Jamie finished work and left with Carol in the evening. As soon as they came downstairs, he was greeted by a pleasant floral fragrance. Then, a gentle breeze blew, and it felt soft and warm. A branch of hawthorn extended over the black Bentley. It was white as snow and quite beautiful.Carol reached out to try to touch it, but her short arms couldn’t reach it. With a simple snap, Jamie easily picked one and placed a small white flower in her palm. Carol exclaimed, "Wow!" She was so overjoyed that she even gave her dad a sniff of it. Jamie's heart softened further.As they got into the car, Carol sweetly said in a soft voice, “Dad, I want to eat baby food. Larissa said other kids often go eat baby food with their mommies and daddies, and Carol wants to go too.”At that moment, Jamie felt that he would do anything for Carol. He would even pluck the moon from the sky if she wanted. “Sure.” He fastened his seatbelt and indulgently agreed. Ten minutes later, the car stopped in

Jamie turned and walked into the restaurant. Paityn composed herself and smiled softly at Monty, “You go change into your clothes. Let me see if they fit. If not, there’s still time to make alterations.” Monty was a considerate man. He took a tissue and gently wiped away her tears. Looking at her delicate features stirred up something in his heart. He loved Paityn. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be thinking about marriage. Paityn looked up. As they locked eyes, there was a magnetic pull between them. It was a kind of acceptance that seemed to say they could endure anything together. Even after they parted ways some time down the road, Paityn still believed that Monty was a very suitable man for marriage.Monty followed the waiter to the changing room. His phone rang just after he had put on his formal shirt and trousers. He saw that it was his son, Howard Verdan, calling, and he answered quickly. The child’s frantic voice came through. “Dad, Mom has fainted.” Monty’s heart sank.

After a while, Jamie gently stepped on the gas pedal and drove toward the setting sun. The last traces of crimson clouds lingered in the sky, mingling softly with pale purple amidst the encroaching darkness and creating a vibrant scene. The car moved slowly, seemingly with purpose. Meanwhile, Carol sat in the backseat and sang off-key children's songs. Jamie held the steering wheel in a relaxed demeanor. Paityn bit into the hamburger. At this moment, the concept of a family began to take shape, but she dared not think too deeply about it. Instead, she asked him in a muffled voice, “Where are you driving to?” Jamie glanced at her in the rearview mirror and replied softly, “Aren't you the one who wanted to take a walk? Those high heels are too expensive and uncomfortable. It's just as good to enjoy the night view from the car.” Paityn didn't say anything more. She silently munched on the hamburger. After a moment, Carol handed her a cup of cola and said cheerfully, “Daddy say

Jamie looked at Paityn. Naturally, he didn’t expect the two of them to sleep with Carol. She was Monty's future wife, and he knew she was currently holding onto her purity. Jamie just wanted to see Paityn's expression and check how much of the past she still remembered. Their gazes were locked, and everything was unspoken. Neither of them had forgotten, not a single bit. However, these things were inexpressible. After a while, Jamie finally said to Carol in a hoarse voice, “In a few days, you’ll be able to sleep with Mommy.” Carol pouted unhappily, “I meant sleeping with both Daddy and Mommy. I saw on television that everyone sleeps together.” As a father, Jamie didn’t know how to explain. So, he simply said, “In a few days, Daddy and Mommy will sleep with you.”“Jamie!” Paityn couldn't help but scold. Her delicate brows furrowed slightly in the dim light, revealing a vulnerability she rarely showed. Jamie quietly gazed at her. The air seemed to freeze. It was filled wit

The next day was Carol's interview at the kindergarten. Initially, Paityn wanted to meet at the kindergarten gate, but Jamie said he would pick her up at home. She didn't want to argue over such trivial matters. So, she agreed. Just after Paitynhung up the phone, she met her mother's thoughtful gaze. Jennifer spoke up, “Jamie came by yesterday afternoon with Carol and an assistant. He didn’t say much; he just left some supplements for me. They looked like some rare good stuff.” Paityn was taken aback. Jennifer continued, “I haven't been by your side for the past few years, and I don’t even know about your past relationship situations. I feel like a negligent mother and shouldn't meddle in your love life. "However, I have to say something. I can tell that Jamie has feelings for you. He’s just a bit too proud, like a kindergarten boy who likes a girl and bullies her to get her attention. That’s how I see Jamie.” Paityn heard this and felt a pang of melancholy, but she repli

The tenderness of this moment surpassed all their countless intimate encounters. Jamie had helped her many times, providing both financial support and resources. However, such warmth was rare. Paityn already had tears welling up in her eyes. Now, she felt an even stronger urge to cry. Still, she desperately held back, not wanting to lose her composure in front of everyone. She gently blinked. Jamie kept holding her hand tightly, and they looked like a loving couple, like a genuine husband and wife, like qualified parents for Carol.Over there, Kaelyn personally presented a new worksheet. Carol didn’t have to write or draw; she just needed to identify the things in the pictures. Carol cuddled in Kaelyn's embrace, and her big and dark eyes sparkled as she exclaimed, “This is a chick, and this is a duck.” Kaelyn's eyes were filled with tears of admiration as she praised Carol, “You’re so smart, sweetheart.” Carol looked toward Jamie, her delicate, fair face beaming wit

As soon as the words left Paityn's lips, her mouth was kissed. It was a gentle kiss, and it felt cautious and tender as if Jamie were treating a rare treasure. Paityn opened her eyes, and so did Jamie; they gazed at each other, and Paityn felt like crying at that moment. Jamie had never kissed Paityn like this before. A single tear slid down her cheeks. It was salty and wet. Just when she thought he was going to let her go, he tightened his embrace around the back of her neck and began to kiss her fiercely. Jamie kissed Paityn deeply and passionately as if he wanted to claim her completely, while her tears flowed fiercely and uncontrollably, from beginning to end.After a long while, Jamie finally released her. Paityn was left dazed by the kiss. She was completely unsure of where or when she was, while he gently pressed his forehead against hers, whispering, “You can report me for assault now, or slap me to relieve your anger.” Two seconds later, a crisp slap echoed against hi

Jamie was taken aback. It took him a moment to regain his voice. “What? Say that again.” Wylie’s voice trembled with excitement as she repeated the news and shared what she had learned. “Mr. Monty's ex-wife seems to be ill. It appears that he is remarrying out of a sense of responsibility, to provide psychological comfort to her.” “Well, it seems Monty is quite commendable in this situation.” Whether Monty was good or not, Jamie wasn't sure, but he felt that this decision was exceptionally wise.Jamie's demeanor shifted completely. He even instructed Wylie to inquire about the illness, suggesting that they could find a doctor for Colette if necessary. He needed her to live a long and healthy life. Wylie nodded in agreement. “I’ll take care of it. Don’t worry, Mr. Jamie. Lockwood Corporation is a pharmaceutical company, and we have some effective targeted drugs that we can arrange for Ms. Colette to try.” After he hung up the phone, Jamie sat alone in the car for a long t

In the early morning, the first rays of sunlight bathed the earth, signaling a joyous occasion at the Sanders family home. The youngest daughter of Noah and Gwynn was finally getting married.

That night, Jamie and Paityn returned home with their daughter Carol. As soon as they arrived, Carol went to do her homework, while Paityn went to check on their youngest son, Colten Lockwood. The housekeeper was taking care of him and, upon hearing footsteps, turned her head and softly said, "Madam, you're back? He hasn't woken up at all, he's such a good boy."Paityn smiled lightly and signaled for the housekeeper to go downstairs and rest.When the door closed, she looked down at the sleeping Colten. The little one, only eight months old, resembled his father completely; almost like a miniature copy of Jamie. Even Carol, at times, would look at her brother’s face and marvel: "It’s really a masterpiece from God!"Jamie replied, "You even know what a masterpiece is?"Carol teased, "A husband’s looks are the wife’s glory!"Paityn quietly said to Jamie, “She must have seen a supermodel runway show."Jamie immediately asked, "Did she like it?"Paityn didn't answer, just smiled.

On the second floor, Gwen was trying on her wedding dress for tomorrow. Just as Zion had wished, it was a traditional Zutriysteinian wedding.The red wedding gown was crafted by the top artisans from Zutriystein, elegant and dignified. The headpiece she wore was adorned with wild pearls; each gem was carefully embedded, and the headpiece alone cost tens of millions. A substantial amount of money had been spent.The woman in the mirror was stunningly beautiful. Gwen gently touched her headpiece and muttered to herself, "Zion really doesn’t mind spending money on this little hobby of his."Gwynn, as a mother, patted her head. "This little girl really doesn’t know when to keep quiet, but luckily, she’s married well and is right here beside me..."She had given a generous wedding gift, exactly the same as when Holly got married. Like Holly, Gwen didn’t want any shares of the Sanders Group. The money that Zion earned was enough to support both of them and his small hobbies.Meanwhile

Ignacio said, "We can’t take care of both of you."Holly was at a loss for words.Lucius was at that lively age, but he was raised by his father and had good manners. When he saw Ocelotte, he respectfully greeted him, saying, "Second Uncle."Ocelotte patted his little head, thinking that the boy seemed sturdier than his own children, possibly because Molly was too fragile. He made a mental note to make sure Yeager got some extra nutrients when he went back.The black Rolls-Royce Phantom sped down the highway, getting them back to the Qiao family mansion before evening.The Sanders family’s sons had all moved out, leaving only Gwen still living at home. Holly, who rarely came back, was also staying at the house. She didn’t refuse, planning to stay for a few days before heading to Silvercrest to visit her biological parents and pay respects.The car pulled into the Sanders Residence, and the house was lit up brightly.In the courtyard parking area, luxury cars were parked everywhe

In the evening, Gwen was preparing to leave work.In the parking lot, she spotted Zion’s car, but it was empty. Just then, a school leader passed by and said to her, “Zion came to school. There’s a donation ceremony happening in the auditorium. You should go check it out. "Then, you two can head home together afterward. On a cold day like this, a nice dinner would be perfect. What a cozy idea!”Gwen playfully replied, “You really know how to enjoy life.”The leader, holding a bag of groceries, laughed, “See? Your teacher’s wife has been nagging me since morning to go home and cook while babysitting the grandkids.”Gwen smiled softly, watching him leave.In the sky, clouds glowed orange and yellow, their edges tinged with gold.She carried a thermos as she walked toward the auditorium. Along the way, a few students noticed her and started chirping excitedly, cheekily calling her “Ms. Gwen.”Gwen corrected them, “It’s Ms. Gwen.”The students laughed and teased, “Ms. Gwen! Mr. Z

Gwen stared dazedly at the man.Zion, dressed in a black coat, stood tall in the study, exuding an oppressive aura. He walked toward her and pulled the teary-eyed girl, her face streaked like a little tabby cat, into his arms. One hand gently smoothed her hair as his voice softened to the extreme, "Still saying you didn’t cry."Gwen leaned against his shoulder, mumbling, "You did it on purpose.""Are you at least a little touched?"She pounded on him twice more in response.Zion chuckled lowly, letting the girl vent while his heart ached silently.These past five years had been filled with fear and uncertainty for him. He had been afraid that before he could make a name for himself, Gwen would fall for someone else. If that happened, what could he possibly use to ask her to come back to him?The love story of a poor boy and a rich girl might've existed in novels, but the reality was often harsh.Gwen didn’t care, but he couldn’t bear to let her endure hardship.Now, as they
I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 1458
Zion and Gwen's marriage seemed inevitable, with no one putting up any resistance. Occasionally, Gwen even had a strange illusion.It all went so smoothly that the years of separation seemed like they had never happened, as if she and Zion had always been together. After their reunion, he didn’t even ask her about her life abroad and treated her just as he did before.She was no longer as youthful and tender, but Zion still saw her as if she were a 20-year-old girl. Gwen felt a bit dejected, thinking to herself, he must just like girls around 18-year-old.But unfortunately, the spring river flows eastward and cannot return!Zion only smiled.In winter, the days grew shorter. After work, Gwen arrived at Zion's villa, but he had not yet come home. The two housekeepers had already started preparing dinner.When Gwen got out of the car, she received a call from Zion. Her voice was soft and tender.“When will you be back?”On the other end, Zion checked the time and said, “I’ll be

Zion noticed Gwen gazing at him with those wide, expectant eyes again. With a chuckle, he reached into the pocket of his trench coat, pulled out a sleek wallet, and carefully extracted a platinum card. He placed it in her outstretched hand and said with a smile, “This is my secondary card. There’s no credit limit.” Gwen gasped softly, then teased, “Wow, aren’t you generous? Thank you, Teacher Qin.” Zion gave her a light tap on the head. Not missing a beat, Gwen wrapped her arms around his neck and grinned mischievously, “Thank you, my sugar daddy.” Zion’s response was to pull her close, cupping her cheeks as he kissed her fiercely. Though he once carried himself as an educator and now as a refined businessman, he found himself utterly smitten by her playful antics. After the kiss, Zion leaned close to Gwen's ear and murmured something uncharacteristically crude that sent a shiver down her spine. He playfully nipped her nose. “Turns out you’ve got a thing for bad boy
