Shirley smiled.

Camille sighed lightly, elegantly propping her chin with one hand as she looked at Shirley and said softly, "Perhaps I shouldn't say this, but I really want to thank you for being here. Susan's departure has hit us all hard, and although I know you're not Susan, seeing you healthy and alive gives me the illusion that Susan is still alive."

"My presence can give you comfort, finally not wasting this face." Shirley smiled and said.

As their words trailed off, the two exchanged a smile.

Unlike Tina's seductiveness, Camille had a slender figure, always giving off a delicate vibe.

Perhaps because Camille liked Susan, and Susan was a typical fragile beauty, so Camille subconsciously followed this pattern?

Camille had many dishes sent to their table and insisted Shirley didn't need to get up, serving her some food herself.

"If it doesn't suit your taste, just let me know. There are over a hundred dishes prepared for tonight's banquet, plus dozens of flavors of desserts and fr

    As soon as Keith left, Camille dropped the other guests and came back to accompany Shirley.Shirley felt guilty seeing Camille prioritizing her over her other friends."Camille, I'm a bit tired. Can we find a place to rest for a while? It's too noisy here, not suitable for me," Shirley intentionally said, not wanting to keep Camille tied to her and affecting her conversations with others.Camille immediately replied with a smile, "Of course we can. Although everyone's conversations are not loud, it does get a bit noisy with so many people. How about resting in my room? It's probably the quietest place.""Alright," Shirley nodded.Shirley stood up from her seat, and her assistant, Alan, quickly followed and accompanied them to Camille's room."The Davis Family is really generous! In this location in T City, it's not something you can buy just because you have money," Shirley couldn't help but exclaim, "I heard that when this villa was bought by a mysterious person some time ago, it cau

    As soon as Camille heard Gloria's voice, she walked in and saw Shirley sitting with Gloria.Camille looked helpless and said to Shirley, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect Ms. Gloria to..."Shirley gently shook her head. "It's alright."Gloria said to Camille, "You didn't want me to come to your room because Miss Shirley was here, right? Camille, I'm sorry, I was in a hurry. Previously, I used to come directly to your room to wait for you, but this time I didn't think..."Shirley felt that the atmosphere in the room was strange, and she seemed to be the cause of all the problems. So she had to step up and resolve the situation."Alright, I really don't mind at all. Don't let my presence ruin your relationship with each other." Shirley smiled and said, "I'm quite happy chatting with Ms. Gloria here. Camille, I even have to thank this misunderstanding. Otherwise, I would have been bored here reading alone, and my assistant isn't good at making conversation."Shirley's assistant silently took t

    Shirley had no idea why Keith suddenly went crazy. She struggled hard but realized she couldn't break free from Keith's grip."What's gotten into you? Keith, let go!" Shirley shouted, "You let go, you're hurting me!"In the past, if Keith had heard Shirley say that, he would have let go.But at that moment, his brain was consumed by anger, caring little about whether Shirley would be in pain or not.That photo...It was a picture of Shirley intimately embracing William!Could it mean that while she appeared to be loyal to Keith, she had reconciled with William behind his back?Shirley!How dare you!No woman in this world has ever dared to play me!You're the first!Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you're carrying the heir of the Nelson family?"From today onwards, Madam is to stay indoors due to ill health," Keith almost squeezed out these chilling words from between his teeth.Shirley was shocked!What did he just say?Stay indoors?He wanted to confine her?Wh

    Shirley gently stroked her belly without answering Tina's question, but she smiled softly. "Tina, you should be able to sense that I've always felt distant from everything here. It's to avoid feeling attached when the time comes to leave.""Yes, I can feel it," Tina said, staring intently at Shirley. "I can sense it, and Keith... he must have sensed it too, right?"Shirley didn't answer that question.Whether Keith sensed it or not didn't seem important anymore.He had returned to Rose's side. Rose repeatedly used her and finally achieved her goals.Oh well, no point in digging into it anymore.Consider it repaying nearly twenty years of friendship with this act of kindness.From now on, Shirley and Rose would have no connection.But thinking about how Rose repeatedly used and retaliated against her, Shirley suddenly felt foolish.If Tina hadn't told her the truth, she might have continued to be deceived...Doesn't matter anymore...If she chose to leave the Nelson family and Keith, s

    Shirley nodded and ignored Rose, turning back into the house.As soon as Shirley entered, a maid brought a glass of juice to her. Before Shirley could reach out to take it, Rose snatched it away and drank it all in a gulp.Janet and the maid were shocked by Rose's behavior! Such shamelessness!"This juice is good, I like it!" Rose handed the empty glass back to the maid and said, "I have high demands for my quality of life. You better work well, otherwise, your job is at risk! I'm a bit tired now, where is Keith's room? I want to rest!"What? She wants to go to her room? Even if Shirley has a good temper, she can't hold it in anymore."Rose, do you need to explain your medical case to me?" Shirley said coldly, "Aren't you supposed to be in the hospital for your cancer? Why did you come here instead?""Aha..." Rose immediately stood in front of Shirley, brushing away Shirley's messy hair, and whispered in her ear, "You're so dumb, aren't you? I keep betraying you over and over again, a

    Keith seemed surprised to see Shirley there as well. Before he could say anything, Rose came stumbling out of the study.Shirley glanced at Rose, whose clothes could hardly be called clothes anymore – she might as well have been naked."I didn't..." Keith started to explain when he saw Rose, but for some reason, he felt a panic rising within him.However, before he could finish his sentence, Shirley interrupted with a calm and unaffected voice, "I'm sorry for eavesdropping on your little activities. I just felt a bit thirsty and wanted to go downstairs for a glass of water. Please continue!"After saying those words, Shirley turned around to leave.But her actions completely infuriated Keith.He quickly strode forward, grabbing Shirley's wrist with a strong grip, forcefully dragging her back to the bedroom. He kicked the door shut with a bang!"What are you trying to do?!" Shirley struggled, but Keith was much stronger, and she was no match for him.After struggling for a while, Shirl

    Shirley's fingers trembled gently. Her gaze instantly softened.What does he mean by this?Did he think... that the person who held him in the study was her? And that's why Rose almost succeeded? And that's why he hurriedly left the study in a mess?Then... who was he with during this week that he didn't come back?He said he didn't touch Rose. So, can she trust him?Wait. Whether he touched Rose or not, what does that have to do with her?She and Keith were just... fake husband and wife under a contract. She had no right to care about whether he touched other women or not.However, she couldn't suppress the surging joy in her heart.Shirley unbuttoned all the buttons, and Keith's incredibly attractive upper body came into her view.Shirley couldn't help but stare for three seconds, discreetly swallowing her saliva.

    Rose had been eavesdropping on the commotion in the adjacent room all along.Ever since Keith angrily smashed the cabinet mirror, Rose had been filled with anticipation.In her view, since Keith and Shirley were having such a big fight, Keith definitely wouldn't sleep with Shirley tonight!Then she could pretend to comfort Keith tenderly, and under his emotional gratitude, they would surely end up sleeping together!As long as she succeeded in that, one of Rose's feet would officially step into the Nelson family's gate.But Rose waited and waited for a long time.She waited until everyone finished making a fuss, and still, Keith didn't come to her room seeking solace.How could this be happening?Why did everything suddenly become so weird?Shirley, what kind of witchcraft did you use to make Keith so devoted to you?I refuse to accept this!

    Keith returned the Moore family, which he had previously acquired, back to them intact. He signed an agreement with Old Mrs. Moore, stating that the Nelson Family Group would annually provide free financial support to all industries under the Moore family and their research institute in Indonesia.At the same time, Keith ramped up collaboration with the Davis Family Group to compensate for the assistance and sacrifices their ancestors had made for the Moore family.Finally, Old Mrs. Moore let go of her prejudices and the so-called ancestral rule, stopped forcing Shirley to marry Rupert, and accepted Keith as her grandson-in-law.Keith, full of vigor, led Shirley back to the room, eager to explain everything to her.But before Keith could speak, Shirley's face suddenly turned pale, and she collapsed against Keith.Keith's words were swallowed up instantly."Shirley, what's wrong?"

    After stomping out the cigarette butt on the floor, Lillian picked up the cup intending to take a sip, only to find it empty.Anxiously, she put the cup down and paced around the room.This shabby motel was tucked away in a corner of the old town, notorious for its crime and violence.Lillian really didn't want to be here, but she couldn't think of a better option for hiding out.The big hotels required ID registration, and she didn't want to risk being recognized, especially looking as disheveled as she did, with her scruffy appearance.She couldn't even bear to see herself like this, let alone others.This morning, while washing her face, she felt a lump in her throat, a sign that it might protrude again.This discovery made her extremely uneasy.In order to expedite the surgery and achieve the desired effect, she opted for a conservative procedure, leaving part of the Adam's apple intact.In other words, if her testosterone levels rose again, surpassing the estrogen in her body, sh

    Shirley saw the flowers Simon had sent her blooming beautifully, and her mind wandered to the scene of Susan meeting Simon.Then, Shirley couldn't help but sigh.These days, Simon had been quite active in this circle, reminding everyone of Mr. Simon's presence.Hopefully, he could recover smoothly from Susan's death blow soon.Lost in thought, Shirley heard the doorbell ring.Naturally, someone went to open it, while Shirley stayed put.Lately, she noticed she was becoming lazier—moving only when necessary.Soon, Janet came over with a box, smiling as she said to Shirley, "This is from the Smith family, probably more flowers from Mr. Simon."These days, Simon had been sending over many flowers from his greenhouse.Thankfully, they had a dedicated gardener to tend to them, and a large enough greenhouse to store them. Otherwise, there wouldn't be enough space for all these flowers.You see, even a random potted flower would cost tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars!These were all S

    Well, Lillian would if she could!She felt all numb now!She could only look at Evan with pleading eyes, hoping he would spare her considering she had given him her first time.Sure enough, Evan caught Lillian's plea and immediately said, "Hannah, that's enough. You must be tired from all the hitting, be careful of the baby in your stomach."Hannah stopped immediately as Evan spoke.Shirley and Tina were once again speechless in shock.What a nice way Hannah turned things around!Indeed, Hannah must have been tired; hitting someone was physically exhausting!Hannah pointed at Lillian, accusingly saying, "You heartless creature, I considered you my friend, and you slept with my husband!"Shirley touched her nose; why did that line sound so familiar?Despite Lillian being physically numb, her mouth could still talk. However, the voice sounded oddly off."Hannah, do you think I don't know how you got pregnant?" Lillian's face was swollen from Hannah's hits, and coupled with her hoarse vo

    Keith nodded, "You do understand my style and methods. Indeed, anyone who dares to target the Nelson family won't survive more than three days. I spared your life for a reason. You haven't disappointed me; you've smoothly resolved the trouble I wanted to get rid of."Lillian was trembling even more violently, "You...you...""Lillian, you've got some nerve! You actually wanted to lay a finger on the Nelson family's influence in Europe. Should I praise your bravery, or mock your stupidity?" Keith sighed lightly, "You thought getting enough shares would let you meddle in Europe? That's incredibly amusing!"Lillian glared fiercely at Keith, her voice becoming even hoarser, lacking the sweetness and clarity it once had. Instead, it sounded like a cracked drum, extremely grating."If you know everything, then do what you will with me!" Lillian gritted her teeth.Despite her words, her eyes kept drifting towards the door, as if waiting for something.Suddenly, Keith chuckled softly."Why wou

    Lillian heard Monica's words and burst out laughing without reservation!"I'm talking nonsense? Monica, can you swear you haven't fallen for Simon?" A strange flush suddenly rose on Lillian's face, letting the cold wind blow against her, but she felt nothing, turning to look at Monica like this. "Yeah, with this scandal, how could you possibly keep it under wraps? You love Simon so much, you went as far as warning Susan, stirring up trouble with Shirley. But no matter how you cover it up, do you think everyone is a fool?"Monica recoiled in fear, frantically trying to explain, "It's just sibling affection...""Enough, save those lies to deceive yourself, stop pretending in front of me." Lillian continued pressing on: "But, I wonder, how would Simon feel if he knew his adoring little sister, who's been in love with him for over a decade, what would be his state of mind?"Monica finally panicked, reaching out to cover Lillian's mouth, but Lillian slapped Monica's hand away, looking at M

    Lillian's words caused the expressions of those around her to subtly change towards Albert.Many people present knew of Albert's background.Despite various disdain towards Mr. Albert, he was still connected to the Nelson family, an entity not to be crossed.Even if Lillian did not like Albert, she dared not openly confront him.Evan, grinning, approached Shirley, "Oh oh, your second brother was hit, as his sister-in-law, are you really going to remain indifferent?""Let's put aside the question of whether I am his sister-in-law, as the host of today's banquet, are you truly going to stay indifferent in the face of such a drama?" Shirley countered Evan.As Evan hesitated about whether to help, a commotion erupted at the entrance.Shirley followed the crowd's gaze. At the villa's entrance, a Rolls-Royce spun elegantly and parked perfectly.A group of well-trained bodyguards formed two rows, the car door opened, and an impeccably dressed figure leisurely got out.Shirley was speechless

    Following Evan's gaze, Shirley turned around and saw Lillian in a white fur coat, wearing a red form-fitting dress underneath.Lillian walked in with a man in his forties on her arm."Lillian changes her man every time she appears," Tina remarked, crossing her arms. "Evan, did you invite her?"Hearing Tina's disdainful tone, Evan quickly replied, "Come on, why would I invite her? She's just a minor character, and doesn't have the qualifications. But the man next to her might be a potential investor tonight. Shirley, do you remember him?"Shirley looked puzzled at Evan, "Why should I remember him?"Evan smirked mischievously, "Because he's Director Alice's ex-husband!""Pfft..." Shirley and Tina both sprayed out the juice in their mouths!Shirley looked incredulous, "No way? Is Director Alice coming tonight as well?"Evan laughed more maliciously, "Yep, Director Alice will be here too! I wonder what it would be like for her to see her ex-husband attending this party with her actresses.
