Bonnie started crying out loud in Diana’s arms. Perhaps their loud argument had frightened her.“Oh, what’s wrong, Bonnie? Are you not feeling well again?” Diana had secretly pinched Bonnie just now. It was just that she did not expect her to cry so loudly.She could not watch Penelope be rendered speechless in the argument just now. After all, Penelope was her biggest supporter.“Oh, what a good girl. I think she heard her father’s voice. She wants her father to carry her,” Mrs. York said.Simon shifted his attention back to the baby, whose face was flushed from all the crying. He frowned and said, “Give her to me.”Diana listened to him obediently. She carried the baby over to him at once and told Bonnie, “Alright, you’re in your father’s arms now. Don’t cry anymore.”Sharon came over to look at the child as well. Bonnie stopped crying once Simon took her in his arms. Could she really recognize her father?“I told you that Little Miss Bonnie wanted her father to carry her. I w
Diana looked at Penelope in confusion. She asked her anxiously, “You’re asking me to hand the baby to President Zachary? Why should I do that?” Sharon was back now. If she sent the baby over, would she not be handing the baby over to Sharon? By then, she would not have a reason to stay here. She was afraid that Simon would arrange for her to move somewhere else. “The baby likes him. It’s better for the baby to be with him.” “But…” “I know what you’re worried about. Everything that you’re worried about won’t happen. Even if you give him the baby, it’ll be impossible for Sharon to be her mother. Furthermore… it’d be easier to take action once she gets close to the baby.” Diana did not understand what she was implying. “Don’t you want her to leave the Zachary household?” Penelope looked her straight in the eye. “I…” Diana bit her lip. She did not dare to express her intentions. Penelope chuckled understandingly. “You can tell me anything. Furthermore, I’m asking yo
Simon had no choice but to let go of the woman in his arms.Sharon sighed in exasperation. She was also a mother. She knew that having a baby indeed came with a lot of inconveniences. “Go look at your darling daughter. Maybe she needs you to coax her.”Instead of rushing to open the door, he stared at her heatedly. He pinched her face and asked her in a husky voice, “Are you angry?”“What’s there to be angry over?” She was not angry at all.He held her face and lowered his face to kiss her lips. His low voice was full of romantic connotations, revealing his unwillingness to leave. “Wait for me.”After he finished speaking, he deliberately bit her lip! Sharon’s lip felt numb. It hurt, but not a lot. She pretended to be angry and glared at him. “Don’t you know that it’s not the right time for this?” Simon fixed a dark and heavy gaze on her. “Huh?”Diana knocked on the door once again since he did not open the door and she could not hear any sounds coming from inside the room.
“Alright, Bonnie will stay here tonight,” Simon said when he noticed how well the baby got along with Sharon. Sharon did not mind. She was experienced in taking care of children. This was the main reason why Diana had sent the baby over. However, she hesitated the moment she saw Sharon carrying the baby. She was afraid that she would no longer be Bonnie’s mother once she handed the baby to Sharon! Although the child was small, she had a knack for sensing things. She still did not recognize Diana as her mother up till now. Diana remained silent as she seemed to be stuck in a stupor. Luckily, Mrs. York reacted just in time. She said, “I’ll stay here if the child stays here. I’ll help you guys take care of her so that both of you won’t be exhausted.” Simon did not want Sharon to be too tired as well. Furthermore, she had just returned. Therefore, he agreed to let Mrs. York stay the night. “Miss Jeans, I’ll leave the baby to you. I… I’ll return to the courtyard first.”
He looked sideways and fixed his dark gaze on the woman beside him. “I’m just thinking about how great I feel now.” That was why he did not want to fall asleep so soon. She laughed and said, “Why don’t you just say that it’s great to have me by your side?” He pinched her chin with his long, slender fingers and said, “I don’t know how to engage in sweet talk, but I can learn how to say the words that you want to hear from me.” Sharon shook her head and said, “It’s alright. It’s better if you just act normally.” “Do you mean that I’m acting abnormally right now?” He raised his brow as his handsome face inched closer to her. His narrowed eyes exuded a dangerous air. “I guess so,” she continued provoking him fearlessly. Simon’s heart twitched as he stared at her lovely, animated eyes. He recalled their breathtaking kiss just now, which he had not gotten enough of. He held her chin and lowered his head to kiss her. Sharon took in a deep breath and turned around to evade h
Sharon was awoken by the sound of a woman crying. When she opened her eyes, she realized that Simon was not beside her.The woman’s crying went on and off for a while. There were sounds of people talking as well, but she could not hear it clearly.She suddenly remembered that Bonnie was staying in the guest bedroom. Was Mrs. York crying? Did something happen to Bonnie?At the thought of this, she suddenly got up.She did not pause to think about why she cared so much about the baby.She left the master bedroom and entered the living room. Once she opened the door, she could clearly hear the sound of a woman crying. It was not Mrs. York. Diana was the one crying.From her cries, it seemed like she was extremely upset. “Why are you crying here early in the morning?” Sharon looked at Diana in confusion. Diana immediately wiped her tears away when she saw her. “Sorry, did I wake you up?” she asked in a choked voice.She noticed that Sharon was still in her sleeping gown. Her lon
Sharon could not help but think that Diana was being rather considerate toward Simon. ...Diana had been gone for three days. During these three days, Mrs. York and Bonnie stayed in the guest bedroom. Usually, Sharon would help to take care of the baby. Simon went to work and got off work as usual. After returning home, he would coax the baby. It seemed like the baby was closer to him. Sometimes, Sharon had the illusion that Bonnie was their daughter. They were a family... However, whenever she caught sight of Mrs. York sitting by the side, she instantly got pulled back to reality. This was not the baby she had given birth to...Sharon was in the garden to look for materials that she needed to formulate her fragrances today. There were all sorts of exquisite flora planted in the garden of the Zachary household. She recently got the idea of coming here to look for the materials that she needed. As soon as she walked into the garden, she caught sight of a stroller. Bonnie w
Simon was not at home. Therefore, Mrs. York rushed over to look for Sharon. Sharon poked her head out of the flowerbeds. Upon noticing the panicked expression on Mrs. York’s face, she walked out in confusion. “What happened?” “Little Miss Bonnie suddenly started vomiting and having diarrhea. I don’t know what happened to her, but if this continues, she definitely won’t be able to take it.”Sharon was shocked after hearing what Mrs. York said. She frowned and said, “She was alright when she was with me just now. How can this be?” She had even fed Bonnie some warm water just now. Bonnie had smiled at her back then. Everything seemed normal.She returned to the house with Mrs. York. Mrs. York shook her head and said, “I find it odd as well. She was alright just now. Why is she suddenly vomiting and having diarrhea?”“Prepare to leave at once. I’ll ask the butler to get the car ready. We’ll bring the baby to the hospital at once.” They could not handle an emergency situation like th
