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
Damian Desmond got up and saw a person and a dog rolling around on his bed. The pitiful bedsheet was pulled off, with one half falling onto the floor and the other half wrinkled."You shouldn't play on the bed; it's dirty," he intended to tell the dog.Upon hearing someone speak ill of his dog Xu, Puddy immediately got angry and pulled Xu into his arms. "Xu takes a bath every day and likes to be clean. Don't say he's dirty."Even Xu, in the little boy's arms, seemed to understand that the master was dissatisfied with him. It also knew that the little master was helping it regain fairness. It looked at Damian Desmond with big round eyes...Those eyes were truly pitiful, melting even the heart of someone who didn't like cats and dogs like him. Was this small creature the dog Fiona Forger used to provoke him before?Thinking of the past lies, she used to create misunderstandings, he couldn't help but sigh. Because of her, he treated his son like Xu."Okay." He raised his hands in surrend
"Why is it like that?" Fiona Forger asked, her mouth agape.Indeed, she hadn't had time to keep up with the news these past few days, so she had no idea about such an important matter. It wasn't that she didn't watch the news, but more accurately, she was being squeezed dry by the great boss next to her. She had no energy and no time to watch anything.The man placed a hand over her mouth and said, "You don't need to worry too much about other people's matters. Is Puddy still mad at me?" The topic shifted to their son, diverting her attention from the question she had intended to ask about Damian's parents' divorce."Don't give it such a stern and fierce look next time. Even if our child is wrong, they are still a child and will be scared." She pleaded on behalf of their son."Did someone intentionally lead them astray for so many years?" Thinking of this, she still felt a little uneasy.Did he want to settle the score with her now? Miss Forger shuddered. "No one did it on purpose.""
Even if she couldn't become Damian Desmond's wife in this lifetime, she could still become his stepmother. Isn't that an exciting thing?Lying on the bed, the girl smiled weakly, her decision already made. Using the child to exchange for what she wanted, it was worth it!o0oAt 7 a.m., after finishing his morning swim, Damian Desmond returned to the villa. It was still quiet, indicating that his little piglet was asleep, but that little brat... Who knows where he was?As he was thinking about it, he saw Puddy Forger carrying a dog from the second floor. As Damian Desmond raised his head, he caught sight of the little boy, and their eyes met in mid-air...Puddy Forger didn't avoid his gaze. Under his observation, he walked downstairs. As he passed by Damian Desmond, the man spoke first."Still mad at Dad?" The imposing man relaxed and straightened himself up. He wasn't just a kid, after all. The necessary rituals would be taught to him gradually.Why bother with a brat? Even if he didn
Education ended, and initially, everyone thought the three would go upstairs. However, Mr. Olivia Forger unexpectedly took the initiative to approach Puddy Forger, stooping down and looking at the boy gently, "Shall we take him out to play for a bit?"Mrs. Olivia Forger found his demeanor at this moment utterly different from his harsh tone when scolding his daughter earlier, which was somewhat amusing. She stood up and said, "Puddy, many people are taking their dogs for a walk outside the small park. Would you like to take Xu there to find a playmate?""Many people are taking their dogs for a walk out there?" Puddy's eyes immediately lit up."Yes, there are." Both grandparents nodded."In that case, let's go out for a walk." Puddy hugged Xu and walked ahead, with Taylor Forger following behind.In reality, Puddy wasn't interested in finding a playmate for Xu but instead selecting a mate for him."Fiona, why were you so impolite to Miss Bonet earlier?"Now that only two of them were l
In an apartment somewhere...Wilma Bonet opened the door, threw her keys and purse onto the sofa, and walked into the dining room where Aboli Brian was carrying the last plate of food."Smells delicious; I'm starving to death," Wilma Bonet reached out to grab a piece, but Aboli Brian skillfully avoided it. "Go wash your hands and bring two bowls of rice here."Wilma Bonet pouted and walked into the kitchen.The dining table was set with four dishes, obviously too much for the two of them. The sisters ate and talked."I went to the Forger's house today," Wilma Bonet calmly said after finishing her bowl of soup."So soon?" Aboli Brian stopped her actions upon hearing her sister's words."Just to deliver some documents.""And you thought I was officially visiting. How does it feel?""A luxury villa in Sentosa, what do you think?""Do you feel uncomfortable inside?""If it were you, would you feel comfortable?""That's why we're back here." Aboli Brian shrugged."I saw that fool's son tod
As for the previous rumors about the romantic relationship between Miss Forger, CEO Desmond, and CEO Hale, it's been boiling. Why does CEO Hale keep staring at Miss Forger? Hasn't their past relationship ended yet?But Miss Forger only glanced at CEO Hale and immediately averted her gaze. Is she afraid that CEO Desmond will get angry?As for Louis Richart and Loona Richart, the two brothers from the Richart Group didn't react and were focused solely on their laptops.In reality, Loona Richart's calmness was only superficial, as internally, she was boiling with anger.Today's meeting was originally one that her grandfather didn't allow her to attend. Still, she pleaded with her eldest brother Louis Richart for a long time, promising to study alongside him without saying a word. Unable to withstand her persistent clinging, Louis Richart finally agreed to let her come along.Under everyone's gaze, it was believed that she wouldn't accomplish anything. As an older brother, he naturally ho
