Chapter 226

Penulis: Mr. Nobody
Mable was stunned.

Howard looked at her and continued, โ€œMable, since you and Master Blair are divorced, I think Iโ€™m qualified to pursue you.โ€

Mable felt a thump in her head. She looked at him in disbelief. โ€œYou want to pursue me?โ€

Howard nodded seriously. โ€œYouโ€™re a fair lady, and Iโ€™m a gentleman.โ€

Mable almost choked on her saliva.

โ€œDonโ€™t, Howardโ€”donโ€™t joke about this.โ€

โ€œIโ€™m not kidding, Mable. Iโ€™m serious.โ€

Howard looked at Mable. โ€œI was the one who told Grandpa Ralph I liked you and wanted to pursue you. So, he created an opportunity for us to be alone today.โ€

Mable was shocked.

โ€˜I see.โ€™

She did not think Howard was so proactive.

Nonetheless, she said without any hesitation, โ€œHoward, donโ€™t waste time on me. I donโ€™t have any feelings for you.โ€

Howard was not too surprised. โ€œFeelings can be slowly developed. I have plenty of time.โ€

Mable was somewhat helpless. โ€œDo I have to put it so bluntly? Well, Iโ€™ll be honest with you. I already have someone I like, and itโ€™

    Ashdale. After learning of Howardโ€™s thoughts about her, Mable was not in the mood to stroll around anymore. She casually gave him a reason and went home. As soon as she arrived home, she saw her grandpa reading documents in the living room. There were many work documents on the table. โ€œWhy are you back so soon?โ€ Seeing Mable had returned, Ralph took off his glasses and asked, โ€œHow did it go with Howard?โ€ โ€œNot good.โ€ Mable sat next to him and sighed. โ€œGrandpa, I donโ€™t like Howard. Donโ€™t set us up next time.โ€ Ralph sighed. โ€œFeelings can be developed slowly.โ€ โ€œThereโ€™s a prerequisite for that,โ€ Mable said. It was that she did not have someone she liked. Ralph looked at her and immediately understood. โ€œYou still canโ€™t let go of Blair.โ€ Mable looked seriously at him. โ€œGrandpa, Iโ€™ll obey you for everything else, but I want to make my own decisions on this matter.โ€ Blair was the only thing she was clinging on to. Ralph fell silent for a while and handed her the document

    Blair said after a pause, โ€œDonโ€™t tire yourself out too much. Rest early.โ€ โ€œOkay,โ€ Mable responded. Afterward, Blair hung up. Mable looked at her phone, dazed. Blair used to wait for her to hang up. Why did he hang up so quickly today? She was going to ask him about the project. Nevertheless, since her grandpa wanted her to take the project, she would have to go to Richworth. After some thought, she booked a flight to Richworth tomorrow afternoon. โ€ฆ Richworth. Blair hung up and called Solomon for a drink. By the time Solomon arrived, Blair had drunk quite a bit. โ€œThis isnโ€™t like you.โ€ Solomon sat on the sofa and said, โ€œAccording to your previous style, you should be on a plane to Ashdale right now.โ€ Blair looked up at him. โ€œI was preparing to go.โ€ โ€œThen why didnโ€™t you?โ€ Blair downed the whisky in his glass with a cold look in his eyes. It was because he was afraid he would not be able to control his emotions and hurt Mable. After coming back from Fasi

    Amos reacted quickly. Seeing as the woman was lunging toward Blair, he jumped forward to block her. Even so, the womanโ€™s drink spilled onto Blairโ€™s shirt. โ€œIโ€™m sorry for dirtying your shirt, sir.โ€ The woman held her glass delicately and winked at Blair as she spoke. Blair glanced coldly at her and ignored her. He walked straight out. The woman was not resigned to being ignored. She ran forward and said, โ€œHey, sir, why donโ€™t you take off your shirt? Iโ€™ll send it to the dry cleaners for you.โ€ As she spoke, she reached out to pull Blairโ€™s arm. Despite that, she was stopped by Amos before she could touch Blair. โ€œMiss, please respect yourself.โ€ The woman rushed up and stood in front of Blair to stop him. โ€œSirโ€”โ€ โ€œGet lost!โ€ Blair was cold. The woman was stunned by his gaze and got out of the way. In the end, she watched him leave in his car. At this time, the womanโ€™s good friend walked over and patted her shoulder. โ€œLesley, youโ€™re bold. Do you know who that man is?

    Mable called Howard without any hesitation. When the call went through, Howard said in a low voice, โ€œItโ€™s so late. Youโ€™re still awake?โ€ Mable asked coldly, โ€œHoward, why did you send me the photo?โ€ โ€œJust to tell you that Blair isnโ€™t good enough for you,โ€ Howard answered.Mable sneered. โ€œI dare you to say that to Blair in person!โ€ โ€˜Letโ€™s see if heโ€™ll kill you!โ€™ โ€œHoward, I always thought you were a decent person. I didnโ€™t think you were the same as your brother. Youโ€™re petty, using tricks behind peopleโ€™s backs!โ€ Howard frowned. โ€˜Did she think I got someone to follow Blair and take the photo?โ€™ โ€œI didnโ€™t find someone to take a photo. I saw someone sharing it, so I forwarded it to you because I wanted you to see what kind of person Blair is.โ€ After he finished, Mable told him off. โ€œI know what kind of person Blair is. I donโ€™t need you to remind me with a photo.โ€ โ€œDo you trust him that much?โ€ Mable said after a moment of silence, โ€œI trust myself!โ€ She did not dare claim

    Mable had just left the Jefferson Residence when she realized a small black car was following her. No matter how fast or slow she went, the car kept a consistent distance from her. Since they were on the main road, and she could not pull up, Mable ignored it. She wanted to see what the other party was trying to do. At last, she stopped in front of Jefferson Enterpriseโ€™s building. Mable turned to look and saw that the car had stopped as well. Even after a while, no one came down from the car. So, she decided to get out and walk over. She had just returned not long ago and had not offended anyone. Who was following her? Before she got close to the car, she saw a familiar person walking out from the passenger seat. โ€œAmos?โ€ โ€˜Why is he here? โ€˜If heโ€™s here, then Blairโ€ฆโ€™ โ€œMs. Jefferson.โ€ Amos nodded slightly at her and pulled open the door to the back seat. Mable widened her eyes at Blair, who was in the car. โ€œWhy are you here?โ€ โ€˜Werenโ€™t you in Richworth? Why are

    โ€œI saw it in a gossip group,โ€ Mable casually said. For the sake of her grandpa, she would not say it was from Howard. Blair looked seriously at her. โ€œMabes, hear me out. I donโ€™t know the woman. Last nightโ€”โ€ โ€œPfft!โ€ Mable was amused by how nervous he looked. โ€œI know. You donโ€™t have such bad taste, and Iโ€™m not stupid. The photo was purposefully taken at such a misleading angle. How could I not know?โ€ โ€œYou believe me?โ€ Blair stared blankly at her. Mable kept her phone and nodded. โ€œMm, at least in this matter.โ€ She had known him for more than two years and knew how he was. Blair embraced her again. His heart was filled, and he was satisfied like never before. Nothing was more comforting than being trusted by oneโ€™s beloved. โ€œThank you, Mabes.โ€ Blair suddenly blamed himself a little. Mable trusted him so much. Whereas, he was still holding a grudge against her for the photos Howard posted on his Instagram last night. Mable did not know what Blair was thinking. She pok

    Mable looked at Blair and responded, โ€œOh, Iโ€™m going on a business trip. Iโ€™ll go straight to the airport once Iโ€™ve finished with work.โ€ โ€œBusiness trip?โ€ Blairโ€™s first thought was that Mable was going abroad again. She had just come back a few days ago and was leaving again. โ€œWhere are you going? When are you coming back? Are you going alone, or will someone accompany you?โ€ โ€œIโ€™m not sure when Iโ€™ll be back. Itโ€™ll depend on the progress. Iโ€™m going aloneโ€”I asked Hugh to take care of my grandpa, or Iโ€™ll be worried. As for where Iโ€™m goingโ€ฆโ€ Mable smiled faintly at Blair and deliberately kept him in suspense. โ€œTake a guess.โ€ โ€œMonafett or Fasier?โ€ The Jeffersonsโ€™ business mainly involved clothing import and export trade. Apart from the domestic market, their other market was in those two countries. Mable shook her head. โ€œNope.โ€ Blair frowned. โ€œThenโ€ฆโ€ โ€˜If itโ€™s not Monafett or Fasier, could it be the more distant Yenea? โ€˜Itโ€™s possible that the Jeffersons are preparing to o

    Howardโ€™s eyes flickered. He paused before commenting, โ€œItโ€™s rare for a divorced couple to still have such a good relationship.โ€ Blair narrowed his eyes at him. โ€œHoward, even if Mabes and I arenโ€™t married now, sheโ€™s not someone you can covet!โ€ Howard straightened his body and smiled courteously. โ€œMaster Blair, honestly, I fell in love with Mable at first sight. Iโ€™m going to pursue her, and her grandpa is pleased with me, too.โ€ โ€œSo what?โ€ Blair might have believed his words if they met before he saw Mable earlier. Now, it had no effect on him. โ€œEven if Old Master Jefferson decides youโ€™re his granddaughter-in-law, you donโ€™t stand a chance as long as Mable doesnโ€™t like you!โ€ โ€œI know Mable doesnโ€™t like me. She rejected me when I confessed to her last night, but I donโ€™t plan to give up just like that.โ€ Howard paused for a while and looked at Blair with interest. He continued, โ€œAs far as I know, she hasnโ€™t accepted you either. That means weโ€™re the sameโ€”weโ€™re both her suitors. It

    โ€œArthur proposed to Tracey?!โ€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. โ€œYeah, Arthur proposed to her today. Trace called to say theyโ€™ll prepare for the wedding after they return from their trip.โ€โ€œThatโ€™s great!โ€Mable was sincerely happy for Tracey and Arthur.She asked Blair, โ€œDo they have any ideas for the wedding? We can help them prepare in advance.โ€Blair said, โ€œWe can call Trace and ask.โ€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, โ€œIโ€™ll call her tomorrow.โ€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,

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. โ€œItโ€™s been a long time since you called me that.โ€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. โ€œThatโ€™s what I used to call you, but you tricked me into calling you Ky.โ€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 Zoeโ€™s cheek and said, โ€œZoe, Iโ€™ve never told you this, but I fell in love with you the moment I saw you. It was love at first sight.โ€œI want you to stay by my side forever and let me stay by your side forever. Iโ€™ll never let you go again in this lifetime.โ€Zoeโ€™s eyes slowly reddened as she listened to Kyleโ€™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. โ€œZoe, I promise you.

    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. โ€œZoe, youโ€™re awake. How do you feel?โ€Zoe stared at the man in front of her and blinked, feeling shocked.When she did not answer, Kyle immediately became nervous. โ€œWhatโ€™s wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?โ€Zoe remained silent and continued to stare at him. Her eyes gradually turned red, and her nose tingled with a strong sense of sourness.Kyleโ€™s heart clenched at the sight. โ€œZoe, donโ€™t scare me like this. Zoe...โ€He was getting anxious and was just about to call the doctor when she suddenly grabbed his hand. โ€œI... Iโ€™m okay. I just had a nightmare. Iโ€™m a bit groggy after waking up.โ€Kyle hugged her, his warm hand gently patting her back. โ€œItโ€™s okay. Iโ€™ve been by your side all along.โ€Zoe buried her face in his shoulder, softly humming without saying anything.At that mom

    โ€œI see.โ€Outside the delivery room, Kyleโ€™s family and the others were still waiting anxiously.Close to midnight, the door finally opened, and the nurse carried the baby out.โ€œItโ€™s a boy. Both mother and son are safe.โ€Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.Before long, Zoe was pushed out. Monica checked on the baby before hurriedly walking to Zoeโ€™s side and taking her hand. โ€œZoe, you did so well.โ€โ€œIโ€™m okay, Mom.โ€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 latterโ€™s pale face, but she smiled and said, โ€œCongratulations, Zoe.โ€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, โ€œIsnโ€™t Zoeโ€™s due date still about ten days away? Why did it suddenly come early?โ€Monica said, โ€œWeโ€™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...โ€Seeing Mable stare anxiously at the delivery room, Blair held her hand and comforted her. โ€œDonโ€™t worry. Zoe has been healthy her whole pregnancy. There shouldnโ€™t be any problems.โ€Mable nodded. โ€œYeah, I hope both the mother and child are safe.โ€Soon, Solomon and Ines also arrived.Solomon greeted Kyleโ€™s parents and asked, โ€œHow

    Without saying anything, Solomon placed his behind Inesโ€™ 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 servantโ€™s voice came from outside. โ€œSir, dinner is ready.โ€Solomon hugged Ines and cleared his throat. โ€œGot it. Weโ€™ll be right there.โ€The servant acknowledged and left.Ines buried her head in Solomonโ€™s chest and took a deep breath before saying, โ€œLetโ€™s go. Donโ€™t want your parents to wait too long.โ€โ€œYeah.โ€Solomon stroked her head and looked at the drawing he had just completed. โ€œOnce itโ€™s dry, Iโ€™ll have it framed and hang it in the bedroom, okay?โ€Ines asked, โ€œIn this bedroom?โ€Solomon nodded and kissed her forehead. โ€œYeah, weโ€™ll probably come back to stay here often in the future.โ€Ines pursed her lips and smiled silently.โ€œLetโ€™s go have dinner.โ€ Solomon led her downstairs.After having dinner at the Rowland residence, Solom

    Solomon embraced Ines from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. โ€œI learned to draw when I was young and almost did fine arts for college.โ€โ€œWhy didnโ€™t you?โ€Winning first prize in a national art competition indicated a high level of drawing skill.Solomon said, โ€œPainting is just one of my many interests. I do it to pass the time when Iโ€™m bored. Iโ€™ve never thought of becoming an artist.โ€Ines nodded. โ€œI see.โ€Solomon suddenly perked up and opened a small cabinet beside the bookshelf, taking out a canvas and some paints. โ€œCome on, Iโ€™ll draw a portrait.โ€Ines was stunned. โ€œOf me?โ€โ€œYep.

Just seeing you will make them happy.โ€โ€œThat wonโ€™t do. I still need to buy something.โ€Although she knew that Solomonโ€™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. โ€œCan you tell me what your parents are like?โ€Solomon noticed her nervousness and squeezed her hand. โ€œDonโ€™t worry.

They wonโ€™t make things difficult for you.โ€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.
