His expression was cold, too.Michael was startled for a moment, but he saw nothing amiss. He thought for a second and replied, "Indeed. Many people are expected to attend the big party that Alice will hold that day. It will just take a little thing to turn the scene into chaos. If we take that opportunity to cause some accident to happen to Sean, no one will trace it back to us."At this point, he would prefer Sean to just die. He would take pleasure to see the son of his elder brother died at his own birthday party and his elder brother in grief and despair for the rest of his life. He wished that Ricky and his family would never recover again, and he would have full control of Anderson Corporation.Michael smirked. "Time to figure out how we can turn that family upside down on that day." He spoke with furor as if he wanted to return all the pain he had experienced before, all at once."Yeah, better not leave any traces behind." Todd grimaced and agreed. At that moment, the fathe
He explained the purpose of his visit with an expectant look in his eyes. And, at that moment, he also noticed the things on the table. He had seen them before, and they were for Sawyer.Molly stared at him and said with a soft but hesitant voice, "That's not very appropriate, isn't it?" 'Of course, I can help. But, that has to depend on the occasion.'"It's not appropriate for me to accompany you, isn't it?" Molly said again.No matter how big the party was, it was still a family dinner. The nature and significance of bringing her to this occasion were obviously different. Besides, everyone knew what Sean's mother was up to. If she tagged along to the party, it would give the impression that she was trying to make her presence felt, and Mrs. Anderson would just think that she was a nuisance. Acting as a shield for Sean was going to be a tough job."It's okay. I'll be with you." Sean reassured her.'How is it okay?' Molly subconsciously stared at him. "It's your family party. It
Sean did what he said he would do, and the dresses were delivered in the evening. Along came a woman in a suit, who was the manager in charge of these dresses."Hello, Miss May. My name is Katy. Mr. Anderson has asked us to bring the dresses for you to try on. Shall we get started now?" Katy asked with a smile and a respectful attitude."Okay." Molly agreed straight away.Following immediately, racks after racks of gowns hanging were wheeled in. Not only Molly but the triplets were also stunned. This was the kind of scene that they had only seen on TV."Mommy, hurry up and try on these dresses." The triplets could not wait. They were especially looking forward to what their mother would look like when she came out in those dresses."Go ahead and try it," Sean said with a smile.Molly nodded and followed Katy into a fitting room. "Miss May has a perfect figure. These dresses are all limited edition, so they would not fit everyone. But, it looks just right on you. Those who don't
"I have never seen any woman who can wear a gown so well. Surely only my sister can do that." Brycen did not feel cheeky at all."The red one just now is the best. Mommy has a queenly look." When it comes to the dresses Molly tried on, the triplets could not help but give their opinions."Mommy fits best in that white one, exactly like the princess in the fairy tale. So, when the time comes, why don't you wear that white dress and go out with Uncle?""Wear the first one, the silver one. Don't you guys think that mommy is like a fairy in that one?"Molly listened with amusement while the few of them were discussing among themselves.At that point, Sean was heard saying, "Every single one of them fits. Let's keep them all."'Such a lavish generosity only befits Mr. Anderson.' Brycen could not help but cast a glance at him."Huh? No, no. I just need one. These dresses are not everyday clothes. I can't wear them all even if I want that many." Besides, if she remembered correctly,
"Hello, Sharon." Alice smiled. She was standing in the crowd when she caught a glimpse of Sharon in the corner of her eye. She then excused herself from chatting with the other ladies.Looking at the slender and elegant Sharon appearing in front of her, Alice could not help but break into a smile. "You look gorgeous today. Of all the ladies here tonight, you are the one who shines the brightest." She was in a good mood today, as she made a rare flattery remark.Sharon dropped the hem of the skirt in her left hand and clasped her hands in front with a smile. "Thank you for your compliment, Mrs. Anderson. I could not look more ordinary enough." She showed great humility as she looked at Alice. "I'm happy that you find me appealing."This succeeded in pleasing Alice."Look, what a good girl she is!" Alice smiled and pulled at Ricky beside her.Sharon smiled and handed Ricky the present she had prepared and gave her best wishes. This pleased both of them even more.As they talked, th
Alice didn't look too happy either. She was startled for a moment when she first saw Molly appear.'What does this woman have to do with the Anderson family party? How dare she stick to my son!'Anger surged within her, but she knew that this was a public place. So, Alice had no choice but to fight back her anger and shot a knife-like look at Molly.'If this was my house, there's no way that Molly would be allowed in. Dream on. Don't even think about it.'Sharon was happy to have won the favor of Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, and while she was at it, she saw Molly. Her expression turned grave as if she had been hit in the head. The manicure she had made especially for the party was digging into her palms. Her heart was filled with jealousy. But, she still maintained a dignified and magnanimous look with a smile on her face as she took the initiative to greet Molly with a nod. But, the way Sean and Molly walked together just now caused Sharon's heart to twinge. It hurt so much that she alm
Once the party started, Molly followed Sean every inch of the way, since she did not know where else to go.Many people cast their eyes toward the two of them from time to time. Some women who intended to talk to Sean were hesitant to go forward because of Molly. As this went on for a long time, everyone had formed a perception inside their heads: they must be a couple. The woman was following Sean so closely that with a little use of the brain, one could figure out what this meant. It was to tell people like them not to make a fool of themselves, and that Sean was taken. Everyone in the ballroom was a prominent figure, and no matter how eager they were, no one would not approach Sean, lest people would talk about them behind their backs after they left the hotel. As ladies of prominent families, they had dignities to take care of. As slow-witted as Molly was, she could already tell how people were looking at her just by looking at their faces. She leaned close to Sean and said, "
"Miss May, Mrs. Anderson would like to see you." It was the manager of the hotel who came to deliver the message.'Mrs. Anderson?' Molly lowered her eyes and thought for only two seconds, then stood up and followed the hotel manager out and into the VIP lounge. Alice was looking for her, probably because of Sean."I will be blunt. We, in the Anderson family, will not accept a woman like you." Alice watched the door closed and shot a stern warning at Molly. "Why don't you take a look in the mirror and see what you're made of? I heard you have already had three children. Do you still think you can remarry and become a noble lady of some sort? You should at least ask around which decent family would keep someone like you? My son is distracted momentarily." Alice directed all of her anger for the night at Molly. She could not understand how Molly could be so thick-skinned and follow her son to the party. 'Does she really think that the Anderson family is so easy?'Molly acted as if she
Chapter 1882Chester thought this was a good idea. After deliberation, he said, "Then, let's send some people over from the Dark Group."The Grandset had eight groups on the surface, but in reality, there was a secret Dark Group.The Dark Group's members were trained by Chester. Almost all of them were experts in ancient martial arts.Moreover, they were good at scouting, tracking, and counter-tracking, far more capable than the five Asura Kings.Sean looked at him and said, "That's exactly what I want to do. They're the only ones capable of this mission. Ordinary people can't accomplish it."Chester nodded. "Got it. I'll arrange it as soon as possible. I hope things will turn out well. "Sean nodded. They chatted for a while longer before Chester left.In the evening, Sean returned to his place, and Molly was still awake.She had already taken a shower and was leaning against the bedhead, reading a book about ancient medical techniques.Sean casually put his jacket aside, wa
Chapter 1881Chester left with Sean's orders and quickly told everyone.However, despite the advance notice, some of the family heads in several unmanaged districts were still missing for the next two days.The forces under the Martial Art Union also suffered from the impact.Sean sensed that something was wrong.People were missing in the Martial Art Union and the unmanaged areas, but the Grandset was fine.It was definitely not a good sign.Sean quickly called an emergency meeting.The next morning, all the hall masters gathered in the conference room of the temporary base.Everyone was seated at the large round table.Sean was the last to come in. Everyone stood up and respectfully greeted him. "Master."Sean nodded lightly in response.After taking the seat of honor, he got straight to the point and said, "I presume you know why you are summoned here. Many family heads have disappeared recently, which has caused panic among the people."Only we are left unharmed."S
Chapter 1880Mr. Ballard sighed resignedly, “We have no other choices now. The Martial Art competition will be held in two days. Hope nothing else will happen.”“Although we haven’t gotten any news from the Martial Art Union, we should be prepared for attacks and continue to prepare the medicine.”Molly also felt disturbed. The situation was still uncertain, and they couldn’t slack off.If the Martial Art Union attacked them in advance and they hadn’t been prepared, they would be in danger.“I think so. Now that it’s true, we’d better return to the hospital. The hospital must be in chaos. Molly...”Mr. Ballard looked at Sean and Molly worriedly.Molly was afraid that Sean would disagree and said immediately, “I would like to return to the hospital with you.”Sean nodded, “Remember to take a rest when you’re tired. I will ask the driver to drive you to the hospital.”The next day, the Martial Art Union made an announcement as expected.The Martial Art Union: [Recently, many he
Chapter 1879Sean ordered immediately, "Arrange more people to look for them, while secretly protecting the remaining clan leaders. Don't act rashly and alarm the enemy, so as not to raise new issues.""Moreover, send some people to look into the matter secretly, and keep a close watch on the Martial Art Union."Tony nodded, "Okay, Mr. Anderson. I'll do it right away."After finishing his words, he left hurriedly.Looking at the partial information Tony had previously compiled about clan leaders' disappearance, Sean pinched his brow. Sean mused, feeling that this matter wasn't simple.A few moments later, the office door was knocked again, "Sean, may I come in?"Molly's voice came outside the door.Hearing this, Sean adjusted his expression and got up to open the door.He gently took Molly's hand and led her into his office to sit down, "Why are you guys here at this hour? Are you not feeling well?"He asked Molly softly, smoothing her hair."No, I'm fine. It's just that Mr.
Chapter 1878Sean looked at the woman in his arms with tender eyes.He wiped the water droplets off the corners of Molly's mouth and asked, "Do you want to sleep for a while? I'll wake you up when the meal is ready."Molly didn't refuse.Unwilling to part with her, the three kids had talked to her till late hours last night.And she had to get up early this morning to catch the plane. She was indeed a little tired.Now that she had nothing to do, she could take a rest and refresh herself.Soon, Molly went to bed and slept.Sean watched over her.Later, the maid got the meal ready, and he woke up Molly.The next morning, Molly woke up to find the man beside her was gone.A note was left on the bedside table. "Don't forget to have breakfast. I have something to do and will come back tonight."She looked at the note and felt anxious.It seemed that she too had to quickly enter working mode. After breakfast, Molly quickly tidied up and went straight to the hospital.What ha
Chapter 1877Mr. Ballard smiled happily, “OK. I will take you there personally!”After they chatted for a while, Molly went to visit the hospital. Then she went to the villa to take a rest with Sean.The villa was close to the hospital. Before they went there, Sean arranged for someone to buy it.Sean’s purpose was to let Molly go to the hospital and back conveniently.After Sean carried the luggage into the villa, he said to Molly who sat on the couch, “Have a look at the villa. Tell me if you lack anything. I will buy them for you.”Molly looked around and shook her head, “Everything is available here. If I need anything else, I will tell you.”Sean smiled, put down the luggage, poured a cup of water for her, and asked with concern, “Are you tired?”Molly replied honestly, “Only my legs ache.”Hearing that, he sat beside her immediately and massaged her legs gently.Seeing that he was so considerate, she smiled and felt happy.A few minutes later, Molly felt much better an
Chapter 1876Mr. Ballard felt proud of himself, seeing the surprised expressions on Molly's and Sean's faces."What do you think of the temporary medical base we set up?" he asked, fixing his eyes on Sean.Sean, who understood what the old man meant, smiled in response. "Very good. Even better than I expected."As they chatted, they walked into the base."Mr. Ballard."Every person in a white coat greeted Mr. Ballard with respect.And they were amazed by the presence of Molly and Sean.The two were outstanding in appearance and temperament.Mr. Ballard nodded in response to the greetings while introducing the layout of the base to Molly and Sean.Molly looked around and asked curiously, "Are these people all doctors?"Given Mr. Ballard and Logan's strength, she thought that they could gather dozens of people at most.After all, this matter was full of danger.But those in front of her probably numbered in the hundreds, even thousands.Seeing an impressed Molly, Mr. Ballar
Chapter 1875The next day, Molly recuperated in the bedroom.Sean was worried about her and specially worked in the bedroom.The three kids were also there.They joked or told interesting things from time to time. Molly was amused by them and wore a smile on her face all the time.Molly had persuaded Sean and thus was in a good mood.Within two days, she looked much better.Mr. Ballard, Logan, and the others were relieved and could go to do logistic work at ease.On the day when they set off, Molly saw them off at the door.She looked at them and reminded them carefully, “Please pay attention to your safety. If anything happens, contact us immediately.”Mr. Ballard urged Molly to return to the room, “I see. Don’t worry. You can return to your room and take a rest now. You haven’t totally recovered yet.”Logan and Lesley nodded and echoed, “Uncle Jordan is right. We will take care of Uncle Jordan.”Yolanda said, “Don’t worry. You will go to find us with Mr. Atherton soon.”
Chapter 1874The next morning, bright sunlight streamed in through the window and woke Molly up. She saw three little ones guarding her, staring at her with an intense gaze."Mommy, you're awake," they exclaimed happily."How do you feel, Mommy? Is there anywhere uncomfortable?"Molly's heart warmed at their care and she smiled gently. She raised her hand and rubbed their heads lightly, saying softly, "I'm fine. You don't need to worry."Sitting beside her, Sean watched the interaction between Molly and the children with tender eyes. He instructed the little ones, "You stay here with Mommy. I'll go get Jordan to check on her and have breakfast delivered.""Daddy, go ahead," the little ones replied, waving their hands without looking back.Sean left with a smile, and he soon returned with Jordan and Logan. Upon seeing Molly leaning against the bed, Brycen squeezed through the crowd to come to her side."Molly, it seems you are fine now!" he exclaimed with concern, his dark
