"What's wrong with you?" Trinity stared at Neil in confusion. "Don't you usually love promoting rookies?"Neil pursed his lips and said nothing.Trinity said it herself that he would usually do that!That was right. If they were in Centrolis, he was willing to promote the juniors and give opportunities to rookies.However, Aurelia was an exception!He knew that if Aurelia was recognized, it would be a piece of cake for her to be famous, given her talent and appearance.However, fame came at a price, especially in the toxic entertainment industry.She did not come from a prestigious background. Even if she did, she could not prevent people from scheming against her.Most importantly, as soon as an actress became famous, she could not prevent the gossip…When Neil thought that there might be gossip revolving around her and other actors…Neil's face was cold as he remained silent.He clenched his fists. Where did this strange feeling come from exactly?He could not figure that
"You've misunderstood." Neil glanced at her coldly. "I don't plan to be in this movie at the moment.""Only 'at the moment', right?" Ava said with a smile, "I'll get someone to contact your agent! You might want to be in the movie when you see the salary!"Neil looked terrible.He had heard from Cordelia that Zephyr had an irritating cousin. He had advised her to be good to his family members since she was married into the family. He had also told her not to behave like the princess of the Irwins from Southeast Aciatic.He was eager to take his words back and eat them now!Not only was Ava irritating, but she was also full of herself.It was no wonder that she remained unpopular despite being in the Bakers for years!Ava looked proud, "Mr. Harris, you're my cousin-in-law's cousin, right? Ha, Zephyr is my cousin. We're considered family too!"Neil had no expression on his face as he said coldly, "Are you done?""Don't go yet!" She went forward and squeezed Aurelia out. She too
Just when Zephyr was thinking to himself, a voice suddenly echoed like thunder."You unfilial son!""Mom?""What are you doing? Why aren't you holding Cordelia!?" Janine ran over quickly and pushed him away. She held Cordelia's arm while scolding her son."She's due soon and must be extra careful when she walks! You got your wife to chase after you behind you while you walk in front like a boss? You're useless!"Zephyr was rendered speechless.What did it feel like for one's biological mother to become the stepmother? What did it feel like to lose the status of being the favorite one? Please follow Mr. Z's live stream. We will explain it to you in detail!"Cordelia, watch where you walk… Hehe. Isn't the courtyard clean now? I got people to clean it yesterday. There isn't even a stone here!"That's right, left foot first… Watch your step!"You're doing so good, Cordelia!"Zephyr was annoyed.No matter what, his mother loved his wife more and more. Meanwhile, everyone in the f
Hannah picked up the bowl on the table directly as she spoke.As she was about to eat the dessert, she heard Cordelia say with a chuckle, "It's not that I can't bear to let you eat it, but you shouldn't eat this when you're pregnant."Hannah froze as she held the spoon."This is imported from Southeast Aciatic. There are many expensive herbs in it. But it's not suitable for pregnant ladies. You might have a miscarriage if you eat it."Janine scoffed, "Sister-in-law, Cordelia's parents sent this for my father. You sure are eager to take it for yourself."Hannah was stunned. She put down the spoon and pushed the dessert away.Franklin did not have the patience to stay. He stood up with his cane and went back to the house."Eh? What's wrong with dad!?" Noah asked foolishly. "Sister, is dad upset?"Janine rolled her eyes at him."It's okay, wifey!" Noah looked at Hannah and said with a smile. "I'll get them to make you anything you like! All of the chefs are here. I'll—""Noah, y
"What if she has thought about that?""Hmm… It proves that she wants this child for something else!" answered Cordelia. "First of all, she's not young. She probably shouldn't be having babies with her condition. Secondly, do you remember what she told us?"Zephyr recalled that during the Baker Group's meeting, Hannah had attended as Prestige Agency's representative.She had been bitter in the meeting, saying that some people had been stalking her. She had been upset.Of course, she had been talking about Zephyr's men.Zephyr came to a realization. "Which means she'd accuse us if something happened to her child!"Cordelia nodded with all seriousness.If Hannah really were to give birth to the child, the risk would be too great. After all, the child had Chuck's bloodline. She would die if that was uncovered.Moreover, she was not young. There was a higher chance for her to suffer complications, and the child might be disabled.She was not stupid. It was impossible that she would
Zephyr was smirking on the other side of the phone.Cordelia and Carter's peals of laughter came from the living room.He looked inside and saw the few young maids surrounding him. They fed him snacks and tea and took extra care of him.Their eyes were lit up.Zephyr chuckled. Indeed, Carter had changed. He recalled when he was the boy who was bullied terribly in school. He would cry in the middle of the night, complaining to his sister. In the end, his brother-in-law would have to fend for him.And now, Carter was the official heir of Irwin Pharmaceuticals.Rowan taught and guided him, paving Carter's way for him. Meanwhile, Carter was hardworking. He had shown his outstanding talent in medicine since he was young.Not only did he graduate medical school two years in advance, but he also mastered medicine-making and acupuncture quickly.He had a halo on his head just by sitting there. He was majestic in everything he did."Hubby!" Cordelia smiled and waved to get him to come
See, his sister was so nervous even when Zephyr choked on water!Carter chuckled and slipped away with the excuse of wanting to sleep due to his jetlag.Zephyr recovered and felt like laughing, looking at Cordelia."I didn't expect my father-in-law to be so brutal.""Yeah," Cordelia answered as she patted his back. "He has a successor for his silver needles now!"Zephyr suddenly thought of something. Carter was great medically, so it might be useful.Cordelia snuggled Zephyr like a kitten. "Darling, I'm sleepy.""Let's go back to sleep in our room.""But I don't want to walk…""Fine." Zephyr was ready to fulfill all her requests. "I'll carry you!" he said as he princess-carried Cordelia and went upstairs slowly."Darling, it's like I don't need legs anymore after encountering you!""No way," Zephyr said softly. "You don't need them most of the time, but there's a time when you do.""When?""When you're unhappy," he said with a smile and an indulging gaze, "You can kick me
Hannah hooked a finger to gesture Ava closer to talk. When the latter sat down in front of her, she lowered her voice to a mere whisper."Ava, of course, this child can't be kept…""What?" Ava was stunned.Since her mother was pregnant, she felt like the baby that had not been born yet would take her already scarce love away, so she was incredibly displeased.Now that she heard what Hannah said, she wavered. After all, this was her sibling of the same mother. If it were really a boy, he might be useful to her in the future."Why, mom? Did the doctor say it can't survive?""I know my own body." Hannah looked at her. "It's too risky for someone at my age to give birth. Even if it's born, it might not be easy to raise… Besides, he's not the fool's, so…""Mom, the fool doesn't even know! Look how happy he's been. He'll keep protecting you!""No!" Hannah's expression changed. "Noah's a fool but not Zephyr and Cordelia!"Ava widened her eyes. "Did they find out?""Not for now, but
