Blair noticed the change and quickly released his grip, his face filled with concern. "Mabes, what's wrong?"Mable touched her head. The pain just now was as if someone had pricked her scalp with a silver needle, causing her to break into a cold sweat. However, it had come and gone so quickly. She could not feel anything now.She held her head, her face contorted in pain. "My head suddenly hurt.""Hurt?" Blair supported Mable's shoulder, checking the spot she held, but he found nothing unusual."Mabes..."Suddenly, Mable raised her head, looking at Blair with astonishment. "Blair, I felt pain just now!"Mable felt both surprised and relieved. Could it be that her damaged sensory nerves had a chance to recover?Blair finally realized that Mable's supposedly loss of sensation had suddenly appeared. "Mabes, has your sensation returned?"Mable extended her hand. "Pinch me."Blair hesitated, not wanting to cause her any more pain, and held her hand gently. "Why would I pinch you?
Blair looked at Mable and hesitated before speaking, "Can we not talk about it?"He did not want to deceive Mable.Mable lowered her gaze, understanding the implication of his words.He and Eugenie seemed to be discussing something she should not know about.The last time Eugenie came to the company to see him, he had also dismissed Mable. The two of them had talked in the office for a long time, but she did not know what they were discussing."If you don't want to talk about it, don't."Mable was not the type to push and pry. So, since Blair said it that way, she did not want to ask further.She would rather he did not say anything at all than make up an excuse.As she thought, Blair suddenly asked, "Why were you at the hotel? Were you there to meet someone?"Mable paused momentarily and replied, "I was there to meet Wilbur. I needed to discuss something with him.""Related to Zoe?"Mable nodded.Blair understood and did not ask anymore.After dropping Mable off at home,
Blair let out a cold, humorless laugh; his gaze was icy. Why was Connor so against him being with Mable? Was it because of his intense love for her daughter, or was there another reason?Blair stared at the files on his computer and had a long, deep thought."Solomon, I'll send you a file shortly. Follow its instructions."Solomon asked, "Are you sure you want to take action against the Mullers? What if Mable finds out?"Blair clenched his jaw tightly, not saying a word. He would only deal with it when Mable found out. He would find a way.Seeing Blair's silence, Solomon nodded. "Understood; I know what to do. Send me the file. I have it covered here in Italee.""Good."After ending the video call, Blair sent the file to Solomon. After finishing his work, Blair remembered today's incident when Mable suddenly had a headache in the car. He picked up his phone and called Eugenie."Hello," Eugenie's voice came through. "Mr. Fowler, what's up?"Blair asked, "I have something
Anthony took Eugenie to a famous restaurant in Richworth.From the moment Eugenie entered, her eyes kept wandering around. This place was truly luxurious. All the waitstaff were handsome and beautiful, and even the pillars in the hall were gilded."Anthony." Eugenie pulled Anthony's sleeve to confirm several times. "Are you sure you want to treat me here? To be clear, I don't have money. If you're thinking of not picking up the tab later…"Anthony looked at Eugenie indifferently, his eyes carrying a hint of disdain. "Don't worry, just enjoy your meal. I won't make you pay."He was a gold card member here. There was still plenty of money left on his prepaid membership card, enough for her to eat to her heart's content."Good."The waiter led Anthony and Eugenie to a private room and handed them the menu.Anthony directly handed the menu to Eugenie. "Order whatever you want. Don't hesitate."Eugenie opened the menu and looked at it; her mouth was watering."You said it so that I
Back at the hotel, Wilbur asked when Anthony entered the room, "Where did you go?"Anthony replied casually, "I sent you a message. Didn't you see it?"Wilbur searched for his phone for a while before finally finding it under a sofa cushion. After checking the message, he dispelled his doubts."If there’s nothing else, I'll return to my room."As Anthony turned to leave, sarcastic smile appeared on his face.…Italee, in a private villa.It was midnight and the moon shone brightly in the sky.Rory was wearing a coat, sitting on the living room sofa and holding his phone. His face was unusually dark.Adam walked in, looking puzzled. "Rory, you called me."Rory tossed his phone onto the table, and his face turned cold. "I just received an interesting call."Adam furrowed his brows, feeling a sense of foreboding. "What happened in the middle of the night to make you look like this?"Rory stood up and said, "Make arrangements. I'm going to Richworth."Adam asked, "Is something
Eugenie held Mable's hand with an innocent smile and spoke sincerely. "You must believe me." Worried that Mable would not trust her, Eugenie emphasized, "Mrs. Fowler, everything I'm saying is true."Mable smiled, "I know; Blair already explained it to me yesterday.""That's good." In relief, Eugenie patted her heart and said, "I've been worried all day, afraid that this would affect your relationship with Master Blair."Mable smiled and was about to say something when she saw a maid carrying Lemon down the stairs."Madam, you're back. Miss wants you to hold her," the maid said.Lemon looked at her mommy and reached out her arms from afar, wanting her mommy to pick her up."Little Lemon." Mable walked over and took Lemon from the maid.Concerned about Mable's injured hand, Aunt Grace said, "Madam, let me do it. Master Blair specifically instructed that you shouldn't hold Miss with your injured hand."Mable held Lemon on the couch and replied, "It's okay. I'll let her sit on my l
The next day, Blair skipped breakfast and went to the company. Not long after, Eugenie arrived. She brought medical equipment, took a blood sample from Blair, and left.As soon as Eugenie left, Kyle arrived. Lately, Kyle had been staying at home, caring for Zoe, and managing things on the island. He had not been to the company for quite some time.Kyle looked at Blair and asked, "I heard from Solomon that you're planning something against the Muller family?"Blair sat behind his desk, his eyes filled with determination. "After what they did to Mable, there's no way I'll let them off."Kyle cautioned him, "Be careful. The Muller family is now allied with Rory. It won't be easy to bring them down."Blair nodded. "I'm prepared."After a brief discussion, Blair asked, "Is everything arranged for the island? When are you moving?"Kyle replied, "Everything is set. We're moving tomorrow."Kyle was in the company to inform Blair while getting something from the office.Blair nodde
Today, Floyd and Monica went to a church to pray and would not be back until evening. So, Zoe spent the morning alone at home.When Kyle returned, Zoe waved at him from the balcony and headed downstairs. As soon as she descended the stairs, she saw Kyle entering the living room."Ky, you're back."Kyle hugged Zoe and handed her what he had just bought. "I got you your favorite pastry."“Ky, you're the best."Zoe took it and kissed Kyle on the lips, feeling delighted. Kyle sat down with Zoe on the sofa, touching her belly. "How are you feeling today?""Pretty good. I haven't felt nauseous all day."Zoe's morning sickness had improved lately, and she had regained her appetite."That's good."Kyle caressed Zoe's belly and spoke to their baby. "Baby, be good. Don't give trouble to your mom."While enjoying her pastry, Zoe said, "Mom told me it was even more difficult for her when she was pregnant with you. Especially in the later months, she had pelvic pain, leg cramps, and sleep
