Mike did not expect her to fall into the trap so soon.
Tomas had it coming for choosing such a wife.
“Mom, what were you going to say?” Imelda was dragged by Hellen to the end of the corridor. She turned her head, only to see Mike standing far away from the entrance of the operating theater.
It was as though he was aware that she was watching. He turned his head and smiled at Imelda.
It was then that Imelda said to Hellen, “What is it that you can’t talk to me about later when we are alone? Why must you pull me away in front of Mike as though he is an outsider and we are hiding things from him?”
“Since your father is in the operating theater, it is inconvenient to talk there. Later, when your father’s operation finishes, it will be even more inconvenient. Is there anyone beside him to accompany him? It is uncertain when he will wake up. If he wakes up and doesn’t see us beside him, given his narrow-minded temperament, he will definitely feel t
Imelda sent Mike to the hospital carpark. “If not for my father’s illness, I would not want to be separated from you.”Mike comforted her, “You should go back soon and accompany him. Uncle may wake up at any moment. Auntie and you are the most important to him. If he does not see you when he wakes up, he will definitely take issue with you.”“What is the point of staying by his side? Anna is strongly against him and yet he still decided to leave one half of his estate to her,” Imelda murmured.Mike understood what he heard. His eyebrows moved slightly. “Then you would just leave Uncle to do as he pleases? The ones who have always stayed by Uncle’s side are you two! How does Anna have a part in this? She has also angered Uncle until he fainted. Is there a need to give her a part of his estate?”Imelda held Mike’s hand. “Mike, don’t worry, everything in the William Family belongs
“Mom, don’t talk anymore, Dad might wake up at any time,” Imelda warned.Hellen hurriedly covered her mouth. “Right.”“Mom, do you think we can take some money for Dad’s treatment from Anna?” Imelda suddenly asked.“Don’t joke. Look at Anna. She hopes for your dad to die faster. Can we still hope that she would take money out for your dad’s treatment?” Hellen rolled her eyes.“But she’s also Dad’s daughter!” Imelda was very unsatisfied. “Although this small bit of money for the treatment is nothing much to us, I can’t stand her gaining benefits from us. Oh, half of Dad’s inheritance in the future will be given to her, so there is her bit of money. Now that Dad’s sick, shouldn’t she take out money? Is she just waiting to benefit without doing anything? How can such a good deal exist!”Imelda gritted her teeth and said,
Anna paused, her gaze darting left and right before she thickened her skin to look directly at George “Anyway, you are my husband. Taking a few more looks is not wrong. That’s my personal service.”George smiled, went up, and stopped in front of her. He was so tall, he enveloped her in his embrace instantly.Anna took a step back, but her back was pressed on by him, causing her to nestle in his embrace even more.Her soft hands were grabbed by him, and he opened up his collar and pressed her hand onto his chest. “Anyway, I’m your man, you can do anything. Not only can you look, but you can also touch.”Anna’s palm was extremely hot, yet she had already said those words and she was too embarrassed to take them back now. Still, her face was already so red.At that moment, George suddenly lowered his head next to her ear. “You can also ride.”“boom!!”Anna’s brain wa
As when the new year ends, she will be busy and George will be busy so they only had the next weekGetting him to rest for three or four days was impossible, let alone going for a honeymoon, which required a longer period of time.“Ever since the New Year break, I’ve been finishing up all possible work to free up at least seven days.” George said“Okay, then. I’ll consider our honeymoon destinations tomorrow,” Anna said sleepily.“Think now,” George said eagerly, unable to sleep and not willing for Anna to sleep.Especially when he was satisfied and full of energy.“Any places you wish to go to?” Anna asked as she yawned.She had no suggestions at all.In both lifetimes, she had never traveled overseas once.Anna only experienced domestic traveling due to work related to Imelda, but she was always so busy working she never had the chance to properly enjoy
Upon them reaching the main island, the villa’s butler flew them on a helicopter to the archipelago that George had booked.Looking down from such a great height, one could see the numerous villas reaching deep into the deep blue sea dotting the edges of the beaches.A limousine from the hotel was waiting for them when they got off the helicopter, and it brought them to their hotel.A staff carried their luggage inside while Anna wondered why George only stood at the entrance, not bringing her in.“Do call for me if both of you require anything,” the butler said after the helper had done his job. “I’ll take my leave now.”Following this, the butler and the helper left.Anna swung George’s hand. “Can we go in now?”George tapped between her eyes with a finger. “Wish you weren’t so smart sometimes.”Anna smiled with satisfaction. “So what’s in the
Being here, both of them would sleep until they were woken up naturally. They would always spend time with each other all day long. Apart from sticking together, they did nothing else.After, Anna felt that she was about to swell from soaking in the water for too long, she put on a thin sun-protective blouse and shorts over her swimwear and dragged George outside for a stroll on the beach.The beach was so lively.There were bands performing soothing and cheery music, but it was not too rowdy.On a beach that was far away from their villa, there were barbecue parties and some young people playing beach sports.Because of the distance, they could not hear anything in their villa.After walking along the beach for a while, she leaned back on a chair to rest and bask in the sunlight.“What do you want to drink? I will get it for you.” George pointed at the open bar.“It is too hot. Give me an icy can of beer,&rdq
George was relieved that he was not disliked. Anna went back to packing.After she had packed everything up, the villa looked very empty.She reminisced about the seven carefree days spent at the resort. Every day, there was no need to think. This place was like a place of refuge.During the times when they were at LA, they did not appear to be missing anything. Anna and George were very successful in their respective careers. They had never lost. Neither did they have any competitors.But in reality, their stress levels every day were quite high. It could not be compared to how relaxed they were these last few days.At this place, even emptying their minds was very soothing. Even boredom was a form of bliss.Tomorrow, they would have to leave. Anna suddenly felt that the days had passed too fast.Sitting at the edge of the bed, dazed, she heaved a sigh of relief.The thought of returning home and having to deal with life again
On the next day, they went to the airport. Because they came by way of a private jet, George’s airplane had always been parked there. The luggage had to go through a special passage, and after the security clearance, it was sent directly to their plane. Anna and George cleared customs and saw that there was a bit of time left before take-off. Just resting at the VIP lounge and waiting was meaningless. Coincidentally, there were a number of boutique shops along the way. Anna then pulled George to shop leisurely. Passing a watch shop, they saw a poster hanging outside the shop on which the models were wearing couple watches. Anna grabbed George’s wrist. He was used to wearing a watch. Men’s love for watches was probably similar to women’s love for bags. “Let’s go and take a look inside.” Anna dragged George in. “That watch looks nice, should I give it to you as a wedding gift?” George smiled. He did not know when
