A person came running over, holding a bottle and splashed out the liquid inside.Carolyn, who stood up instantly when she saw Carsen, had not yet realized the impending danger. Her gaze followed the direction in which the man moved.Immediately after, the back of her head was pressed against the man's chest, and darkness filled her vision.The man's groaning sound resounded above her head, followed by the sound of people around screaming in shock.Carolyn knew something must have happened, "Uncle Carsen, what's wrong?"Carsen let go of her and held her shoulders, anxiously asking, "Are you okay?"Carolyn looked up at him, sweat dripping down his forehead. "I'm fine. What's wrong with you?"Carsen looked back and saw that the man had already been subdued by the late-arriving bodyguard, forced to kneel on the ground, with his masked face being stepped on.The owner of the wonton shop, upon seeing the situation, immediately called the police and dialed the ambulance's number.The people
Zoey comforted Carolyn, "Don't cry, Carsen helping you in times of disaster shows that you are important to him, right? Will thinking like this make you happier?"Carolyn shook her head, "Because he was a qualified elder."She would not assume romantically that Carsen liked her.It could also be that he kissed her last time, so he felt guilty.She just couldn't tell Zoey because it was a bit embarrassing.Zoey sighed softly and hugged the little girl, gently patting her back.Although the two of them were similar in age, Zoey was much more mature than her. Carolyn was too well-protected.However, the bodyguard would also have had a responsibility for what happened today.Carolyn asked, "Will it leave a scar?"Zoey nodded and said, "The wound was large and deep, it was inevitable to leave a scar."Carolyn was extremely upset at the thought of Carsen having a lifelong scar on his back.Zoey said, "Fortunately, Carsen helped you block it, otherwise as a girl, no matter where you got hurt
Carsen was already very annoyed with Danna's assertiveness and initiative at the moment.But when he saw Danna give him a signal, followed by Arturo coming in, Danna mouthing the words 'please', he remembered the thing he had promised her.Just thinking about it, in just ten days, he would completely no longer have to have any relationship with this person, so he nodded.Zoey saw that Carsen had already made his statement, so there was nothing more to say.After completing the admission procedures, Carsen was transferred to the intensive care unit.Arturo was brought back home by the butler, Zoey went to find Carolyn, and there were only Carsen and Danna in the hospital room.Carsen lay on the sickbed, his eyes staring blankly, his expression filled with immense pain, his forehead covered in beads of sweat.Danna approached with a towel, wanting to help him wipe off the sweat, but Carsen suddenly opened his eyes, his voice cold."No need."Danna's hand holding the towel paused in mid-
After Angelo hung up the phone, he received a series of incoming calls from unfamiliar numbers.He picked up the phone and said, "Hello."The other party got straight to the point and said, "I am Danna, and I worked with you.""Cooperation?" Angelo felt that this woman was not ordinary, and he asked tentatively, "What kind of cooperation?""You must have already known about Carsen shielding Carolyn from vitriol. Do you think you still have a chance once Carsen finds out that he is not Carolyn's boyfriend, but the person she likes?"Angelo gritted his teeth and said, "Did you investigate me?"Danna laughed and said, "No need for investigation at all. Carsen said Carolyn has a boyfriend, and you and Carolyn are so close. Who spread this kind of rumor and intentionally acted like this, it's easy to guess. Do you know what Carsen told me? He said he's willing to wait for Carolyn. How long can this lie of you being Carolyn's boyfriend last without being exposed? One year, two years, five y
Carsen's anesthesia stick lost its effectiveness, and he was in so much pain that he couldn't sleep. So, he picked up his phone and started flipping through photos.He stored all the photos from the past four years in his phone. Although he was into technology, he was not particularly skilled with electronic devices, and he only needed to fix the system to make it run very fast.He slowly flipped through it, and there were many photos of Carolyn inside, but they were all group photos.He enlarged the photo and saw the little girl's smiling face, her eyes curved like a small moon, causing a slight smile to appear at the corner of his lips.The caregiver looked at the photos on the phone screen and smiled, "Is she your girlfriend?""No," Carsen replied, feeling a bitter sadness in his heart.The caregiver said, "Look at her expression, it's all happiness, unlike the young lady earlier. If you two were together, you would definitely be a couple of resentful spouses. I thought the young l
Carsen pressed his tongue against his molars, and after a moment, he suddenly burst into laughter.Angelo was actually very guilty, he didn't know what means Carsen would use to deal with him if he found out that he had deceived him.The Keller family and the Maddox family were the top aristocratic families in Lochcliff, with a significant gap between them and the other elite families, let alone the Rosario family.The Keller family and the Maddox family could easily crush the Rosario family with a flick of their fingers.He just really liked Carolyn, and he was willing to take a risk to exchange for a chance.Angelo questioned, "What's so funny about you? Did I hit the nail on the head with your thoughts? Using the excuse of being uncle and nephew to hide your feelings for Carolyn, don't you find it disgusting?"Carsen's smile disappeared, and he said coldly, "I have no blood relation with Carolyn, and the Keller family and the Maddox family don't care about titles at all. Why does t
Carolyn lowered her gaze like a guilty child, "My parents don't know about this yet."Davis frowned, "You're grown up now, you have your own ideas, but why didn't you discuss this big matter of going abroad with your family? If these procedures don't go through today, are you thinking of waiting until you're overseas to talk about it?"Carolyn wanted to tell everyone the day before she went abroad, in order to avoid any opposition.She was a little nervous and asked in a low voice, "So, if I want to go abroad, do you guys agree?"Tabitha sighed and said, "It's a good thing that you want to study abroad, but it's not right to keep it a secret from everyone. If you just speak up, there will be people to help you with all these complicated procedures. And what about that classmate of yours, does he have ulterior motives towards you? Or are you two in a romantic relationship? Carolyn, Grandma has noticed that you're burdened with something. If there's anything you can talk about, we can f
Carolyn felt extremely embarrassed. She bit her lower lip and then covered her cheeks with both hands.Aubrie smiled kindly and said, "What's there to be shy about with your mom? Liking someone is not something to be embarrassed about! Who hasn't had a crush on someone before?"Carolyn peered through the cracks and asked curiously, "Have you ever had a crush on someone too?"Aubrie nodded and said, "Of course, at the age of first love, having a crush is very normal."Carolyn moved her hand away and asked, "So, how is the person you had a crush on doing now?""He became my husband."Carolyn blinked her eyes and said, "It seems like I ate a stomach full of dog food!"Aubrie nodded, "I fed your dog for you."Carolyn nodded emphatically and said, "You said it, I was a country bumpkin and I loved hearing it!"Aubrie raised an eyebrow, feeling a bit proud, "Your dad had a crush on me for a longer time than I had a crush on him!"Carolyn smacked her lips and said, "Hmm, this dog food was rea
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.
