About half an hour later, the bedroom door swung open again. Gwynn was clearly troubled when she came in.

Resting his head on both of his hands, he asked, “What’s the problem?”

She made her way to the side of the bed, sat down, and stared at him. She didn’t speak until after a brief moment. “Ayanna is pregnant with Anderson’s baby!”

He clicked his tongue and snorted. “I can’t believe they developed real feelings for each other!”

She asked, troubled, “You’re not going to do something to the baby, are you?”

He couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Pinching her cheeks, he said tenderly, “Why would I? It’s not my baby. There’s no reason I’m in a hurry to abort it! Moreover, Archibald also decided to spare them.”

Then, he mulled it over and said, “I’ll talk to Kim first thing in the morning. She’ll arrange for Ayanna to fly out of Zutriystein. I don’t want to keep a ticking time bomb by my side.”

She stared at him with unblinking eyes.

It was a poor time to talk about this, but

    Gwynn knew just who he was talking about. It was true that she had moved on from the past. However, it was never pleasant to think about it nonetheless. With that in mind, how was she supposed to be in the mood to be making love with him now?She pushed against his chest and stopped him from doing it. Leaning on his shoulder, she spoke in a husky, delicate voice. “I guess I’ll meet her downstairs!”He caressed her waist in response. In the end, however, he let her go gently.She straightened herself up a little and headed downstairs. Gladys walked with her and encouraged her. “You don’t have to be scared at all, Ms. Gwynn! She hasn’t had any power or sway for a long time. She might’ve come here, but she poses no threat to you anymore. Mr. Noah wasn’t even interested in meeting her!”Gwynn chuckled dryly. “It’s not like she’s asking to see Noah, though.”Gladys rubbed her head and responded, “I guess you’re right!”Gianna was holding a small briefcase in the first-floor livi

    “I want my mom to keep living!”…Anderson asked her with a blank face, “Did Noah pay you?”Ayanna’s lips trembled lightly. She might not have said anything, but the answer was plain as day. So, he dropped the matter altogether. There was no need for that, after all. Instead, he asked her another question. “We’ve been together for so long. Don’t you have any feelings for me?” “None whatsoever!” she responded quickly. “It’s all business! I never loved you at all! Love is reserved for only the rich and powerful. Common people like me don’t even have the right to choose who we love.“I’ve never had any feelings for you. Not even once. I’ve never wasted a second of my life loving you.” With that, she rose as he stared at her.Then, she headed toward the door decisively. She was still gripping the eighty million dollar check as well as the expensive jewelry. However, tears were glinting in her eyes… Alas, how was she supposed to not have any feelings for him?They had spent ma

    Kim leaned in close and asked, “What’s the matter, Mr. Noah?”He showed her the document. “Our country’s diplomat struck a deal with Neopolis. They’re going to hold an exhibition for Van Gogh’s ‘The Starry Night’ in Brookesville for a week. It’s a commercial exhibition, so they’re appointing us for the security.”Then, he lowered his head and lit his cigarette.Stunned, she said, “You just said that Ms. Gwynn won’t let you smoke in the villa, Mr. Noah.”His eyes were intense when he said, “This is different!”He added, “Coming back to this, I’m certain that Archibald got us this task. He’s going to tear my company a new one if the painting goes missing or is damaged in any way. In fact, he might even set up a special investigation team and plant them in the company, the same way he did last time.”Kim felt a little nervous now. “Are you thinking about rejecting them, Mr. Noah?”Gripping the document, he said, “How am I supposed to reject it when the government signed off on it?

    Holly kissed him in response. Then, they arrived at the art studio on the third floor. Noah pushed the door open a crack and showed her what was inside. The yellowish glow spilled out the door. It was the middle of the night, but Gwynn was still working on a painting. Instead of wearing a luxurious dress, she wore a cotton shirt and tied her hair, which was hanging over her shoulder now.She looked very beautiful when she was focused on work. Holly was the one who said she missed her mom, but he was the one who was engrossed in the sight. He stood outside the door and admired how serene and beautiful she was. It felt as if he was seeing her for the first time. His chest swelled with pride as he looked at her. The wind rushed in through the window and tousled his black hair. Worried that his little girl might catch a cold, he carried her downstairs.Then, he worked at his desk while Holly leaned on his knees, much like the way a cat would. She was such a good little girl.

    The fire wasn’t that bad, but something terrible happened. Van Gogh’s ‘original’ painting was blackened from the burn. What was worse, the entire painting had fallen to the floor. It was nothing but a pile of trash now. The art museum manager ran downstairs. The moment he saw the burnt-up canvas on the floor, he was shocked to the core. After a brief moment, he looked at Noah. “I can’t believe Van Gogh’s original painting was burnt to this extent. How are we going to explain ourselves? This is it. Our career is over!”Men don’t typically cry over small matters. However, the manager burst into tears and cried at the top of his lungs. This was a huge deal, after all. None of them would be able to keep it under wraps.Taking Noah’s hands, he discussed with him about their next move. He needed to know what they were going to say when the Neopolitans asked them about the painting. Noah responded swiftly, “I’ll take sole responsibility for this, Jedidiah! You don’t have to worry

    The painting Gwynn was holding looked exactly the same as Van Gogh’s ‘The Starry Night.’Where did she get a fake painting?She didn’t come alone, either. Kim was with her. There were also fifty handpicked security guards from the Sanders Group, each of them looking like they could take on a dozen guys by themselves. Archibald squinted in response. Gwynn walked over to him and spoke calmly. “This is Van Gogh’s original painting! The one that was burnt was a fake.”Her words shocked everyone!The old man sneered. “What makes you think I’ll believe you? Van Gogh’s original painting was hung up in the museum.”He gave a look to Saul, who knew what he meant and stepped forward. “We’re in the middle of a serious discussion, Ms. Gwynn! Things are getting hot. Perhaps you should go home and take a break there. It’s going to break Archibald’s heart to see you suffering from the heat.”She stopped Saul gently and said solemnly, “Of course, I know this is a serious discussion! I know w

    Gwynn wore a blank expression. “Sure, I do. You did this for Anderson.”Archibald gave himself some time before he reacted. “Anderson’s still in prison! Are you going to tell me that he doesn’t deserve a second chance, too?”She lowered her gaze and said quietly, “You’re the one who doesn’t deserve a second chance!“You shouldn’t have messed with Noah’s brake pads.“If the kids and I were in the car that day, then I probably wouldn’t be able to stand before you now. You would’ve killed me and masked it as an accident! The same goes for Lorian and Holly!“I’m aware Anderson is all you care about.“Well, Lorian and Holly are the only people I care about! I’ll do everything to avenge them if you put them in harm’s way. I don’t care if it means doing something to you or the Templetons’ reputation. In fact, I don’t care if Anderson survives it!”…It took Gwynn everything she’s got.After all, she was saying something this heartless to her biological father. It actually pained her

    Half an hour later, a black limousine pulled into the villa and parked at the front porch. Once the car stopped, Noah carried Gwynn out of the car.She had slept the entire drive. He carried her through the luxurious door and living room before climbing the stairs and heading toward the master bedroom. He didn’t even break a sweat when he set her down on the bed. Sitting by the side of the bed, he brushed her tousled hair aside.Then, he touched her perky cheeks. He simply couldn’t have enough of her. At the next moment, he heard some footsteps from the door. It didn’t take him long to know that it was Holly. The little girl saw her mom sleeping the moment she came in. So, she tiptoed toward her Dad, and whispered, “Is Mom tired?”“Yeah. She’s exhausted.” He patted his daughter’s head. Holly’s eyes were big and black, glinting brilliantly. Then, she tiptoed over, cupped her mom’s cheeks, and gave her a kiss. It looked like she, too, couldn’t have enough of her mom. He

However, despite his best efforts, they still crossed paths in the hallway.Gael stood quietly, watching Yanni. She had just taken Ella to the restroom, as she wasn’t comfortable leaving her alone. Besides Ella, there was another small girl with her, probably one of the twins she had with Keaton. The other twin was her brother.The twins were named Shay Bright and Drew Bright. Ella adored her younger siblings. Whenever she came home from school, she would always spend some time playing with them first. At night, she would sneak her little sister into her room and cuddle her to sleep, treating her like a little doll.At first, Yanni was quite worried, but she lat

    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. Even more delightful, she was marrying her childhood love. Dressed in a headpiece and red bridal gown, she was as beautiful as could be, the most stunning woman Zion had ever seen.The Quarto family was busy with preparations. Although they were not extremely wealthy, Jordyn was a capable family head with a good reputation. He handled both inside and outside affairs with finesse and charm. To everyone’s surprise, he got along very well with Mason.However, Noah had some reservations. “Don't you have any relatives of your own, Mason?”Mason didn’t engage with his criticism. Together with Zoe, they helped with the wedding arrangements. A traditional Chinese wedding was far more elaborate than a Western one, but thankfully, the families had enough help to avoid any chaotic moments.During the d

    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

    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
