The garden at Mair Manor was even more extensive than the entire Royal View Villa.Mable walked through the garden. Apart from the rose garden, there was also a greenhouse where strawberries were grown. When she asked, one of the servants told her, "Every spring, when the strawberries ripen, Master Blair would bring the young master and Miss Nicki to pick strawberries."Mable entered the strawberry greenhouse, but there were not many strawberries left at this time of year. She asked the servant, "Does Blair bring them here for swimming in the summer?"The servant smiled and nodded. "Yes, Last summer, Master Blair taught the young master to swim, but Miss Nicki is afraid of the water and hasn't learned to swim yet."Then, Mable left the strawberry greenhouse and let the servant guide her through the garden."Do you also have fruit trees here?""Madam, don't you remember? You chose these apple, lychee, cherry, and pomegranate trees." The servant pointed in the distance. "You also p
However, now, Mable wanted to remember the past.The video she saw last night had shaken her.Blair looked at Mable and said, "Since you're here, why don't we have lunch?""Okay."Blair touched Mable's face and said, "You didn't sleep well last night. Your concealer can't hide those dark circles. Rest for a while, and I'll call you when it's time for lunch.""Can I sleep here?" Mable pointed to the bed in the bedroom.Blair led Mable to the bedside. "Of course, this is our room."Mable had hardly slept at all last night. Upon hearing Blair's words, she took off her shoes and lay down on the bed to rest.During her nap, Mable slept soundly.It was already one o’clock in the afternoon when she woke up again.Blair was sitting on the bedroom sofa with his laptop. The sunlight that streamed in bathed him in a warm glow, making him look enchanting."Awake?" Seeing Mable awake, Blair closed his laptop.He did not want to disturb her since she was sleeping so soundly.Blair hande
Gossip about Master Blair?The secretary widened her eyes. If Master Blair found out she was discussing gossip about Master Blair with Madam, she would indeed get fired."How long have you been with the company?" Mable asked the secretary.The secretary replied, "It's my fifth year this year."Mable nodded and looked at the secretary, asking, "Do you know what Master Blair likes to do in the company?"The secretary thought for a moment and said, "Well. Master Blair usually handles documents, holds meetings, or meets with clients in the company. There's nothing particularly unusual.""Meeting with clients, both men and women?""Yes, both men and women."Hearing her question, the secretary looked at Mable and added, "Madam, Master Blair is the most disciplined and loyal man I've ever seen. He never messes around in the company. One time, the daughter of a cooperating company's CEO liked Master Blair and tried to get close to him under the pretext of discussing work. Master Blair
The secretary thought profoundly and said, "As far as I know, Master Blair's dark history doesn’t exist."Just as he was speaking, Mable's phone rang. She glanced at it and saw that it was a video call from Tracey.Mable told the secretary, "Alright, that’s it for now. You can go about your business.""Alright, Madam," the secretary replied, then left.Mable answered Tracey's video call, saying, "Hi, Tracey."Tracey's video showed her radiant smile. "Mabes, what are you up to?""I'm at your brother's company."Mable noticed the snowy background behind Tracey and asked, "Where are you and Arthur right now?"Blair had given Arthur some time off, so they had gone on a trip together.Pointing to the distant snow-capped mountains, Tracey said, "We're at the foot of Mount Fuji, Mabes! Look, that's Mount Fuji!""It looks beautiful. Have you been having a good time these past few days?"Tracey replied, "It's been pretty good. We'll be back next week, and we've got gifts for all of y
Eugenie arrived at the company in less than twenty minutes.Mable told the secretary to let her in.Eugenie walked into the office, waved at Mable, and smiled. “Is Blair still in the meeting?”“Yeah. Have a seat.” Mable gestured and asked, “What would you like to drink?”“Water, please.”The secretary nodded and soon brought in a glass of water.Mable looked at Eugenie curiously. “Do you need something with Blair? You can tell me if you don’t mind.”Eugenie shook her head, maintaining her harmless smile. “It’s nothing major. I just wanted to see him.”Mable was stunned. She wanted to see him...Did she like Blair?Perhaps noticing Mable’s emotions, Eugenie finally realized that her words could be easily misunderstood, and she hurriedly explained, “Don’t get the wrong idea, Ms. Jefferson. That’s not what I meant. I came to see Blair today because...”She hesitated, feeling a bit awkward, not knowing how to phrase her words. “I haven’t seen him in many years. Since I’m in Rich
‘There’s a calamity in your fate. You won’t be able to stay together forever...’Blair’s expression changed slightly. Whether it was a coincidence or a premonition, what she said was indeed accurate.The incident two years ago could be considered a major calamity in their fate.Blair remembered what she said about them being fated to be apart and subconsciously clenched his fists.“Mr. Fowler, I’d like to speak with you alone.”Mable looked at Blair and then at Eugenie, feeling that something was off between them.Blair looked at Mable. “Mabes...”Before she could finish, Mable very ‘sensibly’ said, “Go ahead. I’ll wait for you outside.”Then, she picked up her bag and went out.Amos also left.Only Blair and Eugenie were left in the office.“What do you want to talk about?”Blair stared at Eugenie. She looked like a young lady in her twenties, but she was very calm and possessed a depth in her eyes that did not match her age. She remained composed even under his pressure.
Blair stared solemnly at Eugenie and did not respond.He did not need to prove his feelings for Mable to an outsider.Seeing Blair’s silence, Eugenie glanced at his white hair and seemed to understand something. “It seems I asked something unnecessary.”His white hair was the best proof.Once the male base inside his body suffered a backlash, it would cause one’s hair to turn white...That was the best proof of his feelings for Mable.“Can you really cure Mable’s Necro Poison?”Eugenie said, “I’m not a hundred percent sure, but I can try. However, as I’ve said, there’s no one else who can cure the poison.”That was because in this world, no one understood the toxicity of the Necro Poison better than her.Blair clenched his jaw. “Why should I believe you?”“Because I’m Eugenie Landon!”Eugenie said confidently, “You don’t have a better choice, Mr. Fowler. Besides, trusting me won’t cost you anything, right?”Blair pondered for a moment and asked, “Why are you helping me? Do
Blair kissed Mable’s lips. “Let me pack up, and we’ll go home together.”“Okay.”Nicki and Spike would be finishing school around this time, so Mable and Blair went to pick them up on their way home.Along the way, Mable thought about asking Blair what Eugenie wanted to discuss with him, but every time she was about to ask, she swallowed her words.Would she seem petty if she kept asking?Just as she was thinking, Blair held her hand. “Mabes, why aren’t you asking me what Eugenie and I talked about in the office?”Mable looked at him. “She said she wanted to talk to you alone, which means it’s something I’m not supposed to know. Why should I ask?”Blair felt slightly disappointed at her words.“I thought that you’d get jealous.”Mable was silent.Blair held her hand. “Eugenie made a deal with me. I’ll tell you what it’s about when the time is right. In any case, don’t overthink it. There’s nothing between me and her.”Mable turned her gaze out the window. “I’m not overthinki
“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
