Blair looked at Mable and suddenly asked, “Mabes, do you remember the mysterious man who bought your portrait at the Salomon Auction?”“Yeah.” Mable nodded, not understanding why Blair suddenly brought up this matter.The incident left a deep impression on Mable. “I remember the portrait was priced at three million, but the other party bid up to thirteen million in the end.”Blair said, “At that time, I had someone investigate the person’s identity. However, they couldn’t find anything. Even the boss of Salomon didn’t know who they were.”Mable was somewhat surprised upon hearing this. “I also asked Rahman to investigate, but he couldn’t find anything either.”She paused and then asked, “Do you suspect that the person secretly investigating me is the mysterious person who bought my portrait?”“It’s not impossible. After all, their identities are very mysterious, and... they’re interested in you.”Mable looked at Blair’s jealous look and snickered.“Is Master Blair feeling threa
Mable looked at the smile on Zoe’s face and suddenly asked, “Zoe, are you happy?”Zoe smiled innocently and nodded. “Yep. I’m really happy. I have you and Ky...”Mable nodded with a smile. “That’s good.”Kyle came out of the bathroom and saw Zoe lying on the bed, talking on her phone. When he approached, he saw it was a video call with Mable.Mabe saw Kyle in the video and gave him a warning look. Then, she smiled at Zoe and said, “Have fun and stay safe. Bye.”“Bye, Mabes.”After hanging up the phone, Zoe hugged Kyle and said with excitement, “Ky, today is my twenty-fourth birthday!”Kyle raised his brows and guessed that Mable called to wish Zoe a happy birthday. He had wanted to give her a surprise, but it was unexpectedly ruined by Mable.He rubbed her face and said, “Yes, you turn twenty-four today.”Zoe burrowed into Kyle’s embrace and smelled the same fragrance of the shower gel she used on him, feeling at ease.“Does that mean I get to eat cake today?”“Of course.”
After a while, Zoe was let go and panted heavily, saying, “Ky, thank you for the surprise.”“Zoe...”Kyle looked at her with bright eyes. If not for the fact that they had not had dinner yet, he would have carried her upstairs.“Let’s eat.” He led her to the dining table.During the meal, Zoe took a few photos and sent them to Mable, sharing the joy of her birthday.After eating, Kyle brought her back to the bedroom.Unlike the city, where neon lights blinked everywhere at night, the night sky there was as bright as day.That was why it was also a good place to stargaze.The roof was made of transparent glass, allowing Zoe to see the stars while lying on the bed.Kyle lay beside her, letting her rest on his arm.Zoe looked at the stars in the night sky and said, “Ky, can we come here on my birthday every year? Let’s come here on your birthday, too... I’ll also prepare a surprise for you.”Kyle hugged her. “Sure.”Zoe suddenly remembered that she did not know his birthday, s
The private investigator Jane hired found out everything about Zoe in less than a week.After Jane finished reading the information, she immediately revealed a pleased look. “I wondered who Kyle’s girlfriend was, but it turns out she has no family background, job, or ambition. Hehe. She suffered a severe injury three months ago, and now, her mental age is only six or seven years old. She’s just a fool...”Melanie looked at the information and also laughed. “Mom, the Goodman family will never accept Kyle marrying such a woman.”“Of course not. How could the Goodmans let a fool become their madam?”Melanie mumbled, “It’s no wonder Kyle didn’t tell anyone even though they’ve moved in together. He knows his parents won’t agree to them being together.”Jane patted her daughter’s hand and said, “Since Kyle’s parents don’t know about this, let’s find an opportunity to reveal it to them. We won’t have to get involved in what comes after. Someone will naturally help us solve this problem.”
“Ridiculous! How can the young master of the Goodmans be with a little fool? We’ll be made a laughingstock if word gets out!”Even if Zoe was not very smart, she could sense that Monica did not like her upon hearing those words. She looked at Monica unhappily and said, “Ky said that I’m not a fool! I’ll get better!”Monica raised her brows and stared at Zoe. “Are you trying to lecture me?”Zoe pursed her lips and remained silent.“Madam, please calm down. Ms. White wasn’t like this before. She’s...”Monica interrupted Aunt Laura sternly. “Why did you allow Kyle to be so willful? You didn’t tell me about such a big matter earlier. Don’t you know that Kyle has an engagement with Melanie from the Xephers?”Aunt Laura lowered her head, not daring to speak.“Engagement?”Zoe looked at Monica in confusion.What was an engagement?Monica looked at Zoe. “Ms. White, I sympathize with your situation. You suffered a serious injury and lost your memory and intelligence at such a young ag
Monica nodded and glanced at Zoe again before leaving.After leaving the villa, she got into the car and called Kyle’s assistant to inform Kyle that she was not feeling well and wanted him to come home after finishing his work.No matter what, she planned to keep Kyle in the old residence for the night....After Monica left, Zoe sat helplessly on the couch. “I won’t leave. I’ll wait for Ky to come back...”Aunt Laura quickly consoled her. “Ms. White, don’t worry. I’ll call Master Kyle right away.”She called Kyle, but there was no answer.She remembered what Monica said about the shareholders’ meeting and guessed that he might still be busy.Thus, she sent a message explaining the situation about Monica wanting Zoe to leave.After sending the message, she heard Zoe’s voice asking, “Aunt Laura, is Ky really going to marry someone else?”“That’s...”Aunt Laura did not know how to answer for a moment.“Ms. White, you must believe that Master Kyle loves you.”“I love Ky too.
At the company.Kyle had a meeting that lasted the entire morning until noon.By the time it ended, it was almost 2 PM.As soon as he walked out of the meeting room, his assistant came forward and said, “Sir, Madam called earlier and said that she’s ill. She wants you to come to the old residence after finishing your work.”Upon hearing that his mother was not feeling well, Kyle left the company and returned to the old residence before he even had lunch.At home, he saw his mother lying in bed, looking frail.Kyle held her hand carefully. “Mom, how are you feeling?”Monica lay in bed and opened her eyes slightly, saying, “I’m fine now that you’re back. I’m just a bit dizzy and short of breath.”Kyle looked at the servant nearby and asked, “Has the doctor seen her?”“Yes, he said it’s a cold,” the servant replied in a low voice.Kyle frowned. His mother’s state did not look like a cold.Furthermore, she was usually very healthy and rarely got sick. She should not be this weak
After Kyle and Melanie left the bedroom, Monica sat up, and the sickly look on her face disappeared.Floyd said, “Monica, contact Mrs. Xepher later and invite her and her husband over for dinner tonight. Since Kyle is here, let’s finalize their marriage tonight.”Monica nodded. “I was thinking the same.”After a pause, she felt worried and asked, “I see that Kyle doesn’t seem to like Melanie. His attitude is so cold. If we rush their marriage and he doesn’t agree...”“He doesn’t have a choice!”Floyd’s expression was cold. “If he doesn’t marry Melanie, are we going to watch him continue to be with that little fool?”Hearing her husband’s words, Monica dispelled her worries.They were doing this for Kyle’s sake. They could not let him be with that little fool....After Kyle came down from upstairs, he sat on the couch.“Kyle, the weather is nice today. Let’s go for a walk in the garden.” Monica took the initiative to invite him.Kyle glanced at her indifferently with a polit
