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
However, this had nothing to do with her. She would not have anything to do with Sydney in the future. They were waiting for their taxi when a car stopped in front of them. Upon catching sight of the car, Fern recognized that the car belonged to Jeremy. As expected, the door of the driver’s seat opened to reveal Jeremy, who stepped out of the car.He walked in front of them. “Are you guys waiting for a taxi? What a coincidence. Hop in,” he told them with a smile on his face. “Why are you here?” Fern looked at him in confusion. “I called Lena and she told me that you were signing a contract here. I was worried, so I came over to help you look at it,” Jeremy told her honestly. Fern glanced at Lena. When did she call Jeremy? Lena seemed to notice her confusion. “While you were in the fitting room putting on the bridal gown, I had a call with Jeremy,” she said. Fern looked at Jeremy and said, “I’ve already signed the contract. I’ll be modeling for this bridal gown sh
Jeremy was driving whereas Fern sat beside him in the passenger seat. “You mentioned that you signed up for classes? Are you going to get an accounting certificate?” Jeremy looked at her in surprise. Fern nodded and said, “Yes, I’m intending to do so.”Jeremy looked confused. “Why? Although it’s a good thing that you’re thinking of pursuing a different pathway, it isn’t a must for you to get an accounting certificate, right?” Before she could reply to him, he added, “Besides, your acting skills are excellent. It’d be a pity if you gave up on acting just like that.” “I’m not giving up on acting. However, you know the situation that I’m in right now. If I don’t pursue a different pathway, I won’t be able to raise my daughter.” She had not filmed anything in a long time. Besides, after going through the money laundering incident, nobody would want her to star in their films. Everyone in the entertainment industry knew that once they started losing opportunities to star
