"No..." Gladyce understood what Mr. Bai meant and shook her head in horror. "No, Mr. Bai." "Listen to me." Xi Bai held Gladyce's cheeks, his eyes bloodshot. "Gladyce, I've been with my mother since I was young. I've never had a happy day. She's always been a mistress. Everyone looks down on me and belittled me until I meet you." "Bai Pan." Gladyce choked with sobs. Xi Bai raised his head and laughed. "Ever since my mother passed away, you've been taking care of me. But, Gladyce... I know that I'm a burden to you!" "No, it's not like that." Gladyce clenched her fists. "It's not like that. To me... you're my only family!" "I'm content to hear you say that." Xi Bai smiled with tears in his eyes. "Gladyce, listen up. I've done everything for this man. It has nothing to do with you! I'm a cripple. I've been like this for the rest of my life. I'll be a burden to you if I live! But, Gladyce, you're different..." He choked
"You..." Gladyce didn't quite understand. "Was it you who let me out?" "Yes, but not exactly." Liang Qinbang sighed. "If all the evidence is pointed at you, it's impossible for me to let you out! I can't do anything against the law." "Why are you helping me?" Gladyce swallowed hard. She seemed to have guessed the answer. "Alas." Liang Songbang lowered his eyes. Gladyce had really forgotten everything. "Help your friend." This friend of his referred to Gladyce... But Gladyce obviously didn't know that she thought of Simon. Gladyce nodded. "But Mr. Shi is innocent! He didn't kill anyone!" "This matter is not up to you or me to decide..." Liang Qinbang frowned. "Whether he has committed a crime or not needs to be decided by the law. In the current situation, I can only protect you!" "You..." Gladyce gritted her teeth. "Can't you help him? Bai Pan is innocent." "Tsk." Liang Qinbang frowned and s
In order to save Mr. Xi, Gladyce had gone around asking for help. Generally speaking, lawyers would not accept such cases because they were not sure. The cost of having the confidence to be a lawyer was quite high. Even so, she couldn't guarantee that Mr. Shi would be able to clean it up! If Xi Bai Pan had any stains on his body, he would be finished! He was still so young. At this moment, Gladyce was in a legal office, asking for advice. "Miss Wen." The reception lawyer tried to persuade her. "You can't pay the fee. Why don't you... In this case, you'd better wait for the relevant departments to support you. They will send help to the lawyer." Helping a lawyer? How could Gladyce not know? However, why would she be so concerned about helping her lawyer? The reception lawyer added, "The chance of helping the lawyer to kill by mistake is still very high." He killed by mistake! Gladyce was stunned. How could this be? She lo
Gladyce stayed in the bathroom for a long time before she finally came out. When she came out, Simon was sitting on the sofa, busy with a tablet. "That one." Gladyce walked over and whispered. "Yes." Simon looked up. He was talking to the doctor and told her everything about Gladyce. Gladyce smoothed her hair. "If I marry you, will you help me?" Simon paused and said lightly. "First of all, you have to marry me." "..." Gladyce was stunned. She had always felt that she was smart enough, but every time she met this man, she would always be frustrated! Gladyce was furious. "I can't get a definite answer. Why should I marry you?" "Ha." Simon chuckled and looked around. "Do you have any other choice?" "..." Gladyce silently clenched her fists. Yes, she had no other choice! Only by marrying him would she have a chance of survival! Clenching her teeth, Gladyce nodded. "Okay... I'l
Gladyce turned off the light and lay down on the bed. This room was much better than the Wen family's. However, it was not easy for Gladyce to fall asleep in such a luxurious room. Remembering what had happened recently, it was too dramatic. In the darkness, the door was pushed open. "Who is it?" Gladyce opened her eyes warily and was about to get out of bed. He pressed an arm against her waist and grabbed hold of her. "Ah..." Gladyce lay on her back, feeling the man's strength and temperature. She tried to say, "Simon?" "Clang, clang." Simon sneered. "This time, you didn't call me Your Excellency. It's a progress... not bad." "You..." Gladyce glared at him and growled through gritted teeth. "Didn't we agree? I'm not married. I'm staying in the guest room." "Yes." Simon nodded slightly. In the darkness, Gladyce adapted to the light and could see his strong outline. He raised his eyebrows. "Aren't
"What are you talking about?" A woman's intuition told Gladyce that there must be a story between this Ruth and Simon. Ruth looked to the side. The butler was still there... She was careful and did not want to say anything in front of the butler. "Madam, how about this, tell me... what do you like?" "This..." Gladyce was at a loss for words. What exactly did she say? Seeing that she was silent, Ruth smiled and said, "If you can't say it, you can also say it. There are some special things between you and you when you are in love. This can be used as a reference for my design, which is also very memorable. What do you think?" Gladyce laughed and shook her head. "No, I don't. He and I... Hey, how can we be in love? It's up to you. Just make it simple." "... I see. That's great." Ruth smiled awkwardly and nodded. After that, the housekeeper sent them out. Gladyce went straight to the garden from the corridor. As soon a
Gladyce came out of the police station, and the driver was waiting for her. "Miss Wen, are you leaving?" "Can you send me back to the Wen family?" Gladyce asked carefully, afraid that the opportunity would not be accepted. "Yes." The driver did not ask any more questions. He drove Gladyce to the Wen family home. Gladyce wanted to come here to get something. She went through the side door of the Wen family and entered the place where she and Xi Bai Duan lived. Speaking of which, it was really pitiful. She and Xi Bai had reached such a state that there was nothing to deal with when they returned to the Wen family. However, the reason Gladyce had come here was to take away Mr. Shi's drafts. She knew that those were the most important things to him. They were all his painstaking efforts. He walked into Xi Baibo's room and put all his drafts in the cabinet. Gladyce took her things and walked out of the room. Suddenly, she fou
Gladyce shrank in Simon's arms. "This... this is too sudden. Why don't I prepare some?" "Are you nervous?" Simon smiled and rubbed her nose with her head. "Don't be nervous. My parents are very kind. They don't have any special requirements for their daughter-in-law, as long as I like her." "As long as he likes it?" Gladyce sneered inwardly. Of course, she was just a shield! When the person in his heart returned, she could be thrown away at any time. Simon took her hand and said, "Now, come home with me." "But, I..." Gladyce opened her mouth, not knowing how to object. "Shh." Simon reached out and covered her mouth. "Don't be afraid. They will like you." Having no choice, Gladyce was dragged into the car by Simon and went straight to the long summer. In the long summer, Savannah, Hang Ningshi, and early morning were waiting. Ning Daiyu kept talking, one on the left and the other on the right. "Mom, Glad
