"......"
When I heard what Claude said, I really wanted to give up. Claude was a man who had no conscience. If he had a conscience, he wouldn't have done this to me, and her baby wouldn't be dead. "So that's it. " I wiped the tears from my face and laughed, but my smile was even worse than my cry. "I'm not giving you this house. Don't even think about it." "Nat, I remember all the things you've done for me. I don't want it to be too ugly. I'm even willing to pay you more. If you do not agree, I have no choice but to expel you from the pack, "Claude said with a deep look on his face." If you do, you will not have the only compensation. Don't be so stubborn." "You..." I was shaking with anger. But there was nothing I could do about them. Claude was right. I was so stupid! I gave Claude too much trust! So, now I have nothing, even at their mercy. I can't even summon my own Wolf. How am I supposed to fight Claude and Vicky now? How am I going to avenge my children if I can't keep the only house my mother gave me? All of a sudden I felt like I was in a dark and desperate situation. "I advise you to be sensible. You can't beat me. I can take whatever I like, yours or not..." Vicky came over, leaned into my ear, curled her lips and whispered, "Claude, your kids, and now the house." "Vicky, I'll kill you." I heard myself saying. "Claude!" Vicky immediately threw herself into Claude's arms in fear, shaking all over, as if she was really afraid of me. Claude caught me by the arm and said coldly, "I advise you to calm down, or I will hurt you." "Hahaha..." I laughed, tears streaming down my face, I clenched my teeth: "You're welcome? How else can you treat me? You've robbed me of everything I value. Claude, I hate you... I wish I have never met you." "......" Before I could finish my sentence, Vicky raised her hand and slapped me hard across the face. "You shut up... All this was my idea, hate me if you want, it had nothing to do with Claude." Vicky slapped me so hard that my ears started ringing and I was confused. I felt a burning pain in my face. I hated Vicky and Claude so much that when I looked at them, the hatred in my eyes was almost congealed into substance. I calmed down and forced myself to say coldly, "Vicky... Claude... What you have done to me today, I will remember, sooner or later, I will let you back a thousand times, a hundred times, you wait for it..."My need for revenge has arose, more than anything else. I would have given my soul to the devil for revenge, just so that Claude and Vicky could not get what they wanted. Claude seemed surprised for a moment by the hatred in my eyes. "Show Natalie out." Claude was afraid that I would go crazy again and hurt Vicky. He immediately asked his guards to pull me out and asked: "Don't let Natalie in again." Vicky laughs, with the confidence and ease of a winner. As a loser, I have never smiled like this. Even when I was around Claude, I never smiled like that. "Let me go, I own this house, how can you do this to me..." I struggled hard. "Not now." Vicky smirks. The worse I look, the happier she'll be. Just then, Claude's phone rings. He takes it out and sees the caller ID. His expression changes slightly, and he looks cautious. Claude stepped aside and got on the phone. After sometime, he said gravely to the guard who was holding me. "You let her go. You don't have to chase her away." After that, Claude took Vicky's hand again and said, "Vicky, things have changed. Let's go today." "Why?" Vicky asks, puzzled. "I'll explain to you later!" Claude is rarely very tough with Vicky. Vicky grunts with displeasure but leaves with Claude after all. When I was left alone in the home, I could not help but sit in the corner, the whole person huddled together, silent, sad palpitations cry out... I don't know how long I cried. My head was in a fog. My eyes were filled with tears. Suddenly, a mellow, magnetic voice rang out from the room: "Stupid! You've been crying for more than three hours. How long are you going to keep crying?" I was startled and looked up at once. Now it was getting dark and the light in the room was very dim. I could see nothing clearly except a tall figure standing in front of me. "MK?" I gave a tentative cry. "Yes, it was me." The figure walked up to me and picked me up around the waist. "Don't sit on the ground. It's too cold and it's bad for you." I was afraid of falling, so I couldn't help but put my arms around MK's neck. MK walked in the dark, carried me back to my room and put me on the bed. Then he asked, "Are you satisfied with the first gift I gave you?" "What do you mean? I asked, full of doubt. I didn't get any presents today. After asking, it suddenly occurred to me that Claude left today because of a phone call, so I asked tentatively: "You mean this house?" "Yes." MK sat down beside me, and I felt the bed sag a little, and my body tensed up a little. "Did you make that call?" I pressed, really curious about MK's identity. The Furies Pack, where Claude owns it, has grown rapidly over the past few years, quickly becoming the most powerful Pack. I know how much work I've put into it. As The Alpha of The Furies Pack, there were few people who could threaten Claude, and everyone had to fear him. There were only a handful of people in California who could get Claude to compromise. "It wasn't me. I had someone make the call." MK admitted lightly. "Who the are you?" I couldn't help but asking."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
