After Blair washed the dishes, he also cut some fruits. In the living room, Mable and Tracey were engrossed in playing a game. When Mable was suddenly fed with a piece of watermelon, she ate it without thinking. It was cold and quenched her thirst. She turned to find Blair sitting beside her with a fork. He asked gently, “Is it good?” Mable shifted to the side and answered, “...Not bad.” Blair took another piece of watermelon with the fork and fed it to her. “Have another one.” Mable was not used to being treated so gently by him. “I’ll do it myself— Mm...” The cold and delicious watermelon was fed to her mouth. Tracey stopped playing the game when she saw them. She wailed, “Can you have some love and care for a single woman like me?” She was blinded by their public display of affection. Blair looked askance at her. She was an eyesore for him at the moment. “Are you not going home?” “Yes, I’m going back now.” Tracey put down the gamepad and prepared to leave.
Tracey walked to the door and suddenly remembered something. She stopped and turned around. “Is there something else?” Blair looked at her. Tracey said, “I had dinner with Solomon yesterday. He asked me to remind you that it’s time for a body checkup.” Blair was stunned. He had been so busy lately that he had forgotten about it. “You know your condition…” “What’s there to be afraid of? I’m only twenty-eight this year.” Blair put out the cigarette in his hand and sounded indifferent. Tracey frowned. “That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pay attention to it.” “Got it.” Blair lit another cigarette after Tracey left. After sitting in the study for a while, he went downstairs. Mable was already taking a walk in the garden. Mable asked him, “What did you and Tracey talk about earlier? She had a big smile on her face when she left.” Blair held her hand and answered after some thought, “Her crush is coming back.” “Crush?” Mable had known Tracey for so long but had never he
Amos looked at Mable from behind and was dumbfounded for a long time. “Master Blair, was that… Ms. Jefferson? When did she become so amazing? A medical professor at such a young age? Is she a genius?!” Blair smiled proudly. “As expected of my wife.” Amos was speechless.‘Master Blair, have you forgotten that you’re divorced?’ … In the dean’s office. Zachary looked at Blair’s various test reports with a frown on his face. “Master Blair, have you been working too much lately and are under too much pressure? Quite a few of the numbers on your reports are on the high side. How’s your sleep and appetite lately?” Blair pinched the spot between his eyebrows. “My appetite is fine, but I’ve been a little… insomniac.” He hardly had insomnia in the past. However, when Mable ran away to Ashdale, he did not sleep for three days just to look for her. Since then, he began to suffer from insomnia. Zachary asked again after some thought, “What about your mental state? Do you tend
This was an exclusive private room. The interior was lavish, and the floor-to-ceiling windows offered a panoramic view of Richworth at night. When Blair brought Mable inside, Solomon and Kyle were already there. Kyle looked at the two of them walking hand in hand. He put out his cigarette and said, “Hey.” They had all met before, so Mable was not reserved. She nodded and greeted them before taking a seat. Solomon whistled loudly and looked meaningfully at them. “Master Blair, when are you two remarrying?” Mable cast a cold look at him. “Who told you we’re going to remarry?!” Solomon twitched his mouth. ‘Weren’t you holding hands? Are you not back together?’ Blair glanced at him and held Mable’s hand again. “I’m still pursuing Mable.” He had not gotten her yet, so the remarriage would have to wait. Kyle looked playfully at him. “I met Mr. Morse two days ago. He seems to still have feelings for Ms. Jefferson.” ‘Mr. Morse?’ Mable asked after some thought, “Howard Mor
As soon as Tracey said that, Blair looked at Mable’s tummy. The first time they had sex was in the Jefferson Residence in Ashdale. It had been a month since. “What?” Mable looked at Tracey in a daze. Tracey was anxious. She lowered her voice and whispered to Mable, “Have you had your period this month?” Mable shook her head. “No way. I’m not pregnant!” She denied it firmly without thinking. Tracey asked, “Why is it impossible? You didn’t have your period this month, right?” Blair held Mable’s hand and said gently, “Mabes, let’s go to the hospital tomorrow for a checkup.” He had not taken preventive measures the two times they had sex. If she did not take birth control pills either, the chances of pregnancy were high. Mable looked helplessly at them. “I’m a doctor myself. Wouldn’t I know if I was pregnant?” Tracey retorted, “Doctors don’t treat themselves. It’s better to get it checked in the hospital.” Mable could only stay silent.… Initially, Solomon was go
The doctor on the side said without looking up, “She’s fine. You can leave after getting the medicine.” Blair was startled. He stared at Mable’s belly. “She’s fine? What about… the baby?” His question confused the doctor, who looked up at him in confusion. “Baby? What baby?” Mable quickly tugged at his sleeve. “Blair, I’m not pregnant!” Blair was stunned. ‘Not pregnant? ‘Then the blood just now…?’ Mable flushed red from embarrassment. “It was because… my period came.” Blair was speechless.Mable had bad cramps whenever she had her period. When it was serious, she would have to stay in bed for two days. “You’re having period cramps from not having enough nourishing food, so you have to pay more attention to it. Also, I checked when you said your stomach feels uncomfortable. You have chronic gastroenteritis, so avoid fishy, spicy, and stimulating food for now. Eat nothing raw too.” Blair finally realized that he misunderstood. He draped his jacket over Mable and carr
It was a dark and windy night. A skillful woman climbed over the guardrail and sneaked into the villa quietly. After ambushing for two days outside, she had long known the security of the villa like the back of her hand. Coupled with Mable’s help, tonight was the best time to strike. At this hour, the servants in the villa were all asleep, and the main building was silent. The woman in black entered the living room through the floor-to-ceiling window and slowly walked up the stairs. Ten minutes later. Beep!A piercing alarm sounded from the study on the second floor. Kyle snapped his eyes open and rolled out of bed. His vision was blurry, and he almost fell. He was dizzy. “Guards!” Realizing that something was wrong, Kyle shouted for someone while forcefully walking out of the bedroom. A black figure flashed in front of him. “Stand right there!” The woman scoffed and jumped down from the second floor through the window. Kyle rushed forward but only mana
Blair held the kitchen knife and cut the washed ingredients. He was serious and careful. Once he had chopped everything up, he boiled some water and put them in. He remembered Tracey said that Mable had a sweet tooth, so he also prepared some sweet treats. Mable hugged her pillow and nestled on the sofa to watch a movie. However, her mind was not there. She stared blankly at Blair, who was busy in the kitchen. If anyone had told her in the past that Blair would help her wash her clothes stained with period blood and make soup for her, she would have thought that person was dreaming. Nonetheless, since last night, Blair had helped her with these things. When he returned to the bedroom in the middle of the night, he realized her feet were cold. So, he sat at the end of the bed and held her feet until they had warmed up before he laid down. Mable did not dare to imagine such a gentle and caring Blair before this. Blair seemed to have sensed her gaze and turned around.
