Crystal was pregnant! It was big news, and within just two hours, almost everyone from the Smith and Walker families knew about it! The Walker family was overjoyed. Old Mr. Walker and his wife, and Crystal's two aunts rushed to the hospital. The entire hospital room was filled with excitement and happiness. Coincidentally, the two families were discussing the marriage of Marcus and Crystal, so her pregnancy added to the joy. Old Mr. Walker called Old Mr. Alston, who came to see Dennis with Monica and Leonard. Upon hearing the news, Old Mr. Alston felt a mix of emotions. Monica's face turned red with anger, and she unconsciously gripped Leonard's hand tightly until he cried out in pain. Only then did Monica realize what she was doing. Old Mr. Alston was extremely against Crystal's pregnancy, as it meant that Marcus would have another child. However, he was also happy because this would make their wedding preparations smoother. Initially, he was worried that Mr. Marcus would resist
Henry didn't utter a word from the school to the hospital. He kept looking out the window, rubbing his small backpack in his hand, making a creaking sound all the way. Every move he made tugged at Marcus's heart, causing him intense pain. "Daddy!" Henry turned his head to look at Marcus. There was no trace of a smile on his face; he was deadly serious. "Are you going to marry her?" Marcus shook his head without hesitation. Once he made a decision, he rarely went back on it. Since he had decided not to marry Crystal, he wouldn't, even if she was pregnant. It wouldn't change his decision. "No!" Mr. Marcus answered firmly. He looked at his son and said, "Daddy won't marry her!" Henry's lips curled up slightly. Throughout the journey, he didn't even know why he was so upset. He was just unwilling and angry. He liked having a younger sibling. When he saw the younger kids at school, all cute and pink, Henry also wanted a younger brother or sister. But there was a condition. It had to be
Jessica held her forehead, "I think I need to isolate you from Mr. Marcus. I don't remember teaching you such violent behavior!""Mommy, I'm sorry!" Henry pleaded.Jessica gave him a cold look while Henry smiled."Mummy, tomorrow is the weekend. How about going on a vacation?" Henry suggested."A vacation?" Jessica questioned."Yes, Daddy's idea, let's go together!" Henry replied.Jessica pursed her lips, taking them on a vacation at this time? She pondered for a moment and glanced at Henry. "Is it really a vacation?""Then what else could it be?" Henry asked."Alright!"It was a sunny and beautiful Saturday, with gentle winds coming from the west. A rare good weather day.Coincidentally, it was the day Jessica was discharged from the hospital. Her wounds had almost healed and she only needed periodic rehabilitation visits in the future.Finally, she could leave this suffocating hospital. Jessica's mood was great, and even Mr. Marcus looked better in her eyes!After completing the dis
Marcus and Crystal's engagement party was held at the most luxurious five-star hotel in W City. The scene was grand, with influential politicians, wealthy individuals, and celebrities in attendance. Almost everyone who had any connection to the Smith and Walker families was present!The hotel's large parking lot turned into a luxury car exhibition, with guests dressed in glamorous attire. The men looked sophisticated and gentlemanly, while the women were fashionable, stunning, and exuded a sense of sensuality.It became another special runway show. Flashes of camera bulbs never ceased to pop.This engagement party was almost known to everyone in high society. With the financial resources of the Smith and Walker families, they were capable of hosting a luxurious event fit for emperors and kings.The dazzling lights, the vibrant red carpet, the elegant music, and the extravagant decorations made the entire hall magnificent and almost blinding to the eyes, allowing people to experience t
Seaside Villa!Night fell, and a bright moon hung high in the sky, dotted with stars, adding a touch of tranquility to the night.Jessica sat on a lounge chair outside, enjoying the sea breeze, her face adorned with a gentle smile. Her beautiful face appeared even more tender under the moonlight, her long hair swayed and danced in the wind, exuding elegance.The sound of father and son playing and teasing each other in the kitchen reached her ears, occasionally accompanied by Mr. Marcus's discontented resistance and the little boy's angry screams. The adorable little boy waved his little fist and scolded Mr. Marcus, demanding his mommy to come and settle the matter.The little boy said that he wanted to train Mr. Marcus to become a modern-day good man, and the most basic requirement was being able to cook. This frightened Mr. Marcus.When they lived together, Henry often bullied Mr. Marcus. The inexperienced Mr. Marcus, who had never touched a kitchen before, learned how to cook with
This post has only been up for two hours, and there are already tens of thousands of replies. It shows how popular it is and how much people love gossip.The username of the original poster is quite distinctive - "Handsome Money Boy".Jessica almost burst out laughing, remembering the first time she met Mr. Marcus. She also mistook him for a money boy. It seems that Mr. Marcus and the term "money boy" have a connection!This Handsome Money Boy introduced himself as the star performer at a popular nightclub in City W on Friday nights. He even attached a photo of the bar as evidence, very clear and convincing.Jessica knew the bar well. After spending a lot of time there, she was definitely familiar with it. It was an upscale host club in City W, catering to lonely wealthy women. The quality of the money boys in the club was very high, with high academic backgrounds and excellent cultural literacy. Similarly, their prices were also extremely high, with some charging up to 100,000 dollar
After the photos were done, Mr. Marcus called Lionel. "We have been friends for eight years, so you can figure out how to handle this matter on your own!"On the other end, Lionel received the email and whistled. "Wow... You've become a lovestruck man?? When did this happen? You didn't even inform me. It seems my secretary's charm is irresistible!""Who said she's your secretary?" Marcus coldly retorted, transmitting his icy tone perfectly through the phone."Hey, hey, hey... Mr. Marcus, don't be so jealous. Your attitude towards asking for help is not correct. Sweetheart, you're quite arrogant!""It's disgusting. Don't call me sweetheart!""Oh, hahaha... relax, I'll have my team work overnight to modify the articles. We'll write your love story so captivating that it'll astound the gods and make the spirits weep. We made sure to portray Mr. Marcus as the most devoted man in history..."The twisted laughter made Henry shudder involuntarily."Thanks!""Remember, you agreed to my condit
"Mummy, we would be found out sooner or later. It's okay. The Smith family and the Walker family have known about our existence for a while. If let them leak the information, they would throw dirt on us. It's better for Daddy to take preemptive action. That's called being proactive!" Henry cutely bit into his toast, speaking unclearly. He innocently defended his dear daddy.Jessica was speechless about them. Mr. Marcus was ruthless, including both her and Henry in his plan. Along with the post on the forum that Handsome Money Boy wrote, which direction would this matter go in?It was getting more and more lively!If it was someone else's excitement, she might have enjoyed it with a cup of coffee. But if it was hers..."Jessica, are you angry?" Mr. Marcus asked, blocking Henry in front of him.Henry rolled his eyes at him. Oh, Daddy, if you married my mommy, you would definitely be henpecked!"Do you care if I'm angry?" Jessica coolly put down the newspaper. "You acted without consulti
"They saved me," said Saxon, with a cold laugh, "In fact, it was just a trap set by their brothers. They sent someone to ambush me while pretending to save me, successfully getting close to me. Their goal is the mafia, I'm not sure which faction they belong to.""You're really dumb," Camellia retorted. If it were Victor or Robin, this wouldn't have happened. Their core organization doesn't allow outsiders to invade easily, no matter how much trust there is.Saxon's defeat in just a few months was greatly influenced by his misjudgment of people."I admit defeat in this move," Saxon said solemnly. "Just go ahead and kill me."Camellia looked at him and smiled, "My dear brother, if I kill you, my nephew will come after me. Your life should be taken by his own hands, that's what you owe him."Desperate, Saxon closed his eyes and whispered, "Camellia, please fulfill my request, considering we're siblings.""Even if you may be my father, I won't fulfill your request," Camellia said firmly.
There were only five people on the ship.Saxon stood alone on the deck, gazing intensely at the sea, his desire to kill growing stronger. To avoid accidents, he should kill her now. And when Mr. Marcus arrived, he could deliver the final blow.Just as he thought that, the ship stopped, and Saxon roared, "What's going on?""Oh, nothing much. They were tired, so I let them rest forever." A dark figure leaped effortlessly onto the deck, her long hair flowing and her black bodysuit accentuating her seductive figure, her eyebrows exuding absolute icy firmness.Saxon called out in disbelief, "Jessica, you..."She opened her mouth, moved her lips, spat out a voice changer, and tore off the mask on her face, revealing a stunningly alluring face in front of Saxon.He was greatly surprised, but she smiled enchantingly, "My dearest big brother, you could disguise as my Brother Marcus, so why can't I disguise as my brother-in-law? How about that, I think I nailed the act, right? Forgot to tell yo
On the cruise ship out at sea.Jessica tried to move her wrist, but the handcuffs were tight, with long shackles on her feet, trailing chains on the ground, giving the room a particularly gloomy atmosphere. She smiled as she glanced around the room; it was actually quite a nice room, decorated luxuriously and comfortably. She thought to herself, that maybe if Saxon had tied her to the bed, she could have had a peaceful sleep.Her face was pale, breathing seemed a bit difficult, gasping continuously, yet she coldly laughed. Raising her hand, she knocked heavily on the cabin door. As expected, the door opened shortly after, and a tall figure appeared in the doorway, stepping inside.Blonde hair, blue eyes, with a menacing aura that seemed to suffocate, as if ready to destroy the entire world. Such a presence would make anyone feel scared.Jessica, however, smiled, appearing very calm with her usual smile, her gaze passing over him as she said, "Saxon, weren't you in Colombia planning to
Marcus slammed the door shut, and pressed his hand against it, hands supporting the door, his gaze darkly fixed on her. Jessica tried to stay calm but felt her heart racing.She couldn't meet Mr. Marcus's eyes directly, so her gaze shifted, each movement making him breathe a bit harder. She calmly lowered her eyes, ready to listen to his scolding.For a while, Mr. Marcus didn't say a word, his imposing demeanor making Jessica nervous.Finally, Jessica blurted out, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have lied to you, but you can't blame me for this. Henry asked why he didn't have a dad. I couldn't possibly tell him that you're the child of a one-night stand with a stranger, right? That would be devastating for the kid. So I had to come up with this cheesy love story. Who knew you actually got into an accident and lost your memory? Henry had already told you about the cheesy drama in advance, so I just went along with the flow. It was really just an accident, I swear.""You had plenty of chances t
It was his mother's death anniversary that day, and feeling upset, Mr. Marcus went to the bar alone after visiting the grave. Someone approached him, but he turned them down. In such moments, he had no peace of mind, but little did he know that he would meet her.She got drunk and staggered. He hurried over to help her, but she mistook him for a money boy. He was furious, feeling his pride was hurt. He was enraged, knowing she came looking for a man, and he wanted to strangle her.In his rage, that anger turned into desire.Furthermore, knowing she had been drugged fueled his anger even more. He was angry at her, frustrated with her. He couldn't understand why he had such strong impulses towards a woman he hardly knew.Maybe it was the moment of palpitations at the beach or the moment of heart fluttering when she looked up at him as he held her.That night, he lost control.But who would have known that when he woke up the next day, there was a note at the head of his bed with $100 an
On that day, Jessica flipped through the guest list for the wedding invitations and couldn't find Quincy's name. She raised an eyebrow and asked Henry, "How long has it been since you talked to Uncle Quincy?""Long time," Henry chuckled. "Mom, you also need to send invitations to the uncles and aunts on Grandpa's side. Why not send one to Uncle Quincy too?"Jessica nodded, hesitated for a moment, then decided to have Camellia drive her to meet Quincy at the park in front of the Lee Family's house.Michael Lee had been in the hospital for a while, feeling down ever since the case with Diana Brown. He had lost his former dominance and charisma; the once mighty business tycoon had fallen, his glory days long gone.Jessica felt sorry about the situation. If it weren't for what Michael Lee had done, she wouldn't have spoken so harshly that day. She only felt guilty towards Quincy.Quincy just smiled and didn't say much. There was a bit of awkwardness between them, not as warm as before, bu
Herman shot her a look of anger, but Camellia wasn't afraid of him at all. The poor little brother, always overshadowed by his brother, how sad. Any woman who falls for him still has to compete with his brother for attention, it's really a special kind of frustration.He was angry, and in the past, he would have definitely closed the video, out of sight out of mind. But today was different, he just stared at Camellia intensively.Suddenly, Camellia was curious about something, "Herman, do you have a brotherly love obsession?"If he answered yes, it would be quite interesting. She felt chaotic just thinking about it. She and Rose had also been suspected of having a lesbian relationship, and now with a pair of brothers who seem to have a homosexual relationship. Wow!"What do you mean by a brotherly love obsession?" Herman questioned.Camellia replied with a mischievous tone, "It means you look at your brother and wonder if you want to pounce on him and violate him."Rose's face darkene
After a while, there was no response from the other end.Camellia calculated the time—it was early morning in Colombia, so he shouldn't be so easily provoked to find a woman to solve his desire. Whether he understood sex was still a problem.She deliberately teased him and let him stew in anticipation."Uncle, it's been a while, and he hasn't responded," Henry said. "Maybe Herman has bled so much from his nose he passed out?"Rose chuckled. "Maybe he is having sex with a beauty."Rose nudged Camellia playfully. "Camellia, don't overdo it. You might regret it later."Camellia waved her hand, smiling without saying a word, then typed on the keyboard: "Herman, how's my figure?"After a while, there was some movement on the line, and unexpectedly, a naked picture of Herman was sent over. It was artistically shot, but his expressionless face still exuded a sinister air.Camellia, "..."Rose, "..."Henry covered his face and wailed, "Uncle-in-law, please consider the innocence of minors...
"Are you happy?" Mr. Marcus released her swollen lips from their embrace, with a smile. Whether she was happy or not was his top concern.She nodded, extremely happy.She could cherish this moment for a lifetime."As long as you're happy, darling. Henry and Camellia will arrive the day after tomorrow. They'll stay until our wedding and honeymoon. You'll be even happier," Mr. Marcus said with a smile. In the afternoon, Henry had already informed him online that he and Camellia would arrive on different flights but on the same day."Really?" Jessica's face lit up with surprise, pouting, "Henry is biased. He told you, but not me. So unfair."Mr. Marcus chuckled, "I and he need to discuss some matters.""Hmph!" Miss Jessica pouted unhappily.Mr. Marcus smiled, holding her, feeling content.She suddenly thought of something, "If you went to such great lengths for a proposal, our wedding will be like...even more sensational?""You don't need to worry about that, just put on the wedding dres
