Leona returned to the room. Before she could greet the CEO and his wife, she saw Archie standing in the room.Why was he here?Leona was stunned.Didn't he have any business today?Why was he here?"I..." Leona opened her mouth and saw the anger in Archie's eyes, and all her next words were stuck in her stomach."CEO, Madam, I'm really sorry. Leona's health is not good. The doctor told her to get enough rest, so I didn't ask her to come with me! It's my fault. CEO and Madam, I hope you don't mind." Archie said very politely. "I apologize! May I take her back to rest now?""Of course. This is all due to our negligence!" The CEO immediately responded in kind.In the eyes of the CEO and his wife, this was a clear demonstration of marital love!However, Leona clearly saw the puddle of anger in Archie's eyes"What's wrong with him? Isn't it because of him and the Manley Company that I came here to meet with the CEO and his wife?" thought Leona."In that case, I'll say goodbye! I'll definit
After arriving at the hospital, Leona returned to her room and lay on her bed, rolling around, unable to sleep.So many things had happened today that Leona was confused.She had no idea what was going on at home.She had been married for days, was her mother still suffering at home?According to the agreement, she could only return home after helping Manley Company successfully cooperate with the Korean CEO and his wife.But now...Leona sighed in her heart."Mom, can you hold out a little longer? When I save up enough money, I'll definitely save you from a place that eats people without spitting out their bones!" she muttered.Feeling very angry, Leona lay down on the bed. After tossing and turning, she slowly started to get sleepy, her eyelids closed, and slowly fell asleep.She didn't know how long she had slept, but Leona woke up to the hunger pangs of her rumbling stomach.When she opened her eyes, it was already dark outside."Ah, I guess there won't be any food in the hospital
This morning was normal. Why did he seem like a different person during the day and night?"What?" Archie frowned slightly, the corners of his eyes blocking out the light shimmering under his eyes. "Didn't you say you wanted to take a walk?"She just wanted to take a quiet walk alone!Leona really didn't have the courage to shout these words.Will Archie change his mind?"It's okay! You've had a hard day, you'd better have a good dinner. I can take a walk by myself." Leona replied in a low voice while bowing her head.To go home early and see her mother, she even had to hold back a groan."Really?" Archie subconsciously raised the corners of his mouth, his eyes turned to Leona's face and looked into her eyes.As the eyes of several women passing by in the vicinity fell on Archie, they felt as if they had been doused with super glue and couldn't look away.But Archie's eyes were only on Leona.The eyes of the women immediately turned to Leona!What? The perfect guy wants to take a walk
She immediately let go of his hand in a panic, scratched her hair uncomfortably, and said, "What the heck... thank you! No matter what, I still want to thank you properly! By the way, it's getting late, you should go back early! It's time for me to go back and rest...""Yes." Archie replied, but his body remained motionless.Just as Leona was about to remind Archie to return to the villa to rest, Daniel finally appeared next to him. "Sir, Miss, the room has been rearranged, you can rest now."The room has been rearranged?What was the meaning of this sentence?"Would you like to continue?" Archie lowered his head and looked at Leona.A walk... what was the walk again?The anger was gone, gone, gone!Leona turned around and walked happily back to the hospital. Archie followed her and casually returned to the ward.As soon as she entered the door, Leona almost thought she had gone to the wrong place!Leona walked out of the door, then raised her head to confirm her room number again.Wh
Leona stared at the boring computer screen for a while and then started yawning.Leona didn't dare to sleep, but she couldn't stand the fight between her eyes.After Archie typed the last character, he turned around and saw Leona lying on the table, sound asleep.After Archie sent the last email, he closed the computer, turned around and walked over to Leona, picked her up and carried her to the side.He placed her gently on the bed.Archie touched his finger to Leona's lips, first intending to wipe away Leona's drool.He didn't know what Leona was dreaming about. When Archie's finger touched her lips, she couldn't help but stick out her pink tongue and lick it gently...Archie's whole body froze, as if he had been struck by lightning!His eyes suddenly became deeper!Archie didn't hesitate this time, he lowered his head and kissed that naughty purple tongue.Hmm... seems a little sweeter than expected..."Hmm..." Leona showed signs of waking up and Archie suddenly released her.Archi
Leona sat in the car. She had been feeling nervous ever since she entered the village.How are you, Mom?Every time she called, her mother always gave her good news, not bad.Leona could only feel relieved when she saw with her own eyes that her mother's life was fine.Archie's blue eyes lifted slightly and he squinted at Leona, who had a troubled expression on her face, with an unclear meaning.Daniel drove slowly forward, following the convoy with headphones in his ears, listening to the report from the front."Sir, ma'am, the motorcade has arrived. Bertha's family is coming out to welcome us!" After listening to the team members' reports, Daniel whispered. "Madam, do you need to get out of the car and walk?"Common sense said that Leona should walk to the front door of the Bertha family home. That was the rule in their village.When a new daughter-in-law came to visit, he had to follow the village rules.But... because this son-in-law's background was so strong, the Bertha family r
Archie said calmly. "Yes, Mom. Today we brought mom a cook and a nice meal. Mom has been busy all her life and it's time to enjoy some peace and happiness! How about tasting the delicious food your son-in-law brought?"Hearing Archie's words, Bertha immediately lit up and said with a smile. "Ah, why is that so embarrassing? Since my daughter and son-in-law are interested, you can rest today!"Hearing Bertha's words, Leona's mother was greatly relieved.Bertha looked at Leona's mother meaningfully, and subconsciously Leona's mother's back stiffened."Leona, you haven't talked to your mother for a long time. I am here. You and your mother can rest." Archie saw that Leona's mother seemed to want to say something to Leona and immediately said with great concern. "Just ask Daniel if you need anything.""All right." Leona was very happy. She really wanted to say so many things to her mother that she didn't see Archie's meaningful expression.Leona took her mother by the hand and turned arou
Bertha's family is so oppressive!What a bully!Leona felt like she was holding her breath in her lungs.Here she couldn't breathe!When Leona's mother saw the change in Leona's expression, she was shocked. She immediately patted Leona's chest. "Leona, don't scare mom! Leona, what's wrong with you?"Seeing her worried mother's tears about to fall, Leona took a deep breath and spat out the cloudy air that had accumulated in her chest!"Mom, how much money should we pay our uncles, aunts, and their families?" Leona knew she probably couldn't wait until the child was born."I'll find a way to give you $32,000 and pay off my uncle's debt. How about you come live with me in the city?" Leona looked longingly at her mother. As difficult as it was, she was not afraid. She was only worried that her mother would be harassed at home!"How could I! Your grandmother is getting old, and I still have to wash clothes, cook, and take care of your grandmother at home! After all, it was your father who
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
