James comforted her, saying, "I'll help you to find a solution.""Help me find a solution? What kind of useless solution can you think of?" Summer retorted."I'll talk to my mom," James offered."No!" Summer exclaimed vehemently. "It's better if you don't talk to her. I'm afraid that if you do, your mom will turn against me even more. I don't know what she might do to me then."Caroline was a devil with a devil fork and horns on her head. With the sharp fangs in her mouth, it was as if she could bite off Summer's neck. Summer had to act carefully against her devil mother-in-law. If she let James simply help her, she was worried that it would make Caroline even more furious.James also felt helpless. He wanted to help Summer, but problems between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were too complicated. It seemed that even the outstanding president of Quigley Group didn't know how to resolve this problem.Summer noticed the concerned expression on James' face and felt somewhat

"Mmmm, it smells and looks good!" Summer exclaimed.Without waiting for James to bring the plate over, Summer went ahead and grabbed it from him. However, because the plate was hot, she almost accidentally dropped it. Luckily, James was there to catch it halfway."Careful. It's hot," James reminded her gently as he placed the plate on the table.Summer sat up straight, smiling all over the place.She had just wanted to fill her stomach and hadn't expected James to prepare anything special. She was surprised that he had made something delicious. So, she couldn't help asking, "Did you really make this?""Yes, I made it," James confirmed."Alright, I'll believe you," Summer said, knowing that James never liked to lie. If he said he made it, then she would believe it. She just couldn't believe that a wealthy man like him knew how to cook. He really didn't look like he could cook. Busy people like James usually didn't even have time to eat, let alone cook.While eating, Summer

James couldn't help shaking his head. He remained silent. Perhaps, in his opinion, this was one of Summer's cute traits.The next day was yet another difficult day. By the time Summer woke up, James had already left early. He'd worked until 3:00 am or 4:00 am and left for work again at 7:00 am. Summer truly admired him. Why did it seem like he had boundless energy? She couldn't help but wonder if he was unconcerned about the toll it might take on his health.It wasn't that Summer was particularly concerned about James. It was just that he was her husband. As his wife, Summer felt that she wouldn't feel at ease if anything happened to him.So, she came out of the room, signaled to Lexi, and mentioned a few things."Lexi, can you help me to send something later?""Mrs. Quigley, what do you want to send?" Lexi asked confusedly. Even though she was Summer's bodyguard, Summer hadn't requested anything from her so far.Summer only had a simple request. She wanted to send a bowl of

"He doesn't drink soup? You're not lying to me, right?" Summer had lived for more than 20 years, and she had never encountered someone who didn't drink soup. Her mind raced, and she suspected that Susanne might be lying to her.Susanne shrugged, looking indifferent. She said, "If you don't believe me, you can see it for yourself later. I have something to attend to and cannot accompany you."As Susanne walked out of the kitchen, she suddenly stopped before the threshold. She looked back with a smile on her face and said cryptically, "Summer, we'll meet again later. We'll talk then."Meet again? Why were they suddenly meeting again? For a moment, Summer didn't understand what Susanne meant, but she was no longer in a good mood after their conversation. Besides, she felt a sense of unease creep into her mind; it was like something bad was about to happen.She left the kitchen and went to her room. Halfway there, she met Luca. She inquired, "Luca, I have something to ask you. Do

James' gentle voice came through the phone. "Summie?""James, did you drink the soup?" Summer asked."Yeah, I did," James responded."Why did you drink it? I thought you didn't like soup?" Summer voiced her confusion. Based on her assumptions, there was no need for Susanne and Luca to lie to her. This meant that James shouldn't like soup. Yet his response was different from what they said. Therefore, Summer could only think of one explanation—James was lying and claiming to like the soup when he didn't.James remained calm and emotionless. At the moment Summer asked, he replied, "I don't hate soup."But Summer couldn't accept such an ambiguous answer. What did he mean he didn't hate soup? There should only be one definite answer. Either he liked it or not.Summer persisted. "James, if you don't like it, you don't have to force yourself to drink it. The others told me that you've never liked drinking soup since you were young, right?""Yes," James replied."Then, why did you

Snapping back to reality, Summer quickly explained, "What? How am I happy? Don't talk nonsense.""I'm not talking nonsense. Mrs. Quigley, you look very happy, like you're in love!" Lexi replied.In love? Summer was stunned. She shook her head continuously. She had fallen in love before, so she knew what falling in love felt like. The feelings she had for James were definitely not love. Their marriage wasn't based on emotions; it was just a transaction.Summer let out a deep breath and retorted coldly, "Well, you're mistaken. Lexi, I won't fall in love with James.""Mrs. Quigley, are you still not going to admit it? As an observer, I can see the situation better than you. "Although you seemed like you didn't have feelings for Mr. Quigley at the start, I've noticed that your marriage is gradually becoming fulfilling now," Lexi replied."Stop this nonsense!" Summer said, seemingly angry. Her face was flushed red. Why was she so worked up? She was anxiously denying it because

The bouquet was very beautiful. It appeared extraordinary from afar, but it revealed even more wonders up close.Summer felt regretful. How come all these individuals from prestigious families seemed capable of everything? Susanne, in front of her, was a prime example. It seemed that the news she had seen before had all been fake.The news always depicted the young generations from wealthy families as arrogant, incompetent, and lazy, and they often used their parents' wealth to cause trouble. However, after joining the Quigley family, Summer found that reality wasn't quite the case. For example, although James was a typical rich man's son, he not only worked diligently but also possessed remarkable abilities and intelligence.Even Susanne was the same. She was skilled in yoga, flower arrangement, dance, and more. These skills were likely just the tip of the iceberg. Who knew what other skills Susanne possessed?Seeing how outstanding these people were, Summer felt a bit pressur

Summer didn't think that she needed to improve. She just wanted to live a simple life in the Quigley residence. As long as she endured for another half a month, she would move out of there with James. Then, she would have the freedom to do as she pleased. Therefore, it didn't matter if she knew how to do flower arrangements well or not."Susanne, let's not trouble Mom. We can handle this ourselves." Summer chuckled as she negotiated. She was determined not to let Caroline see how today's flower arrangement class went. She wanted to avoid giving Caroline an excuse to scold her.However, Susanne had different intentions. She didn't comment on Summer's work for a long time because she wanted to show it to Caroline. Now, seeing how Summer was unwilling to submit her work, Susanne had no choice but to present it herself.She picked up Summer's vase and left without even looking back.Upon seeing that, Summer was taken aback. She asked, "What's wrong? Where are you going, Susanne

However, Summer didn't argue. After suffering from Caroline's punishment last time, she was afraid. She respected Caroline much more now and dared not to act recklessly again. Summer thought that it was best to just endure it since she was going to bid farewell to this devil mom soon.Caroline didn't know what Summer was thinking. She glanced at her and said, "Forget it. I have no expectations of you. Just help this family by bearing a child. I will take you to the hospital in a few days to see if you're pregnant."The primary reason Caroline allowed Summer to marry James was because she hoped Summer could bear a child for the Quigleys. Therefore, it didn't matter if Summer couldn't match up with James' looks and wealth. The most important thing was that she had to be able to bear children.Upon hearing Caroline mention pregnancy, both Susanne and Summer were shocked and exclaimed in unison, "Pregnant?"The news was a bit devastating for both women. Susanne's goal was to brea

Susanne asked, "If you don't work with me, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle Aunt Caroline's scrutiny.""I'm afraid that if I work with you, I'll die faster." Summer revealed her true feelings. She had never trusted Susanne. Even during the flower arrangement class earlier, Susanne had revealed her true motive when she deliberately tried to humiliate Summer.How could Summer trust Susanne if they were to work together?Susanne also knew that it wouldn't be easy to gain Summer's trust. So, she proposed another idea. "Summer, I can tell you a secret. I'll exchange this secret for your trust.""Secret? What secret?" Summer was suddenly curious."It's about me and Howe," Susanne replied."About Howe?" Now, Summer was genuinely interested. She had long felt that the relationship between Howe and Susanne wasn't simple. During their last breakfast together, he had looked at Susanne with a fearful expression, like a rat seeing a cat.So, there was something behind it. Summer sa
