Why was Eugene suddenly giving Eva the Victorian-era moon flask?What did that slut do to deserve it?Pamela was more mature due to experience and did not lose her temper, but it was different with Queenie. She immediately went forward and grabbed the moon flask.“I don’t agree to this, Dad!”She said shrilly to Eugene, “Eva might not like this even if you give it to her. It'd just be a waste of your effort. Why not give it to me since she won’t appreciate your gesture?”Queenie had been eyeing this moon flask for a long time!Eugene had always said that it was of no use to her. All she could do with it was to place it in her bedroom after she got married. This was worth hundreds of thousands, and Eugene could not bear to part with it.However, he was giving it to that slut, Eva, with just a simple word.Was it all because that slut was now Nathan Langley’s wife?“Do you really think she’ll acknowledge you just because you keep fawning over her? Don’t forget how she treated yo
Queenie anxiously handed over her blood sample to the ob-gyn at Central Hospital.She relaxed only after the doctor took her blood sample away.“Do you need to be so anxious?”Flora pouted next to her. “You can just get a urine test for this. Why would you need to do an HCG blood test? Why do you need such a confirmation? Is Mason hoping you’d get pregnant?”“He must be. There are plenty of CEOs who love getting married after they get the woman pregnant. They want an heir first before marrying the woman.”Tonya patted Queenie teasingly on the shoulder. “Our Queenie is going to be a wife from an influential family. Don’t forget to take care of us once you’re married, Queenie.” They began talking about this excitedly, but Queenie could not take in a word.She broke out in a cold sweat while waiting for the doctor’s result.15 minutes later, her blood results came out. Queenie was pregnant.When she saw the words in her medical report, she pressed her hand against her chest and
Everyone felt cold in their seats as Queenie gently caressed her tummy.After that, she looked up at Mason with a soft expression on her face.“Are you happy, Mason? I’m having your baby.”“That’s impossible.”Mason stared back at her. The look in his eyes was frighteningly dark. “What are you talking about?”“It’s true!”Queenie was upset as she exclaimed this. She took out a medical report from her bag and gave it to him. “I’m really pregnant. I even went to the hospital to confirm it. Look, here’s the report.When she gave Mason the report, he snatched it over with widened eyes.It was a report for a blood test.He quickly scanned the line for the HCG blood test and saw the numbers and the doctor’s result. Mason felt dizzy.Queenie was really pregnant!After quickly showing her pregnancy test to Mason, Queenie looked happy. “I even did a urine test because I was worried it might not be accurate, Mason. Look, two red lines.”The blood test and urine test proved only one t
Queenie did not even think twice as she hurried home to Lane Residence.Pamela was trimming the plants in the garden when Queenie approached her in a panic. “Mom, I’m pregnant with Mason’s baby, but he doesn’t want it.”What?The scissors in Pamela’s hand fell. She did not pick them up and just stared straight at Queenie.“What happened?”Queenie quickly told her what had happened.Pamela was stunned to learn about Mason’s attitude about this.What did he mean by this? Was he trying to shirk responsibility?He should not do this. Pamela had to see Eugene about this!Pamela pulled herself together and pulled Queenie into the study with her. Eugene was busy going through his documents when she quickly told him about what happened.“You have to do something about this, Eugene.”She held onto Queenie pitifully. “Queenie’s your daughter too. Now that she’s pregnant, we have to get Mr. Young to decide on their wedding date.”“You’re right.”Eugene laughed happily. “Good girl. Yo
Nathan stood up as well when he saw Eva getting up to leave.Eugene got flustered and quickly tried to convince them to stay.“You don’t need to leave so early. We’ve already prepared lunch for you. I’ve even gotten the kitchen to prepare Evie’s favorite ribs.”Ribs?Eva smiled. “It’s fine. I need to go home and work on my flowers, and Nathan has to get back to work. You should go ahead and eat. You’re a family, after all. There's no need to be so formal with each other.”She sounded quite cheerful as she emphasized the word ‘family’. Mason’s expression fell.Was she saying that to him on purpose?Before he could think of what to reply to her, Eva and Nathan left.Eugene did not insist on them staying and got up to walk them out.Queenie, Pamela, and Mason were left in the living room. They watched as Eva and Nathan left. There was a cold but gleeful look in Queenie’s eye.That slut, Eva, deserved this for two-timing others.Eva had this coming!…Nathan and Eva were seate
Eva finally turned to look at Tyler unhappily after Raven accepted the flowers from him.“Pay up.”“Alright. Here’s the payment.”Tyler smiled and took his phone out. “I’ll transfer the money to you. How much is this bouquet?”“50,000.”Eva purposely charged him higher, thinking that it would force him to back off. However, he continued smiling without batting an eye as he transferred the money to her.He even knew her personal account number.Eva felt a little defeated as she turned to walk away.Tyler called out to her.“Miss Lane, Aunt Wanda wants you to take over the management of Lane Enterprise.”What?Eva turned to look at him brusquely. There was a sneer on her face. “Is there something wrong with her? Why would I want to take over Lane Enterprise?”“I have no idea.”Tyler shrugged. “I’m just here to pass the message. All you need to do is follow orders. Otherwise, I have no idea what will happen next.”Eva turned away in disdain.That woman wanted to control eve
Eva was working on the freshly bloomed Lady Slipper Orchids in Cloudy Hills Estate.Her flowers had been growing well, and her orders were beginning to pile up. She took every order seriously, no matter how big or small.Eva’s reputation had also begun to grow.She had gradually forgotten about the message Wanda had passed to her via Tyler.Eva had no interest in taking over Lane Enterprise.All she wanted was to live a simple, happy life and watch her children grow up while expanding her flower business. This was enough to make her happy.However, Eva had no idea that her peaceful life was about to be disrupted.Even though Eva did nothing, it did not mean that the other party would stay quiet as well.In the CEO’s office of Lane Enterprise, Eugene was going through some documents and discussing the next step of their plan with his assistant and secretary.“Mr. Lane, I think our project has reached a mature stage. Langley Corporation’s request for the modification isn’t a big
It was 7:30 am on a weekend morning and Thriving Dragon Bay was already bustling with life.Eva helped Mia wash up and put her in a little dress. Nathan and Max were already seated at the table and waiting for breakfast. Mrs. Wilson had already served breakfast by the time Eva and Mia got downstairs.The fragrant smell of butter on toast woke up the still drowsy Mia.“Wow! Butter on toast!”She lunged at her breakfast and chomped on the toast. Max quickly pushed over a glass of milk at her when he saw her gobble down her breakfast.“Thank you, Max.”Mia smiled while thanking him, and she continued enjoying her food.Eva felt slight relief to see how lively her children were.Today was the day Max was taking part in the qualifying rounds for the national tournament.He had been doing well for the past half a month at UN Club. Felix and Nathan were both willing for him to try out at the national tournament. There was a solo tournament before the league tournament. Anyone who w
