Leo was stunned, but thinking of James's attitude, he straightened his chest and continued, "No! Why? Are you annoyed?" "... " "Mr. Leo." Samuel once again stood up and tried to negotiate, "Look, you've been talking for a while. You must be thirsty. Why don't we find a place to have a drink first?" Samuel indicated Leo to leave James and Elizabeth alone. When Elizabeth heard this, for the first time, she felt that Samuel was very smart. It wasn't her intention to have Leo stand up for her. But Leo did it for her own sake, so she didn't interrupt him. She had to listen to him only because he had saved her life that day. Many people had left since the gate was opened and only a few were around them. But it took time for everyone to leave. Some even intended to stay and watch them because James came with such scales and he was outstanding himself. It was pleasant for Elizabeth to be watched by strangers. If Leo left with Samuel, things would be mu
"James, are you crazy?" Leo shouted, forgetting that he was a celebrity. "F*ck! F*ck! Don't you know how to be gentle? I need to play piano with my hands. Auch!" Leo cried out in pain. Though his expression was covered by the mask, his tightly wrinkled forehead could still clearly explain how uncomfortable he was. The soldier probably thought that Leo was too noisy. "Shut up! Let's Go!" "James Lu! What are you doing?!" Leo widened his eyes in shock. He looked at the floor that was turning upside down, and then shouted, "Put me down!" The soldier didn't listen to him, but walked even faster. Elizabeth also widened her eyes as she looked at the struggling Leo in front of her. She said in a hurry, "James, where are you taking him to?" Such a savage style was really annoying! "He's too noisy." "Let him go now!" James looked at the agitated woman in front of him and felt sad. He said, "No." Samuel touched his nose and then turned to indi
"What if I don't?" Elizabeth said it slowly, making James feel as if his heart was pulled by a thread. He felt even more panicky. "Then what do I need to do to convince you?" He was so anxious that he could not help speaking faster. "You were there then. I didn't intend to do so. But you left with Leo and didn't give me a chance to explain. Wasn't Zena unconscious? Although I said harsh words before, what else can I do at that time?" "I can understand that you blame me, but honey..." James suddenly didn't know what to say. What had happened couldn't be changed, no matter what he said. "Are you blaming me for not solving the problem?" James closed his eyes. "I'm sorry, I didn't know what happened between you. But now, the most important thing is for you to go back with me, isn't it? If you go back with me, I will follow whatever you say. How you do think?" Actually, James had made up his mind in how to deal with Zena when he sent Zena to the room and saw th
Watching out of the window for a while, James turned to look at Elizabeth sitting next to him. He cleared his throat and tried to hold her hand. However, as soon as James touched her, Elizabeth shook his hand off in anger without looking at him. "Sweetheart..." "Don't call me." James raised his eyebrows but could do nothing about it. Samuel was driving in the front. And he raised the soundproof board in between with sense. James looked at the board and praised Samuel for his sense in the heart. But it didn't make James feel more relaxed. He turned to Elizabeth again and tried to talk to her, "Dear, don't be angry, will you?" They were all good before James stopped Elizabeth from saying goodbye to Leo. And then she was angry again. Well... James was angry at Leo for not explaining, but deliberately provoked him before. And he brought Elizabeth to the airport while he was clear that she was pregnant. "Don't be angry." James touc
In the study, John was sitting on a small sofa and waiting for the water in the teapot on the tea tray to boil. He looked at James, who was sitting on the side. After a slight sigh, he said, "Elizabeth is back safe and sound. We all rest assured." James stared at the teapot in front of him and nodded slightly. However, he was far from being as calm as he looked. He was a little impulsive, but he didn't regret it. However, his father didn't scold or punish him. Instead, John only sat peacefully and chatted with him. It made James surprised. "Next, What's your plan?" "Pardon?" John was a little unhappy, but he did not lose his temper. "What are you going to do next?" James was silent for a while. "I'm the one who turned to Richard. He helped me with it. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to do it so fast. I owe him a favor, and I am clear about what to do. He said that they are going to make a match recently, about performance. They applied for it, bu
Seeing James go downstairs, Lydia stopped watching TV and quickly ran to James's side. "Kid, what did your father say to you?" James was in a good mood. He grinned, "What else could happen? His son almost made a big mistake today. He was punishing me with family laws. Do you believe it?" Lydia obviously didn't believe it. She patted him on the shoulder and pretended to be angry, "I will be happy if he really has punished you." "Lydia, am I really your biological son?" "Of course not." Lydia spread her hands. "Back then, we were lucky and picked up a child from the trash can outside the house. Go out and have a look. The trash can is still there." "I see." James nodded happily. "I'm asking you. What did your father say to you?" "Do you want to know?" James raised his eyebrows. "Of course! Tell me now!" James stopped smiling and said, "Then just go upstairs and ask Mr. Lu yourself." "Oh!" Lydia was speechless. "You naughty kid.
Richard let out a mournful cry. "Jimmy, you are so annoying." James did not speak either, but his eyes became even more sharp and deep. Richard looked at James and sighed gloomily. "Well, it's my old man, okay?" "What's the matter?" "Ah! What else can it be?" Richard shrugged helplessly. "I know that he wouldn't agree even if I asked him. He would only think that I was kidding. So, I did everything in his name. Well, it's easy to imagine how angry he was. Fortunately, he didn't have a heart attack, and he wasn't so angry to have a heart attack. But he ordered me to discharge by the end of the year and to take over his business." Hearing this, James felt complicated, and his face darkened. After a long while, he sighed and apologized, "I'm sorry to have caused you so much trouble." "What are you talking about?" Richard gave him an angry glance. "We are brothers. It's good that I have helped you." Although Richard said so, James didn't feel less
Elizabeth felt a little thirsty, so she opened her eyes. Although the light in the room was not very dazzling, she couldn't get used to it for the moment. She raised her hand to block the light, trying to get used to it slowly. "Elizabeth, are you awake?" Lydia stood up from the chair and asked with a smile, "Did you sleep well?" Elizabeth was stunned, "Mom." She wanted to sit up, but she looked around out of habit. "Are you looking for Jimmy?" Elizabeth was too embarrassed to say yes, so she shook her head and replied, "No." Lydia had dated with John when she was young. How could she not know what Elizabeth was thinking? "Jimmy has something to do, so he went out. He'll probably come back later. If you need something or want to say something, you can tell me." Hearing this, Elizabeth pursed her lips, "Mm." "Are you hungry? If you're hungry, I'll bring you midnight snacks." Lydia asked with a smile. "No, I'm just a little thir
Time went by so quickly. In the blink of an eye, John was already sixty years old. He didn't like complicated things and didn't like to celebrate his birthday. However, Lydia insisted on holding a birthday party for him. Considering that he liked quiet atmosphere, Lydia didn't celebrate his birthday in style. She only invited some close friends. Benjamin and Isaac naturally went there. Arvis was already five years old. He was much more lively than a few years ago, but he was not particularly noisy. Adele was pregnant again. The child was less than five months old, but Isaac was very nervous and followed her everywhere. He was so careful that James and Benjamin couldn't stand him anymore. That day, James teased him, "Say, Isaac, why are you so cautious? Adele is not a porcelain doll. If you want to please her, you don't have to be so affected." Isaac handed a piece of apple to Adele. After she finished eating, he replied, "I love my wife.
John didn't expect that she would mention this matter on her own. He fell in love with her first and said that he wanted to get engaged to her, but she proposed to get married first. Was it even? However, he wasn't a strait-laced person. Besides, wasn't it a good thing that his beloved girl couldn't wait to marry him? If they got married, he could see her as soon as he got home from work, and she would accompany him for meals. If he worked at home, she would stay with him. When he woke up in the morning, he would see her sleeping face at once and say good morning to her. At night, they could sleep together. What a wonderful thing! They got married in early August. The wedding was very grand, and there were many guests. Almost everyone who had something to do with the Lu family and the Song family attended their wedding, and some even came from afar. The three floors in the most luxurious hotel in A City was filled to capacity. John would always
"Happy birthday to you!" She sang the birthday song softly. Her voice was dulcet and soft, and it was very pleasant to the ear. The candlelight on the cake flickered as she moved, and the fruit on the cake gleamed in the candlelight. As Lydia approached John step by step, he felt that he was going crazy. She preferred to wear dresses, but all her dresses were lovely. Sometimes, she wore like a read lady. But at this time... She wore a long black lace dress that only reached her bottom. It was so flimsy that he could see her underwear... Her bra and pants were red and sexy, which only covered the most important parts of her body... At this time, John was obsessed with her, and he was hot all over. He felt that all the blood in his body was boiling, and his head seemed to be a little dizzy. "John..." Lydia came to him and looked at him shyly. "Today is your birthday." He looked at her bright and affectionate eyes and couldn't help but
John's birthday was coming soon, and Lydia was very distressed, because she hadn't decided what to buy for him. It was in the dark ages of computing. There was a computer in her house, but the network was not very developed. Therefore, she only asked a few close friends about it. They told her that she could buy him tie, cuffs, and clothes, but she denied these ideas at once. John was born in a rich family. After he grew up, he became a very excellent businessman. He had received many expensive birthday gifts, let alone something like a tie. As his fiancee, she couldn't be perfunctory, could she? So, she went to the mall, but she didn't see anything she liked. It seemed that giving him a special and novel birthday gift was not easy. She didn't know how to make handwork or paint. She had learnt piano when she was young, but she gave up later. After thinking about it for a while, she suddenly felt that she was so stupid. Except for the fact that she co
With the permission of Lydia's parents, John travel with her abroad for a few days. After coming back, he hired someone to teach her at home. Lydia had a feeling of freshness at the beginning. After all, she used to attend classes at school. At this time, she could learn knowledge at home. Moreover, the teachers were very careful and very patient. However, the next day, she was not willing to study like this, so she went to find John. "Why?" John was puzzled, "Is it because they can't teach their lessons well enough? If that's the case, I'll change new teachers for you tomorrow." "No!" She kept waving her hand, "They are very good teachers and they're patient, but..." She looked at him cautiously and thought twice before speaking, "They are just too patient, and they take good care of me as if I'm a child. I feel... a little stressful." John was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled, "Is this the reason?" "Yeah." Lydia nodded, "But I am not a chil
Lydia really didn't go to school anymore. Although all the misunderstandings had been clarified, she didn't want to go to school again. On the second day after she went through formalities, Nina came to her and asked for her forgiveness. At that time, John was there, but later he found an excuse and went out. Lydia looked at Nina who had suddenly become much more haggard and sighed in heart. Why did Nina have to provoke her back then? "I'm sorry." Nina said softly. "Oh." Hearing this, Nina immediately got unhappy and glared at her with hatred, "Lydia, are you very smug now?" She was apologizing to Lydia, but Lydia actually replied to her so indifferently. Lydia shrugged her shoulders, "Do you think I'm smug now?" "I'm apologizing to you!" "I heard it. Didn't I answer you as well?" "You..." Nina sneered, "Is that your answer?" "What do you expect?" Lydia was puzzled, "How do you want me to answer you? Should I thank you w
Nina's voice came from the stereo around the playground. She had said a lot. There were so many people on the sports ground, but none of them spoke. They were all shocked and stunned. "As for what I said to Lydia, it was my prank. Actually, Lydia's fiance has nothing to do with me. I... just envied her for having such an excellent fiance and I was jealous. Therefore, I did that to her that day..." After she said this, the crowd, which had been quiet, suddenly burst into an uproar. "Oh my god! How could it be?" "I heard that she was very excited that day. She cried, knelt in front of Lydia and begged her. But she said it was a prank?" "She couldn't do that even if she wanted to prank on Lydia, could she? That is Lydia's fiance." "I don't think it's a prank. I was in the dormitory at that time and I saw it with my own eyes. Nina looked really sad. In my opinion, Lydia must have put pressure on Nina, so Nina has to do this." "Lydia's family
As soon as Lydia entered the school, she walked with her head down, because she was afraid of meeting acquaintances. Besides, with John holding her hand, she did not have to worry that she would fall down. After what had happened yesterday, she... had become quite well-known in school. "Lydia, look up." His voice was very soft, but she was somewhat pressurized. She gave him a resentful look, "Do you even want to force me to raise my head?" He chuckled, "Didn't you listen to my words carefully just now?" "Yeah." Lydia snorted, "But I came in here, didn't I?" She said, "You said those words indeed, and I think it makes sense, but... John, it's hard for me to do it, okay? I know I'm not wrong, but I'm very worried. You are not me, so you won't understand my mood." John sighed lightly and didn't know what to say at the moment. Although he didn't talk much in ordinary times, he did things in a decisive manner. Perhaps, he really had no way to
"John, you're here?" Nina ran into the house with great joy. Just now, she went out, but when she knew that he had come here, she rushed back, for fear that she would miss him. Fortunately, he had not left yet. Looking at John who was sitting in the living room, she was very happy, and her heart jumped very fast. John was very excellent, and she was infatuated with him. Although she had done such a thing, she didn't regret it at all. As long as she could be with him, she couldn't care about so much. That day... why on earth did he come here? Was it because Lydia couldn't stand it anymore and broke up with him? Had he found out how good she was? John raised his head and took a look at her. His eyes were very bland. When she was about to walk over, John stood up. He arranged his suit and said to her father, "I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer as I said. I hope to hear it tomorrow." Her father's face darkened, but he didn't dare to lose
