Fear turned into extreme joy. Emelyn covered her face, tears choking:
"Really? You remember? You remember me? Huhuhu, son, you don't know how heartbroken I was this month."
"Yes, I remember everything."
He not only remembered the past, but also clearly remembered the time when he lost his memory; the crazy actions of pursuing Emma made him feel alienated from himself.
But what made him most bitter was that those actions did not bring any results.
And now, he also clearly realized that Emma had remarried.
The person she married was someone he did not dare to touch, nor could he touch – Alexander Knight.
Joshua frowned:
"Daniel, when did you offend him? Or is this just a misunderstanding?"
"There is no misunderstanding." Daniel's voice carried resentment, but also a bit of helplessness:
"He is Emma's current husband. The person she remarried is Alex."
Emelyn was so surprised that she was speechless:
"This... how did this happen?"
During the entire process of being "treated" with strange methods, Daniel had never seen Alex appear from beginning to end.
Only when he was in a trance did he accidentally see a doctor on a video call with someone. The face of the man who was Emma's current husband appeared on the screen. He clearly heard the other person calling him "Mr. Alex".
Daniel was not stupid. He immediately understood everything. The person who could buy expensive rings, drive a supercar, have a mysterious aura, and even make Patrick wary - could only be Alex.
He could not have expected that the person Emma remarried would be Alex.
Moreover, he bitterly realized: the one who had an affair and betrayed in this relationship was he, not Emma. As for Alex, in his eyes, he was just a third party who interfered in their marriage.
He laughed bitterly. All of this was ridiculous.
"Impossible. How could this be? How could Emma get involved with Alex?" Emelyn shouted in agitation. "What did she rely on to attract Alex's attention?"
What she meant was: an abandoned woman like Emma, how could she catch Alex's eye? Was he blind?
Only Daniel did not open his mouth.
Joshua looked at his son, his voice cold:
"Daniel?"
"I know, Dad. If it's not necessary, I won't go looking for Emma anymore."
When he returned to his room, he realized that everything was really over.
From now on, he and Emma would be just two strangers, each with their own lives.
Even though he didn't want to, he couldn't do anything. Alex – that man – was not someone he could touch right now.

"Is that all? Alex, you treat your enemy so 'gently'?"
Alex sneered:
"It's a rule of law society. But he has six special days, enough to remember for the rest of his life."
"So are you interested in the status of Sterling Group?"
Patrick raised his eyebrows:
"Are you going to make a move?"
"You can't let others continue to jump around; otherwise, he will think he's very talented."
Seeing Alex's cold eyes, Patrick knew that the Williams family's luck had really ended this time.

"Veronika, from today onwards, stay away from Daniel, understand?"
Peyton coldly instructed with a warning look.
Veronika's face was pale with surprise:
"Mom, why is this happening?"
"Why? His family is about to be in trouble, because they've touched Alex. He has publicly warned all the clans, whoever dares to help the Williams family is declaring war on him."
*... How did it turn out like this?*
Then what will happen to Daniel?
Although Veronika had used him before, there was still a part of her heart that really liked that man.
"Alex is such a person; how could he target the Williams family for no reason?"
Peyton chuckled:
"For no reason? Who told you that? Remember Emma, who divorced him? She had a good relationship with Mr. Collins, and he and Alex's father were old friends. Think about it, could it be for no reason?"
She laughed coldly:
"It's also because the Williams family doesn't know what's good for them. The Carter family went bankrupt, but before that, their relationship with many clans was quite good. They are indeed cold, but what about the Williams family? Their foundation is not deep, and their behavior is too much. Treating the Carter family's daughter like this, it's well deserved to fall."
Veronika frowned. Just because of the relationship between Emma and Mr. Collins?
If she remembered correctly, Alex had once stood up to help Emma at a private party. Could it be... Alex and Emma had been in a relationship for a long time?
Veronika could only keep this bold guess in her heart, not daring to say it out loud.
"Veronika, Daniel is now just an abandoned chess piece, no longer of any use. It's best if you don't see him again. Alex is in New York recently, it seems like their family is planning something here. If you try to approach Alex, you might turn from a sparrow to a phoenix."
Veronika smiled wryly:
"Mom, Alex is not an easy person to get along with."
"Everything is man-made. Doesn't your station have an interview program? You are smart, you know what kind of women men like, right, Veronika?"
Veronika felt a little cold in her heart, but a sweet smile appeared on her face:
"I know, Mom. I will try."

Penelope didn't expect her daughter's attitude to be so cold. In the past, Emma had protected Daniel to the death, but now she had become so indifferent and heartless. But she also thought, Daniel deserved it. He had taken advantage of the Carter family for so many years and even dared to be ungrateful.
In the past, he would come to her house every few days, hoping that she would come forward to make peace, but Penelope wasn't stupid.
She didn't understand what kind of person Alex was, but she wasn't blind. Compared to Daniel, this new son-in-law was a hundred times better. She had no reason to help that useless guy.
