When Natalie walked into the store with Yvonne, Celine was paying for her flowers at the cashier.The moment she saw Natalie, she was so nervous that she almost left without her flowers."Ma'am, don't forget your flowers!" The florist stopped Celine.Celine turned around and picked up her flowers. Then, she left without greeting Natalie.Natalie wondered why she always acted so strangely whenever she saw her. She hadn't offended her in any way, had she?"Do you know her, Natalie?" Even Yvonne could tell that Celine's reaction was a bit off."We've met a few times, but we barely know each other," Natalie answered honestly. But ultimately, she wasn't too concerned about Celine. So, she changed the subject and said, "Oh, the daisies are over there, Mom."Yvonne nodded and went over to pick a daisy bouquet.After buying the flowers, they left the florist.Natalie had sent her chauffeur off a while ago so she could spend some quality time with her mother. Hence, they had to take a

Celine then realized how much of a male chauvinist Shane was after she started seeing him."If you give birth to a son for me, I'll marry you right away." Shane had even joked with her once about this.Honestly, any woman would find this demand rather offensive and disrespectful. But Celine didn't want to miss her chance of entering high society, so she accepted his term.Later on, she got pregnant with his child. And despite Shane's persuasion to get an ultrasound to find out the baby's sex, Celine refused."We'll find out when the baby's born. Don't worry, I remember our deal. We'll get married only if it's a boy. If it's a girl, I won't bother you anymore," she'd said with a smile.Shane then took her word and stopped asking about the baby's sex.However, Celine later got an ultrasound with her own money and confirmed the baby's sex behind his back.Much to her shock, the baby was a girl, and not the son that Shane had been dreaming of!Celine was disappointed for a while af

Henry didn't have the faintest clue as to what he should do when a baby cries!All he knew was that Natalie was too weak to get down from the bed to hold Mercy herself. She had to stay in bed now.But still, Natalie tried to get down from bed. "It's alright, Henry. I'll get her…" "No, I'll get her," Henry confidently said as he pushed Natalie back to bed.Then, he cluelessly approached the cradle.Mercy was crying so hard that her cheeks had turned red. Yet, Henry didn't even know how to pick her up. He had never seen such a small baby before, let alone hold one."It's okay. I've got this," Natalie said gently, not wanting to discourage Henry."No, I've got this!" Henry insisted. Then, he stiffly picked Mercy up, as if he were holding a plate of food.Natalie was dumbfounded. She had never thought of holding a child like that.Meanwhile, Mercy expressed her disapproval with an earth-shattering cry.Natalie could tell how desperate and helpless Henry was when he saw Mercy

However, Garrett remained unapologetic in the face of Leonard's interrogation. In fact, he still maintained his assertive demeanor."Is a woman like her worth fighting with me over? I simply offered her a favor and ensured her mother would receive better treatment abroad. "She willingly accepted the deal I proposed," he said.Garrett smirked as he continued coldly, "To put it bluntly, while you were dreaming of growing old with her, she just… turned around and sold you out. In her eyes, a little favor was enough for her to end her relationship with you."Garrett's words struck down heavily on Leonard, and this was the first time he truly realized that love could be so painful."Shut up!" Leonard snapped, unwilling to hear anything more from Garrett. Then, he pressed on and asked, "What country's doctor did you arrange for her mother?" Although Leonard knew the flight that Rachel was on, the destination was just a layover, and he was still uncertain of her next move.Garrett mo

Leslie turned to meet Ivan's gaze and recognized the implicit threat in his eyes.Though he didn't voice it outright, the message was clear—any action on her part that could embarrass Ivan in front of Hugh would have consequences.Leslie was aware of the compromising photos Ivan held over Hugh, so she reluctantly refocused her attention on the steak before her.Hugh felt a sinking feeling in his gut as he observed Leslie's compliance.Her surrender worried him.Instinctively, Hugh seized Leslie's wrist as she was reaching for the fork and knife.He said, "What are you doing? Have you forgotten that you're allergic to steak? Or have you forgotten how your allergy almost killed you last time?"Ivan's gaze sharpened as he directed a menacing look toward Hugh. "Mr. Gordon, is it appropriate to treat someone else's wife in such a manner, especially in her husband's presence?"Hugh retorted furiously, "Ivan Zachman, can you stop this madness? This is no joke! Leslie will have an alle
