The setting sun cast a warm orange glow in the study room.Heather sat on the office desk, and Tyrone stood in front of her. His one hand held her slender neck, the other arm tightly around her waist, pulling her closer in his embrace, kissing her deeply.A breeze brushed by, lifting Heather's white skirt lightly against Tyrone's black trousers.After a while, Tyrone released Heather.His thumb gently rubbed against her crimson and tender cheek as he whispered in a husky voice, "Are you hungry?"Heather's eyelashes fluttered slightly as she slowly opened her eyes, blushing as she looked at him. "Didn't you book a restaurant? Let's go.""How did you know?" Tyrone raised an eyebrow."Um, Caleb told me. He said you were scolding someone," Heather said.Tyrone was speechless. How dare Caleb complain to Heather. He must be tired of living!Meanwhile, Caleb suddenly sneezed. He rubbed his nose and felt a sudden chill down his spine. What was happening?…At Vista Palace.The rest
Shortly after, Mr. Caldwell left.Heather asked, "Can we go back now?""Are you angry?" Tyrone frowned and gently pinched Heather's cheek. "You don't need to care about what he said. I've told you, nothing will happen."It seemed like Tyrone was assuring her that her position as his lover was secure.Should she be happy about it?Heather wasn't actually angry. She just didn't want more people seeing them together, especially now that Janine had returned to the country. If rumors reached her, it wouldn't be a good thing."I'm not angry. I just want to go back. Shall we?" Heather said."You're really not angry?""I'm not.""Then give me a smile."Feeling helpless, Heather reluctantly curved her lips into a sweet smile."Heather, your smile is so ugly."Heather was speechless.She wanted to hit him!…Back at Magnolia Creek.Heather put down her bag and headed toward the bathroom.Suddenly, she was lifted up. Startled, she instinctively wrapped her arms around Tyrone's ne
The room fell silent."Heather, you know I need to have an heir."Tyrone stared at her for a moment, frowning as he spoke.Although he and Janine had a marriage for business purposes, they were still husband and wife. It was normal for their families to urge them to have children.A complex emotion flashed in Heather's eyes as she gazed at him seriously. "Then let's break up."Tyrone seemed displeased. "Are you finding reasons to break up with me again?"Heather shook her head. "It's not about that. Although you and Ms. Seel married for business purposes, the child is innocent. How will you explain to the child in the future that you have another woman? That would be too hurtful for the child, and I cannot do that."Having grown up in a broken family, she knew firsthand the psychological impact it could have on a child.Tyrone narrowed his eyes, looking at her abdomen. "If you won't let me have a child with her, then you can have one with me."He and Janine having a child was
Tyrone suddenly asked, "Caleb, do women generally not like to have illegitimate children?"This was a sensitive topic.Caleb paused, then cautiously asked, "Is it... related to you and your mother...?""No," Tyrone interrupted him. "It's Heather. She doesn't want to have children.""Do you want Ms. Sutton to have a child?"Caleb was shocked and almost bit his tongue. "Mr. Elkin, you are already married to Ms. Seel. If you have a child with Ms. Sutton, it would be extremely troublesome!"Tyrone spoiling Heather was one thing. But asking her to have his child was another!Was he under Ms. Sutton's spell?"I am capable of protecting both her and the child," Tyrone retorted.Whoever dared to harm her and the child was provoking him!Sensing his seriousness, Caleb's tone became more serious. "Mr. Elkin, the Elkin family is complicated enough. If people found out that you have a child with Ms. Sutton, it will put her and the child in a dangerous situation. Even if you can protect t
Meanwhile, Janine looked at her phone with a frown as she had just been hung up."See, Janine? Do you believe Tyrone is doting on that woman a lot now? All he cares about is her. That's why he didn't want to have a baby with you. If she has a child, your status as Tyrone's wife will be at stake."Jasmine did everything she could to provoke Janine into action.In reality, the Elkin family had never urged them to have a child soon. Janine said that intentionally to test Tyrone.She would never find someone else to have a baby with. Otherwise, if anything were to happen to the relationship between the Elkin and Seel households, that hypothetical child of hers would be her death knell.What surprised her more was Tyrone's attitude. In the past, Tyrone would always cooperate when it came to their marriage. However, he refused to have a baby with her because of Heather.A glint of light appeared in Janine's eyes as she removed her facial mask, revealing the stony expression underneath.
Dr. John then continued asking Heather, "Alright. How old are you?""I'm…""21 years old."Before Heather could even finish, Tyrone's voice rang next to her.She smiled. "Right. I'm 21 years old. Please, continue."Dr. John continued, "What kinds of interests do you have, Ms. Sutton?""She likes writing scripts and looking at ancient architecture.""What do you like, Ms. Sutton?""She isn't picky and likes donuts the most."No matter what the doctor asked, Tyrone would reply on Heather's behalf before she could even answer.Heather felt a little helpless as she said, "He got everything right."Dr. John then said in a hesitant tone, "Mr. Elkin, the reason I'm chatting with Ms. Sutton is so we can build some rapport. You shouldn't have answered on her behalf."In other words, he was trying to treat her. Tyrone didn't have to show the love he had for her.Tyrone immediately frowned and said in an upsetting tone, "Why must you build rapport with her for her treatment?"Tyrone
Heather turned and looked outside the consultation room.Tyrone was leaning against the wall in the corridor. His head hung low as he frowned and smoked a cigarette. A thin layer of smoke seemed to be covering his handsome face, adding a sense of mysteriousness to his prideful imposition.The sunlight shone right on his tall figure, a soft glow covering him.Tyrone suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Heather, as if he could sense her looking at him.Their eyes met each other.Tyrone averted his gaze and Heather's heart trembled, and she instinctively moved her eyes away too.She asked Dr. Jones, "I'm here to receive treatment for my trauma, not for you to analyze my inner thoughts. Let's begin, then."Dr. John wasn't angry at all and he simply smiled. "Sure, let's begin our treatment. Ms. Sutton, you don't try to remember your mother much, do you?"Heather was stunned before she nodded gently. "Yes.""You lost your mother when you were very little and that had hurt you deep
Tyrone said nothing else and left, leaving behind a whiff of cold air behind him.Once Tyrone was gone from Dr. John's sight, Dr. John wiped the sweat off his forehead and let out a sigh of relief.He would only be full of smiles when he was speaking with Heather. That was so scary.…Once Heather walked out of the building, she walked over to the car, stopping by the roadside."Hattie!"A young woman's voice suddenly sounded.Whitney was standing not that far away, wearing a dress and a white coat. Her black hair was resting on her shoulders and her lips were scarlet red from her lipstick, hiding the paleness underneath. However, it made her already pale face look even paler."I thought I had mistaken someone else for you. I didn't expect that it really was you."Whitney walked over happily.Heather looked at her purse, which was worth tens of thousands of dollars, and asked, "Why are you here?""I'm going to the hospital and I'm waiting for a cab.""How are you doing?""
