Arthur suddenly felt chills in his lower body, and he forcefully got out of Sherry's grasp. "What do you mean? Explain yourself!"Naturally, Sherry wouldn't tell him about his illegitimate child still being alive. He was already doing as he pleased with Levi around. If he knew about Abelin's existence, there was no telling how arrogant he would get."Step aside and don't stand in my way!" She lifted her leg to kick him between his legs.Arthur dodged to the side and rubbed his painful stomach while complaining, "How could a woman who used to be so gentle become so crazy now? What's with all this kicking and slapping for no reason?"Sherry scoffed. "I'm showing you mercy by just hitting you. Next time, I'll treat you to some poison and kill you!"Arthur was so furious that he started laughing. "Sherry, what did I do wrong to offend you so badly? Why are you hating me this much? "It's not like I don't want to get a divorce. You can leave whenever you want, as long as you do so wit
Sherry nodded solemnly. "Yes. That's a possibility."Yannie was prepared to back out of this situation. However, she forced out a smile so as not to make herself look bad. "Modern science is great. Even if Bryce has a relapse later on, I'm sure he can be cured."Bryce looked down at her and asked, "What if I can't be cured?""Well…" She couldn't say anything, and she started fiddling with her fingers. She felt complicated as she didn't dare to take the risk. Bryce took advantage of the opportunity and said to Sherry, "You should go to the coffee shop with Ms. Blake. I don't think she wants to go with me anymore."Yannie quickly waved her hands. "I'm not going as well. I've had enough coffee here."After she left, Sherry scolded Bryce, "Mr. Gabelman, you'll be single forever if you keep this up.""Whatever. I'd rather be single.""You might be okay with that, but I can't accept it. I want grandchildren!"Bryce lifted an eyebrow. "How could you blame me for your bad taste in
Bryce sounded sure when he said, "She won't.""Are you planning to compete with Abelin?"He frowned slightly, hurt by what Sherry had said. "Madam Quinn, can you not keep bringing that up? It really spoils the mood."She sighed. "Then, do your best, and don't lose to that woman's son. I've always been superior to her. If my son loses to her son, how can I keep my head up?""Just don't get up to any tricks and be a burden to me."Sherry rolled her eyes at him and said meaningfully, "If it weren't for me, you would still be stuck in a sticky situation. You should thank me quickly instead." After saying that, she grabbed her bag and left. Bryce smiled faintly as he watched her leave. No one knew him better than his own mother.After leaving the golf club, Bryce drove to Winds Residences. Shortly after he pulled up at the entrance, Holly came out. She walked to him and bent down to roll up his pants. "Which leg is hurting?" He looked down at her and said nothing.Then, she t
Holly wasn't in the mood at all, and it was extremely awkward for her to force out those romantic words. Her ears turned bright red from the awkwardness. She never thought she would say such intimate words under such circumstances.However, Bryce didn't care at all. He enjoyed hearing her say that. It felt like flowers had bloomed and spring had arrived for him. He probably cherished the moment more since it was a rare occurrence. If she were saying it every day and clinging to him nonstop, he would've been sick of it by now.That was how ironic a person could be."I've made you some apple pie and tiramisu. Come in and have some." Holly's ears were still red as she turned to enter the house. Bryce followed her closely, and he smiled brightly like a star.As the two walked side by side, he grabbed her hand and rubbed her soft palm. Holly felt ticklish and pulled her hand back while laughing.Bryce turned his head to look at her. The sun was shining on her face, and her dark e
So, Bryce endured it whenever Holly called for Abelin in her dreams. Now, Abelin had reunited with her, and he had his eyes on her as well. She couldn't bring herself to cut ties with him because he had saved her life before. Bryce was also willing to bear with it because it was too hard to be apart from her.After he finished the tiramisu and apple pie, he looked at his watch and gently said to her, "I don't have anything planned this afternoon. Where would you like to go? I'll go with you."Holly thought about it and said, "Shall we go to the amusement park?"Bryce was stunned for a moment. "The amusement part? It's for kids. Are you sure you want to go there?""I didn't have the chance to go there a lot. Back when I was young, I would always study. Other than that, I would be busy restoring paintings, replicating paintings, and going to the museum with Grandpa. I never really experienced what other kids had done before."Bryce ruffled her hair and teased, "I never knew our de
When they arrived at the Kiddy Train, Holly got on the ride with a group of kids. Since she was slim, she wasn't standing out that much.The fall sun was shining on her body, and her blonde hair fell loosely on her shoulders. Her slim back looked beautiful. She was so thin that it felt like the sunlight could shine through her.Bryce stood by the entrance and quietly waited for her. What had happened earlier made him slightly upset. However, the way she grabbed his arm dissipated the feeling quickly. She always had a way to affect his emotions.He accompanied her at the amusement park for the whole afternoon as she had fun. When the place was closing, she was still hesitant to leave. She was hinting at Bryce that she wanted to come again next time.Bryce smiled, thinking that she was sometimes as mature as an elderly woman. Then, there were times when she would act like an eight-year-old girl. Holly was truly an innocent yet complicated woman.That night, Bryce stayed at Winds Res
Priscilla teared up and cried until her face was covered in tears. Then, she said while sniffling, "It's great that you're alive. We've been living with great guilt for the past decade. It was heartbreaking to see a good boy die while saving Holls."Abelin wiped her tears with a handkerchief. "Please don't cry, Aunt Priscilla. I'm here now, aren't I? Holly suffered because of me, so saving her was the right thing to do.""About your injuries…"Priscilla was about to lift up his coat and check the scars on his body. However, Abelin quickly stopped her and said with a smile, "I'm fine, Aunt Priscilla. You don't have to worry."She opened her bag and took out a card from her wallet. Then, she shoved it in his hands. "This is a little something from me. The password is Holls' birthdate—618618. Since you saved her life and suffered so much, you should take this money and enjoy yourself."Holly gave Priscilla the card while they were on their way there. She knew that Abelin definitely
Holly rubbed her eyebrows and said, "Not yet. I'm waiting for Arthur to yield first."After they got out of the airport, a black limited edition limousine stopped at the entrance and waited for them. When the window rolled down, they saw a cold and dashing face. Under the sunlight, the man's facial features were well-defined, and it would be hard to hide his radiance.Holly was stunned at first. Then, she was happily surprised. She picked up her pace and approached the car. "Didn't you say you had an important meeting? Why are you here?"Bryce opened the door. "The meeting is over, and I'm heading to a subsidiary company to check it out. Since I was passing by, I decided to pick you up. Get in."She bent over to get into the vehicle. Just as Priscilla was about to open the door on the other side, Bryce frowned subtly. "Mom, you should take your car. I'm not used to having outsiders in the same car as me."She was stunned when she heard him call her an outsider, feeling like sh
