Chapter 1268Currently, this was how things stood between Eileen and Luke.When she couldn't bear to part from him, he had meant the world to her.All she had wanted to do was stay by his side and watch over him, and she had found it heart-warming even when being teased or cold-shouldered by him.But now, having thought it through, she felt fully relaxed and at ease, and her pain seemed to have been alleviated.Luke felt a surge of anger as he perceived the disregard that Eileen was showing for him.He strode forward and blocked her path. "Are you listening to me?""Does that matter?"That was a response he hadn't bargained for.Now it was Luke's turn to stiffen with incredulity.Never once had she been so frigid to him before.Luke snorted inwardly.'She's getting addicted to acting,' he thought.Eventually he shook the thing in his hand and asked, "Do you want this or not?""No!" she replied unhesitatingly.Then she walked around him and stood beside the bus stop sign,
Chapter 1269From that night on, she didn't love him anymore.Standing there, Luke was still carrying that bag.He frowned, staring somewhat disgustedly at it.He then looked around. The cars and buses were coming and going. There were few cabs in this area.He muttered a curse and called his assistant to drive over.After ten minutes, the assistant came.Seeing Luke carry the dirty bag, the assistant froze.He then quickly got out of the car.He hurriedly took the bag, saying, "Mr. Bennington, please get in the car. I'll throw it."The bag was handed over to the assistant. Luke stepped into the car while seeing the assistant going to the nearby garbage bin with the bag.The assistant somehow reminded him of that woman's back. Luke said, "Come back. Put it into the trunk."The assistant looked down at the soiled bag in confusion.Wasn't this garbage?Why did Mr. Bennington keep it?As they returned to the villa, Brad was eating.He was much better behaved than before, n
Chapter 1270The next morning, Eileen had breakfast and was ready to go to the hospital.As soon as she opened the door, the familiar bag, which she had let go of yesterday, came into view. Why did the bag appear here?Did Luke send it here?It was strange that he didn't throw it away!Last night, she stocked a lot of goods.Now, she could not let them pile up. After all, she paid money for them.She intended to run a stall again in the evening and tried her best to sell out these things.If they really could not sell out, she decided to bargain them away. In a word, this pile of things should be disposed of as soon as possible.At dusk, Eileen took those things back to the place where she had run a stall.This time, she was smarter. She went early to find a good spot.Besides, she was more experienced this time. She had already found a hidden location.If the police came, she could hide there.When she ran a stall for the first time, she was shy and at a loss.Now, how
Chapter 1271"You aren't well-behaved. When did you learn to run away from home? Who taught you that?" She was sullen and her face was full of anger.She thought it was a terrible thing that a kid of eight years old ran away from home."Mom, I just missed you so much."Brad lowered his head and looked at Eileen.After hearing what Brad had said, Eileen became less angry.But her face was still cold.She couldn't indulge him in such a bad habit."I miss you too, but that's no reason for you to run away from home," Eileen said seriously. "Let's go. I'll take you back to the Bennington family's villa.""I don't want to go back to the Bennington family's villa. You neither phoned me nor came to see me. Mom, do you dislike me and don't want me?"Brad kept his mouth closed aggrievedly. His tears almost fell, but he held them back. Eileen was heartbroken.It wasn't that she didn't want Brad to be with her, but that she couldn't do it.If she was healthy, even if she didn't have
Chapter 1272The rims of Brad's eyes were red instantly.But he tried not to cry. He knew that if he cried, his mom would cry too, so he couldn't cry."Mom, will I never see you again?""Yes," Eileen held back the grief in her heart and nodded.Then she squatted down and slowly straightened up Brad's clothes. Stroking his forehead, she looked lovingly at him.There was a lot she wanted to say, but she just said, "You have to listen to Dad."Luke frowned. He couldn't bear such a scene and felt a little irritable.'She's still acting more and more affectionately in this tragic drama.''It will be a waste of her talent if she doesn't become an actress.'He drew a cigarette from its case, held it to his lips and lit it."Whoosh..."He took a long puff of smoke and said, "Brad, come here."Brad ignored him. He stood on his toes, kissed Eileen on her face and said, "Mom, I will always love you."Trying not to shed tears, she said, "Don't lose your temper and take care of yourse
Chapter 1273Brad smiled and said thoughtfully, "Mom, I'll carry your bag for you."Reluctant to let Brad carry the dusty and shabby bag, Eileen shook her head and said, "It's too heavy for you. I'll carry it."Brad finally smiled. He followed her obediently and picked things up from the ground.As they left, they didn't even look at Luke, let alone say goodbye to him.Luke was angry and cursed her in his heart. He really didn't know why he would agree to it.He slowly drove his car forward and blocked their way. He looked sullen. He was a little annoyed and impatient, "Get in the car."Eileen said directly, "No, thanks. We'll take the bus.""I will be busy later and have no time to pick him up. I'll take him back to the Bennington family's villa after the meal. You can get in the car if you like, but it's okay if you don't."As long as she could be with Brad, she could accept the time no matter how long or short. She told Brad to get in the car first. She reached out her han
Chapter 1274After a while, Eileen came out of the kitchen, walked to Brad and said in a low voice, "Brad, set the table and then have dinner."Brad nodded and quickly picked up his assignment notebooks. He went to find a rag and wiped the table.When Eileen was filling the bowls with vegetable soup and putting other food on the plates, he ran over and took them to the table.Luke narrowed his eyes.When Brad was in the Bennington family's villa, he would either refuse to eat or cry. He hadn't been as obedient as he was now.They just filled two bowls of vegetable soup and then sat opposite each other, ignoring Luke as if he wasn't present.Brad loved the vegetable soup and couldn't stop eating it.As Eileen served him food, she kept telling him to eat slowly. "Eat slowly and don't choke. Nobody will take them from you. They are all yours."Her room wasn't large, and it was now full of fragrances that made them want to eat.Luke hadn't had dinner yet and hadn't felt hungry ea
Chapter 1275Luke glanced at Eileen, then casually picked up his suit in one hand and Brad in the other as he intended to leave.Suddenly there was a loud bang.Eileen moved to the window promptly.A big tree was blown down in the strong wind and crushed on a limousine.Obviously, the typhoon was coming.And the windows clattered as if they were going to shatter the next moment.Eileen put the table against the windows.Luke called Brandy, "I'll send you an address. Come pick me up."Brandy replied, "Mr. Bennington, I just can’t make it right now. With a whole gale, traffic control has begun."Luke frowned at this."I really couldn't make it. The water on the road is so deep that some shops have been flooded." Brandy explained hurriedly."Well, I see."Luke hung up.At the same time, Brad woke up and rubbed his eyes, "We're not leaving, are we, Dad?""Uh, yeah, I guess so.""So, when do we leave?" Brad asked cautiously.Luke answered, "That hasn't been decided yet."Fo
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
