"He said it is in the Second Hospital...""Are you in the hotel now?" Lovey should be living in the hotel these days."Yes.""Okay, then wait for me, I will pick you up now, and accompany you to the hospital!" Maxwell said.After he hung up, Sonnet went to open the door. "Just text me when you're done, I'll go back first."Maxwell took her hand. "Darling, I'm sorry...""I'm your wife, why are you sorry? The Cattle family is the one who saved you back then, you should help them. Hurry up now and go, I won’t misunderstand or anything like that!"Maxwell was completely relieved by what Sonnet said, his darling wife was always so understanding!After Maxwell drove to the hotel to pick up Lovey, they went to the Second Hospital where they found Scout. Half his face was covered in blood and he had just come out of the emergency room with a dressing on his head."Brother!" Lovey exclaimed as her legs went limp.Maxwell helped Lovey, and asked Scout, "Is the injury serious?"Scout s
In a daze, Lovey asked, "How do you know?""Mr. Pine, a barrister, assisted me in obtaining my wages. The contractor stated that the barrister was present to assist me. What do we even have in common? I believe he is the person Maxwell hired! Mr. Pine is said to be as well-known and powerful as the four young masters of Harbor City. Such a powerful person would listen to Maxwell, implying that Maxwell has extensive connections!"Scout became more spirited as he spoke as if he saw hope for the future. "Lovey, can you find out if it was Maxwell who helped you? If it is Maxwell, you can bravely pursue him. As your brother, I support you! ""Brother! What are you talking about?! He has a wife!" Lovey was angry, but her heart was thumping."So what if he has a wife? He can still get a divorce!""I...I have seen his wife. She is beautiful and elegant—""Aren't you lovely as well? When you wore those new outfits that day, I almost didn't recognize you. You are as attractive as the TV st
"Why? Can’t he work at the current construction site?" Maxwell asked in surprise."The contractor is probably annoyed that my brother engaged a lawyer, so they don't want him anymore.""It's okay not to work for that small construction team. I'll find a proper construction company for your brother later," Maxwell said casually."Then will you be free tomorrow, Max? Let us treat you to dinner, Max. Please don't refuse us!"After Lovey finished speaking, she held her breath and waited for Maxwell's answer.Maxwell was silent for a while, then replied, "I'm free, evening would be better.""Okay, I'll send you the address tomorrow afternoon!" Lovey cheered.After they hung up, Scout immediately came over. "Look, look, he is capable. You only mentioned that I lost my job, and he replied that he could get a job for me easily. Which proves that he is very well-connected. Sister, you must hold on to this huge pillar, a man of this caliber is hard to find!”Lovey bit her lip. "But...but.
At noon the next day, Maxwell received the check-out information and found that Lovey had left the hotel. Just as he was in deep thought, Lovey sent a message with a GPS location. [Hi Max, I don’t think any dishes in a restaurant would tickle your fancy, so I plan to cook you some hometown specialties at our place. If you don’t mind shabby, why don’t you come here?]Maxwell responded with a smile: [Hometown specialties are great. I will be there at 6:30 pm sharp.]When he got off work, he bought some pastries and drove to the location Lovey sent him.This place was next to Westfield Hospital. It was an old community, probably rented by Scout's workers.He arrived at the GPS location and parked the car downstairs. In the car, he took off the fake beard and the silicone skin on his face, tidied his hair a little, and went upstairs.Before he could knock, the door opened.Lovey appeared behind the door, wearing the clothes Maxwell bought her last time. Her cheeks were flushed, pro
Maxwell had no choice. He waited for the door to close before looking back at Lovey.After several glasses of wine, Lovey’s cheeks were flushed. Her fair skin made her look soft and rosy.When she noticed Maxwell looking at her, she bit her lower lip. Her actions were probably motivated by shyness, but they exuded a charming come-hither allure.Maxwell stared at her blankly, but Sonnet's face appeared in his heart.‘I don’t think I’ve seen my wifey have alcohol. Um...Her face would be red too, and her lips are even redder. Her lips are beautiful, and they must be redder than Lovey's.....’His heart fluttered as he thought about Sonnet. ‘After she gives birth to Lil Three, I must let my wifey drink once and then kiss her little mouth.’Just as he was fantasizing, he suddenly felt a soft hand caressing his face. In shock, he came back to his senses. He realized that Lovey had moved to his side at some point and was now cuddling in his arms. She reached out and caressed his face!W
She looked at Maxwell. His face was cold, completely different from his usual gentleness and elegance."I have a wife, and you knew that, Lovey. Do you still want to throw yourself at me?" Maxwell asked coldly.Lovey bit her lips hard and went all the way. "Yes! Even if you have a wife, I still want to be with you. As long as you can give me your heart, I don't care about the rest. Even if I have to wait, even if I have to be a shady mistress, I’m willing to do so!"She was drunk, but drunk words were sober thoughts. What she dared not say when she was sober, all came out naturally when she was drunk.Maxwell sneered. "Mistress? Lovey, have you forgotten why you came to repeat your studies? Did you go to university just to be someone else's mistress? I'm so disappointed in you!"As he spoke, he pushed Lovey far away.Lovey took advantage of the situation and fell to the ground, thinking that he would never have the heart to watch her fall.Unexpectedly, Maxwell was ruthless indee
Maxwell's mood immediately improved. "My wife is so sweet!"Sonnet walked back to the unit door with a smile. She turned, waved to him, and went in.After she entered the door, Sonnet’s smile gradually disappeared.Just now, she smelled alcohol on Maxwell's body, and she caught a whiff of fragrance as well. It was a faint smell of feminine cosmetics.No prizes for guessing. Lovey must have had physical contact with Maxwell, but to what extent...She raised her head slightly. ‘Presumably, that was Lovey's wishful thinking. I have absolute confidence in Maxwell!’However, Sonnet felt she needed to hit Lovey back at the right time.Maxwell was taking a shower at home. Over there, Scout had just returned to his residence.He asked after he opened the door, "Why? Didn't it work?"Earlier, Lovey called him to ask where he was and told him to come back quickly.Lovey sat at the table in shame. After her brother spoke, she immediately raised her head and rolled her eyes at him. "Brot
It was the last prenatal checkup of the year, and Sonnet did not let Johnson accompany her.Firstly, Johnson was busy with work due to a lot of year-end tasks in the company. Second, she did not want Johnson to accompany her all the time. The person she truly wanted to be with was Maxwell.Lately, Lindy was relatively free, so she volunteered to accompany Sonnet to the hospital.Everything went well during the prenatal checkup. After the inspection was over, Sonnet stroked her stomach and said to Lindy, "It's almost noon, I have a sudden craving for beef noodles. I know there's a good beef noodle shop in front. Let's go have some before going home?""Okay, I'll get the car," Lindy responded and was about to leave.Sonnet stopped her. "What car are you talking about? There's no place to park over there. The sun is beautiful today, let's go for a walk. Then, we'll walk back afterward and drive home. We would digest better with a walk."Lindy agreed that it was a good idea. She took
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
