Eugene swept his cold gaze across everyone present at the funeral and said, “This is my last time saying this. I don’t want to hear anyone bad-mouthing my wife anymore. Otherwise, don’t blame me for falling out with you. If anyone wishes to leave the Newton household, I’d gladly honor your wish.” All the family members of the Newton household took a sharp breath after hearing what he said. They all exchanged looks with each other. They did not dare to say anything although they were still unwilling to accept his words. After Eugene finished speaking, he ignored the expressions on their faces and left the cemetery with his wife and daughter. They then got in the car and left. Fern looked at Eugene, who still had an unpleasant expression on his face. She could not help but ask, “Weren’t your words too harsh?” “What words?” Eugene turned around to look at her. He then raised his brow and asked, “Do you mean when I asked them to leave the household?” He did not think so. “Sinc
“Huh? Really?” Both of them stared at the protruding part of her stomach and started investigating it. When Tia heard that Dayton wanted to bring Quincy over for a vacation, she stubbornly insisted on following them. She ran to the seaside and saw both of them sitting on a bench under the tree while acting all lovey-dovey. A sense of suffocation instantly overcame her. She clenched her hands into fists and ran over at once. “Dayton, I heard that we can go fishing in the ocean. Can you bring me along?” She walked over and grabbed Dayton’s arm. She then shook it in a coquettish manner. Dayton frowned and removed her hand. “If you want to go fishing, you can ask the manager here to bring you. He should know more about it than me.” “But… I want you to come with me.” Tia pouted and cast a pleading gaze at him. “I’m not free.” Dayton ignored her.“You seem pretty free now.” Tia was slightly angered. She glared at Quincy, who was seated beside him. Quincy glanced at T
Dayton pondered upon it for a while. He had never shelled a prawn for Tia before. Perhaps she had remembered wrongly. She might be lying on purpose as well. He spoke to her with a cold expression on his face, “No such thing has ever happened.” Tia immediately said loudly, “Of course, it has. How could you have forgotten it?” She placed the prawn in front of him and asked, “Help me shell it, okay?” The tone of her voice was extremely coquettish. Dayton remained impassive. He pushed the prawn back to her and said, “Do it yourself if you want to eat it.” “You…” Tia pouted. She was extremely angered. Quincy watched the interactions between both of them. Tia was being too unreasonable. However, she started craving the garlic prawn after having a whiff of the aroma just now. She turned around to look at the man beside her. She blinked her eyes and said, “I feel like eating it.” Dayton had yet to process her request. “Huh? Which dish do you want?” As soon as he finishe
...Quincy felt slightly tired at night. She prepared to return to her room to rest. The sky was dark outside. Gray clouds loomed across the sky whereas strong gusts of ocean breeze raged outside. It seemed that it was about to rain heavily. The manager of the island, Mr. Cabot, walked into the room in a hurry and told Dayton, “Young Master Night, the young woman who came with you took a cruise out. She hasn’t come back yet. Given the current weather conditions, there’s going to be a storm soon. You should contact her at once and ask her to come back.” Dayton did not expect Tia to take a cruise out into the ocean alone after their argument. He looked at the raging ocean breeze outside. He knew that it was easy for a boat to get overturned during such weather conditions. Anyone who fell into the ocean would lose their life. Although Tia had said something she was not supposed to, she was still his aunt’s family member. He could not let anything happen to her here. He p
Quincy looked at the raging storm outside. The waves were repeatedly crashing against the shore a distance away, but Dayton’s cruise had yet to return. How could she hold herself back from wanting to go out?However, Dayton’s men had received orders from him. They could not let her step out regardless of what happened. A loud crash rang out. A tree not far away from the door had snapped in half due to the impact of the wind! The loud crash made Quincy’s heart lurch. She was filled with a sense of panic and anxiety. “Move away! I want to go look for him!” she shouted coldly. Four men got onto their knees in front of her as they pleaded, “Young Madam, the young master ordered us to look after you. If anything happens to you, our lives will be over. If you wish to go out, please kill us first.” After all, their deaths would already be determined if she took a step out. “You… Are you guys trying to anger me to death?” Quincy panted. Perhaps she was overly worried and anxiou
“Doctor, please treat his injury as soon as possible.” Quincy moved away to let the doctor come over. She then looked at Dayton with a worried gaze and asked, “Do you have any other injuries? Tell the doctor everything.” Dayton smiled when he saw her being so worried about him. He raised his hand to pinch her cheek as he said, “That’s all. Why are you so worried? It’s just a small injury. Your man won’t die.” To him, this injury was really nothing much. His most serious injury was the one she had inflicted upon him. She had stabbed his chest with a knife, which almost took his life. Quincy had enough of him. She flung his hand off irritatedly and said, “I’m not in the mood to joke with you.” The doctor inspected his injury and said, “It seems like your injury was caused by a scratch against the ocean reefs.” Dayton nodded honestly and said, “Yes.” Quincy was shocked once again. “Ocean reefs? Did you go into the ocean? Or…” She looked at Tia, who was beside them. Did h
Tia thought that she was important to him since he had jumped into the ocean to rescue her. However, he was now telling her that he would send her back to the mainland as soon as possible. He also thought that she was a nuisance! Of course, she was unwilling to listen to his orders. She ran over to him and held him back. “I don’t want to return to the mainland. I want to have a vacation here!” Dayton was extremely impatient now. “I brought Quincy here to relax. If you want to have fun on an island, I can send you somewhere else.”“I don’t want to go somewhere else. I want to stay here!” Tia was not willing to do as he said. Without him by her side, everything would be meaningless for her no matter where she went for vacation. Dayton remained impassive. “You can either return to the mainland or go to another island. You can’t stay here.” As soon as he finished speaking, he flung her hand off and wrapped his arm around Quincy. They then left. “Dayton…” Tia wanted to ch
“Darling, are you done admiring my body?” Dayton’s low chuckle rang out from above her head. Quincy winced awkwardly. “Go into the bathtub and lie down.” “But you haven’t finished taking off my pants.” “Haven’t I already removed your pants?” She looked at him. He was still wearing his… boxers. “Take it off on your own.” He grabbed her hand and stopped her from leaving. “You can’t only do things halfway. Besides, I’m injured now. It’s hard for me to undress on my own.” Quincy glanced at his injured hand and huffed. “Why did you jump into the ocean, then?” He could have asked his men to jump into the ocean to rescue Tia. Dayton glanced at her evaluatively and frowned. “Why do I feel like you’re being jealous right now?” She met his gaze and said everything honestly, “Yes, I’m jealous. You’re my man and my husband, but you got injured while rescuing another woman. How can I feel at ease about that?” After a brief pause, she asked, “Would you be happy if I got in
