Imprisoned Wife of Mr. Baxter Chapter 184 New Neighbors
Last time, all she did was use a disposable phone to send Alice a message, telling her that there was a woman named Violet who had caught Carson's attention. She would not have come looking for Violet herself if she had another way.Naturally, Lisa did not intend on actually helping Violet in becoming Miss Baxter. She simply wanted to use Violet and turn her against Alice to strike a balance between the two.Lisa smiled at her thoughts and said, "My sister had wronged Carson in the past, so there's no way I can do it. That's why I've come to you. I am no threat to you, and for everything I give, I only ask for one promise in return.""What kind of promise?" Everly asked."That once you succeed, you would teach Alice a lesson for me!" Lisa gritted out.Everly studied Lisa with amusement. If she had no prior knowledge of Carson and Lisa, including Lisa's personality, she would probably believe that everything in the present was caused by a grudge between Lisa and Alice. That would i

"Why are you here?" Annie parked the car and went over immediately. She stood in front of Everly to block any possible attempt from Carson of hurting Everly.On the other end, Robbie parked the car and ran over as well. He explained with a smile, "Miss Pettis, Annie, we haven't had the chance to tell you. Mister Baxter will be living in Rose Pavilion, the house next to Orchid Garden, from now on. We are going to be neighbors!"Carson nodded and lowered his gaze to look at Everly, who had not moved yet. Just as he tried to say something, Everly turned around and left, giving him the cold shoulder."Hmph! So what if you live next door! Everly doesn't even want anything to do with you!" Annie glared at the two and turned to leave with Everly.Carson stood still and watched as Everly hurried back to Orchid Garden, as his lips curled into a subtle smile."Mister Baxter, Miss Pettis doesn't seem all that enthusiastic about this. What should we do from now on?" Robbie stole a peep at Car

However, she intended on letting Annie do whatever she wanted.The sky was beginning to turn dark, and Annie went home, leaving Everly alone in the entire mansion. Just as she contemplated as to whether she should order delivery…Ring… Ring…The doorbell rang. Everly walked over and spotted Carson on the security camera.“Hmph!” Everly immediately turned the screen off and decided not to open the door.Rinnggg…The doorbell rang once again and did not stop this time. At first, Everly could still withstand it, thinking that he would leave if she continued to ignore him. She had not imagined that he would keep pressing the doorbell. She ran out of patience and connected the intercom.“Carson Baxter! What on earth are you trying to do?” she roared furiously.Unexpectedly, Oliver’s endearing face appeared on the screen in the next instant.Oliver batted his doll-like eyes and leaned towards the screen while being held up by two big hands.“Aunt Violet, I am Oliver. My dad and I j

"Aunt Violet, open it and see if you like it!" Oliver had not noticed the awkwardness and urged Everly to open the box.Everly sneered at Carson, who was standing by the side, before changing her expression drastically to smile as she rubbed Oliver's head and said, "Alright, let Auntie take a look!"Everly carefully opened the box and found an adorable bunny accessory inside."Dad and I picked this. This is just like the deer accessory you gave me before. Aunt Violet, you can hang it on your phone," Oliver explained and took out his own phone to show Everly the deer accessory she gave him. With an incredibly cheerful expression, he looked at Everly, doe-eyed, and asked, "Do you like it?"Everly acted swiftly and hooked the bunny accessory to her phone before dangling it and said, "What an adorable gift, Oliver. Auntie likes it a lot!"Everly touched Oliver's chubby cheeks. In truth, she wanted to tell him, "Mommy likes it". However, she had yet to obtain Oliver's custody, and she

Alice was not happy with it. She had already been furious, to begin with, the fact that Robbie had stopped her from seeing Carson added to her grudge and she blurted out, "So what if I am targeting her?"Robbie simply returned a polite smile. "Miss Davidson, there are boundaries to everything. We are all witnesses to what has been happening between you and Violet. I would advise that you step back while you still can.""And I'm supposed to step back simply because you ask me to?" Alice became more agitated at the thought that Robbie was siding with Violet and said, "Robbie, I am the marketing representation that Carson hired, and I'm in charge of all tasks in the matter. Right now, I don't think that Violet's work could pass, and it's only reasonable that I call her and ask that she comes back!""Miss Davidson, don't be so certain with your words. You and I both know the truth behind how you got into Baxter Group, so there's no point for you to try and pressure me with that." The sm

Everly was boiling the pasta.She had not had her dinner, and her stomach began to rumble after playing around with Oliver. Oliver heard her, and after a brief moment of awkwardness, Oliver told her that he had not had his dinner as well and would like to try her cooking, which led to the current situation.Carson had been assigned to handle the ingredients. Everly cast him aside on purpose while she remained on the other side with Oliver.'If he insists on staying here, then he's just going to have to work!' she thought."Oliver, who cooks at your house?" she asked."Aunt Emma. She cooks well!"As the two chatted to one another, Carson looked at the potato in his hand. His brows relaxed as he held the peeler tightly and began peeling the skin of the potato.The feeling that they were a family of three cooking together in the kitchen felt great. Though he had not been inside a kitchen before, he was willing to change for her sake.Everly observed Carson as he processed the ingr

"Yes, yes!" Everly immediately tapped Oliver on the shoulder and changed the subject. "Here, let's do something else. Auntie is going to surprise you today!""Are you a better cook than Aunt Emma?" Oliver was instantly distracted by Everly and leaned over cheerfully."Aunt Emma is good at what she does, but I also hope that you like my cooking!" Everly petted him on the head and walked towards the stove. Oliver found himself a small chair and stood on it from a distance to observe Everly.The kitchen was soon filled with a wondrous smell. While both Everly and Oliver did not notice, Carson had finished washing the vegetables and was looking at them with a faint smile.…Time flew by in the Orchid Garden.All three were satisfied with dinner, with Oliver going on and on about how delicious it was and that he wanted to come over again in the future. Everly was delighted as any chance that she had to interact with Oliver was more than what she could ever ask for. As for Carson, she

Carson had not to back down even though he was not much of a talker."Stop making false accusations!" John retorted immediately and tried to run in. Carson remained standing at the door and refused to move. Instantly, the entrance to the Orchid Garden became extremely noisy, to the point that both Everly and Oliver noticed from the living room."What are you two doing?"Before the two could notice, Everly had come over to the door holding Oliver's hand. She stared at the two furious men and felt helpless. John was absolutely livid, looking as though he was prepared to penetrate any barrier before him to get inside the house at any moment. Meanwhile, despite the composure Carson displayed on the outside, he oozed a terrifying aura that could bring chills to one's bones."Dad," Oliver called out in fear.Carson retrieved his gaze from staring at John and reached out his arm to grab Oliver's hand."Ever- Violet, are you okay? Did he do anything to you?" John instantly changed his wa

Everly wondered, 'Why does he look so pitiful? Is he going to ask me to be with me as he did before?'Meanwhile, Carson moved his eyes from her to the sunset on the horizon and said, "It's late."She looked across at the sea and the sky. The glorious declining sun gilded the sky.The salty sea wind swept over them.They gazed at the sunset until the fish suddenly struggled and startled Everly.It had been quietly staying in her hand for a while. She had forgotten that she was holding the fish. Thus, she subconsciously let go of the fish and shook Carson's hands off.The fish flopped back into the water and waved its tail to flee away."Oh, no. The fish has escaped. Dad, hurry up and catch it!" Oliver yelled. He had been squatting on the side so as not to disturb his parents. Carson and Oliver then chased after the fish.Everly slowly got up and stood there. The father and the son in white T-shirts were surrounding the big puddle. Everly felt strange while watching them.She wa

She was a little embarrassed. After all, they hadn't been so close to each other for a long time. She felt a bit uncomfortable.So, she found a random topic. "Oliver still hasn't come back?""Maybe he couldn't find the bucket," he said, his chest vibrating. Not knowing how to pick up the conversation, she just looked at him. "Put the fish down," he said again after about three seconds. "But it will slip away," she blurted out. He paused, nodded, and hummed.Actually, she could place it somewhere dry rather than in the water... Then it couldn't slip away...She found herself so stupid. But she couldn't take back her words...She wondered, bit the bullet, and awkwardly held the fish. Should she say anything to defuse the awkward situation?She thought for a moment and asked, "What's your plan? I mean your career.""I haven't laid it out yet," he replied frankly. "I've been working for too long, and it's time to take a break. In the past, I didn't have time to hang

Everly immediately put the crab into the small bucket.At this time, the bucket was filled with many crabs. Oliver looked inside and wore a bright smile."Wow! We got a lot of crabs today! My bucket is almost full!" Oliver said and looked back. When he saw the bucket in his dad's hand, Oliver took it and dumped all the crabs inside his own bucket into it. He then pushed it to Everly and said, "Wow. Aunt Violet caught so many crabs today. You are awesome!"Everly froze. She looked at Oliver's smiling face and understood what he meant.Oliver wanted her to take all the credit for catching those crabs."Oliver...""Aunt Violet! Look over there. There are bubbles coming out of that small hole. Let's go over there. There must be something in there!" As he said, Oliver carried his bucket and a small shovel and trotted over in his slippers. He ran to the hole and exclaimed, "Aunt Violet, come on! It is a big fish!""Go ahead. He likes playing with you," Carson said to Everly when she w
Imprisoned Wife of Mr. Baxter Chapter 465 The Tenderness in Carson's Eyes
"How do you know if they have contact in private?" The man asked as their car was waiting for a green light. The man's consecutive retorts annoyed Lisa. She looked in the rearview mirror at the man with chill eyes. "What do you mean? Are you trying to deliberately piss me off?" "No." The man replied. Then he paused for a few seconds and changed the subject. "So what are you going to do next?" 'Let Everly crash down to the hell!' During these days all their tactics were covert. They only took some subtle moves to test Carson, to see what was in Carson's mind. Now that Lisa had learned about it, then the next step she was up to was to put Everly through hell! "What's going on with Violet's studio now?" Lisa asked. "According to the information we got, it won't be long before Violet Studio and Baxter Group's collaboration on 'The Angel' is finished." The man replied. Before Lisa was about to respond, suddenly, her phone vibrated. Buzz--Lisa picked up her phone to check t
Imprisoned Wife of Mr. Baxter Chapter 464 But He Loves Everly
Everly, Carson, and Oliver were playing on the beach. Meanwhile, Lisa came out of her villa to a car and talked to someone on the phone.She got into the passenger seat, smiled at the man in the driver's seat, and said, "I've just heard that the opposition faction of the Baxter Group changed their minds. They want to get Carson back."The man started the car without speaking. Lisa made up her face, smiled contentedly while looking into the mirror at her delicate figures, and continued, "I knew that the Baxter Group couldn't do well without Carson and that they would give in!"The car's tires squealed.The man suddenly braked."What are you doing?" Lisa growled at the man with a frown, hurriedly grabbing something to steady herself."Lisa, what the hell do you want?" the man said resignedly, "didn't you say that you just wanted to help your family out of trouble? I don't understand what you're thinking. Do you love Carson? Are you proud of him?""What's the problem with this?"
Imprisoned Wife of Mr. Baxter Chapter 463 She Seemed a Little Addicted to Such a Life
While waving at her, Oliver murmured and walked in with Carson.Everly nodded with a smile. With the clothes in her hand, she got into the car and changed her clothes.The clothes were very simple, which were just a big white T-shirt and a pair of casual shorts. Looking at the clothes, she couldn't help wondering what Carson and Oliver would wear.She walked out, with her mind wandering. She saw Carson and Oliver not far away, both of whom were wearing a white vest and a pair of shorts to their knees. The color and style of their clothes were the same, except for the size.They two seemed to be talking about something, with buckets in their hands. Carson held a big bucket while Oliver held a small one. There was another bucket on the ground, obviously prepared for Everly.Noticing her coming, Oliver turned around and looked at her. "Aunt Violet!"Carson also looked up at her.Her heart was thumping faster inexplicably.‘He seems to be closer to me these days.’Maybe it was bec

The shopkeeper felt embarrassed. He looked at Oliver and replied, "What? I couldn’t do that. Don’t talk nonsense."Oliver pouted and didn’t say anything. Carson patted his head and then looked at the shopkeeper.The shopkeeper already understood his meaning. So then he handed three sets of clothes to Everly and Carson, "You can rinse over there.""Thank you." Everly nodded, then they went there together.After lifting the curtain of the outdoor shower, Carson and Oliver both frowned slightly and looked at her at the same time.Everly was a little confused, so she asked, "What’s wrong?""You can change the clothes in the car." Carson opened his mouth.Oliver nodded and explained, "Right, Aunt Violet. This place has some leaks. It’s okay for me and dad, but it's not okay for you, and there’s no mud on you. It's just me falling into the mud puddle."Everly looked at him and then at Oliver, understanding what they meant.She nodded and pinched Oliver's face with a smile, "Okay,
Imprisoned Wife of Mr. Baxter Chapter 461 A Human Shape was Still There
She immediately quickened her pace to rush over and snatched Oliver from Carson's hand."Hmm..."Before Oliver jumped into her arms and complained to her, Carson's cold voice sounded, "Stop. You're covered in mud."Oliver stopped immediately, looking down at himself, then he glared at Carson. Just a few seconds later, he sat down on a small rock and pointed to the big mud puddle beside him. "Aunt Violet, I just fell into it."Everly glanced in the direction that Oliver pointed to. There was indeed a mud puddle and a human shape was still there. Oliver's father just wiped his face. Otherwise, he could not be recognized.Looking at him sitting on that small rock and his aggrieved look, Everly thought he was so cute and couldn’t help laughing out loud, "Puff..."Hearing her laugh, Oliver turned his head. Everly immediately tried to hold back her laughter, but she failed."Ah! Aunt Violet, you laughed!” Oliver directly came down from the rock, sat in the mud, and childishly showed

Yet the meeting room was quiet. No one spoke.If there had been a way to settle the matter, they would have dealt with it many days ago.And if they gave advice but failed in the end, they might have to take the blame."Why do you all keep silent? Didn't you have a lot of ideas at the very beginning?" the leader roared, slapping the table.However, no one answered.After a minute, someone trembled and said, "Then ... shall we find Carson and make him the president again?""What are you talking about?" The leader was even angrier.But another person said, "I think he's right. The share price is falling. We have less and less money. If it goes on like this, none of us can stand it. We'd better get Carson back... When he managed the company, the share price was rising.""You're looking down on yourself and flattering Carson!" the leader growled, "and the share price is falling. Their losses must be bigger than ours. They should be the most anxious!""But..." the person who had be
