"Look, is there anything you like? There are clothes on the first floor, some bags on the second floor, and shoes on the third floor." Archie looked down and said to Leona. "It's rare to be able to go shopping, do you like it? Just take what you want, no need to save for me."If Archie's previous behavior only made one group of women jealous, the following words immediately made the women present jealous and scream!Who is this woman? Why was the CEO being so nice to her? Oh my God, how unbelievable! Mr. Archie, who had never been gentle to a woman, was now speaking such gentle and caring words!Leona knew that Archie wanted to relax, so she thought about it and said, "Okay, then I'll take as much as I want."Archie smiled and nodded. "Other brands are fine too."Leona smiled gently and nodded and started walking around.Two trained salesgirls followed her, pointing out the features and uniqueness of the clothes from time to time in a soft voice. Leona just listened and had no intenti
"Forget it, I don't want coffee anymore. Just give me a glass of water." Dona took out her wallet to pay, but Archie had already given her cash."Three glasses of water and the rest is your tip." Archie said in a cold voice.The waiter took a glance at the cash Archie gave him, then quickly put it away and left.Dona looked at Archie and Leona curiously and said, "I'm really curious now, what is your relationship? Mr. Archie, you have now signed a contract with our company. Don't worry about me bothering you again, this secret will be revealed in the end, right?""Secret?" Archie raised his eyebrows slightly, turned to Leona and said, "In that case, it depends on whether my wife is willing to reveal this secret!""Madam? Please explain everything."Dona couldn't help but raise her voice slightly and looked at Leona with an incredulous expression. "He called you Madam?"Leona gave Archie a sharp look.Didn't he tell herself that they were just a contract couple and wouldn't be publiciz
Sure enough, Archie had no intention of going to the other room to rest.Seeing Leona still in a daze, Archie's eyes lit up."What are you still doing? Not sleeping?" Archie lay there, his strong and muscular body wrapped in a pure white blanket, indescribable.Leona felt her ears going red.He didn't take off all his clothes during the day! Whereas tonight his body was only wrapped in a blanket. Leona was looking after a handsome man..."We came in a hurry and only one master bedroom is empty here. This villa is mine and I have the right to sleep in any room." Archie spoke softly, raised his eyes, and light streamed into the corners of his charming eyes. "There is no sofa here. If you don't care about the child in your stomach, feel free to sleep on the floor, I don't mind!"Sleep on the floor? Hum hum, I don't want to!Leona lay angrily on the other side.Right, she was a pregnant woman now, and she must not make any mistakes! She would never sleep on the ground!After all, she was
After breakfast, she called Dona. Dona had been waiting for a long time.Leona didn't dare to let Dona wait too long, so she quickly met Dona again, accompanied by her driver.Leona asked the driver to come back and she would take a taxi home. She always felt uncomfortable with the driver by her side.The night ended, and Dona still couldn't accept the reality in front of her. Archie was married! And he was going to be a father!Dona folded her arms and looked at Leona, who was wearing casual clothes, and said. "I always thought that Archie would never get married in this life, but I didn't expect, I didn't expect that they would do it in one step, buy one get one free! They are so cool! As a young lady of the Manley Family Group, you can still be humble!"Leona had a helpless look on her face. She married Archie not out of love at all, but simply because... Forget it, it's better not to say such things. It's not good anyway."Let's go shopping! It's my first time shopping in Salisbur
At that time, Dona came from outside with a list.Dona didn't know the CEO's wife, so naturally she didn't give a good face and said. "That's so easy to say! Do you know how dangerous it is right now? If that reckless driver hits you in the stomach instead of your leg, do you think this child can be saved?""Dona..." Leona was afraid that Dona's words would make the CEO's wife unhappy, so she immediately grabbed Dona's clothes with her hands and pulled them gently.At that moment, someone from outside rushed in like a whirlwind. Only Leona was in sight. He rushed over with quick steps, grabbed Leona's hand and asked in a loud voice. "Are you... are you okay?"Archie's eyes could not hide his worry and fear, to the point that he did not even see the two light bulbs standing beside him."I'm fine..." Leona looked at Archie, and looked to the side! It was the CEO's wife!Archie thought Leona was asking him to look at her belly, so the next second he put his handsome face on Leona's belly
When Archie was abroad, he was very familiar with the name Xavier.Many people told Archie that he was an entrepreneur with a calm mind and outstanding appearance.In just five years, the Xavier family has grown from a family that was almost bankrupt to a family that can share with the world, on par with the Manley family.You should know that the Manleys have a rich heritage and foundation.What if a man on par with the Manleys wasn't so extraordinary?Although Archie didn't find Leona so memorable, he subconsciously didn't want Xavier to see Leona at all.He always had a strange feeling that if Xavier saw Leona, he would lose her...Loss ......Why did he suddenly get such an idea?If he never got it, why should he lose it?But this word deeply touched Archie's heart and could not be broken.No, he would never allow it!"No need! Mr. Xavier is very busy, there's no need to worry about such trivial things." Archie left the room, leaving only Leona. "Madam is not feeling well, so she
"Good boy, I really wronged you today!" The CEO's wife said with red eyes. "It was a dangerous day, thank God for the blessings, thank you for being okay."The CEO and his wife have always loved each other. Seeing his wife so emotional made the CEO's attitude towards Leona even better. "Our family doctor has been waiting for a long time, why not let him examine you first?"The woman nodded quickly. "Yes, yes, you should check your body first!"Leona had no choice but to follow the doctor into the inner room for a more detailed examination.A few moments later, the doctor said with a smile. "You are in good health! However, you were a little too anxious at first, so you should calm down. It will be good for the child's growth and development."Leona smiled bitterly.Wasn't she too worried at first?Disappointed, abandoned by her ex-boyfriend, a lot of chaos at home, plus Oriana's betrayal.It was strange that she was feeling well."Thank you!" Leona smiled at the other party.After bot
"Mr. Xavier, I really didn't expect to meet you here! After all, Salisbury is where the Manley family lives. When Mr. Xavier comes, the Manley family should host him! How could we let Mr. Xavier host us?" Archie's warm voice sounded from the door. Sure enough, he arrived before the others.Xavier looked up to see Archie coming towards him."Mr. Manley is too polite! I should have apologized to Mr. Manley and your wife!" Xavier reached out to shake Archie's hand. "We made the mistake! We should be the ones apologizing!"Archie shook hands with Xavier and immediately realized that the rank of the other party was indeed equal to his own rank!Xavier was secretly surprised.He was afraid that Archie was much scarier than he thought!This man always had a cold aura that made people subconsciously feel scared. If his aura wasn't strong enough, he would be like the others, suppressed by his strong and submissive aura, right?Archie was also surprised back then.When he was abroad, when he he
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
