After hearing his words, Jane Dunn was quite reluctant to get off now.It was as though there was double-sided tape under her bottom. Haydn Soros raised his eyebrows halfway as he watched her childish demeanor at the moment... “C’mon, it’s no use if you continue holding onto the bike.”“No!” She blinked as her hands clasped firmly underneath the seat.Haydn Soros nearly burst out laughing. However, he knew that if he laughed, this woman would turn into a prickly hedgehog at once and curl hers
Jane Dunn thought that this would all be over after lunch.Clearly, someone thought otherwise. There was a trace of helplessness in Jane Dunn’s eyes. “Mr. Soros, you have eaten the beef noodle soup now.” ‘And you ate three bowls too!’“Mm-hmm. The beef noodle soup is pretty good.”“...” “Can you stop following me, Mr. Soros?” Why was this person just like sticky candy?“I told you, Mr. Soros. If you’re rich, then bring the money to East Emperor. I will not disappoint you. You can do what
On the left, her heart was thumping… Other than a beating heart, what else did she have!The resolution in her eyes turned even more resolute. The unworthy would forever remain unworthy.…However, it seemed like Jane Dunn did not have the final say in this.When night fell, under various brilliant and resplendent lights of the city, how many lonely souls were searching for their so-called ‘souls’ and ‘happiness’ in different corners of the city?“Jane Dunn, 602 asked for you.” An attendant
They left East Emperor and had their supper.At the night market, she allowed Hadyn Soros to hold her hand as they shuttled their way through the crowd.Of course, it was inevitable for odd looks to be darted their way.“Where are we going this time?” This was not the way back to East Emperor. Haydn Soros drove his Maserati and took another route.“You’ll know when we get there.”“Didn’t we agree to just have supper?”“Of course we need to take a stroll after eating supper.” ‘…Anyone w
Jane Dunn’s face looked rather dreadful… “Mr. Soros, you’re violating my rights by taking a picture of me. I strongly request you to delete it.”“For what reason?”“That’s my picture. I didn’t give you my consent to take a picture of me.”“I took this picture with my own skills. Why do I need your consent?”At this moment, anger coiled in Jane Dunn’s stomach. She gritted her teeth in anger.How could there be… such a shameless person… in this world!“Are you going to delete it or not?”“N
A black Bentley pulled over not far away. Hidden in the night and under the shady tree, it was not quite noticeable.On the backseat, Alora said reverently, “Thanks for giving me a ride home, Mr. Stewart. I’ll get going now, Mr. Stewart.” Having said that, she reached out and grabbed the door handle.Alora exerted some force and pulled the door handle. She was just about to push the door open when a hand stretched out from an angle, pressing firmly at the back of her hand. Alora was startled a
Her smile now was honest and did not look forced. Ir was so damn… attractive! And so damn… unpleasant to the eye!Not far ahead, Haydn Soros had stuffed Jane Dunn onto the front passenger seat and went around to the driver’s seat. The Maserati pulled into the road slowly.Sean Stewart’s eyes were covered in frost. He commanded the driver in front coldly, “Follow the car.”Uno responded with an “okay” before revving up the engine and tailing the Maserati. He followed Haydn Soros’ car and drove
Haydn Soros chuckled and asked, “Your thing? What could Mr. Stewart be referring to?”“I’m sure you are well aware of it, so why do I even need to say it aloud?”“If Mr. Stewart is referring to Jane...” The smile on Haydn Soros’ lips gradually faded. “She’s a living person, not an item that belongs to anyone.”There was not a trace of emotion on Sean Stewart’s good-looking face. He gazed at the other party and said, “I’ve warned you before. Even if I don’t want my things, it’s still not someo
"Your grandfather loved your grandmother like a man possessed."By the time I finished hearing out my grandparents' story, I fell silent. I no longer blamed my grandfather for not knowing his heart, and I no longer blamed Grandma for being uncertain. It was just as Grandma Alora said. It was only because one of the two of them stopped obsessing and took a step back that they ended up living happily ever after. I could not help but wonder. What if Grandma simply refused to turn back at the e
Even then, I found it unbelievable. I ran to my dad's room and immediately asked, "Is Grandpa a pervert? I saw him hugging Grandma's foot just now. Does he have a foot fetish?""Your grandfather is warming your grandmother's feet. Your grandmother's body isn't in its best shape, and her hands and feet are always ice-cold. Your grandfather can't bear to see her like that. Just pretend you didn't see anything, and never mention it to him.""But why?""Because your grandfather will make you writ
My name was Luka Stewart. It was a weird name, right? Like ‘look! A stew.’My grandfather gave me my name. All my many years of experience as a kid told me that my grandfather was not a good guy.All else aside, just look at the name he gave me. He had a perfectly nice name himself, but he had to give me such a weird one.However, every time I protested about it to him, he always said that it was my dad's fault. If Dad had been a girl, that would have been his name instead. See, Grandpa was
On the twentieth day after the surgeryHe saw the person he had his heart set on.“Elior said you were at your wedding on the day I woke up.” He fell quiet again after his initial excitement. It felt as though there was a thorn in his heart. He wanted to pull the thorn out, but it hurt just to touch it.“Is Michael Luther… good to you?”“Yeah, pretty much.”There was pain in his eyes and he hurriedly lowered them, putting on a gracious act.“Congratulations. From now on, you’ll finally be
“Not too long ago, I woke up one morning and realized that I was trapped behind bars again. He had installed metal grilles over all the windows in the room.“In my eyes, those bars were no different from the ones in prison six years ago.“He tried everything to imprison me. He only finally let go when he’s sick and dying.“He said something about getting tired of this game and getting bored of me. I believed him.“He’s dying, so he lets go.“Is that supposed to show how generous and loving
“See? Master White agrees. Move aside and don’t stop me, the boss is in a lot of danger right now!” Dos’ expression was vicious. “I need to stop…”Halfway through his sentence, the three people outside heard some mortifying noises coming from inside the room.They were all experienced in the ways of life, so no matter how slow they might be, they still understood what those noises meant.Dos’ face instantly turned completely red.“Go on, kick the door down. Your boss is in danger,” Alora tea
After the second apple, there was the third... By the time he reached the fifth, he looked at the apple in his hand with a troubled expression. No matter how much he liked fruit, he still could not eat so many at once. Besides, he never liked apples to begin with.“Eat some more, or you won’t have the strength,” she said calmly. He was completely stumped. The strength? The strength for what?The wheels in his brain were still turning as he tried to process her words when the woman by his bed
At the hospital, the ward door opened without a sound. This time, Dos did not report the arrival in advance.When Elior arrived in a hurry, he immediately saw that woman.Before he said anything, Alora pulled him back out into the corridor. The door opened and closed again.The man on the bed lay on his side, fast asleep.No one knew what he was dreaming about, but the deep frown on his face showed that he did not have pleasant dreams.His hand rested on the covers, his wedding ring still a
"Don't worry, this time Sean Stewart won't disturb you again. He never will anymore. "Go and do what you do best, Jane Dunn. Run away!"With those words, Alora turned and left.She did not know what she was mad about. Perhaps she was not mad at all, just a little sorry about the whole state of affairs.It was almost as though she was the one who was not getting her happy ending. In her eyes, one of them had done wrong in the past and was now filled with regret, determined to turn over a n
