Finally, it was dawn. James moved his aching neck. As soon as he stood up, Elizabeth woke up. Elizabeth was a little bleary-eyed and sleepy, looking somewhat confused and adorable. "Wake up? Are you hungry?" Hearing this, Elizabeth stretched her body while shaking her head. When she looked at James, she suddenly paused, "Didn't you sleep last night?" "I slept." "You didn't!" Elizabeth didn't believe him, "There is a mirror in the bathroom. You can talk to me after you go and look at yourself in it." James raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong? Do I look haggard?" Elizabeth kept nodding, "Yeah, you don't look well. You have pouches under your eyes, and you need a shave." Hearing this, James frowned and muttered, "D*mn! My handsome face!" "What did you say?" "Nothing." Elizabeth's eyes widened again. She stared at James and asked, "You really didn't sleep?" "I slept, but I didn't sleep well." James looked at Eliz
"Yeah, go ahead." Elizabeth touched her nose, "Well, will you... uh..." Her voice was not very loud, and she didn't speak clearly. Besides, there was the sound of shaving. James paused and asked, "Hmm? What?" "I'm just asking you..." Elizabeth coughed and raised her voice a little, "Will you do that?" "What do you mean?" Elizabeth closed her eyes. Since she had said this, she might as well ask it directly, "I mean... will you feel uncomfortable?" "For what?" Hearing this, Elizabeth let out a sigh of depression, "Will you feel uncomfortable because of the bed time right now?" James turned off the shaver and turned to look at Elizabeth who was standing next to him with a red face. At first, he frowned, but after a few seconds, he realized what she meant, "Why do you suddenly ask this?" "I... am just..." Elizabeth lowered her head and hemmed and hawed, not knowing what to say. "Uh-huh? If I really have a hard time suppressing my
"Mr. Lu." James sat on the swivel chair. When Samuel pushed the door open and came in, he glanced at him blandly and then nodded slightly. Samuel closed the door. He felt a bit nervous and uneasy while walking from the door to James's desk. "Haven't you found them yet?" Hearing this, Samuel shook his head, "Not yet." James hadn't come to the company for a few days. He knew that he came for this matter. "What the hell?" James frowned and said very unpleasantly, "When I asked you to investigate it last time, you said there were not many clues, so it was hard to find them. What about now? Huh?" Samuel said with a crying face, "Mr. Lu, I've really tried my best to find them. I have a lot of things to deal with these days, but I don't dare to neglect what you ordered me to do." "So, even if you don't neglect it, you still haven't found them?" Samuel coughed lightly and said in a dilemma, "Well... Mr. Lu, I spent a lot of effort to look for the
"Jimmy." Richard walked into the room with his back straight and then sat on the sofa casually with his legs crossed. Looking at the box with good decoration and a comfortable environment, he smiled, "We are acquaintances. Why do you have to treat me so grandly?" James poured him a cup of tea and gave it to him, "Drink it." "Okay." Richard didn't stand on ceremony, picked up the cup and drank it up, "I rushed here after receiving your call, and I'm really a little thirsty." After that, he sighed, "Nice tea!" "If you like it, you can go to the reception desk to get it when you leave. I'll pay for it." "I knew that you're very generous." Richard laughed and then his expression returned to serious, "By the way, how is Elizabeth? I have many things to do these days, so I don't have time to see her." "Well, she's much better." As James said this, he looked up at Richard, "Thank you so much for helping me save her. I promised that I would buy you a drink.
After Lydia and Auntie Chang left, Elizabeth went to the bathroom. She was not in a hurry to lie on the bed. Instead, she went to the balcony and stood there to watch the scenery outside. It was fall, and many leaves began to turn yellow. From the angle she was standing, she could only see a small part of trees, but she was glad when she saw those green and yellow leaves. She lay on the bed every day. Except for watching TV and playing her mobile phone sometimes, all she could see were white walls, which made her depressed and bored. "Young Madam, you'd better go back and lie on the bed. You can't stand for a long time now." Jane came out and said with concern. Elizabeth pursed her lips, "I'll just stand here for a little longer. Jane, I lie on the bed every day, and I almost don't know how to walk." Looking at Elizabeth's aggrieved and slightly coquettish face, Jane laughed, "We should listen to the doctor's words, shouldn't we? You have just got a little
"Young Madam..." Jane could not bear to refuse Elizabeth, but she did not dare to disobey James's order. If James knew she went out to buy junk food for Elizabeth, maybe he would fire her in anger. To be honest, although James's house in South Lake was big, she did not have to do a lot of work every day. There was a robot vacuum. She only needed to mop the floor once a week, wiped the dust on the cabinet every day, cook meals and work in the small garden. Moreover, she got a high salary every month. She had been working as a nanny for many years, and only James gave her such a high salary. Moreover, James and Elizabeth were reasonable and treated her well. If she offended James because of this matter... "Don't eat it, okay?" When Elizabeth heard this, the smile on her face faded a lot. She looked at Jane pitifully and said with grievances, "But Jane, I really want to eat it. I eat these foods every day, and I'm really tired of them. The flavors are too mil
"..." There was no response from the door. "Jane..." Elizabeth felt it strange and raised her head. When she saw Zena standing at the door, the smile on her face faded, and she frowned immediately. Elizabeth sat up a little straight, "It's you?" Although she asked Zena in this way, she didn't sound very surprised. There was no emotion in her simple words, and her tone was somewhat unpleasant. Zena raised her eyebrows and looked at Elizabeth indifferently. She just looked at Elizabeth without saying anything. Her makeup was exquisite and perfect, but her expression was apathetic. After a long while, she said lightly, "Yeah, it's me." Saying this, she closed the door and walked toward Elizabeth elegantly and slowly in her high-heeled shoes. The sounds of the high heels hitting the ground were not very crisp, but Elizabeth's heart trembled when she heard that. Zena stood by the bed and looked down at Elizabeth with a calm face, saying, "What
"What? You don't understand? Aren't you ashamed to ask me?" Elizabeth closed her eyes and suddenly didn't want to say anything. Even if she said something, she felt that she was casting pearls before swine. Anyway, according to Zena's appearance, she was unreasonable and indistinguishable from the right and wrong. What could she say? "Elizabeth, you're pregnant. You stay here well and live a comfortable life, and you don't need to care about what happened to others. How enviable you life is!" As she spoke, she clutched the calling device tightly in her hand, wishing that she could grab Elizabeth's neck like this. "Your life is good, but what about me?" "..." Seeing that Elizabeth did not answer, Zena got more annoyed and growled, "Speak!" Elizabeth pursed her lips and looked at Zena helplessly, "What do you want me to say? I don't think I have anything to talk with you. Whether I'm living a good life is none of your business. As for your life,
