Zoey left the Maddox family and went straight to Galaxy Studio. Knowing that she wouldn't be able to see Russell if she returned to Serene Manor, she decided to stay in the design room and work on her sketches.Leanna knew that she came to work overtime and was extremely touched. She said that she valued friendship more than romance and immediately decided to treat everyone to a lavish lunch and dinner.Zoey felt guilty. She was not someone who prioritized friendship over romance; she clearly wanted to prioritize romance over friendship. However, her husband did not give her the opportunity.Dragging her tired body back to Serene Manor, when Emilee saw her and quickly asked if she wanted to have a late-night snack.Zoey looked at her round belly and waved her hand."Did Russell come back?"Emilee nodded, "Mr. Russell came back in the afternoon and has been at home. The second young lady from the family was brought back here."Zoey: "..."The Braylen couple were vsmart on the arrangem
Russell looked at the girl's fair and smooth little face, his gaze gentle. "What good habits?"Zoey pressed her lips against the man's thin lips and whispered, "Goodnight kiss."Russell felt like he was being tortured to death by Zoey, he could touch her but couldn't have her.After tossing and turning for a while, the girl beside him finally fell asleep contentedly.Russell raised his hand and covered his eyes, the muscles in his arm flowing smoothly. He thought Zoey was deliberately tormenting him.After a while, he turned to look at the sleeping girl.Long eyelashes fell lightly on the porcelain smooth face, pure and beautiful.Zoey's sleeping posture was a bit hard to describe.At that moment, she was lying on the bed, and her nightgown had already ridden up to her waist.The long and slender legs and the full and perky buttocks were clearly visible.Russell's Adam's apple rolled, his heart had been stirred up, unable to calm down at all.He covered Zoey with a blanket, turned aro
In the spacious dining room.Joanna kowtowed heavily and said, "Mr. Russell, please spare my life, considering that I've been working here for so long. I had no choice, my son was still in their hands!"His voice was indifferent, "If you make a mistake, you have to accept punishment, right? Brent."Brent walked in and said, "Yes, Mr. Russell.""Take her to the secret room and handle her according to the family rules."Joanna suddenly looked up and said, "Mr. Russell, I beg you, spare me!"Russell's thin lips curled up, "It seems like you finally remembered what kind of person I am."Knowing roughly what mistakes Joanna had made, Brent had already arranged two bodyguards to stand at the door.As long as Russell gave the order, the bodyguards would take the person away.When Joanna was dragged out of the dining room, she was still begging for mercy incessantly."Mr. Russell, I didn't want to go to Snake Forest..."Emilee came in and quickly tidied up the mess on the floor, and poured ou
He bent down to kiss the corner of her lips when, at that moment, the office door was pushed open."Mr. Russell..." Troy walked in and witnessed this scene.The man gazed affectionately at the girl on the sofa, slowly approaching, wanting to give her a kiss.The usually abstinent Russell surprisingly stole a kiss from the girl while she was asleep.Russell glanced coldly at Troy, who performed an instant disappearing act.He turned back and looked at Zoey's sleeping face again. The girl had fair and tender skin, with slightly parted lips that revealed her pink little tongue. The sweet scent of cake mixed with her natural fragrance, and without any defense, it entered the man's nostrils.Russell couldn't help but approach again. Suddenly, he stopped and glanced at the door, afraid that someone would come in and ruin everything.When he made sure that no one else would come in, he turned his head and leaned closer.The next second, the two of them locked eyes.Russell didn't expect Zoey
In the spacious restaurant, Abigail's voice of astonishment could be heard.Many people's eyes fell on her. After all, she was a public figure, so she quickly covered her face.Russell gave her a meaningful look and said, "Why are you so nervous?"Abigail collected her thoughts and said, "I'm just curious, how did Carolyn end up staying at your place?"Russell said, "Braylen's house was being monitored, and he suspected it was done by a rival company. Because he was worried about Carolyn's safety, he sent her to Serene Manor."Zoey looked at the man, and he kept Carolyn being drugged a secret.Abigail seemed to breathe a sigh of relief as she smiled and said, "So Carolyn has moved into Serene Manor, Russell. Can I go too?"Russell lifted his gaze and said, "No, it is not allowed."He refused thoroughly, which made Abigail awkwardly tug at the corners of her mouth and say, "Why can't I?""Because Carolyn couldn't move, it didn't affect my and Zoey's normal life. Your behavior, on the o
Facing various doubts, Ariana still maintained a smile on her face.She looked at Nelson affectionately and said, "Regarding the matter of photos and videos, we have already clarified that they are all false. As for the truth of the matter, I cannot say much here because there are people I want to protect, and Nelson also has people he wants to protect."Ariana's words left a lot of room for imagination.At this moment, a male voice sounded."Is it all made up? I can't believe you can say such things. After verification, the photos and videos are indeed real! You stole someone else's fiancé and shamelessly implied that the person you claimed to protect turned their back on him! You want to act promiscuously while still wanting to maintain a virtuous image."Roland wore sunglasses, his silver hair flowing freely, and he spoke without mercy, successfully causing Ariana's face to darken.The journalists and media started asking questions about this matter again.Nelson quickly intervened
Everyone held their breath, afraid that they might miss any crucial evidence.Their phones and cameras were all aimed at the computer screen.The perspective in the screen was recorded by the computer camera.Zoey was playing the guitar and singing this song, and she also recorded a segment.At that moment, Ariana walked in and said, "Zoey, you sang that song so beautifully, what's it called?"Zoey said, "Break up."Ariana sat next to her and said, "How do you sing, Zoey? Can you teach me?"Zoey smiled and said, "Okay!"She sang a line, and Ariana followed with another line.Although Ariana was not off-key, her voice lacked any distinctive features, and at this level, it was simply impossible for entertainment companies to take notice of her.The video ends, Zoey looks at Ariana and says, "So, Born Beauty was attracted to you in the video? Honestly, do I need to poison you for having such a voice?"Ariana's face turned pale, and she trembled with her eyelashes. "You just wanted to lif
The banquet hall was magnificent, with golden decorations and a crystal chandelier emitting dazzling light.Melodious music played, accompanied by the laughter and clinking of glasses from men and women.Today, those who came were all influential figures in Lochcliff.Attending the birthday banquet was secondary; the main purpose was to network.They all particularly wanted to get close to Russell, the person in power of the Maddox Group, after all, this big shot is usually too low-key, and it is not easy to meet him in person.At that moment, Marlene was sitting in the main seat, with Livia and Aubrie standing beside her.They were responsible for receiving the gifts sent by the crowd.Alonso, who was standing by, said, "If you're tired, go rest in the upstairs guest room."Marlene waved her hand and said, "I was in a particularly good mental state now, thanks to the divine doctor. His medical skills were truly remarkable. In the past, I often felt chest tightness and shortness of br
The Jenkins family invited the big shots from the upper class circle to their full moon banquet, and most of them came to the party with the intention of just watching the excitement.After all, who doesn't love to eat the melon of a wealthy family?The Blevins family, who were once expelled from overseas by Dalton, have also become honored guests and have risen in status, all because the wife who couldn't conceive was abandoned and the mistress, with the birth of a child, managed to turn her life around.People who used to sneer at them in the past, now when they see them, they can't help but nod and flatter them.The banquet hall was lavishly decorated, with photos and videos of the little baby playing on the LED big screen. Dalton was greeting the guests with Amiya, going around.Everyone treated her politely and called her Mrs. Jenkins.Only the Jenkins family and the Blevins family knew that Dalton and Nancy had not yet obtained a divorce certificate.Dalton's excuse was that Nan
Nancy held Nacy in her arms, watching all of this coldly. Chelsea, who had once treated her like a daughter, became hysterical in that moment.The people around kept pointing and whispering."This woman actually targeted a pregnant woman. She is truly wicked!"Anyway, the child was innocent!"You saw how she hurt the pregnant woman, and she didn't feel any guilt at all. This kind of person should be cyberbullied!""That's right! Send photos, send videos to her and upload them online!"***Nacy tightly held onto Nancy's neck, fear evident in her eyes. "Mom, I'm scared.""Don't be afraid, I would protect you."Chelsea looked as Amiya's skirt became stained with blood, and she felt a sense of unease. She directed her anger towards Nancy and said, "Nancy, you wanted to exterminate the Jenkins family, didn't you? You and this bastard have truly destroyed the Jenkins family!"Bastard?As soon as this word came out, the onlookers all imagined a grand drama of a wealthy family."Could it be t
Nancy looked at Dalton and asked, "Did your mother have any thoughts of divorcing me now?"Dalton didn't want any rift between the two of them, so he spoke honestly, "There's something, I guess Amiya did some brainwashing on her. But it doesn't matter what anyone thinks, because no one can influence me. The reason why my parents are acting this way is also because Amiya is really good at manipulating people. Nancy, you are in my eyes and in my heart."Nancy sighed lightly, "I know, I won't run away or be cowardly like before. I loved you, and I fought for us, unless one day you didn't want me anymore."Dalton's thin lips curved up, "I was really afraid that you would bring up the child and say that you wanted to leave me, and all that. We don't want to reach that point, you know?"Nancy nodded, "We could give it a try first, and if it doesn't work, we can go for in vitro fertilization."Dalton was glad that she was able to open up, and he embraced her in his arms. "Good. It's coming s
Carolyn, sitting in a wheelchair, twitched at the corner of her mouth, "Can that be done?"Carsen chuckled, "Of course not, I was just kidding with you."Carolyn pouted, "At a time like this, you still feel like joking?"Carsen raised her hand and rubbed her head, "My darling is going to be a mother, just kidding with you."Carolyn looked up and smiled, but in the next second, a wave of pain hit her, and Carolyn's face suddenly changed."Ouch, ouch, ouch! It seems like I was about to give birth!"Carsen hurriedly pushed Carolyn towards the elevator.Russell and Zoey followed behind, but their pace was slightly slower. By the time they arrived, Carsen and Carolyn had already gone up in the elevator.Russell took a deep breath, and Zoey looked at him with amusement. "Are you nervous?""Indeed, a little bit, I can't imagine what it would be like when you gave birth."Zoey held his hand and said, "Don't worry, nothing would happen."After a day of turmoil, Carolyn and Carsen's daughter wa
Eugene glared at Dalton and said, "You idiot! How could you say such a thing?"Dalton sneered, "Isn't this what you were doing? Treading carefully, ultimately pushing me into a corner and forcing me to surrender!"Eugene gritted his teeth and almost spat out the words from between his teeth, "Your attitude towards me is absolutely outrageous!""Sorry!" Dalton stood up, adjusting his cufflinks. "I couldn't do any of the things you mentioned. You can have Amiya live wherever you want, even if it means she moves into the Jenkins's manor, I won't object. With or without her, with or without me!"After saying that, Dalton directly pulled the door and left.Eugene looked at the closed door and lit a cigarette.He believed that everything he was doing now was for the good of Dalton. Being unfilial has no future, so are all the industries of the Jenkins family going to be donated in the future? Of course, there must be his own flesh and blood to inherit them!He felt that Dalton would start w
Nancy and Dalton returned to the room, and Dalton, worried that she was angry, immediately approached and embraced her."Nancy, I beg you, please don't leave me.""That night, I really had no recollection. I had already taken precautions, worrying that something might happen, but unexpectedly, it still did.""I knew that no woman could accept the fact that her husband had an illegitimate child. I had already told my parents that I would give up the Jenkins family's wealth. They can give it to whoever they want, because I will never acknowledge this child.""Nancy, I couldn't be without you. Don't think about giving up on our relationship just because you're having difficulty getting pregnant. My child can only be born from you, I won't acknowledge Amiya's child!""Nancy..."Dalton blurted out all his inner thoughts, how could Nancy possibly remain indifferent.She gently patted the man's back, "Dalton, I didn't say I want to leave you
Nancy noticed the panic in Dalton's eyes, and then her gaze fell on Amiya's small belly."Dalton, she was pregnant with your child, right?"Dalton furrowed his brow as he tried to grasp her hand, but Nancy evaded him."Dalton, was that the time she got pregnant? You didn't do anything about it, did you?""No, Nancy, I handled it. I didn't expect her to get pregnant either," Dalton quickly explained. "Nancy, we are doing a paternity test, and the results will be out soon."Nancy closed her eyes and said, "Dalton, let me have some peace and quiet."At that moment, Amiya walked over, her hand resting on her abdomen.Amiya's pregnancy was already showing after five months, especially when she wore a fitted beige long dress, making her protruding belly even more noticeable.Nancy felt a slight stinging sensation in her eyes, but she couldn't show it in front of Amiya.She asked, "When did the result come out?"Dalton g
After leaving the Jenkins's manor, Dalton did not go home but went to a bar.He drank one cup after another, using alcohol to drown his sorrows.When Russell and Toby arrived, he was leaning against the back of the sofa, looking utterly despondent.They were all dressed in casual clothes, clearly indicating that they had rushed over from home.Russell asked, "What happened? Did Craig come back to life and Nancy doesn't want you anymore?"Toby chuckled, "Your mouth was going to kill me!"Russell clicked his tongue and said, "So, what could possibly have happened to him?"Toby raised an eyebrow, "Well, there was no other possibility."Dalton raised his hand and covered his eyes, "Amiya has returned."Russell squinted his eyes and said, "Could it be that you brought the ball back, which is why you are so down?"Dalton lowered his arm and looked at the two of them. "She was five months pregnant, it should have been th
Amiya knelt and looked up at Dalton, shaking her head, her face covered in tear stains, "No! Dalton, this was your child!"Dalton coldly stated, "This is not my child! My child can only be born by Nancy!"Amiya pleaded with Chelsea, "Chelsea, I heard that Nancy couldn't conceive anymore, can you bear to see the Jenkins family become extinct?"Chelsea furrowed her brows and clenched her fists.Amiya continued, "I was the only bloodline of Dalton. I heard that Dalton adopted the child of his rival, and if this child grows up and learns about their origins, about the death of their parents and their connection to Nancy and Dalton, will she truly treat every member of the Jenkins family with sincerity?"Dalton grabbed her throat and said, "Shut up!"Eugene stepped forward and grabbed his wrist, "Dalton, let go! I didn't want the Jenkins family to end up in a tragedy!"Dalton's hand exerted force, and Eugene's hand also exerted force.
