"Okay, okay. I just happened to have some free time and nothing to do. So, since there were some ingredients, I decided to make something. Take a seat outside. The food will be ready soon." Marty nodded. He then said, "I will get the plates and cutlery." Evelyn didn't refuse. After a while, he walked out with the plates and cutlery. Soon, the mushroom soup was ready. Evelyn then placed the soup and fried rice on the table. After that, they began to eat. Her cooking skill was, of course, excellent. Even though it was rusty, the food was always tasty. Marty was so satisfied that he devoured two more plates of fried rice. After the meal, he rushed to wash the dishes. Evelyn did not contend with him and simply let him go. However, it was not until Marty went to the kitchen that she realized she overestimated his ability to do house chores. A scream erupted from the kitchen, accompanied by a "crash" sound. The sou
In the meantime, the makeup artist was helping Evelyn on her make up. Just then, a staff member came over. "Evelyn, sorry to interrupt. Erm... your assistant said that she suddenly has a stomach ache, so she would like to ask for a leave. Is it alright if we send in another assistant for you in the next few days?" After hearing the news, Evelyn was stunned. And she hadn't come to her senses. "Carrie is sick?" Then, she asked in surprise, "How come I didn't know about her stomachache? Where is she now?" The staff member said helplessly, "She has already gone to the hospital. Maybe it is an emergency, so he didn't have time to tell you. She asked me to inform you because the filming these two days is very heavy. Thus, I'll temporarily assign you another assistant. Is that okay?" Seeing this, Evelyn nodded. "No problem." In fact, she didn't care about this. She was only worried that Carrie was still fine a minute ago, but how did she
"W—What do you mean?" She saw clearly the words he had just written in her hand. It was 'I love you.' I love you. What the hell? Indeed, Evelyn was taken aback because to her, Andei was just an ordinary staff member. And they were not even familiar with each other. Plus, the most important thing was that she was married. Although it was a private marriage, she still made her promise, she wouldn't have another man outside behind Marty's back. While she was thinking, Evelyn's face became serious. Looking at the man in front of her, she said solemnly, "This kind of joke is not allowed in the future. I am your temporary boss and you are my temporary assistant. You must have a sense of propriety when you speak and act. Don't be rude. Do you understand?" Initially, she had thought he would be wary of her after listening to her words. But she didn't expect that he continued to laugh happily. Seeing that, Evelyn wa
In the next second, he replied calmly, "There's no need. I have a relative here. I'll go to his house at night." At those words, the staff was taken aback. "Well, is your relative living far away? We'll have to get up very early tomorrow. Can you come here in time?" Impassively, Marty replied, "Sure." The man heard his words and didn't persuade him any further, so he nodded. "Okay, then be careful on your way." After that, he went into the room by himself. Meanwhile, Evelyn, who was opening the door, heard the conversation clearly. After opening the door, she looked back and saw the man standing there with his hands in his pockets, smiling at her. With a serious look, she glared at him. Then without saying anything to him, she went straight into the room. Immediately, she closed the door, and locked it all in one go! Then, she clapped her hands proudly. Hmph. Since he acted upon himself and purposely came t
Seeing that, Marty didn't push her. Instead, he let her pack up on her own while he sat aside, reading the local morning newspaper. As a result, the assistant was supposed to serve her, but it was easily turned into the other way round, and she became the one working, as the assistant was enjoying himself. Glancing at him, Evelyn sighed helplessly. "By the way, I forgot to ask you last night, how is Carrie now? Since you're here, where is she?" At this time, the door was closed, and there were no outsiders in the room, so Evelyn dared to ask out loud. Chuckled when he heard her question, he said, "Of course I sent her back. What for staying here?" Hearing that, Evelyn was speechless again. However, it was also good that he had sent Carrie back home. At least in this way, it would save him the possibility of being exposed. As she thought about this, she felt relief. After she finished packing up, a staff member rang t
After all, because Marty was here, she was afraid that they would see something off if they spent too much time together. However, she couldn't resist everyone's enthusiasm. In the end, she couldn't refuse them, so she had to agree. Most importantly, there was only half a day's work left for tomorrow, and after the filming was finished, the work for this trip would be complete. Hence, everyone was more relaxed and wanted to go out to have fun. As she didn't want to disappoint everyone, she agreed. Seeing that she agreed, the photographer went to discuss the dinner location with everyone happily. It was only then that Evelyn truly felt relax and had some time for herself. When it was around five or six in the evening, the sun was setting, and the light was like a golden arrow, shining directly on earth. Their shooting site was in an ancient European castle. At that moment, Evelyn stood in the castle and gazed into the distant, facin
Turning around, he glanced at her and snorted. "So you still see me. I thought that you only see the others and no longer see me!" While removing her scarf, Evelyn stopped and looked at him blankly. After a few seconds, she came around and realized that he was jealous. Suddenly, she did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Who are you jealous of?" Wrinkling his nose, Marty didn't say anything. After taking off the scarf, Evelyn walked over, and squatted down in front of him. She placed her hands on his knees, and examined his face carefully. Seeing that he looked grim, he said with a smile, "I was only having dinner with the crew members and drank a little. What are you talking about? What do mean I don't see you?" Hearing that, Marty was speechless. In fact, he knew in his heart that he was being unreasonable. However, he had a strong sense of ownership over her that he didn't want to let her go. He didn't like t
In that case, her mother would forever bear the name of a murderer's wife. And she would always bear the name of a murderer's daughter. Even if the so-called father had never held his responsibility as a father. Even if she did not share the same blood with the man. Ultimately, Evelyn didn't want this man to be a stain left on her and her mother's life. It was not that she did not want to save him. It was just that when she thought of what Forbos had done to her and her mother over the years, she felt that it was too disgusting to die carrying his name. Therefore, she had to do it no matter what. Her mother's health condition had recovered a lot after the operation. After the operation, under the careful care of doctors, the wound recovered quickly. This morning, when she was talking to her mother on the phone, her mother sounded energized and youthful. Even the doctor said that she was in good condition now. As lo
"Hey, what are they going to talk about?" Being asked, Lauren looked at Clarissa before turning to look at the door. Then, she lowered her voice and explained, "Jameson wants to move his headquarters back to Ascijan, and recently, he has been battling with the elders of the Ethanbez Family. Most probably, he is here to ask Anderson for some advice." As everyone knew, the Jordan Group did not develop well when Carlos was managing it. After all, Carlos used to be in the military. Although he was skilled in leading his troops into battle, he didn't have much potential for doing business. Moreover, he was magnanimous, so he always put favors before money in business. If it weren't because of his rich family background, it would be hard to sustain his business. On the other hand, Anderson was different. He was a real businessman that was nimble-witted and vicious. Most of the time, when there was a crisis, he could easily turn the tables.
"I'll call you when I'm done," Clarissa added. Seeing how embarrassed she was, Anderson laughed. "Alright, be careful then. Call me when you're done." "Alright." After that, he opened the door and left. About three minutes later, Clarissa's shy voice came from inside. "I'm done." Upon hearing that, he opened the door again, tidied her clothes, and carried her out. As soon as Clarissa lay on her bed, the twins were awake. Then, Anderson carried them out and followed Clarissa's instructions to change their diapers and feed them. In fact, she couldn't feed the twins alone as they were barely a week old. So, they were fed with half breast milk and half baby fomula. Fortunately, they were in good health. When they were holding the milk bottle, their hands gripped it so tightly that sometimes Clarissa could barely take the bottle away. For the past two days, Carlos and Matteo also came. They were here to visi
After sitting down, Clarissa and Sierra held each other's hands and began to chat happily. The topics of their conversation were nothing more about children and families. Unlike Clarissa, Sierra was a housewife who didn't have much opinion. She not only had a gentle personality, but her thinking was also traditional. To her, the man had all the say. That was the reason Gianni and Chloe had the chance to ill-treat her. Last time, Clarissa didn't understand her thinking. Why didn't she fight back when her father was so mean? Even so, after having her own child, Clarissa could gradually understand Sierra's thinking. In fact, she was lucky to meet a nice man like Anderson. After they got married, she hardly suffered any injustice. However, not everyone in this world was this fortunate. In fact, most people led an extremely ordinary life with grievance and joy. Although their lives might be on the tougher side, they end
Anne rolled her eyes. "Don't you know that all newborn babies are small? You were this small when you were young." When Marf heard this, he became more shocked. Although he was intelligent, he was still young, and he was yet to learn some general knowledge. Besides, he lacked of life experience. Therefore, to him, it was surprising that there was such a small child in this world. As for Anne, she was there when Marf was newly born. So, she knew it. While clinging on the cradle, Anne and Marf kept staring at the twins with interest. Out of curiosity, Marf even poked his younger sister's face. When he felt the incredibly soft sensation of her skin, he was so surprised that he immediately withdrew his hand. With that, the baby twitched her lips in dissatisfaction. It seemed like she was going to cry, but she was too drowsy. Hence, she continued to sleep. For a while, Anne and Marf looked at her before being called over by Clariss
Staring at her, Anderson didn't know what to say. Instead, he asked with concern, "Are you hungry? I'll ask someone to prepare you some food." "Okay." Clarissa nodded. After Anderson went out, she scooted over, propped herself up, and looked at the twins in swaddling clothes. At that moment, the two plump babies were clenching their small white hands while sleeping peacefully. Looking at them, Clarissa was overjoyed, and all the negative emotions caused by the pain instantly disappeared. More than ten minutes later, Anderson returned with her food and a doctor. When the doctor saw that Clarissa was awake, he checked her wound and her condition. Once he made sure that she was fine, he called a lactation consultant to help her with breastfeeding. Then, he gave them some important advice before leaving. After that, Anderson placed the food on the small table in front of her. When Clarissa was about to sit up, he stopped he
Anderson looked at her, and after a long while, he realized that his whole body was trembling. Right away, he nodded. When Nora heard their conversation, she pursed her lips and stepped on the gas. At the same time, Clarissa directed Anderson to call their family. Well, since her amniotic fluid was broken, she would have a premature delivery no matter what because the expected delivery date was actually two weeks away. Therefore, they not only had to let Carlos and Matteo know, but they also had to ask Sierra and Robert to come over. Clarissa wanted to call Robert because he could help out if anything went wrong with her labor process. As for Sierra, her presence alone could calm Clarissa down. Besides, asking Sierra to stay by Clarissa's side was better than letting her imagination run wild at home. Anderson listened to Clarissa and did as he was told. After he called everyone, the car arrived at the hospital. Before th
Compared to her life, all the things that happened in the past were not important anymore. Now, Jara's biggest wish was to let Emmeline live healthily. As long as his wish could come true, he was willing to pay any price. After Coby's death, they found some Way Tree from his residence. However, those trees were only enough to last her for a year, and some members of the Marsh Family—who heard about Coby's death—had snatched the rest of the trees. As this tree could affect someone's life, no one would take it out again. Besides, Emmeline couldn't keep relying on Way Tree to survive. Therefore, they must try all ways to develop the antidote. However, a few months had passed, and yet, there was no progression. With that, Jara became anxious. On the other side, Clarissa's belly was getting bigger, and she was going to deliver in half a month. Because of this, Anderson rarely went to his company these days and accompanied her
With a serious look, he stared at Clarissa's belly and said, "I will make a few great robots. When they come out, I'll give the robots to them." Hearing that, Clarissa laughed, "What if your little sister doesn't like it?" Instantly, Marf's eyes widened. Because he was a big fan of robots, he thought that robot was the best gift in the world. So, it was hard for him to imagine that there were people who disliked robots. When Clarissa saw how cute he was, she giggled. On the other hand, Anderson also laughed, "It doesn't matter. If your little sister doesn't like it, you can give her a gift she likes." "As long as it is a gift from you, I believe she will like it." Only then, Marf understood what was going on and nodded. Then, with an earnest look, he promised, "Daddy, Mommy, don't worry. I will take good care of them!" When Anderson and Clarissa saw him acting like a little adult, they felt warm. Since Marf had made a pr
For a moment, Clarissa was stunned as she didn't quite understand what Lauren meant. Her love life wasn't perfect, and in the past, she even been in a relationship with a jerk like Elliot. However, since she got together with Anderson, their relationship had been smooth sailing, and they hardly encountered any setbacks. So, she thought that was how love usually worked. For Cara, Coby had actually persisted for a thousand years. This sounded like a scary and insane thing to do. However, thanks to his love for Cara, he did it. Therefore, if he didn't love her, how did he survive through those years? Seeing that Clarissa was confused, Lauren knew that Clarissa hadn't understood her words. With that, she let out a helpless sigh. "Actually, it's a good thing that you don't understand. It means that you've been living happily. If one day you understand, I will feel sorry for you," she uttered. Once again, Clarissa was dumbfoun
