She turned around to look at him. When she met his deep and sharp gaze, she felt like she had become his prey. Asher laughed mockingly and said, “President Eugene, you’d better stop having one-sided feelings for her. Fernie has said that her feelings for you are all in the past, so she won’t get back together with you. You shouldn’t get a divorce as well.” Eugene glanced at him coldly and said in a lukewarm tone, “This is between me and her. Since when did an outsider like you have the right to interfere in our matters?” Asher was disgruntled by his rebuttal. He really felt like punching Eugene! Fern looked at the two arrogant men. She wanted to kick both of them out!…Sydney thought that Eugene brought up the topic of divorce with her because of a moment of rage. She did not expect him to be serious about it. Eugene got Wyatt to prepare a divorce agreement. He had not gone home in many days, but he returned home today just so that he could ask her to sign the agreemen
Rue’s emotions had calmed down a lot. Fern could resume working in the office. After sending Rue to school, she prepared to head to the office. However, two bodyguards clad in black stopped her after she turned around. “Miss Thompson, Old Master Newton would like to see you,” one of them told her. Fern was stunned. The old master had finally come to look for her. She wanted to see him as well. She wanted to ask him what his intentions were. Why was he holding a grudge against her? She did not reject their offer. She got into their car and followed them to the Newton household. The old master was seated on a chair in the garden of the Newton household. There was a pot of freshly-brewed tea on the marble table beside him. When the bodyguards brought Fern in, the old master was sipping on his cup of tea. “Old Master, Miss Thompson is here,” Fiona told him. Quinn did not turn around to look at Fern. He simply replied, “Alright.” Fiona understood his intentions.
She suddenly burst out into laughter. “Why are you laughing?” The old master stared at her coldly. She shook her head and said, “You’re already at such an elderly age. Why can't you do some good deeds for yourself? Are you going to kill me just like that?” “It seems that you don’t believe me.” The old master narrowed his eyes as a dangerous glint flashed across his gaze. “I can make you disappear right now.” His low voice sounded ghostly and terrifying.Fern’s heart lurched. She was about to say something when a man’s voice rang out. “I’m here. I won’t let her disappear.” She turned around and caught sight of Eugene, who was walking toward them in large strides. How did he know that she had been brought here? The old master’s expression turned icier after seeing him. Eugene walked over and pulled Fern over. He hid her behind him in a protective stance. He looked at the old man with a frigid expression on his face. “Grandfather, aren’t you crossing the line here
Fern felt her hand becoming warm as he continued holding it. She remembered that he had yet to divorce Sydney, so it was inappropriate for him to be doing this to her.She forcefully withdrew her hand. Lowering her eyes, she refused to look at him. “Are you really going to get a divorce?” she asked softly. He had mentioned that he would be getting a divorce in front of the old master just now. She still could not understand why he wanted to get a divorce. Eugene fixed his dark and heated gaze on her as he nodded. “Yes, I don’t want to miss out on you once again.” She stopped breathing and turned around to stare at him. Her heart sped up uncontrollably once more. “W-Why?” Why her?He met her gaze. His eyes were focused on her and full of love. “That’s because a part of me can’t forget about you,” he said as he pointed to his own heart. She looked at where he was pointing at and kept quiet. She did not know how she was feeling right now. “Does that mean that you still
It was all because of Fern Thompson… After she returned, she took away everything that rightfully belonged to her. She snatched her husband away and took away the happiness in her life! ‘Fern Thompson, you really deserve to die!’ Sydney crumpled the summon in her fist tightly. Her gaze was filled with deep hatred. ...Eugene got off work on time these two days. He would immediately head to Fern’s house with the excuse that he wanted to accompany his daughter for dinner. Fern had no reason to ask him to leave.Asher got off work on time today as well and headed to Fern’s house. He did not come empty-handed. He had bought some groceries and wanted to go over to prepare dinner for Fern and Rue. “Excuse me, but I’ve already brought some groceries over. Rue wants to have braised fish, and I want to have braised eggplants. Fernie is preparing the dishes now,” Eugene told Asher after glancing at him. Asher did not know that Fern knew how to cook and her cooking skills wer
Fern came out after preparing the dishes. She caught sight of Eugene and Asher sitting on the sofa. They were watching TV with Rue. “Rue, I’ll bring you to the theme park to play next weekend. How does that sound?” Eugene asked. “I’ve already gone to the theme park with Mommy previously. Daddy, bring me to the museum instead,” Rue said. Eugene was just about to say something when Asher interrupted, saying, “Do you want to go to the museum? I have a friend who’s working at the museum. I’ll bring you there tomorrow and ask him to be our guide.” “Really? Does your friend really work at the museum?” Rue looked at Asher. “Of course, it’s true. I’ll contact him tonight to make an appointment for tomorrow.” Asher was extremely proactive. Eugene eyed Asher coldly. He felt like beating up this annoying man! “Daddy, can Uncle Asher bring us to the museum tomorrow?” Rue turned around and asked him. Eugene smiled at Rue and said, “Sure, he can be our guide.” Rue was his daught
Both of them were too annoying!“Mommy, you’d better have some of the braised fish.” Rue took a piece of braised fish and placed it in her bowl. “Alright, I’ll have this braised fish.” Fern did not want to look at Eugene or Asher. Both of them quietly ate the food that they meant to give her. Fern felt slightly exhausted. It seemed that both of them wanted to fight at the dining table. After dinner, both of them refused to leave. “You guys can go back now,” Fern had no choice but to ask them to leave in exasperation. “I want to keep Rue company for a little longer.” Eugene looked at Rue. He hoped that Rue would ask him to stay. Rue was a smart girl. She immediately said, “Mommy, I want Daddy to stay back and keep me company tonight. He’s going to bring me to the museum tomorrow.” Asher was hurt by her words. He immediately emphasized, “Rue, I’m the one bringing you there.’ “Oh, Uncle Asher is the one bringing us there,” Rue corrected her words. However, her fathe
Sydney went to the prison to visit her mother today. She saw her mother through the metal bars. She had gotten a lot thinner, and her heart hurt for her. “Mom, you…” She wanted to ask if her mother was doing alright, but she did not know if she should ask her after seeing her like this. Mrs. Neal had been anticipating her daughter convincing Eugene to let her out of prison early. She was being bullied by the other female inmates in prison. She could not stand it anymore. “Syd, has Eugene agreed to let me go?” She knew that as long as Eugene said something about it, she would not have to stay in prison anymore. Sydney’s gaze darkened as a hint of hatred flashed across her eyes. She shook her head and said, “No…” Eugene only had his mind set on divorcing her and getting back together with Fern right now. He would not care about whether her mother lived or died. Mrs. Neal was stunned. She then started getting emotional. She glared at her daughter angrily and questioned
