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
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 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
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
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
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
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
Madeleine looked around and realized that no one had noticed this scene. She quickly walked towards the door.She furrowed her brows and interrogated the man, "How did you come here?"Kristian squinted his eyes and said, "I should go say hello."Madeleine turned around and quickly grabbed the man's arm, walking towards the exit of the hall.Kristian's footsteps halted, and Madeleine didn't pull him, instead, she was pulled into the man's arms.Madeleine, afraid of being discovered, pushed him and lowered her voice, "What are you going crazy for?"Watching the woman's uneasy gaze, Kristian placed his hand on the back of her head and kissed her.Madeleine was scared to death. The two of them had a special identity, and it was highly likely that they would be photographed and released to the public, which would then go viral and become headline news.Madeleine slapped the man's chest and, seeing that he still wouldn't stop, she fiercely bit him.Kristian released her, his tongue licking
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
