Mr. Moore reacted quickly and said immediately, "Mr. Keith has arrived. We can't let such an esteemed guest wait at the door. Let's go and greet him!"Mrs. Moore glanced at Shirley, who shook her head at Mrs. Moore, indicating she didn't know Keith was coming either.Keith showed up in very formal attire, leading a whole convoy.As for why a convoy? Well, those who wanted to see Keith just tagged along!Keith straight up told everyone he was here to pick up his wife from the Moore family.Whether he was to meet them or not was up to his wife's decision.So, this crowd followed.Keith got out of the car and waited, making everyone else too nervous to stay inside.So when Shirley and Mr. and Mrs. Moore finally came out, they were startled by the scene before them!There was a massive crowd at the door, surrounding Keith like he was the center of the universe.What was he doing bringing all these people to the Moore family?Shirley was taken aback.So was Tina. This wasn't Keith's usual
"Let go of me! What are you doing?" Shirley struggled, but her strength was no match for Keith's.In her panic, tears welled up in Shirley's eyes as she choked out, "Keith, you jerk!"Hmm, yes, Tony said just let her curse it out! Once she does, she won't be mad anymore!Keith silently thought to himself.Shirley kept pounding on Keith's chest, but her feeble efforts were like tickling him."Don't cry, it hurts me," Keith blurted out when he saw the tears in Shirley's eyes.Shirley was stunned, completely bewildered.The next moment, Keith suddenly lowered his head and gently kissed away the tears on Shirley's face.His movements were gentle, as if Shirley in his arms was a fragile doll that would break with too much force...Shirley raised her gaze and fell into his deep, tender eyes.Why were his eyes so gentle at this moment... so caring?But if he truly cared for her, why did he rekindle his old flame with Lillian?Right, he was just... hmm... what was he trying to do...Keith's k
Keith didn't expect Shirley to ask such a question.Wasn't it obvious?She was his wife, someone important to him, someone he wanted to protect.Was there even a need to answer such a question?Keith remembered what Tony said, that when a girl feels insecure, she'll ask a man if he loves her...Did she feel insecure?Raising an eyebrow, Keith began, "Of course I don't..."Before Keith could finish his sentence, his phone in his pocket started ringing.Taking out his phone and seeing the caller ID, Keith said to Shirley, "I have to take this call."With that said, Keith turned and left.Shirley lowered her eyes, a sarcastic smile playing on her lips.What did he just say?Of course, he doesn't... Of course, he doesn't what? Of course, he doesn't love her?Yeah, why would he love her?She didn't have Rose's figure or Lillian's looks.Keith, who had been showered with endless love, worth billions, inheriting trillions, why would he have any reason to love her?Haha... what a fool she was
Shirley woke up and realized it was already past four in the afternoon.Hmm, she could really sleep.Oh right, that big sleeping bag she was hugging...Shirley lifted her head and saw that handsome and charming face.Asleep, Keith lacked some of his dominance and arrogance.Perfectly refined features, flawless skin with no visible pores, clear eyebrows, and neat features.High-bridged nose, rounded nose tip, just the right curvature of thin lips.Just perfectly beautiful.Shirley waved her hand in front of Keith's eyes. Hmm, still not awake?Shirley's gaze fell on Keith's ears again.Such beautiful ears.Shirley couldn't help but reach out and gently pinch his earlobe.Wow, it felt so good!Truly enviable!Shirley didn't know what came over her. She lifted her head and instinctively took a bite of the round earlobe...Wow, the taste was really good.Satisfied, Shirley let go of Keith and saw a stack of invitations on the table, remembering what Keith had said.He said she was already
Miss Lucy was somewhat of a rich kid locally. She could handle any situation calmly. But when she stood in front of Shirley, she was almost scared witless.Susan! She... she's still alive?Shirley smiled and said, "Miss Lucy, please don't misunderstand. I just want to hear about Susan from you."Only then did Miss Lucy slowly come to her senses.Huh? What did she say? She's not Susan?Oh my god! This is too much!Mrs. Turner then eagerly introduced Shirley's identity to Miss Lucy and told her what Shirley wanted to know.Miss Lucy shook off her daze and slowly began, "Yes, Susan and I were indeed classmates in college, but we weren't in the same department. We only got to know each other slowly during a club activity. Susan did say such things. At first, I thought she was... being fanciful...""Could you elaborate?" Shirley asked with great interest.Whether it was someone from the Moore family or Rupert, they all seemed reluctant to say much.But Miss Lucy was different; she was trul
Shirley turned around and saw a woman with twelve-inch high heels, a revealing outfit, and a voluptuous figure cursing angrily as she strode over."I want to know who dared to hit my dog! Mrs. Flores, we've always been civil, why did you hit my dog?" The woman, hands on hips, wore a furious expression, her finger almost poking Mrs. Flores's nose!Shirley pulled back with the others, watching the situation unfold.Mrs. Flores's face immediately turned pale, but she quickly fired back, "Crystal Morris, who do you think you are? You've offended today's distinguished guest. Let's see how you explain yourself!"Crystal Morris? Shirley pondered for a moment and immediately remembered.This vicious woman was the actress who played the third female lead in a palace drama, Crystal, wasn't she?She actually lived next door?On TV, she seemed delicate and fragile, but in reality, her demeanor was simply unbearable.Shirley noticed a hint of restraint mixed with a smirk on Mrs. Flores's face.Shi
At that moment, her assistant Alan called, informing her that she had received the rabies vaccine at the hospital. But she still needed to get a few more shots.Shirley looked at the photo Alan sent, the wound deep enough to see bone.Shirley couldn't help but gasp!Thinking of Alan getting hurt for her, and then thinking of Crystal's despicable face, Shirley couldn't stay calm as a bystander any longer.Even though she knew today she had been used by Mrs. Flores, she needed to vent her frustration.She had been suffocating these past few days, and there was no reason to continue suffocating in this matter!There's a saying: if you don't die in silence, you'll explode in silence!Shirley didn't want to die; she wanted to explode!"Aging and fading away?" Shirley walked out slowly, her gaze icy as she looked at Crystal. "Do you think you're so young?"Crystal didn't expect Mrs. Flores to remain silent, and this young pregnant woman took the initiative.No worries, she was just a nobody
"You said I was nouveau riche, right? Yeah, I'm nouveau riche! So what? Enjoying the feeling of being slapped in the face by nouveau riche?" Shirley let out all her anger from the depths of her heart.She fiercely hurled handfuls of money at Crystal's face and body.Cash was scattered all over the ground.Crystal wanted to resist, but as soon as she caught Keith's threatening gaze, she shivered with fear!She dared not!Even though Keith didn't say a word, just one icy glare from him made Crystal feel frozen all over!A thought gradually formed in her mind: Oh, no, she had offended a big shot! This big shot must not be from City F, but from outside!Sure enough, more and more people confirmed Crystal's speculation.Rupert quickly arrived with his people.As soon as he arrived, his gaze fell on Shirley, who was sweating from throwing money.Shirley had already vented almost all her anger, and the rage in her heart had gradually subsided."Sorry, I'm late." Rupert apologized to Shirley
