"I looked up some local cuisine online. There's one that looks really delicious, but it's a bit far, and if we go late, we'll have to wait in line!"Over the past few years, the people Fiona had been around were either cunning and scheming or decadent. It had been many, many years since she had seen someone as innocent and carefree as Harold. For a brief moment, Fiona saw a glimpse of her past self before the dramatic changes. Warm and earnest."Okay, since I'm treating you to a meal, whatever you choose is up to you."Fiona patiently nodded, as if coaxing a child. Harold's excitement was palpable. Fiona grabbed her bag and left the house with Harold. Autumn in New Port, with yellow leaves filling the streets and alleyways, created a charming atmosphere. Fiona sat in the passenger seat, lazily listening to Harold's excited introduction of the sights along the way. He had seemed to make a lot of preparations. Fiona responded with indifference, not showing much enthusiasm. But in Harold
"Go inside!" Darwin pushed Fiona on the shoulder. Fiona stumbled and took two steps back. Before she could stop Darwin from entering, he had already stepped inside and slammed the door shut. The loud bang made Fiona's heart tremble."Mr. Solomon, if you have something to say, let's talk outside!" Fiona said in a deep voice. She couldn't help but recall Darwin's wicked actions on the cruise ship."Go outside?" Darwin advanced step by step toward Fiona. Fiona frowned and instinctively backed away."If I go out now, aren't you afraid of being seen by your new love?" Darwin's tone was chilling. "When did you meet that kid from the Klein family? When did you become so intimate? What did you do behind my back when you ran away together?""Darwin, can you stop talking nonsense?" Fiona furrowed her brow. "Harold and I have nothing. I came to New Port for a business trip!"At this moment, Fiona's back was against the wall, with no more room to retreat. Darwin's cold hand grabbed her neck the n
Darwin held Fiona in his arms. It felt surreal, as if they were in another world."Mr. Solomon," Her hesitance gave way to the exhaustion she felt, and she didn't resist."Hmm..." Darwin buried his head in her neck, making a nonverbal gesture of acknowledgment. It felt like something was slowly tearing Fiona's heart apart."I'm tired. I just want to live a peaceful and ordinary life... Please let me go." There was no hysteria, no angry outburst. Just a calm request. Darwin instinctively tightened his grasp around Fiona's waist."I'm not Miss Robbins," Fiona continued, "the things you like, they are all an act. But I'm tired... I don't want to be Lilian's substitute anymore. I want to be myself again.""Stop talking. Weren't you going to rest?" Darwin frees one hand and gently covered Fiona's mouth. "Sleep!"I can't understand what Darwin is thinking. He doesn't love her and has found a new replacement, so why does he still bother her? Blaming her past competence? Fiona laughed at hers
Darwin was different from the typical domineering CEOs in many novels. He didn't have a tragic background. His parents were alive and had a good relationship.He grew up spoiled, like a golden child.Fiona had been with him for five years. She had grown accustomed to his indifference and his superiority. She had also grown accustomed to his ruthless and cunning ways in the business world.Except for Lilian, there was nothing that could bind him.Strictly speaking.Fiona didn't even consider Lilian as a constraint on him.When he had a car accident, Lilian abandoned him and married into the privileged family. Darwin found a substitute to satisfy his addiction but didn't go after her.Fiona had seen Darwin in various states. But what she saw now was the worst she had ever seen. She turned away. Darwin's shirt was a little wrinkled from sleeping. As she looked at him, his good-looking face was filled with an unfamiliar sense of superiority."Are you possessed?"Fiona asked seriously.Dar
There was no one outside the door, Harold had already left.Darwin was very satisfied with this.Subconsciously, he glanced at Fiona.She walked with lowered eyelids, her expression cold and devoid of any extra emotions."I thought he was so determined," Darwin sneered.Fiona ignored him.The two of them walked to the elevator, one after the other.Darwin's phone rang.He glanced at it and his expression turned cold visibly.It was Anniston calling.He hung up directly.The elevator door opened, and two children playing inside rushed out.They bumped into Fiona directly."Be careful!" Darwin quickly pulled her into his arms to protect her."Sorry! The kids weren't paying attention!" the children's parents apologized immediately.Darwin's face darkened.The two little boys also quickly apologized.Fiona looked gentle: "Be more careful in the future. If you really hurt someone, Mom and Dad will be in big trouble!""We know..." The two children pouted in response.After apologizing repea
Long time ago when Wyatt was studying abroad, due to his charms and good looks, he caused quite a few heartbreaks. As a result, he also received death threats. He still remembered the first time he received a death threat, it was from Y-country's mafia, and he was restless for several days. Later, his family handled it."Have you received death threats before?" Wyatt asked.Fiona looked at him as if he were crazy and asked, "Why?""You are too calm, aren't you afraid?" Wyatt pressed on."What can fear solve?" Fiona packed her laptop back into her bag. "Mr. Durham worked hard to arrange the car. Let's meet downstairs at seven o'clock tomorrow morning."After Fiona left. Wyatt was still pondering over it. Darwin's call came in."Mr. Solomon, where are you? Waiting for you to take care of the payment~" Wyatt said in a tone that hinted at annoyance."I have arranged for some people to go over," Darwin's tone was cold, "They will take care of the local boss.""Hmph." Wyatt leaned back in h
The Special Care Ward had a spacious room layout. There was even a sofa by the window. Darwin nestled in the sofa. He dealt with some unfinished tasks during the day that he hadn't had time to handle earlier. Outside the window, the autumn rain was drizzling. Anniston left not long after. Jones also wisely left the room In the hospital room, only Darwin and Hathaway remained."Darwin, if you're feeling bored, you can go back. I'm fine," Hathaway considerately said."It's fine, you rest," Darwin replied without looking up.The matters were all taken care of.He absentmindedly opened Fiona's WhatsAPP.In the past, if she wasn't by his side, she would always ask every time they flew, during takeoff and landing.But not this time.There was a tinge of sourness in Darwin's heart.Then he clicked on Fiona's Status.The background of her Status was a cute furry kitten.Darwin had never seen it before.When did she start raising a cat?He scrolled down.The most recent post was three hours ag
Just as she exited Status, Darwin's message popped up again: "?"Fiona didn't intend to respond.But Darwin called directly.The spoiled young master was upset about being blocked on Status. That explained his anxiety.Fiona didn't want to answer. But considering that she was going to run away anyway. Might as well calm him down. She answered the call."Mr. Solomon, do you want to check the time?" she said."What's going on with your Status? Why is it visible for only three days?" Darwin asked."I just set it that way," Fiona lay down, weariness washing over her once again. " Mr. Solomon, if there's nothing else, please hang up. I'm really tired,""You're tired, yet you have the energy to specifically set your Status?" Darwin questioned."Um," Fiona responded.A soft "um" brushed across Darwin's heart like a small, furry cat's tail.It tickled.He licked his lips."How is Miss Ross?" Fiona asked at that moment."Nothing's wrong," Darwin replied."That's good, otherwise I would feel gu
