Mason almost raced to the airport, driving at speeds he had never attempted before. When he finally pulled up at the airport, he parked the car and immediately made his way to the boarding gate. A quick scan of the area, and he spotted the woman who had attempted to escape.He strode over and suddenly grabbed Renee's wrist. Renee had no idea he was approaching, and she was startled when her arm was yanked. An uneasy frown creased her forehead as she turned to look at the man's angry face.Her heart raced uncontrollably. She had clearly driven him away earlier in the afternoon. Given his arrogant personality, why had he come back?"Come home with me," Mason said, his tone filled with anger.Only now did Renee wake up to the situation. She began to struggle, saying, "No, that's your home, not mine. I'm not going back, Mason."She deeply loved this man, that was true, but she still wanted to preserve a shred of her dignity. She knew Mason had proposed remarriage because of the child in h
In the end, Aaron and the driver of the white car were lucky. Aaron's injuries weren't severe, perhaps due to the white car driver braking in time, or maybe because Aaron's sports car was advanced. The driver only suffered a leg injury, and neither of them was in life-threatening condition.The next day, Elaine stood at the door of the hospital room, taking several deep breaths before pushing the door open. The room was quiet, and Aaron lay silently on the hospital bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. When he heard the sound, he calmly turned his head and, upon seeing Elaine, immediately brightened up.He almost sat up right away. Elaine noticed the thick bandage on his forehead and remembered that he had been covered in blood when she left last night. She approached and said, "Is the head injury severe? The nurses said you haven't been eating or drinking. You need to take care of your health."Aaron looked at her and said, "I want to eat the fish soup you make."Despite her reluctanc
In the late afternoon, hurried footsteps could be heard from upstairs. "What did you say? She's coming too? Why should she attend our gathering? She has an invitation, so what?" Sarah exclaimed as she rushed to try on her dress.Watching her rush off, Mary immediately called Elaine. "Miss, she's left the house," and that's exactly what Elaine had been waiting for. She quickly prepared and left.It must be said that these elite young ladies knew how to choose their venues. Just look at the handsome and stylish waiters walking around; they were a sight to behold."Miss Smith," Elaine had never been here before, but the handsome young server who had led her recognized her immediately.Elaine raised an eyebrow in surprise, and the young man who had escorted her in said, "Follow me."When they arrived at their reserved banquet hall, Elaine's eyes widened. The gathering not only had exquisite food and wine but also featured a handsome male server attending to each woman, serving them food a
Elaine had just received a text message, and Teddy was now inside the room. Everything should proceed smoothly from here, with only tomorrow morning's news left to wait for. However, she didn't feel the satisfaction of revenge; she felt helpless. She didn't want to dirty her hands, but circumstances forced her to do so because of her lingering resentment.Sarah had ruined her life, her love, and now she would ruin Sarah's!Back at the Smiths' house, Sylvia hadn't gone to bed yet. She sat on the couch, holding a book and asked softly as Elaine entered, "Do you feel a bit better now?"Elaine shook her head, smiled faintly, and walked over to Sylvia, resting her head on her. "I know this won't solve anything, but I just felt like doing it. It's the only way to put an end to the hatred between us. Even if I regret it later, it's better than hating them every day."Sylvia, in a rare display of deep contemplation, didn't speak for a long time. She then patted Elaine's arm and said, "You've
Elaine couldn't remember calling Aaron last night, so his appearance surprised her. She felt a pang of anxiety, as if she had done something wrong and was caught by the person who mattered most to her. But then, she found it ridiculous. Why should she care about Aaron's feelings? She forcefully pulled away from his grip, saying, "Let go."Aaron, equally frustrated, clenched his teeth but glanced around the room and felt nothing out of the ordinary.He remained silent, and Elaine walked away. The play was over, and the next step was to facilitate their wedding. As for what Aaron thought, that was none of her concern. She hadn't gone far when Aaron grabbed her again.Elaine took a deep breath, stopped, and looked at him with a cold voice, "Do you need something?""Was it you?" Aaron blurted out, instantly regretting it. He bit his lip in frustration, realizing that he had misspoken.Elaine's face was filled with mockery as she looked at him coldly. "My affairs are none of your concern."
Melissa stared at Mary for a moment and said, "I know everything you've done, and I don't intend to blame you. Originally, I just wanted them to get married, and now it's fine like this. I'll talk to Sarah, and you bring Teddy back."Mary couldn't believe her ears. Melissa didn't blame her and even agreed so easily? "Really?" she asked uncertainly.Melissa glanced at her and sighed, shaking her head with a bitter smile. "Now that the whole city knows about it, who would still want to marry Sarah? So, let it be."What she was more worried about now was what Elaine would do next. With Sarah taken care of, would Elaine target her next?"Mom, Mom!" Suddenly, Sarah shouted from upstairs.Melissa was startled and hurriedly ran upstairs. Sarah had rushed out without wearing any clothes, clutching herself in fear. When she saw Melissa, her eyes were wide open with a look of terror. "Mom, will I get pregnant? Please help me buy some contraceptives. I don't want to get pregnant!"She was trembl
After her divorce, Elaine began working at G Clothes. It's rather strange because she couldn't recall ever submitting her resume to this company, yet she received an interview invitation and was offered a job opportunity.The key to this peculiar situation lies in the fact that she isn't actually an official employee of G Clothes. To be precise, Elaine has a cooperative relationship with the company. She doesn't draw a salary from G Clothes but earns income through sales commissions. For each piece of clothing she designs and sells, she receives a 10% commission based on the selling price.Elaine had only been with the company for a short while when G Clothes was acquired by the new Aaron Group. In other words, Aaron is now the boss of this company. She had been wondering whether Aaron, who is so busy, would actually come to G Clothes every day.Due to a traffic jam, Elaine was running late when she arrived at the building. Normally, her cooperative status with the company meant that
In the afternoon, when Elaine returned home, she found everyone gathered around, looking at something that seemed to bring them great joy. Sylvia waved at her eagerly, "Elaine, come take a look. This is my nephew's first ultrasound picture."Today, Mason had accompanied Renee to the hospital for a prenatal checkup and had taken a picture of the baby during the ultrasound. It was a tiny embryo, not very clear yet, but the whole family was examining it closely.Initially, this should have been a joyful occasion. Elaine also wanted to see the picture, but suddenly, unpleasant memories flooded back, and her expression changed. She stood up abruptly and hurriedly went upstairs.Her sudden departure left everyone in the room stunned.Sylvia blamed herself, patting her own mouth. "It's all my fault. I knew that Elaine is terrified of these things. Why did I let her see it?"Mason gazed silently in the direction of the stairs, not saying a word. Even Bowie's expression seemed tinged with help
