Adriana nodded.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She had started preparing for this competition as soon as she came to Pastalia.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She absolutely could not lose.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Because in this competition, her biggest rival was Danielle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She had to steal the reputation Danielle wanted.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Otherwise, it would give Danielle a chance to return to the Bartons and fight for the inheritance.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAdriana\u2026\u201d Irene held Adriana\u2019s hand, hesitating to speak.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She wanted to tell Adriana that she was the true heir to the Bartons.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But she also felt that Curtis should be the one to tell her this secret.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In Haldoria, Danielle was diligently working on her design drawings in her office when she received a call from overseas.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was Natasha\u2019s cousin, Cheryl.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDanielle, Adriana might be coming back to compete against you in the Haldoria architectural design competition! I overheard her conversation with her professor.\u201d Cheryl called Danielle anxiously.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle\u2019s expression darkened. \u201cWhat exactly were they discussing?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThey were speaking in Pastalian. I didn\u2019t study hard enough when I was learning languages. I didn\u2019t understand everything, but\u2026 she\u2019s already finished her design work and had her professor review it and give feedback. She said she\u2019s using that piece for the competition.\u201d Cheryl was a bit embarrassed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle frowned, cursing \u201cuseless\u201d in her mind. \u201cHere\u2019s what you do. Find a way to get Adriana\u2019s design work and send it to me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cheryl hesitated. \u201cDanielle, our professor is very serious about intellectual property protection. He definitely keeps Adriana\u2019s design work well protected. I\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cCheryl, I remember you\u2019ve always wanted to make a name for yourself in architectural design so your family won\u2019t be overshadowed by your cousin\u2019s family anymore, right? If you help me this time, my position back home\u2026 will be unshakeable. When you return, whatever you want will be yours for the taking.\u201d Danielle\u2019s lips curved up as she tempted Cheryl.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cheryl was silent for a long time, thinking for a moment before speaking, \u201cDanielle, I\u2019ll find a way to get Adriana\u2019s design.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
In Pastalia, when Adriana came out of her professor\u2019s office, she happened to run into Cheryl.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cheryl snorted coldly at Adriana, still with that arrogant attitude, and walked into the professor\u2019s office carrying a stack of materials.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana watched Cheryl enter the office, her lips curving up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That day, she had known Cheryl was eavesdropping outside and deliberately told her professor she was going back home to participate in the design competition, because Cheryl would definitely tell Danielle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana understood that Jeremy\u2019s body probably couldn\u2019t hold on much longer. She had to go back. The burden of the Bartons would fall on her shoulders sooner or later. She had to use this design competition to make a name for herself in the industry and take over Barton Group with authority and crush Danielle and Chandler underfoot to show them who\u2019s boss.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And Cheryl was the perfect pawn.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle was fundamentally an insecure woman. She knew very well that Adriana had exceptional talent in architectural design. Worried that her own work wouldn\u2019t measure up, she would definitely cheat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Hidden around the corner in the hallway, Adriana saw Cheryl get the professor out of the room, then access his computer.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Obviously, she was going to steal Adriana\u2019s design work for Danielle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This was just the bait Adriana had deliberately put out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana had already had her professor submit and archive the original of this work on the international architectural design competition website.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before the international architectural design competition announced its results, Danielle wouldn\u2019t be able to find anything about this design online, so Danielle would definitely boldly plagiarize her design.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In Harborton, Jeremy was now so weak he was barely recognizable. The doctor prescribed one last powerful injection so he could wait for Adriana to come home.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAdriana\u2026 is she back yet?\u201d Jeremy\u2019s voice was weak and hoarse.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Barton, her flight arrives tomorrow. Don\u2019t worry.\u201d Justin said softly, his eyes reddening.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Everyone said Justin was the Bartons\u2018 dog, that he was Jeremy\u2019s dog\u2026 but no matter what others said, Justin remembered his kindness.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The debt of raising is greater than the debt of birth\u2013this was something Justin had always kept in his heart.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He was an orphan. Without Jeremy, he wouldn\u2019t be where he is today.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He wasn\u2019t a greedy person by nature, which was why he\u2019d been able to resist corruption all these years and maintain his principles.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDid you tell Adriana\u2026\u201d Jeremy gripped Justin\u2019s hand, worried that Adriana wouldn\u2019t be able to accept the fact that she was the true Barton heir.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCurtis should have already told her.\u201d Justin reassured him again. \u201cMr. Barton, don\u2019t worry. Adriana isn\u2019t someone who can\u2019t see the big picture.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jeremy nodded.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He had failed Adriana, failed to protect her or her parents.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The tragedy that befell the Bartons back then was his failure as an elder.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBeep, beep, beep\u2026 \u201d Suddenly, the medical equipment in the room started beeping frantically. Justin looked in panic at Jeremy, whose breathing was becoming more and more labored. \u201cMr. Barton! Mr. Barton\u2026 you have to hold on. You\u2019ve held on for so long. You have to wait for Adriana to come back!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
