Suddenly being asked a question, Carolyn was startled and then lowered her gaze."It's nothing!"Carsen chuckled lightly, "It feels like you have something to say to me.""That," Carolyn timidly looked at the man's perfect profile, "are you really going on a blind date?""I rarely interact with women in my daily life, mostly students, so blind dates are more suitable for me. It is based on the premise of approval from the elders and involves getting to know the other person. As long as the two individuals have compatible personalities, they can be together."Carolyn asked, "Is it enough to just have compatible personalities to be together? Isn't mutual liking important?"Carsen smiled faintly and said, "Maybe I would start liking it after spending a long time together."Carolyn felt a pang of bitterness in her heart whenever she thought about Carsen falling in love with someone else and getting married.She stopped talking and just quietly looked at the night outside the window.Befor
The next day, Russell and Zoey took Layne to Woodmerrow Kindergarten and completed the enrollment procedures for him.Afterwards, the family of three started their shopping spree.Layne walked in the middle, holding the hands of the two people, with a smile on his face.Many people, seeing this scene, couldn't help but take out their phones and snap photos.Zoey also didn't mind Layne showing up, after all, Layne had already been exposed at the press conference.After shopping, Russell and Zoey took Layne to the cinema to watch the newly released animated film.The little one was enjoying it, but Zoey and Russell still noticed that Layne's body was somewhat stiff in the dark environment.During lunch, Layne was still immersed in the world of movies, talking non-stop with her little mouth.It is good for children to be lively, but it becomes problematic when they appear to be excessively lively after experiencing some trauma.After dinner, the three of them went to the mental health cl
The Maddox Group.After Russell recovered, Braylen returned all his duties and responsibilities to him.Braylen felt a huge sense of relief, and he said to Russell with great emphasis, "I have been eagerly anticipating this moment for a long time. I am truly grateful to Zoey, there is no one who wants her to come back more than me."Russell actually didn't want to take over, because he wanted to travel the world with Zoey and Layne, after all, they had missed out on four whole years, and he wanted to make up for the lost time.He wanted to refuse, but Braylen was about to cry, "Russell, just pity your Brodie, I am old, it's time for me to enjoy a peaceful life."He also took off his wig and said, "Look at Brodie, he has been tortured into a Mediterranean look. Show some kindness."Russell looked at him and indeed, he was bald. He stifled a laugh and said, "Brodie, if I had taken two more years to recover, you would probably have lost all your hair."Braylen. “..."The moment Russell a
In the past, Zoey saw that Danna had a gentle and serene appearance, with a cascade of black long curly hair that was very soft.She turned back and took a sip from her coffee cup, "I have to say, I also like this type, they look like good wives and mothers. The elders all like this kind of person. Both my grandparents and my parents should approve."Carolyn looked like she had lost all her strength, her head hanging down. "It's over! You know, even though I had anticipated this situation and constantly reminded myself to bless him, I couldn't help but want to see him. I don't want him to be with another woman. Aunt Zoey, I know I'm being selfish, but I'm really sad. I can't bring myself to bless them."Zoey felt that the coffee was not sweet enough, so she added a cube of sugar and stirred it with a stirrer. "So, what do you plan to do?"Carolyn kept adding sugar cubes to her coffee cup, but luckily Zoey held her hand, otherwise she would have added so much that the coffee would over
After the meal, Danna directly invited Carsen to watch a movie.Carsen felt that this could be considered a successful blind date.He was not tired of Danna, and it was agreed by both elders, so he agreed to continue dating.Carolyn's heart sank instantly, she felt that Carsen had taken a liking to Danna, otherwise he wouldn't have agreed to go watch a movie.Zoey laughed and said, "Carolyn and I were going back to the Maddox's manor, so we'll take off first."She got in the car with Carolyn, and Carolyn sniffed sadly."It seems that I really had no hope. Carsen always treated me like a child, never seeing me as a woman. I once heard this saying, that it's not about which woman tries harder, but about the attitude of the man, who he likes is what matters most."Zoey rubbed her forehead and said, "Shall I take you back to the Maddox Manor?""I didn't want to go back, I wanted to go back to the apartment."Zoey knew she wanted to be alone, so she nodded and agreed.She took Carolyn back
Carsen almost ran two red lights, and he rushed there at the fastest speed.When he saw Aron and Clare, anger instantly surged in his heart.He approached the two of them, gripping Aron's collar with both hands, "Are you two still lingering around like ghosts?"Aron hummed and acted as if he was not afraid of scalding hot water, "What did I do? Can't I just take a walk? Are you restricting my personal freedom?"Carsen knew that the other party was throwing a tantrum, so he pushed Aron aside and looked at the security guard. "He is not the owner here, so don't let him in again. If something happens, who will be responsible?"Aron glared at him and said, "You were not the owner here either, and you were not allowed to enter!"Carsen sneered, "It's ridiculous that I couldn't be seen here in the Keller family's development."Upon hearing the words, the security guard immediately pushed Aron and Clare out of the residential area.Carsen called Carolyn, but no one answered after a few attem
Carsen watched as Carolyn walked in unsteadily, her eyes still closed. She must have been looking for the toilet.The bathroom and toilet at home were separate, so Carolyn went in the wrong direction.Carsen washed away the guilt on his hands, closed the faucet, and quickly grabbed his bathrobe to put on.The bathrobe was small, barely covering above his knees, and the sleeves were also a bit short, which looked very mismatched.He quickly fastened the belt and helped the person out into the restroom.After Carolyn took off her pants and finished using the toilet, she reached out her hand and said, "Toilet paper."Carsen looked at her with closed eyes and flushed cheeks, muttering in an adorable way, and quickly handed her a tissue from the floor.Carolyn finished using the toilet, pulled up her pants, washed her hands at the sink, and then left unsteadily.Carsen picked up the girl and she fell asleep in his arms. He gently placed her on the bed.He breathed a long sigh of relief as
Carsen glanced back and saw Danna walk in, taking a seat beside him.Danna laughed and said, "I saw you leaving in a hurry, so I called to ask if you needed any help. I didn't expect you were having dinner with friends here."Angelo explained, "It's not like that. Mr. Keller is my girlfriend Carolyn's uncle Carsen. The security guard just informed him that my girlfriend was in a bit of danger, so he hurriedly went to handle it. It's my fault, always busy, neglecting my girlfriend's feelings."Danna nodded, "You should be more careful with your girlfriend. The security guard knows that even Uncle Carsen doesn't know about you as her boyfriend."Angelo nodded lightly, "That's what my wife said."Danna covered her lips and smiled, "I just met Carsen, you're calling too soon."Angelo said earnestly, "But you two look very compatible, handsome man and beautiful woman. You must be the famous violinist Danna, right?"Danna smiled faintly, "Famous is an overstatement.""You were really too mo
Nancy looked at one portrait after another of Craig, and tears kept falling from her eyes.She held onto those paintings tightly, "Craig, I'm sorry..."If it weren't for her, Craig would have definitely found a beautiful girl, gotten married, had children, and lived a life that followed the usual routine.She was the source of all Craig's tragedies, and she was immersed in deep self-blame.Three days later, Dalton and Russell came back, unfortunately they did not bring Nacy with them.The village experienced a riot, and the villagers fled in all directions. Many people managed to escape, while others were captured by the rebels and sold to various parts of the world. They were too late to leave.It took some time to find Nancy, so they came back first.Dalton noticed Nancy's abnormality and took her for a psychological test, discovering that she had depression.After hearing about this, Zoey still recounted the matter that Nanc
Susie was not surprised to see Nancy, as Emmett had sent someone to deliver a message to her after finishing these tasks.She knew Nancy would definitely come to find her, after all, Nancy's child was gone and Craig was also dead, everything unfolded according to her plan.Originally, she also wanted Nancy to die, but later she changed her mind. The most tormenting thing for a woman is nothing but the inability to conceive again and the tragic death of a former lover.She wanted Nancy to suffer a fate worse than death!Compared to death, the living are the ones who suffered the most!Susie burst into laughter, her face twisted with a wicked and malicious expression, "Do you hate me so much?"Nancy said calmly, "I hated you because you disrupted my peaceful life. However, I must tell you that your plan did not entirely succeed."The smile on Susie's face froze in an instant, "What do you mean?"Nancy faintly curved her lips and
Your own mother?Last words?Difficult to conceive?A series of information overwhelmed Nancy, and she almost couldn't bear it and fell down. The tray in her hand also almost slipped.She closed her eyes, steadied her mind, held the tray, and held onto her last bit of dignity.Taking a deep breath, she turned around and went downstairs to the kitchen, placing the tray on the counter.The servant asked, "Mrs. Jenkins, didn't you bring it up?"Nancy forced a smile and said, "I just tripped on the stairs earlier and spilled some."The servant took a glance and indeed, it was true. She said, "In the future, leave this kind of rough work to us, you take good care and rest."Nancy thanked and said, "It's okay, I will repackage and deliver it again. If I stay at home and do nothing, I will become moldy and grow hair."The servant didn't say anything more, but watched as she filled two bowls of poached snow pear with hone
When Nancy woke up, it was in the middle of the night. She stared at the white ceiling, tears streaming down her face.Upon hearing the suppressed crying, Dalton, who had been in a deep sleep, suddenly woke up. His eyes were bloodshot and filled with red veins. "Nancy, Nancy, are you awake?"Nancy looked at him and pointed to her small belly, "Gone, right?"Dalton struggled to force a smile, "There will be more in the future, Nancy. We will have children again in the future."Nancy cried out, "Why did he survive the fire, survive the kidnapping, but couldn't survive that glass of orange juice? Why treat my child like this? What did he do wrong? That glass of orange juice was personally delivered to me by my mother, does she even know?"Dalton was worried about Nancy's postoperative bleeding and quickly grabbed her hand. "She is unaware, Nancy, what you need most now is to recover your body. You must not get emotionally excited, otherwise it can eas
Leanna noticed that Nancy didn't look too well and asked with concern, "Nancy, are you feeling unwell?"Nancy shook her head, "It's nothing, maybe it was just my imagination."Leanna knew that there was tension between Nancy and the Eaton family, so her bad complexion must have been a result of a recent unpleasant encounter with Reina.She didn't think much about it and came to the entrance of the banquet hall with Nancy.Zoey had just finished directing Roland to move the roses when she saw Nancy and couldn't help but ask, "Nancy, you don't look well, are you feeling unwell?"Nancy curved her lips, she didn't want everyone to think she was too fussy, so she shook her head."It's okay, I was fine, just a little nervous."Zoey held onto her arm and said, "Today, you were the most beautiful bride in the world, and Dalton was ready to welcome you."Nancy turned around and didn't see Craig's figure.He had promised her befor
Nancy fidgeted with her fingers uneasily, not because she was nervous about her wedding today, but because she had a constant feeling that something was about to happen.Susie seemed to give up her rights easily, even though she was not the type of person who easily gives up.Nancy raised her hand and placed it on her small abdomen. The baby was almost fourteen weeks old, having gone through a fire and being kidnapped, facing numerous hardships and challenges.She hoped to have a peaceful day today.Leanna, noticing Nancy's serious expression, walked over and leaned against the dressing table. "What's wrong, Nancy? Do you have something on your mind?"Nancy pursed her lips and raised her gaze, saying, "It was just an inexplicable feeling of unease."Leanna bent down and took her hand, "Don't be too nervous, Dalton has everything arranged. It's not a big deal if the flowers are a little wilted, Zoey is taking care of it."Just now, Zoe
After Nancy left, Leanna started urging Zoey to go to the hospital.Zoey said to modify Nancy's wedding dress before going, but Leanna couldn't wait and directly messaged Russell, saying that Zoey was feeling a bit unwell in the stomach and asked him to come pick her up.Leanna didn't joke about this kind of thing, Russell didn't even hold a meeting, he drove directly to come.Zoey was unaware of this, and was momentarily surprised when she saw Russell standing at the office door.However, she quickly realized that it must have been Leanna who sent him.Russell asked concernedly, "Why was your stomach feeling uncomfortable? Did you eat something cold or spicy? I was going to take you to the hospital, why were you still toughing it out? If Leanna hadn't messaged me, would you have kept enduring it?"Zoey had not answered the man's question yet, but Russell packed up her bag and was about to take her to the hospital.Zoey pursed her lip
The evidence of Susie's kidnapping and attempted murder is solid, so the Thatcher family came to demand justice, and the highest prosecutor's office in Lochcliff did not release the person.They resorted to threats and temptations, but it was in vain. Susie remained steadfast in her position.Susie's younger brother, Emmett Thatcher, went to see her. The man looked at her disheveled appearance and sneered, "Betrayed by your own people, how does it feel?"Susie looked at the madman in front of her and snorted, "If you came to see me as a joke, then get lost!""Tsk, you may look gentle, but your personality is really terrible. No wonder Randall didn't want you."Susie stared at him and suddenly got up to leave.Emmett laughed and said, "They were fighting for custody of Nacy, not to mention that the people from Lochcliff were quite powerful."Susie got excited and said, "That was my daughter, why did they take her away! Did Randall ask
Susie watched as Zoey and her group looked at her with indifference, and in an instant, she realized that they thought she was setting a trap for Nancy, when in fact, she was the one being lured into a trap.She boasted of her superior intelligence, but now she has fallen into someone else's trap, naturally feeling dissatisfied.She despised Randall, "I treated you well, and yet you sided with them! Why did you treat me like this?"Randall's eyes were cold and indifferent. "It was you who taught others how to treat you! Susie, you see me as a dog, but in my eyes, aren't you just a female dog?"Susie had never been subjected to verbal attacks, and she hated him so much that she suddenly pulled out a silver firearm from the waist of her bodyguard.Before she could pull the trigger, a syringe was shot into the back of her hand.In an instant, her entire arm became numb, and then half of her body followed suit. She couldn't hold herself up and k
