Matchmaking on the Cruise Ship  I was restless the entire night.


    Every time I thought about my past with Matthew, I couldn''t find peace. I pitied Grace, who had no one to rely on at such an old age, unlike others who had their families.


    Her whole life had been pitiful, and now, at the end, she still pleaded for her son.


    After Grace settled in with me, Matthew came once to see her with a lot of supplements, treating her like a neighbor. He didn''t mention taking her back with him, perhaps feeling that she would be better cared for here.


    However, he did inform Grace that


    Abby had been detained for 15 days due to causing trouble here. This brought Grace some joy; she thought it was her son taking revenge for her, but it was actually As''s doing. I didn''t tell her, though.


    I wanted to let her leave thinking that her son did care for her.

    The house I found for Lauren was in the duplex building next to Ivanna''s, with about 120 square meters of space.


    As helped find it, and I made the decision to buy it because I couldn''t reach her and didn''t know where she had gone, whether it was abroad or within the country.


    But I knew Oliver hadn''t given up on finding her. He had changed significantly; I saw him once from a distance, without even exchanging a


    greeting.


    [ knew he had been under the impression that I had intentionally  kept him in the dark.


    On Friday, Arthur hosted a grand gathering for the business people in Foswood, which turned out to be quite an extraordinary event. Surprisingly, it took ce on a luxurious yacht, spanning two days and two nights, starting Friday evening and concluding Sunday afternoon.


    This grand event caused a stir throughout Foswood, as Arthur''s reputation had attracted many attendees from foreign financial groups andrge businesses, making it an unprecedented grand event.


    At that moment, it wasn''t just the businessmunity that was shaken;


    the scions, elites, socialites and celebrities of Foswood were all eagerly seeking tickets, turning what was initially a simple businessworking event into what seemed like a grand show of their status.


    On Friday, some socialites arrived at the port early, carrying a whole trunk of clothing, eager to showcase themselves at the gathering. It was truly unbelievable how their minds worked. Was this what it meant to have status? From my perspective, it seemed like they had too much leisure time on their hands.


    As arrived on time to pick me up. I had indeed brought two sets of clothing, as we were going to be on the ship for two days. The gown I wore today was the one As had sent over just the day before,beled as a formal


    dress but quite conservative in style, covering my shoulders, back, and legs adequately. Yet, he kept praising how beautiful I was.


    I had to admit, the dress was genuinely stunning. It was a strong metallic champagne color, with simple and sleek lines. The unique feature of the dress was the fragmented diamond texture embedded in the fabric, creating a flowing pattern reminiscent of ocean waves. The neckline was particrly artful, featuring a  design that highlighted the elegant curve of the neck.


    The stylist had also styled my hair into wavy strands, tied back elegantly. It gave me a lively and graceful appearance.


    Upon reaching the port, I could see a


    red carpetid out, and many people were scrambling to board the ship. The scene reminded me of the Titanic.


    As soon as we got out of the car, specialized personnel guided us  through a separate passage, avoiding  the general crowd. Upon boarding the ship, I saw Arthur personally waiting  at the entrance of the VIP hall, walking toward us from a distance.
