Chapter 1222Early the next morning.When Luke came out of the bedroom, Brad's little face lit up, as bright as the sunshine.The three of them were eating breakfast. Brad nervously looked at Luke and then at Eileen. "Mom, today is my birthday. Will dad go out with us?"He was still young and had never been closer to Luke. He was innately in awe of his dad."No. He has a lot of things to do. Hurry up and eat. I'll take you out later," Eileen announced without asking for Luke's opinion.He had never stayed with Brad on his birthday. When he didn't forget it, he would have the maid send over cake and gifts.She wasn't the woman he loved, and Brad wasn't the child he wanted.Therefore, even in front of him, she didn't feel she said anything wrong.Brad's bright eyes dimmed. He grunted and sipped the porridge.Luke frowned at the woman beside him, saying unhappily, "Since when can you make decisions for me? Can't you see me sitting here?""So are you going to accompany him today
Chapter 1223She had said so. If Eileen refused, it would be very embarrassing.Eileen answered, "No."Nina smiled brightly. "Thank you."As a result, the three-person trip turned into a four-person trip.Along the way, Nina and Luke walked side by side.The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. They were a joy to behold, talking and laughing.Eileen held Brad's hand, walking behind them.Many people were looking at them. Their eyes were full of admiration when falling on the woman and man walking ahead, but they gave Eileen strange looks. Brad, who was excited at first, turned downcast.Since this woman came, Dad hadn't spoken to him or Mom.Suddenly, Luke stopped, turned around, and beckoned to Brad.Brad immediately let go of Eileen's hand, running over."Do you want to ride a flying chair?" Luke asked.Brad nodded repeatedly.He then turned to look at Eileen.She waved her hand. "Just play yourselves. I can't ride it now. I'll just wait here."Luke indiffe
Chapter 1224Although people’s gaze around was embarrassing, they didn't make Eileen feel sad. But this sentence pierced her heart.In order to conceal her sadness, she lowered her head and looked at the ground. "I can't walk fast, so I can't play. I'll wait for you in the cafe.""You ask me to come to the amusement park. But now you are the one who wants to leave. You trick me on purpose, don't you?"Luke looked unhappy and his tone was icy.Eileen answered in a louder voice. "How can I play with you? I’m a cripple. You three can go to play. I’m only your burden."Luke frowned. His unhappiness dissipated a little, and he pulled her wrist and brought her forward.Eileen was taken aback.She raised her head and looked at his sturdy and broad back.Luke was pulling her to walk forward.Eileen couldn't describe her feelings. Compared to just now, she felt warmer, as the sharp pain was gradually dissipating.For a person like her, she would feel very happy when others gave her a
Chapter 1225"You’re daydreaming!""You don’t want to apologize? Call the police to take him away!"Apologize?This was the funniest word Luke had heard in the past thirty years!With his cold gaze falling on these people, he took out his phone and called the manager of the amusement park directly. "Come here as fast as you can!"The manager rushed here after answering the call.Several staff members showed solidarity. "He beat her for no reason and refused to apologize. So, the Ferris wheel can't be started."Unexpectedly, the manager didn't even look at them, but looked at Luke respectfully. "Mr. Bennington.""How dare you allow such people to work as staff members in my amusement park? They make me sick. How dare you recruit them to get salaries from me?"When Luke scolded others, he was merciless and his words were harsh. "Immediately fire them!"The manager was so frightened that he sweated all the time. He instantly paid the people and asked them to leave."It is he w
Chapter 1226The Ferris wheel rose to a very high point, at which one found everything was so small when looking down.Eileen gave a smile.Maybe it was too high, and Brad felt a little nervous.Luke's shirt was rolled up. Without a word, he put his arm around Brad’s waist.Little by little, the Ferris wheel gradually climbed upwards.Eileen turned around and looked out of the Ferris wheel.As the sun set, the afterglow fell on every corner of the city.The sunset was beautiful. Sitting on the highest point of the Ferris wheel, one could appreciate the panorama of Lanechett at dusk.Eileen was totally gripped by the view.Brad grabbed Luke's arm, with an excited expression on his face.Luke’s anger was fading away, and he drank all the mineral water.Looking at the opposite side inadvertently, he found Eileen’s expression was satisfied, happy, and peaceful. She looked serene and beautiful.He raised his lips.At this time, she looked a little pleasing to the eye, not as d
Chapter 1227Luke asked a staff worker to give him a fishing rod and sat down by the lake.His hobby was also fishing, the same as Kingsley’s. But he hadn't fished for more than a year.Nina also asked for a fishing rod.They two sat side by side.Eileen and Brad sat behind them.Patience and quietness were important in fishing. No one spoke, and it was so quiet.Although Brad was a child, he was very patient.He lay on Eileen's lap and gazed at the lake.With a cold wind, he was sneezing and rubbing his nose with his little hand.Suddenly, Luke took off his suit jacket and handed it to Eileen.Then he turned around again blankly.When feeling the hot temperature of the jacket, Eileen felt so warm. ‘It turns out that Luke can also be a good father.’‘As long as he wants, he can be a father as good as Kingsley.’Lying on her lap, Brad said in a low voice, "Mom, it's Dad's jacket!"Eileen nodded.She opened the jacket and wrapped Brad's small body inside.He was too sm
Chapter 1228Eileen lurched to her feet and fell to the ground.Luke kept walking toward the lake. When he stepped into the lake, the feeling of coldness and nausea immediately surrounded him.Luke suddenly felt as if he was being strangled and unable to breathe.But Luke did not stop and continued to walk towards the depths of the lake.His body was already shaking.As long as Luke decided to do something, he would definitely insist on doing it.After taking a deep breath, Eileen walked over quickly and pushed Luke away with force. Then Eileen jumped into the lake.Nina was shocked.Luke was stunned for a moment after he had steadied himself.Eileen looked at him from the lake and asked, "What fell into the lake?"Luke came to his senses and shouted angrily at her, "Eileen, what the hell are you doing?""What is it? The water is too cold. I can't hold on for long. All you can do now is save my time!"Eileen made up her mind to help Luke.They stared at each other across
Chapter 1229He looked relieved after she found the bracelet. Eileen saw his lips curve up into a gentle smile.She felt a sharp pain in the heart as if a piece of broken glass had sliced into it. In the light, she saw the bracelet clearly. It was engraved with "from Zora to Luke". Suddenly, she understood why he was so furious as if the most important thing in his life was lost when it dropped into the lake. The indescribable bitterness and pain spread through her. She felt she helped her rival in love, though Zora was dead. She knew he couldn't swim and was afraid of water. Thus, the moment she saw him shivering and trying to get into the lake, she didn't want him to suffer and pushed him away. She jumped into the lake to find the bracelet for him, but she didn't expect it to be a gift from Zora. It was understandable that he acted like that. Except for Zora's gifts, whose gifts would he treasure as his life? It was indeed masochistic for her
Chapter 1814Before Jazz came to pick up Essa, his elder brother told him he should give candies if he was blocked out of the door. The big brother got experience in his own wedding years ago. Jazz kept it in his mind. At the moment, under such circumstances, he generously distributed candies to everyone. Jazz was a smart guy! People were happy with the candies. They let him in and stopped making trouble for him. People were just having fun on their wedding day and making the atmosphere livelier. Essa's wedding dress was custom-made by the most famous designer in Paris. Summer had arranged it for her. It looked gorgeous on Essa. The wedding dress had a fishtail, which set off Essa's slender waist even more as if it could be grabbed in one hand. The dress was low-back, showing her fair skin. Under the light, Essa looked amazing! Essa was so beautiful, breathtakingly beautiful! Stepping on her crystal high heels, she walked slowly towards Jazz. The distance wasn't long,
Chapter 1813The neck was Essa's most sensitive spot. She felt itchy if someone touched her there, let alone that Jazz clung tight to there for so long. She could barely stand it. Her body was squirming timidly. "Don't seduce me!" Essa was angry, "I'm not seducing you! Just sleep! But can you not cling to me so tight?" "Why? Are you turned on by me?" Essa was lying with her back to him, her cheeks blushed, and she hissed, "Who is turned on?" ‘What the hell! The man is like a sex machine!’ "Since you are so sure of it, let me check you out." Essa wanted to kill herself, but before she did, she wanted to kill him first! "Are you lying, babe?" Jazz deliberately drawled. "Get away from me! If you don't want to sleep in the guest room, go sleep on the couch! I cannot sleep with you clinging to me so tight!" But Jazz ignored her demand. Essa's whole face had turned red, so red as if it was about to bleed. "Jazz!" "You can be louder. I'm fine with it anyway
Chapter 1812Jazz naturally had no objection because he couldn’t wait to get married. He had always been determined, and as long as he made the decision, he would never change his mind!Now that he had decided to marry her, he must do it!Essa had heard her words. Although she thought it was a little too hasty, she kept silent, giving tacit consent.They were getting married in fifteen days! It was really fast!But because the bridegroom was Jazz, she was not panicked at all. She was calm because cuddling up together with him like this made her feel happy.That night was not easy. Jazz was like a wolf who had been hungry for decades, and he would not let go of the delicious meat that had been put in front of his mouth.They had sex for another whole night. Although Essa was strong, she was no match for a man.Her legs and waist were so weak that she had to support her waist with both hands in order to stand up. She thought Jazz should not have been so horny even if he had hadn'
Chapter 1811Jazz lowered his head slightly and kissed her.Essa could not pretend to be sleeping any longer, so she opened her eyes and pressed her hands against his chest."Morning, baby." He stared at her tenderly and asked, "How did you feel last night? Are you satisfied?"She glared at him, not wanting to speak.But she didn't know her eyes were full of tenderness and love now.After the sex last night, Jazz could not resist such a temptation anymore.He bowed his head, intending to kiss her."Get up! I have to go to work! If you dare to kiss me now, I will definitely beat you up!"Jazz didn't kiss her but shrugged his shoulders.He was not afraid of her threat, but he knew it was her first time last night. He thought he could not ask her to make love again in the morning. Otherwise, she would be too tired.Essa was satisfied to see him give up. She glanced at the time and found she was about to be late, so she didn't want to waste time chatting with him anymore.But w
Chapter 1810"Why are you so sensitive?" Jazz smiled lightly, enjoying her current reaction."You’re talking nonsense! You are hugging me too tight. Back away..." She blushed slightly, keeping twisting her body.She had never had such intimate contact with a man before, so she felt hot all over and acted unnaturally."Do you think this distance is too close? We will be closer…"Essa couldn't take it anymore, so she stretched out her hands, pushed against his chest, and said, "Stop it!""Why? You have to get used to this. We will have more intimate interactions, so you have to get used to..."She felt a little scared about such intimate contact.Jazz pressed his body against hers tightly. The scenery outside was blurry at night, and the two of them were alone in the same room, so it was easy for them to become turned on, and sparks were flying between them.His long fingers began to take off her clothes.Soon, she was naked. Jazz picked her up and placed her on the bed."I'm
Chapter 1809Jazz opened the car door for her with a smile and said, "Baby, have an enjoyable time at work."After finishing speaking, he started the car and stepped on the accelerator, and then, the car disappeared without a trace, leaving Essa standing there in a daze.But she still needed to enter the police station to work. Even if she stood here for two hours, she could not solve the problem. There was no point in evading issues, so she decided to get in. Then, she gritted her teeth and walked in, keeping her eyes looking straight ahead.However, even if she didn’t look at others, others would still look at her. Along the way, many people stared at her.They had not expected Essa to be so open. She had actually done such a thing at the gate of the police station!Essa felt her cheeks were burning, but she still forced a smile and tried to be a thick-skinned person.She was hypnotizing herself.When she got into her office, she felt as if she had been flayed by the gazes
Chapter 1808"A few years. Why did you call him a bastard?""You still care about him? I just want to call him a bastard. Don't be silly. There are few innocent men like me. Think about it! It is cost-effective for you to marry me. You have never been married before, and neither have I. To be honest, with my appearance and status, it was not easy to stay single till now. Don’t you think it's very touching?"Hearing this, Essa was completely speechless."It's not touching at all. Are you sure you’re not impotent? Why are you a virgin till now? As you said, you have enough merits to fascinate others!"Hearing this, Jazz on the other end of the phone became sullen and said, "Are you doubting my potency?"Women’s suspicion was the most intolerable thing to men! How could she doubt his sexual potency? It had hurt his pride!"I didn't doubt it before, but you emphasized it over and over again. It is you that made me feel suspicious..." She took a sip of water. Compared to his exaspe
Chapter 1807Essa had told her that Summer was also from an ordinary family. Seeing she and Mark were so affectionate to each other, she felt relieved and believed that Mark was a good man.It was hard to imagine such a handsome man with a high status would be the same as an ordinary man when he was with his family.On the other side of the table, Essa was putting food on Jazz’s plate, while Jazz was picking out fishbones for her. Both of them had faint smiles on their faces, showing genuine love to each other.Essa’s mother let out a sigh of relief.After dinner, Mark insisted on sending the three of them home. Essa shook her head repeatedly and rejected because there were a lot of taxis outside the hotel."This is our first dinner together, so we must send you home. In this way, we can know where you live…"Although Mark's words were polite, they had an irresistible sense of solemnity.Jazz had wanted to refuse too, but after hearing Mark’s words, he swallowed the words back.
Chapter 1806Jazz walked over and handed her red roses."You're too high-profile!" Essa kneaded her forehead with her hand, feeling a headache."Don't you like it?" Jazz smiled."I like it very much." She took a deep sniff. The roses were exuding a light fragrance, making her mood good."My brother and sister-in-law want to have dinner with you and your family tonight. Do you want to meet them?"Essa blinked, "Didn't we meet before?""Yes, but it's not formal. This time, it will be a formal meeting at the Grande Hotel at eight o'clock in the evening…"Essa rubbed her forehead, then went home, and told her mother about the dinner. Her mother was a little worried. She had only met Jazz before, and Mark was a big shot that she could only see on TV. When he suddenly wanted to meet them, Essa’s mother felt nervous.Essa kept comforting her, saying there would be no problem because Mark was very approachable and easygoing.She then changed her clothes and put on makeup. Later, Jazz
