Joelle spoke with a sweet smile as soon as she entered the house, "Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, I've come to pay you a visit."Her smile was so cheerful that it looked like a blooming flower in spring. It could brighten one's day up just by looking at it.Alice immediately greeted Joelle enthusiastically after seeing her, "Joelle, you've been discharged? Have a seat over here.""Thank you, Mrs. Anderson. I just left the hospital today. I'm so sorry for worrying you when I was in the hospital these few days."Joelle smiled gently and placed the fruits on the coffee table. Her movements looked just like a gracious lady.That was also what Alice liked about her the most. Her presence felt very classy, subtle, docile, and respectful.Only a woman like this could be good enough for her son!However, Alice already had three grandchildren, and the impression she had of Molly had changed too. So, she became a little less affable to Joelle."Joelle, you've become so much skinnier after stayin
Joelle chatted with Alice for a while more after that before leaving.She looked back at the huge mansion after walking out the door. She squinted, and she felt a little reluctant.'Why would Alice treat me so differently all of a sudden?'I'm sure that something went wrong. I have to find out what exactly happened!' …Sawyer's art exhibition began at ten o'clock in the morning as scheduled.Brycen brought Grandpa Dave, Molly, the triplets, and Sean there.They were a little worried that nobody would show up at the exhibition before reaching there.After arriving, they realized that they were just overthinking!They could see that the organizer heavily promoted Sawyer's art exhibition. The venue was already filled with people when they got there."Alex, Ben, Claudia, stay close to me. Don't get lost." Molly grabbed the triplets' little hands and spoke.The place was very packed, and Molly had to ensure the triplets' safety!As for Tony, he followed behind Molly while pushi
So, Lara brought all of them to a five-star restaurant for a meal after the exhibition ended.Sawyer's art exhibition was a huge success. A few collectors who attended the exhibition actually offered him a high price to buy his art pieces.The Mays felt very happy for Sawyer after knowing about that.They could not stop praising him at the dining table. "Sawyer, I am so proud to see you becoming so successful. Let's drink to that."Sawyer did not expect that so many people would show up at his art exhibition either!He received a lot of support and praise during his exhibition. Somebody there even called him an artistic genius!Sawyer still felt a little unreal when he thought about what had happened in the exhibition.So, he lifted his glass and humbly said, "I was just lucky to be able to make this art exhibition happen, and it's far from being a successful one. Painting is just a hobby of mine. However, I need to thank all of you here for coming and showing your support today
Brycen's words immediately snapped Walter and Lara back into reality.They were stunned as they continued to listen to Brycen. "Molly is already being very nice to forget about the past and sit at the same table to have a meal with you both. So, please don't get over your heads."Even grandpa and I wouldn't ask when Molly will get married or how her relationship with Sean is going, so there's really no reason for you to get involved. Otherwise, you could only blame yourselves if Molly decided to cut you off entirely."Walter and Lara became silent after what Brycen said.And, Lara regretted what she did very much!The alcohol really did her dirty. She already knew that Molly dislike her, and there was just no way that Molly would let her decide when she should get married.Walter's face turned apologetic as if he was feeling guilty about what he had said just now.'Why did I even say that? I wish I could give myself a big slap right now!'As for Molly, she had no words for what
Molly needed help the most from her family when she suddenly got pregnant, but she was chased out of the family instead.However, Walter and Lara immediately tried to patch things up with her when they finally came to their senses now.It was just absurd for them to do such a thing.Molly was never going to forgive her parents this easily anyway."Forget it. Let's not talk about this. Sean, I want to watch a movie."After saying that, Molly turned to look at Sean and spoke softly. "A new movie just came out recently. Do you want to watch it with me? We'll just watch it at home.""Sure."Sean had no problem with that. Then, he brought Molly and the triplets to his home theatre to watch that movie.However, Molly fell asleep not long into the movie.She tilted her head and leaned on Sean's shoulder, feeling very at ease.Sean turned to his side and found out that Molly had already fallen asleep on his shoulder. The triplets, who were sitting at the front, fell asleep too while
"Ricky, when we do think we can officially acknowledge the triplets as our grandchildren?"Alice took a bite of her food and said dully while chewing it.Ricky was not thinking about anything like that. He took a piece of chicken and put it into his bowl before he comforted Alice. "Calm down. It's going to happen in just a matter of time. Didn't Sean tell us to give him some time? You should just sit back and wait patiently."Alice sighed sorrowfully. "Guess that's my only choice, then."The butler walked briskly toward them after Alice said that. "Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, Ms. Herring is here," he spoke softly."Ms. Herring?" Alice was not expecting Joelle to be there at all."Mrs. Anderson, it's me."A soft voice spread across the room. Joelle was wearing a light green sweater and a pair of white knitted trousers as she walked into the house gracefully.Alice looked over and smiled gently, "Joelle, it's you! What brings you here? Have you had dinner? Come and eat something if yo
The look on Joelle's face froze. She was not expecting Alice to agree with what she suggested so quickly.She thought that Alice would at least pretend and say something to stop her from leaving.However, she was wrong about everything!'It seems like she doesn't want me to be her daughter-in-law anymore.'Has she really accepted Molly?'No! Why?! How is Molly better than me?!'Joelle's anger boiled inside her as her eyes watered. She felt mistreated, and she had the urge to cry.However, she did not dare to reveal too much of her emotions in front of Alice. She was the one who suggested quitting, after all.So, she tried her best and put on a smile before thanking them, "Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, thank you for your understanding. I'll be going back to work for my grandpa tomorrow, then. I'm going to organize a banquet after I go back, and I'll send an invitation to you. I hope that both of you can make some time to attend."I'm sure that grandpa will be very happy if both of you
At dinner, Sean just would not stop putting food on Molly and the triplet's plates. "You got skinnier. Eat more!" he said."No. I'm trying to lose weight."Molly put the chicken breast meat back on Sean's plate after saying that."You're already very skinny." Sean comforted her and gave her back the meat."Hm. I actually got two pounds heavier. You just can't tell," Molly said and put the meat back on his plate again. That piece of meat looked very oily, and there was just no way that Molly would eat it. It just felt too sinful for Molly to put that into her belly.The triplets, who were sitting beside them, could not stand to see them going back and forth like that anymore."I’ll eat it if mommy doesn't want to!"The little one grunted and spoke. Then, he took the meat from Sean and placed it on his own before demolishing it with one bite."Hm. Mr. Butler is such a good cook. It's delicious." He gave it a thumbs-up after eating it.Sean and Molly were amused. After that, they
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
