In a flash, Chelsey pulled up her shirt.She glared at Lucas and scolded, "Are you out of your mind? This is the ladies' restroom. Why did you come in?"Lucas' handsome face had a subtle blush as he confidently replied, "You've been in here for so long. I was worried, so I came in to check on you."Chelsey frowned when she heard his explanation."Didn't you just say you don't know me? Why did you come looking for me? Just continue pretending we're strangers!" she retorted."Sorry."Lucas pursed his lips, hesitating to say more. "You're crazy! Get out!"Chelsey extended her hands to push Lucas out. However, he strode into the stall and embraced her tightly.Lucas really missed Chelsey. Thoughts of her filled his mind every waking moment.Chelsey found it difficult to breathe as Lucas held her too tightly."Let me go! Let go!" she demanded while pounding her fists on Lucas' chest.Lucas then whispered, "Give me one more month. I'll come to Westine to find you and Collie.
Even though Lucas and Timothy were once rivals, they found an unexpected connection through the same woman. Both of them wanted to protect Chelsey and Cole. They also hoped that the mother and son would be happy. Lucas was grateful to Timothy. "Thank you.""No need to thank me. When you're safe, take good care of Chels. If you mistreat her, I'll break your legs," Timothy threatened.Although he felt unwilling, there was nothing he could do. "Don't worry. I won't."Lucas added, "I'll treat the baby as my own and take good care of him."Timothy was speechless.He could not help but chuckle. How could Lucas be so foolish?He was not even aware that Cole was his child. No wonder Chelsey refused to deal with him and insisted on raising Cole alone. Timothy hung up the phone, tossed it on the spacious office desk, and continued working.After a busy morning, he took a break in the afternoon and headed to the Jenson residence.Timothy had been too busy lately. Thus, he on
There were only five necklaces of that kind nationwide.And each was priced at two million dollars.Lia's monthly allowance was only several thousand, so how could she afford a two-million-dollar necklace?At the sight of Timothy, Lia happily approached him and greeted, "Hello, Mr. Somner. Long time no see. Are you here to visit Chels and the baby again?""Yes," Timothy replied indifferently. He did not even avert his gaze to glance at Lia.Lia had always ignored Cole. But that day, she approached the baby and joyfully played with him.The scent of her perfume was overpowering. Timothy frowned and said straightforwardly, "Your perfume is too strong. Stay away from the baby. Otherwise, it might trigger rhinitis.""In that case, I'll return to my room to change," Lia answered, smiling awkwardly.After saying that, she walked into the house in her four-inch heels. Chelsey watched her retreating figure, lost in thought."What are you thinking about?" asked Timothy.Chelse
Lia frowned with disdain. "Chels, have you been through something? How could you go to the sperm bank? That's so disgusting!""What's disgusting about it? I get to select the best genes and have a beautiful baby. Besides, there's no one fighting me for custody. I think it's great."Chelsey lowered her head to glance at her obedient and cute baby. The more she thought about it, the more convinced she was that giving birth to Cole was wise.Chelsey would still be in her prime when Cole grows older. So it would not affect her career.Lia pursed her lips and replied, "No matter what, I won't have a child so early. I'm still a kid myself. Taking care of a child would make me a middle-aged woman."Chelsey, on the other hand, was calm. "Everyone has their own choices. I won't impose my thoughts on you. You don't need to impose yours on me. Isn't it good that we respect each other?"Lia countered, "Fine. I respect you. I can't stop you if you want to become a middle-aged woman. Do
Felicity's heart melted at the thought of Fred.After a prolonged silence, she awkwardly replied, "No, I won't. Your Uncle Fred will find someone better for him.""He might not find someone better. Maybe Uncle Fred will be a bachelor for the rest of his life. Fel, why don't you like him?"Chelsey could see that Fred had genuine feelings for Felicity. Felicity also seemed to have feelings for him. That was why Chelsey wanted to play matchmaker before Felicity left.Felicity remained silent. It was not that she disliked Fred. It was simply because she was afraid of marriage and did not want to be tied down.She preferred an unrestrained life.Chelsey earnestly persuaded, "Fel, please give Uncle Fred a chance. He really likes you and will definitely be a good husband. His character is impeccable."After living with the Jenson family for a while, Felicity had grown to like everyone except for Lia.Edward and Dianne treated her well. Sometimes, Dianne would wake up in the mi
After doing the deed, Felicity gracefully got out of bed to shower.She did not remove her top to prevent Fred from seeing her belly. Fred, exhausted, looked at her with a satisfied smile. "Felly, I'm starting to like you more.""Don't fall for me. It won't end well," Felicity retorted before entering the bathroom.After showering, she dressed and walked out of Fred's room.On the other hand, Fred lay in bed, replaying the wild moment they just shared in his mind.How could he spend a lifetime with Felicity?Ever since Fred met Felicity, he had lost interest in other women. Every fiber of his being was fixated on her.He had also completely cut ties with his friends with benefits. All Fred wanted was to spend quality time with Felicity.Felicity returned to the second-floor lounge.She looked out the window before gazing at Chelsey's and Clara's rooms. Chelsey was sound asleep while Clara was feeding Cole.Every night before bed, Chelsey would prepare some breast milk
"Is it Lucas?" Chelsey inquired.The first person that came to her mind was him. "No, it's not Mr. Yates. Take another guess," Jason responded."Who on earth is it?"Chelsey no longer had the patience to guess. She was eager to know the answer.So, Jason stopped teasing her and revealed the answer."It's Mr. Langley—Civi Group's president! He approached me just now and asked you to help him with the design."Chelsey felt elated after hearing that. "Okay, I'll design it!"It would be her first time designing a 300-carat diamond jewelry. She was ecstatic just thinking about it.This would also be the pinnacle of her career.Jason continued, "Mr. Langley wants to meet you and discuss the details. Let me know when you're free.""I'm available anytime. Check with Mr. Langley about his schedule," Chelsey responded."Alright, I'll arrange a meeting with Mr. Langley and let you know the time.""Okay."After ending the call, Chelsey scrolled through her gallery and found the
Chelsey had not expected Tobias to be so straightforward.She was momentarily stunned before awkwardly saying, "I don't have a boyfriend, but I have a child.""You're indeed a role model for modern women, Ms. Jenson. So, you have a child but don't have a husband?" Tobias looked at Chelsey with interest, his gaze becoming less pure.Chelsey pursed her lips and replied, "Sort of. I think there's nothing wrong with raising a child alone. "There's no need to add to my troubles by looking for a man. Besides, I can afford to raise my child on my own.""Cool!" Tobias exclaimed, clapping his hands. "Not only do you have a charming appearance, but also an interesting soul. It's my honor to know you, Ms. Jenson."Chelsey maintained a polite smile.However, she felt that Tobias' gaze was somewhat strange.It was their first meeting, yet his eyes gave the impression that he had known her for quite a while.Chelsey could not help but think it was odd. Nevertheless, she did not dwell
