And it turned out that the other person was none other than Norman Desmond. He never expected his younger brother to be able to help her like that. For many years, he believed that she wouldn't have had the means to raise their child without Norman.Even though the events of six years ago were long gone and he no longer pursued them, now that they had brought the child back to the country, they remained silent, not saying a word to him.The more he thought about this, the angrier he became. Did these people see him as a fool? Fiona Forger, it was forgivable to hit her, but what about the others?Because of the lingering anger in his heart, his movements, initially gentle, unconsciously became stronger, causing Fiona Forger, even in her beautiful dream, to let out a soft moan, "It hurts, please don't hit me anymore..."He returned to his senses, looking at the sleeping girl beside him. His actions on his hand remained the same, but the force he used returned to normal, even gentler tha
"You stole my man and said it has nothing to do with me?" Fiona Forger finally ignited Loona Richart's long-suppressed anger. The flames of rage surged, and disregarding everything, Loona aggressively reached out with both hands, intending to choke her.Fiona Forger frantically tried to push her away, but she could only make one hand while the other pressed dangerously close to her throat, threatening her with force."Do you know who I am? I am Loona Richart, the daughter of Charlie Richart, one of the ten prominent families in Singapore. And what are you, Fiona Forger? Just a foolish girl born from a fox spirit. If it weren't for the Forger siblings leaving the family, you wouldn't even have the qualification to work at Forger Corporation, let alone be worthy of Damian Desmond. How are you deserving of him? He is the heir of Desmond Corporation, and he needs a wife who can support and assist him in his work, not an ordinary girl who isn't even worthy of being a vase like you."As Loo
Seeing the Boss rarely this cheerful, Fiona Forger's questions became more daring..."I have a question for you. Why did you collaborate with the eldest brother to play with the three of us?" She had wanted to ask this question for a long time but had not had the opportunity."Play?!" Damian Desmond furrowed his brows. She used such a word."If it's not playing, then what is it?" Miss Forger pouted. "Don't you know that the eldest brother and the eldest brother are father and son? Now they've turned against each other, and you're the accomplice who almost destroyed their family. Don't you feel guilty at all? Let me tell you, the father now hates you a lot."So the marriage will take time!!!"Do you hate me?" He didn't answer but instead asked in return."I hate you for bullying me." Miss Forger pursed her lips. "From now on, you're not allowed to hit me anymore...""Fiona, I'm sorry about what happened today." Regarding this matter, he seriously reflected and didn't want her to think
"Wait a moment." The grandfather called back.Damian Desmond paused, curious to hear what his grandfather wanted to say."So, what about the engagement of the two of you?" the grandfather asked."I've been busy lately and haven't had time to arrange it. Grandfather, can you help me choose an auspicious date for our engagement? We can do it with just our family; no need to invite many people," Damian replied.Being busy was indeed true. With his parent's recent divorce, he had been even more active, and his investments required his attention.Of course, they would still get married, but Fiona had just entered his life, and it would be good to give her some time to enjoy her freedom. After all, she was still young.Engagement would signify their status, but he would wait until he got through this busy period to have time to go out with her. It wouldn't be longer than six months at the most."We'll handle this tomorrow. And make sure nothing unexpected happens this time, understand?" Six
Desmond CorporationAnna Desmond entered the office, waiting for her boss's approval. Her gaze secretly swept across the sofa where Miss Forger was sound asleep with a pillow in her arms. It's genuinely unfair how some people have robust support from their bosses, allowing them to sleep as they please without financial worries, unlike Anna, who worked hard and always felt short of money, especially when dealing with her boss's temper."Aren't you going out?" The boss placed the documents on the table, and after almost a minute of waiting for Anna's response, he couldn't help but remind her.The chief secretary snapped back to attention and quickly picked up the documents. "Boss, if there are no issues with the recruitment, I'll inform the HR department."Sigh, if she doesn't get a raise, so be it. But seeing Miss Forger enjoying such good fortune today only makes Anna feel even more frustrated. If she finds an assistant for her boss a little earlier, she could have more leisurely days
He genuinely came for business and not out of boredom to bother others. He wasn't really that malicious."The secretary's office is currently hiring. If you don't want to wait a few more days, let Anna immediately send someone over.""Okay, I'll go find Anna. Let's talk slowly."After Chris Desmond left, the boss pulled the girl in front of him into his arms and embraced her tenderly before finally letting go. The two of them went out to have a meal together.Meanwhile, Desmond Senior was anxious about his grandson's marriage and brought Puddy Forger to the Forger Group the next day to meet Taylor Forger.Despite Taylor Forger's anger towards Damian Desmond, he still had to personally go downstairs to greet Desmond senior because, in the business world, Desmond old held significant influence.His spirit soared when Desmond Senior saw Taylor Forger, who had rarely appeared in public places for the past few years. Accompanied by a child wearing a backward baseball cap, Taylor Forger see
But why is your son so much less decisive than others? Just because of a girl, he's so indecisive and worried. How pitiful..."Mom, I know I'm handsome; no need to praise me anymore." Jackson Hale stood up, walked to his mother's side, and touched her shoulders. "I know you rushed here as soon as you got off the plane because of the major event in my life, but I think you should rest a bit for your health. I'll come home for dinner with you tonight."The CEO Hale spoke while picking up the handbag on the table, handing it to his mother, and then pushing her towards the door.Let his mother continue to make a fuss like this. Today's work would be skipped altogether."Son, are you complaining that I'm bothering you?" Mrs. Sandra Hale glared at her son, dissatisfied."No way, Mom." Jackson Hale continued to smile. "I'm not a child anymore. I have a sense of moderation in everything I do. You don't need to worry so much.""Why can't you just snatch Fiona to yourself with moderation? Do yo
"Where are we going?" Fiona Forger asked, looking up at Damian Desmond with a slightly flushed face.Damian Desmond bent down and looked at her rosy face. Fiona Forger shook her head, and he didn't say anything else, but his steps seemed to slow down a bit.As they walked, Fiona Forger stole glances at the tall, dignified man beside her. He was tall! Probably not less than 1.85 meters, while she was 1.64 meters tall, which wasn't short compared to other girls, but standing next to him, she was a head shorter, barely reaching his shoulders.He had straight features, thick eyebrows, and bright eyes. He exuded a powerful aura, the kind of man that made many girls fall for him, right? At least she knew there were a few.But this man, now holding her hand and walking on the crowded street, even had a child together. She had never dared to imagine that one day she would walk alongside the father of her child like a married couple.Married couple - the concept of marriage felt very strange t
"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
