"It's good. I am telling the truth." I went upstairs as I spoke. I, who had been standing for too long, felt that my legs went numb and that I couldn't even bend my legs with ease. Arriving upstairs, I lay on my bed, looked at the ceiling in a daze, and muttered to myself over and over again, "I've planned to break up with him a long time ago. Since he said it, it's good. I don't have to think about how to raise it to him." "He doesn't have to be worried about me. See? I ran into that kind of thing on the street that day without telling him. And I made it on my own." "Patrick Cowell, you don't have to be worried about me anymore. You will be free in the future." It was unknown how much time had passed before I fell asleep. By the time I woke up the next day, it had been almost at noon. In my opinion, it seemed that human beings couldn't fall asleep. Last night, I had thought it through, figured it out, and gotten over it. Howe
Not long after that day, a female superstar was revealed to have slept with different men, overshadowing news related to me. In the end, my life was as peaceful as it used to be. The studio gradually returned to normal. And the renovation of the former studio had almost been done. So we moved back. I transformed one of Rosy's guest rooms into Glenn's room and got him back to my side. If Glenn went to the same kindergarten as he did before, it would be troublesome. So I intended to transfer him to another kindergarten. It just so happened that Nancy found a kindergarten offering a semi-boarding service for Cicely. She could live there from Monday to Thursday. And Nancy would pick her up and take her home on weekends. According to Nancy, she had studied this kindergarten for a long time and found it quite reliable. So I sent Glenn there as well. Since Glenn wasn't home at ordinary times, I had a lot of free time all of a sudden. Apart from
I hesitated for a moment. In fact, I had prepared Glenn's meal at noon. Hearing Jason's words, I didn't know how to refuse him. So I told him where the major utensils, rice, noodles, and diary products were. I even told him what the seasonings in the cabinet were. Standing by the side, Jason nodded. "I understand. Sister Janetta, take a rest first. I'll take care of the rest." ...... Wasn't he too enthusiastic? For no reason, I began to be wary of him. Generally, people would be shy at others' houses. However, he wasn't like this at all. And he was active and at ease. To test him, I went upstairs first and changed my clothes. Then, instead of going downstairs, I observed him at the stairs. Jason did nothing else but be busy cooking in the kitchen. Soon, he presented a hearty breakfast. I wondered whether I had been oversensitive. At this time, Glenn woke up. While helping him change his clothes, I said, "I invited a brot
For no reason, hearing that he refused me, I felt more at ease instead. Early the next morning, Jason came early as usual. However, I found that he hadn't gotten changed. In the past, every time he came to my house, he would wear different T-shirts. However, this time, the one he wore was the same as that yesterday. Moreover, he had a few dark circles below his eyes. Realizing something, I asked, "You didn't go back to school last night, right?" Upon hearing that, Jason immediately denied it, "No. I caught up with the last bus." I sized his clothes up and said, "You haven't changed your clothes. How come you still want to lie to me?" Hearing that I exposed him, Jason was so shy that his ears turned slightly red, saying, "Well... I didn't catch up with the last bus. So I went to a small hotel and stayed there last night." I saw that he didn't sleep well. All in all, it was all my fault. I had come back home too late last night
I was shocked. Turning my head, I saw that Patrick unexpectedly stood somewhere not far away from us. Unlike the ones pushing carts around us, he only had a bottle of energy drink in his hands. It seemed that he would leave after buying something. By the time I looked over, Patrick had been looking at us with a little gloomy look in his eyes. Looking at him, I couldn't help but feel nervous. Actually, during this period, I had been calculating the days. The deadline of three months Patrick had set had passed. But he hadn't contacted me yet. As I was about to give up, I saw him here instead, which was a bit ironic. "Dad!" Glenn ran over to Patrick first. Beside me, Jason was stunned for a moment before asking, "Sister Janetta, is he your ex... ex-husband?" "Ex-husband..." "Does Patrick count as my ex-husband?" "Strictly speaking, he is sort of." I nodded, "Yes." Patrick bowed his head and smiled at Glenn a lit
I really didn't expect Patrick to say such things to me one day! I could let go of the fact that he had abandoned me for no reason! But, he said such things to me now! However, Patrick didn't give up. Leaning over, he looked malicious and angry, "What if I don't do as you say?" "Then I'll call the police!" I said excitedly. Patrick curled up the corner of his mouth, revealing a cold smile, "Okay, go ahead!" As he spoke, he directly picked me up and pressed me on the bed! "Let me go!" I struggled with all my might! "What's wrong? After tasting the flavor of a young man, now you're starting to dislike me, right?" "What are you talking about? Get lost! Don't touch me!" I was so angry! I hated him so much. Patrick seemed to have suddenly become someone I had never known before! "Bang! Bang! Bang!" Urgent sounds of knocking rang at the door. Then I heard Jason's voice, "Sister Janetta, are you al
"No. It's just that I've been too busy lately. I can't take care of another child since I've spent all my energy taking care of Glenn," I explained. What I said was true. As far as I was concerned, I didn't need to keep the fact that I was here to buy contraceptive pills from Patrick. So I told him the truth. Hearing my words, he looked somewhat gloomy, "Tell me, how many nannies do you need to help you take care of the child? How much do you need? I will shoulder all the expenses for you. If you are pregnant, deliver them!" "I am fine with having a child, that is, Glenn." I lowered my eyes slightly and said. "I'm not." Patrick came up to me in a few steps and raised his hand to grab the drugs in my hands. I stepped back. And he failed to snatch the drugs away from me. I looked at Patrick with some puzzlement. With a calm look on my face, I said, "Mr. Cowell, the way you see it, is it suitable for us to continue to bear children in
This project would be built on the acknowledged suburb of City Y. It would take at least more than an hour to drive from the downtown there. However, there was one advantage here, that was, two rivers met here. Based on the rivers, we would build a residential quarter and lead the water into the residential quarter, making them flow through it. In other words, there would be all running water in the whole residential quarter. Based on my observation of the likings of the rich, that was what they loved the most. Nancy and I both predicted that this residential quarter should be soled out with ease. After taking on this project, Nancy and I had a field trip there. During this period, I often lived there and basically left Glenn to Jason. It took Nancy and me nearly four months to complete this residential quarter project. By the time the project was done, it had been past mid-October. It took us a longer time than we designed a reside
