Moses weighed his options. Nina was a feisty woman.If he gave her his card, she would simply throw it back at him and tell him to fuck off.However, his inexperience in pursuing women didn't mean that he couldn't handle social situations.After considering things for a while, he said, "I'll give her flowers, then teddy bears, jewelry, and then my card.""Yeah. You can do whatever you deem fit. Nina's much easier to pursue than Holly. You can tell everything that Nina is thinking just by looking at her face. "Holly, on the other hand, keeps her emotions hidden. I have to read her mind."Moses felt annoyed. Bryce married Holly without even dating her. What did he have to complain about? He had it easy, but he was acting like he had it tough.But he didn't tell him that. After all, Bryce was Nina's brother. He would be his brother-in-law in the future. Thus, Moses couldn't offend him.He asked, "What does Nina like to eat?"Bryce smiled. "Well, she eats everything under the sky
After the movie, Moses drove Nina home.Nina sat in the passenger seat, holding on to the unfinished bucket of popcorn, chewing quietly.Moses glanced at her adorable face, his heart thumping. "What else would you like to eat? I'll go get them for you."Nina babbled, "I feel like having roasted beef, lamb, chicken, mashed potatoes, fries, hotdogs, sandwiches, eggs, ice cream…"She listed over a hundred types of food.Moses smiled.What Bryce said was true. Nina really loved eating. It was extraordinary that she wasn't putting on any weight at all."It's not good to have such calorie-dense stuff at night. I'll take you out to have them all tomorrow."Nina was reasonable. "Alright."The car stopped outside Gabelman Manor.Moses opened the car door and walked her to the gate.When they were almost there, Nina suddenly said, "Close your eyes, Moses. Don't open them until I tell you to."Moses closed his eyes obediently.Nina stood on her toes. She wanted to kiss his eyes, but
Arthur dragged Nina home.Once they were inside the house, he flung her onto the couch.Arthur placed a hand on his hip and said to Sherry, "Look at what your daughter has done now. She's dating Moses Cott."Sherry was wearing a yellow silk nightgown. She walked down the stairs slowly, saying indifferently, "So what if she does? Is there a law saying that she can't date him?"Arthur frowned. "Are you even her mother?"Sherry smiled coldly. "I'm more responsible than you are."Arthur sneered. "Moses had leukemia when he was younger. The treatment makes the other cells die, and it affects his fertility. How could he make Nina happy with a body like that?"Sherry raised an eyebrow. "Children are good at recovering. Moses' illness was treated a long time ago. He's pretty healthy. He just might have fertility issues. "Besides, it doesn't make him any less of a man. Even if he can't have children, they can just not have kids. It hurts so badly that it's not worth it anyway."Arthur
Arthur waited, but there was no response. He grew impatient. "Why aren't you saying anything?"Yoel said in a low voice, "Who's asking for it?"Arthur chuckled. "Don't worry about that. Just go to the official DNA center to draw your blood. I'll pay for it. I'll send someone over to escort you over. You're Holly's biological father anyway. It wouldn't matter if you did it again."Yoel's warmth disappeared. He said coldly, "I'm busy."Arthur paused. "It wouldn't take up too much of your time. It'd take an hour at most. Holly has already agreed to it. Just cooperate with us, alright?"He turned to glance at Samantha. "It'll be good to dispel other people's doubts."Yoel's grip on the phone tightened. He was expressionless. "I've done it so many times before that I'm annoyed now."Arthur softened his voice. "It'll just be one last time. You won't be doing it anymore."It sounded like he was begging Yoel to do it.Arthur rarely ever begged. This was a record for him.Yoel was unr
Holly and Yoel looked alike. They shared the same mannerisms and the same demeanors. Even their hobbies and interests aligned.He was the closest person that she could ever have in this world.No one could ever replace the bond between a father and his daughter.Holly felt like Arthur was lying to her.She held up her phone and called Yoel. "Dad, let's do a paternity test when we're free."Yoel was silent.His silence was the answer that Holly needed.Arthur was right. Yoel wasn't her father.Ache and disappointment painted her entire insides black. Emotion swirled thickly in her chest like muck.She felt cold, sad, and dejected.Yoel finally said, "Holly, I love you, regardless of whether you believe it or not. Out of everyone in this world, I love you the most. You're the one that I want to protect. "After I die, I'll leave everything in my name to you. I've written my will a long time ago, and it's already been signed by officials."Holly was stunned. She teared up.Sh
Samantha and Levi were there, too. They were talking to Arthur in the courtyard.They said something that made Arthur crack a smile.Bryce held Holly's hand and walked toward them.When Samantha saw them, she whispered to Arthur, "Uncle Arthur, Holly's here. How could she have the guts to come here after fooling you so badly? She's so shameless."Arthur's smile disappeared.He turned to look at Holly, his expression steely. His gaze expressed his conflicting emotions.Bryce and Holly approached them. When they were about ten feet away, Levi smiled and said politely, "Hello, Bryce."Bryce murmured in response, nodding at him. Then, he nodded at Arthur as a form of acknowledgment.They were a family. Although they all had differing opinions of each other, they had to keep up appearances.Samantha glanced at Holly and said coyly, "When are you going to remarry Holly, Bryce? Uncle Arthur's been looking forward to it for a very long time."Her words seemed harmless on the surface,
The sky turned dark. It was time for dinner.Everyone filed into the dining room.The maids rapidly filled up the table with dish after dish.The food looked amazing.Olivia and Richard sat at the head of the table. They glanced around at the people. Olivia caught sight of Samantha, and she frowned. "Why is she here?"Samantha's expression turned sour instantly.Arthur coughed. "Have you forgotten, Mom? Samantha and Levi are engaged."Olivia chuckled coldly. "Are the women out there really so terrible that you got Levi to marry her? She has no morals or sense of etiquette. How can she be worthy of being our granddaughter-in-law?"Arthur looked uncomfortable. "I told you about it before they got engaged."Olivia looked up at him. "And did I agree to it? I probably didn't."Richard patted her hand. "Let's not talk about this anymore, dear. Let's eat before the food turns cold. Our children are hungry."Olivia put a piece of steak on Holly's plate. "Eat up, Holly."Holly smi
"What? I can't hear what you're saying. The line's really bad here. I'm going to hang up now, Grandma. Bye!"Nina hung up the call with an excuse.After that, Olivia lost her appetite. She was worried that with Moses' weak body, he wouldn't be able to make Nina happy.…The next day, Arthur knocked on Holly's door.He took out his recording pen. It said, "Here's ten billion dollars. Take the money and divorce Bryce at once."Then, a woman's voice sounded. "I'll go to the city hall tomorrow to submit the divorce papers…"Holly could tell that that was her voice.That was what Arthur had said to her last summer.She hadn't expected him to record their conversation. What a sneaky bastard.Arthur stiffened his back, his expression serious. "You took my ten billion dollars, Holly. You divorced Bryce to keep your end of the deal. You cannot go back on your word. "You will either leave him or give me the money back. Otherwise, I'll sue you. Ten billion dollars is enough for you to
