Chapter 1518"Mr. Morgan, will ... will you stay with me?" For her, it was like grabbing her only savior.After a pause, Charlie nodded. "Yeah..."Bella put her mind at rest, but she was still trembling.The surgery went on for a long time, and the lights in the operating room were still on.In the apartment.Grace hadn't slept yet.It was eleven o'clock, and Charlie hadn't returned yet, nor had he called her.She was sneering, staring coldly at her phone, but she didn't call him.After a moment, Grace turned her phone off, went to bed, and fell into a deep sleep.It was three o'clock in the morning.The door of the operating room was finally pushed open. The attending doctor came out and took off his mask. "The patient was sent here in time, so the operation was successful."After holding on for so long, Bella was finally relieved.Her legs went limp and she fell to the ground."But the patient hasn't woken up yet. We are not sure if she can wake up in 24 hours," the doc
Chapter 1519Without staying long, Bella accompanied him out of the ward, and they happened to meet Grace who was pushing the wheelchair...The four of them looked at each other.Grace tightened her grip on the wheelchair, but her pretty face looked calm.Grace's mom didn't know what happened between Grace and Charlie, smiling and greeting her son-in-law. "Charlie, why are you here?""What's wrong with your legs?"Charlie gazed at the wheelchair."To be honest, I fell."The beautiful woman tutted and shook her head."I'm getting old and useless. I fell while walking."Hearing that, Charlie smiled and said sweetly like before."You're still young and beautiful. People will think you're a popular actress and men's dream lover. I don't think you are old at all."At these words, Grace's mom smiled happily. "You're so sweet!"Grace was sneering, saying meaningfully. "You're getting better at telling lies. Look how calm you are! Aren't you afraid of nemesis? You're really someth
Chapter 1520"Huh, I should thank God!" As she heard what her mom said, Grace's face turned cold.The atmosphere in the room soured because of the unpleasant subject.Eventually, Charlie said, "I haven't eaten lunch yet. What do you want to eat? I'll go and buy it."After Grace's mom answered, Charlie nodded and walked out of the ward.The other two people were left alone. Grace's mom lectured Grace softly."Perhaps I deserve to be unloved," Grace concluded.Her indifference infuriated her mom. Grace didn't speak again.Charlie quickly came back with lunch for three.Grace didn't move the fork, saying, "I'm not hungry yet. I'll eat it later."It was soon dark. Charlie didn't go to the company for a day, staying in the ward with Grace's mom.His secretary called him again, saying the ceremony would soon begin and urging Charlie.Grace's mom asked them to go. Grace accompanied Charlie to the ceremony every year. This year was no exception.Though reluctant, Grace decided to
Chapter 1521Bella didn't want to say anything else. She was unfamiliar with the man, so there was no need to argue with him.Grace held a glass of red wine and stood there sipping it.Bella felt that the hall was noisy, and everyone was dressed up. Only she dressed so simply. She thought she shouldn't stay there, so she went out.The pavilion in the hotel was beautiful. There were flowing water, flowers, and chairs. The air was fresh, making people feel comfortable and at ease.Unexpectedly, that man followed her out. "It's good to come out for some fresh air."As soon as she saw him, Bella was a bit disgusted and didn't intend to stay any longer. She thus walked towards the hotel lobby.However, she was stopped by the man. "Why are you leaving?""I'm unfamiliar with you. What do you want?""Unfamiliar? You'll be familiar with me after a chat!" the man said, chuckling.Bella ignored him, bypassed him, and wanted to walk into the lobby.However, no matter she turned left or
Chapter 1522Then Charlie saw what was happening!He frowned. His face turned cold. He strode over, raised his hand, and fiercely punched the man.The man wailed in pain, cursing.When he looked back and saw Charlie, he murmured, "Charlie. ""Who do you think you are to call me by the first name?"Charlie sneered, kicking the man and making him feel dizzy.The man was frightened.Charlie was smiling coldly. "You bastard! How dare you do this in my company! Get out! Don't let me see you in my company again!"At these words, the man immediately fled.He couldn't take Charlie on, and now he was afraid that he would even lose his job at the Morgan Group. He lost more than he gained!Bella was so terrified that her tears wetted her eyelashes. She looked pitiful.Seeing Charlie, she jumped into his arms and grabbed his shirt. "I'm scared, so scared!"Charlie stiffened, his chest slightly heaving. Finally, he patted her on the back, comforting her, "Don't be afraid. I'm here."R
Chapter 1523Charlie raised his hand and wiped the water droplets off his face with his long, slender hand. He was calm. "If she hadn't left quickly, I would have splashed the water on her face!"Grace threw the water cup to the ground and smashed it into pieces."Well, then let's talk here," Charlie said."Okay, you can begin now!"Grace found the most comfortable position and leaned there.The moonlight was bright, beaming down on her face through the tree. She waited quietly.She was waiting for him to speak and tell her what he wanted.Yet she felt that what he was talking about would probably not be what she wanted to hear."Remember it? I once told you..." Finally, Charlie spoke evenly.Hearing this, Grace said with a sneer."You told me many things. I don't know which one you are referring to. Besides, I don't have such a good memory!""I once said..."Charlie paused for a moment."I respect marriage, but if I fall in love with others, I won't cheat on you or hid
Chapter 1524Charlie didn't say anything. He just removed the cigarette between his thin lips, threw it to the ground, and crushed it under his shiny leather shoe.Staring at him doing this silently, Grace kept smiling.She raised her hand and slapped him again. "Does it hurt?"She hit him fiercely in the same place. His face instantly swelled up.The third slap made him tilt his head. Charlie even tasted blood. She hit him with all her strength!After that, Grace's palm was burning and stinging. It was numbed in the end, just like her broken heart.She moved slightly, squatted on the ground, and picked up a piece of broken glass, which was smashed by her.Holding it with her fingertips, Grace slowly approached him.She finally put it against his left cheek. "The two sides of your face look different. Maybe I should add something to it..."Meanwhile, she scratched his face with the sharpest edge of the broken glass.Blood ran out and flowed downward.Charlie stood still.G
Chapter 1525She held up her umbrella and didn't get a cab.She just walked quietly on the lonely street in the pouring rain.The beautiful woman in delicate high heels and a dress was smiling.Her smile was filled with sadness.Until the moment she disappeared in front of Charlie, she was as noble and elegant as usual.However, that was only a pretense. She was trying to maintain self-esteem.Grace moved fast.The first thing she did was to go back to the villa, pull out her suitcase, and put her clothes, cosmetics, shoes, and bags in it.Then she went to the apartment and quickly packed all her things.The table in front of her was lined with bottles of wine, which were gleaming dizzyingly in the light.The doorbell rang.Grace walked over to open the door. It was Summer.Entering the room, Summer glimpsed the wine on the table, frowning. "Why are there so many wines?""Well, Charlie and I talked about divorce..." Grace sat on the carpet.Greatly alarmed, Summer stared
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
