Kieran chatted with Bennett for a while before hanging up and returning the phone to his wife.Curious, Valerie leaned forward. "Darling, are you still going to go pick Morgan up?"Filled with anger, Kieran replied, "No, I'm not."Valerie pouted and suppressed a smile.Since her husband wasn't going
Kieran went over and picked up his son. "Daddy is going to the office. Don't nap too much, or you'll be an owl tonight."The little one had already started to rebel. He turned his face into Kieran's embrace and began yawning.Kieran gently stroked his son's cheek and said affectionately, "You can sl
Morgan was kneeling on the bed, and the belt of her robe was loosely tied. When she impulsively lunged forward, she overextended. Already slightly exposed from the loose robe, her chest was now fully exposed.Standing opposite her, Bennett looked down at the person rushing toward him. He couldn't he
"Okay, I'll be right back."Morgan started sobbing under the covers again.Bennett glanced at the girl on the bed and lied, "Morgan fell asleep. I'll go back alone."Upon hearing her name, the girl immediately stopped crying again and continued to eavesdrop. She could easily control her tears.The m
Amanda turned her head and glared at Deirdre with unwavering eyes. It was as if she was a lie detector. Deirdre knew that if she showed any signs of weakness, Amanda would catch her in her lies.Hence, she doubled down. "Aunt Amanda, Grandma, everything I said is true. She even told me that she's se
The girl on the bed abruptly opened her eyes.Morgan blinked and considered closing her eyes again, but she recalled what Bennett had said. She rolled over, lay flat on the bed, and stared at Bennett, who had come to her room in the middle of the night."Who?"Bennett's gaze was intense. A rush of f
Bennett continued probing. "What about the photo you took with my coat after I took a shower? You even said you're going to sleep with me.""That was also fake. I hung the coat on the rack and pretended it was you. It was just a corner of your coat."Bennett knew it was a misunderstanding. He said,
Morgan realized she had played right into Bennett's hands."Fine. I'm sure you're leaving for work tomorrow." Morgan got up from Bennett's embrace. She then went to bed, lifted the covers, and crawled underneath to sleep. "I won't marry you. You can keep dreaming, Bennett! I hope you stay single for
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
