Perhaps Elaine's words had indeed hurt Calvin. When they came out of the cinema, Calvin's expression was not good, and he turned his head to look at a movie poster on the wall without saying a word.

Elaine also felt uneasy, but knowing that her attitude might hurt this man, she had to steel herself. "Thanks for today, but I have something to do. I'll be leaving now!"

Calvin looked at her but remained silent.

"Well, goodbye!" Elaine once again met his profound gaze and solemnly repeated, "Calvin, thank you!"

Understanding that she was bidding farewell, Calvin felt a sense of discomfort. He struggled to find words to say but failed to speak. He could only watch her figure leaving, his hand hanging in mid-air helplessly...

Elaine didn't dare to look back, biting her lip firmly, walking away with great determination.

At this moment, she even thought, "If it weren't for that frantic night, and if I hadn't gotten pregnant with Aaron's child, how nice it would be! At least now, I could whole

    As the clock neared six, Sarah, accompanied by Cathy, finally arrived at the agreed-upon restaurant. Sarah's face was filled with anxiety as she complained, "It's all because of your bad idea to leave them alone together. What if something happens?""You're just too naive!" Cathy grabbed her arm. "You always listen to whatever Aaron says and get deceived by him without even realizing it. He said it has nothing to do with Elaine, and you believed him. Sometimes you have to try things out to know if they're true or not!"Sarah glared at her. "Alright, alright. Let's just go in.""You really care about them," Cathy teased, and from the corner of her eye, she made a subtle gesture to a nearby waiter. The waiter nodded discreetly and then walked away. Cathy smiled brightly and caught up with Sarah. "Let's go."Sarah's mind was entirely preoccupied with the two people being alone together, and she didn't notice Cathy's subtle action.

    The two bid farewell like old friends. Elaine hung up the phone first, but Aaron still held onto his phone, listening to the rhythmic beeping. His brows slowly furrowed, feeling a kind of inexplicable disappointment."Hey," a person approached from behind and pushed him suddenly.Aaron frowned unhappily and turned to see Matt's smiling face. He threw a punch at Matt's chest. "What are you looking at?""I have to say," Matt responded casually, still wearing a playful smile, "you can endure a lot. Taking such a heavy dose of medication, aren't you afraid it'll damage you and affect your happiness for the rest of your life?"Aaron's face changed suddenly. Although it was the effect of the drugs, with his body heating up and his mind racing, he couldn't help but recall the wonderful feeling of holding a beautiful woman in his arms. He had some difficulty controlling the emotions surging within him."Look," Matt saw it all and teased him even more, "Are you moved?""Get lost!" Aaron snappe

    When a woman makes an advance...Sarah's somewhat shy kisses landed on Aaron's face—his eyes, nose, cheeks, forehead—and finally returned to his lips."Aaron," her voice carried a seductive allure.Aaron gazed at her, not responding, as a rising anger quietly surged within him."I..." Sarah was both flustered and anxious. She didn't know why, but she had a growing feeling of unease. She felt as if something significant would happen after tonight.That's why she was in such a hurry to become Aaron's woman tonight. Only then would she feel at ease. Once this idea took root in her mind, she felt as if she were possessed, driven to do something crazy.Thinking of what Teddy had done to her before, her fingers trembled. But finally, she gritted her teeth and, while kissing Aaron's lowered face, her right hand started to explore his body.Aaron was taken aback, suddenly opening his eyes. He looked at the woman beneath him, feeling somewhat uncomfortable. How could a rich young lady who had

She had actually arrived at the Smiths' house half an hour ago, but seeing Elaine's calm demeanor now, she wasn't sure if she should tell her the truth."Renee, have some orange juice," Elaine offered her a glass.Renee took a sip and held the glass in her hand, her fingers tightening slightly.Elaine noticed her uneasiness and felt her heart start to race. She pulled up a chair next to Renee and casually changed the topic, "I've decided to go to Paris and live with my father. It should be nice.""Is that so?" Renee responded softly, the words on the tip of her tongue swallowed back. She quietly picked up the glass again and drank half of the orange juice. "Paris is great. I have a classmate there; I can introduce you to her.""Okay," Elaine could sense that Renee had something on her mind and just gave a simple r

    Downstairs was in chaos. With Mason's intervention, the front desk could only report to higher-ups. Upon learning of the situation, Jason immediately informed Aaron.Aaron left the meeting room. Behind him, some shareholders grumbled as he exited before the meeting had finished. "He doesn't even consider us. What's the point of having this meeting? Let's end it, disperse!"Many shareholders left in anger, except for Lionel. He leaned back casually in his chair, a faint smile playing on his lips. He watched the commotion unfold, amused. "Look at the mess this has become. Let's see how Aaron handles this!"...Aaron took the private elevator to the ground floor. As he stepped out of the elevator, he was met with a shocking scene. Three security guards had Mason surrounded. On the other side, several female employees were struggling with Elaine.

    The gray sky seemed to have been torn open, releasing a torrential downpour. Elaine stumbled out of Aaron Group, lost in thought. The sky flashed with lightning and thunder rumbled, echoing the thunderclap that had just exploded in her mind. It wasn't Aaron, it wasn't him, it couldn't be...She suddenly wanted to laugh, and as she laughed, tears streamed down her face. As she walked, she wiped away the tears, her lips curling into a wider smile. She felt like a fool, crying and laughing like this!"Wait!" Aaron chased after her. The rain was pouring heavily, and that foolish woman had dashed into the rain without an umbrella. He had never encountered such a stubborn woman!The rain was too heavy, and Elaine didn't hear anyone calling after her. She wiped the rain from her eyes and hastened her steps toward her car. She needed to calm down and think things through. Her shoulder was suddenly grabbed."Get over here!"Elaine didn't even have a chance to turn around before she was yanked

If Aaron was innocent, then who could have bribed Dr. Wilson? Could it be...She clenched her clothes tightly, then abruptly turned her head and stared at Sarah through the car window. Her mind cleared up in an instant. Aside from Aaron, who else wouldn't want Sarah dead? The answer was glaringly obvious, wasn't it?The car door was suddenly pulled open. Upon seeing Elaine, the smile on Sarah's face froze. "Miss Smith, what are you doing here?"Elaine didn't speak. She stared at Sarah with a dark expression. Sarah felt extremely uncomfortable under her gaze and reached out to grab Aaron's arm, saying, "Aaron, she...""It's fine," Aaron casually interjected, showing no intention of explaining further.Restless, Sarah shook his arm, her brows furrowed. She put on the demeanor of a hostess and said, "Aaron and I have th

However, Sylvia felt he was too young for her and turned him down.A few days later, Sylvia was taking a break in her office. She heard footsteps approaching the door and assumed it was a nurse coming to remind her about a patient. She set down her coffee cup and stood up. But when the door swung open, it wasn't a nurse who entered; it was Lance, dressed in a suit and holding roses.Almost reflexively, Sylvia's heart skipped a beat. She pretended to flip through patient records and casually asked, "Why are you here?"Not receiving an immediate response from Lance, Sylvia raised her head to find him standing less than two meters away, holding roses and looking directly at her.Lance said, "You asked me to think it over carefully, and I did that after I went back."His expression was incredibly earnest, and Sylvia's fingers, gripping the

    Seeing the young man staring at her, Sylvia wasn't one to be subtle. Considering the potential identity of the young man, even though she didn't have any disdain for that profession, she still felt a bit strange. So, taking advantage of the moment when the man was in a daze, she swiftly moved out of his embrace.Realizing that her arms were suddenly empty, Lance snapped back to reality. He lowered his head and looked at his empty arms, feeling a sense of loss. A trace of disappointment appeared on his clean face, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly."Lance, I advise you to think it over. I'm offering you a high price. Don't regret it!"

    From a very young age, Sylvia displayed a different side compared to other girls. While most girls immersed themselves in pretty princess dresses and shades of pink, and vied for the attention of handsome young men, Sylvia showed little interest. Furthermore, she had an exceptional older brother, Lance, which led her to have high standards when it came to men. Ordinary young men simply couldn't capture her interest. During her school years, many pursued her with flowers and gifts, but failed to attract her. Later, when she began working in the emergency department of a hospital, she encountered gory scenes every day. Her conversations were often peppered with terms like "fracture," making her one of the renowned figures at St. Love Hospital's emergency department. Sylvia didn't think much of men. They seemed to exist only to fulfill certain needs, and she had little desire for such things. Having become accustomed to being on her own over the years, even as her family members marrie

    In mid-September, Renee gave birth to a baby girl. When Elaine and Aaron arrived at the hospital, they saw the newborn baby, wrinkled-faced and tiny. Elaine looked at her with great affection and couldn't wait to hold her.The nurse carefully handed the baby to her, a soft bundle that seemed fragile, as though she might break with a wrong move. Elaine held her with stiff movements, as if cradling something extremely delicate. She didn't dare to breathe too heavily."She's so small and so soft," she exclaimed excitedly. Elaine turned to look at Aaron and was surprised to see a hint of tears in his eyes. She was momentarily taken aback. The baby in her arms had already been taken away by the nurse."I have to take the baby to the nursery. Family members can go there to see her," the nurse said and left with the baby.In the corridor, it was just Elaine and Aaron. Elaine placed her hand on her swollen abdomen, then linked her arm with Aaron's, and smiled. "We'll have our own baby very so

    As time passed, Elaine's belly gradually grew larger. With Aaron's meticulous care, she gained a little weight. Her once sharp chin filled out, and her complexion improved.During these two months, a significant event occurred: Ralph Brown passed away. He transferred all of Aaron's company's 30% of shares to Elaine, left the old Brown family mansion to Vincent, and the other five properties, including cars and various antiques, to Trevor. Mavis, at first, didn't agree with this distribution of the inheritance. Elaine didn't want those shares either, but the lawyer explained that if Elaine refused, the shares would have to be donated to a charitable organization. So, in the end, Elaine had to accept the shares. Mavis had no choice but to accept it as well, as the will had legal effect.Elaine already had 10% of Aaron's company shares, and with the additional 30%, it meant that Aaron's company ultimately returned to Aaron's control.Throughout this process, Aaron remained silent.

    Aaron brought Elaine back to their home. He carried her upstairs, being gentle and considerate. "You're so cold. Let me run a hot bath for you."In truth, Elaine wasn't cold; it was his own body that felt icy.Seeing his lips turning purple, Elaine couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke his cheek. "I'm sorry for making you worry."Aaron just shook his head. "As long as you're okay."Elaine bit her lip. "I'm not okay. I've really thought about ending it, why go on living to face all that pain?"As her words fell, Elaine distinctly felt Aaron's arm around her tightening. Nevertheless, she continued, "I just thought of the baby in my belly. I've already killed one. I can't harm this one too, so..."Her words caused Aaron's entire body to tense. Yet, he was also relieved that they had this child. Otherwise, he might have lost Elaine forever. He shifted his gaze to her abdomen and softly said, "Thank goodness for you."Elaine was unaware of his thoughts, and her fingers instinctivel

The samples had been provided by Melissa herself, and the hair samples, including Elaine's and hers, couldn't have been falsified.Her fingers trembled uncontrollably. Melissa staggered backward, her back against the wall, unable to contain the shivers running through her body. Elaine was really her daughter.She was the same daughter she had heartlessly abandoned in the wilderness during that winter, the daughter she had forsaken in her ruthless quest for revenge against Tatum.

    More than an hour later, Elaine woke up. When she opened her eyes, there were people standing around her hospital bed. She blinked and felt some discomfort in her shoulder. Her brow furrowed slightly.Aaron, anxious, immediately asked, "What's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?"Elaine shook her head. "I'm okay. Thanks for worrying."She remembered Calvin, the man who had pushed her away, and asked anxiously, "How is Calvin?"She tried to sit up but was gently restrained by Sylvia. "Don't worry; he's okay. He has a broken leg, but the other injuries aren't too severe."Elaine, reassured about Calvin's condition, patted her stomach. "Oh, yes, I almost forgot about the baby."Aaron stopped her from moving further, saying, "The doctor said you should try to move as little as possible. Don't forget, there's a baby in your belly."Elaine rested back down.Over the next few days, Aaron not only took care of Elaine but also investigated why the driver had veered toward her. He found

Tatum suddenly looked up, a hint of panic in his eyes, and slowly stood up from the sofa. It was indeed Melissa returning. She was holding her phone and talking on the phone, saying, "Don't worry, as long as you complete this task for me, I promise to send your wife and child abroad. Yes, the two million deposits have been transferred to your wife's account. I'm waiting for good news from you. Remember my requirements, go all the way!" Then she hung up and walked into the house. "Melissa!" Tatum looked at the weary woman before him. If only he hadn't insisted on leaving all those years ago... "You..." Melissa looked at the person before her, and a vague image in her mind became clearer, merging with the man before her as if he were the man from her hallucinations.
