Marilyn glanced at the barbecue stall. It was very crowded at night.Five or six people sat at the same table, drinking and chatting. The stall was quite kicking.Marilyn and Roland had always liked bustling places downtown and did not like to go to those high-class places to eat.Jeannie often despised the two of them, saying that they did not know how to live a life. Thus, Jeannie would take them to some high-class restaurants for a big meal.Roland always complained that he was not full, so he had an excuse to bum a meal off Marilyn's mother at Marilyn's place.Roland picked up the beer on the table and said with a smile, "Lynn, come, let's have a drink.""Alright!" Marilyn also raised the beer. The two touched the cans and drank a mouthful of beer.Marilyn couldn't drink too much. Even beer felt strong to her.Roland also knew that. Thus, as long as the weather was not cold, he would give Marilyn cold beer. The taste of cold beer was slightly better."It tastes good!" The ice-cold
\Debbie smiled coldly. She caught the fear in Gladys's eyes. Besides, Debbie had investigated the Warren family thoroughly.Otherwise, Debbie wouldn't have come to this place tonight.The Warren family had three children, namely Denise, her elder brother, and her younger brother, who was still at college. Gladys's husband was sick. The whole family could only count on the barbecue stall.Debbie looked at her son coldly and sneered, "Jacob, if you get involved with Denise again, I will make this barbecue stall disappear tomorrow."When Denise heard that, she couldn't help but take a few steps back.If this barbecue stall was gone, how could their family survive?Denise's younger brother wouldn't have had tuition fees.Denise knew Jacob's identity. She thought that as long as she tried hard, she would be recognized by the Remington family.Yet Denise was too naive. Those wealthy and powerful families paid attention to social status.Denise didn't deserve the Remington family.Both Jacob
Marilyn knew that Roland wanted to defend her, but it wasn't necessary.Marilyn could solve her own problems.If Roland were to get involved, it would instead make things complicated.Debbie could then take advantage of this opportunity to make a fuss."Lynn..." Roland looked at her in annoyance.Marilyn got bullied when Roland was right there with her.Marilyn looked at Jacob's guilty handsome face and smiled warmly. "Roland, I'm really fine. I will handle it myself. Moreover, Debbie is not an unreasonable person."Debbie had a strong hostility towards Marilyn because of Malcolm.Marilyn would be fine if she stayed a little further away from Malcolm."I think she's unreasonable. She's always insulting others," Roland said angrily as he glanced at Debbie who was sitting in the car.Meanwhile, Jacob glanced at Marilyn and then the barbecue stall before turning around to leave with Debbie.Marilyn saw the helplessness and reluctance on Jacob's face.Marilyn pursed her lips and watched th
After putting it on, she walked to the mirror and posed.She smiled sweetly, very satisfied with this white dress.She wanted this one.She turned around again and went to pick a spare one. At the banquet, there would be many people and it was inevitable to bump. The white dress was easy to get dirty.Julian was anxiously waiting outside.Suddenly, he heard footsteps behind him.He subconsciously looked back.He saw Malcolm, who had a cold temperament, walk in gracefully.Julian suddenly widened his eyes and jumped up from the sofa, looking at Malcolm in surprise.Julian said in a low voice in disbelief, "Malcolm, why are you here? Shouldn't you be in the fitting room? Shouldn't you be sitting inside and looking at your Lynn? Damn, why are you here?" Julian gritted his teeth.It seemed that Julian had been busy all night last night for nothing.Malcolm glanced at him and said with a frown, "I received a call from the Lowe's house. I went out to answer the phone. Is Lynn inside?""Since
When Malcolm heard Debbie's words, he understood why Marilyn had suddenly distanced herself from him."Mrs. Remington, you misunderstood...""Misunderstood?" Debbie suddenly sneered and interrupted Marilyn. She looked at Marilyn gloomily.Step by step, Debbie approached Marilyn. She looked at Marilyn condescendingly and sneered. "I only believe what I see. You are seducing Malcolm!"Hearing this, Marilyn lowered her head. Marilyn wanted to stay away from Malcolm, however, coincidences always happened.Malcolm suddenly looked colder and more domineering. The atmosphere around became more oppressive."Mrs. Remington, please pay attention to your words. This is between me and Ms. Chapman. It's not something you should meddle in." Malcolm's cold voice was like a knife, sharp and cold.Debbie frowned and looked at Malcolm in disbelief. This was the first time Malcolm had spoken to her like this in so many years.And it was for a woman!Velma, on the other hand, was overwhelmed by fear and n
When Velma heard that, she was quite dissatisfied, but she dared not say anything else."Mom, it's okay. We are not in a hurry. We will talk about it when Malcolm is in a good mood." Velma pretended to be considerate and smiled gently.Debbie was immersed in her grief and nodded perfunctorily.Velma bit her lower lip. This morning, they came here because they wanted Malcolm to announce that they were engaged at tonight's banquet. This way, no other woman would dare to have any thoughts about Malcolm.But it seemed Velma overestimated Debbie. Velma had thought that Malcolm would respect Debbie for Carolyn's sake.However, Malcolm was unmoved.This morning, when they heard that Malcolm was here, they rushed over.However, Velma had once again missed this opportunity.What was even worse was that Velma saw Malcolm, who had never touched women, actually holding Marilyn's hand.Velma was afraid that she couldn't marry Malcolm.In this way, everything Velma had done would go to waste.Velma
"Yes!" Marilyn nodded, thinking that she was reluctant to have anything to do with him.Malcolm looked at her and smiled slyly. "I am not interested in married women." But he was interested in Marilyn.Malcolm did not say his real thoughts.When Marilyn heard this, she instantly breathed a sigh of relief.Just then, the elevator door opened.However, Malcolm still held Marilyn's hand.The moment the elevator door opened, Malcolm first saw the people outside the elevator.He quickly let go of Marilyn's hand and naturally put his hand into his pocket.Malcolm instantly turned cold.Marilyn was shocked by his change. She was about to look up when she suddenly saw a man and a woman standing outside the elevator. The woman had an enchanting figure and was very beautiful, wearing a tight black skirt that completely accentuated her exquisite figure. This woman was noble and cold.The man behind her was thin and handsome. He had a pair of sharp eyebrows that were thick and dark, which was the
Marilyn took a deep breath and caught up with Malcolm's pace. But with his long legs, Malcolm walked too fast, and Marilyn had to jog to catch up.Unexpectedly, Malcolm suddenly paused, and Marilyn, who had no time to stop, suddenly bumped into his back.Marilyn cried out.Her forehead hurt, and she felt dizzy.Malcolm turned around and looked at her with care. "Lynn, be careful!"Marilyn rolled her eyes speechlessly. If Malcolm hadn't suddenly stopped, she wouldn't have had such a tragic moment.Embarrassing!Marilyn felt she was unlucky.When she was with Malcolm, why were there so many accidents?"Well..." Malcolm could not help but chuckle when he saw how cute Marilyn looked when she lowered her head in pain.Malcolm asked in a low voice, "Lynn, did you get hurt?"This was the first time Marilyn had heard such a low and bright laugh. She could not help but glance at Malcolm and quickly took a few steps back.Her tone was indifferent. "Mr. Lowe, I'm sorry! I was careless when walkin
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
