"You're the one who pulled me…"Natalie explained in a panic.It was obvious whose fault it was, especially after her saying it so bluntly. Nevertheless, she could not help but continue to blush.They were too close. Furthermore, she was lying on top of him, and it was very…"It wasn’t my fault!"Natalie emphasized it by saying it louder once more. It was not her doing since he was the one who had pulled her back when she was getting up. That was why she had fallen.Nevertheless, despite wanting to express that fact, her voice sounded sweet and demure when she spoke. She could not help but cover her mouth when she heard herself.Oh lord! What in the world was she doing?When John saw Natalie’s panicked expression, a faint smile appeared on his usually cold face. He said mockingly, "I merely wanted to see your current expression. That’s the reason why I pulled you back.""..."What was he talking about?Natalie opened her small mouth and stared into his eyes; his reaction was
Sean had stayed in the hospital throughout the night because he had been worried about Howie’s condition.When he woke up in his office that morning, he found that Luke had sent him a fax. As for the contents on it…Once he was done looking through it, he felt so angry that his face became distorted.He furiously stormed out of the office. There, he unexpectedly saw Natalie outside of Howie’s ICU ward with a pained expression on her face.“What’s wrong, Natalie?”After sprinting over to her, he looked at her abnormally red face and asked nervously, “Do you feel unwell?”“Dr. Quinton…”The sudden voice frightened had her. Hence, when she turned around, her face was even redder. “Why are you here?”Sean chuckled naturally. “Isn’t it normal for me to be here? As for you, are you okay? Why is your complexion a bit off?”As he spoke, Sean lifted his right hand and subconsciously reached for Natalie’s forehead. He wanted to see if her reddish complexion was because of a fever. Conse
There were so many questions she wanted to ask out loud. However, the words were stuck in her throat, and she could not get them out.Seeing the dodging gaze in her eyes, Sean knew what she was thinking without asking. “Of course you’re related. The reason you can’t divorce him is that Old Master Winters had promised you that he’ll save Howie, right? So if Howie can’t be saved, then would you still have a reason to stay with him?”Natalie, “...”Was it because of that?He was going to kill her brother just because of that?No, no, no, no, no. John was a ruthless man, but he was not…Wait, she had just mentioned that he was a ruthless man. Thus, how could she know that he would not do such a thing?Moreover, he liked Becky a lot and wanted to marry her. To get rid of the obstacle himself, it was possible that he would do anything, right?No, no no, no…She could not be swayed just by that. She had to look deeper and… and trust him more…However, could he be trusted?The scene
“Natalie…”Amidst the shouting, John’s body reflexively jumped up to shield her in his arms. He seized the opportunity to hold her in the air while simultaneously whirling to flip his body.After all, he was a person who had spent many years in the army. He used his flexible body to dissipate most of the shock from the fall. Nevertheless, even after becoming Natalie’s human cushion, the lady still fainted from being overly startled. He looked at the petite woman who had no idea what had just transpired, and John’s heart felt like it was about to burst out of his chest. “Natalie, Natalie…”“Wake up, wake up!”Even after calling out so many times, there was no response. John was now flustered, and he stretched out his hand to pat her face vigorously. However, even after doing so, her eyes were still shut tight, and she seemed unconscious.In a panic, he picked her up without saying a word and then went straight to the emergency room…Fortunately, Natalie was out of it and did not
It was not until that evening that Natalie opened her eyes in a daze…She felt like she had dreamt for a very long time. However, the moment she opened her eyes, everything she had dreamt of seemed to have disappeared; she was left without a single memory.She knew she had been crying the whole time even though she could not remember what she had dreamt about.Her eyes were stinging, were they swollen?Natalie subconsciously reached out and touched her eyes. Almost at the same time, John’s slightly cold-toned voice was heard over her head. “Are you awake?”At that moment, an intense heartache caused Natalie to re-shut her eyes.She had merely throughout about it, but it became her first reaction anyway.After seeing her response, a gloomy look appeared on the man’s expressionless face. “Are you pretending to be asleep?”“...”She did not respond nor open her eyes and merely rejected him silently as a whole.If she had never found out about that matter, she might have been com
Then you better abort it!Sure enough, he said it anyway. Despite all the things he had said before, his ultimate goal was still that…Although Natalie Snowden had known that it would happen long before he spoke, hearing him say it himself still cut to her heart. Her hand unconsciously drifted to her belly…There, a small life was growing. Sadly, it did not receive anyone’s blessing, what more anyone that was looking forward to its arrival… including herself!Her heart was torn with guilt borne of self-blame, helplessness, and powerlessness. Natalie knew that keeping the baby at this point would only serve to put them in an awkward position. Yet, at this moment where she had to make a final decision, she was unable to speak.Abort it!Oh, to follow suit and say it candidly! Yet, those words remained lodged in her throat, unable to tumble out of her mouth.However, no matter how difficult it was, she had to push through, even though…Unconsciously, her grip on her belly tight
“He was the one who paid for it. If he wasn’t the one who arranged it, who else could it have been?”Having raised the question, Natalie’s tone grew more urgent as she said, “Grandpa, it’s about time you realized that relationships are not something you can force through wishful thinking.”At this point, she was so distraught that her voice cracked, “He… truly loves Becky, so much that he’s willing to do such terrible things for her. So, can’t you approve of them? They have no blood relations, do they? Why can’t you let them be together?”If Natalie had not brought up Becky Winters, Old Master Winters’ decision truly might have been swayed by Natalie’s emotions. However, upon hearing the name of his inscrutable granddaughter…In an instant, the old man’s face fell. “Even if you say that, I can’t guarantee anything. However, I’ll be sure to thoroughly investigate the matter of the expert having been escorted away. If it was truly John who did it, I’ll make sure he gives you an expla
John Winters knew that his grandfather would not speak lightly about something like that.However, since the old man had said it, he was most likely certain of it. John also understood what his grandfather meant when he said that he could guess what was going on. Yet…When he went back to the company, his heart was still conflicted.Not investigating was impossible, but could he deal with the findings of his investigation? Even if he could not cope with them, he was not willing to live like a blind man, so he immediately had Greg investigate the matter.Greg Hudson was an efficient man. In less than an hour, he returned with reliable information. “President, the money was indeed transferred from your card.”Upon hearing that, John did not say anything. Instead, he waited for Greg to carry on.Greg was someone who had been with him for many years. Without John having to say anything else, Greg already knew what John wanted to ask. Thus, he got straight to the point, “Those two p
Although they were only leaving for the capital, everyone knew that this was the formal farewell ceremony between Howard and Natalie...Hence, he held back his tears. “I know, Sis. I also want too see your babies. Although I can’t see them, you must tell her that Uncle loves them very much...”Natalie didn't expect him to mention the baby in her belly, so she smiled and said, "If you love her, come back and see her.""Okay, if I have time, I will definitely come back..."Natalie said, "You have to come back whenever you have time.""Well, do you have time? I will come back..."Hearing her brother's promise, Natalie suddenly couldn't help crying. She buried her head in her brother's chest and began to cry silently...Looking at her sister's reaction, wonton felt a lump in his throat. Even though he was a grown man, he couldn't help shedding two lines of tears.Just like that, the two siblings hugged each other and cried bitterly. Then, he also burst into tears.The moods of the
Her heart swelled and her nose grew sour. “All of you don’t care about my feelings at all. You’re heartless...”"Sister, I still have a conscience..."She knew that her sister would feel uncomfortable, so the mistress didn't mention it for a few days and kept it until now.He also said, "I am a man who will be a diplomatic ambassador in the future. If I stay at home alone, how can I see the world?""But, how can I rest assured when you're outside alone? Chloe at least have..."At least she had Jordan.Even if her sister did not finish her words, Holly knew what she was going to say. She smiled, but he did not take it seriously. "She's a girl, and I'm a man!""In my eyes, they are all children..."Of course, Howard understood this, so she smiled casually and said, "If you're so worried about me, you can come and see me often. When I'm not busy with class, I'll come back..."Speaking of this, he seemed to be afraid that his sister would feel uncomfortable, so he added, "And, I k
Capital Hua.On one hand, John was pressuring him, and on the other, Yvonne was pressuring him. On the other hand, even if Lawrence did not want his liver, he still had his sister’s attitude. Two days later, Silas Yin could no longer hold on.He had compromised and agreed to Yvonne’s request...After that, the shares of the Yeager family were divided into two. However, it was changed from fifty-fifty to forty-six by Yvonne. He took six, and Yvonne took four.On the surface, Yvonne seemed to have suffered a little loss, but her 10% concession finally made Silas sign the operation form three days later.After that, everything went as planned.The surgery was very successful. Although it was not a gift from a relative, Lawrence reacted very well after the surgery, and his vital signs gradually improved.Molly was the happiest. When she came to see her brother every day, the smile on her face was also the most brilliant...In order to save her brother, she had lost everything she w
When he received the summons from his three elders, Zachary was peeling oranges and feeding them to Jenny.As a result, a phone call came and both of them panicked.Even though the two of them were not worried about the same person, when they rushed over, both of them were already drenched in sweat...Jenny was afraid that her mother would suffer losses, so after she arrived at the Fu family home, she kept looking at her mother up and down several times. When she was sure that there was nothing wrong with her mother's body, she heaved a long sigh of relief.However, after taking a deep breath, he took another one.At that time, Mrs. Klein had directly said, "I called you here today to discuss your marriage. Let's pick a good date!""Huh?""..."Unsure of what had happened, Jenny and Zachary stared at each other blankly for a long time, unsure if what they had heard was true or not.“Sit down first!” Mrs. Stone interrupted. “Talking about marriage is no ordinary matter. It’ll t
Mrs. Stone could tell that she had plans, but she didn't intend to give in at all. She even said, "Isn't it great? With her rich experience, she can find any girl she wants. As for my daughter, with her stubborn character, she probably won't get married in a short time. It's just the right time to raise a child. Don't worry!"How could she let Mrs. Klein feel at ease?No matter what, she was still his grandson or granddaughter. At her age, she had wanted the third generation for a long time, so...She wanted to keep this child and asked, "Do you really think so? Or are you the only one who thinks so? Have you asked Jenny?""I made the decision for her, and I took the money for her...""This... is not good!"Mrs. Klein wanted to say more, but Mrs. Stone waved her hand and said bluntly, "There's nothing good about it. It's better than hitting a child again... Anyway, your family can't accept Mark's grandson, so it's better not to delay.""..."These words rendered Mrs. Klein spee
It was a triplets!Not to mention Mrs. Stone and Jenny, Zachary was stunned when he heard that...The Klein family had never had a twin before, but now, they had three at once.He was about to go crazy with joy, and in front of his mother, he lifted her up and spun around a few times, scaring her so much that she knocked on his door.It was not until he had finally let go of her that he suddenly hugged Jenny tightly. Then...She could feel the warmth coming from her shoulder area...Was...he crying?This man was too much. He had a smile on his face at all times, yet he actually shed tears because of something like this. However, her heart warmed even more when she saw him like this.Moreover, when she first knew that she was pregnant, her first reaction was to worry about whether she could get it or not!But now it seemed that even if he didn't want it, he wouldn't allow it!Moreover, there were three of them!The two of them held each other in their arms for a long time, wh
How could Yvonne not see through his refusal?When she thought of the doting love she had experienced in the past and the end of her fate with this child in the future, Yvonne cried again and said in a trembling voice, "I... I will guard you..."Hearing this, Lawrence did not respond, but closed his eyes right in front of her...Seeing her nephew like this, Yvonne understood that her relationship with this child had come to an end...The things that she was left was this child’s “heartless fee” and her own “heartless fee”.However, even though her heart was still throbbing with pain, even though the palms and backs of her hands were all flesh and blood, they were still her own flesh and blood. For the sake of her own child, she could only disregard her conscience this time.At this point, Yvonne’s eyes also turned red. When she walked out of the ward, she kept on wiping her tears...She didn’t want to be this selfish either! However, she had blindly married the wrong man. If she
When Yvonne did not come over, Molly was actually very angry with her.It could be said that even if she came over, Molly did not want to talk to her when she first saw her. But now, seeing her crying like this, Molly seemed to be a little softhearted...Because even if Molly angered her, she could see that Yvonne's tears were sincere.After all, she had raised Lawrence for many years. Even if she had designs on him, her feelings for him were most likely real.Therefore, there were many questions for her to ask, but Molly did not say anything at this time. She just stood far away and looked at them.Yvonne cried for a long time before she finally stopped. She held Lawrence’s hand tightly and said, "I’m sorry. I promised Brother that I would take good care of you, but now..."As she spoke, she choked with sobs again...When he finally raised his head, his eyes were swollen. "I'm sorry, Lawrence, I'm really sorry, but... if I don't do this, even if you are cured in the future, the
This question...It was rather a complicated question. It was better to say that Molly had never thought of this reason.She was surprised. "Are you saying that my father doesn't want to help my aunt because I'm close to her?""It's natural for you to be close to your aunt, but your aunt is such a person. How can your father trust her to guide you?""..."Molly remained silent. She glanced at her brother and realized that his complexion was much worse than before.She had only been with her aunt for a short period of time, and her brother had been raised by her aunt since he was a child. In terms of the blow, she was no match for her brother.Molly reached out and pulled her brother's hand. Although her brother was unhappy, he still squeezed a smile for her.However, that smile made her heartache even more!At this moment, Larry said, "Even an outsider like me is quite unhappy with your aunt after hearing what you just said. Don't you know how much your dad dotes on you?"Spe
