Isabella is repeatedly ignored, and her feelings can be imagined. Watching Lewis being very patient with his grandmother, chatting and laughing, Isabella couldn't help but say with red eyes, "Son, what do you want your mother to do? I think about you in every possible way, but no matter what I do, you don't appreciate it. We are mother and son, but we're like enemies. If it weren't for your grandmother, would you even come back to this home?"Upon hearing this, Lewis's face instantly darkened, and he coldly looked at Isabella, saying, "Mom, I've told you many times, my business doesn't need you to interfere. You're managing too much.""You are my son. If I don't care about you, who will? I'm doing all of this for your own good..."The words "for your own good" directly froze Lewis's expression.The chill emanating from Lewis was enough to make people shudder.Isabella instinctively swallowed the rest of her words.Grandma, like a child, tugged at Lewis's sleeve, and Lewis immediately
Love needs to be expressed with words, not hidden or concealed.Judy bravely expressed her feelings, enjoying and expressing love during the honeymoon phase.She likes him, can't live without him, and expresses it openly and boldly.She loves freely and can afford to lose.Judy's words made Lewis feel great, and he kissed her forehead. His gaze fell on her bare neck, and he asked, "Didn't you wear a necklace when you went out today?""Let's not talk about it." Judy opened her eyes, and her drowsiness gradually faded. "The daughter of our company's chairman came today, saw the necklace on my neck, and asked me to take it off. I have no idea where I offended her. Maybe she was just in a bad mood."Judy didn't want to bring this up, but since Lewis asked, she shared it with him.Upon hearing that Amelia was giving Judy a hard time, Lewis furrowed his eyebrows. "If you're not happy there, come back to Caler Group and be my secretary."Judy looked at him and chuckled, "In your dreams! Bein
The arrival of the grandmother not only surprised Judy but also left Perona and Amelia stunned.The fact that the grandmother knew Judy was even more surprising to the two.How did she know Judy?Perona immediately got up and went over: "Aunt, why are you here?"Judy was puzzled. Was the grandmother here to see Perona?What kind of background did this old lady have, to know their chairman?The grandmother kept holding Judy's hand, saying, "You're Perona. I came to see my granddaughter-in-law. Your daughter is so beautiful, and I like Amelia. I came to ask when Amelia will marry my grandson. I want to hold a great-grandchild."Judy then realized that the grandmother had mistaken her for someone else.Perona also realized that the grandmother's dementia had struck again, and she had mistaken Judy for someone else.Perona explained, "Aunt, this is not my daughter. She is my employee, and that one over there is my daughter, Amelia."Perona motioned for Amelia to come over and greet the gr
Amelia was already unhappy with Judy, and now she heard her mother compare her to Judy, and that she wasn't as good as Judy, which made her even more uncomfortable."How could you side with an outsider over me, Mom? I didn't come back to you until I was 15. I lacked maternal love when I was young. I also want to be outstanding, but no one took care of me back then, and no one let me study properly. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had to buy my degree and be laughed at behind my back," Amelia said, deliberately bringing up the pain of losing her when she was young, which was Perona's biggest regret. Whenever this topic was brought up, Perona would feel guilty and would comply with Amelia's every wish.This time was no exception.Seeing Amelia's aggrieved expression, Perona felt very distressed: "Amelia, it's my fault for not taking good care of you when you were young. I didn't protect you, which is why you had such a hard time. In my eyes, you are the best. You are my daughter. Who dares t
Lewis slowly unfastened his cufflinks and rolled up his shirt sleeves, revealing his strong arms, which were very impressive.Even Louis, as a man, envied him.Lewis was wearing a dark shirt, which made him look tall and lean. Through the thin shirt, one could feel the power and charm emanating from his muscles and the maturity of a man.Louis sat on the sofa and asked, "When are you planning to make your relationship public?""Not in a hurry," Lewis replied. "Let nature take its course."As he spoke, Lewis sent a message to Judy, informing her that he needed to entertain clients and wouldn't be able to return for dinner that night.Louis peered over, surprised: "Boss, do you still need to report to Judy?"This was something Louis couldn't do. He had been in several relationships, and the longest one hadn't lasted more than six months.Lewis put away his phone and said, "This is called being responsible and responsive to everything."Louis: "..."...At Meike Group, Judy received the
The man and woman in the house turned out to be John's biological parents?Judy was surprised. When did they come? She didn't even know about it."Hello, I'm Judy, John's friend."Judy introduced herself first. She didn't want to say much because she didn't know what was going on.The two people just glanced at Judy and didn't say anything.Susan took a mop and cleaned up the spit. She said, "Uncle, can you spit in the trash next time and wrap it in tissue paper? It's not hygienic."The man was unhappy and said, "What's not hygienic about it? In my hometown, everyone does it. It's just you city folks being pretentious."Susan dared not speak out and angrily cleaned up. She then went to the bathroom.Judy awkwardly stood there. She regained her senses and took the groceries to the kitchen. She wanted to ask Susan what was going on. At that moment, she heard a man's voice from John's bedroom, "Mom, Mom."The woman who was in the living room immediately went to the bedroom. Then Judy hea
John led Judy downstairs and stammered for a long time before explaining everything clearly to her."My parents, they came a few days ago..."Judy listened quietly as John described that his father was named Aaron, his mother was Scarlett, and his paralyzed brother was Andrew.John's parents were rural and worked on the farm, living off the land.John's brother Andrew had an accident a few years ago on a construction site. He became paralyzed from the waist down and was unable to take care of himself. The construction site didn't pay compensation because Andrew had been drinking before he started working, which was considered a personal behavior.After Andrew became paralyzed, his wife left him, leaving a five-year-old daughter, Zoey, who is still in her hometown attending kindergarten. When they came to the city, they didn't bring Zoey.Aaron and Scarlett brought Andrew to the city mainly to ask John to help pay for the medical expenses.After listening to John's story, Judy asked, "
Aaron has been in the city for just a few days, but he already doesn't want to go back. The years of bearing the medical expenses of his son have crushed his back.Now that someone is helping to share the load, he definitely won't let go.Scarlett hesitated, but Aaron coldly said, "Think about Andrew. Who will take care of him when we're old? Think about Zoey. What can we earn? With all our illnesses, we'll have to depend on John in the future. He's earning more in the big city, so it's easier for him to support us than for us to support ourselves. We gave birth to him, so he should take care of us."Scarlett didn't say anything more.Downstairs,John has already smoked several cigarettes. He can't suppress the anxiety in his heart without smoking.He also had a tough day at work and got scolded by his boss."Judy, you should go home. You don't have to worry about me. I'm fine." John forced a smile and said, "There's nothing big. Money can be earned again. My parents and my elder brot
