"Do you just chicken out like that?""Otherwise, can we get divorced?" William spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world."Isn't it stated by the law that couples can divorce if they have been separated due to emotional incompatibility for at least two years? You and she have been married for six years…" Matt raised his eyebrows and looked at him calmly.Separated for two years...William picked up his glass again and pictured the image of a woman's legs wrapped around his waist, the pleasure of his manhood tightly wrapped, if he had to resist touching that body...he couldn't do it!"Uh?" Matt understood, but intentionally asked him."Uh, nothing. How about the recruitment plan this time?" William kicked his friend's leg and asked.Normally, Matt didn't need to worry about such things, but for some reason, he had to handle it personally this time."It's the same old thing. I hate this kind of favoritism and face-saving thing. I just received a call from my mom's former c
If he had any sanity left before, it was completely obliterated when he opened the door and saw her deer-like eyes staring at him.Theresa finally managed to free her hands and lifted the man's head, buried between her breasts. Her voice was hoarse as she spoke, "No, not tonight! I'm on my p..."The man froze instantly, with William's hand, which was nestled at the root of her thigh, feeling something akin to a "pad.""Why didn't you say so earlier?" he exclaimed angrily."You didn't ask me. How could I have had the chance?" Theresa leaned against the wall, looking very innocent as she spoke. Her bathrobe had already been untied halfway.William clenched his thin lips tightly, feeling the pain of an abrupt stop. Without another word, he turned and strode toward the bathroom in the inner room, his footsteps loud and irritable. With a loud bang, he closed the sliding door behind him.Theresa was about to say something provocative like, "So, Mr. Russell wasn't satisfying enough outside?"
When Joe spoke, the whole family burst into laughter, even the old lady laughed, "You little devil!"Even Robert Russell, who was usually serious and seldom laughed, couldn't help but laugh along.In such an atmosphere, William's expression also relaxed a lot. He turned his head and saw the black and bright eyes of the child staring at him. To be precise, he was staring at the thing in his hand."This, it's for you." He handed the paper bag over, his attitude not particularly friendly.The little guy held it with both hands and took out the contents very carefully, asking incredulously, "Dad, is this my birthday gift from you? Really? Really?""...... Hmm." William nodded, with a hint of unease on his face.Theresa already knew, so she wasn't surprised at all, but she looked surprised when the little guy took out the gun model inside.William just sat there like a rock, his expression unchanged."What a junk toy. Do you want your son to carry a gun every day?" The old lady was the fir
Chris seemed to pause for a moment, then smiled at her and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Norman."Theresa returned the smile."Careful!" Chris shouted as he saw her slip, and before she knew it, she was in his arms.After Chris gentlemanly helped her regain her footing, he was about to let go, but the woman in his arms seemed to be looking in a certain direction, looking a bit flustered.Theresa felt a little embarrassed as she looked down at her high heels and gave a grateful smile. "Thank you!""What's wrong?" he asked, confused."Nothing," Theresa hurriedly pulled away from him and shook her head.On the opposite side of the street, a man who had just come out of a club and got into a business car behind, had a very unpleasant look on his face....The office was quiet, with only the humidifier emitting a "puffing" sound.When the knocking sound was heard, William looked up. "Come in!"The assistant walked in from outside and stood in front of the desk after calling him "sir"."Have you f
"Yeah, it's appendicitis. After the surgery, everything will be fine, don't worry," the experienced doctor smiled and took the signed consent form before turning to instruct the nurse to prepare for the operation.The hospital was very efficient, and within five minutes, the operating room was ready. Theresa, now dressed in a hospital gown, lay on the bed, and they all entered the operating room.William followed along, even though the doctor had confirmed that it was appendicitis and that everything would be fine after the surgery, his tense mood did not relax."Wait a minute."The door to the operating room had already opened, but the person on the bed suddenly spoke.William saw this and furrowed his eyebrows even tighter."William..."Seeing her struggling to raise her hand in his direction, he quickly stepped forward, his voice deep, "What's wrong?"Theresa felt sad in her heart but tried to smile through the pain, "You can go back. I can handle the rest on my own.""Okay. " Will
"But I heard that William sent you here and he's been by your side all along?"At the words, Theresa slowly nodded her head, "Hmm..."Even now, she occasionally remembers the scene from back then, him holding her as they ran all the way, even on the way to the hospital, he had one hand on the steering wheel and the other tightly holding hers, it was dreamlike and unreal.Seeing the smile creeping up on Theresa's face, Elizabeth opened her mouth to say something but swallowed her words."Speak up, keeping things to yourself isn't your style." Theresa, being sensitive, looked at her friend.Elizabeth hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's nothing really, just that I saw your husband with another woman last night, it was probably just a fling…""Hmm." Theresa's expression remained unchanged after hearing this.But as she was walking back to the hospital room, she accidentally tripped over the IV stand, hitting her big toe on the wheel of the stand, causing her to frown in pain and i
The sunset is like a painting, it's the most beautiful moment of the day.In a café near the Twin Towers, the piano music is just right, low and gentle, not disturbing the customers discussing serious matters.Theresa is familiar with this business café, she often brings clients here to talk, the environment and service are both commercial.However...Theresa pushes her coffee cup away, picks up the glass of water next to her, and gets straight to the point, "Miss Johnson, I came to talk to you about me and William's marriage."Margaret, across from her, wears a plain dress, looking nervous with her long eyelashes trembling, you can even hear her anxious breathing."Miss Norman, I'm sorry..." Margaret listens and turns pale, trying to steady her voice, "I believe Bill has already made it clear to you, he, he won't marry you..."--I'm sorry, Theresa, I can't marry you.Yes, three hours ago, William said the same thing to her over the phone, each word decisive and resolute, just like hi
She could even imagine her son, who found it hard to come home to his father, excited and embarrassed to show himself, but drenched with a cold bucket of water that left him shivering to the bone."Joe, haven't I told you before? Dad doesn't hate you; he loves you very much! It's just that he's been working too hard. You know how you get in a bad mood when you're tired, right?""Really?" the little boy, easily persuaded due to his young age, asked.As she held her son in her arms, Teresa tried hard to keep a smile on her face as she replied, "Really."This wasn't the first time she had lied like this, but every time she did, it still felt difficult." I bought your favorite Swiss roll, and how about we fry some pork chops for dinner tonight? We can also make some shrimp and egg pancakes." Teresa diverted her son's attention with delicious food.As expected, the little boy immediately stopped crying and cheered, "Yay!"As she watched her son run and jump into the kitchen, Teresa stoppe

The next day."Sorry, Mr. Carter is busy with an important client and doesn't have time to see you. If you have any business, please make an appointment." The male secretary's attitude was serious and somewhat unfriendly."It's okay, I can wait until Mr. Carter is finished!" Theresa's face was full of smiles and a pleasing tone.Seeing this, the secretary frowned and wanted to continue to refuse, but in the end, he turned around and walked away directly."Ma'am, you are a high-level and you have a reputation in the business world. Do you really need to grovel like this to him?" Theresa's assistant, who was following her, couldn't bear it and grumbled unhappily."You fool, everyone is scrambling for Carter's projects. If we don't act fast, someone else will take them away. " Theresa glanced at her assistant and couldn't help but feel frustrated.The Carter family had been operating large shopping centers since their grandfather's time, and they were almost everywhere in cities on the w
"Well, I got it." Theresa nodded seriously after listening to Karen's words.There was not much change in her expression.But, when karen said, "I'm pregnant, it's Mr. Russell's!", she was obviously surprised!At the words, Theresa's eyes instantly turned cold, and she slammed on the brakes.The car came to a sudden stop, and the people inside leaned forward due to the inertia. Theresa was prepared early and sat firmly in her seat, but Karen was caught off guard and hit her forehead on the car window."Sorry, I didn't see the signal light." Theresa apologized with a guilty smile."It's okay." Karen rubbed her swollen forehead, and naturally saw the red signal light above, but there was still a distance of at least 200 meters from the cars waiting in front.A triumphant smile crept up on Karen's lips. She was one of rising actresses in Hollywood, and many of them have an ambiguous relationship with the rich.For Karen, instead of enduring those greasy middle-aged men, it was better to
"I was at the construction site, the machine was too loud and I didn't hear my phone ringing. They must have tried to call me, right? I left your number with the school before, don't worry, they won't call for no reason. Did it cause any trouble for you?" She had calmed down by now and spoke to him."No," William replied, feeling stung by her words.The image of the medical room in the kindergarten still played in his mind, and the sight of the child had indeed startled him. The woman's panicked appearance was also something he had never seen before.If she had leaned on him helplessly at this moment, he would have softened temporarily. But she handled her son's illness so calmly, emitting the same queenly aura as she did at work, that she didn't need anyone's help, especially not his.After a few seconds of silence, he finally asked, "Joe... he has asthma?""Yeah, congenital asthma," Theresa's eyes dimmed...."Sweetie, you have to be more careful from now on, okay?""Mm-hmm, I know,
