"What? You seem to care about me?" Ronald's face didn't have much expression, and his tone was also light.
Hearing him say this, Shirley retracted the smile on her face and said somewhat guiltily, "Of course. If that Ms. Hubbard is really your lover, then the person you ought to marry is her. I cannot let you sacrifice your feelings for no reason in order to help me."
As she spoke, she was filled with joy again. "Fortunately, she's just your housekeeper."
"Silly girl." Ronald smiled bitterly.
"Promise me, if you ever have someone you like in the future, you must tell me. At that time, we will go and get a divorce." Shirley said as she looked at him sincerely.
Ronald concentrated on driving, not replying to her.
"Of course, if I meet a guy I like, I'll also tell you. When the time comes, you can't let me fall in love with others!" Shirley calculated in her heart.
"Alright." Ronald finally answered.
Alondra was still completely d
Ronald raised his head and glanced at the black corridor in front of him.This type of old apartment was cheap and didn't have an elevator. They had to walk."Lead the way." Ronald said coldly.Elizabeth felt that she was a little out of breath climbing up, but on the other hand, she saw Ronald carrying a heavy load on his back did not change his expression at all.He was so healthy that it made people jealous and envious!Elizabeth thought angrily as she took out her key to open the door.Ronald wanted to help Alondra into the house, but Elizabeth stopped him. "Mr. Marquez, thank you. We can't serve Mr. Marquez anything. Good bye."After saying that, Elizabeth without even looking at Ronald's face, directly dragged Alondra into the house, and slammed the door shut.Destroy the bridge after crossing the river?This heartless little woman. Ronald smiled helplessly.Looking around, he frowned.Such a poor env
"..." She wanted nothing to do with him except work."It's an employee benefit."The meaning behind his words was that this wasn't a special favor.Seeing her lower her head and remain silent, he raised his eyebrows and he asked, "Or do you want to stay here?"Live here?No!Elizabeth instantly frowned, and tightened her grip on the key. "No, the apartment is fine."If she were to really live here, facing him day and night, it would instead be weird if she didn't go insane."Very well. The address is on the envelope. You have a day off today. Pack up your apartment and move your things in. At eight o'clock tomorrow morning, I hope, breakfast will be ready by the time I go downstairs." After Ronald finished speaking, without even looking at her, he turned and went upstairs.Elizabeth looked at the address on the envelope, then looked at the key in her hand, and sighed in her heart.Not surprisingly, there was no wa
Elizabeth had never ridden on the electric car in the villa area before. Today was her first time enjoying the services.In less than four to five minutes, she was sent to Ronald's villa.The room was silent. After entering the password, she went in. It was only half past seven.Half an hour was enough to prepare breakfast.Ronald had not woken up yet, so she went straight to the kitchen, opened the fridge and started to make breakfast using the ingredients inside.Previously, when Elizabeth had been his butler in the hotel, she had a better understanding of his appetite.So for breakfast, she made egg sandwich and freshly squeezed orange juice. She also made a small pot of crab meat porridge with several dishes of cold vegetables.In fact, she knew that Ronald was picky.However, she was not a professional chef after all. So she could only prepare a few dishes.At 8 o'clock sharp in the morning, Ronald came downstairs i
When his tie was finally tied, he looked at her with a condescending gaze. "Have you learned it?"How could Elizabeth be focus? Hearing him ask that, she just stood there, not knowing how to reply."Didn't? Then let's do it again." He was patient now, and was about to untie his tie.How could Elizabeth want to go through another ordeal like that? She immediately nodded. "Yes. I learned it."Ronald looked at her insincere expression, and after a moment, he raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully, "Ms. Hubbard is indeed very smart. I'll leave the matter of putting on my tie to you from now on.""..." What did that mean?Could it be that she would have to interact this way with him every morning in the future?Kill me!Ronald changed his clothes and went out to work, but Elizabeth sat on the balcony on the second floor, watching the video while painfully learning to wear ties.She knew that this was a problem that Ronald
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

Elizabeth was in her early stages of pregnancy, so she did not have much of an appetite.However, she also knew that the more she vomited, the more she had to eat. Otherwise, how could her baby grow up without any nutrition at all? So she kept eating.After a while, the ladies seemed to have gotten a little drunk. Elizabeth was also full, so she reminded Alondra, "Alondra, I'm full. Don't drink so much.""Don't worry. I'm fine. I won't get drunk." Alondra waved, then suddenly looked towards the door and exclaimed, "Ms. Pollard?"As she shouted, everyone on the table also looked towards the door. Shirley walked in from the outside with a sweet and charming smile. "I was eating upstairs, and heard that you were gathering here. So I came over to take a look. Have I disturbed you?"The manager was the first to react. He immediately stood up. "Ms. Pollard, it is our honor for you to visit us. Please take a seat."Shirley waved. "No, thank you. I'
"Ms. Pollard is a pitiful person. Even though she is the only daughter of the Mr. Pollard, she can't inherit everything from him because she isn't a boy. In order to protect her father's fortune, Ms. Pollard has to get married. And the only person in this world that Mr. Pollard can trust is you, CEO. Moreover, there is still the marriage contract between the two of you. It's reasonable. Others cannot have any chance to criticize you.""When Mr. Pollard passes away, you will succeed in taking over the Pollard's group. And after Ms. Pollard starts to manage the group, the marriage will be annulled."Ronald listened to Oliver's laments silently as he looked at the kitchen.Three years, Elizabeth. Can you wait?Although Elizabeth had become his housekeeper, she did not plan to live in this villa anymore.In the evening, she prepared dinner. When Ronald and Oliver entered the dining hall, she was prepared to leave.Ronald sat down and took a look
"What did you say?" Ronald frowned. He probably did not expect Elizabeth to say this.Marry her?He hadn't thought about it, but he knew that he liked her."Do you think I'm having a pipe dream?" Elizabeth smiled, "That's right. I also know that my identity is not worthy to marry you. However, Ronald, since you don't intend to marry me, why did you come to me? Or do you think that for a woman like me, as long as you spend money to maintain me, it would be enough?""I can't marry you." His voice was deep and assured.At least, not now.Elizabeth nodded. "I knew.""Why don't you stay by my side? Other than the identity of the Mrs. Marquez, I can give you everything." It was the only compromise he could make, and he was trying to keep her."But what I need is that identity." She looked at him with tears in her eyes."Elizabeth, enough!" His patience had run out and his tone had hardened."The one who should be enough
She didn't want to be the center of attention, so she reached out to help Casey up. "Stand up first, and then we'll talk."Casey immediately revealed a happy smile, "You agree?""Get up. Hurry and get up." Elizabeth lowered her head, not wanting others to see her face.Casey stood up and returned to her seat. "Elizabeth, mother knows that you are a kind-hearted child. Don't worry. This time you forgive Ainsley. In the future, I will be the big contributor to the Dyer family. They will not dare to think of kicking me out. I'll take care of that girl for you."Elizabeth didn't want to hear about the matter between her and the Dyer family, so she stood up and said, "I'll be leaving first.Without waiting for Casey to stand up, she quickly walked out of the coffee shop.On the main street, the sun was shining brightly in the sky, scorching the earth.Although the hottest summer was over, the early autumn sunshine was enough to make people
