Evelyn smiled and replied, "Ezra has a wife and kid. How is he a single idiot?""But he doesn't have a son. The Hawkins still don't have an heir. What's the point of marrying so young, then? He's nothing like me. I got myself an heir on my first try. Darling, isn't your husband awesome?"Seeing how proud he was, Evelyn felt that Warren was truly being himself at that moment.He was a man with flesh and blood. He experienced sorrow and joy like any regular guy. Warren wasn't acting the way he used to when he buried every single one of his emotions in his heart.Evelyn smiled and caressed his head. She agreed with him and said, "Yes, you are awesome. Here, let me reward you with a kiss."After saying that, Evelyn got closer to him and gave him a peck on his cheek.She was about to move away when Warren locked her waist in place tightly. His deep voice made its way into her ears."Thank you for reminding me. I have a son now, but I haven't thanked his mother. Thank you, Darling."
Jazzie hadn't had the chance to remove her make-up after shooting her scene. Hence, the red lipstick was especially bright.The straw had a thick, red circle on it.Ethan, who had always been terribly germaphobic, pretended not to notice. His lips lined up with the lipstick mark perfectly.He took a few sips and nodded in satisfaction. He said, "It's pretty good. If you're nice, I'll buy more for you."He stroked Jazzie's head a few times as though he were playing with a cat.Jazzie stared at him, dumbstruck. She secretly gritted her teeth."Ethan Xavier, you drank my iced tea!"Ethan arched his handsome brows as he looked at her. He said, "I bought the entire cup for you, so why can't I have a few sips? You're so selfish."Jazzie could tell that he was deliberately missing the point. She angrily fished a piece of tissue out of her pocket and scrubbed the straw as thoroughly as possible."Did you even brush your teeth before you sipped my drink? Your breath is so terrible. How
Two hours later, Ethan still hadn't returned.The restaurant called Jazzie once more."Ms. Hoffman, may I know when you'll arrive? If you aren't here in 30 minutes, we'll have to cancel your reservation."Jazzie looked out the window and said, "Okay, if I'm not there in 30 minutes, just go ahead and cancel my reservation."After hanging up the call, Jazzie left Ethan's office.She knew where the operating theatre was since she had shot a few scenes in the hospital before. She went straight for the elevator and only stepped out once it reached the tenth floor.Jazzie was thinking about heading to the operating theatre when she heard a woman's sob coming from the stairwell."Ethan, the surgery was a success, so why is she gone? That poor woman…"Jazzie stopped short.She recognized that voice. It was Ethan's junior, Davina, who spoke.Jazzie more or less guessed what was going on, then. It was likely that the patient they tried to rescue earlier had passed.Still, hearing Da
After murmuring to himself for a while, Ethan bought some soup and handed it to a nurse at the nurse's station. He left in a hurry after that.When he reached the restaurant, the Ferris wheel happened to be at the end of its current ride session.Seeing the couples leaving the ride together, Ethan felt a complex emotion swirling in his heart.He saw Jazzie standing all by her lonesome in the crowd of lovebirds, and that prompted him to dash over right away.He grabbed her wrist.His gaze shone with concern when he looked at her and demanded, "Jazzie, why did you come here on your own?"When Jazzie saw his face and realized who he was, she jerked her arm away.She was in a drunken stupor as she glared at Ethan and snapped, "What else am I supposed to do, then? Wait for you? Who do you think you are? Why should I wait for you?"After saying that, Jazzie turned around and left without looking back.Ethan immediately chased after her. He explained, "Davina passed out earlier becau
Ethan's deep, seductive voice had an incubus-like charm. It rang inside Jazzie's ears and mind."Jazzie, are you feeling shy? Why are you blushing red?"Ethan gently pinched Jazzie's burning cheek. The tip of his nose traced her forehead a few times.He chuckled and then asked, "You aren't turned on by the words I said earlier, are you? Jazzie, have you fallen in love with me?"Jazzie's mind hadn't been clear for a while. All she saw was Ethan's handsome face swaying in front of her.She grabbed his tie and stared right at him with her bloodshot eyes. Her warm breath tickled Ethan's clavicles. Two cute dimples showed up on her beautiful face.Her voice was sweet when she answered, "You're my boyfriend. Of course, I love you."After saying that, her warm lips planted a soft kiss on Ethan's neck.Ethan gulped hard as his entire body became burning hot from her seductive actions.Just as he was enjoying that blissful moment, he felt a sharp pain in his neck. Jazzie had mercilessl
Ethan stopped at the nearest convenience store and ran inside. It didn't take long before he returned.All he got from the store was a box of condoms.Jazzie leaned against the backrest of her seat. Her head still hurt a little from the intoxication. That being said, she was still of sound mind. She knew what they would do next.However, she wondered if that was what she really wanted. Once she took that step, there would be no turning back.Those thoughts extinguished all the passion that was ignited within her earlier.Unfortunately, Ethan never gave her the time to react. Once the car was parked in the parking lot near their place, he pulled her into his arms.He escorted her to the elevator before she could say a word.He couldn't wait to kiss her lips.Jazzie kept punching Ethan's chest. She complained, "Ethan, let me go. There's a camera here."Not only did Ethan never let her go, but he also kissed her more passionately.His thigh pinned Jazzie against the wall of the
Ethan smiled brightly and replied, "Sure. It's a great day, so the baby's godparents will definitely be there."After hanging up the call, Evelyn stood stunned in place.She couldn't recover from her shock, even though quite some time had passed.Warren entered the room and saw her in that state.He made his way over and kissed her growing tummy. He then smiled and asked, "What are you thinking about? It's got you all dazed."Evelyn's gaze shone with glee when she looked at him and replied, "You actually guessed right. Jazzie and Ethan have gotten together."Warren frowned and asked, "What do you mean?""I meant they slept together. Jazzie wouldn't do that with just anyone, so she must love him. Warren, won't it be great if the two of them really end up together?"Warren smiled and pinched her soft cheek a little. After that, he replied, "I don't think things will be that simple. Jazzie won't accept Ethan that easily.""Why not? I think the two of them are pretty compatible. A
No matter how Evelyn looked at it, she thought that she had the right to know the truth. After all, Sonya was her mother and the only person who had ever shown her any maternal love.Warren never had any intention of lying to her, though.Seeing the frown between Warren's brows, Evelyn felt heartbroken. She reached out with her soft hands and smoothed his brow."Did something happen at work lately? Why have you been frowning so much?"Warren tilted his head down to look at Evelyn. He saw her beautiful face and noticed that her gaze was brimming with worry for him.It stung Warren's heart a little, and his grip slightly tightened around Evelyn's hand."Some time ago, they stole some of the company's classified information. It greatly affected the performance of our new product in the market. The domestic sales of our computer chips have also tanked."However, none of that is important. The most important task for me is to protect you and the baby. I will not let either of you get
