Shirley's body tensed up!Who was this?How did he know the whereabouts of her grandmother?Didn't the police fail to find her grandmother?And how would he know that she had been asking about her grandmother's whereabouts?Wait a minute, if he knew who it was, he must have also found out about what happened at her home.It wouldn't be surprising if they knew that Robert Wright died at her grandmother's hands.Shirley hesitated for a moment. Even if they were trying to deceive her, she had to find out the truth.She really wanted to know where her grandmother had gone.At her age, where could she have escaped to?But why couldn't the authorities find her?There was only one possibility, she had been hidden by someone!Shirley quickly replied to the message: Where?"Look up. Come to the top deck." The message came back promptly.Shirley was taken aback. Just as she was about to tell Camille and the others, another message arrived: Come alone. Don't let anyone know.Shirley gritted her
Shirley looked up in alarm, but only had time to feel the man's breath suddenly hitting her face.Her cheeks flushed as the unintentional ice cream smear on her cheek was already licked clean by him."Wow, so sweet," a rich voice sounded softly in Shirley's ear.Shirley's cheeks instantly turned crimson.She didn't know if he was referring to the sweet ice cream or her cheeks...Shirley felt her mind go blank, not knowing what to do at all.She had never encountered anything like this before!Never!Even with Keith, he had never been so forward with her!But this ambiguous situation now, it was indeed the first time she had encountered it!Finally, Shirley's eyes met the gaze of the other person.What a gaze it was!Full of allure, tenderness, indulgence, dominance...This gaze was so full of ultimate attractiveness that Shirley forgot to look away.But why did that eerie sense of familiarity sweep over her heart again?Shirley swallowed hard, trying to hide her embarrassment.The dis
The three lying on the deck chairs all sat up and turned around, only to see two figures hurrying towards them from afar.The leader was none other than Lillian!How did she get here?Shirley frowned. This was an internal event of Herman Company. What was her identity here? How did Lillian know she was on the boat?Following behind Lillian was none other than Stanford, who had always supported Lillian.Tina didn't expect Stanford to follow along. She immediately muttered a curse under her breath, straightened up, and turned to leave. But Stanford blocked her path, forcing her to face him."Sorry, this isn't the office, so please step aside," Tina's voice turned frosty. "We've said everything that needs to be said. Please don't stop me."With a hint of weariness on his face, Stanford sighed as he saw Tina's anger. "Tina, we need to talk. Things aren't as you think.""No need," Tina said icily. "I don't want to talk, and I don't want to see you.""But I want to talk," Stanford insisted,
Camille reached out and touched the scratches on her neck from Lillian's attack. Her gaze remained calm as she gently countered for Shirley, "Interesting, very interesting, Lillian. Even with your skillful twisting of words, shouldn't you still aim for fairness?""Back then, when did Shirley willingly marry Keith? Wasn't it the Nelson family forcing Shirley to marry Keith? How did it become Shirley pressuring the Nelson family in your words?""Back then, Shirley wanted to leave, to start anew and not disturb your dirty schemes. But you, Lillian, came all this way to humiliate Shirley in front of so many people, even trying to falsely accuse her! When you begged Shirley, the legal wife, to spare you, the ex-girlfriend, I happened to record it. Shall we review that moment?""You said you and Keith knew each other first, which is true. But you've been apart for six years. Does Keith have to stay unmarried and childless just because of an ex-girlfriend? Lillian, where does this confidence
Seeing the wound on Camille's neck, Shirley felt deeply apologetic. She quickly took Camille back to the room and fetched the medicine kit to treat her."Thanks for just now. Otherwise, Lillian might have done something to me," Shirley carefully disinfected Camille's wound and said with moist eyes, "I never expected Lillian to act like a lunatic."Camille just smiled and said, "Keith suddenly leaving without a word must have driven them mad. They assumed you left first and then took Keith with you, using it as a way to protest against them."Shirley replied disdainfully, "It's not surprising they think that way. But where could Keith have gone? He hasn't even contacted me! Whatever, let him go wherever he wants, I don't care anymore! But with Lillian and Stanford on board too, looks like our carefree days are numbered."Camille smiled and said, "If you don't like it, we can just get off the boat. Wherever we go, it's still fun, right?"Shirley shook her head. "I can't leave! I came wi
Shirley had no idea that the situation had changed after she slept for a while.With the help of her assistant, Shirley measured her belly circumference and fetal heart rate, then sent the data to the Moore family and also forwarded a copy to Grandma Nelson. It was something she promised Grandma Nelson she would do. Sending her body data daily on time to reassure Grandma Nelson.The assistant picked out a new set of linen and cotton long skirts for Shirley and loosely braided her long hair into a ponytail, hanging it down her back. The clothes were sent over by Anna early in the morning.Yesterday when they went shopping with Herman, Anna didn't buy much for herself but bought a lot of clothes and comfortable shoes for Shirley.As soon as Shirley opened her eyes, she saw the clothes Anna had bought for her, and she couldn't contain the warmth in her heart."Where are Tina and Camille?" Shirley finished the milk the assistant handed over and gently asked, "Are they up yet?"She still h
Tina had been around since college, so Stanford knew her temperament better than anyone else!She only started distancing him recently.It must be Shirley's doing! Not only did she steal Lillian's boyfriend, but she also deliberately tried to break up him and Tina!This woman, she's truly despicable!With a dark look in his eyes, Stanford said to Lillian, "Lillian, don't worry. No matter the cost, I won't let Shirley stay with Keith! You're right, women like her need to be taught a lesson to understand their place!"Seeing Stanford firmly on her side, Lillian smiled with relief.Shirley felt relieved when she saw Tina coming over safely.For Shirley, as long as Tina was safe, that was enough.Tina's business was hers to hear if Tina wanted to share, and if not, she wouldn't ask.That's how it should be between friends.Respecting each other's personal space is essential.The observation room was spacious, and everyone walked around admiring different underwater views.Under the dazzli
Sure enough, Shirley glared at him angrily. "Nonsense!"Shirley pushed the captain away and turned to leave."Be careful with Lillian, she won't stop." The captain suddenly called out to Shirley's back.Shirley stopped in her tracks.Shirley didn't turn around, her fingers clenched into fists.If he had captured Grandma Wright, he would naturally know about Lillian and her.That wasn't surprising.But what was strange was why he would remind her?Everyone knows how incompatible her relationship with Lillian is.Why did he specially mention this?What did he mean?Was he implying that Lillian would take some action next?Or does he already know something?Why does this man feel so familiar?The more they interact, the stronger this feeling becomes.Damn it, she hasn't interacted with many men, so why does she have this damn familiarity?"Yeah? Thanks for the reminder." Shirley dropped this cold remark and walked away.She couldn't be alone with this man for too long.This man was too s
