Mason pulled out a cigarette, but he didn’t light it.

His eyes grew darker. She wasn’t sure what was on his mind. Worried that he might’ve gotten upset, she soothed him in an affectionate tone, “I’ve got my own salary! I was reluctant to spend it before.

“Now, I can spend a portion of it whenever I feel like it! I can rent myself a bigger apartment with it. What do you think?”

She loved him and she was willing to let go of her pride for him. “Furthermore, I’ve got nothing now, Mason! Just let me build up my savings so I can buy an apartment for myself in the near future. It means a lot to me.”

What she said finally convinced him.

With cigarette still in his fingers, he leaned in and kissed her. Then, he pressed his forehead against hers and murmured, “I’ll hunt for a suitable apartment for you and that’s that!”

She didn’t want to bring him down again. She said, “Okay.”

He kissed her briefly again before smacking her ample behind lightly, asking her to clean the dishes. It was

    Hanging up the phone, Mason went back inside. Zoe was already awake and making breakfast. Dressed in light-colored casual wear, she tied her hair up, revealing her fair neck. Underneath the gentle glow of the morning light, she looked tender and delicate.Hugging her from behind, he kissed her neck and said, “Something came up. I can’t have breakfast with you! I’ll give you your new apartment’s key and address. You can swing by and take a look at it when you have the time. I’ll help you move in in a couple of days.”She responded, “Okay.”Then, he kissed her again and said in the most affectionate tone, “You don’t have to go to work if it still hurts.”She couldn’t help but retort. “It doesn’t hurt anymore!”He said deliberately, “Geez. Then, that means…”Pushing him away, she murmured, “You said that there’s an emergency! Hit the road already.”All of a sudden, he pinned her on the kitchen door and kissed her roughly. Slipping in his tongue, he tasted every corner of her mout

    Ever since Zoe went missing, Noah spent the past year trying to move his business from Silvercrest to Brookesville. Lockwood Corporation was still the top group company in the city’s latest financial evaluation, with Leslie’s and Noah’s companies not far behind.The Schmidts had been building up their businesses for generations, while Noah singlehandedly brought his company up to its glorious state now. Needless to say, he partook in unconventional and ruthless methods to attain success.Now that he traveled back to Brookesville, Gwynn was left behind in Nihonburg. She was still the same after all these years. Her mind was still that of a child, always clinging to him. She was fearful of him, but she could never leave him.She gave birth to a boy. His name was Lorian and his father took care of him most of the time!Gwynn, however, had never been close to her son. Her appearance and her mind were akin to those of a teenager’s. For the past six months, she’d fought back most vehemen

    Clearing his throat, he said, “Yeah! I was with Alice yesterday.”She said fondly, “Geez. She’s mom. Why would you call her Alice instead? How shameless of you, Daddy.”Mason didn’t have a good comeback for that. He waited until the black limousine was far away before he looked at Mia and said, “Did Yanni just sass me?”She responded, “If the boot fits!”He touched his nose in response. However, he simply had too much of a good time last night. So, he didn’t let it bother him. He carried Jamie in his arms and kissed him, “Mom’s going to be back soon. You don’t have to call her Alice anymore.”Jamie might’ve been a little boy, but he knew what was going on. “Daddy loves Alice.”This time, both Mason and Mia chuckled. She grumbled light-heartedly, “It’s your fault. You didn’t do a good job with both of your kids. Now, they have sharp tongues. Zoe’s going to get on your case!”Underneath the morning sunlight, he said in a serene smile, “I’ll soothe her when that happens.”Tears fi

    It was evening. The last traces of the evening light cast its orange ray through the window and into the room. Its glow softened their features as she stared at Yanni in silence. The little girl had an impeccable appearance.Aside from being very pretty, there was something about her that Zoe loved very much. She couldn’t put her finger on it, though. After a brief pause, she couldn’t help but patted Yanni’s head and said truthfully, “You’re right. I love your dad.”Yanni said brightly, “Don’t worry, Alice. Both Jamie and I won’t get in your way of winning my dad’s heart. If you to get married someday, maybe both of us can be your flower girls.”Raising her eyes, the little girl stared into Zoe’s eyes, “We can even start calling you ‘Mom’ or ‘Mommy.’”Zoe didn’t have any comeback for that. Then, she heard the sound of a car pulling into the yard. Mason was probably back home.He parked the car and turned off the engine. Then, he got out of the car. It was quite chilly ou

    Taking the card, she flipped it over and examined it. It was a VIP bank card crested in diamonds. Needless to say, it was different from the common bank cards. They should probably have plated it with pure gold and adorned it with jades while they were at it. In any case, Zoe was concerned that he didn’t apply a bank card in her name. Instead, he used his name. That was undoubtedly an intimate gesture. She couldn’t accept it. She murmured, “We’ve known each other for barely three months, Mason. This is moving too fast.”Caressing her cheeks, he responded, “We’ve done way more intimate stuff, Zoe. How is this moving too fast?”Her face turned red at that. Then, he tucked the bank card in her pocket before leaning close to kiss her, “In fact, my salary goes into this bank card! I know I’m the director, but I get paid every month too. “Not counting the dividend, my year-round salary is a little over twenty million dollars and they’re all in here! How about it?

    Zoe’s heart started pounding!She had never thought Mason would want to have a baby with her. After all, he already had a son and a daughter. She was concerned about Yanni’s feelings in particular. The little girl was eight years old. Out of respect to her birth mother, she might not want another younger brother or sister. That wasn’t even talking about the kids’ different status in the family.She stared at him briefly before she groaned, “Mason!”Instead of responding to her, he ran his hand across her face gently. It was quiet in the night and they were alone in the car. She couldn’t help but think back to the passionate moments they shared last night. After a long time, she couldn’t take it and turned her face to the side and murmured, “It’s turned green!”He chuckled in response and stepped on the gas pedal lightly. Instead of heading to her apartment, he drove for another five minutes before pulling over by a drugstore.Unbuckling himself, he said, “I need to buy somethi

    Caressing his neck, she could barely hold onto him. His skin was covered in sweat. Beads of sweat rolled down his Adam’s apple and dripped on where their private parts were joined with each other. A puddle had collected on the floor, painting a sultry picture. She moaned and said, “Take it easy, Mason!”He couldn’t!With that said, he cared about her feelings. Gripping her arms, he wrapped them around his hips. Slowing down a little, he lowered his head and stared at her. Then, he made her look at him. Pressing against her lips, he talked dirty to her, “Look at me, Zoe. I want you to look at me. Turn me on more and make it feel all the better for me.”She couldn’t do it. She didn’t dare to look at him, let alone when his manhood slipped in and out of her. Sometimes, a lady’s pride and reluctant acceptance act like an aphrodisiac for a man. It was enough to make him go crazy. More to the point, it had been a long time since he had had sex with her. What they did last night

    “Mom… I mean, Alice?” Yanni sounded vulnerable. She was on the verge of tears.Zoe’s lips trembled. She carried Yanni into her arms, but she didn’t ask or say anything. The fact was that there could only be one answer for it. There was only one answer where it could explain how she ended up with Mason and why he treated her this way.She was his estranged wife!Doing everything she could to suppress her own feelings, she held the little girl’s hands and told Luke they’d hail a cab when they were done with dinner.The old chauffeur checked in with Mason before agreeing to it. Running her fingers across Yanni’s face, she said, “Let’s go have some dinner!”Then, she shouldered her school bag and kept holding onto the little girl’s hands, reluctant to let go.Mom’s back! Yanni thought to herself.Zoe picked a high-end restaurant for dinner. It was The One Gourmet, a global chain of French restaurants. The moment she stepped into it, the waiter was stunned. She stammered, “Ms. Zoe!

    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

    Zion could sense Gwen’s cautiousness and chuckled softly. Then, he cupped her face and planted a firm kiss on her lips. “Don’t worry, I won’t touch you. We agreed to save that for our wedding night. Besides, I just drank last night, so I probably wouldn’t be much use. I want your first time to be special, so I’ll make sure I’m well-prepared.” Gwen’s cheeks turned crimson. She buried her face in his chest, mumbling, “I don’t understand what you’re talking about.” How peculiar! Back then, even though they were together, their relationship had always been proper and restrained. But now, here they were, sharing a bed, their bodies so intimately close it was both thrilling and embarrassing. Gwen had never experienced this before. Zion seemed to understand her thoughts. He leaned in close to her ear and whispered, “I haven’t either. Before the wedding night, I’ll make sure to study hard.” Gwen didn’t dare ask how he planned to “study,” though she had a pretty good idea—i

    Zion maintained a respectful demeanor and immediately greeted, “Mr. Noah.” Noah, however, didn’t make things difficult for him. He gave a light cough, which could be considered acknowledgment. Then, turning to his youngest daughter, he said, “Go upstairs first. Your mother’s been waiting for you all night; she probably has something to say to you.” Gwen hesitated and didn’t move at first. Zion gently nudged her, his voice soft, “You should go.” Only then did Gwen start to move. But before heading upstairs, she walked over to Noah. As the youngest daughter and the most adept at charming her way out of trouble, she hugged her father. Only then, with visible reluctance, did she head upstairs. Her father’s anger dissipated by more than half after the hug. Watching her go, Noah turned his attention to Zion, his tone calm but firm: “Have a seat. Let’s talk.” Zion immediately sat down and, with practiced ease, poured Noah a cup of tea. Noah feigned irritation and remarked, “

    But Gwen was not satisfied.With reddened eyes, she pitifully asked again, "Are you married? Is there someone else by your side? Do you still love me?"As she asked, she was more persistent than before, yet it made the man's heart ache even more.Zion remembered that when they parted ways, Gwen was still an innocent, naive girl. Now, however, she was willing to ask such direct and revealing questions. The braver she became, the more pain he felt in his heart.Zion no longer teased her. He looked into her eyes and answered seriously."No, I'm not married. There's no one else by my side. Her leg healed, and she got married earlier this year. And yes, I still love you. Very much."...Gwen's eyes turned even redder.Her voice trembled as she said, "That doesn't mean I have to be with you. I'm still mad at you."Zion took a step forward and gently wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes. It had been five years, and now she had become a teary little kitten. He remembered how

    At that moment, Gwen was completely flustered. She didn’t understand what Zion meant, nor did she understand why he was deliberately getting close to her. She wanted to ask, but before she could, Zion had already led her out of the car. The restaurant arranged by the school leadership was nearby, just off campus. Gwen had been there with Zion before, but not in a private room. Returning to an old haunt brought a sense of nostalgia. Zion walked side by side with Gwen. He was six-foot tall, and she was about five-foot-five. They made for a strikingly good-looking pair. Considering their history, the school leaders naturally couldn’t resist teasing them a bit. Gwen felt slightly uncomfortable and replied, "We were young and foolish." Over the years, Zion had grown seasoned in the business world, exuding an effortless charm. He responded with a light smile, "I wonder if we can pick up where we left off—still holding a grudge?" As soon as those words were said, the schoo

    After running away in a flurry that night, Gwen retreated into her home, avoiding the world outside for several days. Her father, Noah, meanwhile, busied himself with his new hobby of keeping turtles—purchased on a whim after his wife, Gwynn, teased him for being too old. In an attempt to prove his youth, Noah even released the turtles back into the wild one evening, making a point of marking one with the name "Zion" on its shell in a bold act of petty revenge. Gwynn, ever the pragmatist, found the gesture immature and pointless, but it brought him a fleeting sense of satisfaction. Gwen, however, was unaware of the antics her father had indulged in. All she knew was that her father had been unusually concerned during her self-imposed seclusion, urging her to get out and take a break. Noah's insistence that she shouldn’t remain cooped up at home was an attempt to draw her back into the world, to reconnect with life. But she couldn’t shake the weight of everything that had transp

    In the lounge, Gwen curled up in Tegan’s embrace, crying silently. Tegan gently stroked her smooth black hair, sighing softly. “If you really like him, I’ll help you talk to him.”Gwen sobbed quietly, “Dad will say you’re being rebellious.”Tegan paused for a moment, then replied, “Your brother will help me, won’t he?”Gwen clung to Tegan, continuing to cry softly. She remembered that today was Yeager’s full moon celebration and decided to cry for just a little while. After all, who hasn’t shed tears in their youth?At that moment, there was a knock at the door. From the sound of it, the person outside had a very refined aura. Tegan immediately guessed who it was; it certainly wasn’t her husband. She gently rubbed Gwen’s head. “I’ll go answer it.”When Tegan opened the door, as expected, it was Zion standing outside. The two locked eyes, and after a moment of silence, Tegan calmly spoke, “You two talk.” Zion nodded.In the quiet lounge, the soft sound of Gwen’s crying fill

    The following August. It was the party for Ocelotte and Molly's child. Molly had given birth to a boy, named Yeager Sanders, a name chosen by her eldest brother-in-law, Lorian. She was very fond of the name. As for Lorian and Tegan's youngest son, he was named Fergus Sanders. Yeager and Fergus were the next generation of boys in the Sanders family. However, the first child was still Lola, the one and only little princess. She loved following Gwen around. The little girl was now three and a half years old and about to start kindergarten. On the day of Yeager's party, Gwen was still taking Lola around, but she unexpectedly ran into an old acquaintance. It had truly been a long time. Since the year Zion had left for another country, although they had occasionally bumped into each other, they hadn’t had the chance for a proper meeting. How many years had passed? Gwen didn't dare to think about it, nor did she want to calculate. She vaguely felt it had been four
