The bodyguard touched his nose awkwardly and thought to himself silently, "Monica is so ugly until she has frightened Young Madam Candy, so Young Madam Sigrid drove her out. However, she is still dissatisfied and insists that she is not ugly. Furthermore, she also claims that Young Madam Sigrid and Elizabeth are only beautiful because of their makeup, and that they look ugly without it..." From a man's point of view, the few women in front of him weren't just good-looking after putting on makeup! If this was the standard one should have to be considered good-looking, how should a girl look to be considered as very good-looking? Natasha looked at Monica thoughtfully and pulled Christin, who was getting out of the car. She asked, "What's the matter? Is your cousin blind? Doesn't she look at herself in the mirror? How could she say that the others look good because of makeup and ugly after removing it, just because she doesn't know how to do makeup? Does she really think that
After Eunice heard the man's obscene words, she felt sick. "Lunatic, let go of me!" He inched closer to her. Unfortunately, there was still some distance from the hotel lobby. Eunice couldn't even find someone to help her. She was in great fear. Was she really going to be taken advantage of by this ugly and stinky man? "Get out of my way! Hurry up and let go of me!" The drunk man only regarded it as a kind of flirtatious play. He stared at Eunice with his greedy eyes and was about to do something outrageous. At this moment, they heard an ice-cold and teasing voice, "It's not that nice to bully a girl, right? Especially when it's such a lovely girl." Eunice turned around and saw another man. She was surprised. How could it be him? However... Would he really help her out? What if he bullied her together with this creepy guy? She remembered that she and Sigrid had been kidnapped before. Her brother told her later that Dickson might have actually kidnapp
In the end, he waited for a long time and still didn't receive a reply after sending this message. "What's wrong? Are you angry?" Dickson went through the messages he had sent before and analyzed them. He felt that he didn't say anything wrong. Why did Eunice suddenly stop replying to him? He didn't bother thinking about the problem anymore since he didn't know what went wrong. Dickson called someone over and ordered, "Help me find out which room Eunice is staying in." "Yes, sir," one of his employees replied and left. A person had to use their real name to make a room reservation at the hotel for registration purposes. It happened that since Dickson had already known that Eunice was her real name. Hence, Dickson's employee played a few tricks at the reception desk and obtained her room information. Then, he immediately reported it to Dickson. It was not so realistic to go get a room card. Dickson roughly calculated the number of floors and stood on
Candy looked puzzled and asked, "Auntie?" "That's right. I am your aunt." Lindsay pinched her soft cheeks. "Come on. I will bring you to walk around the hotel so you won't feel bored." Candy liked people who looked harmless. Lindsay looked so cute with her doll face. Children liked her too and were easier to get along with. She grabbed Lindsay's sleeve and let Lindsay carry her around. When they almost arrived at the bathroom, two people appeared in front of them; one big, one small. The man was tall and big. Even though he had drank a lot of alcohol, he still stood upright. The little kid standing beside him was wearing a small suit with a tie, looking like a gentleman. Cleveland tugged his father's sleeve as he saw Lindsay approaching them. "Dad, it's that girl who I should call sister." Lindsay thought to herself, "I'm so annoyed! I'm not a young girl! I'm considered an aunt!" Simon's cold eyes didn't look so cold when he was drunk. He
Eunice considered herself unlucky. After all, Dickson was the one who had drove her back. If she just left him behind alone, it seemed a bit unjustifiable. After a while, she could only suck it up and said, "Fine, I'll send you back! Seriously!" Although she complained a lot, Dickson still managed to win his first victory. He slowly walked outside with Eunice. Dickson looked at the big folder of reports in her hand and asked, "Did you go to the hospital for an examination?" "Went to get the report." Eunice didn't even bother to say another word. "Let me have a look." As Dickson said this, he took the folder from Eunice's hand. Eunice thought to herself, "Can he even understand it?" It was very tiring to hold it anyway. If he wants to see it, let him be. She won't suffer any losses, so she might as well not stop him. To her surprise, Dickson really understood it. As he walked, he went through the stack of physical examination reports, only to fi
Cleveland thought to himself, "You don't like her anyway. Why do you care how I call her? Why do you fuss over minor matters?" The holiday break for the beginner class was about to end. They had to go to back class two days later. Eunice took this opportunity to go out for a walk during this break. After all, she was afraid that her stamina could not even catch up if she wanted to go out to play in the next month. Eunice hadn't seen her university classmate in a long time. In addition, she was craving something to eat too. Thus, they agreed to eat at the food stall together. However, she didn't expect that her classmate had something to do last minute, so she didn't come. "I'm sorry, Eunice," her friend apologized to her on the other end of the phone. She felt sorry that she really couldn't come as agreed and said, "Next time, it's definitely my treat." "Hey, it's fine. You didn't do it on purpose." Eunice hung up the phone while feeling considerate for he
Dickson did not explain anything and only insisted on making Eunice sit down. Eunice was baffled. However, she didn't want to attract the other people's attention. Thus, she sat down silently and asked softly, "What has gotten into you?" By this time, most of the people had left already, leaving only Dickson and Eunice inside the theatre hall, as well as two staff members who had just come in to do some cleaning. However, at this time, Dickson suddenly took off his clothes, which startled Eunice. It was even scarier than the horror movie earlier. "You! What! What are you doing?" Eunice stammered and looked at Dickson in horror. She crossed her arms in front of her chest, wondering if he was having any evil thoughts? However, even if Dickson wanted to do something to her in the cinema, why didn't he take advantage and do something to her when it was completely dark in the theatre room earlier when the movie was showing? This didn't make any sense. How
"After the classes resume, I will go learn shooting and martial arts. By that time, you can accompany me to practice shooting in the shooting room. Do you know how?" Sigrid moved closer to George and asked curiously. George nodded and said, "I have learnt it before." Sigrid thought that he had only learned the basics based on what he said. At that moment, she began to fantasize that if she practiced hard and be well-prepared, her shooting would be very accurate. This would surprise him. Just thinking about it made her feel that she was so awesome! Seeing that Sigrid was looking at him strangely, George frowned. "What are you thinking about?" "Nothing!" Sigrid answered quickly. She was preparing to compete with him in the future to let him know how awesome she was after she won! "I can't let him know what I'm thinking right now. What if he secretly practices behind my back?" George frowned and felt that she must be up to no good. However, he cou
"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
