Carolyn was driving, and Carsen was lying on the back seat of the car, looking at the backrest.A few days ago, his heart felt like it had been ripped out, causing intense pain and suffocation.He knew it was all because of Carolyn.He recalled the past and realized that the little girl had always been by his side all these years. Now, suddenly she was gone, and he was not used to it.The feeling was like a pillow that he used to sleep with every night, suddenly gone. He would then suffer from insomnia, restlessness, and madness.At that moment, his mood improved, and he felt a sense of relief in his heart.He suddenly remembered that he had not explained his relationship with Danna to her."Carolyn.""Hmm?""I had no relationship with Danna. I had rejected her before, but she wanted to wait until after Arturo's birthday banquet to announce that we were not together. If she and I didn't work out, Arturo would arrange a blind date for her at the banquet, and she wanted to leave the cou
When Carolyn and Carsen entered the apartment building, they happened to run into the security guard.The security guard and Carsen greeted each other, "He came back with his niece."Carsen had previously left his phone number with the security guard, instructing him to call if he encountered Aron and Clare. The security guard had promptly informed Carsen the last time.Carsen chuckled, "Actually, we were not uncle and niece. I was her suitor."Security guard. “Oh!"After the two entered the elevator, the security guard exclaimed, "I was so concerned! It turns out the young couple were playing role-playing games here for half a day! But they really look like a perfect match!"The two of them returned to Carsen's apartment, and it was Carolyn's first time there.She looked around and found that the colors here were just as monotonous as Carsen's, with black, white, and gray being the main theme."I went to fetch water first and gave you medicine.""Okay."Because the layout of the hous
After Carsen applied the ointment, he took Carolyn back upstairs.Carolyn said goodnight to him and then closed the door.She wanted to look outside through the peephole, but she was worried about being caught by Carsen as she was spying on him.So I could only press my ear against the door to listen to the sounds outside.It was not until a good while later that footsteps could be heard outside the door.Upon hearing the sound of the elevator doors opening and closing, Carolyn finally breathed a sigh of relief, and she could finally release her joyful emotions.She excitedly ran several laps in the living room, "I am so happy, so excited, so thrilled! Oh my goodness, I have made it!"She ran crazily for more than ten minutes before finally stopping, collapsing on the sofa, panting heavily.She raised her hand and wiped her forehead, only to find it covered in sweat. So she took her phone and went into the bathroom, getting ready to take a bubble bath in the bathtub.She looked at the
Carolyn let Carsen hold her hand, feeling secretly delighted.The man's large hand was broad and warm, tightly enclosing her small hand in his palm. The sensation felt as if an electric current was flowing from his palm to her heart.Carolyn had fantasized about holding hands with someone, it was sweet but without that heart-pounding feeling almost leaping out of her throat.Carsen was also nervous, it was the first time he held a girl's hand, which was very soft and smooth.He reluctantly let go of Carolyn's hand only when they got on the car."Carolyn, this was the first time I held a girl's hand."Carolyn looked at him and blurted out, "So, was it also your first time kissing a girl?"She pursed her lips and regretted asking the question, making it seem like she cared a lot.Carsen looked at the little girl, who lowered her gaze and pursed her lips. He chuckled lightly and said, "That was my first kiss."First Kiss?Carolyn's heart blossomed instantly upon hearing those words. She
Carolyn looked at Carsen's sincere expression and couldn't help but feel like laughing.She was really curious about what Carsen's reaction would be if he found out that he was the scumbag.She held the last bite of cake in her mouth, "I know, I'm giving you a chance now, so you better make the most of it."Carsen's eyes behind the golden frame of his glasses curved slightly, "Okay."The moment he thought about Carolyn being able to say that she no longer wanted to see that scumbag, it made him instantly overjoyed.After all, no matter how Carsen tried to persuade Carolyn before she got drunk, she wouldn't listen.The current situation is gradually improving, and he did not ask Carolyn to change all at once. After all, when someone has been living in one's heart for so long, it is not something that can be forgotten in a short time.Carsen picked up a tissue to wipe the corners of her lips, "You've eaten like a little kitten."Carolyn stared at the man's gentle appearance, her heart a
Because Carsen's back got wet in the rain, Carolyn went home with him to clean his wounds and apply ointment.She sat on the edge of the bed, applying ointment as she said, "Your back is healing quite fast, but you must absolutely avoid getting it wet again.""Got it," Carsen responded, "Tomorrow night, we'll just go through the motions at the birthday banquet, give our birthday gifts, and then leave. I'll take you to a nice place.""Can you give me a hint? Where are you taking me?" Carolyn finished applying the ointment, threw the cotton swab into the trash can, and closed the lid of the ointment.Carsen propped himself up with both hands and sat up. He smirked and said, "No, that won't do. It needs to have a bit of mystery.""Oh, just tell me, please! Pretty please!" Carolyn, who was already naturally well-behaved and beautiful, softened everyone's heart with her coquettishness.Carsen smiled and was about to speak, but Carolyn suddenly reached out and covered the man's mouth. "Don'
The next day, Carolyn groggily opened her eyes.She was awakened by the smell of food, and she got up to freshen up, putting on a beautiful white lace dress, looking obedient and sweet.She entered the kitchen and saw Carsen juicing the fruits.The man turned his head and his lips curved into a beautiful arc. "Awake already? Why don't you sleep a little longer?"Because the food was so delicious, the glutton in my stomach was awakened.Carsen wiped his hands and walked up to Carolyn, standing just a half step away from each other.He lowered his head and kissed the little girl's tempting pink lips, "Good morning, my princess."Carolyn pursed her lips and smiled, feeling extremely sweet in her heart. "So, are you a knight or a prince?"Carsen said, "You were both a prince and a knight, only for you alone."Not only Carolyn, but also Zoey always thought that Carsen was very reserved, but now it seems that Carsen's sweet words are like wholesale, one set after another."How come you are
Carsen and Carolyn returned to the apartment.Carsen handed her the bag and said, "Go ahead and try it on. If it doesn't fit, let Zoey adjust it for you."Carolyn exclaimed and took the bag before running into the closet.Carsen looked at the closed door and couldn't help but find it funny. Was he being treated like a thief?Was he a peeping tom?He thought about it and indeed there was an impulse to go in and take a look.Thinking this way, he felt a little thirsty and went into the kitchen to drink water.Carolyn entered the dressing room and looked at two dresses, unsure of which one to choose.One is a pearl white knee-length dress with a one-shoulder design. The skirt is slightly fluffy, giving it a playful and cute style. The neckline is adorned with pearls, each one of them being evenly sized, giving it an overall sense of design.Another one is a light purple sleeveless slim-fit long dress, with a slightly fishtail-style hem, and an overall design that is simple and elegant.C
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
Nancy was put on a black hood, and her heart was pounding.To be honest, she was very afraid of death now, because she still had a child in her womb.If she were alone, she would never become a burden or a weakness to anyone.As long as there was a glimmer of hope, she would try to survive.The car drove for a long time before stopping. Nancy was taken out of the car and was unsteadily pushed towards the inside.Not knowing what she tripped over, she fell to her knees on the ground.She felt a sharp pain, as her arms were supported by two people and she continued to walk forward.It seemed like she had taken a few turns before she was finally put down by someone.Nancy's knee was hurting terribly, but she still stood up straight.Because the eyes couldn't see, the ears seemed to be particularly useful at this time.She heard a woman's voice, to be precise, Susie's voice.She had only met Susie twice, but th
Dalton's heart tightened suddenly as Russell fell silent.He subconsciously disagreed in his heart, after all, if Nancy were to encounter any problems, it would be a matter of life and death. He dared not take this risk.If not done so, Susie was like a time bomb, ready to explode at any moment.Susie relied on the Thatcher family. The Thatcher family had their hands in both legal and illegal activities, secretly training assassins and having people specifically assigned to clean up crime scenes for the assassins. Therefore, she felt invincible.Russell came up with this idea because if Susie were to attack again at Lochcliff, he would have a way to detain her.However, the Thatcher family needed someone, and Russell had a way to incriminate her.Dalton remained silent for a long time, "You made me think about it."Russell did not persuade him anymore, because he knew Dalton would consider what consequences would develop if things con
This was the first time the two of them had a peaceful conversation, and it was surprising to see how harmoniously the rivals could get along.Randall chuckled lightly and said, "No need, I couldn't trouble you and Nancy."Dalton didn't like to drink coffee, but today he ordered an iced Americano, which was rare for him. The bitterness made him frown."I don't know how you could drink it."Randall caressed the walls of the coffee cup, "I suppose it was because my heart was too bitter, but after drinking this, it didn't feel as bitter anymore."Dalton looked at the man, who had been disheveled for several days, and without the initial hostility, he unexpectedly felt some sympathy.Randall laughed and said, "Don't look at me like that, I didn't need sympathy.""Sorry," Dalton looked at him, "Nancy told me about your past. To be honest, if it weren't for those obstacles, you would have built a cozy little home together. I'm quite envious
After they received the certificate, Dalton moved Nancy's luggage from the apartment to his home.When she came back, Nancy had a feeling of things having changed.Although it was still in black and white, the cold tones didn't seem as cold anymore.Indeed, what affects one's emotions is not the environment but rather one's mood.Dalton saw her standing at the entrance and asked, "Why aren't you going in? Is it because you don't like this style of decoration? I was thinking that since you're pregnant, you shouldn't stay on the villa side anymore. Even if the newly renovated one is environmentally friendly, it may still have some odor. I'm worried that your morning sickness will be severe."Nancy couldn't smell pungent odors these past few days, such as garlic, chives, and onions.Dalton felt that this place was closer to his hospital, so if there was an emergency, it would be more convenient for him to rush back. Otherwise, staying at Nancy'
During Nancy's hospitalization, both Eugene and Chelsea came to visit.At that time, they still didn't know about her pregnancy.Chelsea cooked Manhattan clam chowder for her.She sat by the sickbed and fed Nancy.Nancy was very embarrassed, after all, her own mother had never treated her like this."I could do it myself."Chelsea shook her head and said with regret, "I have always hoped to have a daughter, but after giving birth to Dalton, my ovarian function deteriorated and I can no longer have children. When I first saw you, I liked you. You have a dignified and elegant appearance, although you can be a bit cold, but you don't give off an arrogant vibe. I was especially happy when you and Dalton got engaged. I know you both had reservations about the arranged marriage, but I believe you can make it work. Things were going as we expected, Dalton was in a good mood for a while, and he even called us without impatience. I knew your relation
