The supervisor had no idea what to do either.He was so flustered he could not even speak properly. “Mr. Langley, I think… there must be some mistake about this…”“Mistake? I don’t think there was any mistake. You crashed my car. You have to compensate me.”The poised, rich woman who bought the BMW was still unaware of the situation as she continued making a commotion.Finn glanced impassively at her and said, “Madam, our Rolls-Royce has been damaged as well. The repair for this alone would cost millions. Should we discuss this?”The rich woman was taken aback. “You… You were clearly the one who crashed into my car. Any compensation you ask for has nothing to do with me.”Finn replied, “I believe you haven’t signed for the car yet, am I right? What has this got to do with you when you haven’t owned the car? Or are you planning to take up the responsibility for this?”Realization dawned upon the woman when Finn reminded her of this. She quickly waved him off. “No, no. This has no
Nathan still had his arms around Eva’s waist when they left the car dealer. She felt a little shy about this. “Can you please let me go now, Mr. Langley?”He gave her a teasing look when he heard her request and slowly moved his hand away.Nathan could still feel the soft touch of Eva on his fingertips.A dark look flashed in his eyes.Eva felt a little embarrassed about this, but at the thought of him crashing another car because of her, she suppressed that feeling.The look in Nathan’s eyes was impassive. He got into the car after Finn drove it over.Eva got into the back seat with her children as well.That was when she remembered something. “Don't you have work to do in the neighboring city? Why did you appear at the car dealer?”Nathan did not reply, but Finn said on his behalf, “The meeting was canceled.”“Oh, I see.”It did not occur to her that he postponed the meeting in order to give them a lift.They fell into temporary silence inside the car.Eva had no idea wha
First, Mason was powerful. He was handsome and was her ideal type. He was absolutely perfect.Second, Mason and that slut, Eva, were not as close as she thought.Third, Mason had a girlfriend that he did not seem to really care about.All of the above meant that Queenie had a huge chance of becoming Mason’s woman!Queenie was ecstatic. She tried her best to hold herself back as she continued pretending to be a nice, caring lady.Outside the gates of the Lanes' residence, Eva finally arrived with her children.Mason immediately left Queenie behind when he saw her. He went to Eva and asked with a frown, “What’s going on with you? I’ve been calling you all day. Why didn’t you pick up?”Eva was surprised to see him at the Lanes' residence. She reached into her bag for her phone and realized she had dozens of missed calls.She was taken aback and quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Mason. I set the phone to silent mode last night at the hospital because I didn’t want to be disturbed by
While Eva was chatting with her grandfather, Max and Mia were enjoying their food in the dining room.They had been out all afternoon and had missed their mealtime, which was why they were feeling ravenous.Eugene kept reminding them, “Eat slower. Be careful. You wouldn't want to choke."The little ones were getting to know their grandfather better, and their attitudes toward him were friendlier than before.“Thank you, Grandpa.”Mia thanked him sweetly.This cheered up Eugene for some reason.Pamela gritted her teeth quietly when she saw this. She grabbed Eugene and gave him a stern warning in a whisper, “You really think they’re your grandchildren just because they’re calling you ‘Grandpa’? "Don’t forget how Wanda Emerson humiliated you. There’s also your wonderful daughter who brought two rich men to our house to insult us, yet you’re here happily taking care of these two little bastards!”Eugene’s expression turned cold when he heard her words.Pamela took the opportunit
They finally arrived at Cloudy Hills Estate about half an hour later.Mason helped them move the luggage.Eva was in charge of helping Old Mr. Lane into the house.The children held each other’s hands as they followed behind.Old Mr. Lane looked around the villa after they got inside. He heaped praises on it. “This is a pretty nice place.”Eva smiled and said, “We still need more furniture, but there's water and electricity. It’s suitable for us to stay here. The most important thing is the fresh air. I think you’ll like it very much.”Old Mr. Lane was feeling happy.His precious granddaughter wanted to live with him and take good care of him the moment she returned. He was overjoyed about this.Mason put down the luggage and said gently, “I’ve instructed Sean to deliver your luggage and the children’s. He should be here a little later.”“Thank you, Mason.”Eva smiled and nodded as she invited Mason for a seat.A dark look flashed in Mason’s eyes as he asked, “This is a nice
When Eva woke up the next day, Mason was gone.She put in extra effort this morning to make breakfast for the children and Old Mr. Lane. After that, she began to contemplate her future.Eva planned to either find a job or go back to being a florist.There was a big piece of land at the hillside right outside the courtyard of her villa that could be worked on. She could plant some flowers and go into the wholesale business.Eva’s mind ran through all sorts of plans. After making her decision, she turned to look at her children chasing after each other and began thinking about their schooling.She would need to buy a car to send them to school in the morning and pick them up in the evening.At this thought, Eva called the number Nathan had given her the night before.Someone picked up her call very quickly.Eva explained what she was looking for, and the manager told her with ease, “Of course, I can help you. You can come over right now to look at the cars. I promise you that you
This boutique belonged to a famous French brand named ‘Only’. The designs here were the works of well-known designers, including wedding gowns. They were all one-of-a-kind.Mason had made an appointment prior. When they arrived, the ‘bride’ and ‘groom’ were led away by different boutique staff.Eva and the children followed Lucy.When Lucy saw all the wedding gowns that filled the boutique, she felt happy and proud. “Mason and I are finally getting married after being together for so many years.”“Yes, congratulations.”Eva agreed with a smile, but she was actually distracted.It was the dream of every woman to put on a wedding gown.However, Eva would never have a chance to put one on.It made her feel a little sad.Lucy’s expression fell when she saw the look on Eva’s face. She asked coldly, “What’s wrong, Eva? You don’t seem very happy. Your congratulations don’t sound all that sincere to me.”Eva snapped out of it and replied, “It’s not like that. You’re imagining things.
Eva soon let go of this feeling.She had to force herself to be strong. It was time to think about her future.Eva had her grandfather and children by her side, and they were enough for her.However, she had to feed her family, which meant she might not be able to constantly be by their side. She gave this some thought and turned her car around as she headed to a domestic agency. Eva planned to hire a nanny to take professional care of her grandfather and children.The domestic agency she found was highly efficient and very well-known in North City.Eva soon hired a middle-aged lady of about 40 named Yelena Zabinski.She referred to the lady as Yelena.Yelena was not local, so her fee was not too expensive. On top of that, Eva provided her with accommodation.After they were done negotiating, Yelena returned to her home to pack up. After that, she followed Eva back up the hill.When they arrived, Old Mr. Lane was enjoying the sun in the courtyard.Eva approached him with Yele
