"Curious?" James scoffed. In fact, James had already been informed of Keith's peculiar fascination with Summer by Bradly previously. Keith's supposed curiosity toward Summer seemed like a flimsy excuse to James. He suspected there was something more sinister lurking beneath the surface. Yet, he hadn't anticipated Keith's persistence in using this excuse, especially at this juncture."Do you honestly expect me to believe that, Keith? Summer is just an ordinary woman. What could possibly pique your curiosity about her?""I'm intrigued by her allure to you. I'm curious about what led you to truly fall for her," Keith responded with a smirk, his words laden with insinuation. "You've never shown any interest in women, let alone marriage and family. So, I've been digging. And now, I know about you and Summer."Upon hearing that, James' heart pounded hard. It was his first time feeling afraid. How had someone unearthed his closely guarded past?James asked, "So what do you want? Are y

"Keith, I didn't expect you to track down this far, but I won't let you succeed," James muttered to himself as he looked up toward the sky. At the same time, an unusual glint seemed to flicker in his deep-set eyes as if he were planning something.…Summer finished her examination at the hospital at noon. The doctor diagnosed her as very healthy with no issues at all. This meant that she was not infertile.On the way home, Caroline was suspicious, wondering why Summer and James hadn't conceived. Since it wasn't a health issue, could it be something else? She thought carefully. She had done everything correctly, without any flaws. Perhaps the only thing she hadn't supervised closely was whether James and Summer had actually consummated their marriage.However, as a mom, Caroline felt it wasn't her place to intervene in such matters. She was a conservative woman who considered sex a private affair between husband and wife, not something for others to witness.But despite her reser

After being in the Quigley family for so long, Summer had learned a thing or two. Firstly, when faced with danger or difficulty, one must learn to remain calm. The reason for staying calm was simple. It allowed one to find solutions in desperate situations. Secondly, one must not reveal their emotions to others.Caroline's questioning was undeniably incisive, yet Summer maintained a composed demeanor. She couldn't risk Caroline uncovering her secrets. In the end, she couldn't bring herself to admit the truth, knowing it would leave Caroline with no evidence to refute the insinuations against her and James.Keeping this in mind, Summer asserted firmly, "Mom, you're overanalyzing. James and I are already married, and we'll start a family when the time is right. We've already taken that step. In fact, it's a regular part of our routine, happening every week.""Then, why aren't you pregnant yet?""I don't know. This is my first time getting pregnant," Summer blinked her innocent ey

Yet, Summer still had another trick up her sleeves. She thought about hiding in the restroom until nightfall. When James returned, he could rescue her. However, this idea wasn't feasible. There were still nine hours until nightfall. Must she really hide in the restroom for that long? Even if she could endure it, Caroline would definitely knock the door down and drag her out.In reality, she didn't even have to wait nine hours. Within ten minutes, Caroline had already sent someone to urge Summer to leave the restroom.Of course, Summer wasn't willing to leave. She told the helper outside that she still had stomach pains and needed more time. However, this tactic didn't work well either. When she managed to stall for 20 minutes, Caroline personally came to coax her out. To pressure Summer further, Caroline even threatened that she would lose her temper if Summer continued to stay in the restroom.Summer knew how terrifying it was when Caroline was furious, so she came out without

When James returned home at night, Summer immediately approached him to ask where his birthmark was. Caroline's test on her this afternoon really made her curious. So, of course, she had to ask him now that he had returned home.James listened to her question. Feeling puzzled, he asked, "I don't have a birthmark. Why do you ask such a question?""You don't have a birthmark?" Summer looked shocked upon hearing his answer. It turned out that her guess in the afternoon was right. James didn't have a birthmark! That was to say Caroline had deliberately tried to trick her.Caroline's awareness of her son's absence of a birthmark didn't deter her from raising the question. She probably had calculated that Summer might unwittingly reveal a particular location, falling into her trap.Luckily, Summer wasn't fooled. By some stroke of luck, she actually guessed correctly. Because Summer had answered that James didn't have a birthmark, Caroline completely believed that Summer and James had bee

"Summer, in wealthy families, cheerful women like you usually don't last long," Howe remarked casually.Summer rolled her eyes at his words. She didn't intend to stay in their wealthy family. Her wish was to leave this place. She didn't want to get involved in their wealthy family's affairs.However, she didn't want to chat with Howe any longer. She had already greeted him. What needed to be done was done. So, Summer waved him goodbye. "Summer, wait up." As Summer was on the verge of leaving, Howe suddenly called out to her. Upon hearing this, Summer looked back with confusion. She didn't know what he wanted.Howe walked over and said, "Summer, let's talk about the four prestigious families' wine-tasting party that will be happening three days later.""The four prestigious families' wine tasting party?" Upon hearing about the party, Summer only thought about exchanging glasses and blinding lights. Wealthy families often hosted this kind of large-scale party. However, Summer didn'

Lexi answered, "I do. I know about the wine-tasting party.""What exactly is this wine-tasting party for?" Summer asked."Don't you know, Mrs. Quigley?" Lexi asked, feeling surprised. Anyone in Rosseera City would know about the wine-tasting party. Seeing the puzzled look on Summer's face, Lexi feared that she indeed didn't know about it at all. So, she explained, "The wine-tasting party is a gathering where people taste wines from different countries. Although it is called a gathering, it is an assessment.""What's being assessed?" Summer asked, feeling a nervous tension creeping in. She vaguely had a feeling that this assessment might be related to her.And Summer wasn't wrong. The assessment was indeed related to her.Lexi explained, "The wine-tasting party is specifically designed for married individuals, aiming to assess their performance. Apart from the four prestigious families, other people will also attend.""So, only married individuals are allowed to attend? And is i

James comforted Summer, saying, "It isn't particularly important. You don't necessarily have to attend."Although that was what he said, Summer knew he was only trying to ease her pressure. Lexi had already informed her how important the competition was.The purpose of the competition in the wine-tasting party was to enhance the reputation of the family and solidify its position within the community. It might sound somewhat trivial, but it was a competition that would bring honor.For wealthy families, money held little value. On the other hand, power and prestige were paramount. It was so important that some were even willing to die for their honor. James only lightly mentioned the matter, but it didn't mean that the matter was unimportant."James, I'll attend it," Summer said.James could see the strain in Summer's expression, but he didn't say anything. He probably understood her reasons for wanting to attend it. He approached her and placed his hands on her shoulders. He sai
