When Sigrid came to the training ground for her morning exercises the next morning, she found that there was an additional person in the class. There were burn marks on the man's face, but she could tell that was Lucas. Eunice was a little scared and hid behind Wrenna. "Did he committ a lot of murder and arson, so he had been set on fire by someone?" Lucas yelled, "I can hear you!" Wrenna felt a little embarrassed and cried out, "Why are you hiding behind me? I can't protect you!" Sigrid chimed in with a frown, "He is not a bad guy. He is my brother-in-law." Lucas asked, " I thought Elizabeth and I were not in a relationship?" Although Lucas had forgotten who Sigrid was, he could still tell that she was Elizabeth's sister when he heard her words and took a careful look at her appearance. Even though their overall style was very different, her facial features were indeed very similar to Elizabeth's. He could easily figure out that Sigrid w
Tianna reached out her chubby little hand to touch Sigrid's cheek and began to pinch her cheek too. "You pinch my face every day. To make it fair, I also want to pinch yours!" Sigrid laughed and said, "But my face is not as nice to pinch as yours. Your chubby cheeks are the best." Tianna smiled, and her dimples showed. "Mommy, but you are pretty." Sigrid immediately felt happy after she heard Tianna praise her. Tianna blinked her big, black, grape-like eyes. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a cute little dimple. Although Sigrid was taller than her, she was of course younger than her. She especially liked to be complimented. They were similar that way! She was a tall, yet little childish adult! It never occurred to Sigrid that Tianna would think of her like that. After Elizabeth went to have dinner, she sat aside with Tianna in her arms and looked at Sugar Bun and Biscuit. The two children's cheeks were flushed, and their eye
Lucas looked at the two children and felt that they were quite adorable. Elizabeth was good-looking. He figured that the children's biological father must be quite handsome, too. Lucas thought of the burn scars on his face at the moment, and his eyes darkened. How could he compare with the two children's biological father? He knew that he could not compare. "Carry him. He is a little heavy." Elizabeth saw that Biscuit closed his eyes and was sleeping very well. She thought that he would not wake up anytime soon. Thus, she passed him over to Lucas. Lucas took him as his body stiffened a little. He didn't know how to carry a baby at all. This baby was so young and soft. He was worried that he would hurt him if he accidentally exerted force. Elizabeth saw his action of carrying the baby which was stiff and felt a little relieved. As their unreliable biological mother, she suddenly felt that she was more dependable when she looked at their biological father.
A few days later, Miley realized that she had gotten her period. She was unfit to attend some excessive sports courses during these few days. Thus, she did not attend the class. Jonason also stopped part of his course. He was ready to accompany her to rest. The programs for the Weakling Class were filmed and edited into a variety show. The Andrew family had invested in this variety show for it to be broadcasted. As all the members of Enigma, Christin, and Jonason were involved in this show, all their fans came to watch. Miley had constantly been training previously. Thus, she had no time to watch the end product of the show that was filmed. She finally had time to rest. Then, she clicked on the first episode of the show out of curiosity. The website showed that the number of clicks in the first episode of this show had already exceeded 100,000. As there was no repost on Facebook related to this show or notice in advance, the number of fans who knew th
"You should at least post one yourself. You're so lazy by reposting mine." Miley noticed that he did not even have a single word as a caption after he reposted it. She immediately felt a little annoyed. She finished watching the first episode of the variety show and saw many comments that mentioned she had a fairly complicated relationship with Jonason. She also spotted that she didn't pay much attention to it during training. It was inevitable to be intimate with Jonason. As one could see, others had seen through it by watching the edited clips. Jonason had currently reposted her Facebook post right after she posted. Someone would definitely say that they were together again. That was why Jonason reposted it so punctually. Jonason smiled slightly and said, "Your post is very well-written." It would save him a lot of trouble to repost hers. At the same time, he could let those fans know that the relationship between him and Miley was not simple. Jona
Jonason smiled when he saw that she was glaring at him fiercely. He suggested, "Speaking of which, why don't we go out for a date since we will be resting these few days?" Miley rejected, "We'll go later in the next few days." She had just had her period, so if she went on a date at this time, she would not have fun either. Jonason smiled and said, "Okay, let's go to the amusement park then. It's the best place for kids like you to play." Miley's eyes widened in disbelief. "Me? Kid? Are you sure?" He replied, "I'm sure." Miley looked down at her body figure. What kind of a kid had a figure like hers? "Fine. I am a kid. Then, you are a pervert. How dare you lay your eyes on a kid?" She snorted and began to watch the second episode of the variety show. Jonason buried his head in her neck, and his warm breath was on her skin, making her whole body tremble. "Don't get so close to me." She blushed and moved away from him. He was getting more c
"I want to try it too." George suddenly came closer and whispered in her ear. Sigrid immediately blushed, glared at him discontentedly, and yelled, "Be serious!" George couldn't help but hug her. Then, he joked, "Fine. I'll bully you seriously." Sigrid didn't feel like talking to him anymore. She shouldn't expect him to be serious when there were only the two of them. He saw that Sigrid was focused on her mobile phone. George felt neglected and was a little unhappy. Recently, she would be too tired after her training during the day. At night, she was too tired to speak to him. George thought that if he still didn't do anything else, his status in her heart would become lower. Two days later, Sigrid's period came early. Thus, she took temporary leave. George knew that she didn't have to go training for the next few days. Thus, he brought her along to the company. Sigrid once again experienced the days when she worked as his assistant. She
After all, if a person wore black clothes, it would make them look thin. During winter, everyone wore a lot of layers of clothing. Since girls liked to be beautiful, most of them wore dark-colored clothes. George and Sigrid roughly explained the situation to the police at the scene. Then, Sigrid provided her testimony. From a distance, she could see the person Clyde was with through the binoculars. The person was wearing black shorts or skirts. However, in reality, the person might've just been wearing dark-colored clothes. She couldn't see the person clearly because she was too far away. For example, Rose was wearing a black dress, while the two ladies beside her wore dark green and dark blue dresses. The colors were all too dark. All of them were closely similar to black in color. It might really cause people to be mistaken at first glance. In addition, a few other girls stood not far away. The others wore dark-colored clothes, which could be seen as bla
"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
