The villagers gathered around the bonfire in groups, flipping the sizzling whole lamb on the grill and sprinkling it with cumin and spices non-stop. After a good roast over the open flame, the entire square was practically enveloped in the aroma of barbecue.Tina couldn't stand the gloomy expression on her boss anymore, so she ran over to squeeze in beside Shirley.With a mournful face, Tina said, "It's over, my plan to snag hot guys tonight is ruined."Shirley chuckled lightly.This Stanford guy dislikes her, but seems that he cares much about Tina...Interesting! After Tina dashed away, Stanford looked around and, not seeing Lillian, immediately called her over with a phone call.How could we have such an occasion without Lillian?She needs to be around Keith more often!How can they build a relationship if they're not together often?Shirley never expected Lillian to show up.When she saw Lillian's tearful eyes, she instinctively glanced at Keith.Keith shook his head, saying noth
Keith never expected that when he got on the RV, instead of the wine Stanford prepared for him, he was faced with Lillian's open arms.At that moment, he felt a bit disappointed in Stanford.Lillian stepped forward, hugging Keith, rubbing her cheek against his chest.She could hear Keith's heartbeat, but the anticipated rapid heartbeat didn't happen.How was it possible?She was standing naked in front of him, how could he resist?Shirley was pregnant now and couldn't make love with him, wasn't he uncomfortable?She had already taken the initiative to this extent, wasn't that enough?Lillian then tiptoed, trying to kiss Keith first.Her carefully made-up face was radiant, lips slightly parted seductively."Keith, tonight I am yours. No matter how you treat me, I will be without complaints!" As Lillian got closer, her lips inches away from Keith's tightly pressed ones.There was a determined look in Lillian's eyes.As long as she had sex with Keith, Shirley would become insignificant!
Tonight's bonfire party was a mix of joy and tears.But of course, Shirley belonged to the joyous category. Throughout the party, she was the happiest one playing.The villagers had such an intense liking for Shirley that it made everyone else envious.After changing clothes and trying to join the villagers, Lillian, seeing how popular Shirley was, felt intensely jealous.She just couldn't understand why Shirley was so well-liked in this Village?Wasn't she pregnant now?Her figure was starting to show signs of pregnancy, and she couldn't overly enhance her appearance.Why was such a woman still so popular?Lillian always had a certain pride in her own beauty.Don't men like delicate, teary-eyed girls?Keith used to love her a lot, but now why...How could Lillian have known that the former carefree Keith, with a harmonious family, had naturally become a bit jaded, and growing up alongside her from childhood, that's why he loved a woman like her? Putting aside her six years of absenc
On the other side, Stanford reached out and grabbed Tina's arm, furrowing his brows, "Tina, can you listen to my explanation, please?"Tina shook off Stanford's hand, deliberately smiling unabashedly, "Boss, are you kidding me? You're thirty years old, isn't it normal to have women around you? Your good buddy Keith is about to become a dad, I can understand your urgency too!"Last night, Tina avoided.In the morning, Tina was cold towards Stanford.Stanford finally lost his temper.The calmer Tina appears, the more unsettled she actually is.After knowing Tina for so many years, how could Stanford not understand her little temper?Before Stanford could speak, Tina had already turned and left, not at all planning to listen to his explanation.At that moment, Lillian slowly walked up to Stanford, watching Tina's departure with a hint of satisfaction in her eyes.Why was Tina so close to Shirley?It was to make her upset!Lillian contained her eyes, looking at Stanford with a pitiful exp
After a busy day, things finally settled down.The village chief was hosting tonight.So, everyone went to the village chief's house early with gifts.As Shirley walked in, she saw several local girls in traditional clothes welcoming her with big smiles."Esteemed guest, please have a drink as a token of my heart and my intentions, will you accept?" The charming girls sang as they handed Shirley the drink.Keith furrowed his brows slightly as Shirley was pregnant and couldn't drink.Shirley, however, accepted the drink with a smile, taking a sip to show respect.The girls were delighted, bowing to Shirley and singing, "A drink at the door, the distinguished guest must stay. Inviting guests through mountains and rivers, true feelings, and fine wine in the heart. Two esteemed guests, please come in..."Shirley nodded with a smile and followed Keith inside.The others following behind Shirley and Keith were also treated the same way.Tina, influenced by Stanford, took the drink handed by
"You..." Lillian didn't expect Tina to be so indifferent towards Stanford, and a look of extreme pity flashed across her face as she gazed at Tina, as if Tina's lack of interest in Stanford was a heinous crime.Hmm, this woman was truly contradictory!She flaunted her close relationship with Stanford on the one hand, but on the other hand, felt heartbroken because Tina didn't care about Stanford."There is one thing I need to clarify," Tina said slowly to Lillian. "You think I don't like you because of Shirley? No, no, no, you think too highly of yourself! In my eyes, you haven't earned that privilege. I may not like Keith because of Shirley, but I don't like you because of Shirley. I just don't like you myself!"When Tina said this, not only was Lillian stunned, but Shirley was also surprised.This was the first time Tina had been so blunt about disliking someone.It seemed like Tina was truly angry."Tina! How can you say such things to Lillian!" Stanford's voice suddenly rang out f
Camille looked at Shirley and then at Keith in the distance, seeming a bit hesitant, but ultimately didn't say anything.The banquet was ruined for Shirley and Tina, both tasted nothing but bitterness.Back at the banquet, Shirley exchanged a glance with Tina, and both saw a sense of desolation in each other's eyes.The man they both loved, bewitched by the same woman...When Keith returned to his seat, he keenly noticed Shirley's off mood."Shirley, what's wrong?" Keith reached out and held Shirley's hand.Shirley couldn't help but think about when Lillian hugged Keith earlier, and Keith had touched Lillian's head.It grossed her out.Shirley clenched her fingers and forcefully pulled her hand away from Keith's palm.Keith's eyes narrowed for a moment.If he still didn't realize that Shirley was upset, then he must be a fool.But didn't she just go to the bathroom?What's wrong with her?Did she just see him holding Lillian earlier?But it was Lillian who hugged him first, not him hu
No one expected Mrs. Nelson, who had been recuperating in France for years, to suddenly return to the country.Even more unexpected was that Mrs. Nelson did not fly directly to the old mansion in City T, but directly landed in City F.Keith already had a vague sense of unease in his heart.He always felt that his mother's return this time was for Shirley.He had finally had a good relationship with Shirley. If his mother intervened in his relationship with Shirley as soon as she returned, then Shirley...The doctor had informed Keith before that pregnant women often tend to overthink, especially prone to anxiety.This symptom is called prenatal anxiety disorder.Although Shirley spoke very little, she was a strong person.If she got caught between her mother and Lillian, it might not be good for her.Keith didn't want Shirley to go out with Tina originally, but now he felt that Shirley temporarily avoiding his mother might be a good choice.After successfully resolving the project iss
