Hearing him say that, Mrs. Sandra Desmond finally felt at ease.As the dinner progressed, the atmosphere became more cheerful just as they were almost done with the meal, two unexpected guests entered, surprising everyone.It was Mr. Peter Desmond and Alice!Meeting under such circumstances made it a bit awkward, especially for Alice. Damian Desmond nodded at his father in greeting and then returned to Ben to continue their interrupted conversation. Mrs. Sandra Desmond politely greeted them with a nod.Mr. Peter Desmond squinted as he looked at them, and the more he looked, the more it felt like a family gathering dinner. But who was that foreign man? Why had he never met him before?Well, joking aside, if he was related to his family, he was also associated with him somehow. What did it have to do with the blue-eyed blonde man?"Peter, let's go over there," Alice said, grabbing his arm when she noticed him gazing at them.It had been long since they had gone out for a meal together,

This restaurant is where upper-class people like to gather, making it hard to avoid meeting acquaintances.She and her son had a dinner reservation here tonight, but their table was on the upper floor. While eating, she received a message from a friend asking her to come downstairs to watch an entertaining show. However, when she arrived downstairs, the leading actor had already left.Feeling a bit disappointed for receiving the message late and missing the excellent performance, little did she know that there was still another interesting show behind her. It was the scene of Mr. Desmond, the playboy, leaving his beautiful wife alone and going alone. They had just been married briefly; how could he get bored so soon?But thinking back, she still felt sorry for the young girl standing before her. Using beauty to captivate someone, using beauty to win favor, how could that last? Especially with a man who always had butterflies buzzing around like Mr. Peter Desmond. He never lacked beaut
Last Updated : 2023-07-23Billionaire Coddle His Wife Chapter 176: Wilma Bonet looked at Taylor Forger, who had no expression on his face, sitting across from her.
Damian Desmond was taken aback for a second, then immediately understood that Taylor Forger must be trying to control Wilma Bonet, and that's why he took back the 30% ownership.But what could Wilma Bonet do even if she gained 30% ownership? If it weren't for Taylor Forger's refusal, the Forger Group would easily fall into the hands of Jacky Forger, and then dealing with Wilma Bonet would be a piece of cake for him. She wouldn't stand a chance against him.But it seemed that Taylor Forger would find it hard to forgive Jacky Forger in this lifetime."Your father probably just wants to secure his position as the chairman. Nobody can shake him off," Damian Desmond said as he ran his fingers through her hair.Taylor Forger probably didn't want Fiona to know about Wilma Bonet's identity and certainly did not let Mrs. Olivia Forger find out either.But it seemed that this girl, Wilma Bonet, couldn't be easily satisfied."But your dad said he would find a talented person to manage the compan

"Everyone has their own business," Fiona Forger sat on the bed. "Mom, when Aunt Bonet visited today, please don't tell Dad about it. Otherwise, he'll skin me alive.""Why is that?" Mrs. Olivia Forger asked."I'll have to ask Dad to know the reason. And I think he probably wouldn't tell you if he didn't tell me. But I know you're clever, and you might find a way to get him to talk. Just don't let it slip that I told Aunt Bonet to come up here," Fiona advised.Mrs. Olivia Forger nodded. As she lay down after taking her medicine, she couldn't sleep and kept thinking about her daughter's words. She tried to figure out why Taylor Forger didn't let her meet Naccy Bonet.o0oAt the construction site of the second phase of the new island project, Damian Desmond and Jacky Forger were standing in front of the boat. Behind them, a group of employees responsible for reporting the project's progress was waiting. Half an hour later, Damian Desmond signaled for them to step back, leaving only himsel

Damian Desmond shrugged, "I don't know.""You two were together the whole afternoon, and now you say you don't know? What did you guys talk about? It can't just be drinking away sorrows, right?""He didn't say anything, just drank all the rare bottles of wine I've been keeping for years." He had to get those back later. He originally wanted to keep them for occasional romantic nights with his wife on the boat, but who would have thought that guy would finish them all?Although there was a little mishap during the birthday night at sea, there wouldn't have been any problem if they hadn't done it on the boat."So, what do we do now?"The plan to enjoy a romantic night on the boat with him had now been ruined because of the presence of the eldest brother. How could there be a romantic night with him still on the ship?"Just leave him here. Will we throw him into the sea for the sharks to eat?"But Mr. Desmond overestimated himself, especially when carrying an unconscious man due to alcoh

"Speaking of which, Fiona Forger did call her, but CEO Desmond was also present here. Nothing happened between them; they just spent one night on the boat together, that's all," Jacky Forger listened, and his lips slightly curled up. He was sure that Damian Desmond called her, but she avoided any close relationship with him. Was she afraid he would cling to her again and not let go?Getting up from the sofa, a few rays of the early sun shone through the glass window, making him look even taller and angelic, causing others to look up at him from afar. After gazing at her for a while, he spoke, "Overtime? How much does your company pay for Overtime? I'll pay you ten times more shortly."Without affection, he tossed out that statement and bent over to pick up the crumpled shirt on the sofa. He then walked straight into the bathroom inside the yacht. His whole body reeked of alcohol, and even he couldn't bear it.Angela Zylians watched the man disappear before her eyes, feeling a long-los

"Kidding? Zachary, do I still need to chase girls?" Zachary Desmond pouted.He was annoyed with those girls clinging to him, so he didn't want to pursue them actively."Be careful not to play too much, or your father will lock all your credit cards. Then you'll have to come to me, the poor brother, for help.""Is that so, Norman? You refused me when I asked to borrow money before the engagement fiasco." Zachary Desmond replied with a displeased expression. After all, he was also a young master of the Desmond family; how could he indulge himself to such an extent?"That's because from now on, I have to save money for my wedding. So, it's better to be kind to me now so that you won't say you don't owe me any brotherly love later on.""Wedding expenses? The distinguished Norman Desmond is afraid he won't have enough money for his wedding?" But to be fair, he heard that when their parents divorced, all the family assets were transferred to his older cousin, while some real estate was give

The girl entered, placed the tray on the tea table, and then started pouring water into the copper kettle to heat it before setting out the other utensils. Her movements were very skillful, from boiling the water, warming the teapot with hot water, rinsing the tea, washing the cups, to brewing the tea. Her techniques were swift and precise. When everything was ready, she extended her hand, looked at everyone, and said, "Please enjoy the tea."While the young ones were savoring the tea, the two older men were engaged in a lively conversation. The conversation lasted almost two hours before the grandmaster once again chose the dates for their engagements. Fiona Forger's engagement was set for about a month later, while Chris Desmond and Ember Canen would get married two months after that.Preparing for two weddings within three months might have been rushed and exhausting for ordinary families. Still, it was merely a matter of issuing orders for the Desmond family, and everything would

"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
Billionaire Coddle His Wife Chapter 250: Chris Desmond, don't act like a child anymore...
"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
Billionaire Coddle His Wife Chapter 249: Boss, what's happening?
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
Billionaire Coddle His Wife Chapter 247: I have something to discuss with Jacky
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
Billionaire Coddle His Wife Chapter 246: Now she's my wife. Any objections?
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
Billionaire Coddle His Wife Chapter 245: Three years? That's long.
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
