He shouldn't let his child go through what he went through.
Listening to this, Heloise had to admit that Reginald's decision was quite wise. If the child born had the same concerns about their genes as he did, it could torment them for a lifetime. Besides, she had never thought about having children for him. So, taking birth control pills was the safest and most advantageous option for both of them.
"Is there no cure for this illness?" Heloise skipped the topic of children and asked.
"Do I, Reginald, not have the money? If there were a cure, wouldn't I have taken it?" Reginald replied.
"But what about the Gonzalezes? Surely, among them, there are people who have never been sick for their whole lives?" Heloise inquired again.
At this, Reginald's gaze deepened. "Yes, there are people who have never been sick for their entire lives. As long as they don't get sick, they are no different from normal people."
"Then, isn't that fine?"
Helois
Heloise, carrying her bag, pretended not to notice and turned to leave. On her way, she bumped into a group of girls, and a sharp voice mocked, "Taking a test and still carrying banners. Some people really overestimate themselves, thinking they're some kind of celestial being. Disgusting."Hearing this, Heloise coldly raised her gaze. The leader of the group was a young girl in a white dress, holding books, with long straight black hair, appearing refined and scholarly. However, the girl's complexion was somewhat pale, giving her an unwell appearance.The other girls surrounded her, and the one who spoke was a girl named Bena, who used to be Coral's lackey.Seeing this, Heloise couldn't help but sneer. She looked at Bena and said, "Oh, you changed masters, have you?""You're the one who changed masters. What nonsense are you spouting?" Bena was so angry she could explode on the spot."Heloise said you're a dog, and not a loyal one!" Abel hurriedly
This day's exam was not peaceful for Heloise.In the bright and spacious classroom, Heloise just found her seat when she discovered that the chair was broken—clearly damaged deliberately.Glancing at the students around her, she noticed the presence of the little followers who were previously with Tricia. It was somewhat amusing; she wondered which nerve they had touched to decide to play a prank on her.Heloise sneered but didn't say anything. She simply informed the invigilator and got the chair replaced. However, the ten minutes before the exam was wasted.After sitting down again, she looked at the exam paper in front of her. There were two regular papers and an additional difficult test paper underneath.The instructions stated that anyone could attempt it or ignore it, and it wouldn't affect the grading.She started answering the questions, her writing speed surprisingly fast. At the twenty-minute mark, she had already completed
The atmosphere was so tense that even classmates noticed something was off. Someone stood up for Heloise, saying, "Professor Campbell, hasn't the computer arrived yet?"Professor Campbell, sitting at the front, sipped from his water cup and replied, "I've already made the call. If the person hasn't delivered the computer, what can I do?"It seemed like he hadn't actually ordered anyone to bring it.Heloise sat in her seat, smirking.Another student spoke up, "But we've been taking the exam for half an hour. Even if it's delivered now, will Miss. ThankGod has enough time to answer? Are you going to give her extra time?"In response, Professor Campbell said in an indifferent tone, "In my exams, no matter the situation, everyone is treated equally. Who knows if she deliberately caused this delay, waiting for everyone to finish before taking the test, hoping to get some answers."With these words, the whole room became restless. Students looked
Reginald looked at the road ahead, one hand on the steering wheel, the other holding hers, pushing the gear into drive, and stepping on the gas pedal."..."Heloise wanted to pull her hand back."Don't move."Reginald's long fingers tightly held hers, the warmth of his palm pressed against hers, not allowing her to take her hand away. He drove with one hand on the steering wheel and the other on the gearshift.He is so casual.Heloise looked at her hand, trapped in his, feeling somewhat helpless. She didn't bother arguing with him; she just let it be.Suddenly, Heloise thought of something and felt the need to tell him, "I ran into your sister at university.""Whose sister?"Reginald glanced down at their intertwined hands, the curve of his lips lifting even more, and only after a few seconds did he register her words. "You mean the Wordsworth’s one?"The one who seemed to be studying at Imperial University.
Uh. Showering with money, indulging with life—this Mr. Wordsworth raises canaries; it's not something ordinary people can imitate.Ben waited in the car and finally received a call from the bodyguard. He picked up the phone and asked, "Is it done for correcting? ""Ben... Ben, is Mr. Wordsworth arranging for someone to change the grades?"The bodyguard on the other end stuttered, his tone full of disbelief."How is that possible? What happened?"Ben asked."Oh, nothing." The bodyguard's voice on the phone was absent-minded. "So, I had the school change Miss's S+ to an A. It's strange, why would the grades be lowered?""If you're told to change, then change. Why so much... Wait, what did you say?" Ben was shocked, his eyelashes lifting. "You said Miss's what grade?""S+," replied the bodyguard."Miss got an S+?" Ben asked in disbelief."Yes, I checked. This time, the Law School only had one S+, and it's Miss,
Heloise listened without much surprise on her face."Wow, she's actually so amazing?""Which school did she attend before? Why haven't I heard of her? Did she study abroad?"The discussion buzzed around.Tricia sat there, her expression frozen, a smile lingering at the corner of her mouth, her face somewhat stiff.Several other girls beside her dared not speak, watching Tricia cautiously.A few seconds later, Tricia stood up, clapping her hands while smiling at Spicy ThankGod. "Congratulations, Spicy."Heloise didn't want to engage with her, but she did have something to say. "Can I join the Talent Society now?""Of course," Tricia said sincerely, "shall we go after class?"Heloise nodded.Tricia smiled, nodded back at her, and then sat down.Professor Campbell was about to skip this incident and continue the class, but the students had already spontaneously started applauding, their applause enthusiastic a
The shredded paper falls down like snowflakes. Fluttering down gracefully.The onlookers stare at her in surprise. In the past, even commoners who made it in would desperately beg to be accepted, some even kneeling and pleading on the ground.After all, the resources of "the Talent Society" were beyond imagination. Who wouldn't want it? Yet, this transfer student, after finally achieving an S+ score, casually tore up the filled-out information form.Where else can you find a transfer student with such a strong temper?She didn't even beg. Isn't it obvious she doesn't care about "the Talent Society"?After scattering the shredded paper, Heloise coldly looks at the faces in front of her. She memorizes them, then turns and leaves, leaving behind a group of astonished people....The twilight light spills into the not-so-large courtyard of Hyacinth Garden. The hyacinth flowers on the wall change color as they reflect the sunlight, dancing
Heloise stared into the man's eyes right in front of her, unable to discern whether he was pleased or angry. Someone of his elite status as a billionaire would probably prefer to have his canary obediently staying in the cage. The greater her abilities, the more restless it might make him feel. "What is it?" Reginald pinched her chin, forcing her closer. He lowered his long lashes, gazing deeply into her eyes, and his thin lips almost touched hers. "I don't even know how capable my own woman is. Isn't that amusing?" Heloise remained silent. "Heloise, I don't like having so many mysteries around you when I'm present," Reginald's possessiveness was overwhelming, "I want all of you, do you understand?" Every bit of her belonged to him. It started again. Heloise didn't expect that even taking an exam would trigger his possessive instincts. Facing his dominating gaze like a deep sea engulfing her, she tried to remain calm. "I am alr
