Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 141 A Huge Shift in the Wind
In her despair, Hathaway started calling Darwin again. She didn't know when Darwin found out about those videos. She just wanted to explain to him. That day, she drank too much and somehow ended up hanging out with a group of people. She woke up filled with regret. Ever since she found out that there was hope of marrying Darwin, she hadn't spent time with those people for a long time.And when she first started hanging out with them, it was because she was drunk, forced to do so.However, she couldn't reach Darwin on the phone anymore. Not only that, on her family's side, they found a stronger reason than Eric's incident for Darwin's revenge and insistence on breaking off the engagement.Just as Darwin himself said, it was because she was too open-minded and had loose morals in her personal life. He didn’t want to be with someone like that. Hathaway was relieved of her duties in the Ross family. The Ross family sent her younger sister, who was two years younger, to Armie Country to ha

The Public Relations Department carefully reported the online trends to Darwin.Darwin breathed a sigh of relief.“Mr. Solomon, many people have been cursing at you. Would you like”…""No need, let them curse." Darwin waved his hand."Some people planned meticulously to destroy Secretary Woods, but they didn't expect that Secretary Woods, with her own charisma, could turn the tables." The PR director found it miraculous as well and she had analyzed it with her team. The reasons were nothing more than Fiona being a perfect victim.She was beautiful, kind, passionate about public welfare, and had strong work skills. The only downside was that she was with a not-so-good man. Although in the end, this particular point made people even more sympathetic towards her."Hmm." Darwin responded.The PR director could tell that he was exhausted, so she said a few more words and hung up the phone on her own initiative.After a while, Fiona came back.Darwin quickly approached her. "Are you hungry?

On this night, Darwin had a bit too much to drink. He appeared normal, but he couldn't walk in a straight line anymore. Fiona didn't care about him anymore. But when he got drunk, Darwin became much bolder. Since leaving the restaurant, he had been relying on Fiona, holding her hand, and no matter how she tried to let go, he wouldn't release his grip. Fiona was furious and even kicked him in the car.The driver in the front seat was visibly shaken.Mr. Solomon, on the other hand, looked hurt but refused to let go, mumbling, "Fiona, you kicked me so hard!"Then Secretary Woods replied, “Why didn’t it hurt you to death!”In the end, after scolding him, Secretary Woods didn't continue to attack. When they arrived at their destination and got off the car, Darwin was still clinging to Fiona. Fiona supported him and led him back to their room. Originally, the plan was to push him onto the bed and leave. But Darwin was good at being clingy, so in the end, Fiona pushed him and he took the opp

"Help! Can anyone save us? My son and his family are on flight 2891!"Ashton stood there, observing the increasingly chaotic crowd. The buzzing sound in her ears and her weakening limbs overwhelmed her."2891... 2891..." she trembled and pulled out her phone, opening her chat history with Fiona."KMHS2891, arriving at 4:37 PM," it read.Ashton thought she must have read it wrong and looked at it again several times. Suddenly, her surroundings spun around her.When Darwin received the call, he had just put Lilian to sleep. He walked over to the window and listened toJackie crying on the other end, his brows furrowing. "Whose plane crashed?""KMHS2891, the flight from Asia to Bay City. Mr. Solomon!! Secretary Woods is on board!"Darwin still couldn't comprehend what was happening. "Have you been drinking at noon? Don't talk nonsense!" Darwin angrily lowered his voice."Mr. Solomon... it's true..."Jackie seemed to have started crying.Darwin abruptly hung up, feeling irritated. He immedi

"Take down all these reports and hot searches! Is the PR department full of dead people?" Darwin saw the hot search and erupted in anger. "She is just missing, not dead! No!""Darwin, have you lost your mind enough?" Wyatt came in from outside, with a scruffy beard and messy hair.Darwin coldly glanced at him, "What are you here for?""The PR department's phones are blowing up with inquiries from major media outlets about Fiona." Wyatt's face turned grim. "I'm asking you, should we release the obituary?"Darwin charged at him directly, grabbing Wyatt and slamming him against the wall. "She's not dead, why should we release an obituary?""Whether she's dead or not, don't you have any idea? How many times have you confirmed that she indeed boarded the plane? How could she survive if the plane crashed like that? Tell me, how could she survive?" Wyatt raised his hand and punched Darwin square in the face. He punched with all his might. The punch made Darwin take two steps back.These past

In a daze, Lilian heard Darwin cry out in pain."Where does it hurt? Darwin, tell me where it hurts," Lilian gently asked.At that moment, Darwin's gaze suddenly fell upon her, and his previously hazy eyes brightened. He grabbed hold of Lilian.Honestly, Lilian was happy in that instant but the happiness was short-lived. Because in the next second, before Darwin lost consciousness, he called her, "Fiona, you've come back? I missed you, missed you..."Lilian looked at the unconscious Darwin, and it finally dawned on her. So Darwin mistook her for Fiona. Has she become the substitute for her own substitute?Darwin's serious illness lasted until the following spring, gradually showing signs of improvement.In the meantime, Anniston his mom escaped from the mental institution and, by taking advantage of Darwin's illness, tried to regain control of the Solomons with the help of the Soloman family's collateral branches.The commotion was intense. There were even rumors that Darwin was criti

After tending to the babies, Janna went straight to Fiona's side. She found Fiona exhausted, deep in sleep. Ashton and the two nannies were taking care of things nearby. Upon seeing Janna, Ashton's eyes reddened as she stood up. "Grandma, Fiona has really suffered this time!" she cried. Janna patted her hand gently, saying, "Giving birth is no easy feat, especially to twins."Fiona had intended to deliver naturally, but complications led to a cesarean section. Ashton wanted to say more, feeling sorry for Fiona who had endured so much pain to give birth to Darwin's children, only for him to reconcile with his first love. How appalling!Janna stayed by Fiona's side, wiping her hands and face. It wasn't until midnight that Fiona awoke. "You're back..." she greeted Janna weakly. They hadn't been close in recent months, and during childbirth, Fiona had thought of her mother again, knowing her own birth hadn't been easy."Thank you for your hard work," Janna said tenderly, holding Fiona's h
Last Updated : 2024-01-26Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 148 Five Years Later
Initially, Lilian was angry, but after being ignored by Darwin for so long, her feelings waned. Fiona was deceased; how could she lose to someone who was no longer there? Over time, Lilian began altering her appearance to resemble Fiona's—year after year, until five years had elapsed.She remained employed at Solomon. Initially desiring a secretarial role, she was rebuffed by Darwin. Her significant involvement in the Anniston incident led to Darwin assigning her to the sales department, located a considerable distance from the president's office on the 6th floor. Lilian worked tirelessly, making her presence known to Darwin at every opportunity.On business trips, she risked her self-respect by appearing at Darwin's door in a nightgown. Despite this, he never reciprocated her advances, offering only occasional, vacant stares.Outside of work, Lilian saw little of Darwin. He spent much of the year in Serene City or alone in Bay City, in the apartment he once shared with Fiona. Lilian'

As Ashton was sorting through the gifts, she too was reflecting on everything."Isn't my life just a series of bizarre twists?" she mumbled, looking down. "Finding out Chris was secretly going on blind dates behind my back, then breaking up. Watching him get engaged, and seeing my own mom take his fiancée's side, leading to our fallout. That should have been my rock bottom, right?"Fiona nodded in agreement.The day Ashton cut ties with her mom, she'd even bought her a plane ticket. She wanted to send her to some tranquil getaway for a much-needed vacation to relax and rejuvenate."Who would've guessed? Right after the falling out with my mom—a spur-of-the-moment decision—I ended up marrying Kenny. I was so down on my luck, I thought, 'How much worse can it get?'” Ashton chuckled ironically, then softened a bit. "But, who could have predicted how good Kenny would turn out to be? How he'd respect every single wish of mine."It was a kind of care that she hadn't felt since her dad had l
Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 258 The Fiery Passion of a Godfather**
Fiona was actually surprised. After all, she wasn't a saint without desires. It all made sense to just go with the flow and do what naturally came next. She might only berate herself later for succumbing to her cravings. But Darwin stopped, and that was beyond her expectations. In the past, this would have been unthinkable. It seemed as though... he really had learned to respect her.She pressed a quick, rewarding peck onto Darwin's lips, smiled, and teased, 'Mr. Solomon, maybe you should head to the bathroom?”Her smile was captivating and bright, causing Darwin's past five years of distressing memories to resurface. He pulled her into his arms again."Wife, I miss you so much, I'm starting to lose my mind," Darwin's voice shook, betraying his emotional turmoil. "I keep seeing your shadow at home, but when I chase after it, there's nothing... Thank goodness... this time I've really got you in my arms."Fiona listened to his voice laced with sobs, her heart aching with each word."Ser
Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 257 Leaving a Mark
Darwin had always been self-centered in matters of intimacy. Whenever he desired, she couldn't refuse.In her haziness, Fiona felt like she was back in those times again."Don't be afraid."Sensing her anxiety and unease, Darwin softened, kissing her lips again and coaxing her with his gentle voice, "I won't force you. I'll wait until you're ready to truly accept me."In Fiona's misty eyes, desire began to cloud her vision. Her gaze often seemed distant and disconnected. As Darwin kissed her, her mind turned into mush, instinctively she kissed him back softly.Mr. Solomon just stood there, silent, his towering frame taut."You know exactly how to torture me," Darwin groaned, voice hoarse, as he peppered her neck with more fervent kisses."Be gentle..." Fiona clenched his hand. "You'll leave marks!"Darwin chuckled lowly, then tilted her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze, "Why fear my marks? Scared that man will see and get jealous?""No, it's not that…" Fiona turned away with a sligh
Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 256 A Taste of Sweetness
Once finished, the anxiety within Lilian began to subside.Just wait a little longer, Lilian. All these nuisances will soon vanish.And then, you'll be there for Darwin with all your gentle warmth. He’ll eventually be moved, realizing you're the one for him...Lilian took a deep breath and exhaled.On her way out, she passed by the flower shop where Darwin made his purchase. From a distance, she had only glimpsed the type of flowers Darwin had bought and decided to buy the same kind.Inside the apartment, Darwin silenced his phone and tossed it aside."Why didn't you tell me? Worried I'd take Lilian's side?" he pulled her close and asked earnestly.For five years, she had lived in Lilian’s shadow, a daily reminder that she was merely a stand-in and that Lilian was the more important one—a notion that had likely seeped into her very marrow.This realization made Darwin wish he could travel back in time to give his younger self a good thrashing.He
Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 255 Buying Peace of Mind
"The only person I've ever schemed for was Solomon. What could possibly make you believe I'd harm someone I don’t even know, like Miss Rhoads?" Lilian asked. "If that's truly how you see me, maybe it'd be better if you just kicked me out of Solomon's life..."Darwin had promised to protect Lilian.Hearing her say this, he felt a twinge of guilt.But...Darwin feared even more that because of the thorn that was Lilian, his wife’s heart, which had just started to soften toward him, would turn cold again.He was walking on eggshells just to avoid pushing her away.So..."I'm sorry, Lilian," Darwin said flatly. "There's no room for discussion."Lilian sat frozen in the car, as if her blood was slowly turning to ice.Even in her early days back in the country, Darwin had never protected Fiona like this.He used to drop everything to be at Lilian's side whenever she needed him, leaving Fiona behind.Now...Even when she tried to befriend Che
Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 254 Striking First?
Fiona gazed at Darwin, his face inexplicably brimming with pride."Lilian places great value on the RH Company project." She kept to herself the fact that Lilian had plagiarized her proposal, but Fiona wasn't about to let it slide.This was simply a clash of interests, and she felt no need to drag Darwin further into the fray, avoiding the mess of tangled priorities."Hmm," Darwin's smile faded slightly, "Her proposal is indeed impressive, but it pales in comparison to yours."Fiona studied him intently, searching his face for any hint of romantic sentiment towards Lilian.Her search ended in vain."What are you looking at?" Darwin pulled her closer by the waist, gazing up at her.Fiona brushed her fingertips gently across his cheek, causing him to nuzzle into her hand like a kitten seeking affection."Don't stay away too long, come back soon," he whispered softly, his voice barely a murmur.What he truly wanted to say was, "Don't leave."Thei
Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 253 Withdrawing Solomon
Darwin had no clue about the sunny-side up egg story. Upon hearing it, his gaze immediately sought Fiona's.Fiona was clutching her burger too tight."Oh, why bring that up, mother?" the daughter-in-law chided softly, "I'm sorry about this.""It's fine," Fiona shook her head gently.Seeing Granny distressed, she excused herself to rest.Fiona stared at her burger, lost in thought.She had never imagined it.Her death had cast such a shadow, not only over her loved ones, but over those beyond her immediate circle.“It’s okay.” Darwin soothed her gently.Fiona cast another glance toward where the Hamburger Lady had disappeared and bowed her head to eat slowly.If the Hamburger Lady was so affected...What about Darwin?She had never been fully convinced of Darwin's love for her. It always seemed to her that his treatment of her was nothing more than possessiveness.Like an old belonging he didn’t want to discard, nor did he want anyo
Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 252 The Entanglement Continues
Darwin sat in the treatment room with Fiona sitting beside him, scrolling through messages on her phone, while a doctor attended to Darwin's wound."The wound's not too deep, but it's not superficial either. You'll have to watch your diet," the doctor advised after dressing the wound."Got it, thank you for your help," Fiona put away her phone and politely thanked the doctor.Then they left the treatment room together.Darwin's face was brimming with relief, "We really didn't have to come to the hospital for this."Fiona didn't look at him.Leading the way, she said over her shoulder, "I'm here to prevent someone from using their wounds as an excuse to get me to come back."At that,the joy visibly drained from Darwin's face."I would never do that," he murmured softly.Fiona finally stopped and turned to look at him, "Mr. Solomon, you're becoming shamelessly unprincipled. Aren't you embarrassed to say such things?""Hungry?" Darwin steppe

We hope that while guiding these industries through current challenges, we can also preserve the essence of the company's original culture as much as possible. Furthermore, we aim to highlight the significant contributions that RH Company has made to Armie Country and its citizens during challenging times. Monsoon Investment sincerely wishes to join hands with the esteemed shareholders of RH Company, to usher in the next era of brilliance,” Fiona concluded her address with a respectful bow.As she stepped down from the podium, the auditorium was quieter than expected.In contrast to the heated reactions to Lilian’s proposal, Fiona’s approach landed like a heavy punch right at the heart of RH Company’s shareholders. Lilian's face turned particularly sour.Chelsea's new strategy represented a complete shift.While the first proposal seemed, at first glance, to have a stronger pull on pe
