Zoey pondered, "Based on Dalton's account, I think Carsen was jealous. And the caregiver said that Carsen processed the discharge procedures after Danna's visit. Isn't this just sulking and avoiding Danna?"Russell smirked, "Dalton would still go to explore tomorrow, we just have to wait."Zoey nodded lightly in agreement.Russell leaned back against the chair back, his slender fingers tugging at his tie. "Zoey, were you feeling better today?"Zoey naturally understood the man's meaning, "When Carsen and Carolyn got together, that's when I felt good."Russell burst into laughter, "So you mean if these two people are tied together, I would have to walk twenty yards slowly?"Zoey asked, "What does it mean?""I couldn't get on the highway!"Zoey burst into laughter, "Russell, ever since I came back, I've noticed that your mind has been filled with yellow rubbish every day! Can't you think of something else?"Russell searched through his mind and said, "It seems like I can't, I have enoug
All of Russell's hostility disappeared in an instant when he saw Zoey."Zoey, how did you come here?" his voice was gentle, and he immediately stood up, wanting to walk over.Zoey waved her hand and said, "You sit down."Russell sat down when he saw Zoey give him a signal.Zoey smirked, "I heard you have some trash to clean up here, so today I reluctantly transform into a janitor to clean up for you."Russell's thin lips lifted, as he propped his elbows on the table, crossing his hands under his chin, looking as if he was enjoying the show."It was indeed quite dirty, and after cleaning it up, it needed to be disinfected."Zoey gestured an OK sign and said, "It wouldn't hurt to redecorate."After hearing these words, Violet cried even more miserably, and her makeup on her face became a mess.Zoey pretended to clean her ears, "How annoying! So let's all share the blessings and difficulties together!"She turned back and looked at Emilia, "Find a chair to prop against the office door, s
When Zoey and Russell walked out, the police also arrived.The parties involved as well as the eyewitnesses all went to the police station.The police asked Zoey for the evidence she was supposed to provide. Zoey said that everyone would see it in a while.At first, everyone did not understand the meaning of this sentence until they were sitting in the police car on their way to the police station and saw a scene directed by Violet playing in all the malls and shops along the way. Instantly, they understood.In the surveillance footage, Violet walked into the CEO's office. She wanted to go around the desk to find Russell, but she was reprimanded by a man.Russell coldly stared at her, then picked up his phone and sent a message.Violet stood beside the visitor's chair, crying and sobbing as she said, "Mr. Russell, I thought I was doing a good job as a secretary, so why do I keep getting deductions? Now I have been deducted into negative numbers. Sob sob sob, what should I do? Mr. Russ
The apartment door was kicked open, Russell dropped the bag in his hand on the ground, and pinned Zoey against the wall.Zoey looked at the man's reddened eyes and knew that she had been neglecting him for the past couple of days.She willingly wrapped her arms around the man's neck, tiptoed, and kissed his firm Adam's apple."Did you choose the white one to wear?"Zoey nodded and said, "Then wait for me."Russell kissed her hard and handed her the bag containing white underwear.Zoey took it and went into the bedroom, she started changing.Before he had a chance to put it on, Russell walked in.Zoey glanced back at him and said, "I haven't put it on yet!"Russell embraced her from behind and gently kissed her earlobe, slowly trailing down her snow-white neck to her straight shoulders."Zoey, it was too late."Until late at night, Zoey lay on the bed, with disheveled hair sticking to her slender back, and she didn't even bother to move her fingers.She looked at the strong silhouette
Upon hearing this, Carsen pursed his lips and said, "So, Angelo also liked Carolyn."Dalton chuckled playfully, "Also? What does this word mean?"Carsen was not secretive about it, "I liked Carolyn, the kind of liking that is with all my heart."Dalton laughed and said, "If you were willing to risk your life to love someone, why not pursue them?"Because she said she liked someone, she cried for that man. Angelo said he was Carolyn's boyfriend, so I automatically assumed that person was him. But if it wasn't Angelo, then who could it be?Dalton thought that Carsen was a scatterbrain, although he was a genius in academics, he was a fool in matters of emotions.He knew about Carolyn's liking for Carsen because Russell spilled the beans to him in order to get him to gather military intelligence.He just didn't intend to tell Carsen about this matter, after all Carolyn had liked Carsen for so many years.Since Carsen is interested in her, let him pursue Carolyn properly, that's only fair.
After Dalton left, Carsen walked into the bathroom and practiced in front of the mirror repeatedly."Carolyn, I have something I want to tell you. Actually, I had already fallen for you without realizing it, but I am introverted, so I didn't realize it in time.""I didn't realize I was jealous until Angelo said he was your boyfriend, and I was insanely jealous.""Carolyn, will you give me a chance, please? I didn't want to just be your uncle Carsen, I wanted to be your boyfriend.""I not only want to be your boyfriend, but I want to be your man, your support.""Don't like that scumbag anymore, he was never worth your affection. The person who truly likes you would never make you sad or shed tears.""I had no experience in dating, so I didn't know how to woo a girl, but I could learn.""If you couldn't accept me transitioning from your uncle Carsen to a boyfriend all at once, we can start by being ordinary friends first. Don't reject my closeness and give me a chance to show you the ef
Carolyn gripped the straps of her backpack with both hands, a thin layer of sweat forming on her forehead. Her cheeks flushed pink, and her lips curved into a slight smile. "I'll tell you when I reach the top," she said.Ariella laughed and said, "I think I asked a stupid question. You liked him for so many years, how could you just give up like that?"Carolyn smiled and said, "Nothing is impossible." After saying that, she continued climbing the stone steps.Ariella shrugged; she didn't believe it at all!Ten minutes later, Carolyn and Ariella arrived at the top of the mountain.There were many people on the mountaintop, all there to see the night view of Greycoast.The two of them found a relatively secluded place, set down their backpacks.The night breeze wafted, blowing away the thin sweat on the two people's bodies.Carolyn gazed at the distant lights of the city and sighed, "For so many years, my heart and eyes were filled with Carsen, never knowing how beautiful the world is.
Carolyn and Ariella walked up to Angelo, and Angelo took the initiative to help Carolyn carry her luggage.Carolyn slid the suitcase behind her and said indifferently, "I can handle it myself."Angelo chuckled, "Why be so polite? Let me help you!""You really don't have to, Angelo," Carolyn said. "The driver at home is waiting for me over there!"Looking in the direction pointed by Carolyn's finger, a middle-aged man ran over and respectfully greeted, "Ms. Carolyn."Carolyn nodded slightly and handed over her and Ariella's luggage.After the driver left, Carolyn looked at Angelo and said, "Let's find a place to eat, shall we?"Angelo felt that Carolyn was a little off, a sense of unease lingering in his heart. He forced a smile at the corner of his lips and said, "Sure!"The three of them arrived at a restaurant near the airport. Ariella did not sit at the same table with the other two, but instead sat at a nearby table not far from them.She ordered a cup of coffee, her gaze occasion
The gift box was a two-meter tall rose red square, with a super beautiful bow tied on top, which instantly caught people's attention.The waiter pushed the cart in front of her and bowed respectfully, "Dear Ms. Keller, this gift is prepared for you by Mr. Russell. He said that the child's birthday is also your day of suffering, so while celebrating the child's birthday, he cannot forget the pain you have endured as a wife. He prepared this gift hoping that you will like it."Zoey was very curious about what the gift would be. But where did Russell go?Without giving her much thought, Madeleine nudged her with her elbow, "Quickly open it and take a look."Leanna also urged, "I am curious to see what Russell would give you."Zoey hadn't heard the three words 'Russell' for a while, wondering if Russell would have a gloomy expression when he heard them again.Under the gaze of the crowd, Zoey stepped forward and gently untied the ribbon.The waiter indicated that there was a button on the
Zoey looked at the direction the car was heading and realized it wasn't towards the Keller's manor. She asked Russell, "Aren't we going home?"Russell glanced in the rearview mirror, a deep smile playing at the corners of his lips. "I will take you to a mysterious place," he said.Layne's eyes widened as he knelt on his seat and looked back. Leanna's car was following behind. He turned around and asked, "Dad, did Evelin and the others also go?""Yes," Russell replied with a warm smile.Layne exclaimed, "I was so excited!"Zoey looked at Madeleine and said, "You knew all along?"Madeleine shrugged helplessly and said, "I can't deny that I knew, your man asked us to keep it a secret, he said he wanted to surprise you. Zoey, you can't blame me!""Us?" Zoey chuckled, "So I was the only one kept in the dark? You all knew? Even Leanna knew?"Madeleine nodded and then blinked her eyes, "Blame Russell if you must!"Zoey looked at the handsome profile of the man and said, "Just me, I didn't kn
Layne's emotional knot was finally resolved under Zoey's various explanations.Madeleine breathed a sigh of relief, as she felt that if Layne were to prevent Zoey and Russell from having a second child because of her words, she would be truly guilty.After all, both the Maddox family and the Keller family were looking forward to the birth of their second child!Of course, Zoey and Russell were also looking forward to having another child because Russell had not been there to accompany Zoey during her pregnancy and delivery, which was a regret. Therefore, both of them wanted to make up for this regret.And she almost became the terminator of their second child.Even if Zoey wasn't angry, Russell would definitely be so angry that he would want to slap her.Three people accompanied the adorable Layne to play at the playground. In the middle, Leanna arrived with Evelin.Because of Layne's gift, Evelin also had one, so when Evelin saw the gift, she happily jumped and danced.The little gir
Madeleine glanced sideways and saw a tall woman, wearing a mask and sunglasses, making a sound. There was also a girl carrying a bag beside her.Even if you couldn't recognize her from her appearance, you could still tell it was Madeleine from her voice.The person was Tiffany, and her assistant Rubi was next to her.It really is a narrow road for enemies.If it were someone else, maybe she would have let it go, but as soon as she saw that it was Tiffany, her competitive spirit instantly exploded."First come, last arrive."Tiffany recognized that it was Madeleine and immediately changed her demeanor, becoming particularly obedient. "So it's Madeleine, huh? Well, then I must give this necklace to you.""Let?" Madeleine despised bitchy women the most. "This is not yours, how can there be a 'let'?"Tiffany's assistant, Rubi, always acted like a bully. "Madeleine seemed to be in a bad mood today, her tone was a bit hurtful!"Madeleine scoffed, "She has problems doing things on her own, a
Carolyn and Carsen finally got together, and all that was left was their wedding.This made Zoey and Russell breathe a sigh of relief.If either of these two people was not well, their hearts could not calm down.Zoey nestled in Russell's arms and murmured, "Why is it that other people's happiness seems so effortless, while it feels so difficult for us and those around us?"Russell caressed her slender fingers and said, "Because the environment we were in was complex, with more interests and power struggles, it was impossible to guard against. If we were just ordinary people, we wouldn't have so many worries."Zoey looked up at him and said, "If you were an ordinary person, I guess there would be rich women wanting to sponsor you. A wealthy woman would just throw out a card, one hundred thousand per month, for the first two years!"Russell laughed out, "So, do you agree?"Zoey thought for a moment, "One hundred thousand a month, one million two hundred thousand a year, two million fou
The car stopped in front of City Hall.After Carsen got off the car, he walked around the front and opened the passenger door. He extended his hand like a gentleman and said, "Miss, who is beautiful, lovely, and intelligent, please get off the car and accompany me to sign in."Carolyn completed the crescent moon with her eyes, "What if I didn't get off the car?""Then I'll carry you in," Carsen said, his lips curved into a handsome arc, with a rogue-like demeanor.Carolyn crossed her arms and exclaimed, "Oh my, I was so scared! Someone tried to rob me in broad daylight! Help, someone!"Carsen leaned against the car door and the door frame, and said, "Carolyn, want to play cosplay?"Carolyn was taken aback at first, then her cheeks turned red. "You're being unserious again! If others knew that you're not actually as cold and restrained as you appear, they would definitely be shocked!"Carsen chuckled, "No one will ever know, only you know, I'm only serious with you."Carolyn pursed her
Carolyn looked around, but she didn't see anyone else, only that voice which she recognized as Layne's.She whispered, "If I don't accept your proposal, will Layne jump out in a hurry?"Carsen looked up at her and said, "So, why don't you give it a try?"Carolyn smirked and said, "I was worried about damaging your reputation. Carsen, you're so annoying, you just knew I would agree, right?"Carsen looked at her and said, "I really didn't think about it that much, you can disagree if you want. Then I will try my best to pursue you until you agree."Carolyn hummed, "You're lying, you knew I would agree."Carsen's thin lips curled up, "So, should I take that as your agreement?""Who proposes without a ring, only flowers?" Carolyn said, pursing her lips.Carsen chuckled, "I'm sorry, I was too nervous and forgot about this part."He quickly took out a small blue velvet box from his suit pocket. After opening it, there was a blue pigeon egg inside, crystal clear and shining like Carolyn in t
Carsen never thought that a girl would like him, let alone for nearly ten years!That youthful period was the most beautiful stage of Carolyn's life, occupying almost half of her life.What did Carsen do?He was really a fool, jealous of himself.He chuckled, but then burst into tears.His Carolyn!Even though he didn't know before that she had a crush on him, when she started appearing in front of him frequently, becoming his student, and occasionally bringing him meals, how did he not notice her feelings of love for him?Why was he so slow?Why did he make his little girl wait for so many years?Upon careful recollection, it seems that everyone knew about this matter, so why was he the last one to find out?After he confessed his feelings to her, Carolyn said she wanted to take some time to think about it, but she actually didn't do so and quickly accepted him.He was worried that Carolyn still liked the scumbag, so he quickly got involved with her.How could he be so shameless?Wit
Carolyn hasn't been getting enough rest lately. After taking the medication developed by Zoey, she felt very comfortable and quickly fell asleep.Carsen walked into the bedroom with a bowl of tonic soup and saw the little girl sleeping soundly.He walked over gently, placed the tonic soup on the bedside table, and sat on the edge of the bed, watching her.This silly girl, because she was afraid of burdening him, chose to run away.How could she be so foolish to get married to another man and cut ties with him?He reached out to touch her little face, which used to be chubby but now looked thin. He couldn't help but feel heartbroken, "Silly little fool."At that moment, a message alert sound came from his pants pocket.He took it out and found that it was sent by Angelo.I was the one who suggested getting married, of course, I didn't really want to, I just wanted to test your attitude towards Carolyn. You are genuinely in love with her, case closed. But do you know who the scumbag in
