Actually, she had also thought carefully about it. Anyway, she didn't believe in love anymore, and marriage was never really about love in the first place.With the Carrington Group's position in Bryston, anyone who marries is not marrying beneath them.The Vale Group in Bryston is the only aristocratic family comparable to the Carrington Group. Although the Vale Group can be considered as reaching high to the Carrington Group, they can barely be called a match made in heaven.Moreover, if the Vale family agreed to the conditions she mentioned, she would not be wronged by marrying into it. At least, Leonard could be considered a decent gentleman.Marrying into the Vale family also meant that the two families formed an alliance.When the Carrington Group grew stronger, one day she would inevitably trample Joseph under her feet!Zack hesitated for a while and said, "Mommy, can you not marry that uncle?"Elianna said, "What's wrong? Weren't you always wanting dad?"Zack said, "I didn't w
Livia sat up in pain, her hand gently clutching her chest.The heartbeat there was pounding hard.Previously, the doctor had already told her that her heart problem was very serious, even more serious than she had imagined, and she couldn't handle any kind of stimulation.However, Elianna's words were cutting to the heart.Her hand continued her life.Her words, spoken one by one, sentence by sentence, were meant to take her life!Livia clenched her teeth and swallowed half a sentence, "That night, you and him..."She paused for a moment and, surprisingly, couldn't continue asking.Elianna knew what she wanted to ask and said calmly, "That night, he got drunk and I took him home."Livia widened her eyes, and large tears fell without warning.Elianna smiled and said, "But you also have to understand him. For so many years, he hasn't had any other women around him. You have a heart condition, so he doesn't dare to touch you. He's also a normal man, an adult, with some physiological need
In the room.Joseph stood silently.Livia curled up on the sofa, huddled herself into a ball, resisting his touch, "This villa, you bought it for me, it's our home. You brought her here, let her stay overnight, what do you take me for?"Joseph looked at her, looking disturbed. Surely, Elianna had said something she shouldn't have.He patiently knelt down on one knee and carefully said, "Livia, calm down. She and I..."Livia interrupted him, "Are you still trying to deceive me? Did nothing happen between you and her? She told me everything! That night, everything that should and shouldn't have happened between you and her, happened! She has no shame, she wants to take you away! But you are mine, you are clearly mine..."After venting her anger, she started crying sadly, "You were supposed to be mine... Joseph, don't you love me the most? Do you know how she was just showing off in front of me? You brought that woman home and had a passionate affair with her in this house. Have you ever
Elvis felt confused.What devil king?Who is the devil king?Are these characters from an animated series?Elvis's mind immediately conjured up the green face of Piccolo, and he quickly explained, "I wasn't with the devil king! I was with you!"Owen skeptically glanced at him and said, "I don't believe you!"Elvis, "Really! I swear."Owen turned his face with a grievance, "I don't believe you, you swore to me, you are the henchman of the devil king, the devil king and that wicked woman are in cahoots, and you are also in cahoots with that wicked woman!"Elvis was stunned for a moment before he suddenly realized that the little guy was referring to Mr. Kensington as the "devil king".As for who that bad woman was, could it be Ms. Wyndham?Taking advantage of Elvis' inattention, Owen swiftly ran towards the door.The little guy was agile and moved like a rabbit.Unable to resist Elvis's quick eyes and fast hands, he chased a few steps and suddenly lifted him up.Owen was lifted off the
Elianna stepped out of the door.Zack held a pillow, looked at the lamp, felt a sense of tranquility in his heart, and slowly closed his eyes.Since he could remember, it seemed like he slept alone.He was actually very afraid of the dark.Dad taught him that he was a boy and should be brave. Therefore, when he was very young, he was already made to sleep alone in a room.At first, he also liked to turn on a small light.But every time Joseph came into the room to see him, he would turn off the light.Every time, he would be so scared that he would shrink his head into the blanket, curl up his body, feeling insecure. But mommy would always leave a lamp for him, the light was not bright, very dim, but it gave him enough sense of security.Just like...Mommy was always with him.***The next morning.7:30 in the morning.Elianna came to wake Zack up."Baby, wake up!"Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Zack slowly sat up from the bed. He hadn't fully opened his eyes yet, and his voice was hoarse a
At the entrance of Wild Haven Safari Park.Tyson bought a ticket on the app.There are dedicated routes for self-driving tours.The car entered the entrance and after driving for a while, the view suddenly opened up.Because it was not a holiday, there were not many visitors, and as a result, there were fewer tourists feeding the animals. Many hungry animals, who had gone without food for a night, boldly walked onto the road and stopped cars to beg for food.Zack was leaning on the window, excitedly looking outside.Through the car window, he saw many animals coming and going beside the car from time to time.There were musk deer, giraffes, and even zebras, and camels arrogantly stuck their huge heads into the car windows, twitching their thick lips, begging for carrots and apples.This was his first time visiting Safari Park.He knew a lot of animals, but either he saw them through encyclopedias or he got to know them through educational TV programs. This was the first time he had se
This alpaca had a messy hairstyle, covering one eye, while the other eye was filled with contempt, as if it couldn't care less and even a bit insolent. It was not cute at all and lacked manners.Zack said, "You were rude, I didn't like you."The alpaca, as if understanding the sentence, unexpectedly spat at him without any warning.A puddle of saliva was spat onto Zack's clean clothes.Zack had a germophobia, and when he saw this puddle of saliva, he immediately frowned.While he was distracted, a group of alpacas rushed up and snatched the carrots from his hand, scattering in all directions."Hahahaha!"Tyson couldn't help but laugh when he saw Zack looking so dejected.Even Elianna couldn't help but burst into laughter when she saw this amusing scene. She couldn't decide whether it was the alpaca that was too cute or her son that was too adorable!The staff on the side immediately apologized, "Child, be careful, the alpacas here have bad temperaments. There are many children like yo
The car drove into the Big Cats Area.Elianna slowed down the car and searched for the traces of that vehicle all the way.The entire Big Cats Area was very large.There are two areas, the Siberian Tiger Area and the African Lion Area.Elianna spent a long time wandering around the Siberian Tiger Area, only seeing a few tigers leisurely patrolling their territory, and there didn't seem to be anything unusual. She immediately turned the car around and drove into the African Lion Area.As soon as she entered the park, she walked about 500 meters when suddenly, she saw a red car from a distance. She immediately stepped on the accelerator until the car approached, and a red Tesla came into view!Elianna's eyes brightened with joy, however, before she could even be happy, she suddenly noticed that the Tesla car was quite severely damaged.The entire roof had a deep dent.The door frame was also slightly twisted and deformed.The most terrifying thing was-The passenger side car window had
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
