Next to them, Ginnie listened and made speculations about the size of Dunn Group's assets as well as the benefits.Jane rubbed her eyebrows and said, "It's fine." So saying, she pushed the door open and got out of the car. These reports were in urgent need. Otherwise, she would not have put up with the motion sickness by reading these reports in the car.They went to the main building of the hospital and collected samples. Time ticked by slowly. When the samples had been collected, the medical
It was also because of his words that Jane almost never missed a call from him.Almost. Yes, almost.There was this one time that her phone had run out of battery. To her surprise, that person stood in front of her house looking travel-worn at three in the morning.She was taken aback the moment the door opened.The man stood at the door, then pulled her into his arms without a word.The moment she was pulled into his arms, she could feel his fast-beating heart even with the clothes between
She said, "I'm very happy. I don't love that person anymore. That person has nothing to do with me. I'm very happy. I am dying of happiness."She grinned. It was extremely difficult to tug her mouth into a smile. She curved her mouth upward in a desperate attempt, but why did the corners of her mouth just feel so heavy? It felt as though a weight weighing a thousand catty was pulling them down."Look, look, Vivienne. Look, I’m smiling. I'm smiling. I'm happy. I'm really happy."Vivienne could
S City’s most flourishing area. In the most high-end shopping malls with the most expensive brand, there was a woman. She said, "I’m here to pick out a dress."Brand attendants were great at judging people. In the eyes of discerning people, this woman who had staggered her way in was clearly a lame. The lame woman, however, insisted on straightening her waist, making her look even more awkward.At a glance, she was not wearing any branded items on her body. Everything she used or wore were sim
"Yes, Ma'am.""Then it’s fine."Vivienne looked at Jane in surprise. She knew that Jane would never expose her back to anyone. It was not perfect.The designer's hands were still steady as always even after seeing the hideous scar on her waist."You are really brave," the foreign designer praised her once everything was done. He gave Jane a gentlemanly hug and said, "I’m sorry. God will bless him in heaven."After hearing those words, the salesgirl had a rude awakening as she stared at Jane
The moment the door opened, the weariness on Jane's face was wiped clean. What took place on her face was a bright and dazzling smile instead.Elior was leaning against the window. He turned his head sideways when the door opened. What he saw was Jane flashing an extremely dazzling smile. He was taken aback. Fury surged through him. The next moment, however, the anger in his heart dissipated."Come in." He sighed in his heart. She definitely did not know that at first glance, the smile on her face might look brilliant, but at second glance, it looked hesitant. At third glance, there was excruciating pain.The woman was still standing by the door, rooted to the ground.Elior turned around and walked toward her. He stretched out his long arms suddenly and caught her off guard by pulling her inside. "Stop smiling. He won’t see it."The woman's smile hung stiffly on her face."Shot in the heart. Less than two centimeters away from his heart.“After the incident, he was sent to the h
Elior and Ray did not know what Jane was feeling the entire time she was alone.When the door was opened once again, Sean was still being rescued.There were hurried footsteps in the corridor. Everyone was on edge.It was as if Jane had been forgotten. Everyone was focusing on the man who was being rescued.No one was talking. The doctor finally announced that the crisis had been averted after a long time.However, this was not the end. In the five days and five nights that she stayed with him, this near-death crisis kept shrouding over his head.Five days and five nights. 11 times.She had counted. Every rescue would leave a number in her heart.She did not know why she did this.She did not know whether she had the energy to feel resentful toward him in her heart.She could not even understand herself, so how could she understand Sean?In that early morning, they had hope.She was by his bed. She was used to staring at his pale and sunken face for the entire night. She wo
“Sean, why are you…” Elior reacted immediately. He reached out his hand to the man on the bed.“Don’t touch me!” The man on the bed backed away. Ray approached him. He was scared to break open his wounds.“Sean, don’t move! Watch out for your wounds.”This time, the man was reacting even more wildly. He even waved his hand that was connected to the IV drop to Ray who approached him.“Sean, what’s wrong? It’s me! Me! Ray!”Elior grabbed Ray who was trying to approach Sean. “Calm down. Something’s wrong with Sean.”“Who are you? Get out! Out!” He was talking like a child. He looked at the people around his bed in fear and horror. Suddenly, when he laid eyes on the only woman in the room, he stopped.In the next second, he did not care about all the tubes on him. He pounced into Jane’s arms in front of everyone and said in an extremely aggrieved voice, “Big Sister, I’m scared.”Jane was frozen. She was extremely tense when she lowered her head and looked at the man who was asking
"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
