Chapter 1293Luke's chest heaved.He didn't leave, quietly gazing at Brad sleeping.He stood still for ten or twenty minutes.Luke gently stroked Brad's face and tucked him in before leaving.Back in his room, he didn't sleep, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking out of the window. It was dark as ink. He held a glass of wine, shook it, and then downed it.Early the next morning.Brad was brought downstairs by Brandy to eat breakfast. Brandy was surprised to see his boss reading the newspaper instead of going to the company.Brad didn't like soya milk.At the smell of it, he wrinkled his small brows like an aged man.It was just a tiny detail, but Luke noticed it. He put down the newspaper, saying, "Just leave it if you don't like it."Yet Brad shook his head. "Mom said I can't waste food. I'll drink it this time. Don't prepare soya milk for me again."Raising his little head, he pouted and swallowed the soya milk though reluctant.Luke was stunned and
Chapter 1294The next day.After Eileen finished her work, she leaned against the chair and stretched her neck.Ruben walked in and asked, "Have you finished your work?"Eileen nodded, "I have finished my work."He said, "Then would you like to buy me a cup of coffee?"Eileen was surprised. She said, "What...?"Jayla passed by and said behind them, "Haven't you heard about 'the first cup of coffee in autumn? It's the latest buzzwords."Eileen smiled, "I rarely surf the Internet."Jayla smiled, "It's Ruben who drove you home on your birthday. You should buy him a cup of coffee."Hearing that, Eileen thought that Jayla was right.Eileen thought that she should return the favor.She said, "OK. What would you like to drink?"Before Ruben replied, Jayla said, "Not far away, there is a new coffee shop. It is about 1 km away from our company. It tastes good. Have a try."Ruben smiled, "Jayla has a good taste. Since she recommends the coffee shop to us, it will be great. Would yo
Chapter 1295The man shouted, "Apologize to her? No way! If you're really such a tough guy, then break my arm!"Ruben stepped on the man's arm forcibly.The man cried out in pain and apologized to Eileen immediately.After half an hour, they bought the coffee.Ruben apologized to Eileen, "I'm sorry that you suffer from it today because of me. If I hadn't asked you to buy me a cup of coffee, that wouldn't have happened."Eileen shook her head, "It has nothing to do with you. It's because I meet bad-mannered people."Ruben said, "I would like to treat you to dinner to express my apologies."Eileen said, "Oh, no, that's not necessary."Ruben said, "Please let me treat you to dinner. Otherwise, I will feel guilty all the time."Eileen had no other choice but to agree.Ruben chose the most high-end restaurant in Lanechett, Hanging Garden.It was Eileen's first time to come to such a high-end restaurant.However, Ruben often came here and ordered some specialties.When talking
Chapter 1296After a while, Eileen said, "I want to wash my hands."Ruben nodded, "OK."Eileen stood up. A waiter led her the way to the restroom immediately.When she saw Luke in front of the sink, she stood there still.The world was so small.She even met him here.However, she didn't bother to greet him. She ignored him directly.Luke said in a cold and deep voice, "Don't move!"Eileen stopped and said, "What's the matter?"He said, "Don't you say that you will go to Athana? Why do you still work in Lanechett? Eileen, is what you have said true?"Hearing that, she smiled, "You want to get the custody of Brad and don't allow me to see him. I lie that I will go to Athana because I want Brad to give up. How can you blame me? It's ridiculous. Won't you feel shameful?"Luke looked at her and narrowed his eyes.She added, "Even though I lie to Brad, it has nothing to do with you."Luke was stuck for words.However, he calmed down soon.He put his hands into his pants pock
Chapter 1297Hearing that, Luke remembered it gradually. He explained, "I was drunk at that time."Brandy said, "Anyway, Ms. Barton has never gone to the school since then and been reluctant to go out. She is reluctant to go out all the time."He even cursed her like that after he was drunk.Luke had a headache. He raised his hands and massaged his forehead.He said, "Go to the school to pick Brad up. I will ask someone else to pick me up."Brandy said, "OK."The next day.When Eileen arrived at the office, she was almost late for work.She was out of breath. She wasn't relieved until she sat in her position. She calmed down and took a deep breath.After all, she was a newcomer in the company. If she were late, it would be embarrassing.At that time, a man's hand appeared in front of her.A cup of coffee and bread were put in front of her. Eileen raised her head in surprise. She saw Ruben.He said, "I saw that you were anxious just now. I guess that you haven't eaten break
Chapter 1298Eileen frowned and said, "Jayla will come with us?"Ruben nodded, "Yes."Eileen said, "OK, but it's my treat today."Hearing that, Ruben teased her, "Although I usually won't let women treat me, it seems that I may not be able to have dinner with you if I disagree."Ruben was humorous. They looked at each other and smiled. The atmosphere was congenial.Eileen smiled.Jayla was nice to her. Now that Jayla wanted to eat spaghetti, Eileen was willing to go with them.When it was time for them to get off work, Ruben went to drive his car.Eileen and Jayla got in the car. Eileen told Ruben the address.The small restaurant was inside an alley. It took them a long time to find it.Ruben was hovering outside the restaurant.Eileen turned around and said, "If you don't like it, we can go to another restaurant. I choose the one that I like but forget to consider the preference of Jayla and you."The restaurant looked dirty from the outside. Ruben had a good family back
Chapter 1299Eileen said, "I see."Hearing what Brandy had said, she became anxious and ate quickly.Ruben noticed that and said, "Take it easy. I will drive you home after dinner."Eileen smiled and said to the small restaurant's owner, "Hi, please wrap up one for me. I will take it to go. Don't cook it."She was afraid that the spaghetti would stick together when she went back.Ruben asked naturally, "Who do you wrap it up for?"She said honestly, "My son."Hearing that, Ruben opened his eyes wide in surprise and asked, "Your son?“Eileen said, "I have a son. I got married when I was twenty-two years old. My son is eight years old now, but I have divorced his father. My son stays by his father's side."Eileen was reluctant to hide it from others. She told him the truth calmly.'If Ruben has a crush on me, he will give up after he knows about it."Ruben closed his eyes and said, "Sorry, I don't mean to be offensive."As for women, such a topic was private, and it might hu
Chapter 1300‘Why can that man get into her apartment while I have to be kept out?’The two were in a stalemate.The scene looked like a tug of war. Luke was a bit childish.Ruben walked over and said with a light smile, "It's getting late. I should leave. See you tomorrow."Hearing this, Eileen suddenly straightened up and stepped away from the door.Luke immediately pulled his leg back, which was hurting badly from the clamping. Enduring the pain, he stood straight to pretend that nothing had happened."Don't drink something?"She always felt that she was a little impolite to Ruben. "There is still coffee at home. I’ll make you a cup of coffee."Shaking his head, Ruben declined. "It's too late. It will take more than an hour to get back to where I live from here. You can make me coffee tomorrow when you get to the office."Eileen nodded. "Then I'll accompany you downstairs."Both of them ignored Luke and walked downstairs.When Luke squinted at them, his face turned dar
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
