“Don’t even think about it!” Jasper lifted Summer’s chin and kissed her, stopping her from completing her words.“I have an upset stomach. If you make me angry, I'll have a stomachache.” After remaining quiet for a while, Jasper realized being harsh did not work on Summer. So, he decided to be gentle with her. He asked his assistant to sort out everything during this period. He thought that he might be able to keep his wife around by using the fact that his stomach had hurt so much that he suffered through gastrointestinal bleeding as a leverage. Summer became panicked when she saw Jasper suddenly turning pale. “Haven't you taken good care of yourself lately?”‘Didn’t his gastric become better some time ago?’“I don't remember how I upset my stomach. Recently, I kept having gastrointestinal bleeding. I went to the hospital when you were away.” Jasper was pretending, and he sounded like a pitiful little boy that nobody wanted. “Then why aren’t you eating well?!” Summer was worrie
“What did you say?” Jasper suddenly became nervous. He did not know why he felt that way either. “I already told you…” Summer lowered her head. She was reluctant to repeat what she had said. She rarely told Jasper that she loved him up front. She always felt that it was very corny. “I can’t hear you.” Jasper closed in on Summer as he looked into her eyes. “I love you!” Summer frowned as she said helplessly. “Yes!” Jasper no longer forced her to repeat it. He was afraid that if he did, he would make her cry again. He pinned her down as he hugged her tightly, treasuring her. “Oh, why did I fall so hard for you?”Summer felt her heart skip a beat. She lowered her head as she curled up. “My ankles hurt. Can you not tie me up at home?”Jasper pondered for a moment. He then stood up and took off the cuffs on Summer’s legs. ‘Well, it makes sense. I’m at home, how could she possibly escape?’“Does it still hurt?” Jasper felt extremely sorry for her. Summer had always been fair
“So you're determined to protect her?” Samson said as he emitted a cold aura. “What are you going to do if I don’t? Are you going to call for experts and bring back your Summer?” Jasper looked at Samson in a profound manner as he spoke again, “Since when have you become so self-deceiving?”Samson looked at Jasper coldly without uttering a word. “Do you really believe these things? Samson, listen. She is Summer and Summer is her. Her identities did not split, it’s her heart that changed. She doesn’t love you anymore.” Jasper got a little worked up. “You’re deceiving yourself, just like the primary identity you believe exists!”The primary identity tormented herself endlessly as she wondered who she loved, Jasper or Samson. “She won't admit that she loved me, and you won’t admit that she doesn't love you anymore. We’re all monsters, she’s the only one who’s normal!”Samson listened to Jasper in silence. He kept quiet for a long time. “As long as I’m here, don’t you dare to make
"Yes, it's exactly like what you think it is," Samson said coldly. He deliberately wanted to make her misunderstand just so that she would give up."Young people like yourselves can fool around, and I won’t say anything about it, but when it comes to marriage, you still need to find a serious person to settle down with. Felicia also likes you. You’re being a disgrace by flirting with Cosmo!" Rose said coldly. She would just forget it if Samson were fooling around, but for him to actually be serious about it? "What about it? Ben’s not under your control even at such a young age. Now, you’re reminded that you have a son like me?" Samson sneered. "I don't have time to talk nonsense with you, I will ask you one last time, where is Cosmo?!""How would I—""I'll say it again, or you will bear with the consequences yourself!" Samson interrupted Rose's words coldly.Seeing her son threatening her so coldly, this was the first time she saw Samson with such a murderous look in his eyes, be
"I'll friggin’ kill you!" Roth was kicked off the bed by Cosmo. It was so painful that his lips turned pale, and his whole body was shaking.After being kicked viciously at the groin area, it seemed like he would not be doing anything with it today."Don't friggin’ touch me!" Cosmo was not an easy target. He may have looked a little more good-looking, but that did not mean he was not a man."Well then, very well..." Roth was in such pain that his teeth chattered. In just a moment, fine sweat popped up on his forehead. "It seems like you never learn, alright then! I will let my people take care of you today!"As Roth pushed himself up by the bedside, he picked up the phone and made a call. "Ask everyone to friggin’ come in and bring in a VCR!"Cosmo's heart started racing. The ropes on his wrists had chaffed his arms so badly that they started bleeding. "Roth, you’re crazy! Let me go now!""I'm waiting for you to kneel down and beg me, bitch!" Roth gritted his teeth and took a d
"Jasper! Jasper! Jasper!" Just as he hung up, Keane called again."What's wrong?" Jasper felt annoyed. "I saw Samson!" Keane said in a low voice excitedly."He went to Princecourt Hotel to find Summer?" Jasper panicked, got up from the sofa, and ran out quickly.He could not let Samson take Summer away."No, no, no, that’s not it!" Keane said as he tried to gasp for air. "I'm following him. Isn't Speed D opposite Princecourt Hotel? The one that’s under the Caesar family. I saw Samson enter that hotel. He seemed to be giving off a gloomy aura, and he even brought his men along too. Is something wrong? Or did he get the wrong information?"Jasper had been running when he came to a screeching halt. He suddenly remembered something. "Have you met Cosmo before?""The one from Universal Movies? I’ve met him before, what's the matter?" Keane was puzzled."How do you think he looks?" Jasper asked again."A grown man, but good-looking?" Keane was a hopeless straight man, and he could
"Chairman Ardly!" River felt like killing someone when he rushed into the hotel room. He never expected that those people would treat Cosmo like this.He was a man!No normal person would associate this sort of thing with a man. And yet...these people did it, and they did it so disgustingly. "Do you want to kill him?" Keane held Samson's arm back after knocking someone out.He seemed to have gone crazy. Every punch he hit was deadly. "Take them away. Treat them the same way, as long as they don’t die, torment them as if you’re trying to kill them!" Samson kicked the person's head. He felt his vision blacking out. Keane took a deep breath. He even heard the sound of the man's neck breaking.He looked at Cosmo, who was lying on the bed. His pale face was bloodless. His upper body was covered while his two long legs were exposed...Keane could not understand it at all, how could these people do such a thing? To a man?River was standing next to the bed with ragged breathing. C
"Samson..." Cosmo called out his name in a daze.Samson stopped walking for a moment. He put Cosmo on the bed and wiped his hair with a bath towel.He was unconscious and slept for a long time. When Cosmo woke up, it was already midnight."Let go of me!" Cosmo woke up suddenly and then looked around in panic. This place is...He looked around in shock. He was actually in Samson's master bedroom!Samson never let him into this room!"Hiss!" He took a deep breath, Cosmo's whole body hurt as if he had been quartered. Tears welled up in his eyes instantly. He dared not recall what happened."Forget about it, forget it all quickly..." He was good at convincing himself. The past was meant to be forgotten...But why couldn’t he forget it this time?He wanted to forget the past, then find a girlfriend, have children to continue the family line, and live the rest of his days well...Wasn't that what he wanted before? That’s right...He could do it. He could definitely do it. "Sam
“I just find it hard to accept the truth. I don’t actually hate you…” After staying silent for a long time, Summer spoke again. “It was… too sudden for me. Give me some time to process this.”Mabel looked at her in shock and covered her mouth. “Sum…”Summer smiled at her and said, “Before I’m able to completely accept it, can I continue to call you Madam?”Mabel covered her mouth in panic and nodded vigorously. “Sure… Call me anything you want…”She actually never cared what Summer called her. It was good enough for her as long as she did not try to avoid her. “Can I hug you?” Summer took the initiative and stretched out her arms. Jasper had told Summer quite a lot about Mabel’s family. Her family was in a very scary place. They started falling into decadence in the later years. In fact, they started showing signs of having a lack of sons. Every leader of the family became anxious about who the next leader would be. They were so worried about who would be the head of the family
Without realizing it, Summer had subconsciously returned to the Miller family’s mansion. “Wifey…” Jasper rushed over to her, wanting to give her a surprise. But instead, she did not react. Her face looked pale too. “Wifey?” He panicked and knelt in front of her. “Sum…”He truly panicked this time. ‘Did she find out about something that I did in the past and is now mad at me?’“Jasper, do you care who my mother is?” Summer asked softly. His heart stopped beating for a second. He felt both distressed and relieved. “No, I don’t. I only care about you.”“Why do I care so much, then…” Summer smiled and hugged him tightly. “I shouldn’t care about it too…”“Everyone has something that they don’t have control over. Sum, go easy on yourself.”Summer lay on top of him, picked up the glass of red wine on the table, and drank it.Jasper just realized that she smelled strongly of alcohol.“Sum…” He was a little worried. His heart ached for her too, but he also wanted to let her be.
Mabel was cooking in the kitchen of the Plath family's mansion. “Madam, stop cooking. Come and eat,” Summer called out to her softly. Mabel smiled at Summer as she emerged with her favorite dish, cinnamon-spiced beef stroganoff.“Sum, let’s eat.” Mabel treated her really well. She helped her with the dishes.Summer was also already used to it. She no longer felt shy. It was natural to her already. Alaric looked at Summer and smiled plainly. “Sum, follow me.” After dinner was over, he asked her to go to the study room. “Is Jasper treating you well?” Alaric asked. “Yes, he’s treating me well.” She smiled. ‘If Jasper hadn't been busy and gone to Mountain City, he would be sticking around, bothering me.’“He pushed back too much work to get ready for the wedding. He wants to finish making work arrangements as soon as possible and go on a honeymoon with me.”“Sum, there’s something that I’ve been hiding from you. You’ve always wanted to know your biological mother, right?” A
“Mr. Jasper Miller, do you take Summer Plath as your lawful wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?”“I do,” Jasper said the two words confidently.‘I’m willing to take care of her and be by her side forever.‘I’ll always love her.‘She’ll always be my number one.’“Ms. Summer Plath, do you take Jasper Miller as your lawful husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do you part?”“… I do.”She purposely hesitated for a long time. Jasper was so scared that his face turned pale.After she chuckled and said ‘I do’, he gritted his teeth, pulled her into his embrace, and kissed her.He kissed Summer even before the officiant had asked him to kiss the bride.She was so embarrassed by the kiss that her ears turned red.“Jasper!”Jas
Benjamin rolled his eyes at Aaron. “I belong to the bride's side. You should go to Jasper’s side.”“He doesn’t deserve it,” Aaron said stubbornly.Summer covered her mouth and chuckled. Everyone was immersed in the festive atmosphere of the wedding. ‘Wouldn’t it be nice if we could stay this happy all the time?’“Hey, should we play a prank on the groom tomorrow? Let’s spice things up a little!” The bridesmaids started planning something.“You guys better be careful. You’re all pregnant. Don’t stir up too much chaos,” Summer said with a smile. “Seriously, it’s as they say: women always side with their husbands once they’re married. Look at you, you’re already siding with him.” A few of them teased Summer. Summer blushed so hard that she could not say anything in response. “Congratulations, Sum.”Hers and Jasper’s friends and relatives came one after another. All of them would be attending the wedding ceremony tomorrow afternoon. Edward would be there with Trent too.
After all, this matter was related to Edward’s mother because of her meeting with Hanna’s mother.She sat on the sofa and thought a lot. Would they get a divorce? Would Edward’s father hate her because of this?Edward sat on the sofa and quietly accompanied his mother. “About this matter... Let's not tell Jen first. She may not be able to handle it.”Edward’s mother nodded, in tears. Then, she shook her head. “It was all my fault.”Edward’s father finally came out of the study. Edward looked at his father nervously. He was afraid that his father would blame his mother.“I... I really did not know anything about it. I just thought she lived a difficult life. I felt guilty, so I asked someone to send her some money. I did not know what happened to her after that!” Edward’s mother panicked and started crying. Edward’s father walked to her side. He did not blame her, but passed her a tissue. “Is this how you should behave in front of your son? Stop crying.”Edward’s mother sobb
“I deserve it!”Nieva was brought away by the police. She should have expected that this was the consequence of offending Jasper.Jasper was busy with the wedding and he did not care much about her. Otherwise, she might have gone through worse than being arrested.…… At the Reeves family house in Mountain City...“Are you Hanna Delacruz? Let’s talk.”Edward’s father asked Hanna to go into the study, leaving Edward and his mother in the living room.“Edward, I already know about the issue concerning your father.”“Mom...” Edward felt a little guilty. “I know about everything.” Edward’s mother shook her head. “This matter is related to your father and me. This is what owed Hanna’s mother, but if you two have to pay for our mistakes. We...”“Mom, this is no one’s fault.” Edward shook his head. In the study...Edward’s father asked Hanna to go into the room. His expression was dreary. “Are you Venus’ daughter?”“Do you still remember my mother?” Hanna smiled and kept a stra
Samson nodded as he watched Rose leaving.Charlie ran out of the courtyard and stood still. He looked a little distressed.He was just a child...Perhaps it was because he had a mother who set up a scheme against him and used him as a chess piece that he was more mature than other children.In the past, he wanted to live. He wanted not just to live but to prevent his mother from setting up a scheme against him.He was still Rose’s son, even if Rose had used a despicable way to give birth to him.“Let’s go home...” Samson walked toward Charlie and rubbed his head.“Samson...” Charlie lifted his head, and his eyes were red.“From now on, you have not just me, but your friends, younger brothers and sisters, and many older brothers and sisters who love you.” Samson smiled at Charlie.Everyone could be redemption for other people, and other people could be their redemption, too.Charlie nodded and ran back to the Miller family’s mansion.Melody was carrying her grandchildren and
Jasper did not care whether Thomas intended to hurt Summer or not.As long as Summer was shocked, he would not allow it.“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Do you know Aiden, who is always with Thomas?” He was Summer’s childhood friend. Summer did not know that Aiden was secretly protecting her. He was seriously injured and almost lost his life many times because of Summer.”Jasper frowned. “Since he did not want to let Summer know about this, why is he making Summer more distressed?”Jasper admired Aiden a lot because he never showed his love for Summer, but he had silently done many things for Summer.“Jasper, you can just confess if you’re scared. You don’t have to put yourself in a higher status.” Keane rolled his eyes.“Fine, you will go to Country T for a business trip.” Jasper was threatening Keane.“Jasper, I’m sorry, it’s my fault...”…...The wedding was getting closer. Everyone was busy helping Jasper and Summer with their wedding.“Look at the dresses and gowns for my grandchildren.
