However, that feeling of having the same scent as someone he liked was just like the small secrets that only two understood when they were in love. Kevin's feelings were as if he was on a roller coaster. When would his silly "sister" understand? The next day, the siblings set off for class together. As that day was an art class, the girls who loved to dress up beautifully had a reason to put on makeup in public, so they almost seemed to be competing. Kevin wasn't in the same class with them before, so he didn't have a chance to check out Tianna's appearance after dressing up, but he had seen enough that day. Tianna's appearance was pure, and she had a good figure. If she dressed up slightly more maturely, she would immediately make the young boys go wild. Who didn't want to have a girlfriend who seemed to be an angel and a devil at the same time, especially at the age when hormones were erupting? "Kevin, how many times have you been caught by me snea
"Tianna, don't run. Wait for me..." Candy was going to chase after her but was stopped by Kevin. "No, what's going on?" Kevin asked with a frown. Candy was completely pissed off. She shouted at Kevin, "You big fool. Forget it. I don't have the time to scold you now. I'm going to chase after Tianna!" After all, Tianna was now agitated. It was indeed a dangerous move for a person to run away like this. Kevin didn't stop her, but he still didn't understand what was going on. He then recalled what he had done. Was it really because Tianna liked Zac? It wasn't easy for Candy to catch up with Tianna. She wanted to put in a few good words for her brother, but at the mention of Kevin's name, Tianna covered her ears. "Candy, I don't want to hear his name now," Tianna said. Seeing that she was so resistant, Candy also knew that she couldn't be too hasty. She promised, "Alright, alright, alright. Let's stop talking about him. But don't run away alon
It was clear that Kevin was the younger brother, but now it was the younger brother who came to comfort his elder sister. It seemed that their roles had been reversed. Tianna was a little embarrassed and said stubbornly, "Don't make my hair messy." "Alright, I'm not going to do it anymore." Kevin stroked Tianna's hair and asked gently, "Are you still angry?" "Well, I forgive you this time." Tianna pretended to be fierce and said, "If you dare provoke me again next time, I really won't bother about you anymore." She thought that she was fierce, but in fact, she was like a bluffing kitten, putting his heart in a state of chaos. "No, please don't get angry easily. You scared me to death today." Tianna showed a look of complete disbelief and said, "You get scared? But you held it in for the whole night before you came to me to explain..." "I was wrong. I apologize to you, alright?" Kevin had no temper at all in the face of Tianna. As long as she didn't m
"Hmph, what are you showing off for?" Zac said disdainfully, "You're putting on an act!" "I won't be with you, even if I'm putting on a pretentious act!" After Tianna shouted that sentence, she was afraid that she would lose her composure in front of the person she hated, so she immediately ran away. The matter of being adopted had always been a thorn in Tianna's heart. For so many years, she thought that she was okay with it, but when Zac stabbed her using the matter as a knife, she realized that her wound had never healed. It was still in Tianna's heart, fresh and bloody. On the surface, Tianna seemed to have nothing happen to her. When she was having dinner at home, she couldn't stop laughing because of Candy's cold jokes, and she was no different when she helped Sigrid with work. However, as soon as she returned to her bedroom and closed the door, tears streamed out of her eyes. Tianna sat on the bed, hugging the teddy bear by the bed. She
What did Kevin do the previous night? Wasn't he only comforting her in her room for the night? "Alas, don't laugh. It's just dark circles." Tianna just wanted to skip the topic quickly, "Maybe he just didn't have a good sleep." When school was over on Friday, the Andrew family training class usually took a break during weekends, so Candy decided to go on a vacation. "Don't you guys have any ideas?" The purpose of Candy's explanation was to persuade the trio in front of her to go on a trip with her. After all, if she was alone, it was impossible for her parents to agree to it. "How long have we not gone out and have fun? I'm bored to death. I don't know why I especially want to go to the beach recently." Candy acted coquettishly and pretended to be cute, using all her skills, "Please, my good brother and sisters, accompany me..." Kevin and Eleven were relatively calm. Facing the sweet attacks of Candy every day, they had already mastered the skill of
Eleven was so angry that she glared at her. In the end, it was Kevin who resigned himself to his fate and rented two large tents, as well as a large pile of essential equipment for camping. They discussed with the people who built the bonfire, saying that they would be responsible for watching the fire at night and not to put out the fire. However, when they heard that they were also going to camp out, they immediately got together. Kevin was simply a hard worker. Not only did he get a tent, but he also bought a lot of food from outside. He was afraid that everyone could not hold up at night. "I'll bring you out to eat delicious food tomorrow, let's settle with this for tonight," Kevin told Tianna in a low voice. Although everyone had a lot of complaints in the process, when everything was arranged, they sat on the beach and lifted their heads to look at the ink-black night sky. It was decorated with a few bright stars. Their exhaustion from earlier seemed
"Is, is this alright?" Kevin's strength increased, and beads of sweat oozed from the corner of his forehead. Really, it was just sunscreen. It seemed as if he had been put on the fire to be roasted. The sweet torture was finally over. Kevin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but the moment he retracted his hand, his heart began to feel a sense of reluctance. He loved it and was afraid of it at the same time. "What's wrong with you?" Tianna turned around and felt very odd when she saw the sweat on Kevin's forehead. Although the weather was quite hot, it shouldn't be reasonable for them to sweat so quickly while lying under the umbrella? "It's hot, isn't it? Then you should hurry up and drink some beverages. It'll cool you down a little." "Mhm, I'm fine," said Kevin, but he picked up the drink and took a few gulps. It seemed that he wanted to cool down the fire in his heart with the cold drink. But it didn't work well. With such a mesmeriz
Kevin didn't say a word on the surface, but in fact, he agreed with Candy's words. Didn't he lose his soul because of her seduction? How he wished he could lock Tianna up and hide her, treating her as his only belonging. They went back to the beach to play for a while. Tianna still attracted a lot of attention after she changed her clothes. Kevin was like a male lion all the way, almost circling Tianna. In that case, they wouldn't play for a long time. Fortunately, dinner was coming soon, and Kevin initiated to have dinner. "Alright," Candy said reluctantly. Seeing her behaving that way, Tianna only found it funny and comforted her, "We have a swimming pool in the hotel where we stay. It's not safe to play in the sea at night, but we can go to the swimming pool in the hotel." Hearing Tianna's words, Candy immediately cheered. "Hurry up, let's go for dinner and go to the swimming pool after we finish eating!" After all, it was the beach, a
"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
