Eugene held Rue’s hand as they waited for the elevator to arrive. A loud ding sounded as the doors of the elevator opened.Eugene’s expression changed when he saw the person who came out of the elevator. A cold glint flashed across his gaze.It was Jeremy Ziegler. Why was this despicable man here again?Jeremy was not carrying a bouquet of flowers with him this time. He had brought a hamper full of snacks instead. He really knew his way to a woman’s heart. “President Eugene, are you leaving after visiting Fernie?” Jeremy ignored his cold gaze and greeted him.When he heard Jeremy addressing Fern as ‘Fernie’, Eugene’s gaze grew colder and harder.He had to change Fern’s stage name later on. Otherwise, everyone would be allowed to call her ‘Fernie’! “Why are you here again?” Eugene asked in an extremely unwelcoming tone. “I heard that Fernie’s recovery is going well. I happened to become the ambassador of a snack brand recently, so I’m giving these snacks to her.” Jeremy was r
“What if I don’t agree?” Eugene sneered.“That isn’t appropriate, right? Are you going to cause a ruckus in the hospital, President Eugene?” Jeremy would not leave until he saw Fern. He then said, “Furthermore, you don’t have the right to stop me from seeing Fernie unless she doesn’t want to see me herself.”Eugene had never met a person who pestered him so much. He wanted to ask the bodyguards to take him away, but he would cause a scene if he did that.He glanced at his daughter and suddenly thought of something. He smiled and said, “Since you care about her so much, it’ll be cruel of me not to let you in to see her,” he said as he waved at the bodyguards, gesturing for them to let Jeremy in.The moment they entered the ward, Sharon and Fern had just finished chatting. Sharon was preparing to leave.“What did you guys get for Fern?” Sharon asked.“We bought all of Mommy’s favorite foods,” Rue said.Eugene patted Rue’s head and said, “Take these to your mother.”Rue looked at
"Is it not possible for me to be the kid's father?" Eugene counter-questioned Jeremy with a cold smile. It was obvious that he was going to go head-to-head with Jeremy.Jeremy put on a fake smile, saying, "I don’t have a choice in this matter. Even though I don't wish for you to be the father of this child, I can't change that fact.""Now that you know about our relationship, I hope that you'll not come and pester us as often in the future," Eugene said ruthlessly."Then I’d like to ask you a question. Since your kid is already this big, when do you plan to give her and her mother official statuses, President Eugene? You can't be thinking of keeping this a secret forever and not allowing them to step out into society with their heads held up high, right?" Jeremy asked as if he was curious.Eugene frowned. "What does this have anything to do with you?" 'I don't think he has the right to defend Fern, right?'"I just think Fern deserves better. She has already given birth to a child
"Besides, if I don't force her, she'll never acknowledge me as her man or let others know that we have a daughter together."Sharon knew that he was doing this because he was anxious about Fern not accepting him even after all this while. "I just want to say that you should have her accept your way of doing things or else she’ll only take it as you’re harming her.” 'Doesn't he know that being anxious will only make things worse?'Eugene did not listen to any of her advice and helped her open the car door. "Hurry and get into the car. You should go back home now. Your man will come looking for me if you're out for so long.""Do you understand what I just told you?” Sharon was already half-pushed into the car by Eugene. Even so, she still felt uneasy and kept asking."I got it. Hurry and get going." Eugene did not wish to hear another word from Sharon.Bang! The car door was closed. Sharon looked at Eugene outside the window and sighed softly.'His conflict with Fern can be actua
Eugene did not think Fern would take it so seriously. He furrowed his brows and said, "By announcing Rue’s identity, I’m destroying your career as a celebrity? Are you saying that Rue is not as important as your career as a celebrity?” "Stop putting Rue and my career together to make me choose. Both of these can’t be compared," Fern said without any emotion."But from what you said earlier, Rue doesn't sound as important to you." Eugene remained to have a dark gaze. 'If that's the case, I'll consider pulling her out of that industry!'"There’s nothing I can do if you insist on taking it that way." She turned her face away.The man’s shadow engulfed her entire body. She was not aware when he had come to her front. Her chin hurt when his palm grasped her. Eugene's exceedingly handsome face inched closer to her. "Why are you so scared to announce Rue's identity? I think you're not afraid of having your celebrity career destroyed. You're just afraid that others will come to know abou
...Sebastian sneakily came to Simon's front. "Daddy, I’m guessing that you have nothing much going on lately, so you shouldn't need Uncle Claude to protect you, right?"Simon turned around to look at him and raised his long brows. "Why? I let him be your teacher and now you're thinking of snatching him away and making him your own bodyguard?""I didn't mean that.""Then why do you want him?" Simon looked at his son, finding it hilarious.Sebastian let out a soft cough before saying, "I just want you to let him go on a holiday for a few days. He's now in a relationship with Miss White, so please give him some time to go on a date."Simon was astonished. "Did you say he's in a relationship? I don't believe it." With his understanding of Claude, he knew that Claude was not the type to easily fall in love."It's true! If you don't let him go on a holiday, he won’t have time to go on a date and that’ll delay his wedding. If that’s the case, will you help him find a wife in the futur
"Mom, just reject it. I won't attend that, and also, you should stop arranging for me to go on anymore blind dates." Candace was fed up with dealing with those men.Mrs. White frowned. "How can I reject them after inviting them? Besides, he's a professor from overseas and has a great future ahead. I heard he looks stunning as well. No matter what, you should go and have a look.”"Mom, I'll not attend anymore blind dates in the future. It's not like I won't get married."“I know you'll get married, but it has to be to a suitable man. If you don't attend blind dates, how are you going to search for that man?" Mrs. White glanced at her with a puzzled gaze and continued to question, "Could it be that you've found someone?"Initially, Candace did not wish to mention Claude this soon. Currently, their relationship was still just in the initial phases.It was just that her mother would continue to force her to go on blind dates if she did not bring it up. She blushed and blurted out, "Ye
He did not tell her what was in his mind. He just shook his head and said, "I'm just a bachelor, so I'm alright staying anywhere.""So are you saying that if you get yourself a girlfriend, you’ll start a family?" Candace asked directly.It was as if that question muddled him, and after thinking for a long time, he replied, "I’ve never thought of looking for a girlfriend."Candace's expression subtly changed as she kept staring at him, saying, "Then what about me? If I want to be in a relationship with you, will you consider me?"Initially, Claude was stunned, and then, he was anxious. 'Is she confessing to me?'"You…" His body tensed up and he was so nervous that he did not know how to answer.Candace became more proactive and immediately grabbed his hands that were placed on the table. "Don't you like me even the slightest? Am I that terrible?""I… No…" His palms were drenched with sweat."So that means you don't hate me and you can accept me?" she continued to ask."Yes… No…
