Just as Cecilia had guessed, Barbara had her ear pressed against the wall in the neighboring bedroom. She did not want to miss anything that happened next door. "That's odd. Why aren't there any movements at all?" Barbara frowned. She asked Raymond, who was lying on the bed, "Raymond, do you thin
Sean looked at Cecilia and saw how stiff she was.So he was right…"Don't worry, you silly goose. I won't go to see Blake." He comforted her gently.He and Blake had ended long ago.The moment Blake had said those things that night, things were really over between them. "Sean, that's not what I mea
"Colonel Zinn, what on earth is it? Why are you being so mysterious?"It made Sean uneasy to see her being so evasive."It's nothing much, really. Just listen to me and don't go there within the next couple of days," Lindsay said."Alright…"Sean knew that even if he kept asking, Lindsay would still
Outside the hospital room, Sean couldn't help rolling her eyes when he saw how hesitant Layla looked. He said, "Alright, Dr. Turner. What do you need me for?""Well… Sean, could you come with me to my high school reunion later?" She asked softly."Reunion?" Sean said, startled. "That's your reunio
Sean stood frozen where he was.He stared at the huge wedding photo of Blake that was being displayed on the screen.At that moment, he finally understood why Lindsay had told him not to go there within the next few days.She hadn't wanted him to see this."Blake, are you doing this to stop me from
They were at the main branch of Salvania Bank in Skye City.Sean walked into the main hall and got a number."Sean, why are you walking so fast? You don't have a crush on Blake, do you?" Layla followed behind him, panting."Dr. Turner, do you still want me to go with you to your reunion?" Sean turne
Helena spoke sarcastically, and Layla's expression changed slightly.She didn't want to stoop to Helena's level, but she hadn't expected the latter to be this aggressive with her words."What do you mean by that, Helena?" Layla's expression turned cold. "I'm just telling the truth." Helena shrugged
"One billion!"Silence hung in the air.Helena was stunned for a few seconds.She looked at Layla in disbelief, then turned to Jayden, who looked equally flabbergasted. "H-honey… I didn't hear her wrongly, did I? Did Layla say… one billion?""You didn't hear her wrongly. It was one billion." Jayden
"Quickly, hold your breaths and hide your presence!" Amelia instructed in a low voice.Everyone suppressed their breaths and hid in the bushes.In the sky, a swoosh echoed, and tracking waves radiated through the air. Upon failing to detect the presence of any vital energy, they quickly left.After
"What? Did you say that Grandma and the others are here?" Selene's heart skipped a beat."Yes! Hide yourself!" Sean said urgently.Suddenly, they heard a swoosh, and before they could move a muscle, the sounds of wind breaking resounded in the forest. The strongest presence amongst them had already
"First time?" Startled, Sean then realized what she was speaking about and chuckled awkwardly. "Yeah, it was. What's the matter?""That explains it." Selene had a confident look on her face, as if she were now sure of something. "What do you mean?" Sean asked, puzzled."That explains why there's su
"Would you like to expose Zephyr's scheme?" Sean asked in a deep voice when he saw the iciness in Selene's eyes."Yes." Selene nodded. The disgust she held for Zephyr was undisguised in her tone."The Ten Great Families are still in the dark; even if both of us combine forces, we're far from being Z
"Selene, I'm sorry about what happened earlier. I couldn't control myself." Upon hearing Selene's low mumbling, Sean felt the numbness in his scalp intensify.Even though he had been forced to take action in this incident, he took the initiative to claim the responsibility. After all, Selene was at
Selene moaned softly, gradually waking up.Sean took in a sharp breath and felt his scalp turning numb. This was bad! He hurriedly got up, wanting to clear up the scene.However, when he looked at the clothes strewn across the floor, he knew that it was too late to dress Selene and cover her body.
Sean's body tensed, his mind resonating with a thunderous roar.Before he could react, Selene's soft lips pressed firmly against his. Her tongue, sweet yet tentative, explored his mouth.In an instant, heat ignited within Sean like a wildfire. Unable to restrain himself any longer, he swiftly pushed
"Selene, what are you doing?"Sean's heart skipped a beat as Selene suddenly embraced him from behind, resting her head against his chest.He sensed that if this continued, it could lead to serious trouble.At that moment, Selene's breath hitched.The sensation of Sean's body pressed against hers, a
Sean's eyes widened in shock. He had never expected Selene to kiss him so passionately!Her lips were remarkably soft, and her tongue moved with nimble grace, despite her lack of experience. Fueled by the ambergris, her kiss was intense and fiery.At that moment, Sean felt as if he were about to mel
