They could not interfere with this. It was George’s personal matter, and he also did not want his siblings to know that he was hurt in a relationship.Alden gently breathed out, closed his eyes, and said, “I got it.”He would not do anything to Raina or interfere with this.They had to believe George that he could get up from where he fell down.“Actually, I think Raina has her own reasons.” Ninian stuck out her tongue and spoke shyly. Although saying this made it seem like she betrayed their revolutionary kinship with George, she had this feeling for some reason.“Grapie, what are you saying? You’re still too innocent!” Harold clicked his tongue before he sighed and said, “You’re another George.”George was fooled, and so was she.“I actually… agree with Grapie’s thought.” Melody’s gentle tone was filled with doubt. “We saw how well Raina treated George in the past, and it was definitely as simple as competitiveness. When she looked at George, her eyes were full of stars and lo
Knock! Knock!Someone knocked on the room door several times.The room was still silent.George sat in front of the desk without turning the lights on. He silently stared at the colorful streetlights and crowded street outside the French windows.The people outside his room did not seem to be giving up. They knocked on the door once again.Only then did George slowly look back and glance at the door.He had given strict instructions, so his assistant would definitely not dare to knock on the door without an emergency. Since there was another knock, he guessed that something must have happened.He massaged his forehead before he pushed away his dejection and stood up.He straightened his back and raised his chin slightly. He still maintained his image as the mature and calm CEO of Winters Corporation. He did not have too much time to indulge himself in a sad relationship.Countless people were still supporting and waiting on him.He had to be so strong that he was impeccable a
As she spoke, she rubbed her belly and looked like a pitiful kitten.George could no longer turn her down. He walked toward her before he turned back and looked at Harold. “Do you want to join us?”Harold firmly shook his head. “No, thanks, Georgie! I wish you a happy mealtime with Grapie!”After he spoke, he cast an unspoken glance at Ninian, speedily closed the door, and left.George looked at Harold’s back and shook his head. “So immature.”“Georgie, I’ve made your favorite pork chop, fish filets, and garlic prawns! Come and taste them!” As Ninian spoke, she lifted the lids of the containers, and the aroma instantly filled the room.She took a breath in an intoxicated manner, and her crinkled eyes brightened. “It smells so good! It must be very delicious!”“Did you cook my favorite food or your favorite food?” George raised his eyebrows, and joy flashed in his eyes.“They are our favorites! Haha! Because we’re siblings!” Ninian stuffed a fork into George’s hand and gave him
“Before Raina broke up with Georgie, she went missing for half a month,” Alden said, “Half a month before that, her father’s business went bankrupt, and he got drunk out of sadness. He drove her younger brother and fell into the river.”“What?”This change shocked Ninian and the others.“I remember that Raina’s family background was pretty good. Her mother died young, but she was close with her father and her younger brother. Her father pampered the siblings very much, so Raina was also quite cheerful and warm.” Harold could not help but sigh and say, “It’s so unexpected… that this would happen to her.”Ninian also nodded, and her eyes turned slightly red. “How could she bear such a tragedy? Raina was not even twenty at that time, right?”“Did George know about this?” Melody asked.Since she had broken up with George at this point, what did George do?“George didn’t know about it. Besides, he also went missing within half a month after Raina went missing,” Alden said.“What? Wh
When Melody looked at his cold and heartless side profile, she held his hand and shook her head. “Al, your thoughts are too extreme. It’s only because of the existence of love that there are grudges and harm. I think during the half a month that George went missing, Raina must have also gone through a period of torment. There must be a special reason that made her break up with Georgie after half a month. George isn’t the only person who got hurt in this relationship.”Alden held himself back for a while, but he still did not say anything in the end. He just looked down indifferently.“I think Mel is right.” Ninian nodded as well. “I really want to go and ask Raina what truly made her break up with George. Her performance in the cafe just now also proves that she actually can’t let him go.”“Grapie!” Alden suddenly looked at her sternly. “You can’t go and ask her. I won’t allow you to interfere with this.”“What?” Ninian was slightly surprised. She raised her head and looked at him
“Okay.” He raised his arms to surrender before he threw all his cigarettes and the lighter from his pocket into the trash can.“What should we do now?” he asked. He looked askance at his sister’s indifferent and gorgeous side profile, appearing helpless. “I can’t figure out their relationship. I can only leave this to you.”“I want to talk to Raina,” Melody said. “Although we can’t tell her about Grapie’s incident, I can at least understand what occupies her mind. I think she didn’t just break up because George didn’t accompany her. Something else must have happened that broke her heart completely.”“Sure,” Alden said casually. “If you can’t handle her, I’ll do it on my own.”He spoke leisurely, but coldness flashed in his eyes.Melody could not help but have goosebumps. “Al, you’re a leader in the National Security Network. Can you stop behaving like a dangerous person? It’s scary, okay?” she said.Alden replied, “Nonsense.”Was he dangerous?He was clearly a righteous person.
“You don’t say!” Harold said cheerfully. He was feeling extremely pleased with himself. Earlier, he had sworn that he would not compromise on Ninian’s request. But those words were thrown in the bin as if he had never said those words in his life.Everyone knew that Harold never took his oaths seriously. Soon, Harold and Ninian arrived at the hotel where Raina stayed. They ran into her at the stairs, saving them the trouble of looking for her. “Hal! Ninian!” Raina said in shock, “Why are you here?”“Hey, Raina. What a coincidence! It has been so long!” Ninian stammered from the sudden bout of nervousness.Harold patted her head to comfort her. He then looked at Raina with severity in his gaze. “Raina, we came here to look for you.”“Me?” Raina’s expression changed. She became cold and vigilant. “What for?”“Why don’t we go somewhere else to chat?” Harold said as he pointed to the passersby who were watching them. Ten minutes later, they were in a cafe beside the hotel.
“At that time, everyone was in shock. Daddy was furious, and everyone else blamed themselves for it…”Ninian’s voice quivered as she recalled her dark past. Her usually lit-up bright eyes were now welling up with tears and looked dull. “George personally dealt with that man. He even… turned violent…“At that time, George was upset. Everyone… was also upset…”“Okay, Ninian. Enough!” Raina said out loud. She could not bear it anymore. “It’s all in the past now…”“I’d never once seen George work so hard. He blamed himself for the incident…” Ninian was deep into her memories. The shackles of trauma that kept her from moving on were not the incident itself, but instead, it was the guilt the family felt from the incident.Her face was pale and clenched her fingers as she said, “George and Alden barely slept, Mommy and Melody cried secretly, and Harold, the most cheerful person I know, did not smile for half a year…”“Grapie…” Harold looked at her pale face, her eyes couldn’t help b
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,
