"That would be great, thank you!" Sonnet clasped her hands together to express her gratitude to him."Since you’re thanking me, can you stop being so mean to me? If there’s anything, could you express your opinions calmly?" Maxwell pretended to be aggrieved.Sonnet's mood turned better from being able to meet her idol. "I'm not being mean to you. I was just a little anxious to talk to you just now. Then again, didn’t you raise your voice at me too? Forget it, we’re even now. Let us both pay attention to that next time.”The two smiled at each other. The unhappiness earlier disappeared, and the topic suddenly shifted to Professor Rivers.As they chatted their way to Lux Club, Sonnet was rather surprised to find that Johnson was quite accomplished in children's educational psychology.In the afternoon, Sonnet had time to think about what happened recently as she took care of Shay in Lux Club. After she got home at night, she had to tell Lindy about it.Lindy smacked her lips. "This
Once Sonnet got home, she excitedly shared with Lindy what she had seen today.After listening, Lindy suddenly said, "Have you noticed that you seem to like Johnson a lot more now?"Sonnet was startled.She paid close attention to her heart. As Lindy stated, she seemed to have a lot of affection for Johnson, especially after learning today that Johnson, like her, has a heart that cares about children's educational psychology.With a common ideal, she felt that the distance between herself and Johnson had been drawn closer!"Also, when you quarreled with him that day, have you considered the deeper reasons? Are you angry just because there are things in Jaybie’s bag that are inappropriate for children? Or you are upset because there’s a possibility that he had sex with other women?" Lindy said again.Sonnet's heart skipped a beat, feeling a guilty conscience.‘Is that so? Is it because I am a little angry inside? Could it be that my affection for him has begun to surpass that of
As the car started, Sonnet thought about the emotional changes in her heart before and felt that she could not face him. She lowered her head for a while and felt that she should ask him for clarification.She looked up at him abruptly and caught Johnson sneaking a peek at her."What... what's wrong?" His ears turned red.‘Oh, I would be shy too if wifey caught me checking her out!’Sonnet looked at his profile and began. "There’s a reason I quarreled with you that day.""What’s...the reason?" Maxwell asked, holding the steering wheel tightly and feeling nervous for no reason."I found an empty condom wrapper in the paper bag containing Jaybie’s superhero suit the other day."Maxwell turned to look at her in surprise, and quickly explained, "That’s definitely not mine!""Whose is that?""I don't know! I haven't even seen any packaging!""Did you personally buy the clothes for Jaybie and Lune?""Yes.""Where did you put it after you bought it?""I put it in the closet.""N
One day later, Sonnet received a report from Maxwell. "I’ve investigated carefully. It was the saleswoman of that store who just took over the job not long ago. She had sex with her boyfriend at home before work, and she casually put the used wrapper in her pocket. When she was helping me pack my purchase, it probably fell out of her pocket and into Jaybie’s gift bag. She was unaware of it. Only when I sent someone to look for her did she realize it was in a customer’s shopping bag."When he finished, he looked at her innocently. "Now do you believe me? That thing is indeed not mine!"Sonnet nodded. She did not expect this was the second possibility Lindy had considered. She was probably too caught up in conspiracy theories and always suspicious that someone was doing something bad in the shadows.When it came to trickery, she was reminded of Maggie.‘Now that I’ve already discussed the condom matter with Johnson, why don’t I ask him about Maggie as well?’"What's going on between
Marcus asked with a smile, "Have you won your wife’s heart as Johnson?""Wait! If Johnson won his wife's heart, does that mean that Maxwell lost his wife's heart? Maxwell, you’ve lost your wife, so why are you being all high and mighty here?" Hayden said disdainfully.Howard followed suit and laughed. "Johnson, you can't even get your wife. Why are you so proud?"Logan clapped his hands and smiled, "This is a paradox. He’s Maxwell, and he’s also Johnson. No matter who gets Sonnet's heart, he’ll lose. He’ll never beat himself. Hahaha!""Yes, those of us watching this drama are so happy!" Hayden booed.Maxwell glanced at him gloomily. "Hayden, your skin must be itching right now, huh?”"My skin isn’t itching, but my fist is. Tell me, when will you fulfill your promise to be my boxing partner?" Hayden said angrily."I’ll beat you up first, then make good on the promise!" Maxwell said and pounced at him.Maxwell was counting down the days for the rest of this week.He counted the
The day of the long-awaited prenatal check-up, the one that Maxwell had been counting down to, finally arrived. This morning, he was so excited that he woke up early and could not fall asleep.He went online and searched carefully for information on prenatal check-ups.His wife was five months pregnant now. This time, they would do a four-dimensional ultrasound. The four-dimensional ultrasound could let them see the baby’s face!He was very excited thinking of this. ‘I wonder if the child in my wifey’s womb is a boy or a girl. Will they look like me or Wifey?‘I hope she’s a little girl so that I can spoil her like a little princess!’Sonnet had just woken up when he knocked on her door."So early?" she asked in surprise when she saw Maxwell at the door."I can't sleep. I'm all ready. We can go right away!"Sonnet looked at the bag in his hand in amusement. "What did you bring?""All kinds of food. Don't you need to fast for a blood test or something? I brought you some food a
In the office, Zachary heard everything the two of them said in the car.He punched the table heavily. He did not expect that Sonnet and Maxwell would progress so quickly. Sonnet had already decided to date Johnson!This meant that his plan needed to be brought forward!At 10:30 in the morning, Maxwell carefully assisted Sonnet out of the obstetrics and gynecology department of Westfield Hospital.Sonnet looked at her side. A pregnant woman who was about to give birth zoomed past her like the wind. She blushed and said to Maxwell, "Okay, my belly is not big enough that you have to help me walk!""I must support you. My precious daughter is in your stomach. I must protect her!" Maxwell replied seriously.If it was not for the fear of bad press, he would have carried his wife.Sonnet laughed. "How do you know it's a daughter?""Look at this delicate little face. It's clearly a daughter, okay?"Sonnet looked at the slightly fuzzy little face in the four-dimensional ultrasound sca
Maxwell called Zachary as he walked down the stairs. He wanted to ask him which hotel he was in, but the phone rang many times without an answer. Maxwell got in touch with Zachary’s assistant only to find out that he was at Grand Ocean Hotel.He drove straight to Grand Ocean Hotel and entered the private room, just in time to see Zachary being flanked by two pot-bellied middle-aged men. Zachary sat between the men, while they toasted him shot after shot! Zachary was so wobbly that he could not stand still. He kept saying that he could not drink anymore. However, the two men would not listen and continued to persuade him to drink!Maxwell hurried over to push the men away and said coldly, "Mr. Strombold can't drink much. If something happens to him, can you take responsibility for it?"He sized up these men as he spoke. He felt that these men seemed a little strange, and he was not sure what kind of business Zachary was talking to them about."Drinking is inevitable in business di
