Jameson was taken aback. Lauren had wanted to say these words for a long time, but she had been suppressing the urge to do so and did not dare to say it. At this point, she felt a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders. She got rid of Jameson's hand and walked to the side. She took a deep breath as she felt tears were welling up. She tried to hold it back. Lauren sneered and said, "Besides, stop holding on to what happened five years ago. A lot has changed over the five years. Who said that if you want us to be together now, I will agree to that?" "I haven't loved you for a long time. By the way, you still don't know? I have a boyfriend. He is very nice to me, so you don't have to worry about my future." Jameson's pupils suddenly constricted. "What did you say?" Lauren turned to look at him holding her head up high. She said confidently, "I said that I have a boyfriend. His name is Marty. He is the youngest son of the Blaine Famil
Outside the room came the sound of servants pacing. Someone stopped at the door and whispered, "Miss Lauren, are you okay?" Lauren's body stiffened all of a sudden. Needless to say, she also knew that the servant must have heard the sound inside and came over to ask because she was worried about Lauren. She glared at the man in front of her right away, indicating for him to let go of her hand. However, Jameson pretended not to see it. He still put his hand around her waist, pinned her body against the door, and held her tightly. Lauren had no choice but to respond. "I'm fine." The servant was confused, but she did not ask any more questions. She turned around and left. When the servant had left, Lauren glared at Jameson again and said coldly, "You should let me go now." Jameson looked at her calmly, but he did not loosen his grip. Instead, he leaned forward slightly and got closer to her. Lauren felt a sense of oppression, making he
Lauren burst into tears. Tears rolled down her face like beads of a broken string. Lauren felt her heart was being crushed. It was sore and swollen as an indescribable feeling spread all over her, causing her to shiver. Jameson sighed and held her in his arms. Lauren cried even harder. She clung onto his clothes and buried her face in his arms, crying like a child. It had been five years and four years of separation. After a night of madness, she gave birth to Joy all by herself later on. All the feelings, resentments, and right and wrong between the two of them made her exhausted. But now she felt like giving up. Now, Lauren only wanted to take the child far away and live a quiet life. She did not want to be in love anymore. It hurt. She had even given up her status as the eldest daughter of the Jones family and her father's pampering for this. However, at this point in time, he had come to speak such words to her to reconcile the
Jameson turned his head and glanced at her. Under his gaze, Lauren could not hold back her feelings as she complained, "The proposal wasn't romantic at all. Besides, there's no wedding ceremony being held, so I won't admit that we're married. Dream on, Jameson." Jameson shrugged indifferently. "It doesn't matter, as long as the law recognizes it." Lauren was speechless. The car soon arrived at the airport. When she looked at the flight ticket that had been prepared by Jameson in advance, Lauren hesitated. She knew what was going to happen when Dexter found out about what had happened after he returned home, but Lauren still followed him to board the plane. Lauren also knew that once she made a choice, there would be no turning back for her. Even if Lauren had told him that she did not recognize their marriage, deep inside her heart, she had acknowledged the fact that they were married. She had voluntarily signed up for it. The marriage ce
Jameson could not help squinting his eyes happily after seeing her reaction. "Mrs. Green, are you satisfied with what you saw?" He wiped his hair with a towel while asking. Lauren blushed and coughed awkwardly. She then pursed his lips and said untruthfully, "Who wants to look at you! Shame on you!" As she said that, she turned her back against him, pretending not to ignore him. But Lauren didn't know that the more she tried to hide it, the more it showed that she cared. Jameson was suddenly in a good mood as his anger before had subsided. He dried his hair, removed the bath towel and climbed onto bed. Lauren was still trying to figure things out when somebody was approaching behind her. Shocked, Lauren sat up and looked at Jameson who was climbing onto the bed while lifting the blanket. Lauren suddenly screamed, "What are you doing?" Jameson raised his eyebrows innocently. "I'm going to sleep." Lauren glared at h
After all, Clarissa knew how hard Lauren's life had been in the past year. She had cursed him countless times before, the heartless man who had no responsibility at all, even when Clarissa didn't know who he was. He didn't show up when she gave birth to their child. Lauren had to go through all the sufferings by herself. Clarissa's expression darkened at once. She obviously looked displeased now. Although Clarissa also knew that there might be some undisclosed twists and turns that they had experienced, she still couldn't help but to make snarky remarks. Jameson wasn't not bothered about it. He knew that Clarissa and Lauren were close, so he would not really take such a trivial incident to heart. After they fetched Joy, Jameson took Lauren home. Although Clarissa still disagreed with Lauren being with him in this matter, it was, after all, their private affair. She was in no position to intervene in it. Fortunately, Lauren had found her contrac
Clarissa pursed her lips and thought for a moment, then agreed to her. "Alright, get in." Gabriela parked her car at the back before sitting in the front passenger seat of Clarissa's car. Clarissa felt a little embarrassed. After all, this was the second time that she ran into Gabriela and Aaron being together. As the saying goes, once the accident, twice the coincidence, third the pattern. Not to mention Gabriela, even Clarissa herself could not believe that there would be such a coincidence when they ran into each other twice in a row. "Miss Levine, what do you want to talk to me about?" Although Clarissa knew it in her heart, she still asked. Gabriela didn't look at her. She looked at the front coldly and said in a low voice, "Did you hear everything we said just now?" "Cough!" Clarissa coughed awkwardly and explained in a hurry, "I didn't mean to. Really, I just came down to get the car and was about to leave. Who would have tho
Clarissa brought over the soup to Anderson, which Pattie specially made for them as Clarissa had been feeling unwell and cold recently. Besides, Anderson had been too busy with his work, so Pattie had specially cooked some herbal soup for them. Since Clarissa had already drunk it, she sat there to accompany Anderson. As she watched him drink the soup, she said, "Since Old Master Levine is in this state, the Levine family should be in a mess!" Speaking of this, Anderson sneered. "It's more than a mess. It's so chaotic that it's unbelievable to watch." Clarissa laughed. "There are many children in the Levine family. Uncle Gimmy and Uncle Gilee are not born to the same mother. Besides, it's a huge family with a lot of distant relatives. Naturally, the competition between the two brothers is inevitable. Fortunately, Old Master Levine can be saved this time. I think that for the sake of the family, he will arrange things in advance to avoid trouble in the futur
