Chapter 901But he didn't know what to do with her, nor did he know what he should do.His low breath fell on the top of her head. Kingsley swallowed and hugged her tightly again. Then he let go of her reluctantly.Sherman lowered her head and walked away.Her hair covered her face. He couldn't see her look clearly.This time he didn't stop her or say anything. He stood still and let her disappear in front of his deep eyes.He had quit smoking for more than ten years. However, he wanted to smoke at this moment. He wanted to feel the nicotine being inhaled from his lips into his lungs.Kingsley didn't suppress himself. He went to the supermarket across the street and bought a box of cigarettes.Standing by the car, he held the cigarette with his right fingertips. The smoke was dazzling, and he narrowed his left eye slightly.More than ten years had passed by. He wasn't quite familiar with the posture of smoking or its smell.He stood in the cold wind for a long time.However,
Chapter 902"I think Mr. Wright handled it pretty well. It would have been irresponsible for him to have resisted the marriage, or to have been married for real. Obviously, neither was the best choice." Sherman wasn't listening to her. Grace shut her mouth. She had said that everyone saw things differently. They had hotpot in the morning until noon. They spent the afternoon nestling on the couch, watching a variety show to relax and cheer up their spirits. Grace left in the evening. When she got home, she called Summer and told her about Sherman. She told her what she thought about it, and one of her friends said that their marriage was for charity. Summer smiled and asked Grace, "Do you know what charity means? It is kindness. However, that Mr. Wright married Merlin was not out of kindness. It was out of guilt, and he wanted to repay the favor. It was completely different from charity. What he wanted was peace of mind. He hoped he would not feel guil
Chapter 903Natalie walked over and sat opposite Sherman. Sherman sipped her coffee expressionlessly."Did you break up with your boyfriend? Or did you get dumped?" Natalie asked.Sherman didn't look at her but stirred her coffee. Natalie added, "A few days ago, I saw him shopping with a woman at the mall. They don't seem to be close, but they weren't ordinary friends.""Please get out of here; otherwise I'll have the attendant ask you to leave." Sherman said calmly though she was a little annoyed.Natalie smiled and said, "I just think we are the same. You've been dumped, so have I."Few people in Santabaca knew Kingsley's identity and that he was married. Therefore, Natalie didn't know that either.Just like at that business party, some people knew a little about his identity, but not in detail."However, do you believe that I will eventually marry Billy?" Natalie's voice was soft, but with an inevitable determination.Sherman thought she was ridiculous, "Should I send you a
Chapter 904Merlin knew what he wanted to say. She looked up and also took a sip of water, "I heard Luke say that you have someone you like.""Yes." Kingsley confessed.Merlin was gentle, which had to do with her heart disease. She said slowly, "Do you like her so much?""No one but her has given me such an intense feeling, which was very special..." He said.Merlin touched the edge of her cup lightly with her fingers. She had liked him since she was a child. She didn't show her love to him, but she believed that he must know that.After freezing for a moment, she raised her head, "So, are you going to divorce me?"Kingsley said gently, "I don't want to miss her. Merlin, I don't get crushes all the time. The first woman I had a crush on has passed away and this is my last time to have a crush on a woman.""I'll think about it." Merlin's voice was slow. She did everything slowly and she rarely got excited."Okay." Kingsley didn't force her to answer his question. She needed tim
Chapter 905She had been with him for two years. One couldn't be too greedy.Moreover, he was very considerate and thoughtful. He had been very good to her for the past two years."Tell me whenever you want to file for divorce."Merlin nodded. But when she was about to walk out of the room, she stopped and said, "But I have one request."She turned around. Kingsley looked at her relaxedly and said gently, "What is it?"...As time went by, Sherman moved into her new home, and she felt a sense of security.She lived a very regular and fulfilled life. Sometimes, she went to the gym on Sundays.But sometimes she felt lonely.He disappeared from her world without a trace. Sometimes she would look out the window.When she lived in the previous apartment, his silver Mulsanne would always be downstairs...Now more than half a month had passed. Billy came over to her apartment community every day.She used to think that no one knew him better than she did.Now she found that it w
Chapter 906Luckily the birth went well. An hour later, the door of the operating room opened, and the doctor walked out while taking off the mask.Mark, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't wait to walk forward and asked with an anxious voice, "How is it?"The doctor smiled, "Congratulations, Mr. Valentine. The mother and baby boy are doing well."The group of people cheered. Charlotte clapped her hands and was very happy because she had a younger brother.Mark's throat rolled slightly and he finally relaxed his body. When the doctor asked him to cut the umbilical cord for his baby, the big and strong hands of this famous businessman in Santabaca were trembling as he grasped the scissors.The anesthetic hadn’t worn off. Summer was still sleeping. He asked everyone to leave the ward except himself.He held Summer’s hand in his palm. Mark lowered his head and gently kissed the back of her hand, "Honey, you did a very good job."When Charlotte knew that Jazz wanted to t
Chapter 907In front of Billy, Natalie wanted to make herself perfect and charming all the time.After taking what Sarah gave him, Billy didn't stay in the store anymore. However, Sarah stopped him. "Natalie happens to be going to the branch on South Lane to get some files. You give her a drive."Natalie shook her head and declined. She said, “It is convenient to take a taxi here and I don’t want to trouble Billy.”“Let's go. I happen to be going to South Lane. I’ll give you a drive.” Billy said.So, Natalie didn't refuse any more. And she said in a low voice, “Thank you.”The driver was driving. Billy was sitting on the right side of the back seat, while Natalie was sitting on the left.For a while, the two of them were speechless, as neither of them spoke. They maintained the silence. Suddenly, the pen in Natalie’s hand fell to the ground so she bent down to pick it up. She exposed her plump bosoms to Billy, intentionally or unintentionally.Billy glanced at her and then look
Chapter 908"It's none of your business."Sherman's hands, which were hanging down at her side, clenched. It was she who broke up with him, it was not surprising that Kingsley hadn't shown up.Even if Kingsley appeared before her eyes again, nothing would happen between the two for they were like strangers now.After Kingsley unintentionally put her in such a dilemma, she had resentment in her heart, but she would miss him and his gentleness sometimes.But, Sherman could refrain herself very well. Whether Kingsley was intentional or not, it was him who made things become like this. Sherman did miss him, but would not forgive him!Billy lost his temper suddenly. Holding Sherman's face, he kissed her. He had enough with Sherman's being indifferent and confrontational.When struggling, Sherman raised her hand and slapped Billy in the face. Then Sherman pushed him forcibly away, "Do not do this again. You make me sick."Sherman didn't stop rubbing her lips until her lips felt burni
