Upon hearing this, Frank didn't even raise an eyebrow, as if it was entirely expected. He merely nodded slightly to indicate he understood and continued walking toward the roadside.Alan quickly followed, methodically planning the next steps. “Should I have them follow him?”“No need.”“No need?”Alan usually kept up with Frank’s pace, but this time he felt a bit out of his depth. “Frank, he must be going to meet the person behind the scenes, right? Shouldn’t we use this opportunity to follow him?”As he spoke, he ran to the front of the car, opened the rear door, then walked around the front and got into the driver’s seat. After starting the car, he finally heard Frank’s calm voice: “Kevin might fall into the same trap twice out of panic, but the person behind him isn’t so foolish. They might be even more cunning than he realizes.”Alan turned on the turn signal and merged into traffic while contemplating, “So you’re saying that following him would only bring us harm with no ben

“I had Kevin, also known as K, try to find a way to get the antidote.”I was surprised. “He agreed?”“Hmm, but the chances are slim. We need to make additional preparations.”Frank raised his hand, gently smoothing the frown on my forehead with his thumb. “Besides that, Uncle has already asked Dr. Travis to think of ways to delay the onset of the poison. Additionally, your mother and I have arranged for Grandma's blood to be sent to top research institutes abroad. As long as there is enough time, they should be able to develop an antidote.”“Charlotte, trust me, Grandma will be fine.”I looked into his brown eyes, feeling a sense of calmness wash over me. Like when I was a child, I reached out and ruffled his hair. “Frank, thank you.”The next day, I had finished washing up before the doctor came for the rounds.Yesterday, I urged Frank to go home and get a good night's sleep, but he refused and insisted on staying with me on the sofa for the night.After the doctor finished ch

“Stop being so bitter. According to my friends in the circle, this time several forces have joined together to pressure the platform and reduce the hype. I heard even her ex-husband got involved. Maybe her own family background isn’t simple; at the very least, she’s a well-bred young lady.”“Stop talking. Even being related to Frank is already quite lucky. How impressive could her ex-husband and family background be?”“If her family or ex-husband were impressive, I’d eat shit whilst being upside down.”I glanced at the online gossip but felt almost no emotional impact. Since my experience with public opinion involving Jessica, I’ve stopped taking such matters seriously.Jane noticed I wasn’t upset and felt relieved. “I wasn’t sure whether I should tell you, but seeing you not take it seriously makes me feel better.”“Don’t worry.” I smiled a little. “My mindset is strong right now.”Rumors and gossip were beyond my control, and getting angry about them was unnecessary.Just as I

I immediately realized something. “By the way, how is your wound healing? I’ve been staying with Grandma these past few days and haven’t had a chance to visit you.”Feeling a bit embarrassed, I noted that he had been injured for my sake, and yet I hadn’t even visited him.“It’s just a minor injury, nothing serious.”Jack seemed to sense that I might feel guilty and downplayed it. “It should be mostly healed in a while. Grandma’s condition is the real issue. By the way, how is she?”My expression grew slightly somber. “We’ve managed to delay the onset of the poison for now, but I don’t know if we can wait for the antidote to be developed.”“Developing an antidote?” Jack looked surprised. “Wasn’t the antidote with that K last time? With Frank’s methods, he should be able to deal with him.”“Jack, are you here at the hospital to change the dressing, or are you here specifically to check on Charlotte?” Jane changed the subject with a smile and teased, “Speaking of which, Charlotte is

It was unlikely for me to get pregnant after only one time.By the time I arrived at the company and finished the meeting, it was almost evening. I had come with Jane’s ride. I was getting ready to take a cab back to the hospital.Jane offered to give me a ride, and I gave her a sidelong glance, teasing, “I saw you messaging Zachary during the meeting. It’s better not to let me delay your… progress.”Jane smiled brightly. “Oh, have you learned to spy on screens now?”“Just a coincidence, just a coincidence.” I gave a shy smile.She had been sitting at my lower left during the meeting, leaning sideways against the table to reply to messages, so it was impossible not to see.As I was speaking, my phone rang—it was Frank.“Finished with the meeting?”His lazy and casual voice came from the other end of the phone, and I couldn’t help but smile, “Yes, just finished. I’m planning to go back to the hospital to see Grandma, then head home.”After several rounds of acupuncture from Dr.

His clear voice carried an unusual seriousness. When I met his dark brown eyes, filled with almost drowning affection, I even forgot to breathe.My heartbeat missed a beat. I really wanted to nod and agree, unable to bring myself to say anything to reject him. But I wasn’t in my early twenties anymore. After a few moments of breathing, reason eventually prevailed.I gently pursed my lip. “I want to wait… until the current matters are settled.”Seeing the disappointment flicker in his eyes, I was afraid he might misunderstand, so I couldn’t help but explain, “These issues are like ticking time bombs. Whether it’s Lucas, Bethany, Simone, or K and the person behind him, if we have a child now, our concerns and their opportunities will just increase. Frank, I also hope we can have a child soon. I believe we will work hard to be great parents.”“But not right now.”“Charlotte.” Frank’s lips suddenly curved into a smile. “Do you feel like your words make you sound like a terrible pers

When we got home, Julie had just prepared a delicious and aromatic dinner. Knowing that Grandma was coming back with us, Julie had even made a medicinal meal to help with Grandma's recovery.The meal was extremely pleasant.However, I couldn’t shake the feeling that Grandma seemed a bit troubled. She kept serving me food, as if she wanted to show her care for me with all her strength.Later on, Grandma urged Frank to take a shower. Frank noticed that Grandma wanted to speak with me privately and cooperated willingly.“Charlotte, come in with Grandma.”While Julie was still tidying up the dining area, Grandma called me into her room.I suspected that she had something important to discuss with me and felt very uneasy. “Grandma, you…”“Take this and keep it safe.”Before I could finish, Grandma took out a brown paper bag from her purse and handed it to me.I panicked. “Grandma, I can’t accept this!”Grandma smiled in relief. “Do you know what it is?”“Well…” I pursed my lips.

Before I could finish speaking, Grandma continued, “My little Lily has grown up and wants to support Grandma, right?”I pursed my lips. “But I still haven’t been able to do anything for you. Even the antidote, we don’t know when it will be available.”“What’s there to be afraid of?”Grandma was much more open-minded than I was and sighed, “I’ve been thinking about your grandfather for a long time. If it weren’t for the Shaw family, I would have gone to join him long ago.”“It’s just that you have to work hard to hold up this mess of the Shaw family. Grandma doesn’t want you involved, but there’s no other way.”“I know, I know…”Hearing Grandma’s tone as if she was arranging her final affairs, tears streamed down my face. I clung to her, crying and choking up, “When I was little, I envied other kids who had grandparents. Now that I finally have you, I don’t want you to leave me. I don’t want to lose you.”At that moment, I understood the burden Frank carried on his shoulders.Th

“You’ve already showered…”I heard the hidden meaning in Frank's words and pretended to be oblivious to tease him, “Put me down.”“No.” Frank looked down. He had a mischievous grin on his lips as he kicked open the bathroom door. Hot water and kisses came down together, stealing my breath away. Later, he played around until I could barely stand. He simply supported me by my thighs and held me at his waist. I thought the bath would be like before, lasting until midnight, but instead, after just one round, I was wrapped in a towel and carried to bed.Feeling a bit embarrassed, I pulled the blanket over myself, leaving only my eyes visible as I looked at Frank.Frank met my gaze and chuckled. “You’d better not say those two words.”I huffed, “How do you know what I’m about to say?”“I know perfectly well.”Frank leaned closer, gently brushing his nose against mine, and drawled, “That’s because I’m your husband—”He dragged out the last word on purpose. My face heated up wi

I turned around and leaned into his arms, nodding slightly. I looked up at him and muttered, “You’ll get what you want soon enough.”He cocked his brows playfully. “If we can’t get what we want, we’ll do everything to make it happen.”“Pervert.” I laughed. He dropped his casual demeanor, gently patting my back with a comforting tone. “I’ll go with you for the check-up tomorrow.”“I was planning to buy a pregnancy test kit in a few days…”He whispered, “But I can’t wait.”I could sense Frank’s eagerness for this child, and I was excited too. Having a child connected by blood with someone I love. If it weren’t for all the troubles at hand…But since the heavens had given us a gift, I would choose to accept it.“Okay.”The next morning, the first thing I did after getting up and washing was to go see Grandma. I didn’t expect that Frank had already come back from walking with her. “Up so early?”I couldn’t tell if he was praising me or subtly implying I could sleep more. I s
