Caught red-handed, I have never felt more embarrassed in my entire life. And to make matters worse, it was an Alpha that I haven't really interacted with before. My mind quickly raced through various escape plans and the potential consequences if I failed to escape.

 

"Hahaha," I awkwardly laughed, and without thinking, I blurted out, "You look absolutely captivating." I wanted to smack myself for sounding like a flirtatious person from ancient times, teasing a married woman. Unfortunately, I wasn't teasing a married woman but rather an Alpha whom I couldn't quite figure out. Was I out of my mind?

 

Mr. Eugen spoke seriously, "In that case, Miss Fowler only needs to look at me for lunch, no need to eat anymore."

 

"I was just joking, please don't take it to heart," I said, blushing and desperately trying to make him believe me.

 

"Joking? So, does Miss Fowler think I'm not attractive?" Mr. Eugen paused, turned to face me, a

    Mr. Eugen stood tall and looked at me with a fragile appearance, sighing. He then took out his phone and made a call to the security guard, asking him to bring the car over and take me home. I weakly sat on the sofa, feeling my legs trembling, truly exhausted. The thought of there being many more villas to see left me feeling hopeless."Mama," Spring extended his restless arms, wanting me to hold him.Mr. Eugen did not give Spring to me, but instead looked at me sternly, saying, "Your physical strength is too weak. Starting from tomorrow, you will train with me in the morning.""Train for what?" I asked, confused."Endurance. Be in the living room at exactly 6:30 AM tomorrow," Mr. Eugen instructed. "This is all for your own good."I was momentarily caught off guard and forgot to respond. Is this also part of the designer's job?"Alright, let's have a meal," Mr. Eugen said to me, the

    I feel that there is a lot of ambiguity between Mr. Eugen and myself, and I want to break free from his embrace."Don't move!" Mr. Eugen whispered to me. Instead of letting go, he tightened his hold on my hand and kept me close to him. As I felt tense, a fleeting smile crossed Mr. Eugen's sharp and profound eyes."Could you please let go of me?" I blushed and said. Apart from Claude, and the character MK played by Claude, I have never been this close to any man before. I pushed Mr. Eugen away and quickly escaped from there.In the afternoon, I continued to work on my designs. Throughout the day, I avoided any direct contact or eye contact with Mr. Eugen, which was both agonizing and awkward. I don't know if it's because of the run, but my muscles were hurting badly. I could barely exert any strength in my arm to hold a pen, but I gritted my teeth and continued writing and drawing. The nanny brought Spring over and Spring reached out

    I looked at Claude and Mr. Eugen in surprise - Uncle? It was completely unexpected for me to find out that Claude and Mr. Eugen were actually nephew and uncle."Hmm," Mr. Eugen's gaze casually swept across Claude's face, a hint of complexity flashing in his eyes, although no one noticed it."Come to my study," Mr. Eugen said to Claude, then turned to me and said, "You're not feeling well. Take the day to rest."I wasn't feeling well and didn't want to see Claude, so I nodded and walked away without a word. I sat on the swing outside, feeling bored. I don't know how long passed, but Claude stood in front of me. I felt a shadow cast over me and looked up to see Claude standing there. A trace of disgust unconsciously crossed my eyes."What do you want now?" I impatiently looked at him and said coldly.From some point on, it seems like I have unknowingly let go of Claude, maybe i

    I immediately let go of my hand and smiled awkwardly, saying, "Don't misunderstand me, I..."Novia didn't let me finish my words and immediately came over, ignoring the fact that I had just finished running with sweat all over my body. She grabbed my arm and asked, "Where did you guys just go? I waited for you for half an hour before you came back.""We just went for a run, just to exercise." I smiled and explained to her. I silently prayed that Novia wouldn't think too much, but she seemed unaffected, while I still had some concerns.Mr. Eugen looked at Novia expressionlessly and asked, "How did you come here?"Novia blushed, as if she had applied a lot of blush on her face, and whispered, "I just came back from abroad and brought you a gift. I came here today specifically to give it to you." After saying that, she glanced at Mr. Eugen secretly.Mr. Eugen nodded coldly and said, "Do as you please. If you need

    After returning to the room, I took out my phone and suddenly remembered what Novia had said. I opened the call records and found that MK's phone number had been removed from the blacklist by Novia, and she even made a call to MK. I sighed, but then something came to my mind and I couldn't help but jump up from the bed.Since Novia accidentally dialed MK's number using my phone, which belongs to Claude, the ringtone I heard in the villa today must have been Claude's. How could Claude's phone be in Mr. Eugen's study? Could it be that Claude dropped it there when he came over yesterday? Once I had doubts, they became even stronger. I had to unravel this mystery, otherwise I would feel restless. I wasn't in the mood to play with my phone anymore, so I lay on the bed, feeling restless.I had to figure out what was going on. So I got up from the bed and silently sneaked into Mr. Eugen's study. I gently knocked on the door, but no one answered. Was Mr. Eu

    Upon returning to the villa, I felt extremely exhausted."Miss Fowler, you're back. Would you like to have dinner? What would you like to eat? I can prepare it for you right away," the nanny asked with concern as she saw me come back."Thank you, but I'm not hungry. I'm feeling tired," I declined the nanny's kind offer.I went straight upstairs and as I collapsed on the bed, I felt my body go limp. I covered my face, overwhelmed with sadness. Some things, even though they happened a long time ago, still felt like they happened just yesterday. I had always been sheltered by my mother, living a mediocre and weak life, which led me to be pushed to this point. But it's alright, I won't be the same as before. I will stand up and make those who have bullied me pay for their actions. I was too exhausted. I don't know how much time passed, but I fell into a drowsy sleep. In my dreams, it seemed like someone was calling out to me

    In the banquet hall, I quickly found my grandmother. I haven't seen my grandmother for a long time, and her eyes have become cloudy, a sign of aging. Seeing my grandmother's hunched figure, my nose tingled, and I walked over and said, "Grandma."As soon as my grandmother heard my voice, she immediately became spirited.She smiled lovingly at me, waving her hand, "My dear granddaughter, you finally came! Grandma has been waiting for you for a long time. Come here, let Grandma have a good look at you. You naughty girl, I've always asking you to come see me, but you didn't!""Grandma, I'm sorry. It's just that I've been very busy with work. But from now on, I promise to visit you more often." I handed the nicely wrapped gift to Grandma and said, "Grandma, this is a gift for you from me."Vicky quickly caught up with me. She put on a fake smile and said, "Nat, you have no idea how much Grandma misses you. Come on, let's

    "Who ruined my good time! Ah!" The nauseating smell quickly fades away, and a familiar scent follows. I have embraced this scent many times before. It's MK! I fall into the warm and familiar embrace of MK, and his hand caresses my face. Feeling the warmth of that hand, I experience a sense of peace and security, as MK gives me a great feeling of safety.I slowly succumbed, but suddenly I remembered, MK is Claude! So I struggled to push him away, but I had no strength in my body, I could only weakly whimper, "Go away, don't touch me, don't touch me."MK, wearing a silver mask, his expression indiscernible, picked me up horizontally and said, "Don't move, I'll take you away from here." MK quickly took me out of the room and directly to the presidential suite upstairs."Don't touch me, get lost." I couldn't bear it and curled up into a ball, cursing at MK.MK's hand, which was touching my cheek, paused, his gaze swept

    "Nat, where are you?" Mr. Eugen asked with concern.I completely forgot. I've been so focused on Spring lately that I haven't even taken a break. How could Mr. Eugen not have noticed that I've been gone for so long today?When I saw Mr. Eugen's phone call, I felt nervous. Hearing his concern for me warmed my heart and made my nose feel a bit tingly. I even felt like crying a little.

    "After that day, Elsie never came to the hospital again, and I continued to accompany Spring in the hospital while Mr. Eugen still took care of her with me every day.On this day, I received a call from Novia. Seeing Novia calling me on her own initiative, I couldn't help but be surprised. I glanced at Mr. Eugen who was resting next to me, and walked outside the ward to answer the phone."Novia?" I had a slight worry in my heart when it came to Novia."Do you have time to talk?" Novia's tone was a bit impatient, and she quickly said.I looked in the direction of the ward. Spring was sleeping at the moment, and Mr. Eugen was by her side, so it shouldn't be a problem for me to leave for a while.I agreed and said, "But I'm worried about Spring. Can we meet somewhere around the hospital?"When Novia heard my suggestion, her tone suddenly became even more hostile. "Hmph, pretending to care. That child is not yours, I don't believe you really care about that child."I heard Novia's tone an

    I returned home, feeling physically exhausted, but I just couldn't fall asleep.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Spring lying weakly in the hospital bed, waiting for a blood transfusion. After finally managing to doze off for a little while, I even dreamt of Spring crying and looking for their mother. I woke up drenched in cold sweat, unable to fall back asleep.I know something is not right with my current state. It seems like I have truly become attached to Spring. Even though I know Spring has their own mother and is not my child, I can't control my emotions and treat them as if they were my own.I glanced at the time and realized it was already afternoon. Feeling a bit hungry, I got up and made myself a bowl of instant noodles. As I looked at the steaming noodles, thoughts of Spring came flooding back. How is Spring doing now? They must be happy with their biological parents by their side, right? Despite thin

    "Since you're back, just in case Spring gets confused, I'll make Spring call her Miss Natalie from now on," Mr. Eugen spoke again, a hint of pain in his eyes.Hearing his words, my eyes widened involuntarily. Does it mean that because Spring's mother is back, he won't allow Spring to call me mom anymore? I looked at Elsie sitting by the bed, watching Spring, and my lips started trembling."Spring!" I couldn't help but call out, but I was afraid of waking up Spring who was sleeping, so my voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.Elsie's lips curled up slightly, pretending to look innocent, and said, "Murphy, you really hired a good nanny this time. She has such deep affection for our Spring, I'm really happy about it." Elsie's tone was praising, and her eyes towards me were filled with admiration, as if I were just a nanny.I was taken aback and looked at Mr. Eugen. Elsie mistook me for a nanny, but what about

    I walked towards the nearby sofa with a sense of disappointment and sat down. I listened as Spring called Elsie "mom," and it made me feel uneasy. Spring was just a child, and he quickly got tired after playing for a while. Elsie gently tucked him in and then sat down next to me. However, I couldn't help but notice that she was sitting a bit far away from me, whether intentionally or unintentionally."I never expected that taking care of a child could be so exhausting. You've really been through a lot these past few days," Elsie said, with a hint of playfulness in her voice. I was already quite delicate-looking, but at this moment, I looked even more adorable and pitiable.So Mr. Eugen had been involved with a woman like her before. I suppose every man would be attracted to a woman like her, right? Even if he left, he probably wouldn't easily forget her, would he?My expression couldn't help but turn unpleasant. Elsie had come back, and judging by her appearance, it seemed like she wa

    I felt a warmth in my heart. Even though I appeared confident in front of Mrs. Eugen, deep down I felt a bit insecure, thinking that I didn't really deserve Mr. Eugen. But Mr. Eugen's unwavering attitude truly made me feel secure.I couldn't help but turn my head and saw Mr. Eugen smiling at me."Murphy, you are really clueless," Mrs. Eugen said with a disdainful look, disgusted by my persistence. But knowing that today was not the day for any outcome, she left in a hurry.After Mrs. Eugen left, I didn't feel relieved. My mind was still filled with Mrs. Eugen's and Novia's words. Before I could think too much, Mr. Eugen looked into my eyes earnestly and said, "Nat, don't overthink it. I like you, and if you're willing to give me a chance, I would be really happy. I love you. The luckiest thing in my life is being with you."I knew Mr. Eugen liked me, really liked me. But I couldn't ignore Mrs. Eugen's words and I co

    As Mrs. Eugen walked in and saw me, a disdainful expression appeared on her face. She looked at me mockingly and said, "Miss Fowler, I thought I made it clear last time. I never expected you to still be clinging to my son."Upon hearing Mrs. Eugen's mockery, I felt a bit angry inside, but I didn't show it. I simply smiled politely and responded, "Mrs. Eugen, this is between Mr. Eugen and me. He is an adult now, and even though you are his mother, you have no right to interfere with his freedom to love."I promised myself that I would face whatever challenges came my way, so this time, I wouldn't run away."I have every right to interfere, and it's not up to you to decide. I've seen women like you, who just want to climb the social ladder," Mrs. Eugen said contemptuously. "If you have any self-respect left, you will leave immediately. We don't welcome you here.""I'm not leaving, and you don't have the power to make

    "Are you two together?" Novia exclaimed incredulously.Mr. Eugen, standing beside me, admitted openly, "As you can see."I felt my body stiffen, not expecting Novia to suddenly appear. I knew Novia had feelings for Mr. Eugen, even though he had made it clear to her. The current situation made it difficult for me to avoid suspicion."Novia, I..." I tried to explain, but it seemed that no matter how I explained it, it would be wrong.Novia looked at me with a cold smile and mocked, "I trusted you as a good sister, but you're secretly stealing my man. You're really something."Novia's words were sharp and pierced my heart deeply. "Novia, it's not like that, me and..." I tried to explain, but Novia interrupted me coldly.Novia questioned, "Natalie, if you dare to do it, you should dare to face it. You and Mr. Eugen are together every day. Have you been planning this all along?"Novia

    I carefully examined Spring's features, and indeed, he looked so much like me. I took out my phone and switched to the front camera, looking at myself in the screen and then at Spring. The more I looked, the more I realized how uncanny the resemblance was. My heart started beating faster, just as the nurse had mentioned. Spring and I truly looked like mother and son. As I held the child in my arms, my inner turmoil only grew stronger.If Spring is my child, why hasn't Mr. Eugen told me about it? Could there be another hidden reason behind this? However, whether Spring is my child or not, I must resolve my doubts. While Mr. Eugen is still not back, I dialed the phone number of the detective agency I used before."I want you to verify some information."After hanging up the phone, I felt very nervous. Looking at Spring in my arms, I couldn't let go of him.When Mr. Eugen came back, he placed the take-out box on
