"No." I refused immediately. "You have to." Patrick pressed me against the wall. And I saw that his handsome face was getting closer and closer to me bit by bit. His perfectly sculpted facial features were a few millimeters away from me. I couldn't escape. Helping me unbutton my top one by one, he put his thin lips close to my ear and said, "I'll help you." ...... Patrick and I stayed in this house for two days. On the third day, Patrick finally received a response from the team in Country R. Roger came over with two sets of clothes. And Jeremy also drove over. We arrived at Towering High together. By the time we arrived there, the directors of Towering High had all been waiting there. Shelton was among them. Patrick arranged for me to settle in his office before going to the conference room on the 19th floor. I waited for him in the office. The whole morning passed by very quickly. At noon, I fin
Now that as I recalled, I was in a good state now. I put my past and behind and got reborn. I was no longer someone who could only be humble. Now, I had Glenn and a master. And I was skilled and capable. I shouldn't have buried myself in the past. Right? Ignoring my words, Patrick said to Jeremy on the side, "Jeremy, go get all the things Uncle Shelton wants and give them all to him." "But... " "Go!"Patrick ordered! Although Jeremy was very reluctant, he did as Patrick said. On the side, Roger was anxious, saying, "No! You can't give them to him." He said to Patrick, "Brother, you have been working hard so many years before getting these things. If you give all of them to him, you will lose everything!" "Go downstairs and wait for me there." Patrick drove Roger away. But Roger refused to leave, saying, "I won't go. I'm telling you, with me standing here today, if you dare to give your things to him, beat me to death firs
Lowering my eyes, I clutched my hands slightly. Then I looked up at him again with a beautiful smile and said, "Well, I will never leave you. Please don't hurt Glenn. He means everything to me." Hearing this, Shelton seemed to be a little injured, asking, "Does he mean everything to you? What about me?" "You are my husband," I answered naturally. For the sake of Glenn, I would stay by Shelton's side all the time. Shelton seemed to be quite satisfied with my answer. Nodding, he took out my cell phone from his pocket and handed it over to me. As for the fact that my cell phone was with him, I didn't pay much attention to it. As I was about to put my cell phone away, I heard Shelton say, "I installed software on your cell phone. And wherever you go, I'll find out your whereabouts. And if you contact Patrick, I'll know it too." His words made me stunned. I looked up at Shelton somewhat incredulously and opened my mouth. In the end, I said bri
Besides Emily Welch, regarding the other two servants, I learned something about them. One of them was Janice who was in her fifties. The other one was Lacy in her thirties. Per Shelton's request, the Cowell Family sent Janice to work here. She, who was good at cooking, was the sole chef here. Lacy was a child of Janice's relative, who had no job. It happened that we were recruiting maids here. So she came to work here upon Janice's introduction. When I was learning about them, Glenn woke up. As soon as he, who came downstairs barefoot by himself, saw me, he shouted with his eyes shining, "Mom!" Running to my side, he climbed to the sofa, climbed onto my lap, and hugged my neck, shouting, "Mom, you are back!" "Yes." Seeing the shallow scars on his face, I felt a burst of pain in my heart. I wanted to ask him what Shelton had done to him in the past few days. But Shelton was right upstairs and could come down at any time. I thought a
Because Emily kept talking, the whole dinner was delayed for another hour. I was listening to her most of the time. However, fearing that Glenn would eat too much, I had to take care of him. As I was looking at Glenn, I took a look at Shelton out of the corner of my eyes. With a glance at him, I was stunned. By this time, Shelton had finished his meal. Putting down his chopsticks, he stared at Emily attentively as she spoke. Although the look in his eyes was as gentle as ever, there was a kind of attentiveness that was unfamiliar to me in his clear eyes. Shelton looked at Emily so intently. However, he was looking at others through Emily. At this time, I turned to look at Emily, only to find that she was looking at Shelton closely as well. However, as she looked at Shelton attentively, she wasn't the same as Shelton. It was exactly Shelton who she was looking at. And Shelton was all over her eyes. I felt that my he
Her words made my heart tighten. Curling up my lips slightly, I said jokingly, "In that case, it won't be good. He has to change. Otherwise, once his wife runs away with another man someday, he won't have time to regret it." Regarding the relationship between Patrick and I... The only chance for us to be together probably had come when we lived in the Most Powerful Family five years ago. However, because of Patrick's self-righteousness, we were farther and farther away from each other. And we would never be together again. "You and Patrick..." "It's all in the past." Before Nancy could finish her words, I spoke in advance. Turning around, I went to press the button of the elevator. What had happened between Patrick and I was left behind in the past. And the two of us wouldn't have anything to do with each other in the future. At the thought of this, I couldn't help but be sour and distressed in my heart. Even so, I couldn't ch
"It's nothing." After finishing my words, I turned to show my concern for Shelton. "Did I hit you?" Looking gentle, Shelton touched my forehead and said, "It's good that you're all right." I lowered my head shyly. Lowering my head, I couldn't see the look on Emily's face. Even so, I could see clearly that she clenched her hands into fists. Without ever looking at her, I knew what the look in her eyes was like. Lowering my head, I stood in Shelton's arms for a while before raising my head and saying, "I'm going to wake Glenn up." "You don't have to do that." Shelton grabbed me, "Leave Glenn to the maids. We will only be there for a few hours. And we will come back at noon." ...... I turned my head and glanced at Emily. At this time, hearing Shelton's words, she, who had a fake smile on her face, said with great enthusiasm, "Master, Madam, rest assured that you can leave Young Master to me. Having been taking care of my younger brothe
"Congratulations!" "I'm so envious of Miss Nolan. She can marry such an outstanding man as you, Mr. Shelton!" "Mr. Shelton, I wish Miss Nolan and you a harmonious union forever! May you two have a baby early!" Amid the blessings of the audience, the press conference came to an end. Standing on the stage like a puppet, I felt extremely complicated in my heart. The fact that Shelton officially announced the relationship between him and me on such an important day left me no room to go back on my words. Because now everyone knew it. After the press conference was over, both Bailey and Andie came over and greeted me respectfully, "Mrs. Cowell." I felt depressed in my heart. But I couldn't say anything. Walking to me after finishing everything at the press conference, Shelton seemed to sense that I was somewhat unhappy. So he raised his hand and patted me on the shoulder, asking, "What's wrong? Aren't you happy? Don't you like the
