Renee muttered under her breath, "You're doing it now."Feeling wronged, Julian started stammering, "I-You-You're bad at reading people!"How could Renee regard the most violent Valerie as the kindest? She had treated Kieran, the most hot-tempered Kingsley, as a wise and friendly uncle. She was even
After buying lunch, Julian made three trips to bring the food to the table. When they were done eating, they left the cafeteria together. Renee happened to be free in the earlier half of the afternoon, but the weather was too hot at that time. So, Julian handed her the car keys and told her, "If yo
When she found the nurse's station, she jogged over and asked a nurse, "Hello! Is there a new patient today named Amanda Dawson? Which room is she staying in?"The nurse glanced at the computer and replied, "Oh, the coma patient? She's in Room 32.""A coma?" Morgan was taken aback. All Bennett had t
By the time Bennett arrived, Amanda's report wasn't out yet.His grandparents were at the hospital too. Amanda complained to her husband, "Why did you tell Mom and Dad about me in the hospital? It's just a minor ailment. You didn't have to make them worry."Bennett's grandmother hurriedly said, "Ama
Valerie nodded, but she couldn't resist reminding her husband. "I'm afraid you might forget. This is the best opportunity for you to capture Saul. It will be even harder to catch him if we miss this chance and let him go into hiding again. He will continue to remain a threat."Kieran said, "Don't wo
Bennett also consoled his mother. "Mom, everyone goes through some minor illnesses and difficulties in life. Once you get through them, everything will be fine. You have to stay strong."Amanda wiped away her tears and addressed her son, "Bennett, Morgan has been staying in the hospital for several
Victor said, "You're so lame."Valerie retorted, "Just shut your mouth. My son will definitely take after his father. He'll be tall, handsome, and smart. Most importantly, he'll be good to me." Kieran's devoted fangirl looked at him with eyes full of affection.Kieran sat on the couch and stared at
Kieran answered, "She's probably at school."Valerie looked at the chat history with her friend on her phone. Morgan would only reply at midnight. Sometimes, she would take a very long time to reply to a message."If Julian comes without Morgan later after school, something must be wrong. Darling, I
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
