!
After being abducted by traffickers, he realized they were planning to kill him, so
he was extremely secretive about his own name, never even telling that girl.
He merely said that he was the fifth child at home, and Grandpa called him
Stubborn Five.
But wasn't the little girl Madeleine?
When had Madeleine ever sent him a package?
Lewis looked at the old family’s driver with confusion and asked, “When was this
package sent? Did Grandpa forget to give it to me?"
The driver scratched his head. “No, it arrived the night before last. The old master
asked me to rush back here overnight to give it to you personally, saying you
mentioned before that this package was very

important to you.”
Arrived the night before last...
Could it be something Madeleine sent to him before
she jumped?
Lewis's mood suddenly weighed down.
He lowered his eyes and took a deep sigh,
“Understood.”
He entered the study again, his gaze falling on the package... then he walked
over and picked up the box.
He saw that inside was another box, which was tightly and securely wrapped in
foam.
Alongside it was a letter.
What would Madeleine say in the letter?
This must be her last words, right?
Lewis scoffed ironically and threw the letter back on the table. He leaned back in
his chair and looked at the marriage certificate on the table.
In the live broadcast, Keira had said it with such
determination.
His reluctance would be futila nouT

He picked up the marriage certificate and looked at the photo on it.
The girl was shyly smiling at the camera, the mole at the corner of her eye
exactly like Keira’...
But Lewis suddenly sat upright.
The girl in the photo wasn't her!
Keira’s gaze was always resolute; she had never been this shy and timid. This
person could change her appearance to look like Keira, but she couldn't replicate
her essence.
Lewis clenched his jaw.
Even if this woman was a fake, legally, this marriage certificate was real...
As Lewis pondered, the door was knocked.
He looked up and saw old Mrs. Horton, supported by Fiona, walking in shakily.
Lewis immediately stood up. “Grandma...”
Old Mrs. Horton sighed. “Brat, is your wife going to divorce you?”
Lewis didn’t speak.

Old Mrs. Horton said, “Brat, some things you must be able to take up and let go.
If you can’t resolve Madeleine's issue, then you can’t drag your wife down.
Otherwise, what will she do? How awkward is her
current situation?”
Lewis clenched his jaw.
He had never expected that even his grandmother, who would feign illness at just
the mention of divorce before, wasn't supporting him now...
His mouth opened and closed, wanting to say something, yet not knowing what
to say...
The struggle and pain within his heart were like a monster viciously clawing at his
lungs and heart...
He clenched his fists tightly, his voice hoarse. “Grandma, besides you, I have no
blood relatives in th life. She's the only one I wanted to hold onto. I don't want to
let go...”
As he finished speaking, old Mrs. Horton had already arrived in front of him,
gently patting his shoulder. “Brat, I agree with your wife's approach. You're too
sentimental. If the person who saved your life were to die like that, you'd never
recover for the rest of your

life. It might even become an insurmountable barrier between you and your wife
in the future. It's better to divorce now, set her free, and also give you enough
time to deal with Madeleine.
She smiled faintly. “Don’t be so pessimistic. If you and my granddaughter-in-law
are destined to be together, I believe you'll reunite in the future...”
Lewis's expression was cold. “But Grandma, what if she never gives me another
chance? What if, after the divorce, she falls in love with someone else?”
Old Mrs. Horton fell silent for a moment before finally sighing. “That would mean
you are fated but not destined to be together. Think it over carefully.”
She left these words behind and turned to leave.
The moment the study door closed, Lewis suddenly punched the wall fiercely.
“Bang!”
A bloodstain remained on the wall.
It was then that Lewis turned back to look at the
marriage certificate on the desk...
Eventually, he strode over, putting the marriage

certificate and ID card all into his pocket.
There were three hours left until two o'clock in the
afternoon.
And in three hours, Keira would no longer be Mrs.
Horton...
Lewis chuckled.
The sound of his laugh was chilling, yet it carried sorrow and helplessness, along
with a sense of inevitable despair.
He leaned back in his chair, suddenly sweeping everything from the desk onto
the floor!!
Then he tightly embraced his head.
His fists were trembling.
As luck would have it, the box fell to the ground and suddenly opened, and the
jade ring leaped out, rolling on the floor.
Lewis was slightly startled.
Following the sound, he looked over and saw the jade ring rolling a few times on
the floor before coming to a
stop...

With trembling hands, he slowly opened the letter...
The handwriting wasn't Madeleine's but held a strangely familiar feeling.
That sense of familiarity gave Lewis an incredible
idea...
He hastily read through the letter...
Then upon seeing the signature, he was completely stunned.
