She was puzzled about why he called her so many times.She thought, "Does he want to talk with me about something?"Marilyn called Julian.Julian was playing computer games when he saw Marilyn's call. He was shocked and stopped playing.He glanced at Malcolm, who had a gloomy face opposite him and quickly picked up Marilyn's call."Hello! Ms. Chapman."When Malcolm heard these words, he suddenly looked at Julian.Marilyn said apologetically, "Mr. Munoz, I'm sorry. I was a little busy tonight, so I switched my phone to silent mode. I didn't receive your call. Is there anything you need?""It's okay, Ms. Chapman. I know that you moved to a new house. As your colleague, I want to send you some gifts. I have already bought the gifts. Ms. Chapman, give me the address. I will ask someone to send the things over tomorrow."When Marilyn heard that, she was stunned. "Mr. Munoz, you don't need to...""Ms. Chapman, we are co
He had just bathed, and his black hair was a little messy. He looked even more handsome and wild.His handsome face was serious now. There was coldness and indifference between his eyebrows as he hesitated.Suddenly, he made up his mind, his slender fingers quickly tapping the mobile phone keyboard."Lynn, are you asleep?"After sending the message, Malcolm nervously waited for Marilyn's message.Marilyn just sent a message to Margie.She saw that her phone screen immediately lit up.When she saw that it was Malcolm, she was a little surprised. She took a look at it.Looking at the words that Malcolm sent over, Marilyn felt very conflicted.In fact, by now, she had known about Malcolm's thoughts.She bit her lower lip, picked up her phone, and quickly typed a line of words."Mr. Lowe, I am going to sleep. Good night."Malcolm closed his eyes. When he heard the notification sound, he quickly opened hi
He thought that he could let go easily, but he was wrong. When he thought of Denise's tears, he could not help but come to find her.However, he did not dare to come to her because he was afraid that he would make her even sadder.This morning, he had something to do and was about to pass by Denise's door. He could not help but want to come and see her.At this time, it was a red light.Velma was driving Debbie to see a friend.The car stopped at the red light intersection and Velma glanced around. This was near Denise's home.She suddenly saw a familiar car and the car number.Velma frowned and said in surprise, "Mom, that is Jacob's car. Did he come to find Denise?"Debbie, who was looking down at her phone, immediately looked up and saw that it was her son's car.Her face, which was covered with exquisite makeup, instantly clouded over.She said angrily, "Velma, park the car by the side. It seems that Jacob did
Looking at Denise in fear, Marilyn felt like seeing herself seven years ago.In front of the Chambers family, she would become very careful about her every movement, every expression, every look, and even breathing.She knew very well the fear in Denise's heart. Denise was pregnant and she could not let Denise get hurt.Debbie snorted and looked at Marilyn with contempt, "With money, I can indeed trample on the self-esteem of people like you. Only after being taught a lesson will you know what you deserve and what you can't afford."Even if Malcolm does not marry Velma, he won't marry a shameless woman like you who has a child out of wedlock."Marilyn had heard a lot of words like that. She was almost numb.But when she heard that, she still felt upset. However, she still looked at Debbie with a smile on her face."What kind of people are we?" Marilyn asked word by word as she stared at Debbie with her clear eyes.Her voice cha
"Mom..." Velma looked at Debbie from behind with a gloomy face. She had no chance to speak just now.She thought, "Marilyn, you actually dared to call me a dog!Good job!I am not as good at words as you, but I am more ruthless than you in secret!"She stomped her feet angrily and left with Debbie.Marilyn and Denise left the alley.Denise brought her to the market.Marilyn did not know the way. With Denise leading the way, she was not worried.Denise looked at her apologetically. "Lynn, I'm sorry! You suffered because of me today."She had always felt sorry for the slap that Marilyn had taken for her.Marilyn smiled and glanced at her, "Denise, it's okay. Moreover, a person will be stronger after suffering. I didn't suffer because of you. You don't have to feel guilty! Aren't we friends?"Friends share happiness and hardship together." Marilyn smiled. Now, she could laugh over many things.In fact,
Elvira looked at Marilyn lovingly, "Silly girl, the Remington family is also prestigious in Fielddell. They have two sons and a daughter. Everyone knows it and even some news have mentioned it."Although I don't know Jacob, I have heard of him. I am surprised that Denise's baby is his."When Marilyn heard that, all the previous suspicions in her heart were dispelled.She had never asked Elvira about the past. Elvira regarded Marilyn as her biological daughter, and if Elvira wanted, she would tell one day.Elvira looked at Marilyn's face with pity.She thought for a moment and asked, "Lynn, Mrs. Remington hit you. You..."Elvira wanted to say something but stopped. With Marilyn's temper, if Debbie provoked her, she would retaliate.She still remembered that after Marilyn gave birth, she took the child to get a vaccine with Marilyn.A couple did not queue up but cut in front of them. Even though the couple looked fierce, Marilyn
Bradley was happy when eating last night, so Elvira decided to cook for him today.At noon, Bradley, who was always punctual, arrived at Marilyn's home on time.There was a truck from the furniture company parked in front of the house.Marilyn opened the door and went out."Mr. Greer, you are here.""Lynn, ask Dominic and Laverne to come out first. They'll move out the old furniture and then move in the new ones. The new furniture is all processed in advance and can be used at any time." Bradley laughed.Marilyn was grateful. "Okay! Mr. Greer, thank you!" Marilyn beckoned her son and daughter to come out and asked them to play in the yard.Dominic and Laverne obediently ran out and went to the side to have fun.Marilyn made a way for the workers.They had just moved in, and much of the furniture had not been used, and there was nothing inside. Changing the furniture now would not be troublesome."Mr. Greer, I was just joking last night. But you have taken it seriously."Bradley smiled
"See you next time, Mr. Greer!" Julian said, looking at Bradley."Alright. Take care!" Bradley smiled politely. He would be the first to be unhappy if Julian wanted to stay for a meal.Bradley could have arrived earlier, but knowing that Julian was also coming, he deliberately got someone to investigate Julian's whereabouts. So in the end, he and Julian almost arrived at the same time.He thought, "Elvira rarely asks me for help. As long as she does, I will spare any effort to help her.I will naturally not let go of such a good opportunity!Elvira begins to accept me. It means that she has put down her past."Julian noticed Marilyn's cheek, which was still a little red and swollen. But with Bradley around, he could not ask much and drove away.Denise also came.Elvira stood by the window and watched Julian's car leave. Then, she entered the kitchen with a complicated expression and continued to prepare lunch.Bradley brought many people here. They carried out the old furniture and rep
Jacob looked at him doubtfully. That night, he and Dominic met Malcolm in the Lakeside District.Jacob said, "You're asking me who was the legal person from before?"Malcolm said, "Yes, that was what I asked you back then, but Dominic was unwilling to answer this question. Now, can I ask you who is the legal person of that land?"When Jacob heard this, he instantly became nervous. Could it be that they had misjudged this time? Did they believe the wrong person?Malcolm looked at Debbie and his heart ached for her. This time, she seemed to be treated by her friend.Malcolm said faintly, "The person who bought this land is the cousin of Mrs. Remington's friend's husband. The two of them bought this land together, but after buying it, they found that no matter what they built, they would not be able to earn money. Moreover, they invested a lot of money in it, and the bank loan is even more difficult to get. The industry insiders are extremely secretiv
In Marilyn's opinion, the entire real estate industry was lucrative.Edmund smiled and said, "Miss, you might not believe me if I tell you the truth."Marilyn also smiled, "Call me Lynn. 'Miss' makes me feel very uncomfortable, and I want to call you Edmund."Edmund was slightly stunned and replied kindly, "Alright, Lynn."Marilyn said, "Then tell me, Edmund! I will believe whatever you tell me!""Great! Then the truth is that your father cares about the unity of buildings and the surroundings very much. He wants his buildings to be harmonious and comfortable for the residents, the building itself, and the nearby environment.Do you know why there aren't buildings more than ten stories tall along Lakeside District?"It was surprising and fresh for Marilyn. She asked curiously, "Because it will make the whole thing not harmonious and balanced enough?"Edmund answered, "Sort of. It's an open secret for those who are familiar with
Edmund was alienating Debbie and she felt ridiculous. She asked curiously, "Where are you going?"The price of the land Debbie bought was very high, and she regretted buying it. Now she had financing difficulty and she had to find an investor!Debbie thought Bradley was the best investor!Debbie had asked Bradley several times, but he refused to see her. In the past few days, she has been looking for opportunities to meet him.Last time Debbie came to see Malcolm for this, but because she hit Marilyn, Malcolm didn't want to help her.Edmund said indifferently, "Mrs. Remington, it seems unnecessary for us to tell you where we are going. We have things to do. We will leave first."Then Edmund looked at Marilyn gently.Marilyn nodded and got in the car.Edmund returned to the driver's seat. Just as he was about to get in the car, Debbie said with a sad expression, "Mr. Dempsey, can you help me make an appointment with Mr. Greer? I
Marilyn looked at Velma coldly. Her eyes were pure and calm. "Why should I tell you? It's not your business. Get out of my way!""Marilyn, I won't let you go!" Velma looked at Marilyn and said stubbornly."What the hell do you want?" Marilyn said impatiently.Velma looked at Marilyn suspiciously and said, "Marilyn, you are allergic to mangoes and spinach, aren't you?"Velma had always suspected that she made a mistake, but she did not know what was wrong with it.Two paternity tests showed that Marilyn was not Debbie's daughter, but Velma still suspected Marilyn.Malcolm's attitude was abnormal, so Velma was even more confused.When Marilyn heard this, she thought of Velma's paternity test. She asked, "Why do you want to know about this?""You don't need to know why. You just have to answer my question." Velma looked at Marilyn arrogantly.Marilyn glanced at her and did not speak.Marilyn thought, 'Is Velma doubti
Roland said happily, "Thank you, Mr. Greer. I toast this glass of wine to you!"The two of them clinked glasses happily and drank the wine in one gulp.Elvira looked at the two of them and smiled. She didn't ask about Margie. She was worried that if asked, Marilyn would have no appetite. She always eats like a bird.Elvira wanted to ask her after dinner.After one glass of wine, Roland picked up the wine bottle again and poured two full glasses of wine.Marilyn saw it and said, "Roland, are you trying to get my father drunk? Drinking is harmful to the body. Besides, you have work tomorrow."Bradley laughed. "Don't worry, Lynn. Dad has a high tolerance for alcohol. I'm so happy tonight. Let's drink some more!"Roland also said, "Lynn, you don't have to worry about me. I also have a high tolerance for alcohol. You knew that. Moreover, I am delighted tonight. I must drink a few more glasses!"Roland said, raising his glass and cli
Denise, who was at the side, said, "Lynn, Elvira, Dominic, you haven't had dinner yet. Have dinner first!"Hearing this, Marilyn looked at her and smiled, "Denise, I feel hungry now that you reminded me. But let's wait a little longer. Dad should be back soon.""Alright!" Denise also looked at her and smiled warmly.Marilyn could not help but smile a lot more sweetly!She said, "Denise, you have been tired all day. Go get some rest!"Denise shook her head and said, "Lynn, I'm not tired. Now I have some people to help me, I will have a lot of spare time. I can also be at ease and come back early!"Marilyn asked, "Business must be good, right?"Denise smiled and said, "Lynn, this is all thanks to your family. That position is good and business is good!"She had business to do and earned a lot every day, so she felt lovely!Now she only hoped that the baby in her belly could grow up healthily!Marilyn smiled. "That's
"Malcolm, are you kidding?" Sergio looked at Malcolm in disbelief.Malcolm frowned and glared at Sergio. He thought it seemed to be wrong to tell Sergio these things."If you don't believe me, you can leave now!"With that, Malcolm sipped beer.Sergio became serious. He knew Malcolm would never joke about that.Sergio lowered his head and looked at the beer on the table. He then also picked up a glass of beer. He drank half of it. The alcohol cleared his mind.After finishing a glass of beer, Sergio had one more.He smiled at Malcolm. "Congratulations, Malcolm!"Malcolm held the beer in his hand and leaned against the sofa. He looked at Sergio with a smile. "Thank you!"Sergio said, "I know you will never lie to me!"Malcolm said, "Of course, my friend!"They smiled at each other and drank another mouthful of beer.The lights shone on their faces, making them look more handsome.Sometimes alco
"I haven't decided yet. I'll think about it tomorrow." With that, Malcolm walked towards the refrigerator.Malcolm took out a few cans of beer, placed them on the table, and looked at Sergio.Malcolm said, "I want to drink more! Let's go!"Sergio glanced at the beer on the table and shook his head. "That's enough for me!""Then let's talk!" Malcolm sat next to Sergio.Malcolm didn't like alcohol. These beers were bought by Julian.Julian had bought them in case visitors like himself wanted to have a drink."About what?" Sergio looked at Malcolm calmly.Neither of them was talkative. It was hard for them to start a conversation.Malcolm thought for a moment and said, "Sergio, I love Lynn very much. I'll prove it with actions."The look in Sergio's eyes changed. Sergio quietly stared at Malcolm without saying anything.Malcolm continued, "I will marry her!""I know," Sergio replied faintly with his head lowered to hide his expression. He felt a mixture of emotions."So, these few days y
Marilyn clenched the steering wheel.Speaking of Malcolm, she remembered something else.After this matter about Margie was over, she would investigate it in person. She wouldn't stop until she figured it out.She did not get any useful information from Margie. At this moment, even if she was unwilling to give up, there was no other way.After Margie's matter was over, she would continue her investigation.If there was a chance, she would meet Margie.She would feel better making it clear.Since Marilyn did not answer her, Laverne felt bored. She hugged her knees with both hands and leaned against the car seat, looking at the traffic stream in front of her."Mom, why aren't you talking? Don't you like Malcolm?" Laverne could not help but ask again.Marilyn smiled. "Laverne, there are many kinds of love. Which kind do you want mommy to have for Malcolm?"When Laverne heard this, she showed interest with a smile on
