"Are you talking about the fact that Yanne was not pregnant?" Ivy thought for a while before saying, "I'm not sure too back then. What if I misjudged? I can't simply say anything.""All you needed to do was to remind me. I'll buy another test kit for her to clear this up. Was it that hard?"Ivy was speechless."Miss Landers, you clearly did not want to tell me. You wanted me to be continuing to be a fool, being lied to by everyone," Liam said, pretending to be angry."No." Hearing the guilt in her tone, Liam continued pretending to be angry. "You dare say no? You clearly don't care about my feelings. You don't care whether I live or die. You only keep pushing me to Yanne. I'm truly disappointed and sad."Liam gritted his teeth. "I never thought that the woman I have loved for so many years would treat me this way.""Don't say that. I really did not do it on purpose. I just thought of how your parents and your brother still needed Miss Young's help. If I…""You don't have to say
Liam finally laughed, "V, even if I kill myself, I won't kill you."He put it so sincerely it made Ivy feel even more uneasy. What if he really found out about that huge secret, what was she going to do?She was worried just thinking about it.Liam realized that she was not talking. He was worried that he had played the joke too far. He softened his tone, "Enough, I'm not going to scare you anymore. How are you? Have you eaten? Did you miss me?""Yes, I've eaten, yet I've missed you," Ivy said, "what about you? How did you know about Yanne's secret?""She told us.""She told you? How is that possible?""Hmm, maybe because she started having a guilty conscience about not being pregnant. Maybe she thought it true that she did not need to waste her effort on a scumbag like me, so she told us everything."Right, by the way, she also said that I kept calling your name out loud the other night. I didn't even touch her." At the mention of that, Liam could not help but be smug. "Did yo
"I was." Siena nodded. "If you don't believe me, ask Mommy.""Hmm, no need," Liam said, "I believe you because our Siena is always a great girl.""Thank you, Daddy!" Siena got out of his hug. She turned around and waved at Ivy. "Mommy, you were missing Daddy a lot, right? Come over quickly and hug him."Liam looked at Ivy, in the courtyard, and said with a smile, "Your Mommy is a little too happy. She can't move. Maybe, I'll go over and hug her instead."Then, he headed over to Ivy before reaching his arms out and hugging her in his arms. He lowered his head and planted a kiss on her lips. "V, I missed you."Ivy cleared her throat and reminded him, "There's a child around.""Siena, go in a finish your homework.""Okay, Daddy." Siena knowingly took her homework and entered the house.Liam clutched Ivy's face and measured her up. "Did you miss me?""What do you think?" Ivy looked at him and asked in return."I'd say that you would surely miss me.""Then, why do you still ask?"
"No.""But I'm exhausted.""All you need to do is lie down. I'll serve you."Ivy was speechless.Liam pulled her up from the bed and carried her into the bathroom. "Aren't you hungry? Go shower and make food." They showered together, put on clothes, and headed downstairs.Liam held her hand and said, "Are there ingredients at home? I'll do it. You just wait by the sofa and watch tv.""It's late. Just make some pasta.""Is it that late?""It's late. Siena still needs to go to school tomorrow.""Oh yes, I forgot about this."Ivy looked at him reproachfully. "It's your fault for not looking at the time.""Are you blaming me? If you weren't holding onto me so tightly, would I not look at the time?""I did not do that." Ivy glared at him once more. "Nonsense. I'm not that type of person.""Yes, you are not that type of person. I am. I was the one who didn't let you go. Are you happy?""Yes.""Thank you, Ivy. Wait a while. I'll go make food for you all." Liam kissed her on t
Ivy woke up in the afternoon the next day. She thought she had misread the time. She rubbed her eyes and looked at the time once more. It was the afternoon.How has she slept in till afternoon? What happened?Although she had fun with Liam until three or four in the morning, she would not have slept until the afternoon, right?She looked at the place beside her. Where was Liam? Where did he go to?She immediately picked up her phone and dialed his phone.Soon, Liam came over."What is it?" He came to the bed and asked gently, "Are you tired? Hungry?""You…" Ivy looked at him. "When did you get up? Where did you go?""I got up at seven. I made Siena breakfast and sent her to school. I worked a little in the morning and made myself something to eat before continuing working."He had fun with her the entire night, yet he had already done so many things, whereas she had slept for the entire day."Why didn't you wake me up?""Why should I wake you up?""Wake me up to make breakf
Ivy was speechless.She raised her hand once more and hit him on his back. "Liam, how dare you tricked me!""You just have a dirty mind.""I don't."Liam pointed at the dining table with his chin. "Go and eat a little. I have just sliced some apples. Don't starve.""I don't want to eat." Ivy hugged his waist tightly. "I want to accompany you while cooking.""But I can't cook with you hugging me.""Then, just do it slower.""What if I spoil the dish?""Even if you spoil it, I'll love it."Liam smiled. He turned around and kissed her on the lips. "You sure are getting better at sweet talking.""Do you like it?""I love it." Liam decided to just give up on what he was doing. He turned around and kissed her passionately.After another round of passion, sure enough, the dish was ruined.Liam looked at the ruined dish in the pan and sighed, "Sigh, it sure is easy to ruin things with a little seductive fairy by my side."Ivy chuckled, "I'm sorry, go and cook. I'll go and eat th
Ivy was initially not convinced, but she was afraid that her reluctance would provoke his domination, so she could only nod and admit it. "Yes, if you were to continue on this way, I really won't be able to take it, so be good and go and sleep.""Are you coming with me?""Yes." Ivy followed him to the bed.Liam hugged her. He sighed in satisfaction and said, "It's so great to have a wife. Every single second is like a celebration."Ivy chuckled and patted him on the head. "If it's so great having a wife, why didn't you have one earlier?""Sorry, I misspoke," Liam corrected himself, "it's so great to have V. Every single day spent with her is like a celebration.""Okay, go and sleep.""Why are you rushing me to sleep?""Because Siena is almost done with school in a while. I still have to go pick her up, go get groceries, and make dinner," Ivy said dotingly, "but don't worry, I'll accompany you until you sleep before going.""You don't have to go get groceries and make dinner to
Ivy cleared her throat. She ruffled Siena's head. "Don't listen to your Daddy. How could I be tired? Furthermore, taking care of you is the happiest and proudest thing I have ever done.""Really? Mommy, you really like me that much?""I do."Siena laughed happily."Let's go. We'll head home." Ivy held Siena's hand and they walked under the sycamore tree."Mommy, has Daddy gone back?""Not yet," Ivy said, "Daddy said he wants to give us a surprise.""Oh, that's great. I don't want Daddy to leave us.""Why? Do you like Daddy?""I do." Siena nodded. "Also, with Daddy here, you will be much happier. I like to see you being happy."Ivy saw Siena's face under the sun. She could not help but be moved. Siena was too understanding and caring.She suddenly thought of her own daughter. If she was still around, she would be Siena's age. She wondered whether she was as caring as Siena.At that thought, the smile on her face faded a little."Mommy, look! There are two birds!" Siena sudd
Back in the bedroom on the second floor, Liam pulled Ivy into the bathroom to take a bath together.Ivy allowed him to take off her clothes and pulled her to stand under the water.Liam helped her take a bath and asked, "How is it? Is everything okay?""It's not bad." Ivy said, "I didn't expect your parents to welcome me so warmly."Liam looked at her proudly, with the water still flowing down from his head. "Of course! You should thank the guy that has good taste. How can they dislike a girl of my choosing?"Ivy smiled and said, "Okay, previously...""Don't mention the previous things, let them pass." Liam interrupted her.Ivy was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "Okay, it's all over.""Yes. From now on, there is only happiness." Liam lowered his head and whispered in her ear, and kissed her lips……Meredith and Josiah listened in shock to Liam and Ivy's story, while watching the three children chasing and making trouble outside the floor-to-ceiling window.They were all
Ivy raised her hand and touched the top of Siena's hair. "God treated me well, and gave me back my daughter, and also gave me the child's father.""No, you're wrong." Liam smiled and said, "God treated me well and sent the child and the child's mother back to my arms.""Oh, spare me." Madam Sheldon shook her head unbearably.Madam Sheldon finally believed that Siena was her own granddaughter.She excitedly hugged Siena into her arms, and she burst into tears with joy. "Great, our Sheldon family finally has a granddaughter! Great!""Grandma, you like Siena, right?" Siena asked sweetly."Nonsense! Of course, Grandma likes Siena. Grandma has always dreamed about a little grandson or a little granddaughter." Madam Sheldon choked as she said.Liam and Ivy looked at each other and smiled.After hugging Siena excitedly for a while, Madam Sheldon released her, and looked at her again. "Now that you mentioned it, she looks a lot like Liam. Look at her nose, her ears...right? Am I righ
"You even helped me get dressed before you left!" Liam pinched her chin. "Ivy, aren't you embarrassed saying these things?""You asked me.""...""If I didn't help you get dressed, you might be so stupid that you don't even know that you slept with someone, right?""Ivy!" Liam gritted his teeth. "You stole my seed, and you dare to laugh at me for being stupid?""Isn't it stupid?" Ivy was not afraid of him. She raised an eyebrow at him deliberately. "Liam, think about it. Were you being stupid that night?"Liam was silent.Yes, he was really stupid.He was so stupid that he was too embarrassed to admit it. He did not even have the face to mention it in front of Josiah.Looking at the woman in front of him, he wanted to laugh and be mad at the same time.He did not want to say anything. He just wanted to use actions to prove how angry he was, how excited, happy, and...Countless emotions were intertwined in his body, causing him to bow his head and kiss her lips fiercely.Ivy
"Okay, I'm sorry." Ivy got up and walked around in front of him, sitting on his lap and hugging his neck with a smile. "Do I need to make up for you as well? Say sorry to you?""Yes, of course.""I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have kept it from you for so long. I shouldn't have kept the news about Siena's from you until now, okay?""Do you think I'll let you off with just that?" Liam was not satisfied."Then what do you want?""The rest will be paid in the evening.""Okay, double compensation," Ivy responded generously.Hearing her say that, Liam was extremely satisfied.He did not mind his daughter's presence at all. He instructed her, "Siena, turn around, I'm going to kiss Mommy.""Why can't I see you kiss Mommy?" Siena was puzzled."Because your Mommy will be shy.""Oh, okay then." Siena turned around wisely."I'm not shy, it's you who is shy." Ivy held Liam's handsome face and kissed him on the lips.Liam was moved for a second, and when he tried to dee
The adoptive parents expressed their understanding. They waved their hands and said, "It's alright. If it were me, I'd be crying happy tears too.""Anyway, thank you very much," Liam said."Mister Liam, you don't have to be so polite. Otherwise, we will be even more embarrassed," the adoptive father said.The adoptive mother held Siena, who seemed a little lost. She pulled Siena in front of Ivy and said softly, "Siena, I'm sorry, Mommy never told you that Ivy is your biological mommy."Siena looked at her in shock. "Really? Is Mommy Ivy my biological mother? Did she give birth to me?""Yes. Mommy wouldn't just pass you to a random stranger, right?" The adoptive mother smiled and said, "Siena, you will be able to spend time with your biological mommy in the future. Isn't that great?"Siena nodded, then stretched out her palm and gently stroked Ivy's face. "Mommy, why are you crying? Don't you want to be my biological mommy?""Siena!" Ivy suddenly pulled Siena into her embrace."
Siena's adoptive parents expressed that they understood. They waved their hands and said, "It's fine. If it were me, we would cry happy tears too." "Anyway, thank you very much," Liam said."Mister Liam, don't say such a thing. If not, we will be even more embarrassed," Siena's adoptive father said.Siena's adoptive mother pulled Siena, who did not know much about what was happening, over to Ivy's side and gently said, "Siena, I'm sorry. I have never told you that Ivy is your real Mommy."Siena looked at her in shock. "Are you serious? Mommy Ivy is my real Mommy? The one that gave birth to me?""Yes, if not, how could I simply give you to any other person?" Siena's adoptive mother said with a smile, "In the future, you will be living with your real Mommy. Are you happy?"Siena nodded before reaching her hand out and touching Ivy's face. "Mommy, why are you crying? Don't you want to be my real Mommy?""Siena!" Ivy suddenly hugged her."Darling, I have been looking for you for s
Siena's adoptive parents looked at each other and smiled.The kitchen was calling them to take their seats.Liam got up and said, "Come, let's eat and talk."Then, he said to Siena, "Siena, go get Daddy and Mommy to eat. They must be hungry."Siena happily brought her adoptive parents to take their seats. The dinner was in the garden. They ate and talked at the same time. The entire process was pleasant.Toward the end, Siena's adoptive mover suddenly got up and walked over to Ivy. She looked at her deeply and said after a while, "Ivy, there is a secret I have been hiding from you for a very long time.""What is it?" Ivy saw how serious she was. She could not help but feel the severity of it."Siena…" Siena's adoptive mother paused for a while before saying, "Siena is the baby that you have been looking for all these years."Ivy was stunned. Liam was stunned too.Ivy was feeling uneasy. Blood was rushing to her head. Shock, delight, surprise, excitement, all of the emotions ga
Ivy heard what Liam said and looked out at the door.When she saw that it was Siena's adoptive parents, she was instantly stunned."They are the guests that you mentioned?""Yes." Liam stood next to her and smiled. He said, "They said they hoped that they could see Siena one more time.""Is that so? That's great." Ivy held Siena's hand and walked out.Outside the door, Siena's adoptive parents were extremely friendly. "Hello! Ivy! Haven't seen you in a while!""Hello." Ivy welcomed them. "Welcome."They looked at Siena behind Ivy. "Hello, Siena. It's been a while."Siena was so anxious she was almost in tears. She said with reddened eyes, "I don't want to go back! I don't want to!"Seeing how Siena was against them, they looked awkward. From there, one could infer how irresponsible they were of their adopted daughter previously.Ivy ruffled Siena's head and said softly in her ears, "Siena, don't be afraid. Your adoptive parents are here to send you off because you're about to
Ivy cleared her throat. She ruffled Siena's head. "Don't listen to your Daddy. How could I be tired? Furthermore, taking care of you is the happiest and proudest thing I have ever done.""Really? Mommy, you really like me that much?""I do."Siena laughed happily."Let's go. We'll head home." Ivy held Siena's hand and they walked under the sycamore tree."Mommy, has Daddy gone back?""Not yet," Ivy said, "Daddy said he wants to give us a surprise.""Oh, that's great. I don't want Daddy to leave us.""Why? Do you like Daddy?""I do." Siena nodded. "Also, with Daddy here, you will be much happier. I like to see you being happy."Ivy saw Siena's face under the sun. She could not help but be moved. Siena was too understanding and caring.She suddenly thought of her own daughter. If she was still around, she would be Siena's age. She wondered whether she was as caring as Siena.At that thought, the smile on her face faded a little."Mommy, look! There are two birds!" Siena sudd
