They went to the hospital twice over the next two days.On the third day, after completing the last procedures for the artificial insemination, the doctor told Sonnet, "You should be careful these few days; don't exercise vigorously, don't do heavy physical work, and watch out for uneven surfaces."Maxwell took Sonnet's arm after they left the hospital.Sonnet pulled away subconsciously and looked at him in surprise. Her eyes were filled with scrutiny.Maxwell touched his head and explained, "Don't get me wrong. Didn't the doctor say you should be careful? So I just want to give you some support."His innocent but solemn expression amused Sonnet.She chuckled. "I can still walk fine, don't worry too much."Maxwell offered to drive Sonnet home. He figured it was better to be safe since the procedure was fresh. Sonnet did not refuse.Halfway on the road, Maxwell suddenly stopped the car at the side of the road."What are you doing?" Sonnet asked curiously."Wait for me." With t
Sonnet nodded and went downstairs to look for the children.She was a little curious about how Johnson managed to get the kid to his house.Lune was fond of Johnson, but Jaybie was not. He was wary of Johnson; it was unlike him to go to Johnson's house. If Jaybie wouldn't go, Lune wouldn't either.She knocked, and the door opened quickly. It was Lune.“Woof woof!” In her arms, a small white puppy yelped. The puppy was undeniably cute, with a white, fluffy body."Mom, look at this puppy, quick! I named it Snowball, isn’t it cute?" Lune's eyes shone, and she was very excited.She liked small animals. Baby animals like this would surely keep her hooked.Sonnet reached out, touched the little puppy, and smiled at Lune. "It's so cute!""It's too adorable. I love it so much!" Lune said sincerely, rubbing her little face against the puppy's head.Sonnet followed Lune into the room. Johnson was sitting on the sofa, feeding two little parrots with melon seeds.Lil Ruddy and Lil Oriole
Sonnet nodded at him, turned, and left.She went upstairs for dinner. While she was washing the dishes, her cell phone rang suddenly.Lindy came in with her mobile phone while holding a fruit. "What’s up with Johnson? Why is he calling when he’s just downstairs?"Lindy helped her answer the phone and turned on speaker mode because Sonnet's hands were covered with detergent foam.Johnson's serious voice spoke. "Sonnet, Jaybie fainted. Hurry and pack up. I'll take him to the hospital."Sonnet wiped her hands on the apron, dropped the bowl and chopsticks, and ran out.She could not wait for the elevator and ran down the stairs just in time to see Johnson come out with Jaybie in his arms."Let me carry him!" She went to cradle Jaybie.But Johnson stopped her. "I can hold him firmly. You press the elevator button, quick!"Sonnet hurriedly pressed the elevator button. The elevator was on the eighth floor, and it came down slowly. Sonnet was anxious and touched Jaybie's pale face. "H
Sonnet had no idea how Johnson arranged it, but within a few days, he informed Sonnet that foreign experts would arrive the next day.Sonnet was very surprised. She prepared a bag for Jaybie’s hospital stay that night and took him to Westfield Hospital early the next morning.When the attending doctor met Sonnet, his expression became nosey. "Sonnet, your family is really amazing. You managed to invite Professor Dr. Lidle, who is globally renowned, to give Jaybie a special diagnosis and treatment!"Sonnet suppressed the surprise in her heart and smiled at him. "What is the arrangement later?""Dr. Lidle arrives at noon, then our Young Master Gunn will personally receive him. In the afternoon, we will let Dr. Lidle assess Jaybie’s situation and discuss a chemotherapy plan together. Don’t worry, we will make arrangements for the diagnosis and treatment." The attending doctor replied."Thank you, you’ve worked hard,” Sonnet said a few polite words and sent the doctor away.Looking b
"Johnson is said to work casually at Paragon Group. He is frequently absent and sometimes only comes in for half a day. He didn’t appear to have much influence over the company's operations. President Strombold and other executives oversee the majority of them. Some company employees initially whispered that he was brought in only because of his connections and that he was just an idiotic and empty-headed vice president."However, something recently occurred at a private junior high school run by the Paragon Group. A child died after jumping from the building. This was such a major incident that even the Education Bureau was taken aback. Johnson stepped forward at this point to help turn the situation around. He used his connections to quickly resolve the issue, particularly with upper management.""So, he is still quite capable?" Sonnet asked."That's right. People began to suspect him of having a strong background later on. Nobody has concluded anything because the opinions are so
When the attending doctor happened to walk in and overhear his words, he responded with a smile. "This is because one of the drugs is a newly developed drug from another country with fewer side effects, which has replaced our domestic drugs with more side effects."Sonnet felt very lucky when she heard this, but Jaybie thought otherwise."Sir, this medicine must be very expensive, right?" He was afraid of burdening his mother.The doctor's smile froze. "It's not very expensive, your mother can afford it. It’s just a little tricky because this medicine isn’t available on the domestic market, we just need to import it from abroad."Jaybie breathed a sigh of relief.Sonnet felt a jab in her heart at Jaybie's expression.Jaybie was too sensible, he always feared that his illness would put the family deeper in debt.After the doctor left, Sonnet deliberately revealed to Jaybie that she had some money on hand. "Jaybie, just focus on the treatment and get better soon. Mom can still aff
‘He may be the vice president of the Paragon Group and receive a good salary, but he does not come from a wealthy family. This level of spending was unacceptably high. I can't let him pay for this on his own; I have to share it with him regardless.’She cleared her throat and the two nurses turned around. Their faces showed instant embarrassment when they saw her.She pretended not to hear anything, asked the nurse for sterile cotton swabs and antiseptic, and took them to the ward.After treating Sophia's wound, she came out to call Johnson."Have you had lunch yet?" That’s Johnson's first question when the call was connected."Yes I have, how about you?""I’m eating now. How is Jaybie today? Tell him that I'll see him after work in the evening and that I'll bring him a surprise today."Sonnet was silent. Then, she said, "You spent a lot of money for Jaybie, right?"He was taken aback for a moment, and answered casually, "It didn't cost much.""I've heard everything. The entir
"I'm not sure what's going on. Jaybie's body temperature is fluctuating between hot and cold.""Call the doctor!""I just rang the bell; the nurse should be here soon!"After Johnson said that the nurse’s hurried footsteps came to the door. She checked on Jaybie's situation and immediately trotted off to call the doctor.The doctor came to assess Jaybie’s situation, and after taking various measures, he said to Sonnet, "This is a side effect of chemotherapy drugs. It varies from person to person. You don't have to worry too much. He will get better after a while."Sonnet was worried but powerless, and she couldn't sleep, so she sat by Jaybie's bedside.Exhausted, Jaybie eventually returned to normal after some tossing and turning and fell into a deep sleep.Sonnet said to Johnson: "Jaybie is fine now, you go get some sleep."Johnson shook his head, without taking his eyes off Jaybie's face. "I can't sleep.""You have to go to work tomorrow—""I simply regret it. Why didn't I
The young ladies below gathered together and discussed animatedly. As they spoke, they covered their mouths and laughed.Young Master Gunnnn didn't care what others said about him at all. He only focused on the bouquet in Sonnet's hand.Not only Sonnet's bonnet but also Lindy's and Zyra's. He wanted them all.Lindy was waiting beside Sonnet. When she saw Hayden's focused expression, she couldn't help but laugh. "Why? Hayden hasn't successfully won over Suki yet?"Sonnet smiled and replied, "That's right. It's said that every time Suki agreed to register their marriage the next day, someone would die the next day. Later on, Suki didn't let him talk about registering their marriage.""Young Master Gunn is really infatuated!" Zyra sighed.Lindy rolled her eyes at her. "He's not infatuated at all. Among those men, he's the most flirtatious. Zyra, you don't know what Hayden was like in the past. He went to the nightclub almost every night and changed his girlfriend every week! He boas
Sonnet never expected her father to be the son of a wealthy family in North City!More than twenty years ago, he met her mother, Leah Turner, and they fell in love. Leah was a female university student from a rural area. There was a huge disparity in family status, and the Turner family did not agree to this marriage.Myles’ mother had passed away early, and his stepmother did not treat him well. Therefore, when Myles was angry with his father because of Leah, she added fuel to the fire, causing father and son to fall out.Myles severed his ties with the Turner family and returned to his hometown with Leah, becoming a language teacher in the village.Not only that, but Sonnet also knew that Myles had studied under Mr. Oddie when he was in North City. Back then, his pen name was Mr. Edelweiss. In other words, the Everglow that Sonnet gave Will Brooks was painted by him!Some time ago, Will needed money so he sold the Everglow painting on the market. Coincidentally, a collector from
"What's going on?" Sonnet asked.Zyra held Sonnet's hand. "Actually, we're family."Sonnet was puzzled, but Logan smiled and said, "Zyra is Shay's biological aunt. The test results are out today, proving that she is indeed related to Little Shay!""Ah… What's going on?" Sonnet was very surprised.Zyra held her hand and explained, "Before my mother passed away, she told me something. She said that I had a biological sister. Three days after she was born, she was secretly carried away and sold by my patriarchal grandmother. Later, my mother was pregnant with me and never said anything for so many years. She only told me this before she passed away."She said that she asked around later and said that my biological sister was sold to Harbor City. This was also why I chose to accept the designer position at Eternal Jewelry back then. I always wanted to fulfill my mother's dream before she passed away and find my sister in my lifetime.Back then, when I saw Yasmin Finch's photo, I susp
Hayden immediately became alert. "You're too tired. Rest first. I'll pick you up for supper."Suki didn't refuse. He immediately drove off.There were no cars in the middle of the night, so he arrived in ten minutes. After calling Suki, she came out in less than two minutes. She looked very tired as if she couldn't even walk.Hayden immediately went out to open the door for her. As soon as she got in, she leaned against the back of the seat and sighed."Are you tired?" Hayden asked."That's right. We went to the scene first and then dissected it without stopping. The corpse this time was a little complicated. We didn't even have time to eat."Hayden's heart ached when he heard her words. He quickly handed her the supper. "Hurry up and eat some."Suki didn't take it. "I don't have much of an appetite now. Let's eat later. I'll rest for a while."Hayden started the car. "Take a few bites first. Don't starve yourself.""It’s already ruined." Suki smiled bitterly. "When I first st
"If you have something to say, just say it." Suki looked ahead."Well, when we were eating just now, what did you think when you saw that they were getting married?""I don't think anything of it. Everyone's life is different," Suki said calmly.Hayden stole a glance at her. "Haven't you ever thought—"When he saw Suki turn to look at him, he choked on the second half of his sentence."What are you thinking about? Marriage?" Suki chuckled. "What's so good about marriage? Once you get married, you're trapped. You can't even change to another man."Hayden immediately felt stifled. This woman still wanted to change men…No, how could his woman think of changing men? He had to work harder so she didn't have the time or energy to think of changing men.Or rather, he should trap her. Once she was tied up, she would not be able to escape."Besides, I'm very busy with work and my profession is scary. I don't think anyone can accept me even if I wanted to," Suki continued."That won't
Amidst the laughter, Marcus clapped his hands and said, "Lindy and I have already set a time for our wedding. You have to help!"Logan waved his hand. "Count the two of us in!"Everyone was stunned.Hayden spat at Logan. "What are you doing here?""What’s wrong with joining in the fun?" Logan rolled his eyes at him and threw down his red booklet. "I just registered my marriage!"Everyone was in an uproar and started talking at once.Zyra blushed and lowered her head. Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice. "Congratulations!"She looked up and saw Sonnet.Sonnet smiled gently. "Congratulations on finding a good man."Zyra stammered, "Madam Brooks, don't you think it's too fast?""To be honest, the first time I saw you, I felt that you and CEO Scott are too compatible. It doesn't matter if someone is fated or not. It's fine as long as their hearts are connected," Sonnet replied with a smile.Zyra also smiled.As they chatted and laughed, they came to an agreement. Maxwell and S
Sara nodded mechanically. When the two of them got into the car, she remembered to shout, "CEO Scott, lunch today is already very good. There's no need to treat us anymore!"Logan smiled and said to Zyra, "Your colleague is an honest girl."The car started, but it was not in the direction of Zyra's house."Where are we going?""I'm taking you to see someone.""Who?"Logan smiled but did not answer. "You'll know when you get there."Half an hour later, when she saw the cemetery, Zyra knew who Logan had brought her to meet.She followed Logan silently to Yasmin's tombstone. She actually felt a little guilty, as if she had stolen someone else's position.Logan placed the white rose in his hand in front of the tombstone and said softly, "Yasmin, I'm going to marry a wife. You won't be angry, right?"Zyra looked at Logan in surprise. Marry a wife…She had only slept with him twice, and he was already going to marry her?The surroundings were silent except for the sound of the br
"Isn't your man handsome?" Logan closed his eyes and suddenly spoke.Zyra was stunned for a moment before her face turned red. She turned around shyly."He's just like a bandit. What's so handsome about him…" she said contentiously."Bandit?" Logan raised his eyebrows and looked at Zyra's smooth shoulders.He recalled the taste of last night and his heart began to stir again."I was a gentleman last night. You haven't yet seen your man acting like a bandit!"As soon as he finished speaking, he pounced…Zyra regretted saying those words and inciting a new round of "war". She did not expect that fellow's words to be true. It turned out that he could still be a little more "bandit"!As they left, she hugged him and asked, "Who am I?""You're my Little Zyra, Little Zyra."Zyra was completely relieved.That morning, Logan drove her to the office.In the afternoon, Zyra was about to go for lunch with her colleagues when she suddenly heard a commotion outside. Then, Sara brought a
There was an indescribable melancholy in her heart, sour and bitter."The investigation might be because of my wife, but it’s not about helping you," Logan replied as he looked at her face.At this moment, he was very clear that the face in front of him was not Yasmin's face at all. Other than the fact that she looked similar to Yasmin, the rest of her features did not look alike at all.She looked weak, but she was very strong on the inside. She looked heartless, but her emotions were very fragile. She was like a blade of grass in the wilderness, growing tenaciously, growing the toughness that belonged to grass and the beauty of grass.She and Yasmin were two completely different women!"Then you're helping me…" Zyra asked softly. When she asked this, her heart was beating wildly."Don't I have a favor to ask of you?" Logan smiled. "I wanted you to see my son once a week."Wasn't it because he wanted her to pretend to be his son's mother?Zyra was a little disappointed, but Lo
