Fern pondered upon it before smiling faintly at him. “Alright.” She then left the teahouse. Jeremy’s smile slowly vanished as he looked at her silhouette. His narrowed eyes gleamed coldly. She had already started to suspect him. It seemed like he could not use this pawn of his for much longer. He had to use her well before she discovered what he was up to. Fern’s heart remained heavy after walking out of the teahouse. She chose to believe in Jeremy’s words, but she felt like she should distance herself from him. She suddenly thought that things were not as simple as he had mentioned. Actually, she had chosen to escape. She was reluctant to face the possibility that Jeremy was behind everything. If that were the case, what would she do? She unknowingly walked to the center of the plaza. The news was playing on the large LED screen situated along the commercial street. The president of Newton Corporation, Eugene Newton, who was just released from the police station, anno
Fern was already angry at him. Now that he was ordering her to go down, she completely lost control.“Who do you think you are? Must I go down when you ask me to? Can you meet me just because you want to?” “You don’t have to come down. I can go up to you as well.” Hah… This man was seriously shameless! “If you dare to come up, I’ll call the police and tell them that you’re disturbing the residents late at night.” Eugene fell silent for a few seconds, but then he continued speaking in a low tone, “It’s no longer fun if you use the same method twice.” Fern sneered and said, “Calling the police is the best choice when I’m dealing with a shameless man like you.” She paused and continued speaking. “Don’t come here to harass me ever again. Otherwise, I’ll really call the police. You know that I’m not joking.” After speaking, she attempted to hang up. However, Eugene said, “Come down. I want to talk to you about Jeremy. If you don’t listen to me, you’ll definitely regret
When he turned back around to look at her, his eyes were filled with a deep and profound look. It seemed slightly nostalgic but anxious at the same time. His gaze darkened as he ignored her rage and protests. He hugged her tightly in his arms. He then gripped her chin and kissed her on the lips. While she was struggling against his hold, he pressed her down on the seat of the car. Fern was completely pinned down by him right now. She could not even move. She felt like a slab of meat on a chopping board that was waiting to be butchered. She did not know what was wrong with him. Why did he come here just to harass her in the middle of the night? She knew that she could not overpower a madman with her own strength. Suddenly, she stopped struggling against him. It seemed that she was in a state of total despair. As Eugene kissed her ear, he sensed some wetness on her skin. He frowned and stopped. He then raised his head to look at the woman underneath him. She squeezed h
“If this is really a farewell, please never appear in front of me ever again. Since you’re getting married, don’t do something so shameless to me. I don’t want others to call me a mistress.” Fern sat up as she pulled up her collar around herself. “Also, if you dare to do something so treacherous to me again, I won’t call the police anymore. I’ll turn you into a eunuch straight away!” She was infuriated. He was marrying Sydney in a week, but he had tried to take her clothes off and insult her. Eugene narrowed his eyes after listening to her harsh words. Instead of getting angry, he said in an even tone, “Something like this won’t happen ever again. After all, I need to take responsibility for my future wife.” Did he mean that he would stop these dirty habits for his wife? Fern did not want to hear anything about him and Sydney. She pulled the handle of the car door and proceeded to get down from the car. “You’d better do as you say.” She then opened the car door and was about t
Sharon picked up his invitation and looked at it repeatedly. She could not help but let out a sigh. She did not expect things to turn out this way for them. Perhaps there would be a miracle. After all, Simon and she had experienced this in the past as well. They still got together in the end.She did not know that Old Master Newton had threatened him with Fern’s life this time around. Eugene had no choice but to concede to his request. He intended to take responsibility for Sydney after they got married. He would not be a wastrel anymore. Fern wanted to stop acting for the time being. Besides, nobody was willing to hire her anymore. Not long after, Lena called her and told her that she had found a job for her through her connections. A globally-renowned bridal gown shop needed a model with a great aura and a nice figure to shoot a set of promotional photographs. They had shortlisted a lot of models but most of them were lacking in terms of their aura although they had
The customers that Peter, the design director of the bridal gown shop, was serving were Eugene and Sydney! Right, they were about to get married. It was not surprising that they would be getting a bridal gown fitted here. However, Fern thought that she was way too unlucky. Why did she run into them when she was here to be a bridal gown model?!Eugene had seen her as well. She was wearing a fishtail bridal gown, which showed off her voluptuous figure. The inlaid pearls on the neckline of the gown made her look all the more graceful and noble. This was the first time she was wearing a bridal gown… Eugene was mesmerized by the sight of her. He had once thought that he would be married to her. He had wanted to hold a romantic wedding ceremony for her and personally design a bridal gown for her. He wanted to see her putting on a bridal gown just for him, but this would be impossible in this lifetime. He was seeing her in a bridal gown right now, but she was not putting it o
Fern changed out of the bridal gown and handed it to Sydney. While Sydney was trying on the wedding gown, Peter asked his assistant to get the contract. He then signed the contract with Fern. Fern looked through the contract in detail. She prepared to sign it after ensuring that there were no problems with it. Sydney walked out after putting on the gown. The sales assistants were all stunned after seeing her. “Oh, it’s gorgeous. You’re the prettiest bride in the world.” “This gown suits you a lot. It matches your aura well.” Peter walked over to praise her as well. Fern raised her head to look at her. Sydney was not as tall and was considerably petite in size. This gown suited someone with a taller figure, so the hem of the gown seemed way too long for her. “Tsk, the gown doesn’t suit her at all. Those sales assistants and the design director are bullsh*tting her,” Lena whispered in her ear. Fern shot her a meaningful glance to tell her to stop talking. Sydney loo
After Sydney chose the gown that Eugene recommended, she turned to look at Fern and smiled at her. “Thank you for helping me to choose a gown, but Eugene says that this gown suits me better, so I’d better choose this instead.” “You’re welcome. He’s the groom, anyway. Naturally, he’d know which gown suits you better. You should listen to him.” Fern felt extremely irritated but she had to maintain a polite demeanor in front of Sydney. Right then, a sales assistant handed a suit to Eugene. “President Eugene, this is the matching suit for the bridal gown that Miss Sydney chose. Do you want to put it on?” the design director asked. Sydney looked at him in anticipation. She cautiously tugged on his sleeve and spoke in a coquettish tone, “Put it on. Don’t we still have to shoot our wedding photographs?” Eugene glanced at Fern before nodding. “Alright.” The sales assistant guided him to the fitting room at once. Fern found it way too boring to stay here, so she did not go o
