Shelton didn't take my words seriously. Standing in front of me, he said, "I'm fully devoted to your business. And I once said that it couldn't be more natural for me to do these things for you." He stood there, blocking the white light in the corridor behind him. And the look in his eyes was as gentle as before. For a moment, I mustered up the courage and asked, "Did you do anything illegal or not? I eavesdropped on Grandpa Cowell's conversation before. According to him, it is he who helped you settle what you had done before..." Hearing what I said, Shelton, who had been calm, was somewhat swayed. After a while, he said, "Let's get into the car first." On the way downstairs, I walked behind him. Looking at his tall figure, I guessed randomly as to what he was going to say later. I felt the journey seemed to be quite long. Finally, we arrived at the underground garage. We got in the car. Shelton started the car first, turned on the heating sys
At that moment, without any hesitation, I went forward and hugged Jessica directly! At first, she was shocked. Struggling desperately with her hands, she grabbed me desperately and scratched my clothes and my body with her sharp fingernails wildly. I could feel that she injured the back of my neck. Even so, I had no intention of letting her go. Hugging Jessica, I whispered in her ear, "Don't be afraid. We won't hurt you. And I will protect you. No one will hurt you again. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..." I kept whispering in Jessica's ear, telling her not to be afraid. After a while, she finally quieted down. Then, she reached out and hugged me. I could feel that her arms were trembling. It seemed that she had plucked up the courage to hug me. Hugging her like this, I said, "Let bygones be bygones. No one will hurt you from now on. I will protect you." At this moment, I realized that the reason why I was alive had to be that Jes
Janice hesitated for a moment and said, "In fact, I originally thought that Mr. Shelton was with Emily on a whim. However, after recent observation, I found that the situation didn't seem to be like this." "What's that?" "Every time Mr. Shelton calls Emily Welch by her first name, he calls her in an intimate way. When you aren't around, Emily sits on Mr. Shelton's lap sometimes. And Mr. Shelton will look at her with affection in his eyes and speak to her in an affectionate tone. Sometimes, he treats her more affectionately than he does to you... " What Janice had said made me nervous all of a sudden. "Is that so?" "Could it be that Shelton does fall for Emily Welch?" But I trusted Janice and knew that she wouldn't lie to me. I lowered my eyes slightly and smiled faintly, "I am glad to hear that. In that case, I can give up my title at any time. If he indeed finds someone he likes, I will congratulate him." In fact, Emily was better than m
Patrick reopened the cardoor. I got in the car with him. In the whole rear side of the car, there lay a long sofa with a corner. I looked around and chose to sit at the end. Patrick sat next to me. Sitting about half a meter from me, he looked at me and said seriously, "If it is me who cheated on the maid, will you mind?" "Yes." I blurted out such an answer in my mind. The reason why I didn't oppose Shelton doing so was that I neither cared about him nor liked him. Feeling a little unhappy in my heart, I didn't feel jealous at all. "You will, right?" Patrick answered on my behalf. I looked down, hesitated for a moment, and nodded. Even so, I said to Patrick, "Because I will mind your cheating, so I think I am in the best state now." "What do you mean?" "The current me is sensible, decent, and generous. I can relate to why Shelton is doing so well. I am a perfect Mrs. Shelton." I said calmly. Patrick seemed to
Lacy and Janice had talked so loudly just now. Knowing that I was back, Emily wasn't moved in the slightest at all. Lying there, she didn't have t any intention to get up. From my perspective, I could only see that she was on her side without seeing her expression. However, I could feel that something was wrong. I helped Glenn take off his clothes and said to him, "Go upstairs to have fun first." "Oh." Glenn got my point. After he put on his shoes and walked upstairs, he stared at Emily with pouted lips, looking unhappy. Emily turned a blind eye to him. After confirming that Glenn was upstairs, I changed my shoes slowly and walked over to the side of the couch, seeing Emily's expression clearly. She looked to have been intoxicated by her success. What was going on? On the other side, seeing that I came home, Lacy seemed to be confident, walked over, and scolded loudly, "Emily Welch, stop it before you go too far. Madam is back
Hearing my words, Glenn shook his head and said, "Uncle Shelton got another woman pregnant, which means that he is a bad guy. Mom, don't be with him anymore." Hearing Glenn's words, I was stunned. But I said quickly, "It is a matter between us adults. Only we can solve it between ourselves. You are a child. So you should grow up peacefully and happily, okay?" The affairs between us were too complicated. As for whether Shelton had injected something into Glenn's body or not, its answer was unknown. I assumed that the answer probably was a negative one. But I dared not to bear the slightest possibility. After all, from my point of view, Shelton was somewhat vicious. Glenn pouted his lips as if he were thinking about something. After a while, he said seriously, "Mom, without Dad, I will protect you." "Okay!" I hugged Glenn in my arms and went downstairs. Nancy arrived downstairs soon. After I helped Glenn get changed and sent him out,
Janice opened the door. There was only one person standing at the door. As for this person, I had met him during the day... It was Patrick Cowell. Upon seeing Patrick, I was stunned. "Why did he come here?" "Did Shelton call him just now? It's impossible. Nor does it make sense." At this time, everyone in the room looked at the door, looking a little surprised. Only Janice looked quite calm. Before I could think of anything, Shelton spoke first, "Patrick, why are you here?" His tone was about the same as usual. Seeing that it was Patrick, Emily was startled. Soon, she looked somewhat unwilling. She looked at me with jealousy and hatred in her eyes. I thought that it should be the first time she had seen Patrick in person. In terms of the looking, Patrick was better-looking than Shelton. In addition, he was young with a fierce temperament and a strong aura. Standing at the door with a black coat, he had
"Let them stop beating her," I said to Shelton. "It is her own choice, isn't it?" When Shelton spoke, the look in his eyes was as gentle as ever. It was as if the one who got beaten up had nothing to do with him at all. I was anxious, saying, "But the baby in her belly is yours!" I didn't sympathize with Emily. But the child was innocent, right? And from the bottom of my heart, I probably hoped that Shelton and Emily could be together in the end. Looking at me, Shelton said calmly, "You can bear a child for me, can't you?" "I..." I hesitated for a moment, feeling messy in my heart. Patrick, who had been standing on the side, stood up and pulled me, "Shelton, you can't force others to love you. Don't you know about this?" As Shelton and Patrick both pulled me, the bodyguards beat Emily so hard that she looked in pain. Seeing the situation on my side, she looked ferocious and said to Shelton, "Master, Master, please don't beat m
