Now, what time is it that you're still teasing her? This kid obviously can't handle it. Thinking of this, Miss Forger couldn't help but wonder if eating outside for breakfast caused the problem."Do you have diarrhea?"Puddy, feeling uncomfortable, impatiently tossed the phone in his hand and shook his head, "Mom, I'm tired. I want to sleep for a while."Fiona Forger gently laid him down, holding his tiny hand tightly, "I know you're feeling uncomfortable, but the doctor needs to take a blood test to determine what's wrong. Can we do that?""Yes, just a quick blood test, and it won't hurt, okay?" Grandpa Desmond chimed in.Puddy continued shaking his head, "No blood test.""What's the problem that requires a blood test?" Fiona Forger looked up at the doctors standing next to the bed. A slight fever medicine should do the trick if it's just a common cold.One of the doctors, around 50 years old, answered, "We have examined him, and there's nothing wrong with his heart and lungs, but th
Waiting for Norman Desmond to return, he saw the mother and child hugging and crying, which startled him. After understanding the situation, he felt mixed emotions, wanting to cry and laugh. Listening to the little girl narrates her past stories, Damian Desmond felt even more regretful and guilty because he couldn't be by her side when she needed him the most.So when he received her call today and heard her crying, his heart burned like fire. "Darling, I won't be like this in the future. No matter what happens, I'll always be here with you and our child." He lifted her hand and kissed it gently."Thank you," she leaned her face against his palm, closed her eyes, and quietly cherished the presence and protection of this man."Foolish!" Why thank him? She and their child were one of the most essential things in his life; taking care of them was his responsibility and duty. "Annoying, really, always complaining about yourself," Fiona Forger said with her eyes still closed, acting spoile
For several days, Fiona Forger and Damian Desmond took turns keeping a close eye on their son, never leaving his side in the hospital. Thanks to timely treatment, the little boy's fever subsided after two days, and three days later, the red rashes disappeared. Moreover, he didn't have to peel off an unsightly layer of skin, which made the little boy happy for a long time.The most joyful news was the prospect of getting discharged and going home after the blood test tomorrow.Being confined and treated in the hospital for several days made the active little boy almost go crazy with boredom. That evening, as usual, Damian Desmond went to the room to read him a story. He had become quite skilled at it and believed that if they had another child in the future, this bedtime storytelling activity wouldn't be too much trouble for him.After the little boy closed his eyes and fell asleep, Damian Desmond paused and carefully tucked him in. As he was about to go to the adjacent room to find Mi
Some sweet words may not be spoken, but practical actions, such as birthday gifts, can speak volumes."For my birthday? He gave me two unlimited credit cards, a yacht, and as an engagement gift, a villa with a garden, and some stocks." Miss Forger didn't mean to show off, but when the two massage therapists heard it, they were taken aback. One birthday gift alone was already so generous; she lived in a different world, completely changing their perspective."Fiona Forger!" Cherry Desmond also exclaimed, "I'm asking you, what do you estimate your net worth to be now?"Indeed, her big brother was incredibly generous, and she couldn't help but feel a bit envious. She also wanted unlimited credit cards and a yacht! Sigh.Of course, apart from her big brother, other family members' gifts were quite lavish, too, like jewelry and branded handbags. Who knows how much it would be if she converted those gifts into cash? And they had just gotten engaged; she couldn't even imagine what it would b
"We can't let them look down on us, can we?" Miss Grayson beamed a brighter smile than the chandeliers above the store. "Cherry, it's a pleasure to meet you." After greeting Cherry Desmond, Miss Grayson turned to Fiona Forger. "Mrs. Desmond, thank you for your previous support to our store. Purchasing twelve rings at once, we are truly grateful." These are the high-class VIP customers, deserving of warm hospitality and receiving generous bonuses and commissions.Hearing this, Mrs. Goreng found it hard to believe. She grabbed Fiona Forger's arm and said, "You were just engaged, and he bought you twelve rings? Why is Mr. Desmond favoring you like this? Our family's daughter is the future of that household; you are just a daughter-in-law...""What are you doing?" Fiona Forger pulled her arm away, not wanting to get involved with these people. But Miss Grayson's words dragged her into the conversation. Mrs. Goreng gripped her arm tightly, her mouth incessantly running with harsh words. Th
Whenever she curiously touched something, he secretly vowed to use it on her later, making her call him "husband" convincingly."Tomorrow is a happy day, don't let it slip away," Leon Alexander kindly reminded. He didn't worry about the other side of his cousin, but he was afraid of what might happen to his petite sister-in-law. If they continued, she might not be able to wake up the next day."Is it safe here?" She didn't want to talk much with Leon Alexander, but this issue was something she couldn't ignore. She didn't want any compromising images to be leaked to the media.Leon Alexander's good friends opened this hotel, and while it was safe, to ensure 100% safety, Leon Alexander detailed the places where hidden cameras could be installed in rooms like this. After thoroughly checking everything and confirming no oversights, Damian Desmond turned off his phone.Meanwhile, Fiona Forger had already rolled around excitedly on the large round bed, hugging a banana-shaped pillow and tos
The mother's hurtful words were like adding fuel to the fire for Alice, making her unable to sit still any longer. She quickly stood up, her fingers trembling as she pointed towards her mother, who was still incessantly talking, "Mom, have you said enough? You keep making a fuss like this; even if Mr. Peter Desmond is not interested in me, I will still be kicked out of the Desmond family."She recalled that night when he returned home, and she suggested having a child, he immediately stormed through the guest bedroom, warning her not to talk nonsense outside; apart from resentment, she was left feeling utterly silenced, wholly silenced.She thought that becoming Mrs. Desmond was a victory, but it was just a joke.Seeing her daughter's agitation, Mrs. Goreng was also startled, staring at her for a long time without regaining her composure."Mom, haven't you been bragging about your connection to the Desmond family lately? Do you know Mr. Peter Desmond deliberately sought me out to warn
Upon returning to the Forger's house, Fiona's father had been waiting restlessly and scolded her for a while. Her mother hurriedly ushered her upstairs, where the makeup artist and hairstylist were already waiting to start their work. They applied various concealers on the exposed areas of her skin. After all, how could she go out without covering up after the wild night with the boss?She still remembered how that wicked uncle used every means to make her call him "husband," even though she had put on makeup, she could still see a suspicious pink hue on her delicate face, making her look even more charming and indescribable.It's... hard to imagine!"Miss Forger, you have such a beautiful smile!" The makeup artist said sincerely while applying the concealer.Getting engaged was supposed to be a happy event, especially when getting engaged to the esteemed scion of the Desmond family, someone whom many aspiring young ladies dreamed of. She would probably be smiling even in her sleep if
"What?" She opened her eyes and turned around, her clear gaze meeting his deep one."I'm sorry. And... thank you.""I love you."Between them, there was no need for words like "sorry" and "thank you.""I love you too." His words had barely finished when his warm lips sealed hers, and in his heart, he silently vowed to love her even more, erasing any lingering hurt and scars she had endured.o0oOn their wedding night, though late, it finally arrived.This was destined to be a gentle and dreamy night, a night he had been waiting for so long.He was careful and tender to the extreme when treating this girl he loved and cherished.And she, her restless heart, couldn't hide her anticipation.The water in the bathtub rippled incessantly due to their late-night intimate combination.In the warm bedroom, the curtain lightly swayed in the night breeze."Still hurting?"He held her and pityingly kissed her sweat-drenched long hair.Ember Canen shook her head, her small, blushing face brimming
"Yes." Brad reached into his pocket, took out a pack of cigarettes, and handed it to him."You can go back now. Please help me lock up on your way." Holding the pack of cigarettes, he pulled one out and lit it."Alright." Brad knew that, at this moment, his boss didn't want to be disturbed by anyone. The mess in the office could only be cleaned up by the cleaning staff tomorrow.He silently left, casually closing the office door behind him.Chris Desmond picked up his mobile phone, now turned off due to the earlier throw. With a cigarette in his mouth, he walked to the window and looked down at the mesmerizing night scene below. However, he had no mood to appreciate it.When the call connected, he exhaled a puff of smoke and decisively said, "Immediately arrange for someone to go to Malaysia. I want to know her exact location within two hours."They couldn't hide her away like this, preventing him from meeting her. If there were any issues or requests, they should tell him. He would d
The whole family came to the house only to leave empty-handed. In the end, everyone went their own way.Originally, Damian Desmond intended to take both mother and child home before heading to the company. However, both insisted that he go to the company, so he could only lead them along.Upon reaching the office on the top floor, Mr. Desmond went to work while Mrs. Desmond comfortably lay on the sofa reading a comic. Oh, not the 18+ type, but a parenting comic.Young Mr. Forger was sitting at the desk chatting with his father for a while, but he got bored and ran to the IT room on the 19th floor to play.The people in the IT room saw the young prince arrive and hurriedly welcomed him, offering various drinks and breakfast with care.After playing for more than two hours, young Mr. Forger finally got up lazily when the upper floor called to remind him to come to eat."Young prince, if the CEO finds out you're playing like this, we..."There would be no place to hide!But would they da
But family members, at least, should be notified, right?Speaking of family, she had yet to tell her mother. She should find an opportunity to talk to her.She reclined back onto the bed, tossing and turning for a while without being able to sleep.So, she picked up her phone again and went online. When Jacky Forger returned to the room and saw her still messing with her phone, he snatched it away and placed it on the bedside table."Go to sleep." "And you? Are you still busy?"It was almost midnight."Tomorrow, I have to go to Lyon for a trip. Do you want to come with me?"Liliana usually handled the matters over there, so now she suddenly mentioned her unsuitable physical condition as an excuse. He would still have to go there to take over the work, conveniently monitoring the ongoing projects' progress."Do you want to take me out?""If you say you want to, then sure."They were a married couple, yet he didn't have much free time for her. Their wedding had been delayed, and they di
She discreetly glanced at him and saw that he was still motionless, with an unpleasant and frightening expression on his face.If this had been in the past, seeing him like this would have made her legs tremble and unsteady. Even though they had been living together for a while, looking at him still sent shivers down her spine.Carefully approaching, she bent her back to lift the tea tray, but she heard him speak..."Come here!"These were just two simple words, yet they held a power that made others hesitate.She let out a sigh and obediently walked over. Before she even reached his side, he stood up and pulled her towards him. He used force to press her onto the sofa, and before she could react, his entire body was pressing down on her."Jacky..." Angela Zylian let out a cry. Her chin was held and turned towards him; his lips, carrying the faint scent of cigarettes, were pressed tightly against hers.She knew he was angry. From his actions, she could sense the invisible anger he was
As soon as Mrs. Robinson asked this question, Angela Zylian froze. She thought they knew the situation, but being asked like this caught her off guard. For a moment, she didn't know how to respond. Ultimately, under Mrs. Robinson's scrutinizing gaze, she decided to tell the truth. "Previously, we had a... romantic relationship...""And now?" Mrs. Robinson had already guessed the answer to this question. There was nothing new here. What she wanted to know was the current status.After all, they hadn't been living together before.A couple of times, Mrs. Robinson and Liliana had been to her brother's apartment, but they had never seen any trace of a girl."Now she's my wife. Any objections?" A familiar voice replaced Angela Zylian's answer.Jacky Forger had returned home at some point. Holding a document folder and a freshly removed vest, he stood at the living room entrance. His casual gaze swept over his mother and sister. "Why didn't you let me know before coming?"When his mother ha
One of the reasons Angela Zylian came to France was because Jacky needed an assistant. However, she could look for another job if he didn't need her."Don't you like this kind of life?" He set his coffee cup down, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and then leisurely asked."Not necessarily."Being at home every day, taking care of household chores, and cooking for him made her happy, but there wasn't much to do with just the two of them at home.Most of her time was spent reading books or daydreaming, which was becoming monotonous."Let's talk about work later." He stood up and proposed a different idea to her. "If you're bored, consider furthering your studies."At any rate, going to school was better than going out to find a job where she might attract unwanted attention from other men. While there were undoubtedly men at school, the situation was much simpler overall.After CEO Forger approved her plan to continue her education, Angela Zylian eagerly focused on her career.Going back
In the RoomTiffany sat on the bed, swinging her legs back and forth as she looked at her mother, then glanced at her "sister," her small mouth sealed..."Brother-in-law said he's the father, so... who is the real father, after all?""Tiffany, come here." Mrs. Canen waved her hand, and Tiffany obediently hopped off the bed and ran to her.Taking a deep breath to regulate her emotions, Mrs. Canen looked at the little girl and asked..."Tiffany, if you had another father like your brother-in-law, would you like that?"Following her thoughts, the little girl nodded."Then let's start telling the old stories..."o0oThe heavy rain in Singapore had finally stopped, but November in Paris brought continuous drizzles.Though she wasn't going to work, Angela Zylian woke up early daily to prepare breakfast for him.Their married life had officially begun, and everything else felt new apart from becoming more familiar with each other's bodies.During this period, they were trying to adapt to eac
She admitted it with her mouth, causing a sharp, intense pain to surge through his chest, a pain so fierce that it numbed his heart and soul.No wonder every time she was stimulated to the point of regaining her memory, she looked at him with so much fear, tears streaming down her face...So, this was the truth.So, that wretched, damn person was him. Like a madman, he pounded his hands on the steering wheel several times, finally burying his face in it.Why did this foolish woman forgive him? Why couldn't she open her mouth and say something to him?Why was she so foolish?"Chris, I..."She reached out to him, but the man who had buried his face in the steering wheel suddenly lifted his head, looking at her with eyes blurred by her tears, staring at that familiar face...Why?Why was it him?He got out of the car and circled to help her open the car door, wordlessly pulling her out."Wait outside for a while."Saying that, without waiting for her reaction, he got back in the car, sta
