There were three people under one roof, Layne was sleeping, needless to say, the person knocking on the door was Russell.
Yasmine stood in front of the door and asked, "What happened?"
"I accidentally broke the glass cup, cut my hand, and bled a lot."
Yasmine thought to herself, it was just a scratch, why make such a fuss about it?
Forget it, after all, he is mentally unstable, let's be a little more tolerant of him.
"Wait for me, I will go out immediately."
Yasmine roughly dried her hair with a towel and then applied a face mask on her face.
She raised her hand to wipe away the mist on the mirror, looking at herself with an unrecognizable face. She gathered her bathrobe and opened the door.
Russell stood outside the door with his hands behind his back. The man had only a towel wrapped around his waist, exposing his well-defined chest to the air. The water droplets that hadn't dried on his body were absorbed into the towel. His
Why does Yasmine feel that this statement is a bit suggestive?Russell picked up three pieces of sushi with his fork and placed them on Yasmine's plate. "Want to try?"Yasmine felt a bit lost in her thoughts after she had that dream. She pulled her lip and said, "Okay."She picked up a piece of grilled meat flavor, tasted it, and her eyes instantly lit up."It was delicious."Layne quickly took a bite and said, "I thought you were going to say, 'Oh no, I got poisoned!"Yasmine scolded him, "So you were testing me with poison!"Layne smiled and said, "Grandma, how about we keep Uncle here? Not only can he play with Layne, but he also cooks delicious food.""No, uncle is going back tonight."Layne sighed, a hint of disappointment flickering in his eyes.Russell pursed his thin lips and asked, "Can I stay here for treatment?"Yasmine was eating sushi and said, "No, it's too inconvenient. It's not good if peopl
At that moment, Yasmine had a terrible thought, such as Russell falling ill and hurting Layne, and taking him somewhere.After all, Russell was not a normal person. How could she be so at ease leaving Layne in his care?Yasmine regretted a lot, and she turned around and left.When she was riding the elevator, her heart was pounding.As she reached the first floor, the elevator doors opened and she stepped out, only to see Russell carrying Layne walking towards the unit door.Layne hugged the man's neck and laughed happily.The moment Russell saw Yasmine, he did not recognize her."Layne!" Yasmine spoke up.Russell gave a warm smile and said, "Zoey, you're back!""Grandma! My uncle and I went to buy..."The little guy saw Yasmine walking towards him with pursed lips, and he knew she was not happy. He dared not say anything else.Yasmine walked up to the man with a serious expression on her face and asked, "W
Layne's little mouth was pouting, but the consequence of what he said was that Yasmine confiscated his tablet, and he could only read physical picture books.He nestled in the sofa, reading picture books, and sighed, "Women, they really are a dominant species!"Yasmine stood at the kitchen doorway, looking at the little person with a helpless smile.Russell finished washing the dishes and walked over to her. "Layne is right," he said. "Even though she's crazy, it doesn't matter. And no matter what age, everyone has the right to pursue love."Yasmine glanced at him and said, "Did you see the chairs in the living room?""Saw it.""Sit there properly, and I will give you a good treatment for your love brain.""..."Russell sat on the chair as Yasmine took out a silver needle wrapped in red cloth. She opened it and held a long and thin silver needle."I was going to give you an injection in your head. It wouldn't hurt much,
Russell trapped himself between Yasmine and the pool, his strong chest pressed tightly against her back, causing her body to tense up involuntarily."How could you be so careless?" The man's warm breath sprayed against her ear as he spoke, seeping into her eardrums.Yasmine felt her cheeks burning, and she wanted to pull her hand out, but she was tightly gripped by the man."Don't move, if a burn is not treated with cold water, it will leave a scar."Russell's chin was almost touching her shoulder, and Yasmine slightly turned her gaze to see the man's superior profile.Russell felt her gaze and slightly turned his head, their breaths becoming audible in close proximity.Yasmine felt that this man easily swayed people's hearts, and she turned around busily, her eyelashes trembling.After approximately five minutes, Russell closed the valve."Do you have burn ointment?""No.""I went to buy.""No need."
After seeing this news, Yasmine instantly furrowed her brow.She got up and walked quickly into the bedroom, turned on the computer, and started operating it with both hands on the keyboard.She wanted to delete this news. She must not let Derrick see it.Because she had previously asked Derrick about Russell, Russell was not at Serene Manor, but appeared here instead. If Derrick were to be alert and follow the clues, he would discover her.Yasmine quickly deleted the news and traced the IP address of the person who posted it, finding the publisher and retrieving suspicious contacts from his address book.After her investigation, it was discovered that the pharmacy owner was the whistleblower.She squinted her eyes and decided to teach this boss a lesson.She hacked into the pharmacy's system directly and discovered that the pharmacy had two sets of accounting records. This was the legendary Yin and Yang accounts.She pasted th
Troy glanced in the rearview mirror and saw the car following behind.He turned around and glanced at Russell, who gave him a look. Troy then pretended as if nothing had happened and continued driving.Yasmine did not see this scene, as she was busy arranging a wig for Layne.In the car behind, a man wearing a duckbill hat sat in the passenger seat and dialed a phone number."Boss, although the man was wearing a mask, he should be Russell because the driver was Troy. There was also a woman around fifty years old and a little girl with him, not Mrs. Maddox and Layne."Derrick sat on the large leather armchair. His eyes gleaming with a sinister light. "They had disguised themselves. You guys find an opportunity to sneak the child out, catch the thief before catching the king. I refuse to believe that Yasmine would disregard Layne.""Yes!""Did Russell really recover? Observe carefully, understand?""Understood!""Remember,
The amusement park was filled with laughter, even those who were in a bad mood would be infected and become happy.Russell lifted Layne onto a white unicorn, while he sat on a white wooden horse beside Layne.Yasmine took a look and found the maroon wooden horse in front of Russell to be the most beautiful. She swung her long legs over and sat on it.The music started playing, the carousel began to spin, and Yasmine turned around to look at Layne.The little one opened his hands and shouted, "Horse, run fast!"Yasmine had just wanted to say something when Russell took the little one's hand and said gently, "Be careful, or else you might fall."Layne laughed and said, "It's okay, I used to play like that too!""Who did you play with?""Layne suddenly looked at Yasmine and swallowed hard, 'I played with my grandmother."Russell sighed lightly, but his heart felt heavy.He had never taken Zoey to the amusement park b
Yasmine was stunned, watching the two people holding hands, her heart pounding.Layne covered her mouth and laughed, "Oh my, holding hands! So sweet!"Yasmine realized this at that moment, she wanted to pull her hand back, but she was tightly held by the man.Yasmine warned in a low voice, "I will not treat you anymore!"Russell reluctantly withdrew his hand, "Where is Layne's grandfather?"Grandfather?Her husband?Yasmine had no idea who Layne's father was, she really had no impression at all.She looked up and said, "Passed away."Russell was speechless.If he didn't want to scare her, he would have had Troy deliver the paternity test report to her right now.Layne was his son, and she was his wife.It's okay, he wouldn't let them leave again.Yasmine was afraid that Russell would ask again, so she said, "Let's go play with the spring dog."Russell picked up Layne from the ground and
Dalton nervously looked at the man, while Russell's gaze remained fixed on the scar on his jawbone.He aimed the phone screen at Dalton and said calmly, "Your scar has been there for over a decade, and although the scar is in the same place, it seems somewhat new."Dalton quickly took the phone and carefully examined it.He was too anxious at the time, and only saw people in the video who looked exactly like him, without even thinking about distinguishing the old and new scars.He furrowed his brow, "It seemed like this."He got up and said, "I'm going to find Nancy to explain this matter.""Wait." Russell called out to him, "There's a question that I find quite tricky."Dalton asked, "What?""Would Amiya take something from you tonight?"Dalton's body stiffened, and a chill ran down his spine.He turned around and rushed out of the office. After he entered the elevator, he looked at the down button and felt anxious.He had no recollection of anything from last night, so it cannot be
Divorce?Dalton's lips tightened into a straight line, and there was surprise and reluctance in his eyes."I was designed, Nancy."Dalton had thought about divorcing many times, after all, the reason he and Nancy got married in the first place was not pleasant.Little did he know that after that time together, he developed a strong attachment to her body.Afterwards, he grew to like her even more.Nancy filed for divorce, and his heart felt like it had been hollowed out.His Adam's apple bobbed as he said, "Nancy, can we not get divorced? I gave her medication, so she won't get pregnant, and I won't have any involvement with her in the future. Can we go back to how things were before? Is not getting divorced okay?"The man, who used to be arrogant and never gave her a second glance, is now humbly begging for her.Nancy would not continue her relationship with Craig, and she did not want to be caught between Dalton and Amiya. She only wanted to give birth to the child.She thought she
Nancy pursed her lips tightly, "You made Dalton answer the phone."Amiya laughed and said, "He used all his strength on me, and now he's already fallen asleep from exhaustion."Nancy's fingers, clutching her phone, gradually tightened. "Amiya, you sent Dalton for this, didn't you? I guess Dalton definitely wasn't willing, it was you who planned it. Have you ever thought about how he will treat you after he wakes up?""I didn't!" Amiya shouted, "Dalton and I were like a raging fire, and after experiencing me, he said you lying in bed was as lifeless as a corpse, incredibly boring.""Amiya, you sent me the address, I was going to find Dalton."Amiya chuckled and said, "It was like a dream!"The phone call was disconnected, and Nancy knew that Amiya had used some means to make Dalton stay.She bit her lower lip and glanced at the time, it was already late at night.She wanted to call Zoey, but the timing was simply not right.So, she prepared to call Dalton's assistant to ask for help in
Nancy returned to the gallery feeling restless, as she remembered Dalton saying he would come to pick her up in the evening.She had already rejected him several times, and if she didn't come up with a suitable reason soon, he would definitely start to suspect.So she called Zoey and asked her to help with opening a report form.Zoey agreed immediately and in the afternoon, she went to the gynecologist and got a report form to deliver to the art gallery.After they met, Zoey and Nancy talked a lot and understood Nancy's concerns."If Dalton really no longer loved Amiya, would you marry him?"Nancy was drinking juice and said, "These days, I felt that Dalton was treating me well, but I didn't know if it was physical dependence or something else."Zoey noticed her lack of confidence. "Nancy, you are beautiful, have a great figure, and are talented. There is no reason for Dalton not to like you. In the past, Dalton may have been distant towards you because he hadn't accepted you emotiona
The next day, Randall invited everyone to go mountain climbing.Nancy stayed in the hotel room due to feeling unwell.Dalton wanted to accompany her, but she said she stayed because she wanted to sleep. If he also stayed, she wouldn't be able to sleep.Dalton chased her away, and she lay on the tatami mat.In a short while, there came a knocking sound at the door of the guest room.She put on her slippers and went to open the door. The room service staff was holding a tray with a glass pitcher on it, filled with a deep red liquid."Mrs. Jenkins, this was cooked for you by Mr. Murillo in the kitchen."Nancy was about to take the tray, but the staff quickly said, "Let me bring it in for you, I dare not trouble you to carry it yourself.""Thank you," Nancy said, turning to the side.The service staff brought it in and placed it on the table, then left.Nancy looked at the pot of sugar water, tightly pursing her lips.Back in high school, whenever she had her period, Craig would bring thi
Nancy concealed the strange look in her eyes and made an excuse to get up and leave for the restroom.Dalton did not notice anything unusual, and he started chatting with Nancy.The little girl was very talkative, "Uncle, you and my dad looked a bit alike! Especially in the eyes."Dalton clicked his tongue and said, "Wasn't I more handsome than your dad?"Nancy chuckled, "You all are handsome, but in my eyes, Dad was the most handsome. In Nancy's eyes, you were the most handsome."Dalton chuckled, "You really know how to not offend anyone, you little trickster!"Nacy had a big smile on her face and said, "I was telling the truth, you know!"Over here, Nancy washed her face in the bathroom.Looking at herself in the mirror, with red eyes, she was on the verge of losing control in front of everyone."Do you need any help?"The man's voice came from the doorway, and Nancy's hands curled up on the sink.She slo
Nancy clenched her fists upon hearing the words, she didn't expect to reunite with Craig, who had already gotten married and had children.Now she faced the other's wife and daughter, feeling heartbroken and bitter.Zoey held her hand and said, "It's something we had to face sooner or later. Isn't it the most important thing that you are certain he is still alive?""Yes, I should be content," Nancy wiped away her tears, "I will go downstairs and open the door for them."Zoey held her shoulder and said, "I'll go, it's fine. Nancy, I understand you, but I still hope that you can consider your situation with Dalton. You should make sure of Dalton's feelings before saying anything."Nancy nodded and said, "Okay, I will consider it."Zoey nodded and got up to open the door.A gentle smile, dressed in casual clothes, a woman was holding a little girl with a mushroom-shaped hairstyle standing there."Hello, I am Susie, Randall's wife.
Dalton comforted Nancy, "Otherwise, shall we go back first?""No!" Nancy felt that her reaction was too abnormal. She pursed her lips and said, "No need, I'm fine now, I was just a little scared earlier. Don't spoil Zoey and their excitement."Dalton wiped her tears with his hand and said, "Even pearls are falling, and you say it's nothing."Nancy nodded, "Russell was planning to collaborate with Mr. Murillo, right? Don't let my actions make everyone unhappy."Dalton scratched her petite, rosy nose and said, "It seems like she wasn't scared silly, and now she even knows how to weigh the pros and cons."Nancy nodded and then started to hiccup.She had a habit, which was that after crying a lot, she would start hiccuping.Dalton thought she was adorable, and he hugged her and gently patted her back, "Shall I pour you some water?""Okay."Dalton handed her a glass of water, and Nancy took a few sips before the hiccup finall
Dalton kissed her cheek, tracing along her fair neck to her straight shoulders, one hand caressing the soft flesh at her waist, while the other supported her fullness.Nancy held the man's hand and said, "Don't make a fuss, everyone has left, and it's just the two of us now."Dalton chuckled, "Shy? Everyone was married, and it was well known, what's there to be shy about?""No, we, we should still go out." Nancy's cheeks turned red, feeling quite embarrassed, after all, they still had to meet people later.Dalton turned the person around and his gaze fell on her flesh-colored lace cup, which was full and overflowing, very enticing.He bowed his head and Nancy placed both hands on the man's shoulders, "D-Dalton..."Dalton stood up and looked at her, licking his lips sensually."Come back and eat later in the evening."Nancy knew that the man had let her go, so she quickly turned around to change her clothes.Dalton watche
