Chapter 1001However, Kingsley couldn't sleep and turned his head to quietly gaze at Sherman under the lamp.Her face was beautiful and graceful, which exuded an aura. Her eyelashes were long and gently trembled at this time. Her hand grasped his chest, clinging to him. Under the dim yellow light, this scene was very cozy.His thin lips curved in a sexy smile. Kingsley felt the room was warm and peaceful. His mind and body were in pleasure.But this peaceful and calm scene didn't last long, because the cell phone placed on the bed stand rang. It was Luke's call.The slightly shrill ringing made Sherman's brow wrinkle slightly. Seeing this, Kingsley immediately reached for his phone and muted it.Since Kingsley and Merlin got divorced, Luke hadn't contacted him for a long time. Apparently Luke was angry with him for choosing to divorce.It was already midnight. Why did he call at this time?After hesitating for a moment, Kingsley lifted the covers with his left hand and walk
Chapter 1002Merlin was full of hope at first. But later she slowly stopped having any hope."Do you want to give up for there is no hope?" Kingsley knew her."People have to die sooner or later. I just die earlier than others. I don't want to go through pain again." Merlin didn't care about death."I hope you can receive chemotherapy. Whether it would be successful or not, you should make the last effort."Merlin smiled, but refused to continue the conversation. She said she was sleepy and wanted to rest. Then she hung up the phone.This was the first time for Merlin to hang up on Kingsley....When Billy and Natalie returned to the Day family's villa after watching the movie, it was already late at night. Billy was distracted and always out of his mind. They almost had an accident while he was driving.Natalie finally couldn't stand him. He might want to die, but she did not want to!She asked Billy to get out of the car, and then she drove the car. When they returned home
Chapter 1003Sherman nodded. She didn’t stop him but asked, "How long will you be away?"Kinsley always made Sherman feel secure. He was mature and steady and gave her a sense of security."I don’t know yet. Why don’t you go to Lanechett with me? Now you are on annual leave and you don’t need to work. Come with me and just take it as a trip ..." Kingsley hated to part with Sherman.“Travelling will make me feel tired. It might be physically difficult for me. And I don’t even have a pass for Lanechett. You are going to persuade Merlin to receive medical treatment. But if I go with you, things will only become worse." said Sherman.Merlin was Kingsley's ex-wife, and she loved Kingsley so much. If Sherman went to Lanechett with Kingsley, she might get even more emotional. Sherman wanted to get things worked out through persuasion rather than freak out Merlin.Besides, Luke was also in Lanchett. Sherman thought that she’d better not go there with Kinglsey in case Luke would have a pr
Chapter 1004"Now go upstairs..." Kingsley said seriously.Sherman shook her head, "No!"He left at the cold midnight for her sake, but she wanted to see him off.Kingsley sighed helplessly and said, "Stand in front of the window and watch me leave. It's cold outside."It was indeed very cold, but she was wearing thick clothes. She felt cold the moment she went out, probably because she had just left the room with air conditioning.Sherman went up to hug him, "Be careful. Don't be in a hurry. No matter when you come back, I will be waiting for you at home."Kingsley showed a sexy smile on his thin lips. He had never been in such a good mood. He enjoyed listening to her warm words.Afterwards, he left. Sherman went upstairs and stood in front of the window. She stared at the car which was further away and finally disappeared.She didn't fall asleep. Since he wasn't there, she felt as if something was missing. She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.Two hours later, she f
Chapter 1005"It's true that I don't have a pass for Lanechett, but I've already searched on the Internet. If I take a transit flight through Lanechett to a third country, I can stay in Lanechett for a week."Sherman had already checked this information from the Internet. She could buy a ticket from Santabaca to Meadon and then stay in Lanechett.Grace raised her eyebrows again. She didn't expect Sherman to have searched the Internet quite carefully and found a workable solution. Anyway, they both had nothing to do, so they planned to invite Summer out to dinner.Summer was still at home and needed some time to breastfeed her baby. So, Sherman and Grace left Summer's villa first.Grace wanted to eat hot pot, and Sherman agreed. It had been a long time since they had eaten hot pot.They picked a table near the window and sat down. Grace ordered very spicy hot pot soup and a lot of ingredients.Summer arrived half an hour later, holding her baby boy in her arm and her little girl
Chapter 1006Sherman didn't plan to bring a suitcase with her. She didn't like dragging a heavy suitcase. She didn't feel the need to bring any clothes. Winter clothes were too heavy. She could buy some in Lanechett. In the afternoon, Kingsley called her and said he had to stay in Lanechett for two more days, and that he couldn't go back tonight. Sherman didn't tell him she was going to Lanechett. She wanted to give him a surprise. Were people in love always so silly? Kingsley told her he missed her very much and asked her to turn on the camera so they can talk through video telephone. Sherman was having dinner. With the camera on, she felt tensed up under the man's burning gaze. She couldn't eat her dinner easily. She wanted to turn off the camera. Kingsley forbade her. He hadn't seen her all day. Now, finally, he could see her cute face on the video. His eyes were so tender. "Could you stop staring at me? I can't eat food…" His g
Chapter 1007Natalie's fingertips clenched into her palms. Was she stewing in her own juice? She had been pretending to be a tolerant woman so well that Billy could only accept her gentle, understanding, and considerate side. "You've always had a mild temper. Perhaps these days you are a bit irritable. But remember, I can accept and put up with your tantrums only on an occasional basis. Don't be like this all the time. You need to collect yourself…" Moriah walked downstairs. She wanted to move some potted plants in the garden, so she called Natalie to help her. She always cherished those flowers. She wouldn't let the maids to move them. Seeing that Natalie was free, she asked her to help. And frankly, she wanted to use this opportunity to quell Natalie's temper. There were many maids in the house. However, Moriah asked her to do it. Natalie knew that Moriah was doing it on purpose. She had not yet recovered from her previous anger, and now Moriah was asking her to
Chapter 1008The woman shook her head and looked around. She asked, "Is there a cafe or a restaurant nearby?" "There's a cafe across the street. It's a nice place." Looking around, Sherman said. She looked peaceful and calm. She was neither humble nor arrogant. She didn't pander to them, nor was she behaving intimately with them. She didn't want anything from them, so she was calm and peaceful. Kingsley's parents looked at each other, and then they looked at Sherman again. They nodded in agreement. The café was very close, within a few steps. They got into the café. Sherman handed the menus to them and asked them to order their drinks. The couple ordered two cups of coffee, and Sherman ordered a glass of milk. Kingsley's mother spoke first, "Ms. Holmes, may I ask how long you and Kingsley have been together?" "About four months." Sherman replied. Her voice was light but polite. "Then, in four months, how much you know about Kingsley?" Kingsley's mother a
