Russell's eyes were deep and dangerous as he stared at the man. "Who sent you?"
The gaze was filled with a strong sense of danger, making the man's scalp tingle. He had no doubt that if he didn't tell the truth, Russell would kill him in the cruelest way possible.
He confessed, "Derrick! Maddox is your Maddox, Derrick."
Derrick?
Russell had never heard this name before, but the surname Maddox was somewhat intriguing.
He looked at the other four people and said, "Is that right?"
The other four people also nodded repeatedly in agreement.
Russell stood up and turned around to look at the two people still talking on the sofa, "I'm leaving, Derrick."
Troy furrowed his brows, "This name sounds familiar to me. I think I've heard it somewhere before."
Braeden rubbed his chin, "I feel like I've heard this name somewhere before."
Russell took off his white gloves and said, "The rest is up to you guys, I'm going back first."
The next morning.Yasmine woke up and realized that Layne was not by her side.She heard the laughter of children outside the window, so she got out of bed and went to the window.Russell was watering the roses with Layne.Layne held the water hose with both hands, while Russell bent down and held his little hand to help him control the direction. They watched as the water splashed around, and Layne laughed heartily.Yasmine's lips curled slightly, and this scene was quite heartwarming.But the smile on her face gradually disappeared, none of these belonged to her, what was she expecting and longing for?She wanted to find out as soon as possible if the Huffman family's tragedy was related to Russell.After she finished washing up, she reapplied her previous makeup and went outside the villa to call Layne back.Children are easily dependent on and attached to people, so she wanted to keep Layne away from Russell in order
Yasmine was initially startled, and then she began to struggle, but it was in vain.Russell was very skilled at using tricks to immobilize her."What did you want to do?"Russell smiled in his eyes and said, "I just wanted to ask you why you didn't take my pulse before giving me an injection."Yasmine did indeed forget about this matter, "It was my mistake, I apologize.""Do you have something on your mind?"Yasmine pursed her lips and denied, "No!""Are you still reminiscing about last night?" Russell had been thinking about keeping his distance from her after last night, but his body and mind couldn't help but want to get closer.He couldn't keep his distance!"I didn't!" Yasmine's voice involuntarily raised a few decibels.Russell saw that she was getting a little impatient, so he said, "Don't be angry, I let go."He slowly let go, and Yasmine pricked the needle.The needle was just about to stop
Yasmine glanced sideways and caught sight of Russell rushing towards her, momentarily stunned.She stood up from her seat and said, "How did you come?"When Russell passed by her, he raised his hand and gave the woman's shoulder a squeeze, "There won't be any problem."She said to the nurse, "I have the same blood type as my child, draw mine."The nurse asked, "Are you the child's father?"Yasmine exclaimed!The nurse looked surprised when she saw Yasmine and asked, "Is he the father of the child?"Yasmine was about to say no when she heard Russell say very confidently, "Yes!"The nurse pointed at Yasmine and asked, "And what about her?"Russell remained calm and composed as he uttered, "My mother-in-law has some opinions about me because I had an argument with her daughter."Yasmine was speechless.Russell raised an eyebrow and said, "Right, Mom? Layne needed a blood transfusion now, saving the child is th
Russell couldn't explain it this time, he raised his hand and pressed his forehead.To avoid suspicion, Troy directly transferred to Dalton's hospital when he arrived.When Dalton entered the ward and saw Layne, his heart was deeply shaken.This child looks exactly like Zoey, identical in every way.No wonder Russell recognized this ghostly-looking Zoey at first sight.The little one blinked his big eyes and sucked on a lollipop, "Uncle, you looked so handsome!"Dalton approached and asked Russell, "Is this your son?"Russell nodded and asked, "Are you handsome?"Yasmine was speechless."Looking handsome!" Dalton wanted to say, the male version of Zoey looks really good, even better than Russell, but he remembered Russell's advice not to mention Zoey's name in front of Yasmine. He wanted her to remember on her own, so he held back the rest of his words.He raised his hand and rubbed the little guy's head, "Does it
"What's going on with you, with all of you?" Leanna exclaimed in surprise.Russell encountered Yasmine and Layne, and then Yasmine briefly recounted the incident of her treating him."How did you guys meet?"Leanna recounted the incident of running into Yasmine at the airport and supermarket, saying, "What a small world it is, our new acquaintances turned out to be the same person!"Russell felt that it was fate that allowed Zoey to find her way home.The truth was gradually revealed, becoming clearer bit by bit.He believed that Zoey would remember.Leanna thought for a moment, "So, earlier I saw news about you having a son online, and that child is Layne, right?"Russell nodded lightly.Leanna frowned, "Russell, I know Layne looks a lot like Zoey, but you shouldn't have mistaken Layne for your own child.""I knew."Leanna pursed her lips and asked, "Yasmine's voice sounds a lot like Zoey's, so have you ever seen what she really looks like?""Um.""Does she look like Zoey?" Leanna as
Yasmine knew that giving this man even a little smile would make him radiant!After giving him a disdainful look, she got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up. While looking in the mirror, she noticed that her lips were slightly swollen and red.She frowned slightly, would Russell have kissed her while she was asleep?It seems that she had to be cautious of him.After washing up, she came out and saw that Layne had already woken up, and was affectionately hugging Russell's neck.The little one just said "dad" and then saw Yasmine, instantly closing his little mouth.He shrank in the man's arms, afraid to look at Yasmine, feeling very guilty.After all, yesterday he had already promised Yasmine that he would not shout "Dad" anymore.Yasmine walked up to the two of them and extended her hand, "Layne, I will take you to freshen up."Layne shook his head, "Layne wants uncle to carry him to pee, we are both boys."Yasmine was surprised that the little one actually emphasized gend
There is nothing wrong with this sentence, but the man's tone of speech was too ambiguous.Yasmine cleared her throat and said, "Speak properly."Russell stood up and walked towards her, "How did I not speak properly? It was clearly you who was thinking about unnecessary things.""I didn't want to! Go to your room!" Yasmine turned around and walked towards the door.Russell lightly clicked his tongue, "So impatient."Yasmine. “..."Yasmine entered Russell's room and opened the medicine cabinet. She took out cotton swabs and disinfectant solution, and began to disinfect the man."Um, ah..."Yasmine's face turned red suddenly, "Don't say a word!"Russell chuckled and said, "Well, but why are you blushing?""I didn't at all!" Yasmine threw the cotton swab into the trash can, tidied up the medicine box, and prepared to leave."I hadn't been given an injection yet!"Yasmine muttered, "So proactive in finding Zha!""How you treat me is fine with me," Russell's eyes were deep, "I don't resis
Yasmine entered the bathroom and only then realized that her hair was dry, indicating that Russell had blow-dried it.Russell was undoubtedly considerate, but it was all based on her being like Zoey.At first, it was because the voice was similar and the breath on her body was similar, but later, after seeing her true face, it felt even more similar.Like doesn't mean it is, she wasn't sure if she was Zoey, so she had to verify.She put on makeup and changed into a loose light gray casual suit and sneakers. Middle-aged and elderly women all like this kind of outfit.After leaving the villa, Russell was wiping the tomatoes for Layne. After taking them, Layne took a bite."Sour and sweet, it's so delicious!" Layne turned to look at Brent. "The vegetables you grew are really delicious, I want to eat them for a lifetime!"Russell laughed and said, "When your mother married me, you would be able to eat for a lifetime.""Okay," Layne squinted his eyes as if they were sour, "Oh my, are we go
Nancy trembled with her eyelashes, feeling the scorching breath of the man.Her hands trembled as she tightly grasped the man's shirt, a piercing pain shot through her, and she felt like her whole being was about to be torn apart."Ouch!"The painful sound of a woman came, and Dalton also felt that barrier.So that night, nothing happened between them, and now it is the woman's first time.Dalton looked at the tears in the corner of Nancy's eyes, his Adam's apple rolled, "Be good, I'll be gentle."He was clear-headed and knew that they were just a business alliance, perhaps one day they would get divorced, and he should stop.But at that moment, he simply didn't want to stop, and this feeling was very peculiar.He was a medical student and had performed many dissections and surgeries. The human body held no fascination for him.Even the most beautiful bodies were just organs to him in the past.Before, he was attr
The air froze at that moment.Nancy looked at this scene in shock, Dalton's face covered in cream.Luckily, when Nyasia was cutting the cake, the candles and the cake stand fell to the ground, otherwise Dalton would have definitely gotten hurt.Nyasia was not from a wealthy family, so how could she afford to compensate Dalton?Nancy pulled Nyasia behind her and said, "Sorry, Dalton, Nyasia didn't mean to. Don't be angry."Nyasia rolled up her sleeves and said, "Scumbag men and cheap women should be taught a lesson!"Nancy looked at Mario and said, "Mario, you take Nyasia and go first."Mario watched as Dalton raised his hand to wipe the cream smeared on his face, knowing that not taking Nyasia away would only make things worse.He grabbed the person around the waist and carried them into the elevator. Before the elevator doors closed, he saw Nancy going to wipe Dalton's face.Nancy was pushed away by Amiya. "Dalton, are
Dalton?Nancy hesitated for a moment, looked inside, and saw Dalton sitting on the couch, lazily leaning against the backrest, drinking a glass of wine by himself.She was afraid that the people inside would see her, so she immediately hid to the side of the door.Dalton's voice came, neither loud nor soft, with a casual tone, "The wedding at home is being prepared."Elliott Moody approached him and said, "Amiya is not leaving this time, she's staying in the country. She's now a famous wedding dress designer! She left in the first place for her dreams, so why do you think she's back now? Surely it's for you! Don't you want her anymore?"Nancy spoke softly, her body stiffened, and her fingers also closed together.She waited for the man's answer, but the man remained silent.Footsteps were heard, and she immediately turned and left.Standing on the terrace, facing the cool breeze, Nancy, who was dressed lightly, felt even colder
At the toast session, Carsen accompanied Carolyn, who had changed into an evening gown, to go table by table to propose toasts.Carsen drank red wine, while Carolyn drank juice.Zoey raised an eyebrow at Russell and said, "Carolyn has arrived, are you ready?"Russell had long noticed that Carolyn was eager to come to this table to propose a toast. He chuckled lightly, "Of course."In no time, Carsen and Carolyn came over. They first toasted the elders and then started toasting in order of seniority.First, it was Royce and Mya, Brodie and Joselyn, Madeleine and Kristian, and then it was Zoey and Russell.Carsen looked at Russell and said, "Russell, thank you for taking care of Carolyn all these years. Come, Carolyn, let's have a drink with Russell."Zoey smiled and said, "Wishing Uncle Carsen and Aunt Carolyn a hundred years of happiness!"Russell nodded and raised his glass, "Cheers to Uncle Carsen and Aunt Carolyn's happy mar
Carsen and Carolyn's wedding took place the next day, and the whole Woodmerrow knew that the Maddox family and the Keller family were getting married again.Everyone who was anyone in Lochcliff was invited, including the big shots in the medical field. Some people joked that this wedding was starting to resemble a medical conference.However, this time everyone was not very concerned about the grandeur of the wedding, but rather particularly concerned about the issue of the names used between Russell, Zoey, Carsen, and Carolyn.After all, it was a wedding, so there wasn't that much tension in the air, and that's when this kind of sound started to appear among the guests.Zoey nudged Russell's arm with her elbow, "What should we do? You're going to call Carolyn 'Sister-in-law' in a little while, are you nervous?"Russell's lips curved slightly, "I dared to ask, would she dare to agree?"Zoey stifled a laugh, "This is hard to say, Carolyn has
Viviana's surgery was very successful, and the little girl was finally going to recover after undergoing two major surgeries.After waking up from the surgery, her first question was, "Where is my father? Is he okay?"The man who had been hiding behind Mya suddenly couldn't hold back his tears, as he had wanted to surprise Viviana.Royce walked out, holding a bouquet of red roses. The man in his thirties had tears streaming down his face as he choked out, "I'm here, Dad is doing well."Viviana revealed a row of sparkling white little teeth, "Daddy, even when he cries, he still looks so handsome!"Royce squatted in front of the hospital bed, holding the little girl's small and soft hand, and couldn't help but laugh and cry, "So, Daddy has gotten old, huh?"Viviana laughed and said, "Dad used to be a handsome guy when he was younger."Royce smiled and said, "Thank you for your fair assessment of me."Viviana laughed and said, "Da
Royce's ward was unattended, and the cleaner stood at the small window, looking inside. She saw a man sleeping soundly, and she gently pushed open the door to the ward.She tiptoed to the bedside and took out a handkerchief from her jacket pocket, quickly covering the man's mouth and nose.She didn't expect it to go so smoothly, so she immediately went to the cleaning room and brought the wheelchair.With great effort, she helped Royce onto the wheelchair and placed a duckbill hat on his head before leaving.After a series of twists and turns, she took the person out of the hospital and moved them onto a black car, driving away.She couldn't contain her excitement, it was just too smooth, it seemed like the heavens were helping her.After passing a red light, she stopped and turned around to look back, only to find Royce fast asleep.She wanted to wait until she arrived at the place, and she was determined to win him over and make him
After Royce got on the car with Mya, clusters of fireworks bloomed in the sky.He opened the skylight, and Mya looked up. The fireworks were colorful and accompanied her all the way.Fireworks bloomed all the way from the villa to City Hall, a distance of twenty-five kilometers.The whole city was immersed in love, and pedestrians on the street couldn't help but admire.I don't know whose girlfriend, fiancée, or wife is so lucky to receive such love and pampering.Mya covered her mouth, afraid that her crying might ruin the beauty of the fireworks.The car stopped in front of City Hall, and Royce unbuckled his seatbelt and leaned over to embrace the person.Mya sobbed, "Royce.""I was there, I have always been there.""Thank you.""Silly little fool, don't say thank you to me anymore."Mya shook her head and withdrew from the man's embrace, saying earnestly, "I want to say thank you, thank you for al
Viviana Keller?The little girl smiled, her eyes curved, "Viviana Keller sounds better than Viviana Hayes! I like it!"Royce lifted her up, slightly crouched, and matched Mya's height, with both of them sandwiching Viviana in between, each kissing her cheeks.Viviana laughed happily, her little hands wrapped around the necks of the two people, and she shouted loudly, "I had a dad! I had a name! I was the happiest child in the world!"Mya shed tears, Viviana went through so many hardships, but she could still smile at life.The happiness that children wanted was very simple. It could be an inexpensive toy, a lollipop, and the love of their parents.Not far away, Zoey looked up, trying to hold back her tears.Russell grabbed her waist and asked in a low voice, "Were you moved?""No." Zoey didn't want to be laughed at by the man, so she immediately denied it.Russell nodded and said, "I understood.""What do you unde
