Even though Blair had something to say, he swallowed his words. After all, Mable did not respond to what he said. Instead, she avoided it. Blair then stood up and started to undress. “W-what are you doing?!” Mable clutched the blanket and quickly moved to the side. Blair threw his jacket on the chair and lifted the cover to lay beside her. “Didn’t you want to rest? I’ll keep you company.” Mable pushed him. “I don’t need your company…” “I do.” Blair grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms. “Mabes, I took care of you all night. I’m sleepy too.” After saying that, he buried his head in her neck and hugged her waist tightly. Angry and annoyed, Mable pushed him twice but failed to achieve anything. ‘When did he become so rogue?!’ Before long, Blair’s breathing evened out. Mable stared at his handsome face and sighed helplessly. She was not sleepy and only said that to send him away. Now that she was listening to his regular heartbeat and breathing, s
Tracey’s face changed when she heard the annoying voice. She cursed internally. Naomi strutted over while holding her helmet with one hand. “Long time no see, Tracey. What’s the matter? Do you not recognize me?” Tracey looked at her indignantly. “Get out of the way.” Naomi sneered. “How dare a loser like you make a fuss in front of me?!” Tracey retorted, “So what if I’m a loser? I don’t believe you’ll ever win on the track!” Mable raised her eyebrow. Naomi was the cheating partner of Tracey’s ex-boyfriend. Tracey had come here to play a year ago. Unexpectedly, she met her ex-boyfriend and his mistress. The breakup happened long ago, so Tracey did not bother about them. Who knew that Naomi would provoke her and propose a race?Tracey was mad and agreed to it. The two made a bet that the loser would leave their car behind and slap themselves twice in public. In the end, it was Tracey who lost. Mable still remembered when Tracey cried and confided in her. They had got
‘Is this Tracey’s first love?’ Mable turned to look at Tracey and roasted her, “You had… terrible taste!” “I know, right?!” Naomi filled Ben in on what had happened earlier. Hence, he looked at Mable, whose right hand was bandaged, in disbelief. “She wants to race you?” Tracey tugged at Mable’s hand and advised her, “Mabes, it’s better not to compete with her.” “Don’t worry.” Mable patted her shoulder. “I’ll avenge the humiliation you suffered last year!” “You’re overestimating yourself!” Naomi snorted coldly and looked at Mable and Tracey with mischief. “So, how do you want to do this? What are the stakes?” “Isn’t racing your forte? Let’s compete in racing, then. As for the stakes—” Before Mable could finish, Naomi said, “If you lose, you’ll have to striptease on the stage for an hour and take off everything at the end!” There was a loud uproar from the surroundings after she said that. “Fuck! That’s intense!” “Nomes is doing us a favor!” “Fuck! I’ll strip
The race on the track was about to start! With a “bang” by the signal gun, all the cars on the track sped off in unison. The audience on both sides of the track was shouting. There were nine corners on the track, with the difficulty increasing after every turn. In particular, the last three corners were uphill or downhill, and they were narrow and dangerous. In every race, at least 80% of the cars were lost there. The first corner was filled with cars. Mable held the steering wheel with one hand and drove slowly. Naomi had entered the third corner when Mable had exited the first. Tracey stood on the bleachers, praying for Blair to arrive soon while hoping Naomi would face defeat today. “Does she know how to race?” Howard frowned slightly as he looked at Mable’s car on the track. Tracey was so anxious that she was on the verge of crying. “I don’t know…” Howard commented, “It looks like she’s going to lose.” When he saw Mable being so confident, he thought she knew
While Mable and Howard were talking, Naomi reached the finish line. However, she did not get out of the car. Instead, she gripped the steering wheel hard and looked at Mable in disbelief. ‘She defeated me. ‘How is that possible? ‘I’m a professional racer, and I’ve raced on this track hundreds of times. How could I lose to her?’ Tracey walked to the side of the car and tapped on the window. “Naomi, be ready to accept your loss. When are you going to come out and dance?!” ‘Dance?’ Only then did Naomi remember the bet she had made. If she lost, she would have to striptease on the stage, slap herself 200 times, and call Tracey Daddy. ‘No! ‘Never!’ Naomi got down from the car and took off her helmet. She pointed at Mable and shouted, “There’s no way I lost. You must’ve cheated!” “Naomi!” Ben ran forward to pull away the emotional Naomi. Mable looked at her askance. “Where’s the proof?” Tracey put her hands on her waist and retorted without hesitation. “Blaming othe
Blair glanced indifferently at Naomi. “Since the bet was made before the match, do it now!” Naomi turned pale with fear. ‘Doing a striptease on the stage and slapping myself 200 times? How can I live after it?’“No… I don’t want to. Ben…” Naomi grabbed Ben and begged for help. Ben looked at Blair and bowed stiffly. “Master Blair, Naomi only acted in a moment of anger—” Blair sneered. “Who the hell are you? Is there a place for you to speak here?” Ben choked and did not dare to speak anymore. Blair was not someone he could offend. “Trace…” Ben looked to Tracey for help, hoping she could help say something for them. Tracey rolled her eyes. “Don’t call me that—it’s disgusting!” Ben was helpless. Judging from the situation, they were determined to make Naomi fulfill the bet. He looked at the woman hiding behind him. “Naomi…” “No… I don’t want to do a striptease on stage.” Naomi shook off Ben’s hand and turned to escape. Nevertheless, Blair raised his hand, and Amos
“Then be obedient,” Blair said. Mable gritted her teeth hard, wanting to bite him to death! Blair wrapped his hands around her waist and softened his tone. “Howard isn’t a good person. Stay away from him!” Mable rolled her eyes at him. “I don’t think you’re a good person either!” The hands on her waist suddenly tightened. Caught off guard, she was pressed against Blair’s chest. Blair stared at her. “It’s true. I’m not a good person, but I won’t hurt you, Mabes.” Mable was stunned and moved. Afraid he would see through her mind, she quickly avoided his eyes and looked out the window. “Give me your hand!” Blair said. Mable hesitated before she stretched out her left hand. “What…?” Before she could finish, a cake box was placed in her hand. ‘This is…’ Blair said, “They launched a new mousse cake today. It was on the way, so I bought it.” The driver was taken aback by his words.‘On the way? ‘How is an hour detour on the way?’ Mable looked at the cake in her
The morning sun was blazing. In the open space outside the villa, two rows of dazzling supercars were lined up. They were in all kinds of colors. There were the McLaren P1 LM, LykanHypersport, Lamborghini Veneno Roadster, Koenigsegg One: 1, and so on. Mable was stunned when she saw the supercars. She pointed at them and asked, “...Who’s the extravagant show-off?!” Tracey smiled excitedly. “Who else? My brother, of course!” Mable was speechless.All of the cars were global limited editions. Each cost at least a million dollars, and they were not something one could just buy with money. For instance, even Rahman, who loved cars as much as he did his life, had been thinking of getting the LykanHypersport for a year. However, he could not get his hands on it. “Why did he buy so many cars?” Mable asked. Blair was rich, but buying so many supercars in one go must have cost a fortune. Tracey looked enviously at Mable. “For you, of course.” Mable was confused by her word
“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
