Inside a child’s room of an ancient castle under Linders Range. Spike sat in front of his computer while holding a phone. He looked aggrieved. ‘I didn’t make a wrong call. ‘I mustered a lot of courage to call you.’ Spike played the recording of the phone call just now. “Hello? “Hello? “Hello? Who’s this?” “No one is talking. The person must’ve made a wrong call.” … Spike listened to it over and over again. He seemed to be full of anticipation. ‘Mommy’s voice is so lovely. ‘She must be especially pretty. ‘I want to see Mommy.’ As he thought about it, he remembered what Rory said yesterday. He could not see his mom, and his appearance would only make her sad. Spike held the phone and sniffled. ‘Mommy…’ He mouthed. … Richworth. After two days, Mable finally developed the antidote for Vortex using the A117 reagent. She tried her best not to use up the reagent. Fifteen milliliters were left in each of the three reagents of the A117 reagent. Ma
Mable was about to tell Rory off when she suddenly heard Blair groan in pain. “Rory, I have something to attend to. Let’s talk when I’m free.” She hung up after that. Mable ran back to the bedside and found Blair twitching. She quickly pressed down on his shoulders. “Blair, hold it in a little longer.” She took her acupuncture bag from the medical kit and prepared to treat him with needles. Her phone rang again. It was Rory. Mable was impatient and directly turned off her phone. … Inside an ancient castle by the ocean. Rory sat gloomily on the chair. He persistently called Mable over and over again. Until… “Sorry, the number you dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later…” ‘Did she turn off her phone?’ “Ha…” Rory narrowed his eyes and looked at the pile of information on the table. His face was grim. ‘Very well. How dare you turn off your phone? ‘Do you think I won’t be able to do anything about it?’ Rory squeezed his phone hard, enrag
Mable watched over Blair all night. His condition finally stabilized when morning came. She gave him a checkup and drew blood for someone to send for a lab test. Before long, the lab result was out. The level of toxins in his blood had reduced by 80%. Mable was relieved. She prepared to draw his blood for another lab test in a few hours. When Blair’s condition stabilized a bit more, she remembered the phone call from Rory last night. She turned on her phone and saw several missed calls from Rory. Mable felt a little anxious. Based on what Rory said yesterday, he must have found out about her and Blair. This would be difficult to deal with. Given how possessive Rory was, he would probably cause some kind of trouble. Mable wanted to call him back but dismissed the idea after some thought. It would be better to explain the matter to him in person. In any case, she was bringing back the rest of the A117 reagent. “Rory, I’ll be busy these next two days. I’ll go bac
Mable had been exhausted during this time. Now that Blair was no longer in critical condition, she could sleep in peace. She gave Tracey some instructions before going back to her room. After Mable and Tracey left, Blair sent Solomon a message. Solomon came to the Royal View Villa half an hour later. He looked at Blair’s blood test report and said with admiration, “Mable is really something. She cured you in just a few days.” Blair leaned against the head of the bed and looked leisurely at him with his hands crossed. “Did you bring what I asked?” Solomon handed him a small bottle and asked, “What do you need soy milk for?” Blair was allergic to soy milk and usually avoided it. “I need it.” Solomon frowned and looked at him in confusion. “You’re allergic to it. Why would you need it?” “You can go.” Then, Blair shook the small bottle in his hand. “Keep this a secret.” Solomon raised his eyebrow and smiled faintly at him. “Master Blair, what are you up to this time
“What’s the matter?” Mable glanced at Blair. He was looking at her strangely, as if he had something to say. “Nothing.” Blair ruffled her hair and said hoarsely, “Sorry for worrying you again.” “There’s no need to apologize. As long as you get better.” Blair only stared at her. Mable finished putting medicine on his arms and checked the gunshot wound on his right hand. Due to Vortex, his wound was constantly inflamed and could not fully heal. Now that the poison was removed, the inflammation quickly subsided. “Your gunshot wound is probably going to leave a scar.” Mable suddenly thought of the scar Blair got from blocking a bullet for her last time. It would be the second time he got injured for her. Blair chuckled. He sounded unconcerned as he responded, “Wouldn’t scars make a man look more handsome?” Mable said without thinking, “You’re handsome without scars!” He would have plenty of fans if he became a celebrity or idol. “Is that so?” Blair stared at Mab
Blair’s kiss was a little rough. It was as if he was punishing Mable. Mable pushed his chest to break free but failed. After Blair had enough of her lips, he gently kissed her neck. “Blair, you…” Blair said in his sexy and husky voice, “Mabes, your little mouth is better suited for kissing!” Afterward, he suddenly pinched her waist. “Ah!” Mable was sensitive when it came to her waist. When Blair pinched her, her legs could not help but go weak. Blair took the opportunity to kiss her lips again. Mable passively endured his passionate kiss. When she was finally released by his “great mercy”, she could barely catch her breath. Blair caressed her face and asked gently, “Mabes, you do like me a little, right?” Mable gritted her teeth hard. “No—” “Don’t lie!” Mable cursed internally and pushed Blair away to stand up. “Blair, you’re very handsome and excellent. However, it doesn’t mean I have to like you just because you have feelings for me. “Rest well. I’ll go
Blair did not expect Mable to suddenly come in. He wanted to withdraw his hand, but it was too late. The dagger stabbed into his wound that had not completely healed, and blood immediately flowed. Mable rushed in and snatched the dagger from Blair. “Blair, what are you doing?!” Blair’s eyes darkened. He covered his bleeding wound and said, “I’m fine.” Mable yelled in exasperation, “You’re fine?! Then why did you stab yourself? You’re fucking trying to harm yourself!” Blair said after a moment of silence, “My hand slipped. It wasn’t on purpose.” “Who are you trying to fool?!” Mable was pissed. ‘Your hand slipped, my ass! Even a three-year-old child can’t possibly injure themselves like this.’Blair looked down at his arm and did not say anything. Mable gritted her teeth and pressed the dagger against his chest. “If you want to die, stab yourself here. No one will stop you!” Blair raised his eyebrow and met Mable’s red eyes. “Mabes, I don’t want to die!” Mable was
Blair knew his approach was too cunning and extreme. However, he did not have a better solution for the time being. Mable no longer loved him like her own life, and he felt insecure because of that. He had also lost his confidence. Mable forced herself to hold back the tears in her eyes. “Blair, you wouldn’t have done such a stupid thing in the past!” No one would believe that the lofty and omnipotent Blair would harm himself to make a woman stay. However, he did it. If Mable had not been there to witness it earlier, he might have done something else after this. The thought of it scared her! Blair did not have much of an expression except for an unusually deep gaze. “That’s because I didn’t realize how much I loved you. I am so afraid of losing you.” Mable clenched her fists, wanting to punch someone. She should be overjoyed that he loved her so much. However, at the moment, she could not be happy at all. “Blair, is this your love?” Mable stared coldly at him. “
“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
