About one and a half hours later, the Winters family sat at the dining table.Ninian and Harold could not hold themselves back the most. They held the cutlery and started eating.Other members of the Winters family still retained the elegance and demeanor that they should have, but their movements were significantly faster than in the past.“Aww! It’s really delicious!” Ninian chewed the meat in his mouth while she said, “Mommy, your cooking skills are even better than the chefs in the state dinner. It’s been a long time since I last ate the food you cooked.”Adina smiled faintly before she picked up a piece of fish and put it on Ninian’s plate. “Just eat as much as you like. It’ll help you to grow.”Ninian was unrestrained as she stuffed everything into her mouth.Looking at the happiness and satisfaction on her children’s faces as they ate, Adina smiled faintly. However, her eyes were filled with guilt.All these years, she would travel almost all year long due to her health a
“Your mucus has stained Dad and Mom’s shirts,” Alden also said with contempt.“It’s alright. Dad and Mom won’t despise me. I’m their little sweetheart too!” Harold grinned and said.Duke glanced at him. “You’re a grown-up now, but you’re still shameless.” Although he spoke with contempt, he did not push Harold away. His tone was filled with faint joy.Adina smiled too. “Why can’t you grow up?”The family’s laughter lasted for a long time.After their warm time together, they shifted their focus back to the dining table and fought for food as usual.It was only when the dinner almost ended that the family started talking about important things.“Dad, Mom, I want to report something to you,” when George, the eldest brother, said it, he sounded nervous, which was unusual. “I want to… get married.”“Get married?”Duke and Adina were surprised at the same time.They knew that the two of their baby daughters were in a relationship. Melody confessed to her junior, Brooklyn, at the m
When Duke and Adina heard this, they were stunned before they chuckled.“Hal, let’s talk about getting married after you grow up. You’re still a kid.” Adina smiled and replied.Harold was just a child in their eyes.Perhaps he heard that his brother wanted to propose, and he found it fun, so he wanted to join in on the fun.“No! I’m already a grown man. I’m not a kid anymore!” Harold muttered. He pulled the hem of Adina’s shirt and coquettishly said, “Mom, I really want to get married. I have a girlfriend, and her name is Lana Sutton. She’s a good girl. We have compatible views on life!”When Adina and Duke heard his words, they were taken aback.Was this kid serious?Besides, who was Lana?Had this silly boy been fooled by a girl?The two of them looked each other in the eyes, and they saw worries in each other’s eyes.“Dad, Mom, Lana is Grapie’s assistant. She is cheerful and bright, and she gets along with Hal really well,” George explained.Duke and Adina instantly sighe
The Winters family asked, “What?”Ninian was dumbstruck before she also said, “What?”He was talking nonsense!When Adina heard that, she instantly grinned. “Grapie, is there a suitable girl whom you want to introduce to Alden?”Meanwhile, Duke frowned. “How can a girl like you always think about love? Your studies and career are the most important!”Ninian was tearfully desperate. “I really didn’t do anything…” She looked askance and glared at Alden, while he remained calm and did not care about her.Ninian narrowed her eyes menacingly and revealed her little canine tooth. “I remember now. I do have a candidate that I can introduce to Alden.”The Winters family instantly became surprised.“Grapie, who is it? How’s the girl? Does Alden like her?” Adina kept asking.Alden also looked at Ninian and realized that there was a scheme brewing in his sister’s eyes. His heart skipped a beat, and he thought of something bad.Ninian continued. “I think Alden likes her. They added eac
When Duke heard what she said, he seemed to have trouble responding. “Are you sure that Al has suffered a blow?”Based on his understanding of Alden, the brat must have been very confident, and the girl probably could not resist him.“He must have!” Adina nodded strongly. “Although Alden looks strong and indifferent, he’s actually the one who becomes soft-hearted the easiest. If he gets hurt, he’ll keep it to himself. He won’t let us know…” As Adina spoke, she appeared depressed.The corner of Duke’s lips twitched.What should he do when his son left totally different impressions on him and his wife?In his opinion, if Alden was really hurt, he would secretly exact revenge. He would not keep it to himself and secretly heal.Yes, this son was the most soft-hearted, but he was also the most cunning and vindictive.However, Duke dared not say all of this. He could only comfort Adina while he kept motioning at Alden.This brat was usually the least worrisome. Why was he making hi
Melody and Ninian were speechless.Their expressions instantly darkened, and they looked at Alden with annoyance.Meanwhile, Duke looked refreshed. It was quite good that they were not getting married. He would raise them.“Fine, I’ll just wait for Georgie and Hal’s good news first.” Adina massaged her forehead as she sighed and said, “Al, you… I won’t force you.”Alden was speechless.Alden’s expression totally darkened. His beloved mother was not hinting but clearly expressing her opinion.He slowly took the napkin and wiped the corners of his lips before he smiled faintly and said, “Dad, Mom, I’ve finished my dinner. I still have something to do, so I’ll go out first.”Ninian winked at Melody. Alden was running away out of anger.Alden looked at Ninian with an unfriendly gaze. “Grapie, thank you for helping me explain. When it’s time to talk about Everett and you, I’ll help you out too.”Ninian was at a loss for words.Oh, no!She had made a mistake!Sob! Was it still po
He was blocked?Alden’s gaze darkened slightly. Under the streetlight, his expression became a little difficult to read. His slender figure left a long and lonely shadow on the ground.What was Nerola thinking? Was she rejecting him?Alden pursed his lips slightly. If Adina stood there, she would be able to tell that his gaze went black for a short time. He even looked lost and anxious.Just as Adina said, he had been capable since he was little. He was highly intelligent, and he never failed at anything.However, he was really suffering a setback now, and he did not even know how to deal with it.It would be simple for him to hack Nerola’s phone and unblock his own number.But Alden did not want to do that.He was overbearing, but he also had his own pride. He still knew how to respect her.If Nerola really refused to meet him, what… should he do?It was Alden’s first time feeling lost and puzzled.He stood firmly downstairs for a long time. He raised his head, stared at a
After her heart stopped for a moment, it pounded quickly.It was Alden!He actually showed up in front of her house.Just as Nerola was about to go over and open the door, she suddenly stopped walking. She lowered her head and sized herself up.Her hair was wet, and she was in a bathrobe as well as slippers. She was not fully dressed, and she looked slovenly.How could she meet him like this?Her face instantly turned red.“Hang… Hang on!” She wore her slippers and tried to change her outfit while she blow-dried her hair. Her room was on the right, while the hair dryer was on the left. After she struggled for a while, she became dizzy.He knocked on the door again, and the faster rhythm indicated the person’s emotions at that moment.Nerola stood still and felt like crying.Fine, she would resign herself to fate and just be.If he wanted to despise her, she could not do anything about it.She had blocked his number and ignored him for so long, so she guessed that she had al
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,
