In the following days, everything was peaceful and wonderful. Although John did not talk much, he chatted with Elizabeth occasionally and cared about her diet. Lydia prepared different nutritionally balanced menus for her every day. Apart from chatting with Elizabeth, she took a walk with Elizabeth in the neighborhood and talked about the gossips of stars. As for James, he was very good to her. Ignoring the fact that he didn't know how to cook, he was a perfect husband. Everyone treated Elizabeth very well, and she often felt that she was living like a pig. Except for going out for a walk with Lydia sometimes, she slept and ate all day long. She has just come home for ten days, but she had gained six pounds. That day, when Elizabeth finished washing up and looked into the mirror, she could vaguely see her jowl. At first, she was stunned. Then, she looked at herself in the mirror carefully. When she found that she was really jowly, she sighed helplessly. She retu
James suddenly approached Elizabeth, and she did not dodge. Instead, she blinked her eyes and nodded with a smile, "Yeah." "..." "I thought you were outside, and you didn't pack up your things, so I..." Elizabeth thought for a moment, but she didn't say that she saw it on purpose, "I just wanted to sort out these things for you, and then I saw them." James was silent for a while, "Is that so?" He had been with her for so long. How could he not know what she was thinking? Humph! Did she think that he could not see that she was lying? "Of course." Elizabeth nodded repeatedly. In order to make herself look more sincere, she stopped smiling and put on a serious face. "Oh." "Look at you..." Elizabeth narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Are you angry? Just because I peeked at your drafts?" However, before James could say anything, she said in a hurry, "I didn't mean it. Besides, you prepared these things for me, didn't you? In fact, I'm glad that I
"No!" Elizabeth immediately said, "Am I that kind of person? I didn't expect that you would think of me in this way!" "I was just asking casually." "Your furtive behaviours were strange, but I didn't think too much, okay?" "Furtive behaviours?" Elizabeth stuck out her tongue, "Well, I should say that you seem to be very busy these days. Except for eating and accompanying me, you stay in the study all day." After hearing this, James immediately said, "I never ignore you." "I didn't say that." Elizabeth muttered, "I just don't want you to be too tired." "I'm not tired, really." After that, he looked at her, "Why did you suddenly want to find me? You should be sleeping at this time, shouldn't you?" "I woke up early today, and then..." Elizabeth said with a dejected face, "When I looked in the mirror, I found that I am jowly. To be honest, I am a little sad." "What's there to be sad about? It's called happy fat." Elizabeth was spe
Since it was a secret action, they enjoyed it very much. Lydia saw Elizabeth in good condition and thought she would be bored at home only. Thus, Lydia invited Elizabeth to take a walk further instead of around the villa only. The community they lived in was with great facility and located in the downtown area. There was a small park in it with beautiful views. "Mom, your phone is ringing." Lydia said casually, "It must be my husband being unhappy because we didn't invite him to come together." "... " "Oh, I'll tell you. Men sometimes can be over clingy. My husband is a great example. I'm surprised at how clingy he can be sometimes at this age." Listening to Lydia's complaint, Elizabeth chuckled, "Isn't it good? It shows that you are deeply bounded." Lydia thought for a moment and then nodded. "Well... As you mentioned it, it seems so." There were a few acquainted madams who played cards with her. Every time they praised her to be
Elizabeth felt a little helpless, but she couldn't say anything. However, even if she didn't say it, it didn't mean that she didn't understand John, did it? James did everything for her own good, and John did everything for Lydia, didn't he? He accompanied her, followed her, and even cared about her just because he loved her. He was afraid that she would feel lonely or be wronged in another city. Besides, no matter how delicious the food outside was, it was actually not as good as the food cooked at home. "Mom." After a long while, Elizabeth said, "In fact... dad did it for your own good." "Uh..." Lydia was rendered speechless and felt a little embarrassed. She thought that she had really lost her face and her image seemed to have been ruined in an instant. That was really an unwise move. Why did she say something like that without thinking? Didn't she give herself a slap in the face? However, she thought that she was a generous person, so she
"I..." "What's the matter?" As Elizabeth said this, she couldn't help but look around with worry. She thought that John or James had come here, but she didn't see them after looking around. "I am just..." Lydia put her hands on her belly and felt awkward, "My stomach aches a little." "Ah?" Elizabeth was stunned for a moment, "Is it because the food is unclean?" At this time, Elizabeth was worried about Lydia's health, and also worried about herself. If she had a stomachache because of this food and even had diarrhea... Speaking of diarrhea, she thought of the fact that not long ago, she and Evelyn had diarrhea and then had an intravenous drip because they ate the leftovers she brought to school... She couldn't take medicine at will because she was pregnant. "No." Lydia's well-maintained face looked so painful, "It's just because I ate too much all of a sudden and my stomach can't bear it." She not only felt uncomfortable in her stomach, b
Elizabeth paused and looked back. It was only then that she saw the cleaner's face clearly. It seemed that she was in her fifties. Her face was haggard, and her figure was thin, but she grabbed her with great strength. "Who are you?" Elizabeth asked after looking at her for a long time. The middle-aged woman stared at Elizabeth carefully. Then she shook her head gently with disappointment in her eyes. "Who are you?" Elizabeth had never seen this woman before. Although she often came here, she almost came in and left by car every time, and she always stayed at home, so she was very sure that she did not know this woman. "It seems that you're really not so charming. Are you beautiful? I just think that you're not ugly." The woman in a gloomy voice. Elizabeth was somewhat displeased, "Madam, I don't seem to know you." Therefore, she was not qualified to say so. "It doesn't matter if you don't know me. As long as I know you." Hearing this, El
Looking at Jodie's eager and anxious eyes, Elizabeth shook her head, "I'm sorry. I may not be able to help you." She didn't care if Jodie would think she was vicious or cruel. She really hated Zena. Although Zena had been punished, she wouldn't sympathize with her at all. "You..." Jodie was stunned. She did not expect Elizabeth to refuse her so directly. "You haven't heard the favor yet." She was a little anxious, "Would you like to listen to me first?" She was so worried, for fear that Elizabeth wouldn't agree with her. Tears that she had been holding back suddenly rolled down her face. Elizabeth frowned slightly and didn't say anything. She knew that Jodie came to her mostly because of Zena. She did not like Zena, but she could not bear to see such an old lady shedding tears in front of her. "Just tell me about it." Jodie was delighted when she heard this. She raised her hand to wipe the tears on her face, "That's great. Thank you for listeni
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
