Edward was the only one who had these things. It was obvious he did it. She was his wife! She was still pregnant with his child! How could he do that to her! Rebecca couldn't help but cry. She clenched onto the bedsheet and gritted her teeth. However, she had no place to vent her anger. She told Edward that she fed him with the sterilization medicine that day. That was why Edward was taking his revenge on her! But why had she done it? Wasn't it because she worried that he would mess around and impregnate other women? There was no way she would've done that if she hadn't been sure that her baby was a boy! As Rebecca thought of that, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her stomach. She frowned slightly and guessed that she might have been too angry just now, affecting the baby. That night, Sigrid sat next to George in the study. They were looking at the details of the dinner party that would be held the following night. Sigrid asked
Sigrid was boiling with anger. Did he want to be beaten for saying that? Was there any other people who married their significant others using their abilities? He was plotting all kinds of moves against someone he liked. No wonder he was Dummy George! George saw her aggrieved look and softened his attitude. He hugged her and said, "As long as you don't leave me, I can give you anything that you want, except for divorce." "Then you're not allowed to touch me at night!" "That's also out of the question." She felt so angry! He said that she could ask for anything except for a divorce. Yet he'd gone against his words the very next second! Sigrid turned around in a huff. "You have no integrity at all. I don't want to talk to you anymore." I'll talk to you then." As he said that, he smiled slightly and began to unbutton her clothes. "Please, leave me alone!" Perhaps it was because George thought that Sigrid didn't like doing these things, hence
Sigrid said seriously, "It's Daddy who didn't want to take you out." Tianna felt like her little head was dizzy. Who was the one who didn't want to take her out to play? Tianna said, "Both of you are bad!" She felt aggrieved and went into Alisa's arms to seek comfort. Alisa patted her on the back and said, "Sweetie, let's watch TV together later." Only then did Tianna feel comforted. After that, George and Sigrid left. The car stopped at the entrance of the hotel. After they got out of the car, Sigrid saw many reporters waiting nearby. Their arrival attracted a lot of reporters' attention, who hurriedly walked toward them. "Mr. Toland, what are your thoughts regarding the issue of you slandering Rebecca with your power, causing her to have a miscarriage?" "Mr. Toland, is it really like what the rumors say that in fact, you two have been together for a long time? To make her your rightful wife, you deliberately set up Rebecca and her
Lucas was stunned. If it weren't for the fact that he was sure that they didn't know each other before this, he would've immediately believed her! The dinner banquet was being held in a hall on the fourth floor of the hotel. There were many prominent people in City A invited, as well as many celebrities to ensure that all eyes were on the banquet. Jonason arrived early. He had confirmed with Elizabeth earlier that Miley would be there that night. Thus, he was there early to wait for her. When he saw Miley walk in, he quickly turned to face the wall and tidied up his clothes. When he felt that his appearance was perfect, he strode up to Miley. Miley had originally intended to have some snacks first. Before the dinner banquet, she had a job in hand and had rushed over without having a bite. When she saw the food, Miley couldn't help but walk towards it. However, she heard a familiar voice by her side when she picked up a small cake, "This has high calories.
Jonason saw her confused look and explained, "Didn't you say that you were worried about getting pregnant? If you don't have any desire to do so, there is no need for you to worry about getting pregnant even if you accept the things I give you." Oh my gosh! Miley realized that what she said a while ago had not only made him look like a pervert, but it had made her sound like she was not too innocent herself either. However, Jonason was the only person in the world who would interpret what she had said in that way. He was obviously the one who was not innocent at all! Miley glared at Jonason and said nothing further. She lowered her head and continued to enjoy her snacks. The dinner banquet soon officially began. Logan was the first to make an appearance to greet the guests, while George and Sigrid held conversations with the others who were there. The whole process did not require them to do anything else but to maintain being intimate with each othe
Sigrid asked curiously, "Don't mind him. What did you and Vallerie talk about?" George replied, "We'll talk about it when we're home." He grabbed Sigrid and left, while turning around to give Edward a warning look. Edward felt a chill run down his spine with that glance. However, he didn't dare to say anything. He could only watch them leave, cursing George quietly. Sigrid got into the car with George. Before she could explain, he started questioning her instead, "What did you two talk about just now?" His tone made Sigrid feel unhappy. She asked, "What else is there for us to talk about? Why are you so angry?" Only then did George's expression relax a little. He said, "I'm worried that he'll trick you." After all, Sigrid had lost her six months of her memory. Who knew if she still had feelings for Edward? The current her had not seen Edward and Rebecca's affair with her own eyes. Sigrid pursed her lips and asked, "What? Do I look stupid?"
Charles looked at her leaving, and smiled, with a trace of subtle tenderness flashing in his eyes. After Wrenna entered her bedroom, she breathed out deeply. Then, a loud thump could be heard on the door. Someone was knocking on her door loudly. Wrenna who was leaning against the door, was caught off guard by it. Wrenna opened the door and saw an arrogant-looking Waverley standing outside. Wrenna frowned and asked, "Waverley, what's the matter?" Waverley replied, "Nothing." She raised her head proudly and said, "I'm just here to tell you that don't you ever think that Charles likes you just because he proposed for marriage." Wrenna felt her head throb. She did not want Charles to like her either. Waverley replied, "You are quite sensible. At least you still knew how to refuse. You are afraid that you'll face worse consequences in the future, right?" She said harshly, "Anyone could tell that Charles is actually angry with me. Otherwise, wh
Derrick nodded as if he didn't care at all. He completely didn't notice the cold glint flashing across Yolanda's eyes at all. When Yolanda entered Waverley's bedroom, she was sitting on the bed with tears in her eyes. Yolanda smiled slightly and gracefully sat beside her daughter. She gently patted her forehead and asked, "What are you angry about?" Waverley pursed her lips and turned her head away, saying, "Nothing." Yolanda sensed her daughter's not-so-good emotions and patted Waverley's shoulder. She asked, "Did you eavesdrop on the conversation between me and your father?" Waverley turned around, and her eyes were red. She asked, "Mom, why did you ask father to arrange someone else for me? I..." Yolanda replied, "There's no such thing." She gently combed through her hair. She said, "My daughter is so beautiful. You're the only one who's worthy of Charles." Waverley asked, "Then why...?" Yolanda replied, "Silly child. Why made you who
"Okay." Grace agreed and said, "I have something else to discuss with you." When he finally heard this sentence, Zaden knew that there must've been something going on. "What's the matter?" As they talked, they went into the lounge. Zaden also specifically told the secretaries that no one was allowed to come in and disturb him before work in the afternoon. These words made the secretaries' eyes turn red. Since he had ordered them to keep everyone out of his office while he was inside with a woman, it was hard to control their imaginations from running wild. "How's your investigation on my surrogacy?" Grace asked. Zaden had thought that Grace's patience was wearing thin, and so she had sought him out for an update on his progress. Feeling a little ashamed, he said, "I'm sorry. There hasn't been any progress so far. You know that information on surrogacy is highly secured. It won't be so easy for my subordinates to investigate it." "It's okay. You
"Stop!" Grace made a gesture and said, "I'm going to the Empire Group. Do you want to go with me?" "Oh?" Gentry was flustered for a moment and then realized that he had almost gotten himself in trouble. He quickly said goodbye. "Sorry, sorry for bothering you. It's my fault!" Grace shook her head helplessly. She went to the kitchen to bring the toiletries she had prepared for Zaden, and set off for the Empire Group. Grace took a cab, as she didn't have the nerve to ask her chauffeurs to give her a ride. This was the first time Grace had taken the initiative to go there. She didn't know whether she was going to meet Zaden or not, but the staff at the front desk had changed since the last time she had went to deliver food and she didn't know when it had happened. Hence, the new staff didn't know her at all. However, when she saw that Grace was dressed up very beautifully and elegantly, she guessed that Grace must be someone important. Naturally, she didn't d
This time, Grace took the initiative. She stood on tiptoe, hooked her arms around Zaden's neck, and took the initiative to plant her pink lips on his. The chaste kisses turned into lingering kisses. Zaden had always restrained himself very much. Every time he met Grace, he always felt that he was on the verge of losing control. "Well, I can't believe that you are so obedient today. Go to sleep. If you kiss me again, I might not remain chaste. You won't have a chance to sleep even if you want to," said Zaden. After going to bed, Grace took the initiative to cradle into Zaden's arms. Just like Dulcie acting like a spoiled child, Grace had also put all of her heart and soul into Zaden, like a spoiled child. The next day, there was still no sign of Zaden at breakfast in the Andrew household. "Oh? Dad's gone again..." Dulcie said regretfully. Douglas found that his sister was upset, thus he comforted her, "It doesn't matter, Dulcie. Daddy need
The silent confrontation was still going on, and Zaden was waiting. When would Moira give in? Moira was also waiting. When would Zaden be gracious enough to let her go? However, perhaps these two people didn't know each other very well. They both had naive expectations that were absolutely wrong and impossible to achieve from the beginning. "It's so cold..." Moira murmured in a low voice. As she spoke, a puff of white vapor immediately appeared in front of her lips. Even though kneeling down like this was not a big deal, Moira had always been pampered and had grown up a spoiled child. She had never suffered this kind of hardship before. Her body could not bear it either. She only felt that her legs were on the verge of losing its strength and becoming numb. The rain grew heavier and heavier, and the wind and rain swayed. Flowers in the garden were beaten into a mess by the rain, as so was Moira. Moira's body had reached its limit, and she could not catch h
"Plop—" Moira's kneecaps hit the ground, the sound of it ringing crisp. Grace was dumbfounded. She looked at Moira, who was kneeling in front of her, and could not say anything for a while. As for Zaden, there was not even the slightest expression on his face. "What, what are you doing?" Grace asked. She instinctively stood up from her chair as she took in the scene before her, at a complete loss of what to do. Moira glanced at her. Sometimes, when one's ego was at one's feet, one becomes more able to take humiliation than usual. She replied with indifference, "Why are you so agitated? I'm not kneeling at you. Don't think too much of yourself." Moira looked at Zaden and said, "Zaden, I beg you, please have mercy on the Coulson family. No matter what you demand, as long as I can do it, you can demand it!" Zaden frowned and said, "Kneel further if you want to. You're an eyesore right now." Mercy? For someone like Zaden, mercy had always bee
"No, Mother, if Zaden takes over the Coulson Group, then we..." Moira could not continue speaking. She did not even want to imagine what would happen. "You understand now? I thought a donkey kicked you in the brain!" "That... That won't do. I'll go beg him right now!" Moira shouted. Now that things had come to this, it was obvious that Zaden's target was Moira. Although she was extremely unwilling, she would have to make a stand against him now. No matter what she would have to experience, she had to protect the company. She could not lose everything. She rushed to the Andrew family villa, but Moira was not even allowed through the main entrance. "Let me in!" Moira began making a scene outside. She made such a ruckus that it was difficult for the people inside to ignore her. "Mr. Andrew, Miss Coulson is causing a scene outside, this..." the butler informed Zaden "Let her be," Zaden said expressionlessly. This was not the first
Grace frowned before cutting Moira off. "Moira, there's no use in talking to me like that. I just want to know who it is. Tell me the truth!" "Do you think I'll tell you just because you want to know?" Moira scoffed before retorting, "Who do you think you are?" "Does this mean that you admit you used Mr. Yale's name to deceive me?" Grace quickly latched onto the loophole in Moira's words. "Hah, I didn't say that. You're just making things up." Moira was still as stubborn as a mule. She once again diverted the topic so that she could insult and ridicule Grace. All sorts of vulgarities came through the call, and each minute that passed only pushed a person's limits even further. Grace felt nothing at Moira's words. However, Zaden, who was next to her, did not want to hear any more of it. He was on his last straw, so he grabbed the phone to end the call. "Are you stupid? Just letting her scold you like that?" Zaden asked, his tone sour. "As long a
"Mr. Yale and his wife are quite old, so having children has been difficult for them. In the beginning, they contacted many surrogacy agencies. However, Mr. Yale was extremely cautious when it came to picking a surrogate mother. This caused a lot of trouble to the agencies since the surrogate mothers they suggested never met his standards." "Later, Mr. Yale thought about going abroad to find a surrogate mother. However, right at the critical moment, he suddenly found out that Mrs. Yale was already pregnant!" "The pleasant surprise caused them to give up their search for a surrogate mother. After all, Mrs. Yale wasn't getting any younger and they both went through a lot to get this son, so that's why the Yale family treats him so preciously." As Zaden listened to the report from his subordinate on the other end of the call, his mood grew complicated. The only way he could clear his mind was to focus on the fact that the night wind had blown his body cold. To be h
Mr. Yale's word of thanks was like a knife stabbing into Grace's heart. How could she be worthy of his gratitude? She could not take it anymore and felt like returning to the car to escape the situation. Mr. Yale withdrew his hand in embarrassment. Even he, who was usually slick and smooth, could not find the right words to say at this time. Zaden tried to smooth things over by saying, "I'm sorry, she was one of the victims too, so..." "I understand," Mr. Yale said with a nod. "We understand and more than anything else, we thank you, Mr. Andrew. You've worked hard today. We won't take up any more of your time. You should go back early and rest. We will definitely drop by next time to properly thank you." Zaden nodded and turned to get in the car. Dulcie was all worn out from crying too long, so she was curled up in her seat and fast asleep. Zaden asked softly, "What on earth happened before I arrived?" Grace suddenly turned teary-eyed. The tear
