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.
The Fowler Residence. At this moment, Luke’s trusted confidant, Thomas, was being held at gunpoint by Solomon. The villa’s bodyguards gathered around when they saw this, but no one dared to make a move. After receiving Blair’s call, Solomon aimed at Thomas’ right wrist without hesitation. Swoosh!Swoosh!Swoosh!The silenced pistol shot three bullets in succession, hitting the same place. Thomas screamed miserably and fell to his knees, covering his bleeding wrist. Inside the house. Blair looked coldly at Luke. “I’m crippling one of Thomas’ hands today as a warning. I won’t let anyone who tries to harm Mable go, no matter who it is!” “Blair!” Luke became agitated. His good son had his trusted confidant shot for a woman. Would that not mean he would also be at odds with him in the future? He would not allow it! “Very well! You dare to threaten me now!” Amongst Luke’s three sons, Blair was the eldest and the most capable. Within five years of taking over
Mable immediately changed her clothes and rushed to the hospital. Once there, she first looked at the patient’s case for the past two days before heading to the ward with Ethan. Mable was about to examine the patient when a woman standing by the bed rushed up to stop her. “Ethan, is this the professor you were talking about?”Hannah pointed at Mable with distrust. Ethan nodded and introduced, “Yes, this is Professor Mable Jefferson. The main surgeon who operated on Jacob.” “Her? What a joke!” Hannah put her hands on her waist. She was angry and anxious. Doctors who became professors were at least 40 years old. Mable looked about the same age as her, so how good could her medical skills be? Hannah pointed at Mable, so angry that her face turned red. “Ethan, how could you let someone so young operate on Jacob?!” “Hannah, shut up!” The man on the bed suddenly spoke hoarsely. “Jacob, you’re awake.” Hannah quickly walked to the bedside with concern. As the surgery was
Mable got out of the car halfway and took a new Uber, changing her route. She initially wanted to lead the other party to a quiet place so that she could catch them and ask what they wanted. Nevertheless, the black SUV did not follow her for too long this time. Suddenly, they turned around and left. Mable secretly noted down the license plate, planning to look into it at night. Due to the little interlude, she arrived at the fondue restaurant a few minutes late. Tracey sent her a message saying she had arrived and was on the second floor by the window. However, when Mable went upstairs, Tracey was nowhere to be seen. Instead, Blair was sitting by the window. He wore a black suit and looked extremely reserved. He seemed out of place with the atmosphere in the fondue restaurant. “Wow, that guy is so handsome. He’s simply top-notch. I wonder if he has a girlfriend!” “I can’t. He’s too attractive. I want to get his number.” “What if he has a girlfriend? Ah, I shouldn’t ov
“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
