But, he was not a stubborn person. He would not force it if Molly did not like him.So, he smiled gently. He then told her about the incident that happened yesterday where Sean asked him for the security footage of the parking lot. Molly was surprised. "So, Queenie will be detained for a month?""Yes. The police have looked at the parking lot's security footage. The consequences would be unthinkable if you didn't dodge it quick enough. Being detained for a month is considered a light punishment for her," Benjamin said calmly.Molly nodded her head. She then sighed, "Actually, it wasn't a big issue. It's just a minor injury. It's fine.""Although it's just a minor injury, we can't just go easy on her. After all, she spilled hot soup on you this time. We wouldn't know what she'd do next." Benjamin sighed. He advised faintly, "Molly, you should care more for your safety. After all, you're a mother of three.""Alright. I understand." Molly nodded obediently. She smiled as she said
Meanwhile, the police station. After a night of interrogation, Queenie was detained in solitary under criminal detention. There was no window in the dark room, and the only light source came from a dim yellow bulb.Queenie looked at that weak light blankly as she felt dead inside.She felt very depressed and suffocating after thinking about how she was going to be stuck here in this room and never see the light of day for the next month. The hatred inside her grew even more ferociously under this threatening environment!'Molly May…'That b*tch is the only reason why I'm in here!'I've never had a good day ever since she appeared in my life.'Queenie could not and did not want to admit that Molly was simply better than her. She was not going to let Molly go that easily. Queenie heard the door of the room being opened when she was all stirred up inside."Queenie!"Gina was so worried about her daughter that she could not sleep for the whole night. 'I have to see my dau
"Are you feeling better today?" asked Sean out of concern after seeing her walking toward him. He was feeling worried for the whole day. He could not stop himself from thinking about her wound, and he could not bear to see her getting so tired.Molly sounded as calm as always. "A lot better. It's just a tiny injury. There's nothing to worry about."Little did she know, the more she did not care about her wound, the more Sean felt distressed about how tough she was. He arched his brows. Although he sounded gentle, he still spoke in a blameful manner. "You shouldn't come to work tomorrow. Just take a few days off and rest at home."Molly smiled and shook her head before she said, "I can't. Benjamin already has a lot to handle these days. I only came here because I wanted to help him. I'm going to add more of his burden if I back out now." Molly tilted her head while looking at him and flashed him a cheeky smile. "Right?"Sean felt helpless and stopped frowning. "Whatever you sa
After that, Molly opened Sean's gift for her.It was a sensational necklace! There were crushed diamonds delicately embedded in it, and it was clearly a customized and premium piece made entirely by hand. It was an expensive one! "Do you like it?" Sean lifted the edge of his mouth, looking handsome."Yeah, I do, but…" Molly arched her fine brows and thought to herself. 'This gift is way too expensive. I can't accept this.'Sean did not give her a chance to reject the gift as he flatly said, "Let me put it on for you."He took the necklace from the table and moved his wheelchair behind her before gently putting the necklace around Molly's neck. His fingertips ran through her hair unknowingly when he put the necklace on for her, and he touched her warm neck. Molly quivered as she suddenly felt numb on her back. She bit her lips and took a deep breath to calm herself down."It looks good."Sean looked at the necklace around Molly's fair neck. The romantic candlelight in the
Alex and Ben were very happy too as they said in a sweet voice, "Thank you, mommy and Uncle Sean!" After that, the triplets sat in a circle and started munching on the cupcakes. Brycen could help but laugh after looking at them. He went to them with a tissue and said, "Look at how dirty your little faces are. Clean yourself with this.""Give me that." Molly reached out to take the tissue.However, Brycen pulled his hand away and sternly said, "I'll do it.""Are you sure? Children's faces are very delicate. Don't hurt them." Molly said in a slightly disdainful manner. "Are you underestimating me? You don't think I can't even handle such a tiny issue?" Brycen held Alex up and started wiping his face with the tissue.Alex's face became even dirtier after Brycen wiped it! Alex pushed Brycen away scornfully. "Uncle Brycen, stop that. My face hurts."Molly could not help but laugh. "Just let me do it.""No, no. Go away. I can handle this!" Brycen did not want to let go of Alex.
Molly came over to check on them too. She rarely played with Lego, and the kids were building an aircraft carrier. So, she had no idea where to place that piece.Sean noticed that they had made a mistake right away when everybody else was still confused.He moved his lips, and he was about to tell them. However, another person beat him to it. "You misplaced this piece over here. This one should be over here…" Nathan had watched them for some time, and he could not help but give them some advice. Everybody paused and looked at Nathan in surprise. Nathan was shocked too. Things got so awkward between them that it felt like time was frozen.The triplets did not know if what Nathan said was true, so they removed the piece that they had placed earlier before placing it in another spot, following Nathan's instruction."We got it!" The triples were impressed to see how the piece fitted perfectly in there. They could not help but shout, "Uncle Nathan, you're so good at this!""Bro,
"You're right." Molly felt that Sean was right, so she pushed him and returned to the hall.At that time, Grandpa Dave, Brycen, the little ones, and others were already sitting at the dining table and were ready.Only Nathan stood aside like an outsider.Grandpa Dave turned around and kindly said to Nathan, "Nathan, it's already dinner time. You should probably head back now."Grandpa Dave knew that Molly and Nathan had a bad relationship. He felt that asking Nathan to stay for dinner would affect the atmosphere, so he did not tell Nathan to stay.Unexpectedly, Nathan looked reluctant to leave. He shamelessly asked, "Grandpa, can I stay and have dinner with all of you? I haven't eaten with you in a long time."Nathan asked with a pleading tone, which shocked both Brycen and Sawyer.Both Brycen and Sawyer had never seen Nathan speak that way before.'Is this really the Nathan we knew?' Brycen and Sawyer thought.Molly felt strange after witnessing that. She thought to herself,
Molly sat still in the same spot, only to feel the enormous pressure!'Forgive him? Then, what about those hurtful things he did to me? How could I forgive him?'Not forgive him? But, Nathan's attitude today is indeed very good. Whether it is to Grandpa, to my children, or me.'Molly was thinking in her head. But, she still felt that she could not conclude anything so soon.After all, can a leopard change its spots?Who knew if Nathan had some other intention in coming to Molly today to show goodwill.So, after giving some thought to it, Molly politely rejected Nathan's good intentions. She said, "Rome wasn't built in a day, and you shouldn't rush it. So, it's best if we talk about this another time."I'm full, so please excuse me!"After that, Molly hurriedly left the dining table and strode upstairs.The rest of the Mays was sitting at their place and exchanging glances with each other.The one who was most embarrassed was Nathan. He could tell from Molly's response that sh
