Miley looked at him disdainfully and asked, "Have you taken a bath yet?" "Not yet. Shall we do it together?" "I've already bathed. Do what you wish." Jonason's eyes lit up. "Does that mean that from now on, we can bathe together if you haven't bathed yet?" "I didn't say that!" She blushed and gritted her teeth. She wanted to push him away, but she also knew that she didn't have the strength to do so. "That's exactly what you mean, I'm sure of it." He pecked her on the lips and smiled. "I don't have a change of clothes. Do you mind if I sleep with you in the nude?" "No! I'm afraid I'll get a stye! Go and take your bath. I'll get my assistant to get you some clothes." After Jonason went into the bathroom, Miley quickly sent a message to her assistant. "Buy me a set of men's pajamas. His height is about 1.9 meters." Miley's assistant was dumbfounded. "Miley, did you bring a man home? Don't do anything silly! What if the reporter
The next day, it was already twelve o'clock when Sigrid got up. As she brushed her teeth, she turned on the phone and it immediately started vibrating. Messages came one after another. She only felt that her mobile phone was going to explode. Sigrid quickly brushed her teeth and ignored the messages. She only started reading them when she was drinking a glass of milk after lunch with George. She'd received a personal message on Twitter. The name looked like her university classmate's name. However, there were too many students in her class during university, 60 of them. It was mostly girls in their class. They would usually mingle around with people from the same dorm room. Although they would look familiar because they were from the same class, or they would know that they belonged to the same class after listening to the name. However, it was hard to place the faces to the names. Sigrid clicked into it and saw more than thirty messages. The pages loaded quickl
There were many toys in the box. "I will comb my little brother or sister's hair in the future," said Tianna as she looked at Sigrid's belly expectantly. Sigrid laughed awkwardly. "Sweetie, infants don't have enough hair for you to comb." After all, children were shaved bald at the beginning. Even girls might only start to keep their hair long after they turned one. Tianna was immediately very disappointed. "Then when will they have hair?" "After they can walk, their hair will grow out slowly. But your younger brother will still have short hair. Only your younger sister will grow her hair out." Sigrid caressed Tianna's head. She might not be able to have boy and girl twins. Even though she had always prayed that she would be able to during this period of time, the chances of this happening were very low. This was not something that she could just pray for. Tianna was puzzled. "Why does my brother have short hair? I like long hair!" "Your y
They were able to find a teacher for Tianna quickly, and Sigrid's birthday was approaching. There were still three more days until Sigrid's birthday, and George had planned to bring her some of her favorite food. Ever since she was pregnant, there were people who supervised her dishes in order to prevent her from eating anything that might adversely affect the baby. No matter how good the chef was, Sigrid could not eat her favorite food. She was too tired to go out to celebrate, so she just stayed home. Three days later, during the evening, Sigrid noted that the house was very beautifully decorated. How'd everything change while she'd just had a nap? There were even balloons. "What's the matter? Is there a party?" Sigrid looked at George in confusion. George saw her reaction and knew that she had forgotten it was her own birthday. He frowned. "It's your birthday today. Did you forget?" It was only then that Sigrid remembered and smiled awkwardly.
Tianna nodded understandingly. "Okay." The movie had only played for around 20 minutes, and George was beginning to feel drowsy. Only children would enjoy such a boring plot. He turned to look at whether Sigrid was feeling as sleepy as he was. To his surprise, her eyes were wide open and she was completely focused. George thought to himself, "Is she still a child?" After an hour and a half passed, the movie ended. However, George had already fallen asleep. Sigrid hurriedly nudged him. "George! Wake up!" George wasn't in deep sleep. He woke up after she nudged him and reached out to grab her wrist. "Call me Hubby." Sigrid blushed and glanced at Tianna. She saw that she was looking at them curiously and said, "Tianna is still here. You should get up first and wait until she falls asleep." Why did they have to wait until she fell asleep? Did they have some sort of secret between them? Tianna was confused. George stood up and re
She would never like him! "Oh?" George's tone suddenly cooled. "It seems that I've been too kind to you recently. You've become so arrogant." Sigrid suddenly got a bad feeling and smiled awkwardly. "Hubby, I was just joking with you. Oh no, my legs don't feel comfortable. They feel swollen. Can you massage them for me?" George's anger dissipated a lot after he heard her coquettish tone and her calling him "hubby". He looked at Sigrid and still helped her to massage her legs accordingly. "They're a bit thicker, but they're still nice to look at," he said. Sigrid held the pillow and covered the lower part of her face, only revealing her eyes. She looked at him seriously while he massaged her feet. She felt happy from the bottom of her heart. In the past, she never would've imagined a man like him, so bossy and domineering, to massage her legs for her. She felt like she was the king of the world! Sigrid asked curiously, "If I can't
The assistant said hesitantly, "By the way, Miss Loris. With regards to Miss Elizabeth..." "What's the matter with her?" As soon as she heard that it was about Elizabeth, Loris became more alert. The assistant frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Miss Elizabeth seems to be acting very strange recently. According to our investigation, she doesn't seem to be investigating you anymore. Instead, she has been locking herself in the room. But a few days ago, she came out again. So we are not sure... if she has begun to investigate on you again." Loris was so angry that her face turned red. Elizabeth, that b*stard. Didn't she lock herself up after she found out that she was pregnant and stopped investigating her? Why was she paying attention to her again? If she was still being investigated, then won't others find out what she did? At the thought of this, Loris's face suddenly became gloomy. There was no room for failure this time, and nobody could
Miley couldn't believe her ears. "What's the point of complaining only after he's done something? I would've been taken advantage of by then!" "I'll only have an excuse to berate him once you've been taken advantage of." Elizabeth frowned. "Anyway, my brother is a great guy. He may not say the nicest things, but he genuinely likes you." "Please, tell him not to!" Miley cried. "Take him away, please?" "Rather than finding a way to drive him away, why don't you go stay with Natasha or Lindsay? He won't be able to follow you there," suggested Elizabeth kindly. Miley's eyes lit up instantly. "You're the smartest!" After Elizabeth hung up the phone, she selected a few songs and sent the titles to her manager. She received a message from him. She wanted to take on a show before her belly showed, however, there were no good scripts for dramas or films recently. They offered roles she was not interested in, but there was one show that Elizabeth was suited
"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
