When Alondra was pushed out of the operation room, the old lady and her son rushed over and asked the doctor, "Where is the child? How about it? Is it a boy or a girl?"
"Sorry, we did our best. The child was not saved, and we saved the adult." The doctor looked at them with regret.
"What?" How could this be? Didn't I tell you to protect my grandson? What's the matter with you doctors? I will sue you; I will sue you." When Mrs. Baxter heard that her grandson was not saved, she immediately became anxious. At the door of the delivery room, she began to loudly mutter, clamor, and cry as she started to curse.
At this time, Elizabeth simply did not have time to pay attention to the completely weird members, as she quickly walked to the front of the stretcher and saw Alondra lying on it. She was still unconscious, but there were tears clearly flowing down from her eyes.
She extended her hand and held Alondra's cold hand tightly: "Alondra, everything is alright n
Inside the luxurious presidential suite, clothes were scattered all over the floor.The night was eerily quiet; only the sound of running water in the bathroom could be heard.Elizabeth Hubbard quietly lay on the bed, her clear black eyes fixed on the bathroom door. Her fists clenched beneath the quilt, creasing the bed sheets.With a creak, the bathroom door opened and a well-built man stepped out, the scent of shower gel lingering in the air.Ronald Marquez didn't even spare a glance at Elizabeth. Instead, he bent over to pick up the clothes on the floor. Then, he walked to the mirror and slowly put them on one by one."Sir..." Elizabeth called softly, her gaze fixed on his broad, muscular back."Um-hum," the man replied without turning, his voice indifferent."Th-this will be the last time. I'm able to cover my brother's medical expenses now," she murmured, her voice barely above a whisper, timidity written all over her face.Upon hearing that, Ronald paused for a moment, mid-motio
Upon hearing that, grim-faced Blaze instantly stood up and ordered, "Oh, dear! Hurry up and come with me to welcome our distinguished guest! Now!"Within moments, all the management staff in the meeting room stood up and followed the general manager out of the office, heading towards the elevator to go downstairs.Elizabeth was at the back, and as soon as she entered the elevator, the overloaded alarm went off.In his rush, Blaze waved at her. "Ms. Hubbard, take the next one."Elizabeth nodded and stepped out of the elevator.She waited for another three or four minutes before entering the next elevator. As she stepped into it, her cell phone rang from her pocket.It was Dalia Bender, a waiter from the housekeeping department, sending a picture that was clearly taken secretly.Dalia: "Our Mr. Mysterious is super gorgeous. Ms. Hubbard, hurry up and come down!"Elizabeth chuckled. She then casually zoomed in on the picture. With a single glance, she felt all the blood in her body congea
The moment Elizabeth met his gaze, a cold sweat broke out across her skin as if her heart had stopped beating.It was him. It was really him, the man who saved her brother's life two years ago, and also the man to who she lost her virginity."So she's the housekeeper you referred to?" He said in a low yet extremely magnetic voice.His gaze had already moved away from Elizabeth, and the expression on his face seemed to not have changed in the slightest.'Maybe he didn't recognize me at all?' Elizabeth hoped so.Blaze immediately turned to look at the elevator and saw Elizabeth standing there in a daze. He immediately made the introduction."Mr. Marquez, this is the manager of the housekeeping department, Elizabeth.""Ms. Hubbard, this is our distinguished guest, Mr. Marquez, who comes from the distant Lochapple. It's our great honor to have Mr. Marquez here." Even when Blaze was introducing him to Elizabeth, he did not forget to flatter Ronald.Speaking of Lochapple, he seemed to have
The main hall of the presidential suite was covered with a thick cashmere carpet imported from New Zealand. Handmade with care, it felt soft and plush underfoot as if one was stepping on clouds.However, given the circumstances, even if Elizabeth really stepped on the clouds, she wouldn't have enjoyed it.Ronald walked to the side of the sofa and sat down. Elizabeth followed beside him and wanted to speak, but she did not know what to say.She wasn't even sure if Ronald had recognized her or not.If he hadn't remembered her from the start, then her current awkward silence would only seem absurd."Um...Mr. Marquez, what would you like for dinner?' she asked, forcing a smile. 'We've prepared a menu for you, and I'll show it to you now."Although she did not wanna be his housekeeper, she had to carry out her duties now that the situation had already forced her into the position.She turned around and walked over to the bookshelf. Then she took down a menu they had prepared beforehand and
In the evening, Ronald and Oliver left the hotel for the banquet. When Elizabeth returned back to her office, she heard people whispering among themselves."Do you know? Mr. Marquez's background is incredible. He's the boss behind the biggest consortium in our country and the leader of the Imperial Group.""Really? No wonder Mr. Booth is so nervous. Many big shots had come here, but I had never seen him so cautious like this.""How can he not be cautious? No one before has such an identity. I really envy Ms. Hubbard. She can Mr. Marquez! Since Ms. Hubbard is so beautiful, could it be that she is lucky and Mr. Marquez gets his eye on her, and directly takes her back to be his wife?""Don't talk nonsense. If that housekeeping girl heard it, she would blame you. Her position as the housekeeper was taken away. You can't imagine how jealous she is now."They were whispering to each other, and neither of them noticed that there was a figure approaching them from the other side."You have no
Elizabeth looked at her phone, she was stunned for half a second before she quickly stood up and went downstairs.The Wildecastle Club was the highest-class private club in Swynwick. Although Elizabeth had never been here before, as a hotel employee, she knew its reputation.Money alone couldn't buy admission to such a high-end club. Those members were highly privileged.It was not strange for such a big shot like Ronald to appear in this place.'But why did he ask me to come here?' thought Elizabeth.Filled with doubts, she got out of the car and headed for the lobby.When she was at the door, she was stopped by security guards."Sorry, ma'am. This is a private club, so only VIP members can enter."After Elizabeth heard this, she realized that she was still wearing the uniform of the hotel. It would be difficult to enter if she just dressed like this.Just as she was thinking about how to deal with the two security guards, she saw Oliver walking out from inside.'I invited her over.
"Stop..." She cried out in fear. While she was struggling, more than half of the collar of her shirt had been torn off by his other hand. Her clothes were instantly torn to shreds, causing her to feel both embarrassed and scared.Yet it seemed that he couldn't hear her voice.He only stopped when he was finally exhausted.Elizabeth didn't know how long the entire process had lasted. When he finally let her go and turned around to sleep soundly, she only felt as if she had been crushed by a heavy machine, and the pain was unbearable to endure.Tears had dried on her face, forming tear stains. After the panic, she turned her head to glance at the sleeping man beside her. Under the dim light, Ronald scarcely looked as indifferent as usual, and his facial features had become much gentler.Yet even so, she was afraid of him.After getting up and putting on the clothes that he had ripped off, she resisted the discomfort and stumbled out of the room.When Oliver brought the doctor back to th
After Elizabeth left, she did not return to the hotel but went straight back to the single apartment she rented.The first thing she did after entering the door was put in a large tub of warm water and soak herself in it. She tried to use the tub of water to ease the pain in her body.Closing her eyes, she could think of nothing but Ronald.She clearly remembered their first time, second time, third time ... until this time tonight, as though she were watching a movie.Although she didn't understand why he would be so crazy tonight, it was obvious that he had lost all sense of reason.'Was it because he was drunk?' Elizabeth wondered.'No, it couldn't be,' Elizabeth soon rejected her own theory. 'If he had been really wasted, he wouldn't have been able to do such a horrible thing. Even though I was at his service back then, he was still concerned about how I felt and tried his best to be gentle. Yet tonight... he was a total beast, wishing for nothing more than to eat me alive. That w
When Alondra was pushed out of the operation room, the old lady and her son rushed over and asked the doctor, "Where is the child? How about it? Is it a boy or a girl?""Sorry, we did our best. The child was not saved, and we saved the adult." The doctor looked at them with regret."What?" How could this be? Didn't I tell you to protect my grandson? What's the matter with you doctors? I will sue you; I will sue you." When Mrs. Baxter heard that her grandson was not saved, she immediately became anxious.

She was still unconscious, but there were tears clearly flowing down from her eyes.She extended her hand and held Alondra's cold hand tightly: "Alondra, everything is alright n
This time Ryan did not let Elizabeth down.When he saw Elizabeth, his expression was clearly surprised, "Ms. Hubbard, why are you here?""Yes, I also want to ask that why I was the one who brought her to the hospital. Where are your family members? It's a stupid thing to leave a pregnant woman at home." Elizabeth glared at Ryan Baxter and said unhappily.Ryan usually flaunted his strength in front of Alondra and showed off his temper. However, in front of Elizabeth, he did not dare reveal his true nature.Firstly, it was because Elizabeth was good-looking, and generally speaking, people would have enough tolerance for good-looking people. Wasn't there a sayingthat'You're good-looking and you're right about everything you said'.The second reason was because Elizabeth was generous with her money, and her entire body was filled with famous tags.Although Ryan wasn't too clear on her background, he knew that her identity was either
Blossom Community.Alondra held her stomach to do the chores at home. After finished all the housework, it was already half past eleven in the morning.Pulling her heavy body along, just as she was about to go into the kitchen to prepare lunch, her mother-in-law, who had just woken up, started swearing in the room. "Do you want to starve us to death? What time is it? You are still not going to cook. I don't know why Ryan married you."Alondra listened to her mother-in-law's scolding, but didn't want to pay any attention to her.Like this, she had to hear it so many times a day that she was already numb to it.She knew that in this family, it would be wrong no matter what she did or how she did.Once, she also complained to the husband that she didn't understand why the mother-in-law loved to scold her so much.The explanation Ryan Baxter gave her was that his mother was old and had high blood pressure, and her body wasn't well. When s
Oliver reported the situation. After he finished speaking, he was also angry in his heart.After hearing everything he said, Ronald finally understood why Elizabeth was so sad, and understood why her life was praised by others.If these words came from Alondra's mouth at this time, it would not be a surprise.If she married into such a family, how could she not be envious of the current Elizabeth who had nothing to worry about?"CEO, you asked me to investigate the matter of Alondra in the middle of the night. You want to meddle in this?" Oliver had always understood Ronald, and knew that he was definitely not someone who would meddle in other people's business.He would never care about something that did not concern him."It's not that I have to meddle in it, and it's that someone is feeling sad and troubled over this matter.""Elizabeth has always been a kind-hearted person, and now that someone has met with such misfortune and tha
She didn't know how long this embrace continued for, and then she reluctantly raised her head from his embrace and said softly, "I met Alondra today, and I saw that she's not happy these days."As if talking to herself, she murmured, "She marries a man, but that man treats badly to her. I want to help her get out of that family, but I find I don't know what to do.""Alondra used to be such a lively and cute girl, but you don't know what she looks like now. If she didn't walk in front of me today, I wouldn't even recognize her.""I told her I wanted to help her, but she didn't need it. Is she angry with me, and that's why she rejected me?"Elizabeth Hubbard endlessly told him about the situation when she met Alondra during the day.After Ronald heard her words, he was silently for a moment, and then asked, "You think you can help her?""I don't know. I just want to help her." she replied."How naive you are." These words came out of hi
Alondra was brought out of the Baxter's by Elizabeth.As soon as they went downstairs, they got in the car."Ms. Hubbard, where are we going now?" The driver asked."Whatever, as long as we leave this place." After Elizabeth finished speaking, she turned her gaze towards Alondra who was by her side with her head bowed."Alondra, aren't you going to tell me something?" she asked.In her heart, she was actually very angry. She did not understand why Alondra had become so weak.This was not the lively and cute girl that she knew at all.Alondra raised her head, her eyes were red and tearful, "What do you want me to say? This is my life. I have no choice.""What do you mean you have no choice? Can your parents accept what they've done to you?" Elizabeth did not believe it."So what if they don't accept? They acknowledged their son-in-law, and the child in my belly is about to give birth. Could it be that I divorce him now an
There were barely any people in the community, so the car stopped in front of an old building under Alondra's guidance.After getting out of the car, the driver took the shopping bag from the trunk. Elizabeth asked, "Alondra, which floor do you live in? We'll send you up.""No... No, thanks. I live in the fifth floor, and there are no elevators. You guys rarely climb the stairs." Alondra seemed to not want them to go up at all, and hurriedly waved her hands.But the more she was like this, the more Elizabeth was worried. She clearly remembered that Alondra's husband said on the phone that if she was unable to get home within ten minutes, he would teach her a lesson.Ten minutes had already passed. She was worried that that man would really do something that would be bad for Alondra.If she followed Alondra in, at least he would give more face to Alondra since there were guests at home, so it wouldn't make things difficult for Alondra."I'm a
"Mommy won't be going with you. Mommy made an appointment with an old friend today. Have fun with daddy." Elizabeth said."Who?" Ronald suddenly asked at this time."Huh?" Elizabeth was startled, then reacted, "Oh, it's Alondra. It's been a few years since I have contacted with her. As I'm back now, I want to meet her.""Address. I'll let the driver to send you there." Ronald said."No, thanks. I... can go by myself.""I am not for you, but for the child in your belly." Ronald explained deliberately."..." Elizabeth's face showed some embarrassment. It seemed like she was thinking too much, "It's on Glassville Avenue.""I told the driver to wait for you downstairs." After saying this, Ronald walked out.Elizabeth sent them off with her gaze. Looking at the time, it was already 8:30 AM.She went back to her room, changed her clothes, and went downstairs.Sure enough, the driver was waiting for her downstairs. She g
Upon hearing this, Elizabeth's face was immediately filled with embarrassment, "Jagger, you're the elder brother. You can't scare a little baby like this.""But the baby is bad. He's causing trouble." Jagger hurriedly tried to defend."Little fool, it was the same when you were in mommy's belly." Elizabeth said with amusement."Really?" Jagger shook his cute head, "Then can I go into mommy's belly again? I'm going to take care of the baby and make him be good and not make trouble.""...""Jagger, because the little baby is small, little baby is in mommy's belly. You have grown up and you are elder brother now. You can't go into mommy's belly anymore, okay?" Kiley hugged him tightly in her arms, and said.Monica then helped support Elizabeth get up from the sofa, "Ms. Hubbard, let's go to the garden to get a breath of fresh air."Elizabeth nodded. Although she was awake, her mind was still a little dizzy.When Ronald arrived, El
