Remy was still all smiles. “I’ve never experienced being given a stalk of grass. I shall wait for you to do so.”“That’s simple. I can get you a sack of grass the next time I go to the market.”“Should I rear a cow too?”Elisa smiled sweetly. “Don’t you dare feed the grass I gave you to a cow.”“I wouldn’t.”Elisa took two sets of new clothes from the shopping bags and gave them to Remy. “Do you like them? I bought this brand because all your clothes come from them. There are shirts, suits, and many other things.”She even bought a dozen underwear for Remy but was too embarrassed to take them out. She stuffed them into the bags. He would see them after getting home and taking the clothes out. Remy put the bouquet down. He browsed Elisa’s shopping haul and beamed. “Of course I like the clothes you bought. Their sizes fit me perfectly too.”“You silly. Of course I’ll buy clothes that fit you.“There are two neckties too.”Elisa retrieved them. Lastly, she revealed the watch.
Among Remy's elder brothers, only the third eldest remained unmarried, but he already had someone in mind. As Remy and Elisa were dating, it was his younger brothers who were concerned about being targeted by Jane. They would get nervous every time they saw her.However, they had to meet her frequently because no one could resist Clo-clo.Elisa knew Jane used to write novels. She had even read them before. She asked, “Is Jane not writing anymore? I think her novels are good. Perhaps it’s because I rarely read fiction, but I felt she was extremely creative the first time I read her book.”“Jane’s busy now. She probably doesn’t have time to write. She writes occasionally, but nothing is published. We’re even her source of inspiration.”Elisa giggled. “You can request her to portray you as the protagonist in her story and assign you a harem.”“If I become the protagonist of her novel, the female lead will definitely be you.”Elisa laughed. She suddenly hugged Remy’s neck and kis
After the kiss, Elisa caressed Remy’s face before asking softly, “Are you still angry?”He left soft kisses on her face. “I’m relieved that Julian has found the woman destined for him, but I was still shocked. You should be nice to me to calm me down.”Elisa smiled, “I gave you presents and kisses. Isn’t that nice enough?”Remy pressed her head against his chest and chuckled. “Yes.”“Such a thing probably won’t happen again. If it does, I’ll probably have a heart attack.“We should get engaged as soon as possible and have an extravagant celebration. Let’s make it even grander than Callum and Camryn’s engagement party.”Elisa replied, “I’ll be waiting for you to throw the grandest engagement party Wiltspoon has ever seen.”Then, she left his embrace and asked, “Are you busy? You can continue working. I have to return to my office too.”Remy pulled her back. “Since you’re here, spend some time with me. I’m no longer in the mood to work.”He almost lost his wife. How could he be
Remy did not hide his disgust for the color red. He found it too bright. He and Elisa had opposing opinions about the color; she liked the brightness it held but he hated it. “I’ll exchange them for another color later.”Remy looked toward Elisa and whispered something in her ear. Elisa blushed, but her eyes were filled with anticipation. She said, “Okay. You can keep them. I’ll take note not to buy anything red for you in the future.“It’ll be better if you’re willing to crossdress for me. You’re so handsome. You’ll look good in women’s clothes.”Remy’s expression turned serious. He reminded her sternly, “I’m a man, Elisa. How can a cool guy wear women’s clothing?“I want us to be husband and wife, not look like sisters.”Elisa laughed. “It seems like none of you are willing to crossdress.”“Did Serenity or Jasmine request their men to do the same?”“Zachary and Josh will never wear women’s clothes.” Elisa did not give a direct answer. In fact, Serenity and Jasmine had neve
“You’re not allowed to say you’re useless anymore. I don’t like hearing it.” “Okay. I won’t self-deprecate anymore. I’m an outstanding man.”Elisa said smugly, “Of course. There’s no doubt that the man I’m in love with is the best.”They spent some time together in the office before Elisa left as she had an appointment with a client. Remy saw her off with a longing gaze. Seeing his reluctant look, Elisa stopped and gave him a quick peck on the cheek. She said, “I really have to go to the appointment. I can’t miss it. I’ll pick you up from work after I’m done.“Smile for me. I like to see you smiling. Your smile healed my broken heart.”Remy grinned. “I’ll pick you up instead.”“Okay. I have to go now. You can go on with your work.”Remy stood before the elevator and watched Elisa enter. He only went back after the doors closed and his girlfriend was no longer in sight. Meanwhile, at Queen Enterprise in Jensburg, Kevin’s car stopped at the company’s entrance. He honked for
Kevin quickly took the high heels off once he entered the elevator. He had no idea that wearing high heels was so tricky. No wonder Hayden did not like them and refused to wear them. She was unwilling to return to wearing women’s clothing and preferred dressing up as a man. She also refused the dresses and high heels he gave her. He said he wanted to see her in women’s clothing, and she expressed her wishes to see him crossdress too. Kevin decided to do it on that day. He wore a wig and a dress. It was a small matter. Even putting on some makeup to soften his features was easy. However, the heels were difficult to get used to. He kept stumbling and could not walk in a straight line. Luckily, he was in Jensburg. He did not tell everyone that he was Kevin York either. Otherwise, he would have made the entertainment news headlines if the journalists were to find out. Kevin was even holding a bag, which contained a set of his casual clothes. He would change in Hayden’s offi
“But you’re different. Your features look feminine, so you don’t appear as manly as I do when you dress up as a man. You’ll definitely look stunning in women’s clothing. You’re a woman, after all. Let’s exchange our clothes. I paraded myself in this outfit for you.“You don’t even have to walk around in women’s clothes. You only have to change into them in your lounge and let me look at you.”Hayden was speechless. Kevin actually wore ladies' clothes to her company. Hayden eyed him from head to toe. She could not resist laughing and said, “You look good in a dress, just a little too masculine.”“That’s because I’m a man. I'll always look like one even if I dress as a woman, just as you'll always look like a woman despite disguising yourself as a man for over twenty years.“Hayden, I don't expect you to publicly wear women's clothes like me. Let's go to your lounge, exchange clothes, and let me see you in a dress. I'm curious about how you would look."Kevin stared into Hayden’
However, Hayden also felt genuinely happy whenever she smiled. She was sure of one thing. The change in Kevin’s feelings was noticeable. At first, he only approached her due to his grandmother’s arrangements. Then, he fell in love with her. After sitting for some time, Hayden got up and walked toward the lounge. Kevin had already changed into casual wear but did not have shoes. They were in the car. When he looked at the pair of high heels, he bent over and was about to throw them into the trash can. “Why are you throwing them away? You should keep them. Those are heels worn by the third young master of the Yorks.”Hayden’s teasing rang in the room. Kevin looked over and saw her leaning against the door with her hands in her pockets, bearing a faint smile. “Don’t throw the dress too. Keep them. It’s too bad I didn’t take a picture of you in a dress and a wig.”Hayden looked regretful. She walked to Kevin and took her hands out of her pockets to straighten his shirt.
Trenton was relieved that Dalton was indebted to Camryn. That was why Dalton had been loyal to Newman Enterprise.If Newman Enterprise did not fall into Camryn’s hands, there was no doubt that Dalton would leave the company. If that happened, the company was doomed.When his parents went to prison, he was merely 18, and Carrie only knew how to spend money. Not only that, their relatives were hungry to get a share of the Newman family’s assets. He and Carrie could not have protected their family’s wealth alone.After Camryn regained her sight, she still could not strain her eyes for long hours. Therefore, Dalton remained in charge of the company.Luckily, they had Callum as well. Even if anything were to happen, Callum would not leave Newman Enterprise to fall because many of the Newman family’s assets belonged to Camryn.He would not let Camryn lose anything.“You’ve been brainwashed by Dalton after working with him. Our dad treated him well and trusted him, yet Dalton betrayed
Camryn said, “She’s just using her lack of money as an excuse to start a fight with me.“Do you really think she has no money?”Carrie had somehow become Mrs. Longbottom yet she was still hiding her identity. Camryn had not understood the entire situation yet.Nevertheless, she was certain that Carrie did not need money.After she spoke, a familiar car arrived.It was the car Carrie had always used in the past.When she returned to the Newman family’s villa after getting out of prison, she only drove that car. She could not take other cars. The cars were still parked in the garage. “Come out, Camryn.”Carrie had gotten out of the car and started shouting for Camryn.When the York family’s bodyguards saw her, they simply glanced at her and did not stop her from entering the store. They knew Camryn had always been lenient with her younger sister.Since Camryn did not give any orders to stop Carrie from entering, the bodyguards simply kept an eye on Carrie to ensure that sh
“I want to go to Spring Blossoms as Carrie,” she told the bodyguard who was driving. “Your sister’s people are keeping an eye on your apartment. She’ll get suspicious again if you head over in your outfit. Everything Mr. Longbottom arranged will go to waste,” the bodyguard reminded her.Carrie thought it over. “Okay. Let’s head home first. I’ll change my clothes and remove my makeup before heading over.”She would also check if her stand-in had damaged any of her stuff.If she did, Carrie would tell the stand-in to compensate her.The bodyguard remained silent.Once they arrived at Longbottom Villa, Carrie took off her hyper-realistic mask and removed her makeup. After changing her clothes, she returned to being Carrie and went out with her bag.Her two bodyguards did not stop her from leaving.She could do anything as long as it would not rouse Camryn and other people’s suspicions.Besides, Carrie had just gotten scolded by their boss on the phone. Although Mr. Longbottom
Mr. Longbottom thought he was not so inferior to men younger than him.More accurately, he was far superior. He had status, money, and power.Which of the younger men could be on par with him unless they came from a wealthy family?Many sons of wealthy families could not compete with him.“I can’t go over because I’m busy these days. But I do miss you too.“It’s more difficult because of the festive season. There are many events, and I have to accompany my family. My wife doesn't care about me, but her request is that I be with her during the holidays because we have to meet our friends and families. Do you understand?”Mr. Longbottom had a wife and children. Carrie knew about it. He had never hid that fact.Carrie did not know if he was close to his wife. Although he said they no longer had feelings for each other, Carrie dared not believe him because he had never let other women take his wife’s place.He also never allowed other women to become pregnant with his children.Mr
Carrie thought she had matured since she could figure out that much. In the past, she would not have understood a thing. Love was about accepting everything about someone. Most people could tolerate their partner’s shortcomings when they were deeply in love. However, without love, even a person’s strength would seem like a fault. Carrie smiled. “Mr. York is a workaholic. Serenity must’ve gotten the habit from him and turned into one herself. I can’t believe she’s working so hard even though she’s pregnant.”“She’s still in the early stages of pregnancy. Going to work is fine.”“Do you need anything else, Mrs. Longbottom?” Jasmine asked.“No. I shall take my leave now, Mrs. Bucham.”Jasmine was on guard and unwilling to reveal much about Serenity. Therefore, it would be better for Carrie to leave. She was not close to Serenity and her friends yet. “Bye, Mrs. Longbottom.”Jasmine saw Carrie out and watched as she got into her car.Once Carrie got far enough from the booksto
Mr. Longbottom had been surprised by her question. He told her coldly that she should refrain from asking unnecessary questions.One who knew too much would not live long. Carrie got intimidated and dared not ask another question. Although she got more curious, she did not try to gather more information for fear Mr. Longbottom would choke her again if he found out. “Nothing. I just asked because I haven’t seen her in a while.”Of course, Carrie could not reveal that she was looking for Serenity. Jasmine would get suspicious if she did. No one around Serenity was a fool. “Seren is busy with work. I rarely see her these days,” Jasmine said.Carrie knew it was a lie. She was aware that Serenity's closest friends did not trust her yet. It made her feel defeated. It had been months since Mr. Longbottom found her and asked her to approach Serenity. Despite her efforts, she still had not obtained Serenity’s trust, let alone become her friend.However, Jasmine and Serenity go
The day ended peacefully. The following day, Zachary ate breakfast and had Kevin drive him and his bodyguards to the airport. They were taking an airplane to Annenburg. Before boarding, Zachary texted Serenity to tell her he would soon arrive in Annenburg. Serenity would be returning from the Murphys’ place. On the other hand, Liberty brought Duncan to Queen Manor to visit Mr. Donald. They would soon become related to each other. Since Duncan was in the city, it was only proper that he visited the Queens. Meanwhile, in Wiltspoon, Jasmine had returned to the bookstore despite it being the winter holidays. She found it rather dull being at home all the time. At the bookstore, even when there were no customers, she could chat with the owners of the nearby stores. While some had closed their stores to celebrate the festive season, many chose to stay open. Jasmine was a month further into her pregnancy than Serenity. Her bump was huge. Luckily, it did not restrict her moveme
After half an hour, Liberty and Duncan finally arrived at the hotel. They bumped into Zachary and Kevin, who had also just returned.“You’re here, Duncan.”Zachary walked toward them. “Hi, Liberty.”Kevin walked over as well. “I told Zachary that you’d be here in no time. Being apart from your girlfriend isn’t easy, right?” Kevin teased.“You’ve experienced it yourself,” replied Duncan as he laughed. Kevin did not respond. He did miss Hayden a lot in the early stages of their relationship. “You two bought so many things.” Kevin saw the items in Duncan’s arms and on his thighs. They were all toys. “Sonny’s getting new toys again, eh?” “Yeah. We bought him some new clothes and toys. I’ve been giving him windmills all the time. It’s time to change it up.”Even Duncan found it slightly ridiculous. He thought Sonny loved windmills just because he saw Sonny playing with them once. That was why he kept getting more windmills for Sonny.Sonny used to be scared of him, but
She would wear light make-up for work to accentuate her beauty. Sometimes, she could not believe the glowing, confident woman looking back at her in the mirror was herself. She had changed a lot after her divorce two years ago. “I’m letting myself enjoy tonight because I’m with you. I won’t have late-night snacks anymore. Going on a diet is too difficult. I don’t want to do it again.”If she gained too much weight, it would be difficult to get fit again because she was happy and did not lack money. In addition, she had Duncan spoiling her. Since she no longer wanted to go on a weight loss journey, she had no choice but to control her appetite and exercise daily to maintain her figure. “I heard the others saying that you have many admirers here. Although they’ve not said anything, even a fool can tell that they’ve fallen for you just from their gazes.”The men who had a crush on Liberty knew she had a fiance who was the young master of the Lewises from Wiltspoon. While they
