Sharon planned to visit Rue after a few days. By then, Eugene’s anger would have dissipated.She received a phone call from Scarlet today.“Sienna? Can you come to the hospital right now? Jimmy has regained consciousness. He keeps insisting on seeing Riley, but I don’t know where she is. He’s disregarding his own injuries just to see her. The nurses are holding him down right now,” Scarlet said in an urgent tone. She was close to begging Sharon.Sharon recalled that it was about time that Jim woke up. If he did not wake up soon, he would fall into a vegetative state as the doctors had said.Sharon did not want to care about him since he had treated Riley badly in the past. However, Riley had selflessly donated her blood to him when he was met with a car accident. That meant that he was still extremely important to Riley.She agreed to visit Jim at the hospital for Riley’s sake.She grabbed her handbag and was just about to leave when Simon appeared behind her in his wheelchair. “
Sharon suddenly burst out into laughter. “Even I don’t believe what you’re saying. Do you think Riley would believe you?”“Tell me what I have to do to make her believe in me? I can do anything!” It seemed like Jim had his heart set on taking care of Riley.“You’ll do anything? Can you castrate yourself? That way, she’ll definitely believe that you won’t look for women outside anymore because you won’t be able to find one even if you wanted to,” Sharon said with a playful smirk on her face.Scarlet was shocked and shouted out loud, “What are you saying? How can you ask Jimmy to castrate himself? Won’t he become a eunuch that way? Riley wouldn’t want a man like that!”“That’s right. If you’re castrated, you won’t be able to give Riley physical pleasure anymore, but if you don’t do so, she’ll never believe you. What can you do?” Sharon was angry at Jim because of his scumbag behavior in the past. She wanted to joke with him and see what he would choose to do.Jim frowned and said in
Sharon did not tell Jim about Riley’s whereabouts. She did not know where Riley was as well.Riley had not told her where she was going when she left. Sharon had not asked her as well. She knew her best friend’s intentions. She did not want anyone to know where she was headed to.Before she left, Riley had told her that she would return after seeing all the sights outside to her heart’s content. When the time came, she would take the initiative to contact Sharon.Somehow, Jim did not continue asking Sharon about Riley’s whereabouts. His gaze had gone blank. The moment Sharon left, he shouted at her back, “It’s alright if you don’t tell me where she is. I’ll definitely find her anyway!”He had to make sure he recovered. Riley’s blood was flowing in his veins now. He could not make her efforts to save him go to waste.He would look for her after he recovered.Sharon paused momentarily. She did not say anything nor did she turn around. She opened the door and left straight away.
“Hmph, I knew that if we have a daughter, you’d definitely give all of your love to her.” He raised his hand and bopped her on the nose. “Are you being jealous of your own daughter right now?” She had blamed him for being jealous of their son in the past. Did she finally understand how he felt now? “You’re my husband. Of course, I’m jealous,” she blurted out her thoughts at once. She realized what she had said aloud when she noticed his intrigued gaze. An awkward expression formed on her face. “What did you call me just now?” he asked as he pinned a heated gaze on her. Sharon knew that she could not hide anymore. Since she had already said it out loud, what was there for her to be embarrassed about? She cleared her throat and said, “I called you my husband. Aren’t you my husband? Are you not going to acknowledge it now?” “I remember that we haven’t obtained a marriage certificate.” “Nice of you to mention that. You impregnated me before obtaining a marriage certif
Lena got curious when she noticed how unbothered Fern was. It seemed that she did not care if Jeremy was using her for popularity or not. “Fern, do you have someone that you like? President Eugene always gives you special treatment. Are both of you…”Logically speaking, as Fern’s boss, it was normal for Eugene to show her some concern since she had gotten hurt. However, he was at the hospital to look after her and take care of her every day. It would be hard to believe if both of them were not in a relationship.Fern’s calm demeanor vanished when Lena mentioned Eugene’s name. She frowned and immediately clarified, “There isn’t any special relationship between both of us.”Lena found it even more suspicious now. Fern did not mind the dating rumors of her and Jeremy spreading around outside, but she immediately gave a clarification when she mentioned Eugene one time.“Are you sure that there isn’t a relationship between both of us?” Eugene asked as he suddenly appeared. Fern glanced
“Why? Do you still care about her?” he questioned her.Fern took in a deep breath to stabilize her emotions. “I don’t have the energy to talk nonsense with you. Tell me how she is!”Eugene furrowed his brows tightly. Did she think that he was telling her nonsense?“Ask her yourself when you see her,” he said irritatedly.“Can’t you tell me beforehand?” She stared at his stiff but handsome face. Why was he suddenly throwing a tantrum at her?“Didn’t you say that you don’t want to talk nonsense with me? Why should I continue talking to you?”“You…” He was really something else. How could he talk his way out of a situation like this?!“Are you bringing her to the hospital to see me?” She had no choice but to ask him something else.Eugene put one of his hands in his pocket and said, “That depends on you. Would you like to make a video call or should I bring her to the hospital?”Fern thought about it for a while. Her wounds had mostly recovered. She would soon be discharged and b
On the next day, Wyatt showed Eugene an entertainment newspaper. “President Eugene, some paparazzi took photographs of you and the little young miss visiting Miss Fern in the hospital. They published it in the news.” Eugene was seated in the car as they were on the way to the hospital. He took the newspaper from him and looked at it. It was really a photograph of him bringing Rue to the hospital. However, Rue’s face had been covered with mosaic. Her face was not exposed.“Should I contact this publication and ask them to delete the photograph and stop distributing the news at once?” Wyatt thought that Eugene was angry as he had remained silent for a long time. In the past, Eugene would have held this unscrupulous media reporter accountable for their actions. Were they allowed to take photos of his daughter just like that? However, now…“You don’t need to do so for the time being. Ask someone to monitor them. It’s fine as long as they cover Rue’s face with mosaic. They aren’
“Have you lost it? The relationship between the three of us?” Fern asked in shock. She then realized that this was the motive behind everything he was doing. “Are you unwilling to acknowledge that the three of us are a family? Do you want Rue to become an illegitimate daughter?” “I didn’t mean that!” “How long can you hide something like this for? As long as you’re in the entertainment industry, this secret of yours will be exposed sooner or later. If someone exposes it in the future, Rue will be scarred even more badly. Why don’t you just tell everyone about it?” He slowly forced her to acknowledge the relationship between him and Rue.Fern was irritated by his words. She took in a deep breath and said, “That’s enough. Stop talking. I won’t agree to expose Rue’s identity in front of the cameras. I won’t acknowledge that the three of us are a family as well. If you’re doing this for her sake, use your capabilities to ensure that nobody will disturb her!”She would never becom
