Zoe was happy, and Kyle was too.Monica looked at her son and sighed with relief. "Kyle, you should also take care of yourself while taking care of Zoe."She had grown to love Zoe just as Kyle did, and seeing their deep love for each other, she wanted to try to accept her.Kyle nodded and smiled. "Mom, don't worry, I'll take good care of myself."After spending some time in the bedroom, Monica left. Once she was gone, Zoe hugged Kyle, and her eyes sparkled with happiness. "Ky, I'm so happy! Your mom didn't chase me away."Kyle kissed her lightly and said, "If you're happy, eat more later and get well soon."Zoe nodded."Oh, by the way, was that check from Mable?" Kyle asked when he noticed Mable's signature on the check.Zoe nodded and said, "Yes, it's from Mabes."Kyle raised an eyebrow and asked, "Did she also teach you to offer to support me financially?"Zoe nodded again and curiously asked, "Kyle, what does 'support' mean?"Kyle chuckled lightly, thinking Zoe was as inn
Zoe found it hard to adapt in the Goodman Residence. Although Kyle's parents no longer opposed her relationship with Kyle, the unfamiliar surroundings still made her uneasy. Kyle brought her back to his villa once she had recovered a little.He brought his work home to spend more time with Zoe and allow himself to heal.One afternoon, while Kyle was working in the study, Zoe watched TV in the living room and decided not to disturb him.The doorbell rang, and Aunt Laura answered it. Soon after, Melanie entered the house."Ms. Zepher, Master Kyle is working upstairs. Please wait for a moment, and I'll inform him," Aunt Laura said."Alright, Aunt Laura." Melanie nodded and glanced at Zoe sideways.While Aunt Laura went upstairs, Melanie asked Zoe, "Ms. White, is the injury on your back getting better?"Zoe nodded in response but chose to remain silent. She did not like Melanie and had no intention of conversing with her.Melanie noticed the necklace around Zoe's neck, which she
Melanie covered her bleeding nose, tears streaming down her face. She looked pitiful with her crying and nosebleed.Kyle narrowed his eyes and spoke sternly, "Is that so?"He glanced at Zoe, who was in his arms, and asked, "Zoe, did you hurt Melanie?"Zoe heard Kyle’s stern voice and nodded reluctantly with teary eyes. "Yes. But—"Before Zoe could explain, Kyle interrupted her. "You've become more disobedient."Zoe bit her lip, thinking that Kyle was angry with her. Tears welled up in her eyes.It was Melanie’s fault that she grabbed her necklace and called her names which caused Zoe to retaliate physically.Melanie implored, "Kyle, even though we've canceled our engagement, we should still be friends, right? You can't let your girlfriend treat me like this!"Kyle, cradling Zoe's shoulder, sat down on the couch and played with her hand. His tone was gentle as he said, "My dear Zoe has always been gentle and obedient, like a little kitten. If someone hadn't provoked her first, s
In Kyle’s Villa.After Melanie left, Zoe angrily returned to the bedroom, removed the necklace around her neck, and vigorously wiped it with a soft cloth for cleaning jewelry.Kyle hugged Zoe from behind. "Zoe, are you angry?"Zoe turned around and looked at him unhappily, "Kyle, I hate her!"Kyle nodded, saying, "I've already talked to Aunt Laura; she won't be allowed in again."Zoe nodded in return, looking at the precious necklace in her hand as she said, "This is the necklace you gave me."Kyle took the necklace from her hand and put it back on her. He said, "If anyone dares to take your necklace, tell me, and I'll personally take care of them."Zoe nodded vigorously, hugging Kyle. "The necklace is mine, as is Kyle.""Yes, yes, I’m all yours." Kyle smiled. Not long after Melanie left, Kyle received a call from his father asking him to return to the mansion. His tone was full of anger, and Kyle probably guessed the reason. After hanging up, he asked Zoe to wait for him a
“Oh? Well, someone like you should be called 'mentally challenged'!" Melanie spat out the insult."Let go of me!" Zoe shouted.After Kyle's parents watched the footage on the surveillance video, they looked at Melanie, whose expression had changed."Melanie, how could you?" Monica looked at Melanie, both angry and furious.Monica might have been even more ruthless than Zoe if it were her. A punch would have been too lenient!Floyd also looked at Melanie. His disappointment was evident.They initially thought she was the victim, but unexpectedly, she provoked Zoe first, physically forced her, and even used foul language. She got what she deserved!Melanie had not anticipated there to be surveillance in the living room. Otherwise, she would never have said those things."Mr. and Mrs. Floyd, please let me explain. I was joking with Zoe."Seeing the sudden change in the situation, Jane hurriedly defended her daughter, "Yes, our Melanie has been a well-mannered, good child since ch
Melanie was furious. "How was I supposed to know that Kyle had installed surveillance in the living room?"Zoe, that jerk, broke her nose. She would not let her get away with it.Jane looked at her daughter and advised, "I've told you. It doesn't matter if Kyle doesn't like you now. If you gain approval from his parents, it's like stepping half a foot into the Gates of the Goodmans!""Don't be deceived by their lack of objection to Kyle being with that idiot, Zoe. It's just temporary. Considering Zoe's situation, the Goodmans will never agree to their marriage unless she miraculously recovers her normal intelligence. As long as they don't get married, you have a chance! You mustn’t rush or let them have a bad impression of you, understand?"Melanie was about to explode angrily. Even though she understood her mom was right, she could not swallow her pride. She looked at her mother, speaking with deep concern, "Mom, do you think there's any chance for Zoe to recover?""I consulted a
Mable pulled Blair down to sit and took out lunch, placing it on the table one by one. "If I didn't come, you'd be too busy and forget to eat."Blair looked at Mable, eyes filled with happiness. "I knew you were coming, so I waited for you."Mable handed him the cutlery. "Take a short nap after lunch. We don’t want you tiring yourself out."As he was busy until early morning, sleeping for under five hours, Blair had dark circles under his eyes.Blair looked tenderly at Mable, saying, "Lie down with me for a while later.""I'm afraid I can't." Blair raised his eyebrow, then heard Mable saying, "I need to hurry to the medicine market. The owner messaged me this morning, saying the Flower of Dragonbone is available."Mable was worried about being late and someone else buying them first.Blair nodded. "I'll have Arthur accompany you."Mable said, "It’s okay. Hugh is waiting for me downstairs; he can accompany me. After I'm done, I’ll pick you up after work.""Okay. Be careful on
Hugh ran back to the traditional Chinese medicine shop and found the owner lying unconscious. He immediately sensed then that something serious had happened."Boss!"Hugh rushed into the guest room but found no trace of Mable.This was not good. He immediately called Blair. "Master Blair, the boss is missing!"At X.When Hugh's call came in, Blair was preparing to take a short nap.As soon as he answered, he heard him say that Mable was missing."What the hell is going on?!" Blair stood up abruptly, exuding a chilling aura.Was she not supposed to be at the medicine market? How could she suddenly disappear?Hugh briefly explained the situation to Blair. To which, Blair immediately said, "Check the shop’s surveillance immediately!"While saying this, Blair opened his computer to check Mable's phone location. “Mabes, please be safe.”Blair swiftly typed on the keyboard. In less than five minutes, he got Mable's phone location.When he saw the location on the map, Blair's expr
“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
