Adam said, "Of course, you need to find someone who knows Dr. C. Isn't Tracy one of James's best students? You can ask Tracy to talk to James, or—"

Cenly anxiously asked, "Or?"

"Previously, Perry said he knew Dr. C and even said Dr. C was a woman. You can talk to him and find out how much truth there was in his words."

Adam hung up, and Tracy walked forward. Previously, they had been too panicked to think straight, but now Adam had pointed out what they could do next. They could go to James or Perry.

Tracy immediately said, "Let's go talk to James now!"

"Alright."

The Tate family arrived at the Lambert residence. Linda knew Carly, so she was adamant about refusing them entry.

"My apologies, the person you're looking for, Mr. Lambert, isn't home. Therefore, I cannot allow you to enter." Carly's face paled. On any other day, she would have turned and left. However, she needed a favor, so she would have to act more humbly.

She softened her tone and asked, "We have an urgent matter to discuss with Mr. Lambert. Can you go in and report this to him?" Linda snorted derisively. "People have urgent matters every day. Should I let everyone in just like that? Who do you think you are?" Linda vividly remembered the humiliation Carly and Melody had inflicted on Hailey. Therefore, she would never be friendly toward Carly.

Tracy stepped forward and said urgently, "I'm one of Mr. Lambert's best students; I would like to speak to him."

Linda glanced at Tracy and said, "You're just the same as her."

Tracy couldn't retort.

The Tate family members were stranded outside and grew anxious, falling into chaos again. A curious car stopped in front of the house. James happened to arrive home.

Sonia exclaimed happily, "Quick, look! Mr. Lambert is home!"

Tracy quickly stepped forward. "Mr. Lambert."

James saw Tracy. "Tracy, why are you here? And with your entire family, too?"

Tracy said urgently, "Mr. Lambert, you have to help us. The Tate family is in trouble."

James asked, "What sort of trouble?"

Tracy explained, "I met a fake Dr. C. He duped me and cheated me out of not just my love but also our money. The Tate family invested our entire fortune in him, but he took the money and ran."

James couldn't help but burst out laughing, and Sonia and everyone else present looked at him.

James said, "My apologies, I couldn't help it. Tracy, you said that Dr. C cheated you out of your love and money? What were you thinking, involving yourself with Dr. C like that? Dr. C is a—"

Dr. C was a woman. When Perry initially said those words, they didn't believe him. But now that James had said the same, they finally accepted the truth.

Sonia's face was as white as chalk as she stamped her feet in regret. "It's a pity such a pity! I even imagined that Dr. C would become my grandson-in-law, and Tracy and Carly could have their weddings together. Then, when Dr. C and Mr. Alvarez combined their efforts to hold the wedding of the century, our family would be honored beyond measure." The sequence of heavy blows had completely shattered Sonia's dream.

James glanced at Sonia and said mysteriously, "Your family has already been honored beyond measure."

Lori was confused. "Mr. Lambert, why do you say that?"

James didn't explain, but he added, "However, you threw that honor away with your own hands."

Sonia was even more confused. Wayne and Hayden anxiously said, "Mr. Lambert, the Tate Manor and the Tate companies have all been mortgaged. We'll be forced to sleep on the streets tonight. Can you help us? You will have our eternal gratitude."

Tracy begged, "Mr. Lambert, please help us; think of something!"
