After the police left, Valerie patted Julian's shoulder. "Jules, drive me to the media company. I'll take you to earn some extra money."In the afternoon, news of the Morton Corporation's CEO getting arrested spread like wildfire. Once the news broke, the stock price of the Morton Corporation began
"Mr. Morton detained Jules. He might even be …" Morgan told her parents the full story.After listening to the story, Amanda didn't blame her. She said, "Hurry up and eat. The food's getting cold." She piled food onto her daughter's plate. Morgan picked up her fork and ate nervously....Meanwhile,
"Yes. That's her."The man on the sofa laughed. "I can't believe a young girl like her could drive you nuts. Now, I'm curious."Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Mr. Morton hesitated. He didn't know how to tell his boss how bold Valerie was.Mr. Morton wasn't there to talk about Valerie. He wanted his b
Valerie asked, "Do you mean Helen?""Helen is just a small fry. You have another love rival. A bigger one," William lied.Valerie firmly believed in her husband's love for her. "It's impossible. My husband loves me the most. I don't have any rivals."William continued, "Before you dated Kieran, he n
Everybody there knew it was Kieran's first public appearance with his wife. Their attention was fixed on the couple.No doubt, Valerie stole the spotlight.If it wasn't for Kieran standing beside her, many men would have approached her. However, she was Kieran's wife. Nobody dared to hit on her."Le
Helen had been glaring at Valerie since she arrived.Others might not know, but she knew that Valerie was the one who exposed the news of her father getting arrested.She couldn't bear the humiliation, yet today, Valerie wanted to pick a fight with them again.A malicious idea appeared in her mind.
William responded, "No, it's very safe. My daughter-in-law only hits other people. She would never hit us."Amelia still felt remorseful. Valerie approached and comforted her. "Amelia, it's my fault for not listening to you and going to the restroom. I sneaked into the banquet hall while you weren't
Kieran frowned and reminded her softly, "Don't embarrass Amelia."Valerie suddenly realized that this was the most embarrassing moment for her sister-in-law. As someone who valued dignity so much, Amelia wouldn't want anybody to witness her in such a miserable state.Finally, Valerie stopped struggl
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
