At night, a light rain began to patter down from the sky.

The southern city of Northbay also experienced a sudden drop in temperature due to the influence of the cold air moving south from the north.

The weather in the south was not as cold as in the north, nor did it have the heating of the north. On the few cold days of the year, we could only endure the cold dryly, enviously watching our friends in the north.

Isabella had wrapped a thin blanket around herself and lazily nestled on the sofa with Misty, watching an entertainment show. As she watched the bizarre and intense discussions between the two sides in the show, she too was fired up.

Back then, Isabella was the captain of the university debate team. Every time the school organized a debate competition, as long as she participated, she never lost.

It once made her the "Debate Goddess" in the mouths of the boys at school.

Quinn was busy working in the study, leaving only Misty to accompany Isabella. Isabella, who was so excited

    Returning to the room, Isabella lay in bed unable to sleep, feeling somewhat shy and somewhat embarrassed.She had finally mustered up the courage to go to the study to find Quinn tonight, but she was still rejected by Quinn.She didn't believe that Quinn didn't know what she wanted to do. He had kissed her so passionately, she even felt him...Isabella didn't dare to think any further, for she was certain that she would lose a whole night's sleep due to shyness.Just as she was thinking, Quinn pushed the door open. It was evident that he was being particularly careful while opening the door and his footsteps were exceptionally light, probably worried about waking her up.She couldn't even sleep, what was there to argue about?I really disliked him!Quinn lay down on the bed, pulled the blanket to cover her, then lay down beside her, followed by a soft sigh from him.Was he still sighing?Isabella, frustrated, lifted her foot and kicked out.Her strength was not small, she kicked Quin

    This kind of feeling, he had never experienced before. So fresh, yet so unforgettable.Isabella was still diligently tying her bow tie, quietly waiting for his response. Her head was lowered, making it impossible to see her complexion, only her dense eyelashes, fluttering like little fans, seemed to be calling for his pity.Quinn couldn't help but respond—Suddenly, he propped up Isabella's slender jaw with his hand, leaned over, and kissed her.The kiss came so suddenly, so fiercely, that Isabella couldn't help but stiffen. Yet, against her usual behavior, she didn't shrink back, didn't refuse, but responded awkwardly.A mutual kiss, long and sweet, lasted until their breaths became ragged, only then did they let each other go.Quinn caressed Isabella's tender face, his thin lips slightly curved as they slowly moved to Isabella's ear, whispering, "Good."The voice was hoarse and deep, like refined gravel, carrying a warm breath.Isabella couldn't help but shudder, quickly lowering he

    There was silence on the other end of the phone again, a silence that lasted longer than the previous one, so long that Isabella couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Speak up.""Don't worry too much about the company affairs. I won't interfere with the position of the Sales Department manager, nor will I allow my subordinates to interfere," Quinn said.Quinn's sexy and pleasant voice came through the handset, each word rhythmically knocking on Isabella's heart window.He knew she cared about this, so he absolutely did not interfere in her affairs, letting her strive for that position with her own abilities.Success or failure, it was all her own choice, he absolutely did not interfere at all.Isabella nodded, "Hmm, I believed you."Quinn said again, "It's cold outside, go home early if you can."Isabella chuckled, "Understood, Mr. Ashton."Watching Isabella make a phone call, repeatedly saying "Mr. Ashton," and laughing with a shy and reserved demeanor, Lila got goosebumps all over her

    "If he dares to mess around, I will absolutely not let him off," Isabella said fiercely, her eyes slightly narrowed.Constantly avoiding only made Alexander more and more arrogant, Isabella didn't want to be led by the nose by others anymore.No matter how powerful the Gray Group was, they couldn't monopolize everything. Moreover, this was a society governed by law. Most importantly, she was willing to believe in Quinn.She believed in Quinn's capabilities, if Alexander really dared to do anything, Quinn would definitely not sit idly by."Izzy..." Lila suddenly hugged Isabella tightly, patting her back forcefully, "Izzy, hang in there! Promise me, don't let those scumbags hurt you anymore."It was precisely because Lila had witnessed firsthand how Isabella was betrayed and hurt, that she understood how deeply Isabella had been wounded.However, those who hurt her not only showed no remorse, but now they even came to her door. Did they want to hurt her again?"Lila, rest assured, no on

    Quinn was not physically present, but their phone call lasted all night, making Isabella feel as if Quinn was actually by her side.When I woke up in the morning, the first thing I heard was Quinn's voice coming from the phone, "Awake yet."It seemed as if he was really sitting by the window, listening to her wake up, and turning his head to look at her.Isabella chuckled, "Hmm, I'm awake."Quinn said again, "I had someone prepare breakfast.""Mr. Ashton, what would I do if one day you stopped treating me well?" Isabella said plaintively.Quinn was so considerate in everything he did, she would gradually get used to him, rely on him.What if one day he was no longer so considerate to her? In fact, everything would just return to the way it was before. However, for someone who had already gotten used to his kindness, she would feel that he was not treating her well. What should she do then?"As long as you were Mrs. Ashton for a day, Mr. Ashton would not treat you badly." She was his w

We had to administer emergency treatment immediately."The patient's health was already poor!Suffered severe physical injuries again!Isabella had no idea how much time had passed, but the words the doctor had said before entering the resuscitation room still echoed in her ears over and over again.Thinking of the blue and purple bruises on her mother's body, and then thinking of the sorrowful, pained, and regretful look in her mother's eyes when she looked at her, Isabella's heart ached so much that her breathing almost stopped.In her lifetime, her mother was weak and indecisive, but the love her mother gave her from childhood was no less than that of other mothers.Isabella still remembered that she was particularly naughty when she was a child, often scraping her knees. Her mother would often treat her wounds while shedding tears out of heartache.Her mother w

    They all knew that Quinn had just made a call to Isabella. After the call, no one knew what was said on the other end, but Mr. Ashton impulsively proposed to return to Northbay immediately.They had been with Quinn for many years, but they had never seen Quinn so willful before.Such a big deal, leaders from several provinces in the west had all arrived, but their Mr. Ashton, he dropped the ball at the crucial moment.Could it be that their Mr. Ashton's feelings for Isabella were more than just the initial pity, but had turned into romantic feelings?***After sending Johanna to the special ward, the doctor sighed, "Ms. Jennings, if your mother wakes up, don't let her be subjected to any stimulation. Also, domestic violence is intolerable, it's best to seek legal protection."Isabella had indeed considered using the law to protect her mother, but her mother had been educated from a young age to follow her husband after marriage.No matter how that man treated her, she had never though

    Quinn put on a black overcoat over his silver-grey suit. Due to his tall stature and graceful stride, as he approached her, he seemed like a piece of moving art, so captivating that one couldn't take their eyes off him.Isabella watched him quietly, watched him get closer and closer to her, until finally, he was by her side.He called her name in a low voice, "Isabella--"At that moment, Isabella didn't hesitate at all, she willingly threw herself into his arms, extending her slender arms to tightly embrace his lean waist, "Mr. Ashton, how did you manage to come back at just the right time?"Because he knew she needed him at this time, he came back just in time.Quinn held her with one arm, gently patting her back with the other, and softly said, "Isabella, your mother-in-law will be fine, don't be afraid.""I was really scared, but when you came, I wasn't scared anymore." She nuzzled into his arms, her voice so soft, a hint of grievance in her tone, but mostly, it was relief.She did

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

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
