“I’m okay to be interviewed, but my wife has to be included.”The reporter was taken aback to hear Nathan say that. The reporter smiled and agreed. “Sure. It’s our honor to be interviewing Mrs. Langley as well.”It took just a few words for the interview to be decided. It was only after they had adjusted the camera that Eva realized what just happened.Was she about to be interviewed too?This should not happen.Eva shook her head nervously. “I can’t do it. You should accept the interview on your own, Nathan.”“Don’t be nervous.”Nathan rubbed her head gently. He looked at her adoringly. “I’m right here with you.”He sounded exceptionally gentle, catching Eva by surprise. She bit her lip and had no idea what to say. The children ran toward her with big smiles on their faces.Mia stood on tip-toe and kissed her hand.“You should be interviewed together, Mommy and Daddy. You’ll be on television. It makes me happy to see that.”Max came over and pulled on Eva’s other hand. “Don
When Eva refused to take the medication, Yelena put it away.Eva was relieved. She was pregnant, and this medication might affect the baby. Even though she had no idea what to think about the baby, she did not want to do anything irresponsible.Yelena had put out the breakfast by the time Nathan got downstairs. The children had already eaten, and only Eva would be eating with him.Nathan poured her a glass of milk and asked gently, “Will you be alright without the medication?”She could not hold her liquor well, and any slight drinking would give her a headache.It was better to pay more attention after she had been drinking.“I’m fine.”Eva lowered her head to eat and did not say anything else.After breakfast, Nathan drove to his office to get busy while the children went to revise their homework. Eva and Yelena went to check the flower fields.The Pygmy Water Lilies were about to bloom, and Eva had to keep a close eye on them.After she was done with her work. Sophia cam
It was 3:30 pm when Finn arrived at Cloudy Hills Estate.When he saw Eva being busy in the fields, he lowered her head at her respectfully. “Mrs. Langley.”“You’re here.”Eva got Yelena to serve him some tea. “Is there anything you need?”“I’m here to deliver the amended contract.”Finn said while taking the cup of tea from Yelena. He nodded gratefully at her.Yelena would make him tea every time he came to Cloudy Hills Estate, and it tasted good.He delivered the documents to Eva.Eva picked up the documents curiously to read and saw that there was a change in the contract for the shares of Lane Enterprise.Lane Enterprise would be hers once she signed the contract.She frowned slightly and began to look serious.Lane Enterprise.Pamela and Queenie had done everything they could to stop her from getting the company shares, but Lane Enterprise was going to belong to her completely.How funny life was.Eva spaced out slightly when she saw the documents in front of her.Sh
Eva quickly put the glass down and began retching again.She felt awful.Once she finally stopped, Eva felt much more comfortable. She picked up the glass to gargle again.Eva looked at her pale face and gently brushed through her hair.This was morning sickness.However, she had just found out she was pregnant. This was all a little too early.After Eva cleaned herself up, Yelena could not help asking worriedly, “Should I get you a doctor, Mrs. Langley?”“It’s fine.”Eva walked to the sofa and fell onto it. “Just get me a glass of milk.”She did not want to see a doctor. Yelena quickly poured her a glass of milk and quietly observed Eva’s face. She remembered what had caused Eva’s retching and could not help smiling.“Are you pregnant, Mrs. Langley?”Eva raised an eyebrow.Yelena was an older woman who had life experience. She could tell with one look.“Yes.”She nodded heavily and gently reminded Yelena, “Please don’t tell anyone about this.”“I understand.”Yelena
Nathan drove Eva and the children back to Langley Manor at 6:30 pm.Old Mr. Langley, Robert, and Rebecca were seated on the sofa and chatting. When they saw Nathan and his family arrive, they smiled and welcomed them.Robert carried Max happily in his arms.“Let me have a look. Has my grandson gotten taller?” “Of course, I have!”Max laughed and hugged Robert’s arm. “Mia has grown taller too, Grandpa. Look.”He turned to look, but Mia had already run to hug Old Mr. Langley.“I missed you so much, Great-grandpa.”Her voice was sweet as sugar, and Old Mr. Langley smiled so much that his eyes creased. He rubbed her head gently and kept nodding.There were snacks and sweets on the table. Rebecca smiled gently as she gave them to the children.Nathan and Eva smiled as they sat at the side.Everyone began chatting happily. Max was telling Robert about his exciting moment during the national tournament and how he had won the championship. His big eyes shone when he talked about it
The living room of Lane Residence was in a mess. Queenie was rubbing her eyes on the sofa, and her cheeks were tear-stained. It was clear that she had been cryingPamela’s hair was in a mess, and her clothes were skewed. A lone slipper was lying at the side of the floor. Pamela looked exactly like an angry shrew as she stared red-eyed at Eugene.“Why didn’t you just sell us off as well, Eugene?”Her voice was hoarse, and when she saw Eugene staying quiet, she ran forward and grabbed him by the collar. She shook him violently. “Give me back my money and my shares! Give them back to me!”No matter how much she grabbed him, Eugene continued staying silent as he let her vent it all out on him.After telling her the truth about Lane Enterprise, Pamela went crazy. She kept smashing things to vent her anger and kept yelling at him. She was almost tearing him apart.However, what could he do about it?His debts were cleared with Nathan’s help, and the company’s shares no longer belonged
“Are you leaving?”Mason quickly tried to stop her when he heard that. “Come with me, Eva. I have something to say to you.”“There’s nothing I have to say to you.”Eva said coldly and got out of the car to help Sophia with the barricade.Sophia smiled weakly when she saw Eva come over. “This barricade is really heavy, Eva. I can't move it on my own.”“It’s alright. We can do it together.”Eva and Sophia bent over to move the heavy barricade. Mason’s face fell when he saw both of them ignoring him.That slut!Eva must be ignoring him because he had lost everything and was no longer useful to her!He clenched his teeth and walked behind them coldly. He hit Sophia hard on the back of her head.Mason used brute force. Sophia fell unconscious after feeling a pain in her back.She fell limply to the ground, and Eva turned to look at him in surprise. She was shocked when she saw the grim look on Mason’s face.Mason was crazy!Eva turned away immediately in fear. She wanted to get
Meanwhile, on the wide road, the passed-out Sophia was woken up by passersby.“Are you alright, Miss? Do you need to go to the hospital?”The voice of the passersby helped Sophia get her thoughts straight. She rubbed the back of her head, which was throbbing with pain, and immediately sobered up.“Eva!”She looked around the car in a panic and did not see Eva. Mason and his car were gone, and she was the only one left.Sophia spotted Eva’s smashed-up phone lying quietly on the ground not far away.Did Mason take her?Sophia’s eyes widened at this frightening thought.She quickly took out her phone. Fortunately, it was still intact.Sophia took a deep breath and made sure she was calm before she called Finn’s number.The call had just gotten through when Sophia immediately broke out crying. “This is terrible, Mr. Miller! Eva was taken away by Mason Young!”Finn was dumbstruck when he heard this news. He was stunned for a few seconds before quickly asking about the details of
