Thaddeus suddenly felt something soft, and he retrieved his hand at once.Amy pressed herself against him once more, hugging his waist."Teddy, don't leave today. I miss you so much. I cooked your favorite Borscht soup for two hours. Shall I serve you a bowl?" asked Amy.Amy lifted her head for a kiss, her waist-length curls swaying behind her.Thaddeus gently played with her earlobe, and she couldn't help but let out a soft moan.After knowing Thaddeus for so many years, this was the first time he had been so close to her. She closed her eyes to feel the warmth from his touch on her earlobe. This made her legs feel weak, and she leaned into him."Teddy, Teddy …" she whispered.Thaddeus suddenly withdrew his hand, placing it in front of Amy."When did you buy this pair of earrings?" he asked.Amy looked at him with a blurry stare, wondering why the topic shifted to earrings after their flirtatious interaction. She complained, "You're so annoying. Why did you pull out my earrin
Thaddeus looked at the woman in his arms, desire flickering in his eyes. He gently slid his hand over Amy's cheek."Are you not urging me to divorce anymore?" he asked.Amy was momentarily confused before realizing that he mistook her for Jessamine.She couldn't believe that bitch!Amy thought Thaddeus was finally going to genuinely accept her, just like an adult man would to a woman he likes. She thought he wanted to possess her. Her heart swelled with joy, ready to give herself to him completely. But just as she was getting emotional, reality rained on her parade.She felt heartbroken momentarily but quickly calmed down.Thaddeus cradled her face and pecked her a few times. However, he noticed the woman in his arms showed no reaction. She just stared at him with a hurtful look.He instantly lost interest in continuing any further."It's been three years, and you're still like a block of wood," he commented disdainfully.Amy helped him back to the master bedroom. The room w
Sasha showed no intention of backing down, making it clear she said that to provoke Jessamine."Jessamine, Grandpa is here because of you. Just how much harm do you want to bring to us?" she asked.Jessamine glanced at her mother-in-law, Heather, who stood there impassively. It was as if she hadn't heard her daughter's disrespectful words. Her indulgent attitude only fueled Sasha's rude behavior.Though Heather was usually friendly with Jessamine, her impression of Heather took a significant hit at that moment.Sasha was lacking in manners and was far from the demeanor expected of an heiress in a prestigious family.Jessamine's gaze swept over the people present, and she smiled mockingly.Sasha felt offended. She was clearly scolding Jessamine, but what was with her attitude?She sneered and asked, "Why are you smiling?"Jessamine couldn't be bothered to deal with Sasha and pointed at the "Keep Quiet" sign on the wall."Keep it down. This is a hospital. Don't make a spectacle
Noah pressed the button for the second floor, and the elevator quickly descended.Upon reaching the second floor, Noah walked directly into an examination room, with Jessamine following behind.Inside the room was a young doctor who appeared similar in age to Noah.Noah led Jessamine to sit in front of the doctor's desk."Samuel, could you please take a look at her face? How do we reduce the swelling?" he asked hurriedly.Samuel Watson directed his gaze at Jessamine's face and teased, "Wow, Noah, where did you find such a beautiful young lady?"It took Noah a moment to regain his senses before he said, "Prescribe some topical medicine suitable for pregnant women."Samuel wrote a prescription as requested. When he heard Noah's request, he held his pen and lifted his eyes to look at Noah with a hint of playfulness."Man, things are moving quite fast for you," teased Samuel.Noah coldly responded, "Stop talking nonsense. She's my … nephew's wife."Samuel was taken aback momentar
Thaddeus had a throbbing headache because of his current situation."I'll give you an explanation later," he said.Since waking up and finding Amy lying next to him, he hadn't relaxed his frown."Something urgent came up. I need to leave now," he informed.As Thaddeus spoke, he had already put his shoes on.Amy ran over crying and pleaded, "Teddy, can you move in and stay with me? I can't sleep alone at night, and I often have nightmares. I'm afraid my heart might suddenly feel pain, and there's no one to take care of me."Thaddeus untangled her hands around his waist."Amy, it's not time yet. I promised to give you an explanation. If you feel lonely, go back home. Your parents are also in Zenville," he said bluntly.Amy was speechless. She could only watch him leave and waited for the promised explanation.Thaddeus took the elevator directly to the basement.After Jordan drove Thaddeus here last night, he waited in the parking lot. At some point, he dozed off, leaning agains
Jessamine pushed his hand away and shouted, "Don't touch me, you filthy thing!"The two arrived at the entrance of an emergency exit. There weren't many people around in the morning, and the hallway was quiet."Did you tell Grandpa about our situation?" Thaddeus questioned.Thaddeus couldn't think of anything else that could have triggered Thomas' sudden heart attack. Naturally, he suspected that Jessamine had leaked their impending divorce.Jessamine sneered. "Don't you know what you've done?"Thaddeus lit a cigarette and took a deep drag."What have I done? Explain clearly," he said.Watching his every move, Jessamine couldn't help but think that he was taking an after-sex cigarette.He had fun the whole night yesterday, but he made Thomas go through a perilous experience.She sneered again and said, "Grandpa fainted after hearing your call. I know you have a pretty good sex life, but is it necessary for the whole world to know about it?"If you don't like me, I'll make wa
The door clicked shut after Jordan left.After completing the task, Jordan felt relieved. Luckily, he was quick-witted. Otherwise, he might not have been able to handle Amy.Inside the house, after Amy closed the door, she rushed to the bathroom and vomited out the pill.The man hiding behind the door came over to help her."Honey, how about we do it again? I didn't finish just now when we got interrupted," he said.Amy rolled her eyes at the man and said coldly, "You can leave now."Unwilling to give up, the man lifted her and kissed her. His hands weren't idle either, as he teased her in various ways."You wanted it just a moment ago. Why the sudden change of attitude?" the man asked.Amy's desire was quickly stirred up by his actions."You have quite a high sex drive. Didn't Mr. Holt satisfy you last night? I've fucked you twice already. How many times do you need to be satisfied?" he teased.The man kept teasing her without giving her the satisfaction she wanted.Weakene
After speaking, Thomas coughed a few times. His body was so weak that he couldn't summon any energy. It was a far cry from the spirited figure he displayed a few days ago during his morning workout in the yard.Jessamine cried uncontrollably. She was reminded of her grandmother, whose health had deteriorated rapidly after a simple fall in the yard. Half a year later, they were separated forever.At his age, people's bodies were extremely fragile. They could leave this world at any time."Grandpa, please stop talking and rest," urged Jessamine.Thomas sighed, and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes. Then he began to cough violently.Jessamine was so distressed that words failed her."Grandpa, please stop coughing. I promise. I promise …" she pleaded.After a prolonged bout of coughing, Thomas finally settled down. He stroked Jessamine's hair and looked at her apologetically."I frightened you, didn't I? Did you stay up all night? Go back and rest. This bastard will stay w
