Lady Miller looked sharply at Mr. Joshua and said, “Who else in the Miller family, besides your eldest brother, has
the ability to inherit the Miller family? Your brothers are devoted to academia, while you are just a lazy young
man. Unfortunately, your eldest brother has no children, so the significance of passing on this ring is lost. Now |
am giving it as a gift to someone who is destined for it, why are you in such a hurry?”
Mr. Joshua becso anxious that he blurted out his greedy desires, “Mother, who says | cannot inherit the
Miller Group's business? You just don’t believe in my abilities. If you givethe business, | promise to make it
successful. Why give it away to outsiders?”
Lady Miller did not speak, she just looked at Robert meaningfully.
Robert clenched his fist slowly, realizing that his youngest brother, whom he thought was innocent, also had
thoughts of seizing power in his heart.
“Mother, since Joshua has the idea of going into business, why not give him a try?”
Lady Miller's lips curled into a smile of unknown meaning. “Yes, since your fourth brother has the idea of going
into business, how can I, as his mother, not support him? However, he has always been a playboy, and the Miller
Group is a big family business. If he wants to do business, he needs to have the ability. In my opinion, we should
test him.”

Mr. Joshua was overjoyed and said, “Mother, the son is willing to accept any challenge.”
Lady Miller turned her gaze towards Thorne and said, “Young man, | see that you have great character and a
strong sense of loyalty towards Thea. | admire you for that. Can you doa favor, dear? Stay here for three
months, and | will give you an equal opportunity as Mr. Joshua. If you can defeat him within three months, then
you may have a chance to becthe new leader of our Miller family business.”
Thorne remained silent.
At this moment, he was certain that Lady Miller had already known his identity.
Thorne smiled helplessly and said, “Well, anyway, | have nowhere else to go now. Ill just stay here and join in
the fun.”
Mr. Joshua, however, was very angry and frustrated. “Mother, if he really defeated me, are you really going to
give the Miller Group to him?”
Lady Miller said, “He was physically disabled and had a prison record that made people wary. If you can’t even
beat him, what use is there for you in the Miller Group?”
At this moment, Brian tugged at Mr. Joshua's sleeve and whispered to him, “Mr. Joshua, don’t worry, | will help
you win against him.”

“Did your mother defend Thorne so fiercely? Could it be that you knew each other before?”
Lady Miller shook her head, but her eyes becmoist as she
stared at Thorne.
“Robert, you go out. | have sthings | want to talk to this child alone.”
Robert pouted and looked displeased, “Mother, what is there that I, as your son, cannot hear?”
Lady Miller angrily exclaimed, “Get out.”
Robert could only leave in frustration.
“This was my office,” he muttered under his breath.
The assistant left with him.
There were only Lady Miller and Thorne left in the room.
Lady Miller walked slowly up to Thorne and said kindly, “Child, as an old lady who is nearing the end of her life, |
may pass away any day now. Could you satisfy my curiosity? | would like to see your face behind those
sunglasses.”
Thorne’s voice was hoarse, permeated with a hint of panic, “Didn't you already guess it?”
Lady Miller's cane fell to the ground, and her whole body stood there like a stiff bow. Her thin lips trembled
violently.
“How did you guess?” Thorne asked curiously.

Lady Miller sat trembling in the chair next to her, and voiced her speculation:
“And, you also have the heirloom of our Miller family in your hands, which was left to you by your mother, Olivia,
right?”
“Olivia was the child | watched grow up, she was exceptionally intelligent, surpassing many boys. She and Robert
had a brief love affair, just when their love was blossoming, the elders of the Brown family suddenly forced her to
marry the young master of the Sanchez family. Although she married him, Olivia, being so rational, would never
have children with a man she did not love.”
“Olivia passed on the heirloom ring of the Miller family to you, which is essentially a reminder to us, the people
of the Miller family, that you are a child of the Miller family. After all, only the people of the Miller family
recognize this ring.”
Thorne said, “Lady Miller is intelligent, but unfortunately she gave birth to a dull son.”
Lady Miller laughed and said, “You child, how can you speak so poorly of your own father? Robert is not foolish,
he just always feels deep down that he doesn’t deserve happiness. That's why he never expected to be blessed
with such good fortune.”
Thorne coldly interrupted Lady Miller, “Lady Miller, Robert was merely my biological father.”
Lady Miller was taken aback, “You don’t intend to trace your ancestry?”

Lady Miller was very upset. “Are you still angry with Robert? My dear, Robert just favored Brian, and it hurt your
feelings. | will definitely teach him a lesson later.”
Thorne smiled indifferently and said, “In his eyes, | am the son of his rival, and | have once caused a lot of
bloodshed and chaos, so naturally he is somewhat wary of me. Brian is his own groomed successor, so it is
normal for him to favor Brian.”
Lady Miller was puzzled, “If you are so open-minded, why are you still unwilling to acknowledge him? Theodore,
Robert is very protective of him. If he knew you were his son, he would surely dote on you.”
“I didn’t recognize him, and there were other reasons,” Thorne said despondently.
Lady Miller exclaimed excitedly, “What is the reason?”
Thorne, however, remained silent.
Lady Miller was already teary-eyed, “Well, if you don’t want to go home, | won't force you.”
At the entrance of the office, a sudden breeze blew gently.
Thorne and Lady Miller looked over and saw Thea standing at the door, wearing a delicate and elegant dress,
with a radiant smile.
“Thorne, would you please accompanyfor lunch?” The voice was gentle, and the posture humble.
Thorne’s frustration dissipated and he couldn't help but

Thea bounced in, skillfully pushed Thorne and left. Before leaving, she didn’t forget to greet Lady Miller, “Lady
Miller, I will bring Theodore back soon.”
Lady Miller nodded with a smile.
Thea brought Thorne to the large hotel across from the Miller Group. The two of them chose a secluded booth.
Just as they sat down, Thea couldn't wait to inquire, “Theodore, are you still accustomed to working?”
A shadow crossed Thorne's eyes.
Once outside, all emotions had been completely digested. “It’s alright,” the voice sounded clear and pleasant.
Thea, however, stared at him intently and said, “Take off your glasses, Thea wants to have a look?”
Thorne remained motionless. “Huh?” he exclaimed, somewhat surprised.
Thea took off Thorne’s sunglasses herself.
Thorne’s enchanting phoenix eyes were filled with bloodshot veins.
“Why do you look so haggard?”
