Dylan saw Caleb sigh in relief, and he shut the car door and got into his driver's seat before he drove out from the school premises.

Dylan arrived home and parked his car in the garage. He stepped out from his car and assisted Caleb and Nina as they went into the house.

Caleb and Nina were shocked to see Florence was back, and Caleb rushed up to meet Florence while Nina shyly stood aside, staring at the young lady who was in her mother's house.

Nina knew Florence used to check on her class, but she wasn't very familiar with Florence, as Florence attended their private school too the previous year.

"How are you doing, Caleb? Nina?" Florence excitedly hugged Caleb, who rushed to hug her, and she walked up to meet Nina.

"Fine," Caleb and Nina both replied.

"Are you done tidying up the kitchen?" Dylan asked Florence, and she replied, "Yes, sir."

"Is there anything left for the two of them to eat?" Dylan asked again, and Florence replied, "Yes, sir. There was some soup and rice in the kitc

In her mind, she cursed Dylan: "Look at the luxurious mansion that Dylan is living in with his wife... How I wish I were the true owner of this house."Rosie frowned, and Dylan met her gaze. "Oh! I don’t know why it’s taking Jessica so long to call the maid. Wait, let me go and call her myself.""Okay," Rosie responded, sinking into her thoughts. She knew that she had personally dumped Dylan before, and even now, she was certain that she didn’t still love him but only wanted his money and enjoyed having sex with him.Rosie waited for Dylan to return as she sat alone on the living room couch.Dylan approached the corridor that led to his children’s room, recalling when Jessica had asked Florence to take their kids to their room.He knocked on the door, but no one responded.Dylan tried to open the door but discovered it was l

So all this time, you knew Rosie was dating my sister's husband, and you kept quiet about it?" Remy asked sadly, avoiding his wife's tearful face as she knelt behind him, crying and holding his legs."I didn't know then, Remy. Believe me, I didn't know Dylan was your brother-in-law. I hadn't met you when Rosie started dating my brother. I don't even know when Dylan's and Rosie's relationship began. I only knew Rosie as my brother's girlfriend.

    Sharon smiled and told Frederick, "Don't worry about serving me anything, brother. I'll transfer 1 million dollars to you now, and if you manage it well, I'll give you another. But I hope Remy doesn't find out. He keeps loading my account with money and wonders why I don't spend it on ordering shoes and bags to look nice for him.""He's a good husband and wants you to look nice for him. I hope you can talk to him about me. I really miss my friendship with Rex. How's Rex doing now?" Frederick asked sadly. Sharon replied, "He's doing well, brother. Rex is married and has a son now.

Are you leaving for the office now?"Rosie sighed and replied, "Yes. Do you have money to take care of our kids? I hope you're not planning to sell off my two kids to raise money for yourself alone...""Rosie..." Frederick frowned and replied, "They're my kids too, and I don't need a DNA test to prove that.

You just got here today, and you already know your way around my house."“Our house, Rosie. Don't forget that we are still married and not yet divorced.

    Jessica pushed the bedroom door open and saw Dylan sweating in the room as he sat on a blue chair.She immediately asked him, "Babe, so you're now dating Rosie again, right?""No, Jessica... Don't tell me that you're spying on me now? I was just telling Rosie that she cannot see me in my office, as she was requesting to meet with me today to discuss a partnership deal.
