The man yawned and asked very cleverly, "If Sean is obedient, will Janey still want Sean?"The woman's complexion suddenly stiffened... She could not answer a question asked by the child-like Sean Stewart.She said stiffly, "Go to sleep. If you dare say one more word, I’ll throw you out."The man really stopped talking.Not long after, there was a deep breathing sound coming from the side of the bed. The woman slowly turned around and stared at the face of the man beside her that was exposed
The first ray of sunlight in the morning spilled into the bedroom, and the mottled spots of light fell on the white sheets of the bed. Several strands of bright light sprinkled on the woman's face.Even though she was exhausted from catching a late-night flight, her insomnia had made her toss for the first half of the night. She only fell asleep when it was very, very late. When dawn broke, she did not want to wake up. She decided to sleep in today, which was rare.Her face felt itchy. She str
Ray asked cautiously. It was rare for Jane to get so angry that she even directly addressed the person as ‘bastard’. It could be guessed that the ‘bastard’ really caused big trouble this time, which resulted in this woman’s anger."Ahem… How did that ‘bastard’ provoke you?" Ray could only ask awkwardly again after the woman did not respond for a long time.It was okay if he did not ask. After this question, Jane's whole body froze. Her small face was green and white, colorful like a color pale
Ignoring the person’s disappointed expression, Jane simply cleaned up, took her bag, and left.She was busy in the office for the entire day. Vivienne came to the office early in the day to take the agreement with Damon. At noon, Vivienne discovered that the woman was still busy in the office.She thought that the collaboration with Damon was causing the woman to be extremely focused and busy at work. Vivienne then heard from the secretary that Jane had asked the secretaries to bring all the d
She did not want to hurt Vivienne, but she did not want to hear Vivienne mention this person’s name again.She only… wanted Vivienne to shut up. She wanted some quiet. She wanted a pure environment.“It’s Sean Stewart… Right…”Jane suddenly lowered her shoulder. Her hands held on to Vivienne’s sleeve as she lowered her head depressingly. She lowered her voice and yelled silently, “Vivienne, can you be quiet… Please?”Although it was a low yell, the request could not be covered.Vivienne was
At night, the woman could not sleep well. Sometime later, raindrops starting falling down against the windowpane. She tossed and turned repeatedly, trying several times to force herself to sleep.She tossed and turned many times on the bed. After an hour, she was still awake.She pulled off the quilt on her body, stepped on the ground barefoot, and paced irritably in front of the window.She put on her dressing gown and walked to the living room. She turned on the TV, and the children's progr
As time passed bit by bit, those light eyes opened unpredictably. She stepped on the floor barefoot. She walked to the window. When she passed by the big bed, she put aside the phone in her palm. The phone rolled twice in the air, fell on the mattress, and laid quietly there.The screen of the phone was still on. The screen showed ‘Ray Sierra’, and it rang for three seconds.When she opened the window, the wind and rain no longer hit the window glass. The messy raindrops swept into the house a
This afternoon, Vivienne knocked on her office door. The door opened, and an acquaintance was brought in."Mr. Luther, It’s been a long time since we last met.”When Michael Luther arrived, Jane was still thinking about the collaboration between the two parties. Since they had entered the second stage, she should go to the other party’s subsidiary company again.Unexpectedly, Michael Luther brought a letter with him.Looking at the envelope dyed with a light blue ink design, she saw that the
"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
