Kieran stood still for two whole minutes. Then, he sighed softly and went upstairs with an impassive expression on his face.When Valarie saw him, she was surprised. "I thought you were going to go on a date. Why are you back so soon?"Kieran shot her a mean look and walked into the walk-in closet.
After Helen successfully planted that idea in Amelia's head, she wiped her tears away. Then, she left the gazebo with an aggrieved look. She instantly changed her demeanor once she was out of Amelia's sight. Her teary eyes were now filled with cunningness. She even balled her hands into fists.She
At the moment, Martin's face had turned ashen as he sat next to Amelia.While Valerie's insults were really unpleasant, he wasn't deaf. He knew well enough that Amelia had instigated the whole argument. "Sit down. Why are you bickering with your own family? You're her sister-in-law, so act like it.
Kieran spun on his heel. "Why are you following me?""Let me move out, Kieran. If I stay here any longer, I'll probably land your entire family in the hospital from anger."She looked at Kieran pleadingly. "What do you think?"She genuinely didn't want to stay here any longer. She didn't like anyone
"I'll get on it right away," Mr. Bronswell said.Night fell eventually. None of the Kingsleys had dinner that night.Valerie's stomach rumbled with hunger, but she knew that if she went downstairs to find food, it would likely lead to an argument. As such, she decided to wait it out and fill her sto
The lights in the bedroom were turned off. Only the bedside lamp next to the bed was left on. Valerie had been silently observing him for an hour on the couch. Kieran looked up to meet her clear gaze."Am I that good-looking?" he asked.Valerie shook her head. "Nope." "Then what are you staring at
After Valerie heard the door close behind Kieran, she rolled off the couch and hurried to the bathroom.She grabbed a glass and started filling it with water from the tap. Then, she took large gulps. She hoped that she could fill her stomach up by drinking lots of water.By the time Kieran returned,
Kieran suddenly realized that there was no trace of Valerie's belongings in the walk-in closet either.In fact, it seemed like Valerie hadn't left anything of hers anywhere in the mansion.Kieran shifted his gaze toward the couple of suitcases that were tucked away in the corner and wondered if all
Valerie and Morgan held sparklers in their hands and exclaimed, "We're lighting up the night just for you."Julian was left stunned and without words.Inside Kingsley Estate, a warm and cozy feeling enveloped everything. It felt like a pleasant spring day. The sound of the television softly humming
Morgan blinked and asked, "Wait, are you only marrying me to, you know, sleep with me?""Yep." Bennett nodded.Morgan blushed without meaning to. She didn't think Bennett would be so straightforward."Just because you want to sleep with me doesn't mean it'll happen. Dream on," Morgan snorted. Lately
After Kieran had some water, he refilled the glass and handed it to Valerie. Valerie, lazy to move, drank from the glass in his hand.Oliver, now fully-fed, turned around and stared curiously at his mom who was drinking water. Everything in the world was new to him.Kieran let Valerie deal with Oliv
Oliver rested on Kieran's chest. With his foot on Kieran's shirt, he placed his hand on Kieran's strong shoulder. Tired from all the crying and wailing, he quietly enjoyed a sunbath with a squint, oblivious to the grudge that Julian held against him.Julian was forced to join the meeting due to Kier
Julian pointed out, "But Oliver keeps crying and won't take any milk."Kieran stared at the scowl on Oliver's face and felt bad for the little one as the father. After a pause, he resumed bottle-feeding Oliver slowly. Then, he said to Julian, "You should go back to work."By this time, Oliver was t
After Valerie brought it up, Amelia realized that Morgan was nowhere to be seen all day. Valerie tapped into Morgan's Facebook profile and showed it to Amelia. "Look, it's Bennett's off day today. See, there's a guy's hand in Morgan's photo she just posted."Valerie did not even need to guess the id
That conversation reminded Kieran of Valerie, who was in her prime but was cooped up at home all day. He didn't recall seeing Valerie go clothes shopping.When he got back home, he opened the closet to check for Valerie's clothes. When he turned around, he found Valerie cleaning the baby's backside.
Kieran asked, "A president is human too, no? How could I miss my wife and my son's health check-ups just because I'm too busy? Did I hire my assistant hired solely to take care of my family affairs? The nanny is not omnipresent either, you know.""Well, the company presidents I know are always busy
No one thought that William would agree to it so quickly.Even Valerie was wrong.She looked at her husband and awaited an explanation.Kieran looked at her and smiled, then put his hand over hers.Valerie knew from this gesture that he had predicted this from the start. She was still too naive to p
