Anna found it, and George started playing it then put the phone aside as he focused on watching her bathe.
She suddenly felt uneasy. George’s pose was… way too comfortable!
If he rested his chin on her shoulder, he would be able to see her in full view.
The recording started, sound of Imelda’s voice rang out from her phone.
After listening to it for a while, she roughly knew what would happen afterward, so Anna did not want to listen to it anymore. Even if she wanted to confirm it, she would wait until George was not around. She immediately turned off the recording.
“You don’t want to listen anymore?” George asked.
“No.” Anna turned and raised her eyebrows at him as she said, “Why, you still want to listen to it?”
George chuckled. “Why would I listen to hers? It’s not even nice. Yours sounds nicer.”
“…”
This man was ge
After Tomas recovered, he realized that the company’s financial situation was in a bad state, so he sold Imelda’s management agency.Imelda lost her very own management company. She did not have any dramas to shoot now and did not even have a manager. If she did not have any activities, her manager would not have any commission. If they were to receive only a wage, no experienced manager would want to do the job.And Imelda did not even want to give out basic wages. Hence, she did not even have a manager now. She even did away with having an assistant.Previously, Hellen was her manager, but because of theDMincident, she had been badly affected by Hellen. So now, Imelda did not dare let Hellen be her own manager, so she just let her busy herself at home.That’s why up until now, she had been surviving on her own. As her career hit rock bottom, even her close friends’ group from before cut off contact with her.
Both of them finally regained their senses. They turned and saw Tomas walking in with a blue look on his face. He did not even respond to the auntie.“Dear? Why did you come home at this time?” Seeing the look on Tomas face, Hellen had a bad feeling in her heart.“Dad?” Imelda called out timidly.Alas, for the first time Tomas remained silent. Usually, in such moments, as long as Imelda called him, Tomas would already reply to her with a gentle and loving look on his face.However, now, Tomas seemed to have become even angrier when he heard Imelda’s voice.Tomas was seen taking big strides towards Imelda and Hellen. He raised his hand and gave Imelda a slap on her face without any warning at all.At the same time, he even scolded, “You shameless brat!”Imelda was instantly thrown to the floor by Tomas slap. She had been completely dumbstruck by his slap. She stared at Tomas in disbelief as she
“What nonsense are you saying?!” Tomas said angrily. “Didn’t you know how I treated Grace and Anna back then because of you and this brat? Have I kicked both of you out of the house now?”Hellen was not scared of Tomas now. Anyway, the money was going to be in Imelda’s pocket soon. Tomas still did not know that yet.“But you never ever hit Imelda in the past. You never hit her before!” Hellen shouted.Imelda very timely slumped on the floor and cried, “Dad, I know I did wrong. I didn’t expect people to hear it. I was in Mike’s office then.Tomas was angry. He blamed Imelda for not being discerning of the location and for even daring to agree to do it at that kind of place. It was fine if the office was soundproof. However, the office was not soundproof at all.That recording was simply recorded too clearly.He hated Mike even more. So Imelda was not discerning, but how could h
One year later:Grace had given birth to a baby boy and today the entire family gathered to celebrate little Chang’s (Cory Chang) birthday.It was going to be held at Valenski hotel. This day Anna had a surprise for everyone that include George.Everyone was already arrived as it was simply a family affair. Not many people attend and even reporters were not there.Meanwhile, at the William residence.Hellen’s face turned pale. “Your dad isn’t coming home again tonight! Did he even come home once during this week?”Imelda could not help but agree. “Mom, say, could he really have found someone outside?”Tomas of late as he was already tired with the two shrews at home, he had found himself a young sensible woman and bought a villa some place for her to stay in.Hellen suddenly stood up at once. After going back to her room for a while, she had already put on her coat and was carrying her
Hellen just felt that it was really quite possible that it was Grace. When Grace got together with Tomas, she’d worked hard without complaint or resentment. Even when Tomas met some troubles at work and his career did not take a turn for the better, Grace still did not rush him, and she’d even helped him tide over some difficult times.All along, she had been unwavering in times of favor or humiliation. But what Grace fell short on was that even though she was gentle and considerate, she did not depend on Tomas. And Tomas success could actually be credited to many of Grace’s suggestions. When they started their own business, Tomas did think that this was quite good.But when their career took off, Tomas felt that Grace was being a little too nosy. He was not that bad either, or else how could he have managed such a big business?He was arrogant and conceited. He felt that women should just be confined to their role in the household, take his mo
There was one more line which Imelda did not say.If that mother and daughter pair were that stupid, would she and Hellen end up in this state now?Hellen had been convinced by Imelda’s words. She nodded her head solemnly and said, “You are right. Let’s go over right now!”When Hellen and Imelda arrived, Grace was chatting casually with others at the dining table. She and Anna still did not know that Hellen and Imelda were coming to annoy them.Hellen parked the car and got off with Imelda. Her forte was being a shrew, so she had no fear at all.As Martin did not want to make the birthday party a high-profile event, Valenski operated as usual. If customers came, they would be allowed to enter. They could not possibly not allow people to come in.Hence, the duo did not meet any obstructions and entered Valenski. They were smart too and did not look for the manager.There would surely be someone who would recogni
Right after that, she heard Hellen say, “I know, you might not have any feelings for him, you hate him to the core, let alone have any feelings for him. But to take revenge on me, you can resort to do anything!”“But I’m not you.” Grace was really disgusted to the core. “Anyway, given your family’s current circumstances, do I even need to do anything to take revenge?”Grace laughed mockingly. “All that’s left is an empty shell. Why would anyone else need to do anything?”Hellen was shocked. Her heart started thumping, feeling a little anxious.Did Grace know something?She really did wrong Grace now.The William family was a far cry from how it was in the past. Anyone who paid scant attention would know that. There was no need to dig deeper for any inside information.Grace was simply referring to this as well. It was Hellen who had a guilty conscience; that was why she
George raised his eyebrow, as if he heard a joke. “You made it sound as if we are scared of you coming to find trouble. Tell me, how else can you both come and find trouble? You dare to provoke us? You completely don’t want to stay on in the entertainment industry anymore? Or do you think you have something you can threaten us with? Like the slander attempt today?” George said sarcastically as he tapped his fingers.Today, if he purposely did not let people stop them, this mother and daughter pair would not even have come close to entering this place. Why did he not stop them?Ha!If he stopped them, where would they go to learn of Tomas affair?“I already gave you the hints.” George chuckled and said, “Today, you guys came here to cause trouble and ruin my younger brother-in-law’s birthday banquet. I didn’t settle scores with you and even gave you both hints. This shows that I have a good temp
One week later, wake of down the media was in uproar by what happened the night before, no one expected the downfall of Cobby family within a night. The family were happy celebrating with the other rich family daughter that was to have engagement with mike.The engagement was set for the other week and it was day for formality where the girls family would come and visit the boy’s family.During the dinner the FBI budge into the house and arrested all the Cobby family that include mike as his company was also involved with shady business. The arrest was to first that they had no time to react at all.With all the evidence against them, no one wanted to associate with them as they were afraid of being implicated. Even the girl’s family cut ties with them.Monday morning was an uproar, with all media outlet reporting about the downfall of the Cobby family. Imelda watched the news with mockery laughter, as she saw the Cobby family being take
He found a good angle in the kitchen, set up the phone stand, and fixed his phone on the stand. Then he realized, “This is not right. If I live stream, then I won’t be able to search recipes on my phone. Wait for a while.”He went to take the iPad. Searched for the recipe and then started cooking. He was preparing sun side egg, sausages and some toast bread with bacon and fruit juice. But all was through Anna’s guidance.Finally, a simple breakfast was completed. He hurriedly carried it back.Anna took a small table and placed it on the bed, then ate on the bed with George.“Try it.” It was his first time making breakfast. It looked alright, but he was not sure about the taste and felt a little nervous.Anna looked at George’s hand, which was placed on the small table. His fingers looked so nice, as if they had never gotten dirty. These beautiful hands had just made her breakfast.Although the meal w
George propped Anna up to sit. Anna still looked like a boneless lump of meat. After she had eaten the candy, her throat felt cold and much better. Her voice sounded more normal.However, it was so painful that even after she woke up, she did not want to move at all. Leaning on the pillow, she tilted her head lazily towards George until it fell on his shoulder. “I don’t want to get up. I don’t want to move.”Anna pouted and said, “Lazy.”George turned his head and kissed her lips a few times. “Then, are you hungry?”“I don’t feel hungry now but I might be later.” She raised her arm and placed it on her stomach.Even the movement of raising her arm made her arm extremely sore.Just because of this, she did not want to get out of bed today. She was thinking about it and said out loud, “I don’t want to get out of bed today.”Who knew that right after Anna
The thing that Anna worried about did not exist at all.Even if she did not wear makeup, she could still look amazing in this grand and exquisite wedding dress.That small face of hers looked exceptionally exquisite with this wedding dress.“How is my wife so beautiful?” George muttered. It was as if he said it subconsciously and had accidentally voiced his thoughts.She clearly heard him say such things quite often usually, but at this moment, George’s careful and gentle gaze coupled with his words made her feel so shy that she could not even lift her head up.Yet George was still staring at her. He even took another two steps back so that he could see her from top to toe at once.Although Anna’s head was lowered, she could still clearly feel his gaze on her. Seeing that he was actually not done staring, Anna finally could not help but look up, feeling a little shy as she said, “What are you still staring at?&r
George and Anna returned home. When Anna was done washing up in the bathroom and opened the door, she saw George blocking her right at the door.He had already changed into comfortable home clothes. It was a simple short-sleeved t-shirt paired with loose and long cotton pants. She could smell the scent of shampoo and shower gel from his body, so he had probably just bathed. He did not style his hair like he did usually in the day.Now that he was relaxed, his hair also lay softly on his forehead, and he looked much younger.He was a grown, mature man who was more than thirty years old, but at this moment, he looked just like a twenty something only a few years older than a teenager, which was a far cry from how mature he usually looked like.George lowered his head and kissed her lips as she walked towards him as usual. Anna was not prepared at all and gasped, taking half a step back subconsciously.Alas, George’s movements were even faster.
The brothers made up half of the groomsmen! It’s like they were not afraid of others knowing that there were single.Old Madan Bells heard her grandson greet her. She then responded angrily, “Bad!”Gabriel and Graviel blinked innocently, wondering what had just happened.Old Mrs. Howells said in an angry tone, “This is a table full of singles. You two are part of this group and you are proud of yourselves? Do you think it’s good to be groomsmen? Married people can’t be groomsmen! Only singles can be groomsmen!”Niel felt speechless.If this grandma wanted to scold her grandsons, she should just target her grandsons. Don’t hurt the innocent ones!Niel felt as though he was being scolded as well!He raised his hand and scratched his nose as he quietly moved away from Graviel and Gabriel.: “…”Liam was unhappy. He was not single. How could Old Mrs. Howells
Finally, martin and Anna stopped in front of George. It was a short red carpet, but George felt that it was too long. Anna seemed to take forever to reach him.Just like in their previous lives, when she took an entire lifetime and a fresh start to be with him…He had waited a lifetime and finally found herMartin recalled what he just said to Anna outside the doors and immediately had a feeling like his daughter was getting stolen by someone. And he instantly understood how fathers felt marrying off their daughters. He couldn’t bear to let her go and didn’t want to hand her over.“Dad.” George reminded Martin to quickly hand Anna to him.Anna turned and saw the reluctance on Martin’s face. And she couldn’t hold back the tears any longer. She was also a daughter treasured by her father!Seeing Martin’s attitude, the guests were sure Martin really saw Anna as his own daughter. He used to help A
Anna had never thought of such a good thing before. In the past, she only thought of getting away from the William family and leading a good life with Grace.In the end, not only did she manage to get away, but she even met George. Then, after that, she thought that getting together with him was already the Heavens taking pity on her after seeing how tragic her past life had been.Yet she did not expect that she could also have a father like Martin. Martin fulfilled all the wishes and dreams she had of a father. Upright, nice, and an honorable role model for his children.“Dad,” Anna called.Martin just felt that how Anna addressed him just now was worth a thousand pieces of gold.“Yes!” martin also answered in an equally heartfelt and cherishing manner.“Thank you, thank you for letting me have a father. Thank you for treating me like your biological daughter. I never thought that I could have such a wonderful
Anyway, George and Anna were already husband and wife. They had simply posed an appropriate challenge for the men when they came to fetch the bride and would consider it a pass once they’d had some fun.They would not really stop George.So when they reached the door to Anna’s bedroom, Nicole and the others did not stop him. They just smiled happily and waited for him to enter.George glanced at them with uncertainty and caution as he asked, “You’re letting me in now?”Nicole tsked and said, “You think we’re letting you enter too easily, is that it?”As she said that, Nicole took out her phone and said, “Then you wait for a moment, I will search and see if there are any other ways to prank the groom.”“Wait!” George immediately stopped her and said, “Please have mercy, please have mercy!”Nicole could not help but laugh and say, “I was letting yo
