At last, she came out with a broad suggestion. "How about this? The one who loses will have to agree with one request of the winner. No matter what it is, you can't refuse." When he heard these words, Marty's eyes lit up . Slightly narrowing his eyes, he gave a malicious smile. "Really?" In the meantime, Evelyn seemed to not realize that she had dug a hole for herself. With a strong sense of righteousness, she even added. "Of course, a word spoken is past calling. Whoever cheats is a coward!" Immediately, Marty smiled happily and said, "Okay, since you want to make a bet, I'll play along with you." Hence, the two of them reassumed their stances once again and prepared to take a strike with their last two chances. Suddenly, Evelyn thought of a problem and said, "Wait a minute. What if we both get the same scores?" Then, Marty said, "It doesn't matter. We'll compete for another round. The one who misses the hole loses." After t
Evelyn glared at him with resentment. "How dare you!" Marty smiled and touched the corner of her mouth, saying, "Sorry, I couldn't hold back my excitement. I'll take you to see a doctor later." When she heard she needed to see the doctor, Evelyn couldn't help blushing again. She gnashed her teeth and exclaimed, "Shut up! I won't go. You can go on your own." Her look of anger did not seem to be angry at all. Instead, she looked a little coy. Marty felt that the temptation that he had suppressed so hard had reappeared. In order not to do anything out of line again, Marty quickly changed the subject. "We'll go back this afternoon. Is there somewhere else you'd like to go? I will accompany you." Evelyn thought for a while. In fact, it was rare for her to have a day off. So she just decided to stay in her room and sleep. Furthermore, she was still sore all over her body as a result of what Marty had done to her the night before. As
Clarissa took out her phone and looked at it. She couldn't help frowning. Evelyn asked, "What's wrong?" "Nothing. I'll take a call. You can go ahead and try it on first," Clarissa replied. Then, Evelyn nodded and watched her walk out of the store to answer the phone. Afterward, she went into the fitting room. Clarissa went outside to pick up the phone. Jara's voice came from the other side. "Maxi, I have something to ask you for help. Are you free to talk now?" Right after, Clarissa frowned and expressed her displeasure, saying, "Jara, I thought we had stopped contacting each other a long time ago. I don't think you should call me right now to ask for help." Upon hearing this, Jara did not get upset; instead, he chuckled. "Come on, don't say no so soon. Listen to what I have to say first. Since I have come to you, you can rest assured that it's not something that only benefits me." When Clarissa heard that, she went quiet.
Evelyn would never have imagined that the relationship between Charlotte and Sue was like this. Clint did not sit with them, and it was most likely because he did not think it was fitting. Besides, he did not have a common topic to talk about with them. So, he ordered a cup of cold drinks for himself and sat aside. At first, Evelyn thought it was strange. However, when she saw how Sue did not say anything else, she felt it was inconvenient for her to question further. "Does Mrs. Blaine know about your return this time?" she asked, a small frown on her face. Sue stared blankly for a moment as though she had not expected the question. She also did not appear to have considered this question. After a moment of silence, she said, "Probably not." If Charlotte knew, she would undoubtedly hate Sue. After all, Sue had once promised Charlotte to leave this place, leave that guy, and never return. Yet, she broke her promise. She did not
Only then did Sue nod. She raised her head, looked at Evelyn with some regret, and said softly, "I'm sorry, Miss Hussain. I am not feeling well and need to rest." Evelyn said with a smile, "It's fine. I'm going back anyway." After a pause, she then went on to say, "What is the matter with your health? My mom was also sick before, so I took her to Flaucford for treatment. That's why I know many good doctors. If there is any need, I can introduce them to you." Sue gave a gentle smile and shook her head. "No, it's fine. It has been a long time and is incurable." As she spoke, she turned to look at Clint. "Let's go, Clint." Clint nodded, helped her to her feet, and then walked out. Evelyn watched them as they left for a long time before getting up and leaving. However, not long after she left, an incident occurred. In the parking lot downstairs of the mall, Sue and Charlotte ran into each other. At that time, Clint went to g
That night, Buckley was acutely conscious that something was wrong with Charlotte's mood when he returned home. Her face was gloomy as if something serious had happened. Since his two sons had moved out, only he could enrage her. Only he could provoke her if she was angered. After all, Charlotte wouldn't be so irritated by the servants even if they made any mistakes. She was quite tolerant in this aspect. Besides, if the servants made any mistakes, Charlotte would just say a few words. At worst, she would punish them. She would never keep a sullen face because of this. Buckley could not help but sigh as he thought about it. When he changed his shoes at the door, he had already recalled everything he had done today. However, after a while, he could not come up with anything. He went to work this morning and spent the rest of the day there. Besides, he did not even call or meet her. By right, there should be no chance to irritate her.
"Now, I'm the one asking you. Just tell me honestly about your dad's whereabouts in the past few days." "I'm warning you. I will not let you off the hook if you lie to me." Roland burst out laughing when he heard these words. "Mom, how old are you? Do you still not trust my dad?" His speech was tinged with laughter. As soon as Charlotte heard this, she immediately became enraged. "Roland! What is your stance? What do you know? Tell me now!" Hearing Charlotte's roar, Roland didn't dare to make fun of her anymore, so he told her all about Buckley's schedule in the past few days. Charlotte could not help but frown when she learned he went out to socialize several times during the day. "Who did he go out to have a meal?" Roland explained helplessly, "Mom, he went to see the person in charge of the strategic program's international service. We have to entertain him since he and dad have been friends for a long time, right? So we ha
In the comment section, a large number of old fans appeared almost instantly. It was apparent that many had forgotten what had happened 26 years before. After all, people would slowly forget the things they once cherished as time passed. Those videos and pictures, on the other hand, were legitimate. Even after twenty-six years, they were still stunning, moving people's hearts. All of them stared at the videos as if they had been transported back in time twenty-six years. The young and lively girl stood on the stage, radiating her positive energy, as well as all of the world's warmth and joy. In the comments section, people began to express how much they missed Sue. Meanwhile, some new viewers who were unaware of the situation were puzzled after reading everyone's comments. Some even thought that it was staged to attract publicity. Perhaps it was an old artist who wished to resume his or her career. However, after seeing the performa
"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
