Mason hurried back to the cafe in a panic: "Sonnet, what are you doing?! I told you everything I should have said before, and you want to expose the video again?"Sonnet sneered. "Have you said everything you needed to say? Caitlyn was there that night!"Mason was silent."Okay, since you won't tell me the truth, then I don't have to be polite to you!" Sonnet said coldly.She sent a voice note. "Help me publish Mason's video on the Internet!""No, don’t!""I said I wouldn't post your video if you were honest with me, but you clearly let me down!"Mason's face twitched a few times, and finally he let out a low growl. "I’ll tell you! I’ll tell you okay!"Sonnet smiled slightly, sent a voice note to pause the uploading, and looked at him leisurely. "Tell me, what happened that night?"Mason was dejected. "I really didn't see that man that night.""Then who saw it?"The "many men" that Caitlyn mentioned was definitely not out of thin air, there must be something fishy in it."N
Sonnet was surprised. "So fast?"Lindy was excited too. "Maybe you’re lucky. Not long after you hung up on me last night, a college classmate who hadn't contacted me for a long time called. I casually asked during the chat. Who knew she really did know a private detective! And she has a good relationship with him too, so he can give you a discount!"Sonnet grinned. "That's great, please give his phone number to me, quick!"After work in the evening, Sonnet went straight to the cafe where she had made an appointment with the private detective.The private detective was a young man, barely in his thirties, with ordinary looks and ordinary clothes, the kind that disappears in the crowd."Hi, I’m Nick Warton, what do you want me to investigate?" The private detective was very efficient and got straight to the point."I want you to help me investigate a person.""Who?""It’s......"The two of them finished talking in less than ten minutes, Nick smiled at Sonnet. "I have fully under
The principal's smile suddenly became awkward. "Beneath...what?""Is someone helping me behind the scenes and putting pressure on the Yale family?" Sonnet cut to the point."No...not really...even if there is, I don't know..."The principal looked uncomfortable and awkward."Who called you that day? After you answered the phone, Caitlyn Yale's attitude did a 180. Don't tell me it was her conscience."Sonnet’s voice dropped low. "If I'm not wrong, someone was watching on the surveillance camera at that time, right?"She did not notice this at first, but when the unsatisfied Caitlyn came to taunt her spitefully, stating that she had snagged a big shot. When she looked back, she understood.‘Why did Caitlyn slap herself in front of me, hugged my leg and begged, then drove by to intentionally insult me?’The only logical explanation at that time was the fact that someone was watching the surveillance, and the principal also pointed at the camera, which forced Caitlyn to do so.Hea
"It’s not deliberate. I liked him quite a bit in the first place." Lune replied.After the children finished eating, Sonnet went back to the Brooks household.As soon as she entered the door, Maxwell's tall figure greeted her as he looked at her hand expectantly. "Cream puff!"Sonnet smiled and handed the box to him, then he happily opened it, helping himself.Nom nom nom he went. Then he added, "Add more color color rice, that will be good!"Sonnet poked her head out and saw that he was referring to the sprinkles. She could not help but smile. She never expected that he, like Lune and Jaybie, would like sprinkles on cream puffs!She let her mind wander, then suddenly a waft of creamy sweet scent floated into her nose.She came back to her senses and saw Maxwell, with a naive smile, holding a piece of cream puff and lifted it to her mouth. "Wifey, you eat too."Sonnet subconsciously wanted to pick up the cream puff in his hand.But he moved his hand away, and then insisted on
‘One thousand?‘Not even the cost is enough!’Sonnet looked at him in surprise. "You..."Nick smiled. "It's unexpectedly cheap, isn't it? Since you were introduced by a friend, I'll give you a friendly price."Sonnet thought, ‘Lindy's classmate must be really tight with him!’"Well then, I'll recommend more contacts to you in the future, and I'll treat you to dinner today." Sonnet said heartily.Nick waved his hand. "Nah, you don’t need to buy me a meal, just introduce me if you have business."‘Don’t play around, the boss knows this woman, how dare I have dinner with her?’After he left, Sonnet took the pile of materials and went directly to Central Hospital.Caitlyn was arrogantly reprimanding the young doctors under her in the office. Sonnet knocked on the door and entered.Seeing that it was her, Caitlyn immediately stared at Sonnet. "Why are you here?!""I need to talk to Deputy Director Yale, in private." Sonnet said leisurely."I have nothing to say to you!" Caitlyn
The panic that flashed across Caitlyn's face did not escape her eyes, along with the former’s fake pretense was too much.This shows that her speculation was likely to be true.Intense rage welled up in her heart, causing the veins on her fist to pop."The man who defiled me!" she repeated through gritted teeth.Caitlyn's face twitched. "I don't know what you are talking about."Sonnet turned around and left. "You just wait to be ruined and go to jail!""Wait!" Caitlyn yelled, but Sonnet ignored her completely.When Sonnet yanked open the door, finally, Caitlyn could not hold back anymore. "I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you the truth, okay?"Sonnet locked the door again and looked back at her. "Speak!"Caitlyn lowered her head. "That's right, I hired the man that night.""Who is that man?" Sonnet asked immediately.Caitlyn shook her head. "I don't know, because my cousin arranged for that person.""Call your cousin, now!""He...he didn't know either, he just asked his street bu
The afternoon next day, Sonnet took Shay to Harrison Estate.The three children had a great time playing in the yard. Sophia watched them with a smile and asked Sonnet, "What about Lune’s kindergarten?""I plan to find another kindergarten nearby for her.""Alright, I'll keep an eye on the neighborhood when I'm shopping for groceries these next two days."Sophia replied, then suddenly raised her head to look outside the courtyard gate.Sonnet looked over the palisade of the fenced yard. She saw two women standing at the gate, and one of them was the principal of Paragon Kindergarten.She hurried over to open the door. "Madam Principal, why are you here?"The principal nodded and bowed. "Lune’s mommy, I am here to apologize to you on behalf of the kindergarten. This is the supervisor of the Preschool Department of Paragon Education Group."Sonnet looked at the person beside her, she was a woman in her forties with an amiable face."Hello Lune’s mommy, our kindergarten did not ha
Jaybie and Lune watched their mother take Shay away in the car at the door. Suddenly, Lune stretched sideways and said to Jaybie, "Brother, let's go over to the vine wall to catch dragonflies?"There was a wall in the community, which was covered with various vines. In the early summer evening, many dragonflies flew around there.Jaybie replied with a smile. "Okay, we have to wear mosquito-proof pants and get a net.”The two children entered the house, "fully armed" against mosquitoes, and then walked out of the courtyard with catching nets on their shoulders.Sophia called out at the door. "Remember to come back for dinner!"The two children responded without looking back, and walked forward.They did not go directly to the vine wall, but detoured to the Brooks household first."Uncle Maxwell!" Lune shouted through the courtyard door.The window on the second floor opened, and Maxwell poked his head out from inside."Are you coming with us to the vine wall to catch dragonflie
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
