You’re mine. Overnight, Bryston was shaken. The dominant heir to a financial empire had now fallen at her feet. To win his wife back, he risked everything—his pride, his life, his heart.

더 보기Leonard immediately let go of Joseph and walked over, saying, "Elianna, are you awake?"She didn't know when she woke up, nor how much of the conversation between the two people she had overheard.Elianna rubbed her temples, clearly feeling a bit of a headache.She instinctively pulled the thin blanket closer to her body, took a brief rest, and the alcohol seemed to sober her up a bit. Naturally, she also realized how disheveled she was at the moment.Elianna knowingly asked, "Was I drunk?"Even if she drank until she was completely drunk, she wouldn't black out. Therefore, as she woke up, she gradually began to recall that she had been drinking and afterwards, she became crazy drunk.Joseph said expressionlessly, "Yes, you were drunk. Originally, I intended to arrange a designated driver to take you home, but who knew your alcohol tolerance was so disappointing. You went crazy at my house and..."He also vomited all over him.
The butler, seeing the situation, immediately rushed over and reached out to stop him, saying, "Mr. Leonard, please wait!"Leonard suddenly angrily waved away the hand he extended, saying, "Get lost!"The butler was dismissed to the side.Leonard climbed up the stairs.Joseph hesitated for a moment and then followed closely behind, going upstairs.Second floor.Leonard saw the servant just coming out of a room, without thinking, he immediately walked over. The servant, seeing this, became somewhat alarmed and asked, "Who are you?"Leonard casually pushed her aside and pushed the door wide open.In the guest room.Elianna was lying in bed, covered with a blanket.Leonard walked over and saw that she was fast asleep, completely unconscious. He furrowed his brows slightly and reached out his hand, intending to lift the blanket.The next secondBehind him, a hand reached out and tightly grabbed his wrist
Joseph carried Elianna into the door.In his arms.Elianna, on the other hand, kept looking up at him with her face raised.Suddenly,She said proudly, "My son grew up and turned out to be so handsome!"Joseph, "..."Elianna, "However, my son was the cutest when he was little!"Joseph, "..."Elianna, "Baby, be good and let mommy give you a kiss quickly."She hooked his shoulders, cradled his face, and kissed him over and over again.Joseph suppressed the anger that filled his chest, but had nowhere to vent it.He was still doubting why she wanted to recognize Zack as her godson and what her true purpose was.Or perhaps, it was just another means for her to get close to him.Was she really drunk and talking nonsense, or was she pretending to be drunk to take advantage of him?If he was really drunk, what could he argue with a drunk woman for?A south-facing room on the second floo
Joseph furrowed his brows.He saw her tongue starting to knot, her eyes wide open but looking misty.Joseph said with a headache, "Sit down and don't move for now."He had just grabbed her shoulders and forcefully made her sit down, but the next second, she "sprang" up again, saying, "I want to go home!"Joseph interrupted her, "I will take you home!"He grabbed her hand and pulled her up.Elianna stumbled and took two steps, her balance wavering as her body leaned backwards.Joseph walked over and grabbed her waist, coldly saying, "Can you walk properly?"Without giving Elianna a chance to answer, he bent his right arm from her waist side and hoisted her onto his shoulder."What were you doing..."The man's strong shoulders were just pressing against her abdomen.Elianna drank alcohol and just finished eating pastas, feeling a bit uncomfortable. Her stomach was being tightly pressed, and she felt a wave of
Elianna asked, "Is the pastas done?"Joseph resealed the wine and said, "Finish your meal quickly, I will have someone take you home.""Oh!"Elianna stood up, and in that moment, her blood flowed and she felt a slight stumble beneath her feet, her body even swaying, as if she was floating lightly.Oh no...She seemed a little tipsy.That's how high-concentration brandy was.She was clearly drinking very slowly, and even added ice cubes to dilute it, but... she had already started to get tipsy.Joseph saw that she was a little unsteady and reached out his hand to support her. "Are you drunk?"Elianna pulled away from his hand, clearly repulsed by his touch. "No! I wasn't drunk."Joseph withdrew his hand and stared at her incredulously.Elianna concealed her drunken state, barely maintaining her balance as she walked towards the dining table. Upon seeing the bowl of pastas placed on the table, she approached
Elvis looked at Joseph awkwardly.Joseph said, "I could only make plain pastas."Elianna said, "Then thank you for your trouble."After speaking, she sat down on the sofa.Joseph said to Elvis, "You go first."Elvis said, "Mr. Kensington, do you need me to lend a hand?"Joseph said, "No need."It's just a bowl of assorted vegetarian pastas, without many complicated steps, just takes some time.What is this called? It is easy to ask for the gods, but difficult to send them away.The "god" he had invited could only be sent away by himself.He could certainly tell that Elianna was deliberately giving him a hard time, but since she had helped him pacify his son, it was also a favor he owed her.Elvis smiled and said, "Alright, I'll go back first. If you have any instructions, feel free to call and contact me anytime."Joseph, "You haven't rested much these past few days, go back and get some sleep early.
Zack said, "Only when Owen and I turn eight years old, can we apply to live with Mommy and Judge Uncle, in order to let that man know the truth?"Elianna nodded, "Yes."Zack nodded hesitantly.Elianna helped him lie back on the bed and gently said, "Once we've eaten, shall we have a good sleep?"Zack became nervous and asked, "Mommy, are you leaving?"Elianna said, "I promised you that you could see me anytime you wanted."Zack's eyes revealed a hint of surprise and delight, "Really?"Elianna, "Really, Mommy promised you."After speaking, she extended her hand and said, "High five."Zack and she high-fived, and then closed their eyes in peace.Elianna didn't stand up and walk out of the door until he fell asleep.Joseph stood at the door.Elianna's heart skipped a beat as she thought Joseph should be downstairs, but suddenly he appeared upstairs out of nowhere. She had no idea how well the door insul
Zack suddenly burst into silly laughter, opened his mouth, wanting to shout "Mommy". However, he didn't have enough strength to even speak, and could only weakly say, "I want to go home..."Elianna's heart trembled for a moment, feeling inexplicably melancholic.On the side, two doctors smiled helplessly and said, "little scion, you are already at home now..."They only thought that the child was extremely hungry, confused in the mind, and started speaking nonsense.Only Elianna could understand which "home" the little one was referring to.Elianna coaxed, "Would you like to eat something?"She saw a bowl of nutritious porridge on the bedside table.I was so hungry that it caused me to be unable to eat properly now, I can only drink a little nutritional porridge.It seems that this time he was determined to sever the father-son relationship with Joseph.Maybe because he had been fasting for a long time, the little guy ha
Elianna suddenly became serious and said, "Well, you shouldn't say such hurtful words either."Owen lowered his head and said in a pitiful tone, "Mommy, I know I was wrong! Next time I see him, I will definitely apologize to him."Elianna patted his little head and said, "You were brothers, good friends, so you couldn't hurt his feelings."Owen nodded obediently, "Mommy, don't worry, I know now! I will never hurt his heart again in the future."Elianna gently embraced him.Owen nestled in her arms and asked, "So... when did that guy come back?"Elianna worriedly said, "I don't know..."She didn't know when they would be able to reunite as mother and son again after this separation.Tristian said, "Nannan, don't overthink so much and rest early."Elianna nodded.The next day.Elianna took Owen back to the Carrington Group.Three days later.She had just left the company and was about to go home
"Joseph, one billion. You can only save one."In a daze, Myla Rutherford heard the kidnappers negotiating over the phone.The warehouse was dark, with no light at all, except for a ventilation window that was only five centimeters wide. Outside, faint shadows of overgrown weeds swayed in the wind.Three days of captivity had brought her to the brink. No food, no water, only despair.Myla’s wrists, bound tightly behind her, throbbed with pain as she desperately widened her eyes.Three days ago, she was abducted. Along with her, Livia Wyndham—the woman Joseph Kensington had adored for a decade—was also kidnapped.The ransom demanded was exorbitant, but the terms cruel. Only one of them could survive: either she or Livia.For some reason, even as Joseph's lawful wife and the mother of his unborn child, Myla felt no confidence against Livia.Why would she?In the year since their wedding, Joseph’s eyes never lingered on her. Perhaps because she was naturally unattractive with the saucer-s...
