Jeremiah threw the phone on the table in anger, his expression dark.What exactly were they planning?...Meanwhile, after ending the call with Jeremiah, Rory chuckled softly. It seemed like he made the right move.For Lemon, Mable would do as he suggested.“The rest is up to you, Mable.”Just as he was thinking, his phone rang again.He looked at it and straightened up. “Hello, Mr. Hammond.”Wilbur’s voice sounded over the phone. “I’ve read the case you sent. Arrange some time for me to meet the patient.”“Okay. She’s not in Italee now. I’ll contact you again when she arrives.”Then, Rory asked, “Are you confident that you can cure her?”“About fifty to sixty percent.”Rory nodded. “Okay.”A success rate of fifty to sixty percent was already quite high.After hanging up the phone, he sent a message to Adam urging him to bring Zoe back as soon as possible....At the hotel, as soon as Blair arrived, Tracey surrounded him anxiously. “Blair, Blair, did Mabes talk about th
Two days later, Blair went to the Muller Mansion. He had given Mable two days to think, and now it was time for her to respond. Mable had anticipated Blair's visit and had informed the security guards at the entrance in advance. There was no obstruction this time, and the servant led Blair into the house.As he entered the living room, he saw Lemon on the carpet playing with toys. Mable was sitting on the nearby sofa, sketching something in her sketchbook."Miss Muller, Mr. Fowler is here," one of the servants informed.Mable raised her head and looked at Blair. It was a sunny day. The sunlight streamed through the windows, casting a halo on Blair's shoulders.Mable gazed at Blair, momentarily lost in thought."Mabes," Blair spoke her name, bringing her back to reality. She nodded and gestured to the sofa beside her. "You're here. Please have a seat."Blair did not sit immediately. Instead, he walked over to Lemon. "Little Lemon."Little Lemon looked up, her large black pe
Blair looked at Mable, hesitant to speak.Mable sensed he had something on his mind and asked, "What do you want to say?""Mabes, if Jeremiah does not allow Little Lemon and you return to Dorland, would you change your mind?" Blair inquired.Mable chuckled softly. "So, you're worried I might change my mind?"Before Blair could respond, Mable continued, "Don't worry. I won't change my mind."Blair remained silent, his gaze shifting to Lemon in his arms with a smile on his face.His attention fell on the small jade pendant hanging around Lemon's neck."Isn’t this…" Blair furrowed his brows, grasped the Jarius jade, and looked at Mable.Mable was surprised. "Do you know it?"Blair nodded. "This Jarius pendant is the token of the second in command of Secret. Didn't you return it to Rory when you left the Secret?"Mable was surprised that Blair knew about her connection with Secret. It seemed she had trusted him to reveal her identity.Blair frowned and asked, "Mabes, have you re
Jeremiah gazed deeply at Mable, and his golden pupils faintly emitted a mysterious glow.Jeremiah firmly placed both hands on Mable's shoulders and spoke solemnly, "Astrid, promise me you will never fall for Blair."Mable was taken aback. It was utterly unexpected that he would say this to her. Fall for Blair? No way…Mable felt a moment of confusion.Jeremiah frowned, saying, "Astrid, look at me and promise me!"Mable snapped out of her daze, staring into his eyes and nodding slowly. "I promise I won't have any feelings for Blair."Jeremiah looked at her with complex emotions, relieved in his heart. ‘Astrid, I hope everything goes well for you. I will protect you no matter what.’…In Richworth, Dorland.Since Adam came to the villa to search for Zoe a few days ago, Kyle brought Zoe back to the Goodman Residence.There were two reasons Kyle brought Zoe to the Goodman Mansion. First, Kyle’s parents missed them and kept inviting them to stay for a while. Moreover, with B
After hanging up the phone, Kyle smiled at Zoe. "Zoe, guess who's coming back?"Zoe looked at him, puzzled. "Who?"When Kyle did not answer immediately, Zoe blinked, suddenly realizing something. "Is it Mabes?""Yes, and her daughter, Little Lemon."…At the airport.Since learning that his dad was bringing his mom and little sister back, Spike was so excited that he could not sleep all night. The following day, he and Nicki went to the airport to wait for them.When the plane arrived at Richworth International Airport, it was already noon.Spike saw Blair holding his little sister and Mable standing beside him from a distance."Mom, Dad!" Spike jumped and waved. Blair had not lied to him; he brought his mom and little sister home.Their family could finally reunite."Uncle Blair, Aunt Mable." The two children ran over, their faces filled with excitement they could not contain."Spike." Mable bent down to hug Spike, her face full of tenderness."Mom, I missed you so much
Mable stared at the photo, feeling an inexplicable tightness in her chest. Why did they look so happy in the photo? Blair radiated such a sense of happiness.Mable furrowed her brow, feeling a strange mix of familiarity. She stood up and put the photo back in the drawer out of her sight."Mabes," Blair's voice came from behind.Mable turned to see Blair standing at the door. He walked in and glanced at the table, his eyes subtly flickering before he spoke, "Your room is next door, and I've put your things in there. Let me show you.""Sure. Thank you." Mable nodded and followed Blair to the next door.Mable’s promises to Blair to return to Richworth were not without conditions. First and foremost, they were to sleep in separate rooms, which Blair agreed to.Mable stayed in the master bedroom while Blair stayed in the room opposite.As Mable walked in, she saw the room's design, which felt somewhat familiar. “Did I stay here before?” She asked.“Yes.” Blair nodded. “Everything
"It's almost 8 a.m.," Spike said.Just then, Lemon, who was by Mable's side, woke up and started crying.Spike was taken aback. "Mommy, what's wrong with Little Lemon?""Little Lemon, don't cry; Mommy will hold you." Mable picked up Lemon and gently patted her back. "Maybe your little sister is hungry. Let me prepare her formula."Before she could finish her sentence, Blair entered the room holding a baby bottle."Let me take her," he said.He took Little Lemon from Mable and calmed her down with the bottle."Did you prepare the formula?" Mable asked, looking at Blair, who was feeding Lemon.Blair looked at Mable and nodded. "Yes, I learned how to do it. Don't worry, go wash your face and have breakfast downstairs."He had timed it well and waited, knowing Lemon would wake up soon. Upon hearing her cry, he came in to take care of her.Spike sat next to his dad, watching his little sister enjoy her bottle with a look of deep affection."Little Lemon is so well-behaved. She st
Zoe tightly embraced Mable, her cheeks turning red from excitement. "Mabes, I'm so happy to see you again. Ky was right; your kind nature will protect you, and nothing bad will happen.""Zoe," Mable replied softly, patting her back. "I'm also thrilled to see you again.” It had been a while since Mable had encountered such a joyful moment.Kyle looked at Mable and then at Blair. "This time, you won't leave again, will you?"Blair glanced at Mable but remained silent.Mable sat down on the couch, holding Zoe's hand. She asked, "Zoe, I heard from Blair that you suffered a serious injury and lost your memory?"Zoe ran her fingers through her hair, looking innocent. "Yes, I had a severe injury, and I can't remember anything. Thankfully, I have Ky."Mable glanced at Kyle, her brow slightly furrowed.Secret and X were archenemies. How could Kyle be with Zoe?Mable felt something was wrong, but she could not figure out the whole story. Besides, for some reason, she found Kyle parti
“Arthur proposed to Tracey?!”In the afternoon, Tracey posted several photos of her and Arthur in a hot air balloon. In one of the photos, she held a bouquet with a dazzling ring on her ring finger.[Yes, I do.]That was the caption.Blair hugged Mable and nodded with a smile. “Yeah, Arthur proposed to her today. Trace called to say they’ll prepare for the wedding after they return from their trip.”“That’s great!”Mable was sincerely happy for Tracey and Arthur.She asked Blair, “Do they have any ideas for the wedding? We can help them prepare in advance.”Blair said, “We can call Trace and ask.”Mable looked at the time. It was midnight in Monafett, and she did not want to disturb them by calling at this hour. She smiled and said, “I’ll call her tomorrow.”Getting two good news in a row today made Mable feel particularly good. After dinner, she could not help but want to drink some wine to celebrate.Blair had not drunk for a long time, either. Seeing her in high spirits,
Kyle stared into Zoe’s eyes. He had indeed noticed it, but he was not sure yet.However, when Zoe called him by his full name, he was completely certain.Zoe had regained her memories.From the moment she woke up, her emotions had been off. Even Monica noticed something wrong with her, so how could he not have seen it?Kyle looked at Zoe, reaching out to brush the hair by her temples. “It’s been a long time since you called me that.”Zoe had not called him since waking up, but as soon as she did, she called him Kyle instead of Ky. He knew then she must have remembered everything.Although Kyle knew that this day would come sooner or later, he did not expect her to regain her memories at this moment.He was completely unprepared and caught off guard.Zoe lowered her head. “That’s what I used to call you, but you tricked me into calling you Ky.”She remembered everything as soon as she woke up.The events that happened when she had forgotten felt like a dream, too surreal to be
Kyle named the baby Six not only because he was born at 6 pounds and 6 ounces but also because June 6th was the day they first met.He would always remember the scene when he first saw Zoe, even though their relationship started with deception, manipulation, and even revenge.Kyle caressed Zoe’s cheek and said, “Zoe, I’ve never told you this, but I fell in love with you the moment I saw you. It was love at first sight.“I want you to stay by my side forever and let me stay by your side forever. I’ll never let you go again in this lifetime.”Zoe’s eyes slowly reddened as she listened to Kyle’s heartfelt words.Indeed, she never knew he fell in love with her at first sight...They both did.Kyle gently wiped away her tears. “Zoe, I promise you. We’ll only part in death, never in life.”Zoe choked and nodded, burying her face in his chest as she cried.In her arms, Six seemed to sense his mother’s emotions and moved restlessly.Zoe quickly comforted him.“Let me.” Kyle took the
At the hospital. When Zoe woke up again, it was already the next morning.As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Kyle sitting by her bedside.Kyle noticed her waking up and quickly held her hand. “Zoe, you’re awake. How do you feel?”Zoe stared at the man in front of her and blinked, feeling shocked.When she did not answer, Kyle immediately became nervous. “What’s wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”Zoe remained silent and continued to stare at him. Her eyes gradually turned red, and her nose tingled with a strong sense of sourness.Kyle’s heart clenched at the sight. “Zoe, don’t scare me like this. Zoe...”He was getting anxious and was just about to call the doctor when she suddenly grabbed his hand. “I... I’m okay. I just had a nightmare. I’m a bit groggy after waking up.”Kyle hugged her, his warm hand gently patting her back. “It’s okay. I’ve been by your side all along.”Zoe buried her face in his shoulder, softly humming without saying anything.At that mom
“I see.”Outside the delivery room, Kyle’s family and the others were still waiting anxiously.Close to midnight, the door finally opened, and the nurse carried the baby out.“It’s a boy. Both mother and son are safe.”Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.Before long, Zoe was pushed out. Monica checked on the baby before hurriedly walking to Zoe’s side and taking her hand. “Zoe, you did so well.”“I’m okay, Mom.”Zoe was still very weak after just giving birth, and her voice was weak. Monica immediately told her husband to call the servants to brew a tonic and sent it over.Mable walked to Zoe and felt her heart ache when she saw the latter’s pale face, but she smiled and said, “Congratulations, Zoe.”Zoe smiled, no longer having the strength to speak.Blair and Solomon congratulated Kyle.Kyle nodded, not paying attention to them, and took Zoe back to the ward with the nurse.Zoe was a first-time mother, so she was extremely exhausted after giving birth an
As soon as Mable learned that Zoe was about to go into labor, she rushed to the hospital immediately. It was late at night, and Blair was worried, so he accompanied her.When the two arrived at the hospital, Zoe had already been taken into the delivery room. Kyle followed her in, but his parents waited anxiously outside.Mable looked at Monica and Floyd and asked, “Isn’t Zoe’s due date still about ten days away? Why did it suddenly come early?”Monica said, “We’re not sure, either. After dinner tonight, Zoe said her stomach was hurting. Kyle helped her upstairs to rest, but not long after, he called for someone to prepare the car to go to the hospital...”Seeing Mable stare anxiously at the delivery room, Blair held her hand and comforted her. “Don’t worry. Zoe has been healthy her whole pregnancy. There shouldn’t be any problems.”Mable nodded. “Yeah, I hope both the mother and child are safe.”Soon, Solomon and Ines also arrived.Solomon greeted Kyle’s parents and asked, “How
Without saying anything, Solomon placed his behind Ines’ head and kissed her.Ines wrapped her arms around his waist...Knock, knock!The untimely sound of knocking interrupted them.Ines jumped like a startled deer, eyes wide and cheeks red.The servant’s voice came from outside. “Sir, dinner is ready.”Solomon hugged Ines and cleared his throat. “Got it. We’ll be right there.”The servant acknowledged and left.Ines buried her head in Solomon’s chest and took a deep breath before saying, “Let’s go. Don’t want your parents to wait too long.”“Yeah.”Solomon stroked her head and looked at the drawing he had just completed. “Once it’s dry, I’ll have it framed and hang it in the bedroom, okay?”Ines asked, “In this bedroom?”Solomon nodded and kissed her forehead. “Yeah, we’ll probably come back to stay here often in the future.”Ines pursed her lips and smiled silently.“Let’s go have dinner.” Solomon led her downstairs.After having dinner at the Rowland residence, Solom
Solomon embraced Ines from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. “I learned to draw when I was young and almost did fine arts for college.”“Why didn’t you?”Winning first prize in a national art competition indicated a high level of drawing skill.Solomon said, “Painting is just one of my many interests. I do it to pass the time when I’m bored. I’ve never thought of becoming an artist.”Ines nodded. “I see.”Solomon suddenly perked up and opened a small cabinet beside the bookshelf, taking out a canvas and some paints. “Come on, I’ll draw a portrait.”Ines was stunned. “Of me?”“Yep. Give me a moment.”Solomon led Ines to sit on the sofa, then went out to find a servant to bring him the easel.Although he had not painted in many years, he still had all the tools he used before.Before long, the servant helped him bring in the easel and other tools.After looking at the layout of the bedroom, Solomon asked Ines to sit in the soft chair by the window, where the lighting w
Ines blinked. “I was just thinking about what to bring to your house tomorrow. I can’t go empty-handed...”Solomon laughed at her words. “You don’t need to bring anything. Just seeing you will make them happy.”“That won’t do. I still need to buy something.”Although she knew that Solomon’s parents did not lack anything, she could not just go without a gift. It was still necessary to have proper etiquette.Ines was a little nervous at the thought of visiting his parents tomorrow. “Can you tell me what your parents are like?”Solomon noticed her nervousness and squeezed her hand. “Don’t worry. My mom and dad are very nice. They won’t make things difficult for you.”Ines looked at him and nodded.With him by her side, she was not that worried.She heard Solomon say that his father liked tea, so she bought a gift box from the supermarket. In addition, she also brought some nutritional supplements to bring along when they go to Solomon’s house tomorrow.After buying everything, th
