Toph paused, then he smiled, ruffling Renee's hair affectionately."I really want to marry you soon, too," he said gently. "But... Aunt Kaitlyn just passed, so it might not be appropriate for us to have the wedding now.""Toph, do you also believe in these things?""I'm not superstitious," Toph explained seriously. "It's just human nature. To hold a wedding immediately after a funeral, the outsiders might think—""Do you care a lot about what others think?"Toph furrowed his brow, at a loss for words. He felt that Renee was somewhat different.No, it was not just today. Since Kaitlyn's death, it was as if all of Renee's happiness had been taken away along with her mother. She became sensitive and suspicious and rarely smiled or spoke. Her once introverted personality had become even more gloomy and melancholic.Toph tried his best to make her happy. But he knew it wouldn't be easy for her to feel better quickly. Losing her mother had been hard, especially because she was there w

"What were you swearing about?" Cordelia asked while glancing subconsciously at Renee. The latter stood by, clutching her clothes and appearing quite nervous.Cordelia was not sure if what she was doing was right or if she had frightened Renee.Perhaps that was just the display of affection from young lovers. After all, she had been young once, and Zephyr had also made all sorts of promises when they were deeply in love.It was just that... swearing and making promises was something done willingly, not something forced upon someone.Cordelia furrowed her brow. Maybe she was overthinking this, but she did not want to give anyone a chance to harm her son!"Toph, an oath is a sacred thing. If you make reckless oaths, God will hear you. Don't think He won't punish you!""Mom!" Toph laughed heartily. "Who said I was making reckless oaths? When I swear, it's with a sincere and solemn attitude!""You..." Cordelia glared at him.Why was her second son so unruly? If it were Zuko, she wo

Cordelia nodded and smiled tenderly, leaning against him. After spending most of their lives together, he was still her haven and her superhero.-It had been over a month since Lena joined the Thompson Group. Her first paycheck was not substantial, but the amount left her content compared to before.The only regret was that it was just the base salary, whereas her colleagues were all rejoicing, clearly receiving significant performance bonuses. Some of them could even afford to buy a small sports car with their bonuses.Lena bit her lip. Honestly, she did not envy their ability to earn a lot of money. Money had long become something external to her. What she regretted was not selling a single property in this past month, not achieving any results, and disgracing Lina.While sitting at her desk, someone unexpectedly patted her shoulder. She turned around, surprised to see Jade standing there with a gentle smile."Feeling good about receiving your first month's salary?"Lena hurr

Moreover, Jade had appointed an experienced senior salesperson to guide Lena, emphasizing her need to deliver results within the second month.During the meeting, Jacquelin's thoughts were elsewhere. She felt fear due to Jade and was also crafting a revenge plan against Lena.Yet, lacking a strong strategy, she chose the simplest approach—creating a disturbance in Jade's office after the meeting."Ms. Neale!" Jacquelin complained, "What did you mean by that? Weren't you just humiliating me in front of everyone?""Oh?" Jade did not even lift her head. "How did I humiliate you?""You said I hadn't achieved anything in half a year!"Jade took a deep breath and looked up at her. "Did I say anything wrong?""Well...""It was you who first complained that Lena had no sales this month." Jade smirked coldly. "Jacquelin, we're in sales. It's common not to achieve much in a month or two, especially for a newcomer like her."You don't have to be so sarcastic, do you? Lena is part of our

"You..." Jacquelin was rendered speechless and panting. She glared at Lena before turning around abruptly, only to stumble due to her high heels and twist her foot."Ah!" Jacquelin screamed as she stumbled forward, crashing into the wall.The colleagues passing by stifled their laughter and quickly moved away.Lena watched silently, shaking her head and giving Jacquelin a contemptuous look."Lena!" After Jacquelin steadied herself, she shouted at Lena's retreating figure, "You just wait!"Lena waved without looking back and walked away with an air of indifference.In reality, she really wanted to mess with this woman. During her days struggling at the bottom of society, encountering revolting people was common, so flipping the bird and using foul language had become a necessary skill for survival.In theory, even a hundred Jacquelines wouldn't match up to her. Yet, she held back the urge to teach her a lesson at that moment. It wasn't due to anything else but her association wit

Chapter 1356

What Chris saw on the screen was that the eldest Hamerton heir was currently wearing an apron and creating chaos in the kitchen. Just from the chopping sounds on the cutting board, Chris could imagine the disaster in the kitchen."Zuko, I think I should call Pammy first.""Hmm?""I need to warn her in advance." Chris chuckled. "No matter what your husband gives you, don't eat it. Watch out for food poisoning.""Get lost!""Hahaha!" Chris could not hold back anymore. "I mean, what kind of biochemical experiment are you conducting? Spare your kitchen! What do you want to do? Can't I help you?""It won't do." Zuko looked smug. "This is a special soup a husband has to prepare to ensure his wife will get pregnant. I can't let outsiders interfere.""Pregnancy soup?""Yes," Zuko said earnestly. "There used to be an old servant in our family. She's passed away, but the soup recipe she left behind has been benefiting future generations. I followed her recipe and doubled the ingredients.

Lena stood still in her place. Chris was equally stunned.The young woman felt someone looking at her and widened her eyes upon turning and seeing Chris."What are you doing here?"Lena's expression changed subtly. She felt like an unnecessary person caught in the middle."Hey, Chris!" The young woman patted him on the arm. "What are you doing here? You don't recognize me anymore? Hey, why are you shrinking away?"Chris was evasive and kept looking at Lena."What's the matter with you?" The young woman was exasperated. "I'm Arya Bayer. Pretending you don't know me?""I do recognize you!" Chris felt like he was about to die. How could he run into her here?"Is this beautiful young lady with you? Aren't you going to introduce us?"Lena paused and looked at her.Arya didn't fit the mold of a typical beauty. She lacked delicate features and had a pleasantly plump appearance. Her complexion was fair, and she sported bushy eyebrows along with large eyes. Her smile revealed two char

"Lena..." Chris confessed to her, "I-I do indeed know Arya. She's the youngest daughter of the Bayers. Her father is Josiah Bayer, and her mother is Kelly Tanner. The Bayers and the Hamertons have a long-standing friendship, so... Zuko, Toph, and I used to play with Arya when we were kids...""Oh…" Lena responded indifferently.He had not gotten to the point yet!"There's more!" Chris unraveled the story. "Once... I mean, it's in the past!! The Hamertons indeed wanted to ally with the Bayers, and the intended match was between Arya and me... But listen to me! But that was just the adults' idea, and it had nothing to do with me!""Mm."Although Lena had not looked up, a faint smile began to spread in the depths of her eyes."Lena, I didn't mention her before, not because I didn't want to, but because I..." Chris scratched his head, unsure how to proceed.Should he say it was to prevent her from misunderstanding? That did not seem appropriate. Then she would know he had been plott

Lina's heart thumped inexplicably as if she had done something wrong.She forced a chuckle. "Renee, why are you rummaging through my things?""Is this intended for Lena?" Renee emphasized.Lina paused, seeming unhappy. She gazed at Renee and nodded slightly. "It's meant for her. Lenny is working, and coworkers judge by looks. If she doesn't carry something good, they might think less—"Before she could finish, Renee spoke coldly. "Why didn't you think to get me something valuable to carry when I was working at the Thompson Group?""Renee!" Lina widened her eyes. "What are you talking about?""She caused my mother's death!" Renee snapped the box closed and tossed it onto the sofa, where it immediately rebounded. "Why is it that each and every one of you treats her like a savior and treats her so well?!""Renee?" Lina looked at her in disbelief.Was the gentle and kind girl she knew in the past gone with Kaitlyn's suicide?The present Renee was full of resentment, treating Lena

The corner of Lena's lips was slightly swollen, and there were clear fingerprints on her face. Lina's heart tightened. She hadn't anticipated Renee, who appeared delicate, acting so aggressively and quickly. Surprisingly, Lina didn't dodge at all, suggesting this wasn't an isolated incident.Lina brought ice and helped Lena apply it to her face. Lena looked at her and finally showed a faint smile."Does it still hurt?"Lena shook her head.Lina angrily exclaimed, "Does Renee usually treat you like this at home?""Nothing like that." Lena seemed indifferent. "She's actually quite nice to me. Besides, I might have spoken too harshly just now. It's my fault.""Lenny...""It's okay. Go check on her." Lena smiled sincerely. "I have thick skin and can take a hit. But she's the one who's wounded inside. She's the one who needs comfort the most."Lina could barely manage to say, "Lenny, you're always thinking about others...""It's not for her sake." Lena sighed lightly and said, "I
