Looking at her son's expectant face, Jennifer couldn't bear to disappoint him. She pecked Albert's forehead and said gently, "Dad and I will let you sleep with us tonight."Upon hearing this, Albert's eyes widened in pleasant surprise. "Really? I'm so happy Mom and Dad will sleep with me."He kissed Jennifer's cheek and then grinned at Seth. "Dad, aren't you happy that Mom agreed to sleep with you?"Seth pinched his chubby cheeks and laughed. "I am.""Since you're happy, why don't you show it? You don't know anything. No wonder Mom doesn't like you."After getting lectured by his son, Seth instantly understood what he meant. He leaned toward Jennifer and pecked her softly on the lips. "Thank you," he said tenderly.Jennifer didn't react badly to it. She simply pulled Albert into her arms and covered him with the blanket, listening to Seth tell a bedtime story.Just like that, the family of three slowly went to sleep.The next day, when Albert opened his eyes, Seth and Jennifer
"Sure, don't worry about me. Jazzie said she's coming over to keep me company today. She bought a lot of things for the baby. She's doing a great job at being a godmother, but I just don't know when the godfather will step up."Warren rubbed her head, smiling. "Ethan won't be able to court Jazzie that easily. She has something she can hold over his head."Evelyn looked up at him curiously. "Are you hiding something from me? You always put on this attitude whenever I mention those two. Don't tell me that Ethan did something bad behind Jazzie's back?""It's something like that. We'd better not get involved in this. Both of them need to get used to each other's temperaments. After all, you can't have a rainbow without a little rain. Just like us—not even death could separate us." He gently smoothed his fingers over Evelyn's eyebrows. His dark gaze couldn't hide the tenderness in his eyes.What he and Evelyn went through did not separate them, but it made them love each other even mo
Ethan ran over and rubbed her back. His eyes flashed with a look. "Jazzie, did you get your period this month?"When Jazzie heard that question, she was stupefied.Her period had always been very regular. It was already the end of the month now; her period should have started at the beginning of the month.She had been so busy filming that she had totally forgotten about her period.A bad feeling suddenly overcame her.She and Ethan had done it like crazy when she had gotten drunk the last time. She had been so intoxicated that they hadn't used a condom the time they did it in the bathroom.She couldn't have gotten pregnant the first time, right?Jazzie threw up until her eyes were red and her face was pale. She stared dazedly at Ethan, looking lost.Ethan wiped her mouth and helped her stand. He said comfortingly, "Don't worry. If you're really pregnant, we'll get married."Jazzie pummeled her fists into his chest angrily. "Ethan, did you do this on purpose? You knew I was ov
Ethan didn't even have to consider before he refused. "Why would you want to work while pregnant? Do you think I can't afford to support you and our son? Jazzie, don't even think about it. Once you're confirmed to be pregnant, you have to cancel all of your work.""I won't! I worked so hard to get to where I am today. I don't want to give up so easily. Don't you know what I went through to escape my engagement back then? If Evie hadn't taken me in, I would have starved to death on the streets."When Ethan heard this, he frowned. "You escaped your engagement? What engagement? Are you engaged? Tell me who that bastard is. I'll help you call it off."All he knew was that Jazzie had come to Bramston City alone to earn a living. He hadn't known that she had gone through this.Even if she were engaged, he would think of a way to end it.There was no way he was going to let his woman marry another man.Especially not now, now that she was pregnant with his child.Jazzie wanted to bite
Peter handed Ethan the report and chuckled. "Ethan, I'm afraid that I won't be giving you any wedding gifts right now. You have to keep trying! She's just going through a hormonal imbalance and some gastrointestinal issues right now."Ethan took the report. He saw that all the values were within normal range. Like a balloon, he deflated and collapsed onto a chair.Why wasn't Jazzie pregnant?He had used so much force to the point where Jazzie had burst into tears. He had also lasted a long time, and she had been ovulating. How could she not be pregnant?Was he infertile?Ashamed, Ethan hung his head and said nothing.Jazzie snatched the report out of his hands. Seeing that there were no signs of pregnancy, she instantly relaxed. Her tense face broke into a smile."I told you you weren't capable of getting me pregnant in one try. If you want me to give birth to your kid, you'll have to wait till your next lifetime!"She patted Ethan on the shoulder before leaving, humming a tune
Ethan took Jazzie home and pushed her onto the bed immediately after reaching the bedroom.He took off his tie and unbuttoned his shirt in one swift move.Just as he was going to unbuckle his belt, Jazzie suddenly kicked him in his gut.What followed was a series of violent attacks."Ethan Xavier, if you touch me today, I will commit suicide."Ethan tackled Jazzie. He managed to get her under his control, even though she was struggling and attacking like a cornered animal.Ethan put on a mischievous smile and replied, "There are many ways to die. How about I pick one out for you? You can commit suicide by exhaustion from intense sex."After saying that, Ethan tilted his head down and kissed Jazzie's lips.A hot and passionate kiss overwhelmed Jazzie.In a physical battle between a man and a woman, the woman would not have the upper hand.Although Jazzie kept struggling, she was still pinned under Ethan.He kissed her as a deep and seductive voice escaped his throat."Jazzie
When Jazzie got out of the shower, she saw Ethan sitting on the bed and smoking.A rare frown was between his brows.The emotions from his gaze were indecipherable as well.Jazzie made her way over and snatched her phone from him. Unhappy, she demanded, "Who gave you permission to check my phone?"Ethan put out the cigarette and pulled her into his arms.The mild scent of cigarette smoke mixed with the fragrance of Jazzie's soap. The unique smell floated around Jazzie."Are you going on a blind date?"Jazzie didn't think much of it when she replied, "The movie will be done shooting next week. I will find a way to break up with you then. After that, I will obey my family's request and go on blind dates."Getting an affirmative response turned Ethan's gaze mildly sad. His hold on Jazzie tightened."Jazzie, you slut. First, you had your ways with me, and then you're going on a blind date with someone else. How have I never realized that you are such a player?"Jazzie glared befo
Jazzie glared at Ethan and struggled out of his embrace.She said, "You don't need to worry about anything. I'll pay you after we break up. From then on, there will be nothing between us."Ethan realized that she was going through with her plan and gritted his teeth angrily."Fine, you win this time. I'd like to see if you are okay with leaving me, too!"After saying that, Ethan got up and went to take a shower.…Dennis showed up at Warren's office on time. Seth was also present.A stack of paper was sitting on the table.Dennis' handsome eyes narrowed a little. He got the feeling that things weren't as simple as he thought.Warren noticed that Dennis had shown up, so he arched his brows slowly.Warren then pointed at the seat opposite to his and spoke in a grim voice. He offered, "Take a seat."After that, Warren handed Dennis a document and said, "These are the company shares that Dad and Grandma hold. They have agreed to transfer everything to you. With these shares, y
