Richard’s POV:I had not expected that the person I saw was not my grandfather, but a young girl.My grandfather had always lived in seclusion and didn’t like to interact with outsiders. Other than working and studying herbs, he didn’t have contact with others.‘How could there be a girl in this courtyard?’I frowned and looked at the girl coldly.I still remember that many years ago, my grandfather had admitted a woman as his only student in his life, and my grandfather had even decided to let that woman become his successor.‘However, I should be grandfather’s legal and reasonable successor. My mother was grandfather’s only daughter, and my father also married into the Murphy’s. Shouldn’t everything that the pants belong to me?’Sometimes, I didn’t know what my grandfather was thinking.The girl looked at me for a while, then she ignored me and continued to classify the herbs that had mixed.“Hello, my name is Richard. I’m the grandson of the owner of the courtyard.” I introduced my
Richard’s POV:However, I didn’t want to sing. So, I just tilted my head and watched Vivian singing.She seemed to have gone crazy. She ordered over a dozen songs, all of which were hard rock.I frowned as I listened. She was no longer the girl I remembered. She was once an innocent little girl. Her voice was sweet as if it was from heaven. She told me that the song she sang was called “Paradise.”I got a pain in my head and felt sick somehow, so I got up and headed to the bathroom.As soon as I walked out of the corridor, I saw a timed girl pressed against the wall by a man.The man held a glass of wine in his hand and said, “Cathy, drink this and I will ask my father to give the order to your family.”The girl shook her head, “Mr. Pitcher, I don’t know how to drink.”“You are embarrassing me? You are not drinking, are you?” The man frowned. He seemed to be a little angry.The girl said, “Mr. Pitcher, I really don’t know how to drink.”“You don’t know how to drink, do you? Alright. J
Darren’s POV:I noticed that Hallie hadn’t returned for a long time. So, I come out to look for her.Just as I walked out of the private room, I saw Hallie coming out with a bottle of water in her hand.She smiled and said, “I was little thirsty just now, so I went to buy this.”“Everything alright? Do you want to stay here a little longer?” I asked.She said worriedly. “I’m fine, but Ailina may not. She had already hit Mr. Pitcher. I’m worried that Pitcher’s would sue her. So, I called dad and asked him to think about it.”I frowned and said, “Hallie, you are just too kind. Think about what Ailina had done to you! But now you still want to help her.”“Darren she is my sister! Besides, being with you, I am actually sorry for her. I want to do something for her.” She lowered her eyes, looking extremely pitiful.“You need not to be sorry for her. It was all her fault. You and I are in love. We did nothing wrong. Hallie, you don’t have to feel guilty.” I said, holding her in my arms.The
Hallie’s POV:After I came back home, I told Mom what happened in the KTV.“Mom, Ailina might really embarrassed our family this time. If the Pitcher’s really wanted to make things hard, she would probably have to go to jail!” I said with a smile.“Ailina said that Peter was doing something disgraceful to that girl called Cathy before being hit.” Mom said.Hearing that, I smiled. “Mom in the surveillance footage, Mr. Pitcher has never bullied Cathy.Mom looked up at me. I blinked at her and then, we started laughing.“However, I think that Ailina knows something about computers. Will she repair the surveillance footage?” Mom asked.I snorted coldly. “Mom, you are thinking about the PS photo again, right? PS was simple, but repairing surveillance footage required a professional technique. Besides, it was not broken. It was deleted. The footage has never existed. How could she repair something that was not there?”Mom thought for a moment and nodded. “Hallie, you are awesome!”Jayden’s
Mrs. Pitcher’s POV:Seeing George coming over, I looked at him arrogantly.“Mrs. Pitcher, I beg you! Please let Ailina off! I am here to apologize on her behalf. I will ask professional nurse to take care of your young master. I can double the compensation you said. Is that okay?”I sneered. “Nurse? Can’t be afforded? What I want is Ailina to take care of my son herself. That’s the deal.”“Ailina has never done anything since she was a child. She certainty can’t take good care of your son.” He said anxiously. He looked like he was about to cry.“If she can’t, then let her learn. If she can’t learn, then we will see at the police station.” My tone is cold and firm.Susan advised Ailina from the side. “Ailina just say yes. It’s better to take care of someone than go to prison. If you leave behind a criminal record, you are entire life will be ruined!”Ailina looked at Susan and said, “Isn’t that what you want?”“How would you think of me like that?” Susan said with a sad expression.She
Cathy’s POV:Not long before, I received a call from George. He called me and asked me to be Ailina’s witness.Mom tied my collar and said, “Cathy, this is time you must help Ailina. They kept saying that your father and I are there benefactors. However, to be honest, Ailina and her mother are the real benefactors for us. She did this to help you. No matter what, you must save her!”I nodded. “Mom, I will.”I reached out and touched my mother’s face, which had changed beyond recognition. “Mom, do you regret? Do you regret saving Ailina and others?”She shook her her head. “No. Saving them is the best choice I have made in my life.”“But your face…”“It’s nothing!”I nodded. “Mom, then I’m leaving!”“Cathy, don’t be afraid. There are many things you have to face in the end.” She hugged me and said.I took a deep breath and smiled. “Mom, don’t worry. I can deal with it.”She stuffed some money into my hand, saying, “Take a taxi. Hurry up!”“Yes!” I held the money and walked out of the d
Susan’s POV:I originally thought that Ailina and the Wilson family were doomed. But now, not only would Ailina not leave behind a criminal record, but she would also become a heroine who saved an innocent girl.George hurriedly came over to greet Ryan. But as soon as he walked over and extended his hand, he ignored George and left.He stood there, his hand froze in the midair.Then, Ryan walked directly to Ailina and smiled. “Ailina, you have grown up and become more and more like your mother!”She pursed her lips and smiled. “Uncle Venzor, hasn’t changed a bit. You are still as heroic as before!”Ryan rubbed her hair. “Such a talker. Are you free tonight? Let’s have dinner!”“Alright!” She didn’t refuse and nodded.Seeing this, I came to George’s side and asked in a low voice. “George, Wilson family and Mr. Venzor are they still on good terms. Aren’t you going to say hi?”Then, we walked to Ailina and Ryan’s side.“Mr. Venzor, I really have to thank you this time. If it was not you,
Ailina’s POV:Ryan and I met at the Royal Hotel’s restaurant.This is a high-end club integrating catering and hotel entertainment. Ordinary people cannot afford the level of consumption here.I drove over and found the booked box.I thought that I was having a meal with only Uncle Venzor, but I never expected that more people were waiting for me.Just as I opened the door, four people stood up immediately and welcomed me.“Ailina!”“My Ailina!”“My Little Ailina!”“You look more and more like your mother!”My mouth twitched as I asked, “Uncle Grimm, Uncle Helsen and Uncle Clements. Why are you all here?”Uncle Kester’s eyes widened. “What? You are not willing to see us?”“Ailina, you dislike us being too old, huh? I’m already working very hard maintain myself young!” Davian Helsen touched his face, saying, “I’m not gonna embarrass you, am I?”Only Uncle Derick Clements didn’t say anything. He seized me up and down and asked, “Did you hurt in the fight?”I shook my head. “No, not at a
Six months later.Wearing a white wedding dress, Adriana slowly walked toward Rican, who stood on the stage smiling at her.As she walked, memories from her previous life replayed in her mind over and over again. She didn’t know what kind of good deeds she had done in the past to deserve this second chance from God—a chance to protect her loved ones, to take revenge on those who had hurt her, and most importantly…A chance to meet the love of her life.Adriana knew there were still many challenges ahead, but she also knew that, from now on, she would never be alone. There was someone she could rely on when she was tired. Someone who would support her when she fell.After taking their vows, Rican and Adriana exchanged rings, and the crowd of family and friends erupted into applause and cheers."Now, the groom may kiss the bride," the officiant announced.Hearing this, Rican gazed at her deeply, lifted her veil, and then lowered his head to kiss her passionately."Thank you, Ailina, for
Patrick’s POV:Then, I began to apply makeup for Ailina. Her good skin speeded up her makeup, and her styling was also fast. I gave Ailina a white gauze dress. “Please change into this.”I looked at the dress with a frown, wondering, “What event do I have to wear a wedding dress for?”“It’s normal dress, not a wedding dress. Hurry up and change. The event will start soon.” I pushed her.Ailina had changed into the dress.She seemed to look elegant and extraordinary like a lotus after putting on the dress.“So beautiful. Alright, go ahead.” I snapped.Ailina’s POV:I looked at my appearance and felt that something was wrong.But I didn’t think too much about it. I asked Patrick, “Where is the event?”He said, “Go and ask others. They will take you there.”“Okay,” I walked out of the door.As soon as I walked out, a woman greeted me with a smile. “Miss Wilson, are you going to participate in the event? Let's go, I will take you there. I will be responsible for picking up the guests toda
Ailina’s POV:The hot air balloon we rode gradually took to the sky. The view at night was very different from the view during the day. Looking down from the sky, the lights were bright.I sat in the heart of the balloon and said, “I had rather be a part of the down there.”As soon as I finished speaking, something came in front of my eyes. I then saw a swarm of fireflies flying out of the hot air balloon. The fireflies that filled the sky were like stars, flashing.I was surprised, “Why are there so many fireflies?”Ricky hugged me and answered, “That’s a secret. Well, does it look good?”I nodded and reached out to catch the fireflies. He held my hand and said, “Be careful. You will fall.”I quickly grabbed the rope beside me and looked up. Suddenly, I found a very bright star. “The star is so bright. I am curious what the name of the star is.”He replied, “Let’s take a look.”I blinked, “Take a look?”He nodded and controlled the hot air balloon to fly up. “Yes.”I felt a little am
Ailina’s POV:Ricky raised his phone up and I could not reach it. We noisily ran to the edge of the island.There was a ship to pick us up there.We took a boat out of the island and then back to the shore.As soon as we landed, we saw our grandpas wearing beach clothes and hats and having a barbecue.Martin kept putting chill sauce on the roast. Grandpa stopped him and said, “No more chill sauce!”Martin ignored Grandpa’s words.Grandpa tried to snatch the brush from Martin’s hand.“Ailina likes spicy food,” Martin said.“Ricky doesn’t eat spicy food.” Grandpa disagreed.The two old men said at the same time. They looked at each other and laughed.Martin patted Grandpa’s shoulders and said, “Didn’t expect you to still remember that. Ricky doesn’t eat spicy food. Ricky is so lucky!”The grandpa also laughed. His eyes were full of gratitude. He replied, “I am so glad that you remember that Ailina loves to eat spicy food. Well, I’m reviled now. She must be happy living with you looking
At the moment, our paraglider landed on the ground.Before I could react, Ricky untied the equipment on my hand and walked towards me, holding my hand.In front of us was a sea of flowers with various colors. I did not even know any flowers. The wind blew gently, and the petals danced with the wind.“Where is it?” I looked at the sea flower, surprised, and walked into it.He followed me and said, “It’s called Jade Island.”“Jade Island?” I looked at him in surprise. “Why have I not heard such an island? Is it a name you gave?”“Yes,” he nodded.“You know how to give a name?” I laughed. “Then what is the original name of this island? I never knew there was such an island.”“I built this island, so I named it Jade Island. Is there a problem?” He raised his eyebrows.“No, absolutely not. You have a lot of money, so you have the final say.”“What kind of tone of your words?” He reached out and pulled me into his arms. His voice became deep. “This Island was built for you.”“Built for me?”
Ailina’s POV:I looked at Ricky’s jealous expression and could not help bending my lips, “They are fresher than you.”He said, “You rotten thing who loves the new and loathes the old.” He bit my gently.He lifted my clothes and with his finger.“I am still on my period.” I held his hand.“What?” He was stunned for a while and suddenly understood what I meant. He hugged me and said, “What day?”“The last day.” I lowered my eyes and blushed,“Alright, then, I will restrain myself.” He kissed me on the lips, bent down and picked me up from the ground. “The ground is cold. Go to the bed and rest.”He placed me on the bed and lay beside me. He asked, “Are you tired?”“Not bad.”“Are you hungry?”“No.”“Then lie down for a while. It’s time to eat later. After eating, I will take you to play something exciting.” He pitched my little nose, stretched out his arm and pulled me into his embrace.He said, in a low voice, “Ailina, in the future, no matter what happens, please believe me. We must n
Rican’s POV:The next day, I returned to Alfonzo to discuss marriage with my family.The entire family was pleased.Mom laughed and said, “Rican, you have to marry my idol. I can see Ailina every day in the future.”Grandpa is also very happy, “Alright, my granddaughter-in-law can make tea for me every day. Don’t say that the tea Ailina makes is better than any of you.”Although dad didn’t say anything, he was also happy for me.I said, “Mom, please buy us something for the wedding as soon as possible.”She laughed, “Since you two met both partners' parents, I began to buy things, so don’t worry, I won't treat Ailina unfairly.”I nodded. Of course, before the wedding, I would propose.The last time Ailina asked for a proposal. I had been preparing for a long time. I should propose to her these days.And this time, I wanted everyone to know that Ailina was my fiancée.The last engagement seems to have been little too hasty. Ailina and I had already been engaged, but few people know tha
Ailina’s POV:As soon as the door opened, Ricky hugged me and deeply sniffed me. Then, he coughed violently.I coughed and said, “What did you smell?”He said, honestly, “Hot pot.”I was embarrassed. “I went to have hot pot with Adriana in the afternoon. I have not bathed and changed my clothes yet. Who knows? You are like a puppy, sniffing desperately when you see me.”“I am like a puppy. Not only do I want to smell you, but I also want to bite it.” He said, as he bent over and carried me in his arms.As Ricky spoke, he bit my lips tightly. I covered my lips and pouted, “Really? It hurts.”“Then, bite me back!”I felt as if all strength in my body had been drained. I hung in Rican, blinking my eyes as I looked at him. I said, “Are you waiting for me to let you in?”He nodded.“Tricky.” I bit his ear.He whispered, “I wait for you, every day.”I was slightly stunned. ‘What? He had been on my door every night lately?’‘How was this possible?’He carried me into his house. We went upsta
Ailina’s POV:After I blocked the reporters outside the door, I didn’t dress up. I just sat in the living room looking at my phone. I know that Adriana certainly called me again after she left.Sure enough, after waiting for about two hours, she called me.“I am at the hotel. Don’t worry about me. I have booked a flight for tomorrow. Remember to come and send me off early tomorrow morning.” She requested at the end of the phone.“What time? Which flight?” I asked, “Which hotel are you at now?”Suddenly, call ended.I panicked. ‘What the hell? What had happened again?’While I was still thinking, I received a video call from Adriana.I answered and saw that Adriana was lying on the bed in her pajamas with her hair, slightly wet. She said with a smile, “Look, how is the hotel I live in?”She took her phone and walked around the hotel. I complaine
