"We'll take you home." Archie smiled gently, "A son-in-law is also half a man, when something like this happens, how can a boy not do anything?"Leona immediately turned around and smiled gratefully at Archie.Although they were only a contract couple, Archie had already done a lot!This matter should have nothing to do with him, he could have just stood by and watched!But he still regarded this matter as his own problem to solve.This was already beyond the scope of the contract.Leona turned her head and looked up, "Mom, let's go home!""Alright!" Leona's mother shed a little tear from being moved by her son-in-law, Archie.In times of betrayal, at least she wasn't alone.Archie drove himself this time, checking Leona and her mother's expressions in the reverse mirror along the way.Leona looked down, and there seemed to be a lot of consideration in her eyes.Leona's mother's expression looked blank.Perhaps because she still didn't know how to deal with her husband who had betraye
She never expected that the first thing she would encounter when she returned home was not questioning her husband, but being slandered.Jack and Bertha had known Rose's character for a long time, and when they saw Rose so angry that she was speechless, they threw dirt on Rose's head that had been spiked with various oils and vinegar.Leona couldn't sit still when she saw this!Archie squeezed Leona's hand and said in a low voice, "Calm down! The more they slander, the stronger the backlash will be in a moment! Don't you want Mom to be completely relieved? This could be a good opportunity!"Leona's eyes lit up!Yes, Archie was right!The more dirty water the Bertha family threw at her now, the greater Mother's dislike for the Bertha family became.When they had pushed her to the breaking point, she would be completely disillusioned with the Bertha family and would never defend them again!Sure enough, amidst Bertha and Jack's accusations, Rose's eyes grew even colder.Although she had
"Are you talking about the money the Manleys gave us before we got married, or are you talking about the amount of money and the villa the Manleys gave us after I gave birth?" Leona stared sarcastically at Bertha's family, looking at each of them as if they were taking it for granted, with no expression of shame, Leona knew that this family was rotten to the core.Even with the dowry money they could be greedy, how could they be considered good?Bertha took over the conversation and said, "That money was originally the money your in-laws gave to Bertha's family!""What money was given to Bertha's family?" Leona could actually tolerate it, but intimidating her mother was absolutely intolerable!"Your grandmother said that this money was given to Bertha's family, Bertha's family has raised you for so many years, can't they get the interest back?" Bertha said quietly."Oh, so this money is the money the Manley family gave me?" Leona straightened out her grandmother's words, step by step.
"Dad..." Leona turned to face her stepfather.Yes, now she really regarded Jack as her stepfather.Just moments ago she had publicly drawn a line in the sand and severed their relationship!"Don't call me that, I don't want to." Jack said with a cold snort, "Alright, now that this marriage is over, I'll leave first, if nothing else! I've already thrown away all your things for you, so don't come back!"Hearing Jack's heartbreaking words, Leona laughed along with her mother. Although a little cloud of sadness crossed their eyes.Sure enough, they crossed the river and broke the bridge...Jack turned and walked away, never looking at the few people again, except to smile at Archie."Mom, don't be afraid! Archie already bought you a house! We have somewhere to go." Leona, afraid that her mother would be sad, hurriedly said, "Archie told everyone to clean up today, so we can move in today."Rose was stunned, and when she saw Archie, her eyes filled with gratitude.After all, her son-in-la
Archie looked at Leona's face, suddenly hating the business trips he had to take.In the past, all his energy had been devoted to his work, and business trips were commonplace for him.But at this moment, he looked at Leona calmly, and he couldn't wait to stop traveling from now on.Leona was a little nervous when Archie looked at her and quickly lowered her head to avoid Archie's gaze.She always felt that Archie's eyes were strange, as if there were extra emotions there that she couldn't understand.Leona kept reminding herself inwardly. Leona, you have to calm down! You must be sober! Don't let Archie's beauty deceive you! You're just a contract partner with him, and he's only doing you a favor for the sake of a smooth contract! You must not deceive yourself!With this mental construction, Leona was finally able to calm down.Leona defused her emotions and replied, "Okay, leave early and go home early."Not getting another answer from Leona, a hint of disappointment appeared under
Since he came back from the hospital, he was still quite normal.When he left, Leona didn't see how angry he was.After all, she hadn't said anything to anger him, had she?However, Daniel interpreted him departure from her hometown as a gamble, so he continued, "Mr. Archie actually had to leave at 6 o'clock that morning, he had to go to negotiate a very important contract with Saudi Arabia, but for your sake, Mr. Archie postponed it until the afternoon."Leona's eyes glazed over.He always looked like he was about to say something that day, could it be that he wanted to talk to herself about this?Really, if you have something to say, why stutter, you're not a child anymore.Leona didn't dare to say it and could only nod her head and reply, "Understood."After saying that, Leona turned around and left.Daniel looked at Leona's back with concern, why did he feel that Leona didn't know anything?When the next block finished making a scene, she heard a group of people jeering and ringin
Archie sighed softly in his heart.Was it that if he didn't call and text her, she would never take the initiative to call and text him?Right, it was a heartless little thing.Archie was suddenly struck by this thought in his head.Why did he suddenly think like that?"Sir, is your phone broken? Do I have to replace it for you?" Owen asked carefully.Archie raised the corners of his eyes and snorted coldly.Owen rubbed his nose, not knowing where he misspoke.Owen complained inwardly, he was only sent by Archie to stay for a few weeks, why was Archie's attitude different when he returned?Daniel followed Archie all that time, what really happened?Archie replied with a frown, "No need, if anyone calls this number or sends a message, please let me know immediately."After saying these words, Archie stood up and walked out.Archie hadn't taken more than two steps when he heard his cell phone beep, not waiting for Owen to open his mouth to remind him, Archie rushed over with arrow strid
Fortunately, Daniel reminded her that she should instruct Archie not to buy anything too fancy, otherwise, her mother would definitely not accept it.Daniel really deserved to be the most capable assistant by Archie's side, no wonder Archie would still keep Daniel by his side, he thought things through carefully.Leona turned around and picked up her cell phone again, continuing to send messages to Archie. "Well, I forgot to remind you, don't choose a style that's too fancy, or Mom won't get used to it. Right, have you eaten yet? It's late here and I don't know what time it is over there."Archie had waited until he was fussy, and his patience had reached its limit.Just when he broke his patience and raised his cell phone to slam it down, the sound of a long-lost text message suddenly sounded.Archie broke through the dark clouds to see the sunlight in the next second, quickly picked up his cell phone, and tapped on the message.The previous words were automatically filtered out, and
6 months later...At the time, Jovanka's family didn't dare tell Leona that she was Jovanka's twin sister, as they feared it would affect the development of the fetus.Now Leona was 9 months pregnant and she was ready to give birth.That's when they dared to tell Leona who she really was.When Leona found out, she was speechless for a few days.She was a little stressed out and it caused her to have contractions.Archie rushed her to the hospital.* * * Archie and Leona were separated by a door.The nurses and doctors worked together to give Leona the drugs to induce labor.Everyone was busy, constantly monitoring various devices and closely observing the changes in every organ in Leona's body.Leona lay on the bed. Within minutes of the injection being inserted into her body, she felt an excruciating pain in her abdomen.Leona screamed in pain in the ward. This drug speeds up the labor process and shortens the duration of labor pains.The mother's normal contractions gradually becam
The next day, Leona invited Dona to accompany her to meet Jovanka's family.Leona wore a more formal light blue dress with her hair in a bun.The jewelry she chose was very elegant.Dona couldn't help but admire her, "Leona, you're very suitable to wear such an elegant outfit, it's beautiful! The design of this dress is so good, if you didn't look closely, you wouldn't know you were pregnant."Leona smiled and replied, "Yes, I like this skirt too."Dona took the initiative to wear Leona's bracelet.A small bracelet, not very eye-catching, but this simple little look was very pretty.Xavier called, "Have you had breakfast? I'll be waiting at the door."Dona made a face as if it was true and said, "No wonder others say that most women who meet Xavier fall in love with him. Such a warm and caring man, you can't even think of not liking him!""Alright, we'll be right out." Leona didn't listen to what Dona said and hung up the phone quickly, saying to Dona, "You! If you like him, he's your
After accompanying her mother shopping and driving her home, Leona sat on the sofa and wanted to take a nap.The phone rang softly.Leona looked at it and it was Xavier.Leona picked up the phone, "Hello?"Xavier's voice was heard on the phone, "Leona, I'm really sorry! Jovanka's family would like to invite you to be their guest, what do you think?"To be the guest of the Jovanka family?Leona was stunned.Isn't that too serious?Leona hesitated a little.Then Xavier said on the phone, "You don't need to make up your mind now. There will be a party for three days here. So you can take some time to think about it."After hanging up the phone, there was no drowsiness at all.Leona was a little confused about what Jovanka's family meant.After hanging up from Leona, Xavier immediately called Jovanka's family.Knowing that Leona did not accept the invitation from Jovanka's family, Jovanka's father and mother became worried and immediately looked for an excuse to go home to discuss the cou
"Mother, didn't I tell you? I don't care who I am at all. It's enough that I only have you as my mother! Ever since I was little, you worked hard to raise me by yourself, I don't need anyone else to protect me, I just want my mother to be happy." Leona interrupted Rose's words and said, "After all these years, ordinary days come and go, there's nothing wrong with that! I'm very happy."Rose smiled bitterly, "Actually, I found you that night, abandoned on the grass by the roadside with a bloodstained placenta, obviously just born. But that little blanket wrapped around you that I've always kept, maybe it's the proof you need to find your family!"Leona's body trembled.Sensing Leona's resistance, Rose stopped and said nothing. "Alright, I won't say anything if you don't want to hear it. I'm sorry I lied to you because I was afraid of losing you."Leona didn't answer, she lowered her head and closed her eyes.No matter what her true identity was, she also didn't want to know who her bio
"Find some people to serve her." Archie's slender fingers crossed over the gun in his hand, "Tell those bums that if they stay inside this place for more than ten minutes, give them ten thousand dollars."Hearing Archie's words, another group of bums rushed towards Rick's body.As for Rick and the small group of gangsters that Oriana found, they had long since been subdued and were kneeling on the side waiting to be disposed of.Rose was also saved.Archie frowned slightly, "Send her to the hospital for examination."Worried about Leona, Rose nodded at Archie and left immediately.At that moment, someone stood carefully in front of Archie.Owen explained in a low voice, "He's the one who secretly changed Miss's drink."The corner of Archie's mouth slowly raised as the gun in his hand pointed at the person's chest.The person was so frightened that he immediately knelt in front of Archie, trembling and shouting, "I did what you said! Please forgive me! I didn't know that the person Ric
As soon as Rose heard that Leona wanted to exchange her for her, she shook her head desperately, "Leona, don't! Leona, you can't do that for me! Leona, you're actually..."Rose said a sentence that implied a secret.But right now no one was interested in hearing this secret from her.Rose's words were immediately cut off by Oriana. "Enough! I'm tired of seeing mother and daughter love! Leona, neither you nor your mother will leave here today!"Of course Leona couldn't leave.Because she and Rick had been sedated.After the drug took effect, Rick would sleep with Leona.At that time Oriana would take a picture of her...Hahaha...Leona, you made me do this!Wait, why does my whole body feel hot...The face of Rick, who was standing beside her, suddenly changed drastically as well!He immediately turned his head and subconsciously looked at Oriana."You... drugged her?" Rick stared at Oriana in disbelief.Leona was instantly taken aback by the two people's change in attitude and immedia
Rose stared blankly at Rick, she felt that her vision had been refreshed!Leona's ex-boyfriend had even betrayed Leona together with her best friend?Rick held Oriana's waist from behind."What are you doing?" Oriana asked impatiently and tried to push Rick away.Rick brutally hugged Oriana and refused to let go, "This is what we agreed! If you get the money, you have to come with me! Oriana, I did what you asked! What's wrong with you, with money in hand, you want to dump me?"Oriana's face lowered.Those words were just her ruse to deceive Rick.Without Rick's help, she wouldn't have been able to find the right people in London to help her carry out the kidnapping and extortion quickly.Rick had been in London for several years, and he knew several people who were used to doing this.Rick hugged her tighter and his bad smelling mouth kissed Oriana's face."What are you afraid of? You're going to be my wife, sooner or later! I've been eyeing you for years and you have to shove Leona
Marco saw that Leona's face looked bad and immediately asked excitedly, "Miss, what's wrong with you? Are you not feeling well?"Leona's body staggered and she immediately clung to Marco, bit her lip and said, "Marco, how much money can I take in this house?"Marco hesitated and said, "Miss, this matter is not under my control. Didn't Mr. Archie give you a credit card? It's a card that can be used indefinitely, and if you need cash, you can get cash!"Leona gritted her teeth and said to her assistant, "Have the driver prepare the car, I'll be out for a while!"It wasn't long before Leona left in her car.When she found a bank, Leona went in with her credit card and prepared to withdraw cash.The first time her account changed, Archie noticed."Tell the bank to give the full amount as requested." Archie said. "Don't worry, the person I left by Leona's side, how could there be a three-legged cat?" The corners of Archie's mouth lifted slightly, "Oriana did give me a little surprise this
"What did you say?!" Archie was stunned, "You said the baby can kick?"A sweetness appeared in Leona's heart as she nodded gently, "Hmm. Since yesterday, the child has started to have fetal movements!""Quickly call a doctor." The butler immediately ordered.Archie didn't care about the food, pulled Leona to sit down, and only knelt on one leg, carefully with an agitated expression, then slowly pressed his ear against Leona's stomach.At that moment, the little troublemaker in her stomach moved again and kicked Archie's ear.Archie felt a subtle throbbing.This was his son!This was his son with Leona!A feeling of pride and happiness immediately came over him!Leona looked at Archie, who was leaning on her stomach with a complicated expression, and suddenly had mixed feelings, not knowing what to say.Archie, who was very image-conscious, ignored the presence of so many people for the first time and knelt on one knee to listen to her stomach.She should be very excited, right?"I hea
