Andrew ruffled her hair. "We love you too."
Ben rushed over, "Diana, I want a hug too!"
But just as he approached, Andrew skillfully grabbed him by the back of his collar.
He frowned, "Diana's in a delicate condition now, be careful with your movements, don't be so hasty."
Ben: ...Hmph!
Diana peeked out from Andrew's embrace.
"Well... I wonder how John is doing upstairs," she said.
"Don't worry, as long as John can be with you, even if Dad has to break his legs, I think John would be willing," Andrew reassured her.
Diana was taken aback by his statement.
Seeing her shock, Andrew smiled lightly. "Just kidding. Don't worry, Dad wouldn't do something so cruel."
Suddenly, footsteps echoed from the stairs.
Then, James and John descended, one after the other.
Both of them wore stoic expressions, unusually calm.
Diana instinctively stood up.
"Dad..."
James glanced at her,
Suddenly, a spark ignited in one corner of the room. Soon, the entire room was ablaze. The young man's eyes widened in panic as he pushed against the window, trying to get in. But no matter how hard he tried, the glass in front of him remained unmoved. He stood in place, watching helplessly as the woman inside the room merged with the flames... John's eyelids trembled violently. The next moment, he snapped his eyes open. His almond-shaped eyes filled with fear. But in less than a second, they quickly regained composure. The dream again... John massaged his forehead, letting out a deep sigh. Coming to his senses, he noticed his phone vibrating on the bedside table. He lowered his gaze. Seeing Diana sleeping soundly in his arms, he breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness. He didn't wake her up. Bending down, he gently kissed Diana's hair and smelled the fam
John paused, his voice turning colder. "But let's look on the bright side. You don't have much time left. You might not even make it to the trial before you are dead." With each word he spoke, Max's complexion grew uglier. Sitting on the bed for a moment, Max suddenly chuckled. Then he gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I'll transfer." At his words, Eva, who was standing by, turned her head in surprise, unable to hold back. "Max, are you... are you really going to do this?" Max reached out and grabbed her hand. "If I can't fill this hole, my properties and cars will be confiscated. I don't have much time left anyway. These things don't matter anymore. But what about you?" "Max..." Eva's eyes shimmered with gratitude. Taking the stock transfer document Ethan had prepared long ago, Max held the pen, his hand trembling as he slowly filled out the paperwork. Ethan took it, double-checked, then nodded at John. John's
The memories that he had buried deep within him, thinking they were illusions, suddenly became vivid. He remembered a sunny afternoon when Ruby looked at the roses he planted for her and smiled faintly, saying, "I really like them." And when he worked late into the night, falling asleep on his desk, he vaguely felt someone covering him with a blanket. Then, he forcefully demanded her that night, and she, with tearful eyes, said, "I didn't betray you, I just wanted to say goodbye to him..." In his fury, he couldn't hear her. Memories flooded back, the past he had deliberately hidden away, now occupying his entire heart like madness. Max covered his eyes with his hands, tears rolling down through his fingers. He suddenly realized that perhaps, very early on, Ruby had loved him. But at the crucial moment, he didn't trust her. It was his suspicion and sensitivity that ruined her life. And destroyed their fut
Carl lifted his head slowly, "Family head, did you summon me for something?" However, Yosef remained silent, his eyes scrutinizing him with a faint air of suspicion. Carl stood his ground, keeping his composure. After a while, Yosef uttered a single word, "Sit." Carl nodded and approached, taking a seat on the sofa facing Yosef. The two of them faced each other, a corpse lying between them. The scene was unsettlingly bizarre. Yosef spoke calmly, "I've been reviewing the performance of the territories you oversee in northern Europe this past year, and overall, the profitability has been exceptional..." Carl flashed a modest smile, "Thank you for acknowledging..." "Too... exceptional." At Yosef's words, Carl's smile froze. Behind his glasses, a glint of unease flashed momentarily before fading away. He lowered his head, "Family head, I'm not sure I understand." "Is that so? I've alw
Downstairs, Doctor Myers anxiously waited in the living room. Seeing John descend, he reported Diana's condition as usual. "Mr. Matthews, rest assured. Through these past few days of checks and analyses, Ms. Thompson's body hasn't shown any abnormalities. Her physical condition is relatively good, and the fetus in her womb has also been examined. For now, everything seems stable." At his words, John's expression remained neutral, but the tension in his eyes visibly relaxed. "Let's change the frequency of these check-ups to once a week for now," John said calmly. Doctor Myers immediately agreed, feeling a wave of relief. Every time he drew Diana's blood, he felt as though he was being stared at by death. A few more times, and he might be the one leaving before Diana. After a moment of silence, John suddenly asked, "Will her condition, being pregnant, have any impact?" Doctor Myers hesitated before replying, "For now, there doesn't seem
"Well, that makes us friends too." With that, Diana reached out and grabbed the hand Neo was holding, pulling Jenny out of the chair. With a tug, Jenny was lifted into Diana's embrace, who was half a head taller than Jenny, especially with her heightening insole. The two of them looked quite compatible. Diana reached out, wrapping her arm around Jenny's slender waist, casting a mischievous smile towards Neo. "Sorry, Neo, but Jenny and I have something to attend to. We'll be heading out now, hope you don't mind." Though phrased as a question, her actions exuded possessiveness. With Jenny in tow, Diana turned towards the exit. Jenny glanced back at Neo. "Um...Neo, I'm leaving with my friend! If there's anything, we can catch up later..." Diana held Jenny tighter against her side. "Stay put, sweetheart. Your time is mine now." Passing by the waitress, Diana casually handed her a card.
Jenny rushed over, excitement written all over her face. "Wow! That was incredible! You totally knocked that jerk out cold! You're amazing!" she exclaimed. "He was just weak," Diana replied nonchalantly. Meanwhile, the girl whom Diana had saved approached, gratitude written all over her face. "Thank you so much! I don't know what I would've done without you..." "It's nothing. But this kind of guy can be troublesome. You should file a police report, and if you need a lawyer, I can help you find one," Diana offered. The girl nodded fervently. "Yes, I will. Thank you..." Diana smiled at her before turning to Jenny, and together they gathered their belongings, preparing to head to the hospital to check on Frank. But just as they took a few steps, they were hailed by someone. Turning around, Diana saw the girl she had saved looking at her nervously. After a moment of hesitation, she stammered, "Um... is she your girl
His voice trembled slightly, carrying a comforting tone, "It's okay..." Diana's eyes widened in surprise. "John?" This call seemed to pull John out of his nightmare. His gaze flickered slightly, and the emotions in his eyes gradually stabilized. Turning his head, he glanced at Jackson in the passenger seat. "Inform Doctor Myers, have him bring someone to my place." Ethan drove back to John's residence at lightning speed. As soon as the car door opened, John picked up Diana and rushed into the villa. In the backyard hall, Doctor Myers and two other expert doctors were already waiting with instruments. Seeing John carrying Diana upstairs, they quickly followed. After gently laying her on the bed, John glanced back at Doctor Myers. "You said she was fine before, didn't you?" Doctor Myers stuttered, "I, I checked earlier, there didn't seem to be any issues, but..." "What's hap
At another table, Frank sat staring at Liam in his smart suit, his brow slightly furrowed."Hey, been causing trouble lately?"Liam rolled his eyes, displeased. "No.""What's with the haircut then? Going for the military look?""My mom made me." Liam sipped his champagne. "She thought my old hairstyle looked too thug-like for Uncle John's wedding, so she took matters into her own hands.""No worries, I think this look suits you."Beside him, Rose tilted her head, looking at him with adoration."You know what? I think any look suits you, I just really like you.""Cough~"Liam choked a bit.He cleared his throat, "Don't say such things in front of everyone.""Sure, sorry~" Rose nodded obediently.Frank thought to himself, Damn. Even my bro's nephew is showing off in front of me? Can't let this slide!He turned to Jenny with a mischievous grin."Jenny, do you think my hairstyle looks good
Upon arriving, she put her hands on her hips, adopting an accusatory posture."Look at this, I left for just a moment, and you're already being targeted by women. How can I ever feel safe letting you go out?"John's deep gaze slightly lowered. "And you?"Diana looked down at the Red Rose in her hand, feeling a bit guilty."Uh..." She reached out and presented the rose to John: "It's for you."John remained silent.Instead, the little baby in his arms stretched out a hand, grabbed the Red Rose, and then happily held it in her arms.Diana chuckled, pinching the little baby's soft cheek."Oh, our Tiger likes flowers~"The little baby stretched out her short arms toward Kevin, earnestly offering him the flower.The little baby handed the flower to him!Diana was astonished."My goodness, Tiger, you can't even speak and you're already trying to win over little boys?!"Truly her daughter!Kev
Kevin pulled on his turtle shell bag strap, seriously said: "I really have to go now, remember, my name is Kevin Nelson."Saying that, he turned his head and was ready to leave."Wait a moment."Kevin stopped in his tracks, turned his head, looked at him with a complex gaze.What...Did his brother remember something, or was he reluctant to part with him?Yosef picked up a Red Rose beside him."This, take it."Kevin was somewhat surprised: "Give it to me? But I'm a man, why would you give me a rose?""It's not for you."Yosef handed the flower to him, glanced at the distant girl, and said: "It's for her."Kevin: "...I just told you, my sister has a husband and a child, are you still not giving up?"Kevin thought: Oh, no! My brother may falls again in the same place after losing his memory!"What are you talking about." Yosef interrupted his thoughts: "I didn't think about pursuing her."
Kevin let himself be led by Yosef's hand, and they both sat on the swing in front of the flower shop.Once seated, the little kid beside Yosef didn't make a sound.He wore a bowl cut hairstyle, carried a big turtle shell backpack, and lowered his head, lost in thought.Yosef occasionally glanced over at him.After a while, he couldn't remind silence any more."You..."Hearing his voice, Kevin immediately turned his head, his eyes sparkling as he looked at him.Full of anticipation.Yosef slowly opened his mouth: "This outfit... who bought it for you?""My brother, what about it?""To be honest, your brother's taste isn't great." Looking at the little one's green onesie, Yosef slightly frowned, "Ugly."Kevin: ……This outfit was something Kevin had insisted on buying for his fifth birthday.He also bought a larger size for Yosef, as matching brother outfits.Although Yosef never wore it,
Hearing this, Kevin covered his mouth: "You mean... my brother's mind is damaged?"Godber corrected: "This is called mental issues.""Isn't that the same thing?"Godber: ...It seems so.Diana frowned. "Yosef lost his memory? With so many enemies, your situation should be unfavorable now, right?"Godber: "Mr. Nelson had already anticipated this. Before completely losing his memory, he divided the remaining power of the Nelson family into three parts, assigning them to the other three members of the Nelson family to keep each other in check, while he decided to retire due to health reasons."Kirin nodded. "So, currently, apart from us and Patrick, no one else in the Nelson family knows Mr. Nelson has lost his memory, thinking he's stepping down due to health reasons."Kevin asked: "Then where is my brother now?"Kirin glanced at Diana and John beside him, hesitating whether to speak.But then he heard John calmly say: "Gri
John's voice had a lazy, sexy edge."Sleep a bit more.""...Okay."Diana turned over, adjusting to a comfortable position, leaning into his embrace.Just as she was about to drift off, she felt the hand on her waist start to move along her curves.Wherever it touched, it ignited sparks.Diana's eyes flew open, and she turned her head.Behind her, John still had his eyes closed, his expression as calm as if he were asleep.But the hand under the covers was very much awake.This beast.Diana turned around and bit his Adam's apple.John frowned slightly, then opened his eyes.His deep gaze locked onto the girl in his arms.As if capturing prey, with a wild possessiveness.Diana knew that look well.It was the same look he gave her last night.She squinted. "Again?"His response was another wave of kisses....Diana became an overnight sensation without an
Reeves turned back and glared at Morse.Wanting to say something to retort against this guy.But he found... There was nothing to say...He looked at the cold and noble man beside Diana and felt an extremely complex mix of emotions.From the moment this man appeared, he knew he had lost.Lost utterly.John slightly lifted his eyes and swept them over Reeves holding roses.Facing the man's icy and profound gaze, Reeves felt somewhat nervous.Just as he thought John would question him, he saw John casually withdraw his gaze and look at the girl beside him."Do you like it?"Reeves: ... This man actually completely ignored me!Being ignored hurt Reeves' pride even more than being questioned!It meant that this man simply didn't regard Reeves as a threat!Unable to help himself, Reeves said."Are you Miss Thompson's fiancé?"Hearing this, Morse behind him covered his eyes with his ha
Hearing this, Frank approached her and whispered, "Big sis, think it through. This guy doesn't seem too smart; having him around might lower our overall standard.""Don't worry, if you can work well in the studio, so can he."Frank: ???Reeves beamed with joy: "Then, Miss Thompson, please accept my flowers first. When I join the Blue Rose Studio, we can get to know each other better.""I welcome you to Blue Rose as a designer, but I can't accept your flowers or feelings.""Why?""Because I already have someone I love."Reeves: ......He opened his mouth slightly, then his expression fell."Who is it?"Reeves scanned the group behind Diana one by one.A bunch of top-notch handsome guys and beautiful girls almost blinded him.This...Each one was very likely!Reeves had a complex expression on his face: "May I ask impertinently, the person you like, is it a man or a woman?"Diana:
Faced with the relentless questions from the reporters, Diana remained calm.She nodded."The name Blue Rose does hold a special meaning for me. As for Reeves, I'm not familiar with him; I have nothing to say.""Miss Thompson, you're so young and accomplished; how about your love life? Do you have a boyfriend?"Hearing this, Ben immediately stepped forward."This is Diana's privacy; we refuse to answer!"The reporters were taken aback for a moment.Everyone stared at Ben wearing a hat; suddenly, excitement surged: "Isn’t this Big Star Fly? Why did he suddenly appear here?"Someone seemed to realize something."Could it be that Fly and Thompson are a couple?!""You're talking nonsense! Diana is my biological sister; stop spouting rubbish here! And this is my girlfriend!"Saying that, Ben pulled Liora over and tightly grasped her hand."This is my girlfriend; Diana is my sister, got it?!"Hearin
