Chapter 421 Bored

He spoke with such rationality and cruelty, leaving her momentarily at a loss for words."So, does it not bother you?" Paige asked.Chris chuckled. "What's there to be bothered about? Grandpa may prefer Niel more, but he also likes me and treats me well.""In that case, what would be considered crossing the line?" Paige inquired.Chris paused before saying, "Maybe… when Niel jeopardizes the interests of the Jewell Group. That's when Grandpa might truly be disappointed in him."Paige asked, "Would Niel really do something that foolish?"Chris laughed. "Who knows?"Paige looked at Chris in astonishment, wondering if he was implying that Niel might do it.There was no way Niel could be that foolish, right? It seemed impossible.Even she, who was not the brightest girl, would not do anything to harm Jewell Group's interests if she were in Niel's position. After all, Jewell Group's future success would mean dividends for Niel, which was money. Harming Jewell Group's interests w

Chapter 423 Sierra Gets Angry

Paige could not care less about her mom. Thanks to the messy divorce, her dad and mom had become bitter enemies, so there was no chance she would lend a hand to their mom. In that case, her mom would have no choice but to rely on herself.However, if her mom squandered the money or got swindled, she would have to spend Sierra’s money.Sierra pondered over it and decided to have a chat with Wendy about where the money went after her stint in jail.… Sierra arranged to meet Wendy at a coffee shop. When Wendy arrived, Sierra noticed she had aged in the short span they had not seen each other. Once a well-groomed lady, even with age, Wendy managed to retain her elegance. Yet now, Wendy’s wrinkles had become apparent, fatigue had taken a toll on her, and her eyes were clouded.It looked like her mother was afraid of going to jail. It must have been a tough time for Wendy, and perhaps she had been struggling to eat or sleep."Mom," Sierra called out to Wendy.Wendy nodded fain

Chapter 424 Finishing The Stew

Caught off guard, Wendy stared at Sierra. She had not expected Sierra to think that far ahead."I wanted to manage your assets because I trust I wouldn't take a penny from you, but I don't trust anyone else. However, it seems you prefer to trust those so-called intermediaries and financial advisors over your daughter." Sierra expressed her frustration and sadness.Wendy hurriedly explained, "No, Sierra, it's not that. I just…”Sierra looked at Wendy and asked, "Just what?"Wendy opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but found herself at a loss for words. In reality, she feared Sierra might have an eye on her wealth because she knew Sierra was not happy with the dowry she provided, finding it inadequate.Sierra had not explicitly mentioned it, but being Sierra's mother, Wendy understood her daughter's thoughts and actions perfectly. To Wendy, it was not about Sierra coveting her wealth; it was because that was all she had left. Having divorced Bob, relying on her family

Chapter 425 I, Chris, Will Not Lose To Anybody

Chris glanced at Paige's round belly."You like the beef stew?" Chris asked.Paige hesitated and then admitted, "Well… I’m not a big fan of it."Chris eyed Paige's round belly again, wondering how she could say that when her belly clearly suggested otherwise.Paige confessed, "I just couldn’t stand Niel and Tina flaunting their love, so I purposely finished their stew to ruin their moment."She wanted to see how they could flaunt their love then.Chris raised an eyebrow, teasing, "Jealous much?"Paige pouted. "What do I have to be jealous of? I just think they're fake. We all know what their private relationship is like, yet they insist on putting on a show in public. It's just so nauseating."Chris teased again, "Are you really not jealous?"Paige insisted, "Nope."“Okay."Paige looked at Chris, sensing that he might not believe her entirely.It disappointed her that he thought she would envy such forced and cringe displays of affection."Do you think Tina forgave Niel?"

Chapter 426 Money is the Only Thing On Paige’s Mind

That incomprehensible sense of comparison left Paige at a loss for words."Well, you see…” Chris stared at Paige, saying, "The reason you had all that stew last night was a hint, wasn't it? A hint about Niel's caring attentiveness to Tina, suggesting Tina has stew to savor while you didn’t."Paige fell into a brief silence.She observed Chris, wondering if he was overanalyzing the situation."I have some type of stew every day," Paige explained.Due to her pregnancy and Tina's recent miscarriage, both needed to have nourishing food to fortify their health. Consequently, there would be some type of stew at dinner almost daily."That's not the same," Chris insisted. "Niel had specially instructed the kitchen to make Tina's beef stew. Since Tina has a husband who personally directs the kitchen to make her food, you must have your husband personally instructing the kitchen to make you something too."Paige genuinely did not know how to respond.It was just stew. Whether personally

Chapter 427 I’ll Do My Best

If he did not want money, it meant he was asking for something else.Paige's eyes flickered nervously, a shade of red coloring her face.Chris, observing Paige's shy and uneasy expression, could tell she understood his intentions. He chuckled at the girl having a knack for understanding things.Blushing, Paige asked in a hushed tone, "So… what do you want?"Chris grinned and asked, "Don't you already know what I want?"Paige hesitated, nervously fidgeting with her hands.Not pressing Paige further, Chris continued to smile and stare at her silently. After a while, Paige nodded with a red face.Chris teased, "Alright. I won't go out this afternoon. Let's show off our love and drive Nina crazy."Blushing, Paige nodded again. "Yes."Chris assured her, "I'll perform."Paige knew he would perform. There was no need to emphasize it repeatedly as it would only make things more awkward."So… you'll have to reward me nicely tonight," Chris commented.Paige could not take it an

Chapter 428 Grapes

Paige pouted and said, "Why is he worried about me? I'm a good girl, you know."Sierra could not help but laugh at Paige's adorable expression. Paige must be leading a happy life to look so cute, even more so than when she was with the Quirks.What was Paige like with the Quirks?She was silent and reserved, sometimes not uttering a word for the whole day. Her presence was so quiet and unassuming that Sierra forgot she existed at home many times.Sierra sighed, never expecting that her mistakes would lead Paige to such happiness. She did regret it, but what good was regret? No one could turn back time, and she could not have a second chance like the female protagonists in novels.Hence, no matter how much she regretted it, it was useless. Now, she could only hold onto the present.Paige looked at Sierra, thinking the latter did not believe her, and asked Chris, "Do you think I'm a good girl?"Chris cast Paige a glance before nodding at Sierra. "Yep, she's a good girl."Pa

Chapter 429 Having a Girl

Paige glanced at Nina, who seemed like she was hinting at Chris, “Am I clean or what?”It made Paige wonder if Nina only liked Chris and no one else."No way!" Paige looked at Nina in astonishment. "You're so beautiful, and in all these years, no one has pursued you?"Nina smiled and replied, "People have pursued me, but… I just didn't like them.""Oh," Paige said, understanding what Nina meant. "Your standards must be really high."Nina smiled and said, "In matters of the heart, it's not about standards but feelings."Paige nodded.Nina then added, "I take marriage very seriously. I will only marry someone I like."After saying that, she looked meaningfully at Chris and continued, “As for Chris, I thought he would marry Shelly back then."Paige asked, "Why?""Because they were a perfect match. At that time, whether it was their peers or the elders, everyone thought highly of Chris and Shelly. They were seen as a match made in heaven."Paige looked at Nina and asked with a s

Chapter 430 Stay for Dinner

Chris looked at her. "What's up? Are you doubting my skills?"Paige hesitated.Chris gazed at Paige and said, "Be it the capability to conceive or raise the children, I've got them all."Paige remained silent as she pondered what he meant. After all, only she could conceive and be pregnant… When Paige realized what he meant, she blushed and glared at Chris with a mix of embarrassment and annoyance.Why did he have to be so straightforward, especially when Sierra and Nina were around? What would they think?In reality, Sierra and Nina did not think much of it. They were just envious of Chris and Paige's relationship and their "skills" to have ten kids!They were drooling with envy!"Get lost," Paige said shyly."Sure, I'm out," Chris said good-naturedly with a smile and went upstairs with his computer.Sierra and Nina just watched as Chris left, shocked that Chris did as Paige said.Nina felt conflicted. On one hand, she hoped Chris would leave so that she would not have t
