An intense pain shot up Josephine's body. She struggled to balance herself, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.Lewis said, "Why do you keep popping up everywhere?"Josephine was stunned. She might have been upset hearing this last time. But now, she felt like she could see through the man's
The old lady looked up and stared blankly at Josephine.After a brief silence, she raised her hand to grab Jewel's hand. "Jewel, don't be angry. I'll clean up right away."Calming down after the outburst, Jewel stared straight at her.She bent down to help her mother up and spoke in a softer tone, "
After a while, Seth finally answered the call. He said teasingly, "Ms. Vance, the woman who traveled a thousand miles for her husband. So, have you found your husband yet?"Josephine ignored his sarcastic tone. "What are you doing now?""Of course, working overtime. You left the company hanging when
The two were surprised to come face to face with each other.The man was in his 40s. Dressed in a suit, he came out holding a medical kit.He seemed taken aback when he saw Josephine. After all, it was his first time seeing a woman in this villa. Not to mention, she was carrying a kid.After a brief
The staff recommended other baby products to Lewis after changing Goober's diaper. Lewis looked at the things in the staff's hand. He paused briefly before asking her to bag everything for him. He then paid and drove Goober home.He parked outside but froze after realizing the iron gate and front d
Devin stepped forward to smack Spencer's arm, hinting the latter not to speak so loudly. "Are you insane? Why would you barge in here at midnight to tell me these things?"Spencer replied, "I'm willing to bet he's recovered his memories. He's fooling us into believing he hasn't!""So what if he has?
Lewis stared at the bed for ages. He planned to bathe Goober after the latter finished the baby formula.Alas, he had been too optimistic. Goober barely drank any of the formula. Instead, he played with the rest and poured it all over the bed when nobody stopped him. After getting bored of playing
Little did he know he was wrong.Goober behaved whenever Josephine was around. He would only cause trouble a handful of times, but for the most part, he was obedient.That said, Goober behaved this devilishly to everyone other than Josephine.…Josephine didn't trust Lewis to look after Goober well.
"Daddy …" Serena murmured the two syllables. Then, she beamed brilliantly and repeated the word with more conviction. "Daddy!""Dada!" Elliot called out, too.Lewis smiled and reached out to pet Serena's head. "That's my little girl. Are you upset that I haven't come home all this time?"Serena shoo
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lewis asked.Josephine snapped out of her daze and shook her head. "I didn't think—""Didn't think what? Your parents are my parents. It's only fair that I give a proper gesture to my parents. What's so shocking about that?"Josephine had never heard him say su
"Well, we should visit your parents first—show them their grandkids. Plus, I don't think we need to return to Elysium anymore. We'll bring Serena over once we settle down. Let's stay here for a while," Lewis answered.Josephine nodded. She agreed that it was unnecessary to go back there since the co
Seth shot the former the side eye like he was looking at an idiot.Daxtor felt offended at once. His face darkened to his usual sternness. "Why? Are you unwilling to accept your actual identity?"Seth replied, "I hear the Leigh family is in trouble. I don't want to join a sinking ship.""About that.
Daxtor stopped reminiscing and cut to the chase. "Your mother was my first love. I'm probably hers, too."The two had dated when they were in school. They had deep feelings for each other, but their social statuses were too different. Daxtor had tried retaliating against his family and convincing h
Seth came in secret. Some things were easier to do here than in their home country. Still, doing so came with some risks. He said, "You two can forget about having a peaceful life if I hadn't come here. How do you plan to repay me, Lewis?"Lewis responded, "You can go home. We don't need you here."
Lewis fell silent. "Not so soon."Josephine didn't understand. "Do you have any matters left to resolve? Or ..."Or did he want to stay here? It seemed like they didn't have a place to return to.They didn't have a house in Hardington. Apart from the villa in Styx Mansion, nothing else belonged to t
The sudden blast created a disturbance, making the image tremble as static sounds disrupted the audio.The next moment, the signal was interrupted, and the TV screen went black.Although the screen had turned dark, Josephine had keenly noticed that something had exploded in the court.Blood scattere
Josephine didn't have much to do these days. Lewis was rarely home. Alone, she felt bored. Avery didn't want to visit her either.Avery wasn't on good terms with Lewis. So she tried to avoid running into him.Josephine didn't know what Lewis was up to. Avery seemed to have no acquaintances here but
