“I…” Dew grabbed her own collar.Of course she was afraid!She was afraid that Adina would discover who the two young masters in the Winters family actually were!She was afraid that the Winters family would find out what happened four years ago!She was afraid that all her beautiful dreams over the last four years would break into pieces.Dew bit her bottom lip with all her strength before she was able to suppress her anxiety.“George… I’m afraid…” She moved forward and held George’s little hands. “Adina and I are stepsisters, but the conflict between us is too strong. It can’t be resolved. She's back now, and she won’t easily spare me. She'll hurt you and your brother.” She looked down and continued to slowly say, “I asked you to investigate Adina’s child because I want to have something on her. That way, she'll think twice about doing anything. Who knew that Harold would misunderstand like this? George, forget it. Don’t look into her. You and Harold are sons of the Winters
Just then, the bell in the preschool rang.School was over.A group of four-year-old children ran out happily.Dew raised her finger and sneered. “Your daughter's coming out. She looks exactly like you when you were a child.”She made it sound as if she had seen Melody countless times ......“I'll always remember how my two sons died four years ago. One day, I'll make you pay with your blood.” Adina grabbed Dew by the collar. “If you dare to hurt my daughter, I'll scrape the flesh off your body piece by piece!”The hatred in her eyes was so strong like an endless fire.Dew’s heart tightened for a while.She forced herself to calm down and said, “I'm your sister and the child’s aunt. Why would I hurt her?”She moved out of Adina’s grip before she took a step back and coldly said, “I didn’t prepare a gift this time, so I won't say hello to your daughter. Goodbye!”After she finished speaking, she turned around and left.She only had one purpose for today's visit, which was to
However, he found that Melody’s face was expressionless, while her eyes looked gloomy.It seemed like the word “daddy” had just been a hallucination.Melody had never even said "Mom." Why would she say "Daddy"?He must have heard it wrongly.After dinner, Adina helped Melody take a bath and cleaned up before she put the little girl to bed.Ever since Alden turned three and became more mature, she no longer had to help him with such matters. After she took care of Melody, she returned to the study to continue working.Her studio was in its preparation stage, but she already had two projects on hand. One was Xavier Corporation’s daily maintenance and subsequent update of intelligent products, while the other was the initial design preparation for Project A-F. The latter project required a lot of manpower, but she was having trouble with recruitment. It seemed that she had to look for her cousin for help.She remained busy until midnight.Adina did some stretches before she got re
On the street with a lot of traffic, Alden anxiously looked to the left and right before he finally saw a little girl in a pink dress.It was Melody!He immediately rushed toward her.Who would have thought that a sports car would speedily approach and drive past him?By the time the car drove away, Melody had disappeared.Alden’s head was full of sweat.When they went to preschool that morning, he had sensed something was wrong with Melody.He talked to her for a long time, but she did not respond.Then, he went to the toilet, and when he came back, Melody was gone.If Mom knew that Melody had gone missing from preschool, she would lose her mind.He had to get his sister back before his mom found out!Alden took a deep breath and continued to walk along the road, looking for Melody from store to store.At the same time, Melody was getting on a bus.She was following a woman with a child. She sat beside the woman, and the boy in the woman’s arms secretly looked at her.Sh
“What happened, Mr. Perez?”Jake went downstairs to do some work and saw Mr. Perez, the tall and imposing head of the security team, lying down on the floor. He looked slightly hilarious.Mr. Perez stroked his own nose. “A little girl rushed in, and she’s hiding under the table. What do you think I should do, Mr. Wilson?”Jake cast a glance at the bottom of the table. Mr. Perez lifted the table cloth so that he could see the little girl’s wide eyes from where he was.Her eyes were filled with vigilance, fear, and anxiety.The lighting was dim under the table, but Jake could still see that she was a fair and cute little girl.Jake’s heart melted a little, and he said, “It looks like this girl is just about three years old. Her guardian should be nearby. Don’t frighten the kid. Just bring her to the resting lounge and wait for her guardian to claim her.”Mr. Perez hummed before he bent down, went under the table, and retrieved the little girl.When Melody saw the hand that extend
Melody looked up at Duke with her black eyes.She looked so pretty like an exquisite doll, but this doll seemed slightly embarrassed now.She had hidden in the flowerbed for two hours. Her dress was torn up, and her face, as well as hands, were full of dirt.Her pink little dress had become yellowish, and there were a few pieces of leaves in her hair.Her eyes were the only clean and clear parts of her entire body.Mr. Perez lifted her with contempt.How dare this dirty kid hug Mr. Winters?!If her parents were there, they might need to compensate him until they went bankrupt!“Throw her out!”Jake reluctantly gave the instruction.It was really cruel to throw an adorable little girl out.However, he knew that Mr. Winters had severe mysophobia. If the little girl kept staying there and getting in his way, the consequences would be terrible for her.Mr. Winters could even hurt his own sons, more so a dirty little girl.Jake motioned for Mr. Perez to bring the little girl aw
Duke carried Melody, turned around, and went into the Winters Corporation building.Two hours ago, Jake told him that a little girl rushed into the building. If he got downstairs earlier, Melody would not have been frightened like this.This beautiful girl almost became a little beggar.Everyone at the entrance looked at each other at a loss.“Mr. Wilson, what’s going on?” Mr. Perez widened his eyes. “Mr. Winters took the girl. Nothing will happen, right?”Jake recalled Duke’s speaking tone, and he shook his head. “It should be fine. Please pay attention to the entrance. Maybe some parents who lost their daughter will come over to look for her.”Mr. Perez quickly nodded and went back to his work.Jake stroked his chin. Why did he feel that the girl’s eyes looked slightly similar to Mr. Winters’ eyes?If he did not know that this girl’s background was unknown, he nearly thought that she was the lady of the Winters family.Duke carried Melody to the top floor.“Why would you ap
After Adina talked about recruitment with Ethan, she attempted to drink some coffee.Her phone suddenly vibrated on the table.She cast a glance. It was from Ms. Jones.It had been some time since the kids went to preschool, but Ms. Jones had never contacted her during school hours.Adina put down her glass and answered the call, “Hello, Ms. Jones.”“Mdm. Daugherty, something happened.” Ava’s voice trembled. “Melody’s missing.”“What did you say?”Adina instantly raised her voice.She found a quieter place, tried her best to stay calm, and said, “Miss Jones, what happened? Please speak slowly.”“Alden and Melody went missing during the morning exercise time today. I checked the surveillance camera at 8.40 am, Melody left the preschool alone. Ten minutes later, Alden also sneaked out of school to look for his sister.”Adina’s heart was hung up. “Do you mean Mel went missing for two hours?”She held the phone tightly, grabbed her car key, and walked outside.“Madam Daugherty,
The screen was full of comments like, “I can’t accept this sadness.”When the host saw the audience overreacting, he smiled to smooth out the situation and said, “Have you forgotten? Ninian just said that she wanted to announce some good news!”His words reminded everyone at the venue.With that, almost everyone held their breath and listened to her.“Everett and I will be holding a wedding soon!”“What?!”“Ah! Awesome! The day has finally come!”“Sob! Ninian and Everett finally have a happy ending! I’m going to cry! They’re my youth! I’ve witnessed love that has gone the distance!”“You have my blessings! You have to be happy for the rest of your lives!”Their cheers grew louder and louder, almost overturning the whole award hall.Everett was standing backstage. When Ninian saw the scene, she turned back, looked into his eyes, and smiled.They were finally getting married.The eighth of September was a good day for their wedding.The headlines in the entertainment section
The Winters family fell silent again.Among the three sisters-in-law, Lana was already so moved that she wept. Raina and Nerola were stronger, but their eyes turned red too.The Winters brothers, who were initially touched, instantly appeared dissatisfied as a result.They were actually moved and crying for other men? Women, you were playing with fire!Naturally, the Winters brothers did not have a chance to vent their anger because Duke had already stood up.He walked to the similarly outstanding young men, who were standing side by side, and patted their shoulders. At this moment, he seemed to age a little. He did not look like the overlord who dominated the business industry in the past.“From now on, I’ll leave my two babies to you.”When Brooklyn and Everett heard this, they were taken aback, but their eyes were soon filled with excitement.Before they could respond, Duke had already walked far away. Meanwhile, Adina got up abruptly to accompany him.She turned back and l
“Uncle Duke,” Brooklyn and Everett greeted Duke at the same time.Brooklyn was older, so he moved a step forward first and said, “Uncle Duke, this is something that I prepared three years ago. All properties under my name, including shares that aren’t limited to the family business, properties, estates, stocks, etc… were transferred to Mel three years ago. Whether in the past or in the future, everything I have, including my life, will belong to her.”Melody was shocked when he said that.All his properties had been transferred to her? He never mentioned anything to her. He just silently gave her everything.“Daddy…” Melody looked at Duke, and her clear gaze was filled with helplessness which was rare.Brooklyn was the only person, other than her family, who was willing to sacrifice everything for her.Such love that was enthusiastic, reserved, hidden, yet deep and long-lasting made her heart seize.George took the documents from Brooklyn and passed them to Duke.Duke flipped t
At the same time, Alden replied to her.“Daddy and Mommy are just in the next city. The journey will take two hours.”Melody was speechless. She was right!There was murderous intent on the indifferent and delicate girl’s face.Good! Great! She wanted to see where her father could hide this time!When Ninian came out after putting her makeup on, it was still early. There were still two hours before the ceremony’s banquet.There was still half an hour left before her father came home. At this time, Melody secretly called Everett and Brooklyn to come over. They were fully prepared, and they just waited for Duke to return home.At the side, George, Raina, Harold, Lana, Alden, and Nerola were watching the show.After the Winters sisters worked hard, the three of their sisters-in-law were successfully bribed to support them to get married as soon as possible.Even the three of their henpecked brothers also took their sides.Now, the Winters siblings had everything ready. They we
Her words were audible in the live stream, and they instantly caused a big fuss.[Ninian has a kid!][Is “the Everett” a dad now?][Sob! I knew that they secretly got married!][How could they not live broadcast my husband and wife’s wedding?]The comments on the screen kept moving, while Ninian was clueless on the other side.She just said, “It’s our baby. Please make the necessary arrangements, thank you.”The comments became more frenzied.[?][!]A series of symbols occupied the whole screen. After Ninian hung up, they were still rolling.The netizens were worked up.By the time the venue’s staff realized this, it had become the top trending topic.[#The Everett and Ninian secretly got married!][#Baby Ninian has a kid!][#The Everett is a father now!]Crazy, screaming fans filled the bottom of the screams.The couple had been together for so long, and the fans had gotten used to them from not accepting them at the beginning.After all, Ninian grew up quickly befo
There was also “as long as a woman had a stable job and strong support from her family, she would be happy and relaxed even if she stayed single for her whole life.”She could go on.Besides, what was more cunning about Duke was that he would never post the quotes using his own account. He would use his wife’s, Adina’s WhatsApp, to post inspirational quotes and links every time.In the beginning, it caused the Winters siblings to panic for a time, and they thought that their mother opposed their marriage.They sighed in relief only after Alden unintentionally hacked his father’s account. He realized that his father had found the posts and forwarded them to his mother before posting them using his mother’s phone.It was fine. It was normal for the father-in-law to trouble his sons-in-law.It was the same theory as the mother-in-law having conflicts with her daughters-in-law.However, the roles changed in their family. It was the father who was being antagonistic toward the daught
Reverie’s smile was sincere and genuine.She initially helped Ninian only because she thought that Ninian was great. Besides, Ninian said she wanted to rely on herself before the casting, which also impressed and moved her.Unexpectedly, she gave herself an opportunity with her unintentional act. That made Reverie feel blessed and surprised.Hearing what she said, Ninian felt warm and comforted.Everyone thought that the entertainment industry was filthy and full of schemes.In reality, there were many people who pursued their dreams and worked very hard there. There were also many people who helped and supported each other.When there were people, there would be competition, but there would also be warmth and sincerity.Ninian filmed her scenes in an orderly manner.As for the Winters siblings, their relationships also developed smoothly.George had happily begun preparing for his wedding. Raina was not a pretentious person either, and the couple had discussions about how the
However, to the surprise of those haters, Ninian, who was acting for the first time, not only did not drop the ball on any of her performances in the Oscar-level mission, but she also managed to portray her own charm and personality in the character very well.From her gentleness and firmness at the start to the grandeur during the protest to her enthusiasm and passion even when captured by the enemy and taken to the execution ground, her character arc represented the experiences of countless revolutionary predecessors.She had absorbed the spirits of many ancestors into her body. Seeing her alone demonstrated the bravery and unstoppable power of Cairnstan’s youth.Before she was executed, she looked at the rising sun and showed a gentle and firm smile.In the end, gunshots rang out, and her body dropped to the ground. However, the sun rose all the way and illuminated the earth.Numerous people were moved and went wild at the scene where she smiled. It was not until everyone’s e
“What? What turn of events?” Nilson immediately asked. “We have defenders!”“Defenders? What defenders? Are you talking about soccer now?” With wide eyes, Nilson asked.“No, not those types of defenders! What I mean is that someone stepped in and is explaining on Ms. Winters’ behalf! But it’s not one of our people. It’s defenders from outside!” explained the staff. “What?” Nilson immediately stood up. “Let me see!”The staff quickly handed the phone over to him, and the website page on the screen kept on refreshing. [@ActressReverieWood: “I’ve worked with the Winters family’s little princess before. She has a lovely personality. She’s soft-spoken and well-behaved, and she has no temper at all. What surprised me the most was her acting skills. She was a rookie who was full of presence, and she could easily blend into the concept. Most actors, including myself, admire someone as talented as her.]A few short clips were attached under the tweet, all of which were from the show,
