She had a sudden impulse, so she briefly explained it to him.So, as I was saying...That night, the child was not Owen, but Zack...Elianna furrowed her brow in frustration and said, "He grew up with his father, so he has an emotional connection with him. Hearing me say that, he is so smart, he must know that his father has hurt his mother, so..."The child was so young and definitely wished to have a complete family, just like other children.But he also knew that his parents couldn't go back anymore. His father had hurt his mother, and she had become disillusioned with him. He didn't want to force his mother to return to his father because of his selfish thoughts.Tyson said with a wry smile, "He also said, wait for three more years. When he turns eight, he can choose to stay with either dad or mom. He wants to go back to mom. He cautiously tested me, asking if, knowing that he is no longer Owen but Zack, would the Carrington family still accept him? Mom... would she still love him
Rigoberto's expression on his face hesitated slightly.He furrowed his brow, pondered for a long time, and then said with difficulty, "It's true."Elianna grabbed his arm and said, "Really? Dad, you didn't deceive me, did you?"Rigoberto, "You... did indeed love each other."Elianna, "Why am I so unbelieving? If I truly loved him, why don't I remember anything about him?"Moreover, ...Six years ago.She was extremely ugly in appearance.On her face, there used to be a very severe birthmark, making Bryston famous as an ugly woman.There are so many people in this world who judge others based on their appearance. Normal men, upon seeing her face, would rather avoid her. Could it be that Leonard is a true love warrior, who doesn't care about her looks and loves her soul?Even, he could readily accept her and the son she had with another man.Elianna couldn't believe it.How many men in the world have been so magnanimous?Rigoberto said, "Nannan, this is also something that has always pu
Madam Vale, "When I married you, I was still a pure and innocent girl! At least, I never married any other man or had children with anyone else!"Madam Vale was getting old. In her time, girls were expected to remain chaste until they got married. Once they married that man, regardless of how life turned out, they had to carry on living.Times have changed.Her thoughts remained in the old society.Therefore, when she heard that the Carrington family was making so many demands, in Madam vale's mind, Leonard was the legitimate eldest son and also her most beloved grandson. The Vale family spent so much money to marry a daughter-in-law and had to agree to so many conditions, even the future children of Elianna and Leonard would not carry the Vale family name. How could Madam vale not be angry?Moreover, some time ago, that girl went to City A and caused a big scene at the Vale family banquet by proposing to break off the engagement, which greatly embarrassed the Vale family.Sir Vale wa
After dinner.Leonard accompanied Vivienne for a leisurely stroll in the backyard."Leonard."Vivienne looked at him and said, "Have you really made up your mind to marry Elianna?"Leonard, "Hmm."Vivienne said, "Since you have made your decision, from now on, she will be the most important person to you. You must treat her well and not mistreat her."Leonard smirked and said, "Mom, I understood."Vivienne suddenly stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Leonard. "Leonard, seeing you finally getting married, Mom is deeply moved. For the first time, there is a feeling of 'my son has finally grown up'."She reached out her hand and gently stroked his cheek, "Over the years, my marriage with your father has also become empty and meaningless. I am a unfortunate woman who has been hurt in marriage, so I understand Elianna's hesitation towards marriage. You are a man, once you have made a commitment to her, you must never waver i
Elianna looked at Joseph and said, "I came this time to express my gratitude to you. The doctor said that I was shot with an anesthetic gun and the situation was very critical. If it weren't for you, I would have been in grave danger."Aron would not hurt her.It was so understanding and knew that she had saved its life. Not only did it not harm her, but it would also protect her.At that time, she was shot with an anesthetic gun, and the rescue team wanted to save her, but Aron mistakenly thought they wanted to harm her.A fierce beast, what does it know? It only knows that the guns held in the hands of those people are very dangerous, so it tightly protects itself in front of her.Fortunately, Aron was fine.Elianna looked at him and said, "Joseph, why did you save me?"Joseph's eyelashes drooped slightly, but he did not answer.Elianna, "Is it worth losing your life in the jaws of a lion to save someone like me, with your wo
Afternoon.Elianna went to the company.Several weeks of absence, the affairs in the company piled up like a mountain.She coordinated several projects, held a meeting, and by the time it ended, it was already half past five.Outside the window, it was evening, and there was a sunset glow.She walked out of the meeting room, stood by the window, and gazed at the setting sun on the horizon, lost in thought.The assistant walked over and handed her the phone, saying, "Ms. Carrington, there's a call for you, it's from the Vale family's little scion."During the meeting, Elianna handed her phone over to her assistant, as she did not have the habit of keeping her phone with her at all times when she was not in a meeting.She took the phone and made a call back."Hello?"Leonard's gentle voice came through, "Were you busy just now?"Elianna said, "Hmm, during this period, I was delayed with work, so I went back t
The two individuals were not dressed extravagantly like nobles, but rather simply in casual clothes. However, the man was handsome and the woman was charming, and in their every gesture and movement, they couldn't hide their aristocratic demeanor.And those who were not wearing fur coats, were wearing white waist suspenders, the internet celebrities, compared to the elegant and graceful Elianna, suddenly revealed their true colors.At that moment, there was some surprise, especially when they saw a tall man in a suit and tie accompanying Leonard and Elianna.They immediately recognized the man, who was the director of Enchanted Love Restaurant.Online, there are many videos of wealthy people dining at Enchanted Love, and this man always appears in the footage. Whenever he appears, it means that he is serving the real customers of Enchanted Love.And the so-called fake customers are those who sneak into the restaurant by privately boarding the islan
Elianna widened her eyes in astonishment and looked at him.Leonard's clear and captivating eyes gazed at her silently, the tenderness in his eyes seemed capable of melting glaciers.He raised his right hand, and a thin silver chain cascaded down from his fingertips.This was a diamond pendant.Could it be that the shooting star that just flashed across the screen was not a real "meteor", but this diamond pendant?Was this the mysterious surprise he had prepared for her?Elianna was completely unprepared and no one expected that he would have prepared everything so carefully. For a moment, everyone was a bit stunned.Leonard looked down at her, and saw her beautiful peach blossom eyes staring at the pendant in his hand with surprise. He asked softly, "Do you like it?"Elianna smiled and said, "These... were all prepared by you in advance?"Leonard's smile grew wider. "Hmm. I put in a little bit of thought."He pau
Leonard 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
