Isabella snapped back to reality and hurried to catch up, but was stopped by Ava, "Isabella, Mr. Ashton is taken care of by us, you don't need to bother. You should go to work."Ava's words made Isabella feel extremely uncomfortable, as she was clearly being treated as an outsider.Her own husband was sick, and she couldn't even be by his side. Isabella felt as if she had been slapped hard in the face, her heart filled with frustration.She just realized that she had never truly entered Quinn's life. Quinn's background, Quinn's work, everything about Quinn, seemed untouchable to her.Even now that Quinn was sick, she couldn't take care of him by his side as his wife.She was almost doubting, was Quinn really her husband?Isabella bit her lip, the more she thought, the worse she felt. Firstly, she was worried about Quinn, and secondly, she felt suffocated inside."Woof woof..." Sensible Misty sensed that Isabella was in a bad mood, rubbed against her foot, and woofed a few times to com
Quinn ignored everyone, leaving Isabella somewhat embarrassed, standing there not knowing whether to advance or retreat.After a while, Quinn finally looked up, his eyes cold and calm beneath the golden frames of his glasses, "How did you get here?"He didn't want to force her to take a cold shower, which resulted in a high fever, so high that he fell into a coma. Yet, this woman still had the nerve to go to work, leaving him aside without even asking, truly a heartless woman.The expression on Quinn's face and his tone of voice made Isabella feel unwelcome. She was nervous and pursed her lips, "Ava sent me to see you."Ava had to invite her before she came. If he hadn't let Ava make that call, would she not have come?Quinn furrowed his brows, his voice becoming even more indifferent and calm. "You've seen me now, so go back and continue your work.""Oh... okay." Isabella forced down the resentment in her heart, nodded with a smile, and turned to leave.This woman really left!Quinn
Isabella got up and sat next to Quinn, glancing at the table. There were more than ten dishes of various sizes, most of which were spicy, totally unsuitable for a patient who had just had a high fever.After taking everything in, Isabella's gaze was fixed on the vibrant and appetizing-looking tropical smoothie on the table.Even if Isabella didn't understand medicinal cuisine, she knew that a tropical smoothie had the effect of nourishing blood and yin for women. She couldn't possibly let Quinn, whose high fever had not completely subsided, drink this, could she?Quinn usually ate light meals, and all those dishes were made by this aunt. Why did she only make such meals when he was sick?After sweeping her gaze around, Isabella looked at Quinn with a question, "Are you sure these dishes were prepared by Joselyn for you?""No." Quinn looked at Isabella, his gaze deep and gentle, "I've already eaten. These were specially prepared by Joselyn for you."Isabella exclaimed in surprise, "Was
Ava and others had been by his side for many years, he treated them like friends and family, and most importantly, Isabella was his wife.Dr. Caleb also realized that what he had just said was too much. He laughed awkwardly and said, "Hello, Mrs. Ashton!"Isabella chuckled, polite and courteous, "Hello, Caleb!"Ava said again, "This morning, I was too anxious and spoke rudely to Mrs. Ashton. I hope Mrs. Ashton can forgive me."Ava and the others had been with Quinn for many years, demonstrating strong capabilities and earning Quinn's deep trust. Over the years, they seemed to have become half of Quinn's family.It was precisely because I knew Quinn so well, knew that he wouldn't fall ill easily, but once he did, the situation would be severe. That's why the situation this morning happened.Because they hadn't known Isabella for long, they naturally treated her as an outsider in the moment of crisis. Afterwards, they indeed felt it was wrong.Isabella was about to speak when Quinn inte
All major media outlets, despite their relentless pursuit and heavy blockades, couldn't capture Qadir. How did such explosive news get out? And who had the audacity to release such news?The Ashton family was a prestigious and wealthy lineage, placing great emphasis on decorum and etiquette. Therefore, over the years, there had never been any negative rumors about the Ashton family.No matter whether they were good at hiding or they could truly cultivate their mind and nature, the Ashton family always gave people the impression of being low-key and high-quality.Upon suddenly hearing such news, Alexander was very excited, but at the same time, he was also somewhat worried.If this news was true, then he could have Lucas find some attractive women to cater to his preferences.In case this news was false, sending a woman to Qadir would be asking for trouble, it might be like shooting oneself in the foot.Therefore, before deciding to do this, Alexander had to know where this news came f
The Isabella of today, although still as eye-catching as she was back then, could no longer see his presence in her eyes.The thought of Isabella only having eyes for Quinn from NextEra Technologies inexplicably ignited a fire in Alexander's heart.How could a man who could only afford a car worth hundreds of thousands marry his Isabella? Why would Isabella be so devoted to him?Thinking of these, various emotions surged into Alexander's mind, the most prominent being the feeling of his belongings being taken away by others.He had lived so long, yet he had never wanted something he couldn't obtain. He was determined to take Isabella back from Quinn.He said again, "NextEra Technologies has reached that stage, and yet Quinn hasn't made a move. What on earth is he playing at? Could it be that I overestimated him, and his true strength is actually so weak?"Lucas said ingratiatingly, "Mr. Gray, the Gray Group is one of the top in our country. Once our news is released, many companies wo
Mentioning Quinn, Isabella's face turned red instantly, involuntarily recalling those dirty jokes Lila told that night.Seeing her face turn so red, Lila reached out and tapped Isabella's forehead, "You're such a hopeless girl. You can't even handle a mention of a man.""Lila, can we stop talking about men for once and change the subject?" Isabella didn't want to continue the topic of Quinn. If she accidentally said something wrong, she would definitely be scolded to death by Lila.As she spoke, Isabella put food into the pot, "Considering you've been flying for over ten hours, let me serve you dinner tonight.""You're sensible," Lila laughed, then added, "I haven't met your man yet, don't you plan to introduce him to me?""I had planned to introduce you to him a long time ago, but your schedules never matched up, and these past few days he's been away on a business trip," Isabella said, as she served some vegetables into Lila's bowl.Just as they were talking about Quinn, Quinn's cal
Upon hearing the sound, everyone turned around in unison, only to see a man in a crisp silver-grey suit standing behind them.Beneath his golden glasses, his eyes seemed to carry a faint hint of amusement. Yet, that amusement was chilling to the bone, making one unconsciously want to take three steps back.Lucas was the first to snap back to reality, "Oh... I thought it was someone else. So it's Mr. Ashton from NextEra Technologies. It just so happens that my young master also wants to meet you, so why don't you come with us."However, Quinn didn't even glance at Lucas. He walked elegantly and steadily to Isabella, reached out and touched her head, "I told you not to go out at night, but you never listen. You should be punished."His voice was as usual, deep and sexy, without any emotional fluctuations. It couldn't be said that he had no emotions, it could only be said that his emotions were solely for Isabella.Quinn's emotions would make onlookers think that he was thinking. "Not go
How Quinn wished she would say more! He had so many things he wanted to tell her, he wanted to know how she had spent these past three years.He wanted to tell her that their Izzy II was already three years old, very cute and sensible, and sometimes quite a handful.But all of these, he couldn't tell her now.Or, didn't know how to start.His wife, his Isabella, she no longer remembered their past."Iris?" Quinn repeated her Slendish name a few times, laughing, "Iris is a very nice and interesting name, the goddess of starry night in mythology. I suppose your Celestian name must also be very nice."Suddenly hearing someone ask for her Celestian name, Iris couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed. After a moment's hesitation, she still said, "I fell seriously ill two years ago and forgot everything from before. My father didn't tell me my Celestian name, but he calls me Izzy."- Izzy.The tip of the tongue touched the lower teet
The rapidly descending elevator suddenly got stuck and did not continue to descend.The scream in the elevator stopped abruptly, but Isabella's fists did not. She seemed to be greatly frightened, treating the person holding her as a ferocious beast.Quinn held her tightly, constantly comforting her, "Isabella, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here, it's okay, it's okay, I will never let anything happen to you again, never again—"Three years ago, he lost her and he has been filled with regret ever since.If he were to encounter her now, no matter the cost, he would absolutely not let her suffer the slightest harm again. No one could hurt her anymore.Quinn held Isabella tightly, instructing, "Anyone with a phone, take it out for lighting, and immediately press the emergency button to notify the property management."Hearing his calm voice, the trapped people in the elevator were like they had taken a sedative, no one made a fuss o
Because there was hope, there were countless disappointments.This time, Quinn did not act immediately, but quietly watched the woman, whose silhouette resembled that of his Isabella, walk further and further away.Just as she turned the corner and disappeared from his line of sight, Quinn could no longer care about anything else, and he rushed out of the crowd surrounding him.Regardless of whether that person was his Isabella or not, even if the truth would disappoint him, he still wanted to confirm it with his own eyes.He would rather be disappointed again than miss any opportunity that might lead him to her.Quinn suddenly ran off, and for reasons unknown, everyone else followed him."Mr. Ashton..."The one who called out to him was Braylon. After finishing the matters here, there was still a very important meeting waiting for him. He had no time to delay."Don't follow me," Quinn said without turning his head.As s
The StylePulse Show was world-class. After the event, not only did the models' value skyrocket, but the attention received by the backstage designers also significantly increased.Although the designers did not have as much exposure in front of the audience as the models, their status in the fashion industry was far higher than that of the models, and those who won awards were extremely popular for a time.After Iris won the award, there wasn't much change in her life, because her father managed all her affairs. She just needed to draw her design drafts, and life was still very comfortable.On the third day of arriving at Northbay, Kason had already accepted an announcement for Iris, it was an interview program for a fashion segment on a certain TV station in Northbay.Designers always worked behind the scenes, and Iris had never made a public appearance over the years. Suddenly hearing such news, she was resistant internally. However, when she saw the ho
Quinn looked in the direction Izzy II was pointing, but still saw nothing, finally shaking his head in frustration.What has been going on with him recently?Even seeing a simple heart-shaped band-aid, or hearing some childish words from Izzy II, he could associate everything with Isabella."Daddy, Izzy was hungry, she wanted to eat red strawberries and sweet chocolate." Izzy II raised her little hands to hold her father's face, and said seriously with a soft voice.Soon, Izzy II could no longer remember Izzy I who had just helped her, she was just craving for delicious food."Does Izzy want to eat?" Looking at his daughter's twinkling big eyes, Quinn couldn't help but lean down and kiss her rosy cheeks."Kiss for five hundred bucks." Izzy II spread her hands, said softly, "Daddy, give money."Quinn asked, "Does Izzy want money? Or does she want strawberries?"Hearing her father's words, Izzy tilted her little head and blinked
The little girl first looked at Iris with a shocked expression, then stretched out her hand, pointing at Iris, "You are Izzy I," then pointed at herself, "I am Izzy II." Then she made a "2" with her chubby little hand, "We, two Izzys!"Izzy II looked so adorable that Izzy I couldn't help but laugh out loud, "So Izzy II, why aren't your family members with you?"Such a lovely child was left here just like that. If it weren't for her conscience, Iris really wanted to take this child home and raise it herself."Tania was over there, and so was Ethan," Izzy II pointed behind her, not far off. There stood a woman and several bodyguards, their gaze fixed intently in this direction. Not a single move escaped their watchful eyes.Iris understood in an instant, it wasn't that no one was watching her, but rather, there were too many people watching her. Perhaps the little one didn't want so many people following her, so those people could only watch her from a dist
Iris had spent the past three years, the years she could remember, living in the city of Serenova. She had grown accustomed to the pace of life and the environment in this city. She particularly loved the city's fashionable atmosphere and deep down, she didn't want to return to her home country to develop her career.But her father was very good to her, he gave a lot for her.Her mother passed away early, and her father, in order to take care of her, did not remarry. It could be said that he devoted all his thoughts and efforts to her throughout his life.Her father, in order to take care of her, had almost given up his own life, placing all his hopes on her. He gave her enough space and trust, allowing her to excel in the field she loved.This kindness, Iris had no way to repay. So, now that her father was old and wanted to return to his birthplace, she had no reason not to accompany him.Fortunately, the nature of her job was relatively flexible.
The StylePulse Show concluded, with Iris winning both the Newcomer Award and the Best Fashion Award, becoming the first young designer in the history of the StylePulse Show to win both the Newcomer Award and the Best Fashion Award.As Iris received the trophy, she also got a substantial amount of prize money. More importantly, she finally achieved her life's dream of becoming a designer recognized by professionals.For Iris, the most important thing was that, once she had status and position, she could naturally earn more and more money. Then, she could live in a bigger house with her father and lead a better life.Three years ago, Iris had suffered from a severe illness. After recovering from the illness, she had forgotten all her previous memories, she didn't even know who she was.Fortunately, her father was by her side, helping her recover her previous memories, and also helped her rediscover her talent for fashion design, which enabled her to achieve
Arriving at Misty's little house, at first glance of Misty, Quinn could hardly recognize it.In just a short period of absence, Misty, who was originally as fat as a round ball, had suddenly lost a lot of weight, becoming quite thin and flat.It lay in its little house, weak and powerless, looking as if it could take its last breath at any moment."Misty..." Quinn crouched beside it, calling it softly while reaching out to stroke its head."Woof woof--" Upon hearing Quinn's voice, Misty struggled to open its eyes. Its eyeballs rolled around, seemingly glistening with tears."Misty, don't be afraid. Daddy has called the doctor, and the doctor will be here soon." Quinn picked it up, holding it carefully in his arms."Woo woo--" Misty whimpered again, shaking its little head gently, as if saying it didn't want to see the doctor, it wanted to leave with its mother. But its mother was no longer there, and there was no point in it staying. It want
