It was indeed true. Every time Kevin helped Tianna to adjust, she would repeat it. However, it felt completely different after. As for the other girls, Kevin usually only taught them verbally without hands-on guidance. Obviously, the effects of just verbal teaching would be less effective. "Then, why don't you help them adjust their movements?" Tianna still didn't get it, and she asked foolishly. "Oh... Do you mean that I also have to help them adjust their movements like this?" Kevin asked while holding Tianna's slender waist, exerting force to keep her body straight. "Do I?" His hot breath blew on Tianna's ears. That thought, which felt normal before, suddenly seemed a bit off... She was the one who made it feel off. If Kevin also helped the other girls to adjust their movements like this... Wouldn't that mean that he also had to stick closely to them like this? Just imagining the scene almost made Tianna break down! Tianna didn't under
"No," Tianna glared at Kevin fiercely. How could she be reluctant to spend money when she wanted to treat him so sincerely? "We're both dressed so casually. Won't we look out of place if we go to the western restaurant dressed like this?" Usually, those who went to eat western wore more formal outfits. They looked obviously like students at the moment, which made them look very strange. "The restaurant I chose doesn't request formal attire. In that case, what's so strange about it if we dress like this?" Kevin said confidently. "Besides, the important thing is who we eat with. Why do we have to be so serious about things like clothing requirements?" Kevin said this casually, but when Tianna heard it, she felt that he was just flirting. Which girl would not think of other things after hearing these words? "You're really good at smooth-talking." Tianna pretended to be disgusted. Kevin laughed secretly in his heart. Was this smooth-talking? He hasn't ev
Kevin caught up with her from behind. Then, they went to collect the movie tickets together. "Do you really want to get angry at me for this?" Kevin sounded pitiful and said, "You hardly ever ask me out for dinner and a movie. Do we really need to argue?" "Who wants to argue with you?" Tianna said angrily. She glared at Kevin and turned away to the other side, unwilling to look at him. Kevin was patient. He went in front of Tianna and coaxed her, "Look, you can buy me a drink. I want to drink that..." Kevin pointed to the advertisements next to them, although he didn't even know what was advertised on them. He just wanted Tianna to get over it. It was rare for them to go on a date. He was reluctant to quarrel with Tianna. Wasn't that a waste of an opportunity? "That's settled then. I'll buy the drinks," Tianna said, strictly. "Okay, it's on you." Kevin ordered two cups and handed one to Tianna. He said shamelessly, "Girlfriend, you pay fo
Just when Zac noticed Kevin and Tianna, Kevin also noticed him. Kevin had always found Zac very annoying. However, he had to admit that he'd gotten the opportunity to get this far with Tianna because Zac had kept bugging Tianna. He still cherished it, even if it was fake. "There's..." Kevin stopped all of a sudden and let go of her hand. He held Tianna's face seriously and said, "There's something on the corner of your mouth." "Huh? What is it?" Tianna believed him and immediately reached out to clean it, but she did not touch anything. At this time, Kevin suddenly lowered his head and said, "Let me help you." Tianna was still waiting for Kevin to help her, like a fool. Instead, he kissed her! "Um... you!" Kevin cut off whatever else she was going to say. Tianna would never repeat that same mistake if that first kiss had happened by surprise. "Kevin, this, you!" Tianna struggled and pushed Kevin away. In addition to feeling shocked, she w
As for Kevin, he had long been used to being in the first place, after so many years. His expression looked very calm, as he searched for Tianna's name. He lowered his head and continued to move down the list... Kevin finally saw Tianna's name in tenth place. Tianna had been working very hard after she got transferred to her senior year, Grade 13. However, her results always floated in the middle of the list. This was an incredible breakthrough for her, entering the top ten. "Ah! I'm in tenth place!" Tianna said, surprised. Candy was two positions behind Tiana, which was also the best result she had ever gotten. "Tianna, congratulations! You're in the top ten!" Candy said. Tianna said, "You did pretty well too! Both of us will definitely get better results next time!" "Yes, that's right!" Candy also cheered up. This was the ranking for their overall results. In addition to the overall results, there were individual subject grades an
Candy rubbed her head and said regretfully, "Hmph... I know I am supposed to study, but you were the one who asked me what I wanted. Why did I get criticized for being honest..." Sigrid was amused by Candy's lively expression. She knew very well that both her daughters were exceptionally sensible. "Fine, I was just reminding you. However, I will never break my promise to you." Candy cheered, "That's great! Long live my awesome mom!" Felicia's birthday was coming soon. In addition to the Andrew family celebrating with her, she had also chosen a specific day to invite her friends out for a meal. The people who were attending her birthday party were all Felicia's best friends. In fact, they were almost the same group of people who went on vacation together during the last public holiday. Since they were going to attend her birthday party, they had to prepare gifts for the birthday girl. Kevin knocked on Tianna's door and asked, "Tianna, are you th
"This is a gift from me." "This is mine." Candy, as their representative, gave Felicia the bag they'd bought together, and had intentionally not put it into a gift box either. The branded item had already come with a gift box anyway. Thus, when Felicia saw the huge logo, her eyes lit up and she smiled widely. "Ah, ah, ah! This bag!! I posted it on my Facebook and said that I'd wanted the bag, right?" Felicia cried out in surprise and pounced on it. Candy said proudly, "That's right. I reserved it for half a month before finally getting it. It's your birthday present from the four of us. Do you like it?" "I like it! I like it! I like it very much!" Felicia was over the moon! She took over the bag and looked at it over and over again. It was obvious that she loved it so much that she couldn't put it down for a second. She couldn't wait to carry it on her right away. Felicia held the bag and said, "No way! What if I dirtied my baby? I'm going to t
Candy also calmed down a lot, after seeing that Kenneth had stopped his assault. "Phew!" Candy breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Cleveland, you arrived just in time. Otherwise, I don't know what that crazy pervert would have done!" Candy had survived the ordeal, but she was still clearly shaken. "It's still dangerous for a girl to go to the bathroom alone. Don't ever come here alone again in the future," Cleveland warned. If Cleveland hadn't passed by, who knew what would have happened on that day? Whenever one was outside the bounds of their own home, one had to be more careful. This world was too dangerous. Candy said with a smile, "I know! Thank you, Cleveland! You were so cool just now though, especially with that over-the-shoulder throw. I feel like you are more capable than our school teacher!" He was a hero who saved the maiden in need. The aid of this divine blessing just made Cleveland look taller, and more majestic. It was al
"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
