It was Joey.Previously, she kept pestering Jeremy to accompany her in adopting a child from overseas. However, the child still did not have an official name. Lately, she was not interested in taking care of the child herself and has left it to the nanny to handle all day long. Mostly, she was too lazy to take care of the child!This child used to have some value for her as a major excuse to cling to Jeremy and briefly hold his attention. But things are different now. Jeremy already knows that Corinne is carrying his child, so he won't care about this adopted child without a blood relationship. Thus, this child has become a burden, with no utility or value left. Anya never truly loved this child, aside from considering it as a tool for her benefit. She never had any genuine affection for the child.All the tenderness and maternal gestures she displayed toward the child in the past were only an act put on for Jeremy! When there was nobody around, she could not be bothered to preten

Anya only hesitated for a moment before quickly releasing her grip on the child's hand. She remained calm and discreetly covered the red marks on Joey's body that she caused, then gently pulled him closer to her embrace, soothingly saying, "Don't cry, don't cry, Mommy is here! Joey, don't cry, everything is fine!"Faced with the sudden change in his mother's emotions, Joey's crying subsided slightly, but he still felt very confused about what he did wrong.Lucas approached, his clear and thoughtful eyes filled with doubt. "Anya, what happened? Why is the child crying like this?"Anya looked up, her expression innocent and harmless. "Brother, you're back! It's, it's nothing. Joey accidentally fell and hurt himself just now. I was comforting him."The perplexity between Lucas's eyebrows dissipated, and he gently touched Joey's head. "A real man should be strong. You can't cry over a little bump or scratch!"Joey's face was tear-stained as he looked up at his uncle. With his limited

In broad daylight, are they not supposed to be sleeping?...Inside the room.Corinne stood in the center of the room, aimlessly looking around. This room was Jeremy's bedroom, the same room they used as their fake marriage bedroom before.The furnishings in the room appeared exactly as they did before she left, without any changes. However, her mindset was different upon returning.On the side, Jeremy's face showed no emotion as he coldly watched her, commanding, "You smell like disinfectant. Go take a shower and change your clothes!"Corinne snapped back to reality, lowering her head to examine her attire. She lifted her arm and sniffed her sleeve, indeed detecting the scent of hospital disinfectant.When she was at the hospital earlier, she already entered the operating room wearing a surgical gown provided by the nurse. Although she was quickly carried out of the operating room by this man, she did not have a chance to change back into her clothes, and the smell of disinfe

Corinne faced the provocative gaze of the man, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and her heart suddenly fell into chaos. She, who was always eloquent and persuasive, suddenly did not know what to say."Mister Jeremy, you, you need to leave quickly!"She just wanted to drive him away and pointed her finger at the door of the bathroom.Due to her excited gesture, the man's gaze shifted downward, narrowing his eyes. That subtle look in his eyes was cunning like a wolf.Corinne suddenly realized that in her excitement, she did not forget to cover her chest. Embarrassed, she let out a scream, curled up into a ball, and hugged her knees tightly!"Jeremy Holden! You shameless person!"The little girl rarely called him by his full name so directly. It seemed that she was truly angry.However, the man laughed, amused by her confused and angry appearance.He raised his hand and with his rough fingertips, pinched her pointed chin, lifting her blushing little face. "I still prefer hearing

The man's stern gaze resembled that of someone scolding a careless child as he disdainfully lectured, "You haven't even washed the foam out of your hair properly, and you're in such a hurry to go out!"Corinne paused for a moment, remembering that she fell asleep in the bathtub while washing her hair and did not rinse it off. She pouted and issued her ultimatum, "If you don't go out, how am I supposed to wash?"Jeremy did not waste time on idle talk. He reached out and grabbed the showerhead, half-commanding, "Close your eyes."Corinne hesitated. Why should she close her eyes? Could this man be planning to help her wash her hair? Would he be so attentive?"What are you staring at? Close your eyes!" the man commanded again.Annoyed by his reprimand, Corinne felt displeased but obediently closed her eyes.Fine, she would endure this momentary calm and not challenge this man!Otherwise, he might act without principles and take away her bath towel!Seeing her obediently close her

"I have a small share in the Newmoon Group."She spoke cautiously.Jeremy looked at her with a scrutinizing gaze, a small share, or a substantial one?After discovering that Corinne and Aaron were living together, he sent Tommy to investigate the background of the Newmoon Group.Newmoon Group had a clean background and started from scratch. It was the most eye-catching rising star among domestic enterprises. Within a few years, it rapidly rose and was almost on par with the major family-owned conglomerates in the Capital. Its strength should not be underestimated.However, their President, Xante, and Vice President, Aaron, were not the true owners of Newmoon. 60 percent of the shares were held by a mysterious major shareholder who never appeared in public.According to the investigation, that elusive major shareholder was a young girl.He long knew that Corinne was not as simple as she appeared. Now, learning that she held the largest share of Newmoon Group in her hands, he did

The man threw the shower head casually, held her wet little head with both hands, and sat on the edge of the bath, leaning over and getting closer, his deep voice carrying some fatal temptation."You can carry me, it's not difficult. You just need to push me lightly, and I will turn around by myself."The distance between the two suddenly drew too close, Corinne was stunned, and her breathing was stagnant.How the kiss happened, she did not even know.Corinne only knew that her brain was humming, and it was all messed up.In both ears, I could only hear the sound of rushing water and the man's rapid and steady breathing.She felt as if she was about to be swallowed into a black hole, and she was powerless to resist, as the unbearable heat surrounded her.Originally, the water in the bath was already cold, but now the water is hot because the faucet was turned on by the man long ago, and the hot water was slowly pouring out, and the drain below was also discharging the cold water

Jeremy was stunned, the fire that was forcibly extinguished just now suddenly ignited again.The corners of the man's lips were slightly drawn, and he stared deeply at the little girl under him, "Are you inviting me in, Miss Corinne?"At such a moment, the man still wants to tease her!Corinne was a little angry, it only took a moment to turn from emotional to angry!She wrinkled her small face, let go of the little hand that was holding onto the man's clothes, and pushed him away, "I didn't! Go away! Leave me alone!"At this moment, she is very cute, like a little daughter-in-law who is having a tantrum with her husband.She was no longer as indifferent to everything as she used to be. She no longer remains unruffled by favor or humiliation. Everything was just a performance to please him, devoid of any genuine emotions.The man liked her like this, so he pressed the little guy's naughty little hands, stopped fighting with her, and coaxed, "You little rascal, I'm happy to be in

Sherman could not help but feel fearful when he recalled the incident.Rita gently smoothed his furrowed brow. "I knew you'd come to rescue me, just like all the times you did. I love you, Sherman."Previously, Rita confessed her love to him when she was groggy. At this moment, however, she was clearly awake, even sporting a faint smile on her face as she confessed.Sherman immediately blushed. "I love you, too."Rita did not stay long in the hospital; she quickly returned to the Parr family's mansion. Just as Sherman's grandparents had said, Rita did not have any major injuries, so there was no need for her to stay in the hospital that long. In fact, she might even recover faster emotionally under the care at home.Not once did Sherman bring up Rita's job, but she surprisingly resigned from New Capital Times on her own accord. It would be difficult for her to investigate cases with her current condition; not to mention Sherman had handed over the evidence to the police. The polic

"Sherman, I like you. I love you," Rita finally confessed.Sherman, deeply pained, pulled Rita into his arms. "This is all my fault. I should've looked for you quicker. I've never blamed you. All I want is to see you smile. It's enough for me as long as you're willing to let me stay by your side."You don't have to confess to me. I know it's hard for you to do that because of your family. I've seen the way they've treated you, and…"The bodyguards who had barged in with Sherman felt a bit awkward to see their company president in tears. However, the priority was to get Rita to the hospital for a check-up. Being tied up for hours could cause circulation issues, and it could be dangerous if her limbs did not regain feelings soon.In the end, they got the bravest among them to convince Sherman to let them take Rita to the hospital. Instead of letting them do it, Sherman wiped away his tears and, with ease, lifted Rita as if she was as light as a feather.Fortunately, after the hospit

With that, Karen left without looking back. She was carrying Vince's baby in her womb, so how could she pin all her hopes on Sadie? Since Sadie was obviously unruly, she would have to rely on her son.'Sadie can spend the rest of her life with Esmond since she likes him so much. God knows it had been exhausting enough to raise her. Plus, it's only fair for Esmond to take care of her since I've done my part taking care of her until now,' thought Karen.Meanwhile, the only consolation for Sherman was that Esmond did not try to put up a fight. It seemed that he still cared about his daughter Sadie.Sherman led his men to a dilapidated house. Esmond had been cautious enough to choose a rundown house situated at the end of a village.When Sherman barged in, he found Rita lying on the floor while Esmond's men ignored her. Esmond's men had followed his orders, and since he did not instruct them to do anything to Rita, they left her well alone.Before the men could react, they were surrou

Karen cried and silently knelt by Sadie's side without trying to defend herself. Sadie, on the other hand, feebly tried to explain herself. Alas. Vince refused to listen.There had been many occasions before when he had chosen to believe Karen and Sadie, but at this moment, he realized he had been terribly wrong to do that.Rita used to be so kind, understanding, and well-behaved. However, ever since Karen and Sadie moved in, Vince felt like his daughter had become manipulative, always trying to compete for attention, and stirring up jealousy in front of him.Unfortunately, it took Rita's disappearance to make Vince realize that Rita was not trying to compete for attention. All Rita wanted from him was to treat her the same as Sadie.Vince used to think that Rita should give in to Sadie more since Sadie was younger, too."Why don't you go live with your biological father since you prefer him so much? I never want to see you show your face around here anymore! As for your mother, s

Sadie was so anxious that she wanted to jump out. "Mom, don't tell me you fell for it! Why did you call Esmond? Now they all know where Rita is. You've ruined everything, again! What were you thinking?"Karen could not care less. She cried and slapped Sadie. "You nearly scared me to death! What would I do if something happened to you? I didn't raise you just to watch you die. I told you not to meet up with Esmond, so why did you secretly meet up with him? How can you ask him to get rid of Rita?"Are you out of your mind? All I want is for us to live out the rest of our lives peacefully, so why didn't you listen to me?!"Sadie was furious. Karen had stopped trying to get rid of Rita ever since she got pregnant, so how could Sadie not be angry? Rita was like a thorn in her side, and Sadie would never be happy unless Rita was dead."Don't you know I like Sherman? How could you ask me to do nothing when Rita has stolen him from me?! I was the one who liked him first. It's either Rita g

Karen wanted so badly to slap Esmond through the phone.'What good are his pompous words now? We wouldn't be in this mess now if he hadn't hit me back then! What's more, he's saying he's doing this for Sadie. But has he ever thought of what would happen to me and Sadie if he got rid of Rita? Rita's the heiress of the Russell family. Not to mention, she's married to Sherman, so that makes her owner of Parr Group too! What makes Esmond think he can get rid of Rita so easily?'Karen's breath was ragged as she said, "If you don't believe me, just listen to your daughter's screams. I can't save her now; you will literally decide her fate! Plus, I'm pregnant with Vince's baby, so even if I lose Sadie, I still have a kid—which is more than what I can say about you!"Sherman could not help but be impressed by Karen a little. Even in this dire situation, she did not forget to express her heartfelt feelings to Vince, letting him know that she was always on his side. It was certainly not an ea

"Sherman raised an eyebrow. "Don't worry, I'm sure it's just a minor injury, maybe just a finger. There shouldn't be any major issues. A sprained joint takes only a hundred days to heal, and it might take her even less time to heal if you take very good care of her while she's recuperating."Karen's heart ached upon hearing that. She lunged toward Sherman, wanting to hit him, but the bodyguards stopped her before she could get close.Vince, still worried, held Karen tightly beside him. "Calm down. I'm sure Sadie will come out unharmed if Rita's kidnapping has nothing to do with her. But if it does, then you should know very well that…"Vince's voice dropped an octave. He could not believe his daughter's disappearance had anything to do with his stepdaughter. However, he was not utterly naive.He continued, "How could a girl like her take Rita away? Even the car window was smashed. Others must've been involved. Does her biological father have anything to do with it?"Sherman nodded

"Yes, it's true I met up with my biological father, but it was just a one-time thing. I don't want to go back to him at all! Otherwise, I would've done it ages ago. Dad, I'm really grateful to you for taking me in and looking after me all these years. That's why I feel like you're my real father, even more real than those who share the same blood."How could you unjustly accuse me and Mom like that? Sherman is the one spouting nonsense here. He's trying to push all the blame onto us. Dad, you have to wake up and see the truth!"Karen nodded along, but her heart was racing. 'When did Sadie meet Esmond? How did Sherman know when I don't even know? Seems like Sadie does have something to do with Rita's kidnapping. I have to settle things and get Sherman out of here.'Karen never had the thought of rekindling her relationship with Esmond. The only thing she wanted then was to peacefully give birth to her son. Everything in the Russell family would eventually go to her son, and she would

Sherman detested people pointing their fingers at him when they spoke. He stood up slowly, towering over Vince instantly."You claim to be Rita's father, yet if I were you, I'd choose to shut up and stand aside. I can't believe you're scolding me for threatening Sadie when she's not even your real daughter!"Look at her guilty expression; it's clear she's involved. If you don't believe me, use your brain a little. No wonder Russell Group is declining under your leadership. It's only a matter of time before the company goes completely bankrupt!"Sherman showed no mercy, causing Vince to retreat with every word. Vince clutched his chest, struggling for breath.Karen, despite her weakness, stepped forward to support him. "How could you speak to your father-in-law like this? What has Sadie done to offend you? She has nothing but admiration for you. Plus, she's just a child. How could you treat her like this?"She went on and on, but Sherman stood his ground. Meanwhile, the burly bodyg
