"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
Winter sneered, "Talk about a petty person getting her way. She even smells like a bitch.""You shouldn't have stopped me earlier." She had only used a fraction of her strength—if things had really escalated, that old witch wouldn't have stood a chance.Recalling Ingrid's sour expression as she left
After dropping Ingrid off at her campus gate, Evelyn reminded her a few more times to stay safe and take care of her pregnancy. Only then did she instruct the driver, "Let's go back.""Yes, ma'am," the driver replied.Sitting in the back seat, Evelyn glanced at the hideous scarf beside her and could
In Evelyn's mind, her son was the best.No matter what, her daughter-in-law's education couldn't be lower than a Master's degree, preferably with a background from an overseas prestigious university. Ingrid fell far short in every aspect. Evelyn only reluctantly agreed to meet her because of the ba
Miranda's expression turned cold. "My interview video was seen by everyone online. If you still have doubts about my score, feel free to report it to the school. Don't just make baseless accusations."This society makes spreading rumors too easy. Take, for example, the person who posted that photo o
Tina was overjoyed. "Really? Will that be possible?!""Of course," said Sophie"I'd love to! I've admired you for a long time, and becoming your graduate student has always been my dream."It seemed Tina had completely forgotten that she had just come from Christine's house."Then it's settled. Your
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
