"Oh," Fiona replied coldly."Take them away," Stuart directed the people behind him, who quickly stepped forward to remove the flowers and alcohol.Fiona placed her own offerings, her sunglasses concealing the tears streaming down her face. Gazing at the smiling faces on the tombstone, she silently thought, "Mom, grandparents, I hope you can forgive my absence these past five years. My babies have grown up healthy, protected by your spirits."She tenderly touched the children's heads."Stuart, Chicago, these are your grandmother, great-grandfather, and great-grandmother," Fiona introduced.Ashton had briefed the children beforehand, and Fiona had recounted their family stories to them many times.Stuart was the first to react. He knelt down immediately and bowed his head. Chicago hesitated, then followed suit."Grandma and ancestors, don't worry about Mommy. Stuart is strong and will protect Mommy and his big brother," Stuart declared, clumsily joining his hands together in a solemn p

"Family elders enjoy sparring. I often join them, that's all. You're pretty good too," Fiona said with easy grace.Family elders?Roy had heard that this lady might come from the Rhoads family. The elder in her family, could that be the famous Janna?"I'm willing to admit defeat. Bring the young master over to my place one day to pick something he likes.""No problem." Fiona answered with a smile. "Roy, you didn't invite me over just to play tennis, right? Time is precious, shall we sit down and talk? You can share some of your thoughts with me."Roy replied with a smile, "Then let's talk over tea."The two of them headed for the lounge.At that moment, someone called out to Roy.Is that Mr. Roy?"That voice... Fiona was taken aback for a moment.Roy turned around, his smile fading slightly, "Long time no see, last time was at Solomon's celebration, wasn't it?""That was years ago; you have a good memory," Lilian spoke, her gaze drifting to the slender figure. "And this is...?"Fiona
Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 159 Can't Lose to Her
After a pleasant dinner together, Roy and Lilian enjoyed their conversation immensely.When parting, Roy sincerely said, "To be honest, I have great admiration for you, Miss Robbins. If it were up to me, I would definitely put this deal in your hands. But... Chelsea has impressed all of our shareholders with her capabilities, there's hardly a day when someone isn't recommending her to me!"Lilian's smile remained unwavering."Chelsea has indeed fought some impressive battles these past few years. Not just your shareholders, I admire her myself. However, most of her clients are not from our side, and I'm afraid she might struggle to adapt to Armie Country."That was also Roy's concern.Even with last year's success with the national enterprise case, he still had his reservations.This was one reason why he didn't go straight into a partnership with Monsoon Investment and instead welcomed other companies to submit competing proposals."In any case, I have utmost confidence in both Solom
Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 160 Moral Support?
In the heart of the city, there was a florist's shop, its dim yellow light visible through the fine rain.The somewhat plump shopkeeper leaned on the counter, looking bored, apparently waiting for someone.She glanced at the time.It was nearly eleven, surely the major client wouldn't come now?Just as she considered closing up for the night, the chime of the doorbell sounded.The shopkeeper straightened up immediately.At the entrance stood a man in a black suit, tall, with a dampness about him, walking in."Mr. Solomon, I thought you weren't coming!" The shopkeeper greeted him with a cheerful smile."I got held up on a business trip." Darwin spoke casually, "The flowers?""I've kept them for you!" The shopkeeper quickly brought out the flowers. "I still suggest that I deliver them to your place regularly, to save you the trouble.""No need." he refused as always and then left.After he departed, the shopkeeper belatedly realized that the gentleman hadn't carried an umbrella.She hes

The conference room slowly emptied as people trickled out."Mr. Solomon is clearly playing favorites with Lilian!" hissed a few who had voiced their concerns earlier."Not necessarily." said Henry, who had been mostly silent, smiling at several people nearby."Henry, you've been with Mr. Solomon for over seven years. Do you have a different opinion about what just happened?" Henry replied with a chuckle, "Mr. Solomon is inscrutable; even I can't guess his intentions. But, do any of you really think Miss Robbins can compete with Chelsea?"The group exchanged glances uncertainly.Not waiting for a response, Henry grabbed his things and left.Miss Chelsea's style was decisive and efficient, swift like a cutting blade.Many seasoned veterans on Wall Street couldn't best her, and Lilian... He could admit that she had skills, but Chelsea was out of her league. Even compared to the former Secretary Woods, she fell short.She was all about opportunism.Had it not been for Mr. Solomon's name
Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 162 The Constitution of Blood and Storms
It was like the moment Mr. Solomon first saw Secretary Woods and couldn't take his eyes off her, keeping her by his side as a substitute for Miss Robbins.Thinking about what Secretary Woods went through all those years.Henry didn't dwell on it and made up his mind.One such incident was enough.Best not to bring harm to another innocent stranger.However, what Henry didn't know was that fate always has its own plans.Lilian chased after Darwin, "Darwin, come with me to the art exhibition this weekend, please?""I'm busy, find someone else." Darwin said, his tone indifferent."Darwin, can't we even be friends now?" Lilian clutched at his sleeve.Darwin frowned at her."That day is the day I was forced into marriage, I don't want to spend it alone." Lilian said, her eyes reddening.Darwin always felt a deep-seated guilt about it.After a moment of silence, he said, "Just this once."Lilian immediately smiled through her tears, "I knew I could count on you! You're the best!"As long as

Fiona followed the florist's gesture and gazed at the bunches of flowers, pausing briefly.Besides the champagne roses, there were also sunflowers and purple daisies, the varieties she often ordered from this store.The florist seemed to truly appreciate the person who ordered these flowers.Before Fiona could collect her thoughts, she heard the florist saying, "There's this gentleman who comes in twice a week to buy flowers for his wife. In addition to the seasonal blooms, he always picks up sunflowers and purple daisies, probably his wife's favorites."Buying them for his wife, huh? Fiona mused."He must be very fond of his wife." Fiona responded, then pointed to a display behind the florist, "I'll take the sunflowers.""You have good taste. Our sunflowers here, if not the best in the whole Bay City, are certainly the best in the central district!"While chatting, the florist skillfully wrapped Fiona's flowers."Are these for someone special?" the florist asked."You could say that,
Obedient Surrogate No More Chapter 164 The Art Exhibition
Fiona couldn't help laughing and crying at the sight.She put down her flowers and woke up Ashton."Back already?" yawned Ashton."Let's each take one and get them to bed." Fiona suggested.Ashton nodded, still groggy, picked up Charles, who was closest to her, and carried him upstairs.Charles half-woke, blurred-eyed, saw his mom waving at him, and let his head drop back to sleep.Fiona, with a smile, scooped up Chicago, who was sleeping like a little piglet, and couldn't resist giving her cute cheek a kiss.Then she too climbed the stairs.Fiona gently kissed each of them goodnight, whispered softly that she loved them, and quietly left the room."How's it going? Is the project coming together?" Ashton yawned."More or less." nodded Fiona."I've nearly cleared up my company's affairs, and I can finally rest for a few days." said Ashton, visibly relaxing.Fiona congratulated her, then abruptly changed the subject, "By the way, I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned resting.
