If Eugene Newton was her biological brother, that meant that Jim Newton was her brother as well. An odd expression flashed across Riley's face after Jim Newton walked into the shop. She had started acting abnormally. “Why are you here?” Riley asked. Her crazy playfulness from just now was long gone. She sounded rather nervous instead. “Godmother, who’s this fancily dressed man?” Sebastian asked curiously. “He is…” “Is this your illegitimate son, woman?” Jim asked her suspiciously, interjecting her words. “He is my son,” Sharon said. She walked over and faced Jim directly. Jim seemed to have just discovered the presence of her and Simon, who was standing beside her. “Oh, it’s you. I guess you know your own place after all since you realized that it’s useless to pester my brother. Are you pestering another man now?” Jim asked with a playful smirk on his lips. His gaze moved back and forth between Simon and her. “Pay more attention to your words!” Riley shouted out
Jim pulled Riley toward the side of his car. He had opened the car door and was about to push her onto the car when she flung off his hand.“What the heck are you doing right now? I don’t owe you anything anymore, right?” Riley asked angrily. She rubbed her wrist, which hurt due to his tight grip. Jim cast a sideways glance at her. “It’s not up to you to decide whether you owe me anything or not. If you didn’t damage my shirt, I wouldn’t have embarrassed myself in front of my goddess. You’re the reason why my proposal was a failure. How dare you push the blame onto me?” He asked. Riley gave him a quick once-over after registering what he said. She tried to suppress her laughter. “Tsk tsk, didn’t you say that those women were pestering you? Since you’re so charming, how could your proposal possibly fail? It seems that not all women are blind,” she smirked. She was extremely curious about this goddess that he had mentioned. If she ever had the chance to meet her, she would show
“Cough. New sweetheart? I'm his girlfriend, can’t you tell?” Riley said, hooking her arm around Jim's arm while resting her head on him.Lola was not angry at this. Instead, she smiled disdainfully. “What girlfriend? I've been with him for so long and I never heard that he has a girlfriend.”“Yeah, he found one after I came into the picture. I should inform you now not to come pester him anymore in the future. If not, I won’t be so nice to you.”Lola's face changed when she heard this, but she still did not believe Riley's words.She looked directly at Jim while feeling aggrieved and angry. “Jim, what's the matter with her?”Jim coughed softly. “It’s just as she said.” He crossed his long legs as he watched this drama unfold as if it was none of his concern. Since he had already handed the matter over to Riley, he would not bother about it anymore.“H-How can you do this?” Lola’s eyes went red immediately. It was as if she was about to start crying at any moment.“Then what abou
Sharon and Simon's wedding was approaching, so Sharon felt unavoidably nervous.She kept feeling anxious especially after experiencing the trauma of her failed wedding with Howard.Despite this, Simon told her to wait obediently and be a beautiful bride while he arranged everything at the wedding.After deciding that they would go back to stay in the Zachary household after being wed, Simon deliberately decorated the bedroom and added some new furniture.Today, the new furniture would be delivered to the house, so Simon asked her to go back home and plan out how she wanted to decorate the room.At that moment, the workers were busy moving the new furniture into the house in the front yard of the Zachary household.Sharon watched from the side while occasionally reminding them to be careful.She thought Simon had just planned some new pieces of furniture, but she did not expect that he almost replaced all of the previous ones.As she watched the workers move the new dressing tab
Sharon looked around, and sure enough, there was no desk for the little guy.Perhaps Simon only thought about what they needed in their marriage and did not consider the little guy.She patted her son's head. “Mommy will buy it for you. When I have time on weekends, I’ll take you to choose one.”“No, I want daddy to buy it!”“Okay, you can tell him when the time comes.”The little guy was happy now. Then, he asked, “Mommy, will you live here after you and daddy get married? You won't move out again and be apart from me, right?”Sebastian was afraid of the days when he was separated from his mom.“No, Mommy will live with you from now on.”Her son had been with her since he was born, so how could she be willing to be separated from him?The workers brought in all the new furniture and arranged them according to Sharon's instructions. The room had changed beyond recognition now.She looked a little lost, and at the same time a little excited. This would be her home from now on.
Sharon walked out after she put on her wedding dress. When Riley helped her to stand in front of the mirror, she was amazed.“I have a good eye, right? I told you this style of wedding dress is suitable for you. Look, how beautiful! You will be the most beautiful bride in the world on the day of your wedding!” Riley praised unashamedly.Sharon wanted to be humble, but when she looked at herself in the mirror, she almost cried out at her own beauty.The wedding dress draped over her body had a long train which was decorated with shining diamonds. Her veil was very long, and it reached all the way to the bottom of the dress.The most remarkable thing was that the back of the wedding dress had a heart shaped cutout. It was not only romantic, but also showed a bit of her individuality.“Mommy, are you a goddess who just descended from heaven?” Sebastian, who had already put on a small suit, ran over and could not help but marvel when he saw his stunning and ethereal mommy.Simon was
The photoshoot was eventually over. When she changed out of the wedding dress and back into the normal clothes she usually wore, she felt her entire body relax.Sharon collapsed straight onto the sofa in the lounge area.Simon sat down beside her and teased mercilessly. “Mrs. Zachary, your physique is too weak.” It seemed that he had to make her exercise more to strengthen herself.She was exhausted from this activity, and did not react even after Simon teased her. She just lay in place like a dead fish as she looked at the man from the corners of her eyes. He did not look tired at all. On the contrary, he looked rather energized.She could not help but feel puzzled. Thus, she patted the man's strong chest and asked, “Are you really that strong?”He was busy with his work from nine to five every day, and occasionally, he would work overtime or go out for social interactions. Yet, Sharon had never seen him looking tired before.When Sharon spotted his sudden evil expression, she c
After Eugene got out of the car, he looked at the entrance of the hotel. He heard Simon had promised Sharon a grand wedding and it seemed like Simon had done just that.The entrance of the hotel was decorated to look extremely gorgeous and romantic, especially the flower wall next to the entrance. The smell of flowers filled the area, and a gigantic photo of the newlyweds was hung on the flower wall. How extravagant!“Hello, please show me your invitation card.” The attendant at the door stopped Eugene.Eugene replied calmly, “I don’t have one.”“I’m sorry, you can’t go in if you don’t have one.”The guests behind him looked at him strangely. Where did he get the courage to come without an invitation?Although Eugene looked calm, he sighed in his heart helplessly.Sharon was so cruel. She said she would cut all ties with him, so she did not even invite him to her wedding. Did she really want to their relationship to end that badly?She broke his heart.“I am Eugene Newton. Go
