Mable did not eat much just now, so she vomited bile. She felt like she would eventually puke up her stomach.Blair saw Mable’s poor complexion. Her hand was also covered in cold sweat. “Mabes, are you okay? Trace, call the doctor.”“Okay.”“No... No need…”Mable wiped her mouth and rubbed her stomach. “I’m fine. My stomach is just a little upset. I just need to drink some water.”Blair helped Mable stand up. His eyes were full of concern. “Why would you get an upset stomach all of a sudden? Have you not been eating well?”“Uh, um…” Mable touched her nose, feeling a little guilty.At this time, Tracey said, “Mabes has been on a diet recently. She didn’t eat lunch today, so that’s probably why.”Mable was speechless and shot a look at Tracey.Blair’s face darkened instantly. “What?! How can you starve yourself?”Mable rinsed her mouth with water and explained, “I didn’t have lunch because I had no appetite.”Blair obviously did not believe her because he still looked so stern
After some satisfying sex, Kyle carried Zoe to the bathroom.They washed up, and he carried her back to the bedroom. He gently stroked her face and asked, “Did something happen?”Kyle felt like Zoe was acting weird today. In the past, she would not be so proactive about sex.Zoe sat up with her aching body. She still had a flushed face, and her waist-length hair draped over her shoulders. Her spaghetti-strap nightgown outlined her slim figure perfectly.“Kyle, I have something to ask you.”Kyle kissed her on the forehead and said, “It’s late. Let’s go to bed and talk tomorrow.”Zoe shook her head and looked at him firmly.Kyle chuckled. He leaned back on the headboard and pulled her into his arms. “If I had known you had so much energy left, I wouldn’t have gone easy on you just now.”Zoe pursed her lips and blushed.“What’s the matter?” Kyle asked.Zoe struggled to get out of his arms.She got out of bed, put on a cardigan, took out a report from the drawer, and handed it t
“Kyle, let me go!”Zoe’s tears flowed out uncontrollably.“Aw, you’re crying.”Kyle wiped away her tears with his fingers. His eyes were filled with derision.“Zoe, you love me, huh?”The feeling of humiliation spread rapidly. Zoe gritted her teeth and broke away from Kyle’s grip with all her strength. She kicked him with all her might.However, Kyle dodged and smirked. “That’s a powerful kick.”Zoe got up from the bed and glared at Kyle with resentment. “Get out! I don’t want to see you again!”Kyle folded his arms. His eyes were devoid of warmth. “Get out? Have you forgotten that this is my house?”Zoe nodded, wiped her tears away, picked up her phone, and prepared to leave.“Stop right there!”Kyle stared at her trembling shoulders and suppressed the irritation in his heart. He said coolly, “You can leave if you want, but don’t take my things with you.”Zoe turned back to look at him. “Your things?”Kyle raised his chin slightly and glanced at her clothes.Zoe understo
At the same time, Kyle sat on the chair on the bedroom balcony. He held a cigarette between his fingers and read the message from Blair with an indifferent expression.‘She drank?‘Ha! She gets drunk after one beer, yet she wants to drink away her sorrows. What an idiot!’Kyle took a puff of a cigarette and replied to Blair’s message.[Zoe and I broke up. You don’t need to tell me about her anymore.]After sending the message, Kyle threw his phone on the table and took a long drag of his cigarette.He felt extremely irritable.Kyle wanted to play with Zoe a bit longer, but she found out too soon.His revenge had not even begun yet. It was a pity that everything ended so soon.He sneered when he recalled the way Zoe looked at him when she left.......On the other hand, Zoe was so drunk that she lost control of her emotions. She was still crying. Mable wanted to knock her out and take her home, but Zoe suddenly vomited. Her face turned blue, and she had trouble breathing.Ma
Mable knew about her physical condition better than anyone. How could she be pregnant?Her delayed period was probably due to her irregular mealtimes. She also had not had enough rest, so it was probably an endocrine disorder.The nurse advised, “It’s better to get it checked, just in case.”Mable nodded but said nothing.The nurse changed Zoe’s IV drip and left.Mable sat by the bed, thinking of the nurse’s words. She placed her right hand on the pulse of her left wrist.After checking her own pulse for a while, she changed her expression. She stared at her own wrist in disbelief and changed hands.This pulse was fast and smooth.How was this possible?Mable could not believe it and took her pulse again.It was smooth, which was very similar to an early pregnancy pulse.Mable took a deep breath. Although her pulse was smooth, she could not be completely sure she was pregnant. It might be something else.She was determined to take a pregnancy test to be completely sure.Sh
Blair held Mable’s hand tightly and said, “You’d better not get involved in this matter.”When Mable heard this, she became infuriated and shook off his hand. “How could you help that bastard Kyle? Didn’t you see how badly he hurt Zoe? I…”Blair interrupted Mable helplessly. “This is between them. It’s best if they resolve it themselves.”After a pause, he added, “I know Kyle. He wouldn’t do such a thing. There must be some kind of misunderstanding. As outsiders, let’s not interfere in their relationship.”Mable glared at him angrily. “Outsider? Zoe isn’t an outsider!”Blair raised his eyebrows. “Are you and Zoe that close?”Yesterday, he wanted to ask why Mable was so nice to Zoe. They did not look like ordinary friends who had only known each other for a month or two.Mable pursed her lips. “I treat Zoe as a sister and won’t allow anyone to hurt her!”“Even so, this is their relationship…”Before Blair finished speaking, Mable’s phone rang.Mable took out her phone and saw
“Mabes.” Blair hugged Mable and ran his fingers through her hair, gently massaging her scalp.Mable felt that he had something to say. “What’s wrong?”Blair moved his lips. In the end, he swallowed the words he wanted to say and kissed her lips.“I love you.”His affectionate words lingered in Mable’s ears.Mable smiled and responded to his kiss. “I love you too.”Blair stared at Mable with a somewhat complicated expression and thought, ‘I’ll tell her about that matter after our wedding.’......On the other hand, Kyle worked overtime and returned to the villa after midnight.The living room was dark and quiet.Kyle turned on the light. When he saw the pink slippers placed in the hallway, he became irritated.He loosened his tie and went to the kitchen to pour a glass of ice water. Then, he drank it in one gulp.“Sir, you’re back.”Laura heard the commotion and walked out of her room.Kyle glanced at her, nodded slightly, and ordered, “Pack up everything Zoe left behind a
Zoe did not sleep last night. After the doctor completed his rounds in the morning, Zoe asked the doctor if she could leave the hospital for a few hours to do something urgent. She promised to be back in time for the IV drip.When Kyle saw Zoe, he could not help but think of the photo Blair had sent him the night before.Zoe looked at Kyle and said, “I left my ID in the villa.”She purposely went just before Kyle left for work so she could ask him a few questions in person.Kyle nodded, took out her ID card from his wallet, and handed it to her.He found it in the drawer last night. Kyle did not know why, but he put her ID card into his wallet without much thought.Kyle knew Zoe would come back to get such an important item.Zoe took the ID from him. Just as Kyle was about to get in the car, she grabbed the door handle.Kyle frowned, looking impatient as he said, “Let go!”Zoe only stared at him stubbornly. “Kyle, I have two more questions for you.”Kyle sneered. “What do you
“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
