Silvia came out of the bathroom after her shower and saw that Jayden was still there. She immediately looked at him vigilantly and asked, "Jayden, why are you still in my room?" "What do you think? Why am I still in your room?" When she needed his help, she would behave coquettishly in front of him. The way she called him Young Master Kyle was just so pleasant to the ears. However, now that she was done using him, she immediately turned her back on him and spoke to him in such a hostile manner. Jayden thought that this woman just wanted to get punished! "Why would I know...? Can you go back to your room now? I'm going to bed soon." As she had expected, this man really had inexhaustible energy. It seemed like he would not be able to fall asleep if he did not do something with her at night. He had nothing to do all day so he had nowhere to expend his energy. On the other hand, Silvia was busy for the whole day. She was so tired that she did not have any more energy left
"Yes, it's just a dream. Don't be afraid, I'm here." Jayden patted her on the back and comforted her in a gentle voice. With him by her side, and his warm chest to lean on to, Silvia gradually calmed down. She leaned against his chest and asked, "Jayden, do you know what I just dreamt about just now?" Jayden lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "Tell me." Silvia rubbed her head against his chest and said slowly, "I dreamt about Norman..." Jayden interrupted her. "Norman is in prison now. He will not get out for the rest of his life. If you're going to dream about him, you might as well dream about me, right?" Silvia looked up and blinked her beautiful watery eyes at him. "I dreamed about you too." Jayden picked up her soft and long hair and smelled it. "What was it about?" "At first, it was only Norman. He was pointing a gun at my head, but in the blink of an eye, he became you..." Even if it was just a dream, Silvia could not help but get
"Silvia, I'm not saying that you shouldn't fall for him. I'm just telling you that if you like him, you should cherish him. You should cherish every single day that you get to spend with him, or you would regret it in the future. Once you lose something, you may never get it back again." Audrey broke into a wry smile and continued, "Think about it! I'll get going now." "Audrey..." Silvia stopped her in her tracks. "What about you? Have you thought about it? The person you want to cherish..." "The person I want to cherish?" A tinge of sadness flashed across Audrey's eyes. She smiled and said, "There are too many men I wanted to cherish, but unfortunately, they did not cherish me." Silvia did not like how Audrey was talking about herself, so she said, "Can't you talk to me properly? Others might not understand you, but I think I am closer to you." Audrey smiled indifferently and said, "Every word I said is true. For me, as long as he is a rich man, I would want to
Reagan agreed with Lemur and said, "Ever since she got together with Young Master Kyle, she seemed to have changed into another person. She would not drink even a sip of alcohol just because Young Master Kyle doesn't allow her to do so." Audrey said, "Well, Young Master Kyle is your Boss' kryptonite. There somehow had to be someone in this world who could tame your fearless Boss, right? Otherwise, she would never get married!" Silvia shouted, "Hey, have you guys forgotten that I'm still here? You guys are just gossiping about me right in my face huh? The three of you better be careful of what you're saying. Also, what do you mean that he's my kryptonite? I am his kryptonite, alright? Whenever he's with me, he has to obey my orders!" Silvia said so, but in fact, she did not dare to break any of Jayden's rules! If that b*stard Jayden were to find out that she did not actually go back to her mother's place, but instead went drinking, Silvia would probably be skinne
Reagan was frustrated, so he picked up the beer bottle and took a long gulp. Lemur immediately snatched the bottle away and said, "Reagan, we are here to have fun with Boss. Should you be drinking like that?" Reagan said in anger, "The person I like just rejected me, can't you just let me drink?" "Silly kid, you're really not my cup of tea, so you should really stop torturing yourself." Audrey patted Reagan's shoulder and handed him a glass of cocktail. "Here, once we finish up this drink, we'll be best friends forever." "Best friend? I don't want that, I want us to be more than friends. I want you to be my girlfriend." Reagan wanted to express his feelings out loud. He knew that he would feel better doing that, but it was possible that his friendship with Audrey would be over. Reagan did not want to compromise, but he had no choice but to do so. The world was cruel. He took the glass Audrey handed over and emptied it. "Bottoms up, Audrey." Audrey raised h
The audience loved the performance, so after it ended, they cheered for an encore. Silvia once again led Reagan and Lemur on to the stage and started their second performance. While Silvia was enjoying herself during the dance performance, she vaguely caught a glimpse of a figure by the door. That man looked like Jayden... Young Master Kyle? Jayden Elias Kyle? As Silvia thought of him, she immediately sobered up a little. When she looked at the door again, Jayden was not there at all. Thank God he was not there. She probably mistook someone else for him. Silvia breathed a sigh of relief and continued to dance with Reagan and Lemur. She was so engrossed in her dancing that she did not notice that the man from the door was already standing on stage. Jayden stood there, looking at Silvia who was dressed skimpily. He watched her moving her body to the music and shouting at the top of her lungs, as if she was not aware that there was a crowd under the sta
With a solemn look, Jayden shoved Silvia into the car. He then got in next to her and ordered the driver to take them home. Looking at his expression, Silvia knew that he was furious. She knew that if she did not calm him down in time, she would definitely be in trouble. Silvia tugged the edge of his shirt and said softly, "Young Master Kyle, please don't be angry, alright? Actually, I didn't drink much at all. I've already restrained myself from drinking too much." She was reeking of alcohol and had been dancing in such a revealing outfit. She even had the audacity to say that she had already restrained herself! Jayden wondered what would happen if she had let loose?! Was she going to get wasted and pass out on the streets? Or would she start stripping off her clothes and let the others look at her body? As Jayden thought of these possibilities, he wished that he could just lock her up so that she could not step out of the house. Jayden clench
After Jayden had brought Silvia home, Audrey, who was hiding under the table, finally emerged. She tidied up her slightly messy clothes and took out a mirror to fix her make up. Audrey would always remind herself that no matter what situation she was in, she would maintain her elegance and composure. She must not miss a chance to be noticed by a rich man. It was already rare for a woman to meet a rich bachelor. If Audrey were to meet one but lose the opportunity because of her image, that would definitely be the biggest loss in her entire life. "Audrey, Boss abandoned us again." Reagan and Lemur were so drunk that they had no sense of crisis at all when they saw Jayden taking Silvia away. They did not realize that Jayden could actually ban them from drinking with just a flick of his hand. Now, they even dared to complain to Audrey that Silvia had left them behind again. "Since Silvia has left and both of you are so drunk, why don't we wrap it up for today? We'll
...... Eight months later. Adrienne had given birth to a daughter, gathering the entire Yard family in Chatterton Town. Everyone was in high spirits but Jefferson had a sour expression on, as if that was the worst day of his life. Sierra found a moment and went over to Jefferson. "Hey, Jeff. Adrienne just gave birth but why do you have such a long face on? Did you want a son instead or something?" Jefferson responded rudely, "It doesn't matter to me whether it's a boy or a girl. That little girl is our daughter, and I'll love her no matter what." Sierra continued, "Why do you look so upset then?" "Must I have a reason for that?" Well, he was angry at himself. Adrienne had almost lost her life in the labor room earlier, but he hadn't been able to offer any help. Throughout Adrienne's pregnancy, Jefferson had done an enormous amount of research and found out that a C-section birth was relatively safer. Hence, he'd insisted that Adrienne und
...... Johan was still clamming up. Maxtor was so anxious that he couldn't stand still. "Johan, what happened between you and Sierra? Can't you at least explain the situation to me?" After a long silence, Johan looked up and out of the window. "There have been so many fights and misunderstandings between us in the past years and it seems that the past was a time that we can never go back to." Upon hearing this, Maxtor seemed to have put his finger on the crux of the problem. "Did Miranda make Sierra misunderstand you?" Maxtor said earnestly, "Johan, I've told you before that woman has a twisted psyche and you need to stay away from her. You pitied her for being an orphan, but look at what she has been up to." "It has nothing to do with Miranda. It's me. If I..." If he had explained everything to Sierra back then, she wouldn't have felt that insecure about their relationship. He knew everything, but he still got mad at her. Maxtor continued, "He
...... On the first day of school, Miranda was once again met with an unpredicted truth. She found out that Sierra was the top scorer in the entrance exam. She was the overachiever that every university was dying to recruit. Not only did Sierra come from a good family, but she was smart and beautiful to boot. Sierra possessed everything she could have in life. Miranda couldn't figure out why she had to take Johan away from her when she already had so much. What made Miranda even more disappointed was not her inferiority but Johan. On the first day of school, she was over the moon to see that Johan was at the gate to receive her. However, when Johan took her luggage from her and she was wallowing in her excitement to see him, He said to her, "Miranda, that is the girl I like, Sierra. She will be your sister-in-law in the future. You should get on well with her." She didn't want to be nice to her. Instead, she hated her. Mirand
...... Johan's words frightened Miranda so much that her face turned pale. "Johan, Mrs. Silas adopted me. I would have died a long time ago if it weren't for her. How could I have nothing to do with the Silas family?" Johan's face was somber, and his voice chilled Miranda to her bones. "You know that my mother was the one who took you in, but look at what you've been up to all these years?" "Johan, what-what did I do?" Miranda said, trembling with fear. Miranda was an expert at feigning a pitiful appearance and reaping sympathy from others. She even managed to tear up and gazed heart-wrenchingly at Johan at that very moment. However, Johan did not buy into her ploy at all. Not only did his eyes demonstrate her no pity, there was also a trace of disdain that Miranda had never seen before. He loathed her. Upon realizing that, Miranda's heart was broken. Johan had been her dream for those past years. She had worked so hard to do so many things in
...... Sierra wasn't able to refute because what Miranda said was the truth. It was indeed true that many could never compare with her background. However, although she was born privileged, that didn't spare her from putting in effort for her own future. Prestigious universities wanted her because she was the top scorer in the entrance exam but not because of her family background and connections. All of a sudden, Miranda smirked sinisterly. "I know you like Johan, and you want to be with him. Sierra, I like him too, and I want to be with him. You have everything so why do you still want to take my man away from me?" "Excuse me? Who took your man?" Displeased, Sierra said, "Miranda, you were the one who told me that you two were siblings, and that there was nothing going on between you guys. And mind you, you were also the one who encouraged me to go after him." Miranda shouted in a low voice, "Sierra, if I hadn't told you that, would you have remained fri
...... Averting her gaze, Sierra turned around with difficulty. However, just as she had taken a step forward, Miranda's voice sounded from behind. "Sierra, I didn't expect you to come to the airport to pick me up. Imagine my delight to be able to see you on the first day of my return." "You've misunderstood, Miss Attwood. I'm not here to pick you up." Sierra did not conceal her hatred for Miranda as she could not even be bothered to dole out the niceties at her. Miranda chuckled. "I haven't seen you for so many years, but you're still so adorable." It seemed that Miranda couldn't sense the despise Sierra had for her. She approached Sierra with a smile and wanted to give her a hug. Sierra stared at Miranda's outstretched arms and quickly dodged her. A single glance at Miranda and her eyes would be sullied. Sierra thought that she would even throw up should her body come into contact with Miranda's. Miranda was never good at reading between the
...... Stopping her car, Sierra quickly got off to check the situation. No sooner had her feet been on the ground that four men got off from the car in front of her and surrounded her. One of them pointed at her and barked, "Don't you f*cking know how to drive? If you don't, then don't drive. Say it, how much are you going to pay for the damage!" Sierra was driving in accordance to normalcy, but the other party had, so suddenly, cut into her lane without a signal. As hard as she had stepped on her brake, she still collided with the car. They were supposed to be the ones held accountable for the collision. However, they got out of the car and shouted at her, extorting compensation. Sierra suspected that these men had done so deliberately to scam her. She took out her mobile phone and was ready to call the police. However, before she could even unlock her phone, one of the men had already wrenched the phone away from her. "We have something important t
...... In the middle of cleaning the table, Rosie said, "He doesn't only come here to have meals, but he would also get one to go every time. No jalapenos on the one to go. He says that you can't take spices because your stomach doesn't handle it well." Sierra did have a stomach problem, but it wasn't till the point that she couldn't take spicy food at all. Moreover, Johan had never brought any tacos back for her. Sierra figured that he was probably getting it for someone else so she asked, "What did he say to you when he asked you to pack it?" Rosie smiled and said, "He said that he was going to bring it for his girlfriend. He's obviously talking about you, isn't he?" "Oh, his girlfriend." Smiling, Sierra did not put forth any more questions as she knew that Johan had never regarded her as his girlfriend. For him, she was nothing more like a leech that he couldn't shake off. Rosie looked at Sierra and said earnestly, "I know you two fought tod
...... "My ability to act coy?" Sierra said inwardly. She had no idea from where did his temper sneak in again. However, she knew that somehow everything she had done seemed to piss him off. If he didn't like her, then why did he come looking for her? Did he have nothing else better to do? She smiled and said, "Mr. Silas, since you don't like being around me, then let's not meet anymore in the future, nor have any meals together. I'm afraid your appetite will take a nosedive when you see me." "You shouldn't say that, Sierra." Rosie handed one of the plates to Sierra and said, "Every couple gets into fights, but you must know your boundaries. Some words are too hurtful, and you shouldn't just say everything that comes to your mind." Sierra didn't make a sound. She wasn't a fan of others poking their noses in her affairs. Besides, she was not close to Rosie either so she found her rather meddlesome. Rosie didn't seem to register in her mind that Sierra was d
