Rosalie was somewhat surprised by this newsHowever, she merely sneered in her heart.‘They are divorced! That would make anyone lose trust in love. After all, Gordon abandoned his wife and daughter for Violet back then.’Rosalie’s late mother was worried since Rosalie was still young and had not finished her studies, or else she would have taken her daughter and left that house.Gordon became even more shameless after divorcing her mother. He brought Ethan and Sophie back home, who were about the same age as her, and announced that he had betrayed his family many years ago.Rosalie would never forget in this life how much harm Violet and this pair of siblings had caused her.Right now, he was left with no one at the lowest point of his life.However, upon further reflection, she just felt numb, like there was no joy to speak of.She was already indifferent about it long ago. Be it Gordon or Violet, whether they lived or died had nothing to do with her.She replied casually, "
They took the kids to the hot spring hotel and had a lovely bath in the hot spring. Then, the family talked and laughed as they returned to the manor.Lucian and Nox beckoned their grandfather to play chess with them. Benedict quickly waved his hand to refuse and mentioned that he still had work to do. It made Melody purse her mouth and chuckle beside him."Your grandfather can't win anymore. He lost nine games in a row last time, so he doesn't have the confidence to play with you!" Melody exposed Benedict's thoughts as his eyes widened in anger."Grandma, let's go up and do some cutouts." Estie invited Melody up to the second floor, her exclusive design studio. All the clothing designs from her brand, Comfy, came from there.Lucian and Nox had no choice but to give up. The two went upstairs to study some chess strategies.Rosalie went into the kitchen and prepared a fruit plate and called out to Byron to enjoy some fruits.After some consideration, the two took the initiative an
After some serious consideration, Andrius decided to go over and help Beatrice.After all, he had caused the car accident. Ever since he knew that she was Alistair's biological sister, he felt an inexplicable sense of alienation in his heart.However, after leaving the traffic police station, he first bought plenty of herbal supplements and went to Mary's villa to deliver them to Mrs. Wilson.When he arrived at the villa, Mrs. Wilson walked out enthusiastically. She helped Andrius carry the items and offered him tea."Andrius, are you free now? Go and check on Mary. She's not feeling well today!" From Mrs. Wilson's request, Andrius realized that Mary's car was still in the yard."What? Mary is sick?" Andrius could not help showing concern and walked into the living room.Immediately, Mrs. Wilson smiled knowingly. Her daughter was not truly sick. She had just been working too hard recently, and her menstrual period arrived. Thus, she was in a lot more pain than usual.Andrius w
High-end hospital, inpatient department.Beatrice removed the gauze and checked her forehead. She was glad to find that there was no scarring.She waited for Andrius' arrival.Somehow, she knew this man's weakness. As long as I take the initiative, my wish would come true sooner or later.A faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.The phone rang suddenly, and it was Andrius. She thought he was about to arrive at the hospital.She was preparing to get closer to this man by doing a little trick later.She answered the phone. Andrius' voice came out. "Miss Murray, I'm sorry, I may not be able to pick you up today. If you really can't find someone to pick you up, can you arrange to be discharged tomorrow?"Beatrice was stunned. She never expected the man would suddenly go back on his word.She turned slightly upset and said with displeasure, "Since this is the case, then forget it. I can be discharged from the hospital myself."Immediately, she cut the call out of annoyan
Beatrice was curious about what Andrius was doing and why he did not pick her up.After she was discharged from the hospital, she checked into a five-star hotel.Then, she made a phone call."Mr. Sharpe, help me investigate Andrius Quirke. I want to know what he is doing now. My brother had asked you to keep an eye on this man before."Mr. Sharpe was personally trained by Alistair in Coast City. He had built a small team dedicated to collecting information with good efficiency.He was able to obtain real-time accurate information on Byron and Andrius previously.Of course, it could also be possible that Byron and Andrius were not even trying to hide their whereabouts.Not long after, Mr. Sharpe reported back to Beatrice."Found it, Andrius stayed at Mary's house for a few hours and left after lunch! The license plate number matched!" Mr. Sharpe answered then hung up as usual.Beatrice was dazed for a long time. Suddenly, she burst into anger.‘Does this mean, I’ve lost to Mar
In the park, Rosalie and Byron set up tents and moisture-proof blankets. They made a simple picnic spot.When everything was settled, Byron took the kids and cook some simple food with a portable stove.Rosalie was relieved by her husband’s thoughtfulness, so the kids would not feel so repulsed.She helped out as well, setting up a small hot pot. She filled the sharing plate for the little kids to taste.Gordon arrived at the agreed time. He dressed plainly and staggered in his steps.He carried a bag in his arms, which contained the newly bought, branded clothes, and three locket pendants.He stood far away for several minutes without getting close, watching the children play with their parents to their heart's content.For a moment, emotional complexity flashed in his eyes.‘I have no choice but to obediently cooperate with Mr. Murray. That five million dollars had been taken away by the creditors. I can't afford to pay the money now. I don't want to be so poor for the rest o
The three little kids stared at Gordon as he left.Suddenly, Estie blurted. "Daddy, Mommy, isn't Grandpa very pitiful?"Lucian and Nox hurriedly corrected their younger sister. "Sister, that's not right. Grandpa was never kind to Mommy, so there is nothing to be pitiful about."Estie nodded thoughtfully.Byron and Rosalie did not say anything. There was no need to teach the kids to change their minds, or forcibly hijack their morality.They decided to respect their children’s inner freedom.The family continued their picnic and playing games. They did not leave the park until night fell.......Gordon returned to the cramped small apartment in the dilapidated community. Violet was playing with her mobile phone. The pot and the stove were cold, and nobody cooked.He was disgusted with this woman.Immediately, he complained. "What's going on? You wouldn’t even cook a meal, are you planning to be a rich wife?"Upon hearing this, Violet's face immediately became ferocious. She g
"Mom, pack up and dress up quickly. I'm taking you to meet a VIP!" After scolding her father rudely, Sophie lit a lady's cigarette and sat waiting impatiently.Violet paused for a moment and hurriedly went to the room to change and put on makeup. A person whom her daughter called a VIP must be someone distinguished. She must not let her daughter down.Gordon just frowned throughout the whole time. He felt angry but unable to vent.The reason was, Sophie had a rich second-generation boyfriend, but the relationship fell apart because she was implicated in his debts back then.In the end, she could not even find a job and had to develop abroad.These years, he rarely had contact with his daughter. Occasionally, he could only chat with her briefly from Violet's phone.After a while, Violet dressed up. When she came out, her alluring charm remained.Sophie glanced at her mother and decided she was not too shabby. She immediately took her mother downstairs and got into a Mercedes-Benz
