But was Ronald going to forfeit everything he had for his son? No, he couldn’t. Even if he no longer had a son, Jessie could give him another one. Ronald left the school and went straight to Jessie. She was sitting at her dresser with a mask on. When she saw Ronald, she frowned. “Why are you here? Aren’t you afraid that your wife will find out?”“Jessie.” He stood behind her and looked at her. “Amos was taken.”Jessie paused, then she put the cap on her moisturizer. “Your son was taken?”Ronald frowned. “It wasn’t you?”That person knew Amos’ name, his phone number, and his wife’s name. It must be someone they knew. He had been speculating who would take his son. It probably wasn’t that dumb woman. She would go get him herself. Other than her, the other person he could think of was Jessie. Jessie was surprised and slowly stood up. “Ronny, what are you trying to say? Do you think that I took him?”Ronald grabbed her shoulders. “Jessie, that wasn’t what I meant…”Jessie pus
Ronald kissed her. “Ignore it.”The knocks persisted, and Ronald was so annoyed he couldn’t continue. He yelled. “Who the f*ck is it?”He then put his pants back on, got up, and opened the door. The woman standing there made his expression change. Gina suddenly rushed in and gave him a slap on his face. “You heartless thing! Give Amos back to me!”Her eyes suddenly went to Jessie, who was covering herself with her clothes. Jessie didn’t expect that it was her, so she was shocked. Gina had found out about them a while ago, but she couldn’t accept it when she saw it with her own eyes. She rushed forward, grabbed something from the table, and was going to hit her. “You b*tch, you lied to me!”“Aaah!! Ronny, help me!”Gina pulled her hair and slapped her very hard. Jessie could only cry out in pain.Ronald rushed over and shoved her away. “Are you crazy!?”Gina fell to the floor. Her hand hit the corner of the table and started bleeding. However, her anger numbed the pain.She
Just when Ronald was about to close the door, the man placed his hand on the door and asked, “Are you guys fighting? Because I heard quite a lot of commotion going on here.”When Ronald was about to shout at the man, Jessie suddenly said, “My sister fell down! Hurry up and call the ambulance before it’s too late!”‘D*mn it! I don’t want to become a murderer because of this guy. Even if she’s going to die, she can’t die here!’Ronald did not expect that Jessie would want to save Gina, but he couldn’t get angry right now.The man entered the room to check on Gina. When he noticed that she was still breathing, he hastily pulled his phone out and called the emergency center.Soon, the ambulance arrived. The paramedics took Gina to the ambulance, and Jessie heaved out a sigh of relief. She turned to look at Ronald and realized that his face was dark. She thought about something and took a deep breath. “Ronny, please don’t get angry at me. We can't become murderers because of her. I
Colton closed the document and explained, “I… I thought you were Leonardo.”Freyja did not say anything and opened up the lunch box.Colton looked at the lunch box and asked hesitantly, “Did you come to bring me lunch?”“Are you going to eat it or not? If not, then I’m leaving.” Just when Freyja was about to close the lunch box, he took it away. “I didn’t say I’m not going to eat it.”Colton picked up a fork and something came into his mind. He lifted his head and smiled at her. “I thought you said you were not going to talk to me for a week? Why did you suddenly want to bring me lunch?” He had assumed Freyja was going to ignore him for a while, but now it seemed to him that her anger subsided quite quickly.He had not stayed in the study room last night for nothing. Freyja squinted and forced a smile on her face. “Do you know about the last meal before execution?” Colton was rendered speechless.She placed her hands on the desk and looked at him. “This is your last meal.”
Colton was pacing back and forth anxiously in the obstetrics and gynecology inpatient department corridor.Leonardo looked at him and said, “Don’t worry too much, Mr. Goldmann. I think it’s about time for Ms. Pruitt to give birth.”Colton was stunned. ‘She’s giving birth soon?’He turned his head to look at Leonard and asked, “If she’s giving birth soon, will it be painful?”Leonardo shrugged. “How would I know? I’m not a woman.”After he finished speaking, he added, “But I heard that all of the women would look like this when they’re about to give birth to a baby. Besides, Ms. Pruitt’s stomach is big, so I think it’s about time.”“Colton.”Colton heard someone calling for him and turned his head around. “Mom? Dad?” Maisie and Nolan walked over to them and asked, “How is Freyja?”He lowered his head and replied, “She’s still inside there.” The doctor came out and asked, “Who’s Ms. Pruitt’s family?”Colton replied, “I am.”The doctor looked at him and said in a stern voi
Freyja couldn’t help but chuckle. She patted his hand and said, “Stop making me laugh.”He placed her hand on his cheek and said, “Aren’t you in a lot of pain now? I figure that I should take up the role and cheer you up a little.”She laughed again. “Take up the role and cheer me up? Why does it sound like you’re reluctant to do it? Did I ask you to cheer me up?”Colton sighed. “You didn't want to pet me when I wanted to take a nap earlier, and now you’re not letting me cheer you up.”“Do you really have to fight with a pregnant woman? Can’t you just let me win for one time? Do you know that I’m so exasperated now that our baby is coming out?”She was about to cry with exasperation.Colton suddenly let out a laugh and rose to his feet. He sat by the bed and pulled her into his arms. “Alright. I’ll let you win once you’ve given birth to our baby.”She tried to push him away. “All you care about is the baby.”Colton secured her tightly in his arms and said in a low voice, “You’r
Ronald smashed their cameras and pointed at them. His face was contorted with anger as he roared, “I warn you! Get the hell out of here! Don’t force me to beat you all up!”“Mr. George, are you mad with us? I heard that your mistress is your wife’s psychologist. Can you tell us when you guys started seeing each other?”The group of reporters ignored Ronald. Even if he smashed their cameras, they still had their phones. The corridor of the hospital was so packed with people that nothing could get through at all.Soon, a few doctors came over to disperse the crowd. A few patients and family members from other wards came out and watched the show. “What’s going on?”“I heard a man was having sex with his mistress inside his wife’s ward.”“What!? How terrible! Can he even consider himself a man? He’s such a disgrace!” The news spread all over the Internet rapidly. The title such as #Heartless man making out with his mistress in his wife’s ward# appeared everywhere on the Intern
Cameron smacked Waylon’s hand away and turned her face away. “You look like you always have ulterior motives.”Waylon did not know how to react to that statement. He grabbed her into his arms and said, “All I want is you, and that makes me a person with ulterior motives?”“Yes.” Cameron bit the bullet and replied, but her ears were flushed.She quickly broke free from his arms and took her cell phone out. “I miss my father, so I’m going to call him for a short catch-up. Don’t follow me.”She then hurried away and did not dare to look back.Waylon leaned back in the chair, propped the back of his hand against his forehead, and chuckled.‘She’s really good at tantalizing others.’…Jessie locked herself in her residence for two days. Her phone had been spammed by emails, text messages, and phone calls all day long, and all the text messages that she received were malicious insults and curses.She curled up on the couch, had not closed her eyes to get some rest for almost two day
“Daisie.” Leah and Morrison walked up to her with wine glasses. “You look so pretty today.”“Thank you,” Daisie said with a smile.Leah lifted her wine glass. “I propose a toast. Morrison and I wish you a happy marriage.”Daisie clinked glasses with her. “Same goes for you and Morrison.”After the toast, Cameron walked up to Daisie with Waylon. Behind them were Freyja, Colton, Maisie, and Nolan.Maisie raised her hand and caressed her on the cheek. “You were great earlier today.”She giggled. “Really?”Nolan added, “You’ll forever be our dazzling pride, so yes.”Daisie grinned as if she was still the little princess of the family.Nollace came over. “Dad, Mom, a toast to the both of you. Thank you for letting me have Daisie’s hand.”“Consider yourself lucky.” Nolan snorted softly, picked up his wine glass, and clinked glasses with him. “You’d better treat my daughter well from now on.”Nollace glanced at Daisie. “Don’t worry. She’ll forever be my one and only.”Maisie chuck
In order to make way for the wedding carriage, other vehicles had been forbidden from accessing the route from the palace to the cathedral.Daisie looked out of the carriage—the streets were crowded with citizens, and they were all there to witness this grand scene.Nollace, sitting on the side, was wearing a double-breasted dark blue military jacket. He looked tall and broad, and there were two St. Patrick’s Stars on his epaulets, one on each side, a full set of medals on his chest, and other complicated decorations.He held the back of Daisie’s hand and smiled suddenly. “You have sweaty palms.”Daisie looked back at him and responded with a trembling voice, “I’m nervous.”He lifted her hand and kissed the back of her hand. “I’m here, so don’t be nervous. Just take it easy.”Daisie’s gaze landed on his wedding jacket. “You look nice in this uniform.”Nollace chuckled. “And my bride looks stunning too.”Arriving at the cathedral, Nollace was separated from Daisie. Accompanied b
“By the way, where’s Cameron?” asked Morrison.Waylon replied, “She’s accompanying her father on a stroll. I’m going to go meet them already, so I’ll leave you to yourselves for now. You can do whatever you want with your free time.”After saying that, he got up and left the couple.Morrison shook his head. “He’s changed now that he has a wife.”“You’re speaking as if you haven’t changed.” Leah got up instantly and left the restaurant.Morrison put his cup down and caught up to her immediately. “Hey, why would you leave me behind? Wait for me.”Maisie and Saydie came out of the private room and ran into Nolan and Quincy in the corridor.Quincy nodded. “Mrs. Goldmann.”Maisie stopped in front of Nolan, and Nolan grabbed her by her hand. “Have you finished catching up?”“Of course. Didn’t you want to go to the Hathaways’ villa with Dad in the afternoon?”Nolan smiled. “I was waiting for you. We’re just going over to have a meal together.”Quincy walked up to Saydie’s side and
Daisie grinned from ear to ear. “Then I’ll wear this crown on my wedding day, which can be considered an endorsement for my mom’s jewelry company and design.”Nollace hugged her from behind. “You can do anything as long as you like it.”…The members of the Goldmanns arrived in Yaramoor two days before the wedding and stayed in the hotel arranged by Nollace. The royal family had reserved the entire hotel for receiving distinguished guests from Zlokova who came to attend the wedding.Members from the Bouchers and the Lucases showed up, and Sunny was also present.There were also some familiar faces from the Zlokovian entertainment industry. Hannah, Amy, James, and Charlie, who were close friends with Daisie, all came.Leah and Morrison were also on the invitation list.When Maisie came to the restaurant, the waiter led her into a private room.As soon as she saw the man sitting inside, she smiled and exclaimed, “Godfather!”Strix slowly turned around.She had not seen him for
The rest of the people laughed.The night came, and the entire city was shrouded in a mist of neon light. Daisie and Nollace returned to Taylorton after having their dinner.Her hair was wet as she got out of the shower. Nollace took over her towel and helped her to dry her hair.She sat in front of her dresser and looked at the person behind her through the mirror. There was a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth as she said, “Nolly, I’m really looking forward to our wedding.”“Really?” Nollace gently dried the soft tips of her hair. “I’m looking forward to it too.”“I can say that my life is perfect now, right? Since I can marry and walk down the aisle with the man I love the most.”He laughed out loud and leaned down to her ear. “You know what? All the wishes in my life have come true as well.”Daisie turned her head around. “What are your wishes?”“Marry you, give you a wedding, and have our own kids.”She was stunned. Slowly, her face turned red due to her embarrassme
“Yeah, it’s true,” replied Zephir.“It seems like you’ve finally become more mature after coming back from your vacation.” Naomi patted his shoulder. “I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.” He smiled at her but did not say anything.…Soon, it was the end of the month. Their vacation had come to an end, and they returned to Bassburgh.Maisie and Nolan were waiting for them in the courtyard. After getting out of the car, Daisie ran up to them. “Mommy! Daddy!”She hugged both of them.Nolan petted her head and smiled helplessly. “You’re an adult now. You should stop acting like a kid.”She smiled back at them and said, “But I know I’ll always be your kid in your eyes.”Maisie chuckled and looked at the other people. “It seems like you guys had a lot of fun. Anyway, come in first. We should eat together tonight.”Freyja and Cameron went to look for their kids after they went into the house. Charm and her two cousins were staying in the same room. All of them were sl
Nollace looked at them. “What a coincidence.”“Morrison and I were here earlier than you guys,” said Leah. “We only found out that you guys were here when Daisie posted a photo on her Facebook page.”Daisie pulled Leah to the seat and said, “Then you should stay a few more days with us.”After Morrison took his seat, Waylon introduced him to Freyja and Daisie. “She’s my sister-in-law, Freyja, and she’s my sister. Her name is Daisie.”“I’ve seen them before at your wedding,” said Morrison. “Your sister is my wife’s classmate. She has told me before.”“Since when did I become your wife? There’s a chance I may not marry you in the future,” said Leah.“We’re already engaged. If you don’t want to marry me, who else are you going to marry?” Morrison frowned, causing the crowd to break out in a burst of laughter, save for Daisie.She looked at Leah in disbelief and asked, “Engaged? When did you get engaged, Leah?” Leah cleared her throat and replied, “Well, I forgot to inform you abo
The stall owner said, “$10 for three chances.”“$10 for three chances only? That’s expensive,” commented Freyja.The stall owner raised his head and said, “I’m the cheapest around here. Other stalls offer $15 for three chances.” Daisie tugged at Freyja and said, “Let's just give him the money. It isn't easy for them to set up a stall here anyway, so let's have some fun.”After that, she gave $20 to the stall owner and said, “Please give us six hoops.”The stall owner gave her six hoops. She had her eyes set on a bracelet. Although she knew it was fake, it was rather beautiful. She held a hoop and threw it toward the bracelet.However, she did not get it.She threw another two hoops at the bracelet, but her attempts failed, much to her chagrin. She had only three hoops left.Seeing that Daisie was prepared to give up, Cameron took over the rest of the hoops in her hand and said, “Leave it to me.”She squinted and aimed at the bracelet. After that, she threw the hoop at it an
The night of the old town was silent. The air was filled with nothing but the humming of insects. There was a lamp hanging outside of the tent on the grass. The atmosphere was quiet. Daisie was tossing and turning in the sleeping bag as sleep just wouldn't come to her. Suddenly, an arm appeared across her waist as she was brought into a chest. “What’s the matter? You can’t sleep?”“Yeah…” She buried her head in his chest and said, “I want to go to take a leak, but I’m a little bit scared.”Nollace kissed her forehead and said, “I’ll go with you then.”Both of them came out of the tent. Nollace took a flashlight and led Daisie to a row of trees in the distance. Daisie turned her head and said, “You wait for me here.”Nollace nodded. “Just shout my name if you need anything.”She walked into the forest and stopped in front of a tree not far away from Nollace.After she had done her business, she hastily got out of the forest and held tightly to Nollace’s arm. “Alright, let’s go
