In Lu Mansion. Elizabeth sat in the car and looked in the direction of Lu Mansion. Then she turned to look at James next to her, "Didn't you ask me to cook for you? Why did you come here?" James unbuckled the seat belt and shrugged his shoulders, "Mom said that today is the first day of your new semester, so she asked me to pick you up for dinner." After that, he complained in his heart, "Hum! I lost my ten dishes and one soup!" "Oh." When Elizabeth heard this, she smiled, "Mom is so good to me!" As she said this, she unbuckled the seat belt, "Let's go in." Looking at Elizabeth who opened the car door, got off the car quickly, and walked toward the house, James sighed helplessly. Mom was good to her. Was he not good for her? Thinking of this, he suddenly thought of what he had just planned and smiled proudly, "Humph! You'll say that I'm good to you!" "Hi, Elizabeth." Lydia was sitting by the table and wanted to eat two pieces of meat on the sly. Wh
"We were just talking about you. Xavier, why do you come so late?" Lydia said happily, "If you came earlier, we could have dinner together. How nice it would be." Xavier and Zena sat together. Hearing this, Xavier smiled and said, "We were delayed by something, so we ate outside." After that, he looked at Elizabeth and smiled. Then he looked at James and took the lead in greeting, "Hi, Jimmy." James smiled gently, "Hi, Xavier." Elizabeth said hello to Zena. When she was about to greet Xavier, she thought for a while and still called him "Xavier". John, Lydia, and Zena were all here, so it was not proper to call him "Sebastian". "Will you sleep here tonight, Xavier?" Seeing that James and Elizabeth were determined to leave, Lydia ask Xavier to stay. "No, aunt, I'll leave later." Lydia felt depressed immediately, "You came here so late. I thought..." Xavier smiled and looked at John and Lydia. He said, "Uncle, aunt, we came here today because I
Xavier leaned against the trunk of a tree in the garden and stared at the screen which had been black. His eyes were brooding, and he was lost in thought. James stood at the entrance of the garden and stared at Xavier for a long time before he walked toward him. "Why don't you go in?" "Why are you here?" They spoke at the same time. Both of them smiled upon hearing this. James walked over and stood side by side with Xavier as if there was really no misunderstanding or estrangement between them before. It seemed that they were back to nine years ago. Xavier was James's elder brother and they could play together and share everything. James took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, handed one cigarette to Xavier, and asked, "Do you want it?" Xavier glanced at the cigarette and then looked at James. After a long while, he smiled faintly, "Okay." He reached out and took it. James also smiled faintly, and he felt more relaxed in the
"I feel that you're quite happy today," Elizabeth said as soon as she walked out of the Lu Mansion. "Is that so?" James said and smiled more brightly. Elizabeth nodded, "Yes." "Xavier is about to get married. How can I not be happy?" In fact, what he really wanted to say was that he was no more emotionally crippled, and he was happy because he had made peace with Xavier. Elizabeth smiled after hearing it, "I am also very happy." After that, she sighed, "It's the best result that he can marry the girl he loves and has a family that really belongs to him." "What does a family that really belongs to him mean? What did my parents say just now? If my father doesn't regard him as a member of our family, how could he give him so many shares? He didn't lose his mind." "That's right." Elizabeth nodded with a smile, "Mom and dad are really nice to him." Hearing this, James snorted, "Aren't they good to you?" As he said this, he puckered his mouth with
However, James did not bring her to the open space he had pointed at just now. The car kept driving up and finally stopped at the top of the mountain. The top of the mountain was somewhat spacious and flat. The ground was covered with soft weeds. Elizabeth thought that the top of the mountain would be pitch-black. But at this moment, there were a few small lamps that looked like solar panels. Just like what she had seen at the mountainside, there was also a small bonfire here. Beside the bonfire, there was a two-person tent that had been set up. In the dark night, the light was gleaming and was not very bright. But... Elizabeth could see everything clearly. Because the stars were shining bright in the sky. James walked to her side, opened the car door, and said with a smile, "Come down, honey." Elizabeth sat in the seat in a daze. She was still confused about what she had seen. No, she was not confused, but pleasantly surprised.
What did she think? Lying on the air bed in the tent, Elizabeth was still thinking about the question he asked just now. Why did he ask her such a question? Why did he kiss her before she could answer him? Why did he bring her to the tent? This tent must be very expensive, and there was even a luminous light on the top of it..." No! What problems was she thinking about? What did it have to do with the luminous light? Sure enough, her head got dizzy because of his kiss... This was a very serious question! "Stay focused!" James slightly opened his eyes and looked at Elizabeth who was absent-minded, feeling a bit unhappy! He was doing something very serious! How could she think about something else? Couldn't she be a bit more focused? Elizabeth frowned and turned her head slightly, "I... want to see the meteors!" "The meteor is not as good-looking as I am!" He clenches his teeth and said with annoyance. "I can't see them anymore after a wh
Elizabeth soon returned home. She rushed upstairs without having breakfast and even locked the door. She sat in front of the dressing table. On the table, there was a glass of warm water she had just fetched. She stared at the small medicine box in her hand, which she had just bought secretly. The medicine box was still slightly warm and wet with her sweat. She gently rubbed the words on it with her slender and white fingers, feeling a little hesitant. On the second day after honeymooning and having sex with James, she secretly bought contraceptive pills as well. For the sake of her health, she even bought a bottle of long-acting contraceptive pills. At that time, she took the pills without hesitation. It was not because she didn't like children. She just felt that it wasn't the right time for her to get pregnant. She needed to go to university, have an internship, or even a formal job. In any case, it wasn't very suitable for her to have a child. Afte
"Miss Wu, do you have something to say to me?" Sitting on the sofa, James looked at Evelyn who was somewhat embarrassed, and asked blandly. "Well..." Evelyn scratched her hair, and then took out a card from her bag and put it gently on the tea table. She pushed it towards James and said, "This is the card you gave me a few days ago. I came here today to give it back to you." James glanced at the card and then looked at Evelyn blandly. Evelyn pursed her lips and said, "You gave me this card because Elizabeth was in a bad mood. Since Elizabeth has become cheerful again, I can't take it anymore." After knowing that Elizabeth was really in a good mood yesterday, she decided to do this. Hearing this, James nodded lightly and did not refuse her. That was his card. He was not stingy. If Evelyn had any needs, he could promise to help her as long as he could, because she had helped him. But he had his own principles. His card could only be used by his wife. Altho
