Daisie was startled and chuckled. “I’m asking you to pay attention to the play, not me.”Nollace kissed her on the cheek. “I paid attention to both the shooting and you.”A hint of slyness flashed across Daisie’s eyes, and she inserted her freezing hands into his clothes.He hissed and grabbed her hands. “Okay, you’ve degenerated, haven’t you?”She pretended to be aggrieved. “My hands are cold.”Nollace hugged her and pressed his lips against her cheek. “Is it really cold out there?”She nodded.Nollace buried his face into her neck. “Then do you want to get warmed up?”Daisie became alert, held his cheeks in her palms, and said seriously, “We’re at a filming site, so you better not do anything to me here.”He smirked. “Do I look like such a person?”Daisie suddenly received a text message on her cell phone. She took it out, took a glance at its content, and looked surprised by it. “Freyja has given birth, and it’s a baby girl!”Nollace placed his palm on her flat stomach. “
Nollace walked up to them. “I’ll stay behind so that the trailer will fit one more person.”Shannon refuted immediately, “That can’t be it, Mr. Knowles. You should leave with them.”“It’s okay. I can stay and help.”Daisie added, “I’ll stay too.”Shannon thought about it as the dark clouds on the horizon became darker and darker and started to cover half of the sky.Seeing that there was not much time for him to think about it, he gnashed his teeth and nodded. “Okay, we’ll go with that plan.”After arranging all the people onto the trailer, two crew members were left behind, and the rest of the crew left.Nollace got into the minibus to check on the vehicle's condition and then got out of the vehicle. “My guess is that the engine has broken down. A blizzard is now imminent, and there’s no other place for us to hide around here. It seems that we can only stay on this bus for the night.”Shannon turned his head and asked the other two crew members, “Do we have any food?”“We bro
Zephir got up. “When will the big blizzard pass?”One of the crew members shook his head. “We don’t know that, but there are five of them, and there’s a minibus at the scene, so they can still survive the night if they can gather in the bus.”Zephir’s masseter twitched, but he did not utter a single word.James laughed, glanced at the actress, and mocked her. “Oh, just how fast can some people smack themselves in the face? I wonder who’s the person who was able to muster that much confidence to complain and badmouth Daisie just now.”The actress was ashamed and left the lobby in anger.James crossed his arms and snorted coldly.‘How dare she pretend to be the Virgin Mary when I’m around?’Later that night, the snow got heavier and heavier, and the strong wind whistled and howled.The lights in the car were turned on, which were maintained by the car battery of the minibus. Everyone was wearing thick-padded jackets and tried to get as close to each other as possible for warmth.
The whole night was silent for some yet noisy for others. The rest of the people were already asleep, and only Nollace was still wide awake.He lowered his gaze, stared at Daisie, who was lying in his arms, and gently brushed the hair on her forehead with his fingers. She twitched for a split second in his arms and went back to sleep.He smiled and then tightened his embrace.Nollace seemed to have recalled the time when Daisie accompanied him to Octavia, disregarding her own safety. Whether it was in the past or now, she had always been like this, which made it very difficult for him not to care for her.That was also why he could not stop worrying about her.At Bassburgh, in the hospital…Freyja woke up in the middle of the night and wanted to get out of bed, but Colton pushed her back down. “Don’t move. You have to rest.”She felt helpless. “But I want to go to the bathroom.”Colton took a potty out from the bottom of the bed and handed it to her.She felt extremely embarra
Shannon nodded.Help finally arrived at the scene at about 8:30 a.m., and all of them got in the minivan, left the mountains, and returned to the hotel at the foot of the mountain.The other crew members finally breathed a sigh of relief.James walked toward Daisie. “You guys are finally back. I’ve been worried all night.”Daisie placed her hands behind her back, looking like she had always been in control of the whole situation. “What’s there to worry about? It was just a blizzard, wasn’t it?”He grinned. “I think with your husband there, you won’t even be afraid of the apocalypse, right?”They went back to their respective rooms, took a hot shower, changed into clean clothes, and went down to the restaurant for breakfast.Daisie drank a mug of warm almond milk and was revived from all the fatigue as her stomach warmed up.James sat across from her with his plate of breakfast and looked around. “Why isn’t your husband here for breakfast?”Daisie picked up her fork and started
Tiffany’s expression dimmed. “Why would it have something to do with Assistant Director Gosling? I can tell that he’s not someone who’s stupid enough to take fancy to a married woman who likes to flirt around with other men.”The two giggled and did not say anything else.After their meal, Daisie and James left the restaurant. The two stood in front of the elevator and waited.However, when the door opened and the people in the elevator came out, James pulled Daisie, who kept staring at her phone.Who knew that his actions would be captured by someone from afar until the two of them walked into the elevator together?In Zlokovia, at Bassburgh…Freyja went to the nursery to visit her baby. She glanced at the tiny figure in the incubator through the window, and her heart was about to melt.“Freyja.”She turned around and was slightly startled. “Mrs. Goldmann?”Maisie smiled at her and walked to the window. “Isn’t the baby adorable?”Freyja nodded. “Yeah, she’s indeed really ado
“You brat, are you telling me that you dislike it?” Maisie turned the baby in her arms toward him. “You’d better come up with the name that you want for your daughter in front of her right now. If she laughs, we’ll name her using the name that you want. But if she cries, you’ll just have to accept the fact that she’ll be called Hope for the rest of her life.”Colton was dubious. “Can... Can she even understand it?”Maisie waved her hand. “Whether Hope will understand it or not is the least of your worries. Go for it now.”Colton stared at the little girl, who still looked a little wrinkled in the swaddle, and seemed a little embarrassed.‘I’m not really competent when it comes to naming my own daughter.’He then looked at Freyja.Freyja froze for a split second. “Don’t stare at me. I can’t think of a better name than Hope.”Colton crossed his arms. “My sister’s name is Daisie, named after the flower daisy. If I call my daughter Hope Goldmann, there will be one too many names in
The next day, Gina provided all the evidence to the court. Everything she gave showed the court that her husband cheated on her, made her a victim of domestic violence, and even attempted to kidnap their biological son to force her into filing the divorce without asking for a single penny. She asked the court to get things moving as soon as possible.Derrien also provided the court with more important information and evidence, which pointed to the fact that Ronald intended to kill his wife.Gina never thought of this and was shocked by it. “H-He wanted to kill me?”Derrien nodded. “After you fainted at Ms. Blueman’s place, Mr. George didn’t show any intention of rescuing you. Instead, he planned to kill you and bury your body in order to get rid of all evidence. You would've died that day if someone else hadn’t heard the commotion and come to your rescue.“Gina’s face paled.‘What kind of man have I been married to all these years? My husband actually wanted to kill me for a mistr
