Oliver was momentarily surprised by her sudden actions but quickly regained his composure. With a calm expression, he said, "Miss Chiyoko, have you forgotten the punishment from before?"At this moment, Chiyoko couldn't recall any punishment. Her heart had been stirred by Oliver's presence. A year ago, she had been captivated by Oliver's gentleness and elegance, and after more than a year, she found herself unable to resist this fatal temptation. If blame were to be placed, it could only be on Oliver's overwhelming perfection!Unable to sense warmth in Maxwell, she always found it in Oliver, especially after enduring Maxwell's neglect for so long. The frustration in her heart had reached an unbearable point, and at that moment, Oliver, who looked exactly like Maxwell but knew how to cherish others, appeared at the right time!"Oliver, you finally appeared..." Chiyoko clung tightly to him, sobbing.Oliver raised his hand, the warm palm gently pressing against her back, mocking as he sa
At this critical moment, Maxwell still considered the safety of their baby. Too frequent activities in bed might be too much for Flora, and the baby might protest. So, he restrained himself, and had to suppress the resentment in his heart and digest it on his own.Flora, kissed until she felt ticklish several times, gazed at his fiercely resolute face, breathing lightly with her slightly open mouth. Her small face still bore an expression of confusion, not understanding why he had come in silently and suddenly pressed her onto the bed to kiss her passionately.There were many things about him that Flora didn't understand, so she didn't intend to inquire further. After sitting up from the bed, she picked up the phone he had thrown down on the table and dialed to ask Betty to prepare a midnight snack for Maxwell. After hanging up the phone, she fell into silence.After a moment of silence, Flora finally couldn't help but ask, "What's gotten into you again?" Originally, she wanted to ask
Kevin was taken aback. In truth, he was indeed growing more attached to W City. However, his mother's health was paramount, so he had to reluctantly agree with a nod. He reassured, "Mom, as long as you're okay, I'll accompany you back to Germany. We can let someone else manage the branch.""Really?" Mrs. Davis asked joyfully, not expecting Kevin to agree so easily.Kevin nodded, smiling, "Of course, the branch is already on the right track, and it's time for us to return to Germany.""That's good." Mrs. Davis nodded in relief and then asked, "By the way, Kevin, how did the bidding in City A go? Was it smooth? Are we likely to win?""Quite smoothly," Kevin thought Mrs. Davis was concerned about the outcome and hurried to appease her, "An executive from the Smith Family Group sold the minimum bid to us, so we should easily secure the project." Although the means were a bit underhanded, as long as it struck a blow to Maxwell, it was acceptable. In the business world, no one was holier th
Flora felt a bit uneasy under his scrutiny. She chuckled and asked, "Second Young Master, are you planning to take Little Young Master out?" She knew that Robin must be excited because there was either something to eat or something fun.Indeed, Robin enthusiastically boasted, "Second Brother is going to accompany me to the amusement park. Flora, do you want to come? Let's go together!"Robin extended a warm invitation, and only Flora would accompany him. Perhaps it was because of their close ages. However, he seemed to have overlooked one thing—Flora was pregnant and couldn't accompany him.Just hearing the words "amusement park" activated every cell in Flora's body. But... could she go out? Without Maxwell's approval, she dared not take a single step outside the mansion, especially with Oliver present. The strange behavior of Maxwell from last night was still fresh in her memory. If he found out she went to the amusement park with Oliver, he might do something drastic.Oliver looked
Although the breakfast was sumptuous, Flora found it tasteless. When she put down her fork, Oliver raised an eyebrow and reminded her, "Eating more will be beneficial for the baby, you know?"Flora blushed slightly. She hadn't expected Oliver to already know about her pregnancy, carrying the child of the Smith Family's Big Young Master. The shame she felt in front of anyone was immense, and it was even worse in front of Oliver. She lowered her head and said, "I know.""Now that you know, finish the breakfast on your plate," Oliver reminded, his tone carrying a faint coldness.Flora was surprised. Why, like Maxwell, did he want to force her to eat more? Was it out of concern?What else could it be besides concern? Flora sighed, picked up the fork, and continued eating the remaining food on her plate. Only when she had finished the breakfast did she put down the utensils, then looked at Oliver's satisfied expression, puzzled.After finishing breakfast, they headed straight to the amusem
Until it was almost dark, Robin and Flora finally decided to head home, satisfied with their day. Oliver, who had been accompanying them the whole time, showed no signs of impatience. He not only kept an eye on the little boy but also had to watch out for Flora, discouraging her from making any strenuous movements.After all, she was a pregnant woman, and he was genuinely worried that her indulgence in play might harm the baby.Tired from playing, Robin clamored for Oliver to carry him. Oliver had no objections, slightly bending over, and Robin jumped on his back.Seeing this scene, Flora rolled her eyes sarcastically and said, "You're already so grown up, and you still want someone to carry you?" She then turned to Oliver and added, "Second Young Master, only you spoil him like this, directly spoiling him rotten.""None of your business! You can ask Second Brother to carry you back too!" Robin raised his head proudly and retorted.Flora shrugged, made a face at him, and then ignored
A cold smile spread across Oliver's lips as he gazed at her and said with a mocking tone, "What does Miss Chiyoko think I should do? Should I snatch Flora from Maxwell's hands? Or do you have another plan?""If you truly love her, why not snatch her away? After all, she and Maxwell are not meant to be, right?" Chiyoko looked at him, her heart filled with strong anticipation.Yes, since she had chosen Maxwell, she could use Oliver to eliminate Flora, who was a constant source of concern for her. Otherwise, she couldn't calm down, unable to believe that Maxwell would obey Mrs. Smith and marry her."If I were going to snatch, shouldn't I have snatched you back a year and a half ago? Even if a year and a half ago was not possible, what about today? I still have a chance, right?" Oliver laughed wickedly, staring at the beautiful face before him.Chiyoko blushed, shyly lowering her gaze, and whispered, "I'm sorry, Oliver. I love Maxwell, I love only him. I shouldn't have tempted you out of
Maxwell has been away from home for three days. Flora, feeling bored, paced around the bedroom, thinking indignantly, "That guy has been gone for three days without a word. He must have been lured by some beautiful woman and can't find his way home."She hated men who stayed out all night the most! Although she was just a person without a status, she was carrying his child after all. He could be so indifferent to her!Just as she was cursing in her heart, a knocking sound suddenly came from the door, followed by Betty pushing the door open. She turned to the person outside and said, "Bring in the piano.""All right." Several uniformed personnel carried large and small boxes into the room. They nodded in acknowledgment when they saw Flora."Hey, what are you guys doing? What's so big?" Flora exclaimed, dodging to the corner to avoid these large items.Betty smiled and said, "Flora, this is the piano that Big Young Master bought for you. It's said to be the best piano from the Lulu Musi
