The three fell silent for a while in the office.After some time, Kyle was the one to break the silence. "When are we starting—""In ten days," Blair replied, pausing momentarily. "I still have some things to take care of."He wanted to spend the remaining time with her.Blair stood up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and loomed at the overcast sky outside. It seemed like it was going to rain.Kyle walked over and placed a hand on Blair's shoulder, giving it a silent pat.Suddenly, something crossed Blair's mind, and he spoke with a meaningful tone. "Kyle, cherish the person in front of you."The biggest regret in his life was not cherishing Mable properly. He had wasted two years and even divorced her. Although they remarried in the end, they caused each other a lot of pain and misunderstandings.Kyle understood that Blair was referring to Zoe and nodded. "I understand."Solomon also approached them, shaking his head with a sad expression.He looked at the sky outside
Kyle reached out to pick up Zoe, who had run over barefoot. "You're not wearing shoes!"After caring for her for a while, Zoe had finally put on some weight. Unlike before, when her whole body was skin and bones, she now had a bit of flesh, making it more comfortable to hold her.Zoe, in Kyle's arms, swung her little legs playfully. "I knew Kyle would definitely pick me up."Kyle held Zoe and sat down on the sofa, pinching her nose. "You are a little clever girl!"Zoe touched Kyle's face with innocence, her smile pure and radiant. "Zoe is not just clever. Zoe is also cute."Kyle cupped Zoe's face, planting a kiss on her palm. "Little cutie, I wish I could just eat you up!"Zoe blinked innocently. “Kyle, Zoe is not food—”Before she could finish, Kyle kissed her passionately. He sucked her lips, and with a deep voice, he said, “Delicious. I could eat you all day.”He gently bit her lip after finishing his sentence.Zoe pouted. "Kyle is naughty!"Kyle cradled Zoe's face in hi
Blair stayed at the company until late at night. It was completely dark when he finally left and returned to the hospital, and Mable was having dinner. Aunt Grace had sent the food, as Mable could not stomach the food provided by the hospital. Blair had instructed Aunt Grace to have the servants prepare and deliver daily meals.Mable had little appetite and only ate a bit. "Have some more," Blair said as he served her a bowl of soup, urging her to drink more. She had dropped to 87 pounds after weighing herself in the morning, a total of ten pounds lighter than before the poisoning.Mable knew she ate too little but could not force herself to eat more. After receiving intravenous fluids today, she felt drained and lacked energy.Seeing Blair's concerned expression, Mable eventually finished the soup he had served her.In the evening, after helping Mable wash up in the bathroom, Blair asked, "Mabes, would you like to go for a walk outside?"Mable looked at him and nodded eag
Nicki opened her mouth wide and cheered with excitement. "Aunt Mabes, Uncle Blair, look!" She turned to Mable and Blair, pointing at the fireworks in the sky. Spike held Nicki's hand, gesturing for her to be quiet as he whispered, "Nicki, don't disturb Mommy."More colorful fireworks lit up the night sky, one after another, exploding with a dazzling display—silver flowers, brilliant and radiant.Then, after a silver firework burst in the night sky, it formed a heart shape, and a few letters appeared in the middle.‘MLM’Mable looked at the appearance of these letters in the night sky, puzzled. She turned to Blair. "What was that?"She had not heard that the amusement park's fireworks show included letters."MLM—do you know what this means?" Mable asked Blair with uncertainty.Blair held Mable's hand and placed a kiss on her palm. "My love, Mabes."Mable was taken aback and looked back at the night sky. After exploding in the sky, each burst of fireworks displayed these three
Mable’s concern grew as she watched her body weaken, day after day.There were some things she could not help but worry about.Would Blair remarry if she died?Deep love could not compare to the passage of time. After all, Blair was still so young.So, Mable asked the question that had been bothering her.However, as soon as she spoke, Blair’s expression changed.“Mable, you...”“Let me finish.”Mable turned around and covered his mouth. “I was just asking, so don’t get mad. A lifetime is a long time. If I die, it’s okay if you meet another nice girl and want to remarry...”She pursed her lips, holding back the sourness in her nose, and continued, “I won’t be angry, but I have one condition: she must treat Spike well. You...”“Shut up!”Blair could not bear it anymore and interrupted her.Mable stared at him, tears streaming down uncontrollably.“Do you really want me to remarry so much?”“No, I...”Mable choked up. Just the thought of Blair marrying another woman, calli
Blair leaned down to kiss her lips. “I’m here, Mabes...”After a while, he whispered, “I’m sorry...”Blair took a notebook and pen from the drawer and began to write while looking at her.When it was almost dawn, he put the notebook away, lay on the bed, and slept with her in his arms....When Mable woke up, she felt sore all over. Her legs trembled as she went downstairs for breakfast.After eating, she spent some time with the children before heading back to the hospital with Blair.On the way back to the hospital, she looked at Blair’s guilty expression and kissed his lips with a laugh. “I’m fine, babe. What was that saying? At least I’d have gone out with a bang. Last night was quite good.”They were both adults and a couple. It was normal for them not to be able to control their feelings.Blair’s mouth twitched as he pulled a face.He looked straight at her and pinched her cheek. “Don’t talk about death!”“Okay, okay.”In the hospital, before long, the doctor came to
Zoe took the ring and put it on Kyle’s ring finger, then reached to hold his hand. She looked at the rings on their hands with a bright smile.“It looks so beautiful, Ky.”Kyle held her hand and kissed the back of her palm. “Let’s go.”The two entered the bureau and waited for their turn to fill out forms. Then, they took photos and processed the paperwork...After completing the paperwork, the staff said with a smile, “Congratulations on your marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Goodman.”“Thank you.”Kyle took the documents and felt an unprecedented assurance in his heart.He had finally married Zoe.They were now legal husband and wife.“That’s it?” Zoe asked curiously as she looked at the documents in his hand.“Yeah. Let’s go.” Kyle led Zoe to stand up.“Okay.”Zoe glanced at the candies on the counter and felt a bit tempted. She asked the lady sitting at the counter, “Miss, are these candies for us?”She saw many people who came here to process their documents also had candies. Wh
Kyle looked at Zoe beside him, then at the marriage certificate in his hand, and smiled. “We’re quite well.”Floyd said, “Your mother recently contacted a foreign neurology expert. Once we’ve decided on a time, let him examine Zoe.”If Zoe could recover, he would not object to them being together and getting married.However, if she could not recover and remained the same, he would never allow them to be together.That was the line that Floyd set.Kyle looked at Zoe unwrapping another candy, his eyes filled with warmth. “Okay.”After hanging up the phone, he wrapped her in his arms. “I have a dinner tomorrow and can’t have it at home with you. Be good and wait for me at home, okay?”Zoe looked up at him. “Okay.”Then, she touched Kyle’s face and instructed, “Don’t drink too much.”“Mm.”Zoe thought of something else and said, “I wonder how Mabes is doing. I want to see her at the hospital tomorrow. You can bring me back when you’re done with work.”“Sure.”The next afternoo
