Erin's mind went black for a moment after Cyrus called her out. She could only feel her heart pounding like crazy.She clutched the red lipstick in her right palm, ready to attack him at any time.She had no confidence and no idea about Cyrus' combat skills. However, if Iron Hawk rushed in, she wouldn't be captured without a fight.The air was filled with the rosy scent from Cyrus and the cologne Erin deliberately wore.The two scents mingled, creating a nervous, thrilling, and dangerous atmosphere. After she fell silent for a long time, she finally regained her senses.She leaned back against the couch and chuckled. "Mr. Cyrus, I don't know what you're talking about.""Is that so?" Cyrus' gaze darkened as he stared at her.He admired Erin's calm and collected composure.She knew her husband was in the palm of his hand. Yet, she remained composed as she sat on the couch. It was evident that Chandler's woman was quite remarkable. Cyrus glanced at his pale and sickly hand. T
The strong desire in Cyrus' eyes sent a shiver down Erin's spine. She subconsciously protected her belly.Cyrus knew that she had misunderstood. He immediately explained, "Don't worry. I'm not going to hurt you. Also, Professor Ralson is a righteous man."If a new medication can only be developed by harming a human life, he wouldn't have agreed to it either," Cyrus added. "Maybe you can't help my allergy as well. I just wanted to invite you to meet the professor with me. That's all," he reassured her.Erin fixed him with an intense gaze and asked in a deep voice, "Are you willing to release Chandler and the others if I agree to go with you?"Cyrus was not surprised. He had expected Erin to make such a request.He nodded and said, "Yes. If you're willing to meet the professor with me, I'll let them go.""As you know, Noah is my friend now. I won't care about the grudges between you guys. But if I let you go, he surely would be mad at me," Cyrus added. "So, I'll have to think o
Ten minutes later, Arman was sitting in his brightly lit bedroom. With his legs crossed, he listened as his trusted assistant reported back to him."Does Clifford do whatever you tell him now?" Arman had a cigar between his lips and a glass of red wine in his hand as he sat on the couch. He was in silk pajamas as he had just taken a shower.A young man with tattoos on his arm was standing in front of him. The man had a handsome face and a few light scars on his tanned skin.He replied to Arman, "Not really. His father still often teaches him not to be gullible, so he doesn't fully trust the people around him.""He has yet to change his last name, hasn't he? That makes him still a bastard without proper status." Arman sneered.The man answered, "Barney and Clifford's mother, Evelyn, is going to get married next month. They will officially change Clifford and Elina's last name to Wood then. Barney will also be officially making Clifford the president of his company."Arman's expres
After saying that, Iron Hawk left, letting them have the space to themselves.After Iron Hawk turned a corner, Erin quickly walked inside. In less than ten seconds, she saw Chandler, Ryder, and Logan.They were locked up in a huge jail, and there were three black sacks on the floor. It seemed that their heads had been covered when they were brought in."Erin!" Chandler was too stunned to speak. He quickly rushed to the bars with shock and gratitude written all over his face. Tears immediately welled up in his eyes."Hubby!" Erin shouted as she ran to him."Be careful! You're pregnant."Everybody looked at Erin as soon as they heard Chandler. Logan was the only one who was not surprised by that. Still, he was over the moon to see Erin and the others.Chandler interlocked his fingers with Erin's, then chuckled with tears in his eyes. "Your disguise is a total failure. I could tell it's you at a glance."Saffi felt slightly embarrassed. She asked Killian, "Is it really a failure?"
Ten minutes flew by, and Iron Hawk returned to the dungeon swiftly. As soon as he entered, he said, "Time's up. It's time to go."Erin smiled and said, "Please, Iron Hawk, let us stay a little longer. If you're in a hurry, feel free to leave."Iron Hawk frowned, unhappy with her answer. He wanted to say something, but he suddenly asked, "Where's Mr. Cox? Also, why did Mr. Newman leave earlier?""Oh, Gunnar drank too much tonight and felt like throwing up earlier. I was afraid it would stink up the place, so I asked him to do it outside," Saffi said casually while leaning against the bars.Coincidentally, Killian returned at that moment. He already heard Iron Hawk's voice.As soon as he got near them, he smiled and said, "Mr. Arman's beasts, especially the blank panther, are really something else. Oh, you're here too, Mr. Iron Hawk."Iron Hawk had lost his patience with them. He said with a slight anger, "Erin, stop being unreasonable! If not, I will have to report this to Mr. Cyr
"It's fine! I'm not that weak! Hurry up and let's go!" Erin said with a firm gaze.Chandler looked guilty and held her hands tighter. Erin was pregnant, yet she had to risk her life and come to Gold Island. He truly had failed as a husband. He had to reflect on himself after they got home.Everybody successfully got to the bay under the cliff in less than 20 minutes. They also got into the canoes.There were eight canoes, and each could fit eight people. That was more than enough space for them.Right as they were about to leave, Erin saw the pink dolphin swimming by the bay. It was crying like a baby, which made Erin incredibly sad.She said nothing, but Chandler could tell what was on her mind. He immediately asked for a weapon from Calix, who was sitting in front of him.Calix was confused, but he still handed his weapon to Chandler.With the help of the moonlight reflected on the bay, Chandler aimed the weapon at a spot in the water.Erin was shocked. She asked, "Chandler
"Are you going to dig up a grave again?" said Chandler. His eyes were filled with disdain."Hahaha. You know me best."After Calix finally left, Chandler said casually, "Hurry up and eat. The food's cold again.While holding a spoon, Erin said, "Dani, let's eat together. I can't have so much."Dani glanced at the fish. He was actually starving. Still, he hesitated and asked, "Do you really have enough to eat?""Yes, I do. Hurry up and dig in," replied Erin.Dani immediately grabbed his fork and ate the fish. He looked very focused as he ate his food on his chair.Erin smiled and glanced at Chandler, "Have some too, Hubby."Erin was still dressed as a man. When Chandler looked at her, some forbidden images immediately popped into his head.He suddenly found it a little hard to swallow. Then, he said, "I'll have a bit of the vegetables then."The family then had a peaceful meal under the soft lights. Their eyes were filled with love and joy when they looked at each other. The
As soon as Chandler said Gunnar would win, Calix' cheerleaders immediately fell silent. All of them turned to look at Chandler.Erin asked Chandler softly, "Hubby, why did you say that? Didn't they say Calix could finish a bottle of red wine and vodka? None of us knows how well Gunnar can hold his liquor.""Chandler! How could you undermine me like that? You've seen how much I can drink!" Calix said angrily.Chandler shot a cold glance at him. "I've seen it, but that's in the past."Gunnar looked at Chandler with slight confusion. He was surprised as he said, "I can't believe what I heard. You actually believe I'll win?""Unless you wish to lose to Calix deliberately," said Chandler.Calix was infuriated. "That's enough already, Chandler! How dare you look down on me! What if I beat Gunnar?"Chandler looked down while holding his cup of tea. The frosty air he had around him overwhelmed everybody in the kitchen. The faint smile on his lips was incredibly bewitching.He looked up
Erin chuckled lightly as she said, "Enny would have married and fallen in love with another man sooner or later. "If that man is Paulo, I would be more than willing. Enny will be very happy in her life, and I'm at ease entrusting her to Paulo. And with Paulo being so wealthy, I don't have to worry about anyone coveting Enny's status or her family's power.""You make a good point!" Jill agreed."Jill, if your wedding with Ryder happens around the same time as Enny's, I'm afraid I won't have the energy to help you," Erin said worriedly."No worries, I don't want a wedding ceremony. Ryder and I just need to register our marriage. We've been living together for ten years anyway," Jill said.Erin nodded. "Yeah, that's fine. Weddings are quite tiring anyway, whether you have one or not."After chatting for a while, Jill heard Ryder's footsteps and said quickly, "Let's talk next time. He's coming in." …At 10:00 pm that day, Erin visited Chandler's office at his company.However, h
Ryder turned around with skepticism etched across his face. "What could possibly be wrong? Look at how anxious you are."As she leaned against the doorway, Jill held her phone aloft. There was a challenging glint in her eyes. "If you can remain that calm after hearing this news, I'll play your game with you later.""Really?" Ryder raised an eyebrow, his tone filled with."Forget it if you don't trust me." She pretended to turn away.In a swift motion, Ryder closed the distance between them."I believe you. Now, tell me," Ryder said."Enny and Paulo have settled things," Jill announced with a smirk playing on her lips."Damn! Who told you?" Ryder's curiosity peaked.Jill waved her phone triumphantly. "This is exclusive insider information! Erin personally sent a WhatsApp message, see for yourself!"Ryder snatched the phone, his eyes scanning the message rapidly.The message read, "Enny was two months pregnant with Paulo's child, and the couple had visited Paulo's parents. Whil
Cyril looked at Paulo's departing figure and sighed. "Master is so good-looking. That's why Ms. Frost has been chasing him for so many years… Actually, Master and Ms. Frost really are a perfect match!"Only after Paulo's figure disappeared into the forest did Cyril turn around silently.He was suddenly startled. "Ms. Frost…""Why so guilty? I'm not some demoness who preys on monks!" Enny exclaimed.Cyril laughed. "Ms. Frost, you're really humorous…""I'm asking you, where is your master?" Enny demanded.Cyril hesitated and said, "I don't know where Master is."Enny called his bluff. "Liar!""I really don't know," insisted Cyril."Cyril, your master is going through the most difficult time of his life. As his capable assistant and disciple, you must help him!" insisted Enny.Enny's serious expression made Cyril ask curiously, "What trouble has Master encountered?""Well, he wants to be with me, but he's too embarrassed to ask. What should I do?" she asked."Does Master reall
Many years later, on the day Enny got her ID card, she drove to Skycloud Mountain overnight.There was a temple on the top of Skycloud Mountain, and she was going to see someone there.By the time she struggled to the mountaintop, it was already 6:00 am the next day.Enny was dressed in black. She wore white hiking shoes with a duck tongue hat and her hair casually tied in a ponytail.Her beautiful, bare face had been a stumbling block on her path to growth.Every year, the number of men she rejected could fill several trucks.That was just among those who had the chance to approach her, while those who didn't could only watch from afar.Enny looked straight ahead, wiping the sweat that had trickled down her cheek.She took a deep breath and walked into the small, secluded temple that was cut off from the world.She finally arrived just in time on the day the new chief abbot took office. In fact, she was there to prevent the new abbot from entering the monastic life!Driven b
Erin had planned to visit Matthew's "Thinkerin City" to buy a violin and visit him.But Matthew's shop was closed, so after waiting for half an hour with Enny, she went to another store to buy one.However, she happened to meet him on the street now.Matthew slowly pushed the wheelchair toward her.He was dressed very casually. He wore a plaid shirt with short sleeves, jeans, and branded sneakers.His simple style was a far cry from his rock star days.He looked somewhat thinner, his smile faint. "Erin, did you and Enny come to buy an instrument?""Yes, we bought Enny a violin. We actually wanted to visit your store." Erin's gaze drifted to Claire, who sat in the wheelchair.Matthew responded, "Sorry, I had to take Claire to get some medicine."Although Claire had been tragically affected by Matthew's obsessive fans years ago, she survived. However, she was left mentally incapacitated and was sometimes lucid for only a few hours.Matthew was loyal, taking it upon himself to c
Chandler's appearance wasn't anything mysterious or an extraordinary entrance.It was filled with the usual beauty and romance of a typical wedding.After reaching Erin, he knelt on one knee with a face full of happiness, opened the ring box with both hands and looked up at her.He asked, "Erin, will you marry me again?"Erin's heart was filled with joy as she asked jokingly, "If I refuse, will you force me into a wedding dress and marry you?"He replied firmly, "Yes!""Since I have no choice, I suppose I must agree," she said with a smile. Erin extended her hand for Chandler to slide the engagement ring onto her finger."You will be Mrs. Frost for the rest of your life! Don't even think about escaping!" Chandler exclaimed."Ah, I won't run. I am willing to be a happy prisoner," Erin said self-deprecatingly.Ryder rolled his eyes, his expression full of sourness.Kylan caught his expression and patted his shoulder without saying a word.As Erin put on the ring, everyone pres
Five minutes later, the doorbell rang again as Enny started doing Erin's makeup."I'll get it, Mom. You stay seated, okay?" Enny said."Fine, Mommy won't move." Erin winked at her. Seconds later, Enny shouted, "Godfather!""Enny! You look so beautiful!" The joy in the man's voice was palpable.Erin stood up and walked to the living room, knowing Sean had arrived.By then, Sean and another man had already entered.They closed the door behind them."Erin, I've brought a makeup artist for you," Sean said with a slight smile.The man beside him bowed politely to her. "Hello, Ms. Lane!""Maya, your male disguise is a total failure. You just slapped on some rough makeup without even wearing a realistic mask. You don't look like a man at all," Erin teased with a laugh.Maya couldn't help but laugh. "Mr. Frost's security measures are too strict. If I had worn a stranger's male mask, I wouldn't have been allowed in, and I would have been detained.""Why go through all the trouble o
Meanwhile, Erin had just gone to open the door of her hotel room.To her surprise, the person at the door was Roman."Rom! It's really you!" Erin exclaimed with joy. Dressed in a tailored white suit, Roman held a bouquet and joked, "Do you need to check my face to make sure I'm not wearing a mask?""Haha! I know it's you! Come in and let's talk. Thank you for the flowers!" Erin took the bouquet he offered and invited him inside.A minute later, Roman was sitting on the couch.He looked out to the underwater world from the floor-to-ceiling windows and remarked, "Enny and Eddie must really love this room.""Yes, the kids could watch it all night. Chandler specifically chose this type of room for the children," Erin explained.As Erin placed the fresh flowers in a vase, Roman inquired, "Where's Chandler?"Erin replied, "You should know what he's busy with, right?"Roman's gaze turned indecipherable, his tone probing as he asked, "You already know?"Erin laughed. "Yes. Did it d
Jill naturally denied it when she heard the question. "We didn't expose anything! Erin just happened to see us. What could we do? Pretend we don't know her? That's not realistic at all!""Did you really say nothing?" Ryder asked doubtfully.Calix was also skeptical as he questioned, "Erin is so sharp, and both of your acting skills are so poor. She must have figured it out."Tina exclaimed defensively, "We really didn't say anything! You two are so annoying! I'm dying of thirst here! Jill, hurry up and open the door. We can talk inside.""Yeah, I'm thirsty too," Jill echoed. She took out her room card, swiped it, and opened the door.The two women were about to close the door when Ryder stopped it with his hand. He asked, "What are you doing, not letting us in?""What are you coming in for? Don't you have your own room? Go away, we're going to take a nap!" Jill said grumpily."Taking a nap at this hour? Are you two pigs? The rehearsal is about to start," Ryder pointed out."W
