She felt as if her waist was about to break. When she left, she went to the bathroom to take a shower and found that there were some marks on her waist from his grip. She did not know whether it was because her skin was too delicate or whether it was because he was too strong.

Her cell phone then rang; it was a phone call from Julian. Julian was the one who had sent her back, and he was still waiting in front of Old Pierce Manor.

“Did your mother say anything?”

Julian was worried that Ophelia or Greg would reprimand Nora because she came back late, so he had been waiting outside the gate. He would rush in and take all the blame if they were really reprimanding her.

Nora replied weakly, “No…”

Julian could hear the tiredness in her voice and smiled slightly. “Are you very tired?”

Nora snorted. Julian’s tone sounded extremely enthusiastic and arrogant as he said, “You should be tired…”

Nora did not want to hear him say such shameless words, so she simply replied, “I’m going to ha

    Jason actually owned a villa. He was naturally willing to invite Miya to live in his huge villa with him. He would not even ask her for rent, but she would surely think of him as a playboy in that case. Therefore, he could only move closer to her. After all, this was the only way for him to get closer to her.The nature of their work was completely different, so he could not join the company she worked at to get close to her. Thus, he could only live next to her so that he could try and get closer to her.However, he kept the matter of him renting the house opposite hers a secret so she would not know that he had become her neighbor for the time being. Otherwise, he would have to go through another round of trouble if she found out about this matter in advance and decided to move to another house. It so happened that the house across from her was also up for rent this time, but he might not be so lucky the next time.Not long after Jason had returned to his room, Julian came in.

    Besides, Nora understood Rowan’s character after spending more than a year with him. She knew that Rowan would not care about anything when he wanted to torment a person, so she knew that he would be stubborn and intent on making Julian feel uncomfortable. Nora wanted to leave first as well to avoid the meeting with both parties’ parents that Julian had asked for. Therefore, she had no choice but to secretly leave the United States without informing Julian in advance. Julian was furious when he learned that Nora had secretly returned to the United States. He had initially set a time for their parents to meet up, and he had even asked a lawyer to draft up an agreement for the transfer of shares. He had also drafted a copy of the agreement for Jason. He was just waiting for both parties’ parents to meet so that he could present this betrothal gift. His initial intention in calling her was to inform her of the time he had arranged for them to meet so that she could consult her paren

    After Rowan had left, Nora sighed softly as she looked at his desolate back. She could somewhat feel some of Rowan’s pain, but she was unable to comfort him.Her cell phone rang again, and it was still Julian who was calling.Nora answered the call, and the first thing she did was to explain why the previous call ended. However, she did not say that it was Rowan who had hung up the call on purpose. “I’m sorry. I accidentally pressed on the button and ended the call just now.”Julian snorted coldly on the other end of the line and said, “It was Rowan who ended the call, right?!”Julian had understood all of Rowan’s tricks and methods now. He knew Nora very well as well. He even knew that it was probably Rowan who had instigated Nora to secretly return to the United States without informing him in advance. Nora was silent. They both knew of each other’s methods and moves very well, so she did not need to say anything at all.Julian softened his tone a little and asked, “When wil

    Mrs. Maton was so angry that she was speechless. Mr. Maton quickly comforted her, “Our children have their own blessings, right? They are only doing this for the harmony and happiness of their respective families, so we should be glad.”“Glad?” Mrs. Maton reprimanded Mr. Maton at the same time. “What if both Nora and Miya dumped them one day? They’d be completely destitute with nothing left!”Jason did not like the sound of that, so he muttered in a low voice, “Mom, why do you make us out to be so miserable?”“How dare you retort me?! It’s fine if your brother gives the shares away to Nora since they have already reconciled, but you’re giving your shares away to Miya when she’s ignoring you.” The more Mrs. Maton spoke, the angrier she was, so she scolded Jason, “Aren’t you being a little short-sighted?”Jason continued to smile and said, “If short-sighted people can be postgraduates, doesn’t that mean that normal people must have doctorates, then?”“Hey!” Mrs. Maton was so angry t

    Miya did not accept the bottle of red wine from Jason, making it clear that she was dissatisfied with his move to live across from her.Jason explained his behavior in a clear and logical manner. “Since I’ve decided to pursue you, we have to go through the process of getting to know each other better. It will make it easier for us to get to know each other if we live closer to each other, right?”Miya crossed her arms in front of her chest and replied indifferently, “I’m not interested in you, so I don’t need to know you.”Jason remained unshaken and said, “In that case, I can get to know you better, then.”He then felt that something was wrong, so he said again, “No, I don’t need to get to know you better. I like you no matter what you’re like.”These words could be said to be sweet nothings. Miya’s frown deepened. He could sweet talk so well and had a brother like Julian, so his sincerity was greatly compromised. In fact, Jason was also surprised after saying these words. He

    When the party ended, both Wendy and Miya had already drunk too much. Caleb came to pick Wendy up, and he carried her downstairs directly. Although Silvia had not drunk at all, Ryan had come to pick Silvia up as well as it was already very late.When Ryan saw Jason at Miya’s house, he could not help but take another look at Jason. The first thought that came to Ryan’s mind was he did not expect that this kid was actually serious. As the owner of the apartment, Miya sent the two of them off unsteadily. After everything had cleared up, only Miya and Jason were left in Miya’s apartment. After closing the door and turning around, Miya remembered Jason’s existence when she saw him in the room. She placed one hand on the wall to support herself, then she pointed at the doorway and said, “Young man, it’s time for you to go…”After saying that, Miya walked toward the sofa and almost fell when she stumbled. Jason stepped forward to catch her, and the two of them fell on the sofa together.

    Miya felt awkward when he called her by name. When did they become so familiar that he was actually following in Silvia and Wendy’s footsteps and calling her by her first name? However, she knew that it was not the right time for her to question him about this matter over the phone. Therefore, she got straight to the point and said, “Thank you for last night.”He laughed softly on the other end of the line. “Why don’t you do me a favor if you really want to thank me?”Miya felt that this was a trap. He wanted her to do him a favor if she really wanted to thank him, so if she did not help him, did that mean that her gratitude was not sincere?Miya had a headache. She only regarded him as a simple young boy, but why did it seem as if he had so many tricks up his sleeves? He even made a person like her, who had been in the workforce for several years, feel a little overwhelmed. He took her silence as acquiescence and asked her out seriously on the other end of the line. “My unive

    “It’s okay, Mrs. Maton. I’m not tired.” She then quickly entered the kitchen.Mrs. Maton continued praising Julian in front of Ophelia. “Ansel and I were always busy with work when Julian was young, so he took care of everything at home, especially when it came to taking care of Jason. Ansel and I didn’t have to worry at all. Julian developed his good cooking skills at that time.”Mrs. Maton was quite emotional as she continued, “I really feel sorry for him when I think about it now. He took care of everything for us from a young age, so I didn’t care much about his relationship with women when he grew up. I simply let him do as he pleased when I thought of how I'd let him down when he was young.”At this point, Mrs. Maton added, “If I had known that Julian would get together with Nora, I would have trained him to be a good man at all costs.”Mr. Maton coughed lightly and reminded Mrs. Maton, “Listen to yourself—you’re making it seem as if Julian is not a good man now.”Mrs. Maton

    Evelyn was worried about this, but Rowan did not take it seriously as he said, “This small amount of snow is nothing.”Evelyn was extremely worried. The temperature was so low now, so the road must be icy. The snow was too heavy and would block his sight. Evelyn did not want him to be in any danger, so she suggested in a low voice, “It’s better if you don’t go back.”Rowan looked at her in surprise and smiled as he asked, “Where will I stay if I don’t go back? Do you want me to stay in the car all night?”Evelyn shook her head and said, “Y-You can go home with me.”She had just taken the initiative to invite a man to spend the night at her home. It was truly embarrassing for a shy girl like Evelyn to say these words, but she was willing to do so for his safety.“My mother should be asleep now, and she wakes up later in the morning. We can just leave before she wakes up in the morning.”She explained with a red face, “Don’t misunderstand me. I just don’t want you to be in danger o

    She held her cell phone and said hurriedly, “I’ll go down right now.”She ended the call and hurriedly put on her down jacket. She was wearing warm and soft polar fleece home clothes. She did not have time to change, so she simply put on a down jacket and went out. She opened the door and walked out stealthily, out of fear that she would wake Helena up, and Helena would find out that she was going down to meet Rowan in the middle of the night. Helena would surely think that this kind of behavior was inappropriate. When passing by the living room, Evelyn glanced in the direction of Helena’s bedroom. The lights had been turned off, so she was probably asleep. Helena’s physical condition was not as good as it was before the surgery. After all, she was getting older and had undergone craniotomy, which was a major surgery, so she could not keep up mentally and physically. She would go to bed very early at night and wake up late in the morning.After Evelyn left the house quietly, sh

    Cassie’s expression turned ugly when she heard Helena’s words. She was shocked and humiliated as she asked in disbelief, “Is it Rowan Pierce?”Cassie knew that it was the Pierces and Matons who were maliciously targeting the Sullivans. Julian and Nora had just gotten married, and it was said that Julian loved Nora very much, so it could not be Julian.As the person in charge of the Pierces, Ryan was a married man as well, and the couple usually kept a low profile and rarely displayed their affection. However, Cassie heard that Ryan’s wife had just given birth to a son, and it was widely known that Ryan was a family man now.Rowan was the only single man, so could it be Rowan?Cassie recalled the scene when she saw Rowan shopping with them in the mall that day. At the time, she wondered why Rowan would be willing to go shopping with them, but now, it seemed that he was there for Evelyn’s sake. Cassie was so stunned when she thought of this that she felt like she would choke on a m

    In the end, Natalie was pushed to a dead end and had no choice but to hold a press conference in a hurry. During the press conference, she cried and apologized for the plagiarism and the fact that she had looked for someone to draw a design for her, and announced that she would be quitting the design world.However, few people accepted her apology or showed sympathy for her even though she apologized and admitted her mistakes. The general public opinion was still scolding her in various ways, so Barry simply drove Natalie home and asked her to stay at home to avoid the limelight. One night after Natalie’s incident, Evelyn was accompanying Helena on a stroll in the neighborhood when they ran into Cassie.Natalie’s life had been completely gloomy and dark in the past few days, but Evelyn’s life was stable and practical.Rowan insisted on picked her up from work every morning. If Rowan was at the company at noon, the two would have lunch together. Considering that Helena would be at

    Natalie never expected that Rowan would play these dirty tricks behind her back. She did not know that Rowan was best at these tricks. She had cried and begged Barry to plead for mercy on her behalf, but when Barry came back, he told her that there was no room for redemption. She was desperate and was filled with hatred and resentment. Over the years, she had tried every means possible to trample all over Evelyn, but in the end, she was the one who suffered the most and could not turn her life around. Natalie clenched her teeth angrily in hatred as she dug her nails into her palms and tried to calm her emotions. So what if her career in design was ruined? She never truly liked this industry anyway. She had only learned it at the beginning in order to crush Evelyn. She could still do other things even if she did not do design, right? There were so many different industries in this world, so she did not have to make a living in jewelry design. Besides, she was a Stewart, so s

    She laughed loudly when she was happy, shed tears when she was sad, never hid her true self, and was a frank and sincere person. Why wouldn’t men like such a girl?Rowan laughed. He did not mean to slander Selena; he was simply analyzing Selena’s current situation from his perspective as a man. Selena might indeed be a good girl in Evelyn’s eyes. After all, Evelyn was a woman who only cared about Selena’s personality, but men paid more attention to a woman’s temperament and charm sometimes. Everyone naturally had their own preferences. For example, Rowan preferred someone simple like Evelyn, whereas some men might prefer someone with a stronger personality like Selena. Evelyn had to call Charles after she could not reach Selena. “Charles, is Selena home? I can’t seem to reach her on her cell phone.”Charles frowned when he heard Evelyn’s words. “She’s not back yet. You can’t reach her on her cell phone?”“I can’t. I tried calling her several times, but her cell phone is switch

    He was wrong. He was really wrong. He treated the person he wanted to protect so coldly and harshly. It seemed that he had not been in a relationship for too long that he had forgotten how to love. Fortunately, it only took him this once to understand the crux of his problem. Therefore, he stroked her cheek gently and reassured her in a deep voice, “It won’t happen again.”Evelyn chose to smile slightly in relief in response to his apology and assurance.When two people are together, they need to understand and accommodate each other in terms of personality, temperament, and living habits. Since they had only officially been together for a day, this was even more essential for them. As he said, he was an ordinary man, and she was an ordinary woman. Their relationship was that of an ordinary couple, so it was normal for them to quarrel, have disagreements, and lose their temper. Evelyn felt that there was nothing that could not be solved as long as it did not involve principles

    “Getting dinner!” Rowan announced angrily, then he placed her in the passenger seat, got into the car, and drove away. Evelyn had no other objections since they were going to eat. Anyway, she had already called Helena earlier to tell her that she would not be going back for dinner tonight as she would be having dinner with Selena. Not long after the two had gotten into the car and driven out, Selena called and asked Evelyn worriedly, “Evelyn, how did it go? Did you manage to coax him yet?”As Rowan was sitting next to her, Evelyn could not answer whether she had managed to coax him. Therefore, she hesitated without saying anything.When Selena heard this, she knew that they must not have reconciled yet, so she gave her advice on the other end of the line. “It’s fine. There’s no man that can’t be coaxed. Just one kiss will do. If he still can’t be coaxed, give him two kisses. If that doesn’t work, just kiss him all over until he’s no longer angry!”Selena’s voice was loud enough,

    Selena’s tone was full of annoyance as she said, “I initially thought of giving Evelyn a surprise, but it turned out to be a shock!”Selena had good intentions as well; she just wanted to introduce the most handsome, stylish, and reliable man that she knew to Evelyn, but it turned out to be self-defeating. As for Shane, who was to be introduced to Evelyn, he simply stood there leisurely the whole time, looking at the three of them as if he was watching a good show. He watched as they got jealous, explained themselves, and felt depressed. Even though both Evelyn and Selena had explained the whole story entirely, Rowan still felt angry and annoyed.After glaring angrily at Evelyn, he simply turned around and walked away.Evelyn and Selena could only exchange glances as they were at a loss for what to do.In the end, Evelyn said to Selena helplessly, “I’ll go and see how he’s doing.
