Erin exclaimed, "Stop it! We didn't even lock the study!""No one dares to come in! What are you worried about?""No! Not in the study!""Can't you do me such a small favor?" A hint of disappointment could be heard from his voice. She felt guilty and asked, "Do you really want to do it here?"He leaned close to her and nibbled her ear, "I want you, Erin …"Her cheeks flushed red, and she whispered, "Let me go change first.""Really?""I'll wear the new one you bought two days ago."Chandler lowered his gaze. The thought of the black, sexy lingerie came into his mind. Just the thought of tearing it apart ignited a flame of desire within him.He smirked. "Go on! I'll wait here."Still blushing, Erin got up and left the study hurriedly. Just as she found that piece of lingerie, her phone vibrated on the table. It was Cherry. Erin answered the call immediately. "Erin! Your father has been attacked …"Ten minutes had passed. Chandler had taken off his clothes, leaving o
One hour later, the bodyguard came to report that Elliot had awakened in the wine cellar.Chandler and Erin were heading there, with Calix tagging along.As they walked past the guest room, Simon just happened to open the door after waking up."Where are you guys going?" he asked."We have just been informed that Elliot has woken up, and we're on our way to interrogate him," Erin replied.Simon immediately said, "I'll go with you."With this, the four of them went to the wine cellar.They arrived at the wine cellar ten minutes later.As soon as they entered, Elliot laughed. "Oh, so many people to interrogate me? Are you planning to carry out torture, too?""Cut the crap, Elliot! Speak up! Why did you kidnap Queenie?"Elliot looked Erin in the eyes and replied, "Queenie is Theodore's girlfriend.""Bullshit! Queenie is my girlfriend now!" Simon corrected.Elliot snorted, "Well, it looks like she lied to you."Simon's eyes darkened, not sure if he was telling the truth.But
Two days later, they agreed to meet in a suburb. There were six cars parked on the road.Erin and the others were waiting for Theodore to show up.Theodore's brother, Elliot, was handcuffed to a tree.Ten minutes later, Theodore arrived in a black BMW without a license plate. Queenie was sitting in the passenger seat.The car stopped some miles away from Erin and the others.What surprised Erin was that he didn't tie Queenie. She was completely free.He looked at everyone sinisterly and said, "I have brought her here. Let my brother go."He glanced gloomily at Elliot, who was still handcuffed to the tree."Queenie?" Simon stepped forward.Chandler grabbed him and said, "Don't get too close."Theodore sensed they were a little cautious. He mocked, "I didn't expect you to be so cowardly! Just relax. I didn't install a bomb on her! Even if Queenie is my ex-girlfriend, I wouldn't treat her like that. "Not to mention that my brother is still in your hands.""Hans, bring Ellio
Queenie's words didn't make Simon angry. He looked straight ahead and looked calm without speaking.She was a little surprised by his reaction.She looked at him and couldn't help but ask again, "Did you hear what I said?"He replied indifferently, "I heard it."Her eyes were reddish. She wanted to say something more but didn't know what else to say.She was the one who initiated the breakup. He should be very disappointed."Queenie, I'll pretend you never said that. Forget what you just said.""Simon! I'm serious! I'm not kidding, and I'm not crazy, either!"He couldn't help smiling. "I know.""You—" He looked serious. "You just came back. Now is not a good time to talk about this. We'll talk about it after you go back and rest."She paused. She could hardly mention breaking up after hearing that. Maybe he didn't take her words seriously. She compromised and said, "Okay, we'll talk about it later.""Queenie, are you tired? You can take a nap. It'll take more than an hour
Five minutes later, Simon drove away gloomily.Queenie was sitting in the passenger seat. She blushed and whispered, "Simon, I'm sorry ..."As he couldn't fulfill his desire, he said stiffly, "You don't need to apologize.""I didn't know you wanted to ...""Stop talking." His cheeks were also a little red.Five minutes ago, when he was about to sleep with her, she stopped him.It was not that she didn't want to but couldn't. She was on her period.She lowered her head and said softly, "I'll be fine after a few days ...""Let's talk about it later."His indifference made her feel embarrassed. It sounded like she couldn't wait to do that thing.The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.After a few minutes, she took the initiative to explain, "Theodore and I ..."He seemed calm, but his heartbeat sped up."I never slept with Theodore before."Her answer surprised him. "I didn't expect that."She smiled. "Maybe you don't believe what I say."He responded calmly, "I believe it
Erin's sigh made Chandler smile. "Wifey, you should be glad we won't have a fourth child.""Holy crap! Of course, there won't be a fourth baby! Even if you want it, I won't agree!""I already have four children. It's enough."His words made her frown. "Where did you get your fourth child? Do you have an illegitimate child?""Nonsense! Where did I get an illegitimate child?""You just said you have four children!"He sighed. "Idiot, the fourth child is you! You're my big baby!"She paused, then smiled. "Hubby, you want to raise me as your daughter?""Can't I?""Hehe! Then I can be as arrogant as I want from now on!"He chuckled. "You're already as arrogant as you want."She quibbled, "When did I become arrogant? I'm virtuous and sensible ...""Aren't you shameless to say that? I'm the one who is virtuous and sensible."Before she could reply, her phone rang.Ryder asked, "Hey, when will you arrive?""What's the rush? We're almost there! There's a traffic jam on the road."
"Oh my God! Doctor! Help!"Erin instantly became panicked. Roman ran to the corridor to find a doctor.Ryder said, "Erin, let's go over."The three of them looked at Roman and walked forward.Soon, the emergency room doctor checked his daughter's condition. Then, he arranged to send her to the operating room.He stood in the corridor palely and seemed out of his mind.She felt very depressed after seeing that. It was her first time seeing Roman like this.When her phone rang, she answered, "Chandler, we're still upstairs. We just met Roman ..."She briefly explained the situation. Chandler told her that he and Kylan would come upstairs as well.Five minutes later, the elevator door opened.Chandler and Kylan found Erin and the others. They all stayed with Roman.He asked, "Roman, where is Ingrid?"Roman leaned against the wall and said, "We quarreled at the supermarket two hours ago. She left the child and walked away. I don't know where she is.""How did your daughter get
"Are you crazy? Shirley is still undergoing surgery, and you're asking me for a divorce?"Ingrid was furious and emotional."You're no longer worthy of being my wife!""Why am I not worthy?" she yelled.Roman said sternly, "You know what you have done!""I don't know what you're talking about! Make it clear!"Erin frowned at her aggressiveness.This scene was getting more embarrassing."Ingrid, calm down," Chandler advised.She glanced at him. "This is our matter! You have no right to interfere!""You shameless shrew! You're embarrassing your husband!" Ryder said coldly."Don't think I dare not scold you because you're Roman's friend! Get out of here! It's none of your business!"Roman seemed to have exhausted all his patience and energy.If it weren't for the fact that the child hadn't finished the surgery, he wouldn't be able to stay any longer.Just then, the operating light went out.The attending doctor came out and said, "Don't worry. The child has made it through
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
