This night, after James came back, it was obvious that he was in a good mood. In front of Lydia and John, Elizabeth couldn't ask him more. But as soon as they returned to their room, she couldn't help but ask, "Hey, what happened today? Why were you sniggering all the time?" James raised his eyebrows, "Is that so?" "Yeah." Elizabeth nodded. "Oh, maybe I'm really in a good mood." "What happened?" Elizabeth's interest was aroused, "Is it because we are going to hold a wedding?" "No." James shook his head, "I just think I'm quite lucky." Elizabeth laughed, "It turns out you know that? If you are unlucky, there will be no lucky people in the world, okay? Look at you. You were born in a rich family, and you are very good-looking and smart. Everything you have is perfect, and everyone around you is very kind to you. Mom and dad are deep in love, and you have a complete and harmonious family. After you graduated, you've been working in the company and
"That's almost all I can remember." Elizabeth smiled. She didn't feel sad, but smiled gently, "I was very young at that time. Mom and dad were always not at home, and many years have passed, so I can't remember much about them." After hearing Elizabeth's soft words, James was no longer randy, and he didn't feel hot anymore. He reached out and held Elizabeth's hand, "Those are all happy memories, and it's so good." "That's right." "Do you miss them?" Elizabeth thought for a moment, "At first, I missed them so much. Every time I thought about them, I cried. After so many years, I have grown up, but I still miss them sometimes. In the past, when I lived alone and especially when I suffered from grievances or had difficulties in my life, I missed them very much." "At that time, I thought that if my mother was alive, she would definitely comfort me very gently, and my dad would tell me patiently that he would always support me." "So, I was saddest
James lay on the bed. In his arms, Elizabeth had fallen asleep. Listening to her shallow breathing, he looked at the dark phone screen, and then looked at her sleeping face again. They had talked so much, and it was late at night at this time. At this moment, he didn't want to go anywhere and just wanted to stay with her, but in the end, he raised his eyebrows helplessly. He got out of bed slowly and gently. He was afraid that he had to go out for a long time and Elizabeth couldn't find him after she woke up, and he didn't want to send her a message, because that would disturb her, therefore, he wrote a note and put it on the bedside table before he changed his clothes and went out. ...... James stood at the door of the private box booked by Issac and looked at Issac, who was drinking alone in the room. After standing for a few seconds, he stepped into the box. "Why did you come here alone?" This bar was one of the best bars in A City,
After James clinked with Isaac, he sighed with emotions, "Isaac, to be honest. Last night, I didn't know what to say after Richard told me that. I thought that I was not thoughtful at all and caused him trouble." "But, he didn't blame me. He even said it wasn't because of me. But at that time, I didn't know that his words were true. I thought that he just wanted to comfort me and didn't want to make things difficult for me." "Ha-ha!" James breathed a big sigh of relief and smiled more brightly, "Now, I really feel at ease. Everything seems to be so lovely." "Look at you." Isaac couldn't help laughing, "You're exaggerating. People who don't know might think you've won the lottery." James raised his eyebrows, "It sounds like a good idea. Isaac, how about me buying a lottery later?" As soon as he said this, he waved his hand, "No. It's too late now, and the store might have been closed. I'll get up early tomorrow morning and buy a lottery." "Come on!" Isaac w
"How can I live a carefree life? That's impossible." "Bullsh*t!" "Jimmy, don't forget that my mother... is under his control." James suddenly didn't know what to say. He clenched his hand, which was holding the can unconsciously. Isaac smiled self-mockingly, "Yeah, I've been leading a tiring life. Ever since I could remember, I've always wanted to escape from this kind of life. It wasn't until I fell in love with Adele that I started to feel that it wasn't so hard to live in that house. Later, I studied medicine, and I finally did something I liked under my strong request." "But, I have nothing now." "No, I have my mother. At least, now I have to live well for her." "Maxwell wants me to get engaged, so I'll get engaged. Even if he wants me to get married, I will... get married. Adele has died, so I don't care about anyone except my mother. As long as my mother is fine and she can call me once a month to let me know that she is safe and sound, I
Jodie stood at the corridor and looked at the tightly closed door. She frowned and waited for a long while before knocking on the door. There was no response from the room. Jodie did not hesitate. She used the spare key to open the door and went in. Albert was leaning against the chair behind the desk. He felt that someone had come in and raised his head, "Why did you come in?" "Aren't I worried about you?" Saying this, Jodie She walked to the desk and looked at Albert's dejected expression. She was distressed, and her voice was a little hoarse as she said, "You didn't eat anything after you came back yesterday. You didn't sleep last night, did you?" Albert closed his eyes, "I couldn't fall asleep." Hearing this, Jodie's heart ached severely, "Even if you couldn't fall asleep, you had to rest for a while. You're no longer a young man. What if you fall ill?" Although she said this, she herself didn't sleep last night, either. She did not want to think
Jodie stood outside Zena's room. She raised her hand to wipe the tears on her face before knocking on the door. She knocked on the door for quite a while, but Zena didn't open it. Suppressing the bitterness and pain in her heart, she said as she knocked on the door, "Zena... open the door. I... have something to talk to you." "..." "Zena, open the door, please. Both of you and your father don't come out... Do you want me to die of anxiety?" "..." "Zena... What's the point of hiding in the room? I know you're feeling bad, and your father and I are also very grieved. It has been so long, but you refuse to eat anything. I'm really so sad..." A few seconds later, Zena finally said, "Mom... I'm not hungry." "Although you're not hungry, don't lock yourself in the room. Seeing you and your father like this, I'm so helpless. It doesn't matter if you don't eat. Just open the door, okay?" After a short while, Jodie heard light footsteps, followed b
James had been in a good mood all day. Isaac asked him to go out last night, and he learnt a piece of good news. At least, he was no longer very guilty to Richard. He bore no burden and was fully relieved in heart. Therefore, he didn't feel annoyed when Lydia kept on blathering about the wedding dresses, and he could even give her some suggestions. "As for this one." James raised his eyebrows and thought for a moment, "I think the light color will be better. Don't you think purple is too eye-catching? It doesn't match my temperament at all, okay?" Lydia rolled her eyes at him, "Hey, do you think I choose this for you? Do you think you will be in the spotlight on the wedding? Shouldn't I think for Elizabeth first? She is delicate and quiet, so I think the light purple suits her so well." Hearing this, James was angry, and he was amused, "Won't I be in the spotlight? Do you think she can appear on the wedding without me?" "What do you want?"
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
