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
Quincy glanced at Dayton, who had a dark expression on his face. How had she never realized before that he feared taking medicine?“The doctor wouldn’t have prescribed any medicine to you if you didn’t need it. You’re injured and sick now. You must take your medicine,” she said gently as she coaxed him patiently. Dayton looked at the gentle woman before him. Although he did not want to take so many pills, her gentle demeanor convinced him to do so. “Will you feed me the pills every time?” He requested. Quincy smiled and said, “Sure, as long as you’re willing to take the pills.” She picked up the pills that the doctor had just prescribed him and said, “Come on and open your mouth. I’ll feed you.” Dayton really did as she said. She placed the pills in his mouth one by one and held the cup of water by his lips. “Drink some water.” He enjoyed the way she took care of him, but why did it feel like he was handicapped? Also, those pills tasted so bitter before he even sw
“Who are you? Why are you lurking around so late at night, scaring people?” Quincy patted her chest as she glared at the figure angrily. The lingering fear remained in her heart. She looked at the way he was dressed. Was he one of Dayton’s men? “Miss Quincy, don’t you know me?” the person asked in a low voice. He was afraid that someone else would discover him. From the tone of his voice, it sounded like both of them knew each other in the past. Quincy gave him a once-over and shook her head. “Who are you? Do we know each other?” “I’m Terry, your personal bodyguard. Do you really not remember me?” He looked at her bulging belly and laughed bitterly. “That’s right. If you remembered me, you wouldn’t become the wife of that bastard, Dayton Night, nor would you bear a child for him!” “Why are you scolding Dayton like that? Do you have a rivalry with him?” Quincy stared at him with suspicion. “I don’t hold a grudge against him. You’re the one who has a grudge against hi
Newton Corporation. Eugene fixed a cold gaze on Wyatt, who came in to give him a report. He said icily, “You mean that Asher Gibbs was the one who spread those rumors?” Wyatt nodded and said, “Yes, he bribed some people in the respective houses of all the elders of the Newton family and asked them to spread rumors that would damage the reputation of Madam. That’s why all the elders of the Newton household dislike her.” “How treacherous!” Eugene narrowed his gaze coldly. He did not expect a grown man like Asher to stoop so low. “President Eugene, shall I bring some men over to teach him a lesson and warn him to stay out of this?” Wyatt had enough of Asher a long time ago. How dare he try to snatch his boss’ woman?! “Do you think that you can get rid of someone like Asher through violence?” Eugene cast him a sideways glance. “This…” Wyatt thought about it intently. “If we aren’t going to resort to violence, are we going to have a logical debate with him instead?” If
Even after hearing what Eugene said, it seemed that Asher still did not intend to give up on Fern. He wanted to sabotage their marriage and was waiting for them to get a divorce.Eugene thought that Asher was just enraged because he did not manage to get together with Fern. He assumed that he was trying to vent the dissatisfaction within him by spreading rumors that would ruin Fern’s reputation. Now that they had met up, he realized that this was not the case. Asher was trying to do this just to snatch Fern back from him. He was still so insistent on getting together with her. It would be hard to make Asher give up on her. Eugene did not intend to say anything else. “If you’re planning to wait for us to get a divorce, you should continue doing so.” He then got up and looked down at Asher from above. “We’ll send out an invitation to you during each and every of our upcoming wedding anniversaries. However, you don’t need to attend the event.” He was trying to tell him that they
Fern did not understand why he was suddenly telling her something like that. She tilted her head to avoid his lips. She then looked straight at him and asked, “Why are you saying that?” Eugene’s gaze darkened as he lowered his voice. “Someone told me that you’d lose your freedom after marrying me.” She frowned before smiling again. “Who told you that?” “Take a guess.” He tried to keep up the suspense. She tried hard to think about it, but she could not figure it out. She then made a random guess. “Was it one of the elders of the Newton household?” He raised his brow and asked, “Would they care about your freedom?” Right, they only wanted her to leave Eugene since they believed that she was a bad omen. Suddenly, she thought of something. She asked hesitantly, “Was it Asher?” Eugene narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, “Asher? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll be jealous if you address him that way?” “I’ve always addressed him that way…” “From today onward, you are
The wall behind her was cold, but the body of the man in front of her was warm. She was stuck in between the wall and his body. It felt icy and fiery hot at the same time. “Mmm… Don’t...” She wanted to hold him back, but he had lost all control. He lifted her legs and placed them around his waist... …The next morning, Fern’s entire body was so sore that it felt like it was about to break apart. Her legs, especially, felt like jelly. Her face heated up when she recalled how crazed Eugene was last night. “Are you awake?” Eugene’s strong arm wrapped around her waist from behind. He then pulled her into an embrace. She leaned her back against his sturdy chest. Lust lingered in the air surrounding them. “Why aren’t you getting up? You’ll be late for work.” She glanced at the clock on the bedside table. “I’ll just be late, then.” Anyways, nobody would dare tell him off for being late. “You can be late, but I can’t.” She then pushed his arm away from her and tried to ge
