Anyway, Tianna couldn't do it. "I like it." Tianna didn't like the pitiful look on Kevin's face, but the word "like" was indeed true. "That's good. As long as you like it. Why do we have to discuss whether or not there is a need to do this?" Kevin asked. Tianna was speechless. There was still something wrong, but she couldn't say it, so she was confused again. In this way, Kevin marked his territory on Tianna slowly, making her gradually get use to the existence of that rose. Once it became a small habit, Kevin started to advance to the next step. On Tianna's birthday the last time, Kevin gave her a necklace. After Tianna asked, she learned that it was from Kevin. Kevin remembered Tianna's reaction at that time and she liked that gift very much. So even though he could not use her birthday as an excuse now, he would still send some jewelry to Tianna. It was nothing too fancy or expensive. It was to the point that it might just be a small
Kevin said it with great confidence, which made it hard for Tianna to doubt him anymore. "But, why do you only give it to me?" Tianna asked again. She was not the only girl in the family. There were Candy and Eleven who were about the same age as her. "You gave me so many gifts, I don't think Candy and Eleven have ever gotten your gifts?" Kevin was speechless. No sh*t, he didn't want to pursue them. Of course, he didn't have to be so deliberate. Moreover, Candy often blackmailed him. He only cared about Tianna. How could he care about others? "Candy is too young. Eleven is only obsessed with martial arts. It's not appropriate for me to give them these." Kevin came up with an excuse casually. As for whether it worked or not, it didn't matter. Candy had been following them secretly and wanted to see the progress of these two people. How could she expect that she would hear these words? How was she too young? It was too much. Kevin was simpl
"Usually?" asked Kevin. During this period of time, under the "guidance" of Candy, although there was no substantial progress in the relationship between Kevin and Tianna, Kevin also felt much better than when he was alone. Therefore, Kevin was very convinced of Candy's opinion. "Yeah, what I mean is that you have to take care of her all the time and make her feel your concern for her. But it can't just be a one-sided offering. You have to ask for something from her!" Candy became more and more excited as she spoke. Although she had no experience with love, had she read so many romance novels for nothing? Theoretically, she was a giant. "Ask for something?" Kevin asked suspiciously. Won't that make Tianna hate him? "That's right! But of course, you should pay attention and be strategic. You can't let Tianna think you're perverted. This will make your image in her mind worse. You have to hold on to that standard so that she can be willing to do
Candy announced in an unabashed way. Tianna was amused by Candy's words, and she also began to joke. "It's fine to appreciate someone's figure, but don't you forget the nature of the training!" said Tianna. "I won't! Kevin's figure is so good, but I watch him at home every day and never lost my mind because of it. This is enough to show that I am quite strong-willed!" Candy deliberately mentioned Kevin and directly pointed out his good figure. After that, she secretly paid attention to Tianna's reaction. Who would have thought that Tianna didn't think much about it. She even nodded and said, "Well, Kevin's figure is really good. I didn't notice it before. Maybe it's because he's like a younger brother to me..." Hearing this, Candy almost vomited blood. If these words were heard by Kevin, he would probably faint from anger. It was too miserable, so miserable that Candy could not help but feel sorry for him. No, seeing that Kevin was so mis
Kevin looked at the phone strangely and suddenly came up with a plan! When they got home, Sigrid had already prepared food for them. "Kevin, did you just come out of the pool? You're drenched!" Sigrid said, "Hurry up and head upstairs, change your clothes, then come down to eat!" "Oh." Without saying anything, Kevin went straight upstairs. Tianna and Candy had also trained that day. Although they didn't sweat so much, they really didn't feel good. They went upstairs to change their clothes and then went downstairs to eat after tidying up. Sigrid stared at her two daughters' thin faces and knew that they had lost a lot of weight due to their recent practice. Her heart ached for them. "Hey, all of you should eat more. You're getting thinner!" Sigrid said. How could parents not want their children to look healthy? What was more, the two of them didn't weigh much in the first place. Now that they had lost weight, they looked like they had been abus
Kevin saw that Tianna was loosening up, so he immediately wanted to take advantage of the situation. "Tianna, I'm so good to you, and you promised to massage me. I'll only lie on the bed for a bit." Kevin added more effort. Sure enough, Tianna, who was originally still firm on her stance, heard Kevin's coy words, and she immediately began to waver. "Well..." Tianna was still very embarrassed. She made up her mind in pain and said, "Fine, you can lie down, but don't mess up my bed!" "I'm just laying on the bed, how could I mess it up!" Kevin said, and then quickly rushed over. The girl's bed was really soft and fragrant. Kevin took a deep breath, but it was very small, so Tianna didn't notice it, lest she might think he was a wretched man... But this behavior was really obscene. However, it was really fragrant. The smell was the same as that on Tianna's body. Even if it was obscene, Kevin also knew it. Tianna glanced at him and shook her h
"You're the one who's feeling guilty!" Tianna immediately retorted. "I'm just... I don't know how to describe it!" "Then, do you like strong ones or weak ones?" Kevin gave her a simple choice, which made it easier to talk about. "Well..." Tianna was really clueless. He dug a hole for her, and she could not help but jump in. "I don't like a weak body, but I don't like the strong kind either, it's a little scary." "Oh, that means you like muscular ones, but not too much, right?" Asked Kevin. "Well, more or less," Tianna replied perfunctorily. Truthfully, there was nothing to be ashamed of on this topic. If it were someone else, Tianna could still talk about it. But talking to Kevin about this topic, she felt that there was something wrong, so she couldn't tell him in detail. But how could Kevin let Tianna go? "Your request is too high. He needs to have muscles, but can't be too muscular. It's too difficult to grasp the standard," Kevin deliberate
"I'm really out of my mind!" Tianna was going crazy. She might as well not sleep that night! After Kevin returned from Tianna's room, he wanted to lie down and sleep, but the warmth of Tianna's hands seemed to remain on his back. Plus, the smell of essential oil was really refreshing. He felt like a walking bottle of essential oil... So, he had to go to the bathroom to take a bath. In the rising steam, Kevin couldn't help recalling the scene of him teasing Tianna. The more he thought about it, the more happy he felt. He guessed that Tianna would definitely lose sleep that night. When he thought of the success of his plan, he felt secretly overjoyed. No, he was obviously overjoyed. At least, right now, Tianna would not think of him as her younger brother. Instead, she would treat him as a man. This was progress. He was slowly planting the idea that something could happen between them, so that there was a possibility of more things happening next.
"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
