"Dear, I did all of this because I love you. I just want to be with you. Please forgive me this time. I swear it won't happen again," Ingrid said.Hansel's expression remained cold as he watched her desperate attempt to make amends. His eyes were filled with frost. "Do you not realize your action is
Ingrid trembled. Hansel's attitude made it feel like a bucket of cold water was poured over her head. She never expected him to be so heartless, to not even give her a chance to make amends.She couldn't accept this!"I know I was wrong, dear, but the child is innocent! Look, this is the ultrasound
It all felt meaningless now. Hansel's late-coming affection was worth nothing to Miranda.She listened to him with a blank expression while her hand still gripped the door knob tightly—a defensive stance.Then, she said in a slow and concise manner, "I'm sorry, but no."There would be no forgiveness
"Take these home and go through them. You'll officially start school again in September. Before then, you should have a basic understanding of your research direction. This way, when you join the lab group, you won't be completely in the dark," said Christine.Miranda glanced at the materials in her
Miranda suddenly realized that Elder Street was near Winter's office. Her heart jumped into her throat, nearly choking her with anxiety.Meanwhile, the driver kept his word; what would normally be a half-hour trip, he managed to cut it down to 15 minutes.As soon as Miranda got out of the car and wa
"Alright, alright. You're amazing! Happy now?" Miranda conceded."Well, according to hospital rules and procedures, car accident victims need to contact their family members."I didn't want to worry my parents, so I had to give them your number." Winter sighed, pulling out her phone and complaining
Hence, Evelyn could only glare, staring daggers at Winter. If looks could kill, Winter would've been stabbed to pieces by now."Ms. Jefferson, you might... have misunderstood me," Ingrid said timidly while glancing pitifully at Winter.Unfortunately, Winter wasn't buying it. "Misunderstand what? Tha
The more Evelyn thought about it, the angrier she became. The angrier she got, the more unwilling she was to let it go. She then actually chased after them.Normally, she would never stoop to this level, thinking that only desperate people would cling on like this. But right now, she was no differen
Miranda was momentarily taken aback, then she laughed. "Of course, I brought some for him too! Here, will you take it to him for me?""Sure thing!"Miranda took out a few extra jars and placed them in her car. "You're the best, Miranda!" "I think you and Sebastian are a pretty good match too."Wit
Since staying at the villa, her eyesight improved, and her back had stopped hurting. She was always smiling with a great appetite. Aren even went so far as to call over their private doctor, driver, and bodyguards from home. From the look of things, they planned to stay at the villa for some time.
By force? Sam chuckled. "Well, that's if you actually managed to grab hold of it."Timothy retorted, "How would you know you can't if you haven't tried?""What? Are you going to pursue Aunt Minnie? Heh… First of all, there's no way you'll get past my grandparents."Timothy made no comment on that.
"No way… Are you a big shot? You even brought your bodyguards to get drunk at a bar?" "Who knows?" Sam retorted.…Sam asked his bodyguards to stand closer deliberately so that he could finally have some peace and quiet. He poured himself another drink, but unlike last night, he didn't chug it down
Now, Timothy and Mindy were no longer the childhood sweethearts they once were. Their lives had diverged, with separate marriages and entirely different paths."Do you remember when we were kids, the promises we made about what we wanted to be when we grew up?" Timothy was the first to break the sil
Timothy waved his hand dismissively. "No need, I'll serve myself…""Nonsense! We're all family here." Before Timothy could finish, Lionel had already added two heaping servings of ribs to his plate.Timothy froze, momentarily at a loss for words.Nelly smiled sweetly, but her gaze toward Timothy was
The moment seemed to pull Timothy back in time, to when they were just young adults in their 20s. Their world revolved solely around each other, yet held back by the unspoken.His heart stirred. He opened his mouth to speak, but before he could say anything, Mindy stood up and broke the spell. "I sh
Nelly's smile became slightly strained. "Is that so? Lionel is truly a family man…"As everyone enjoyed their meal, the doorbell suddenly rang. Sam put down his cutlery. "I'll get it," he said, heading to the entryway.A few seconds later, his surprised voice echoed through the house. "Dad? What are
Mindy only asked Miranda to contact Sam because the two of them already knew each other.Back when Lionel's wallet was stolen at the train station, Miranda had introduced Sam to them. She called him "Mr. Cooper" and explained that he was a friend. Later, Sam had even thoughtfully dropped them off at
