Joselyn was choosing clothes in front of the wardrobe when she received a message from Brodie.
"Brodie was already downstairs, what should I wear?"
She muttered to herself and carefully selected a white casual suit. She put on off-white snow boots and a matching oversized cashmere coat. She slung the latest Z&L Design horn-shaped bag over her shoulder and walked out the door.
She came out of the apartment building and saw a man leaning against the car door, making a phone call.
He was wearing a well-fitted light gray cashmere coat, with the off-white collar of his sweater just covering his Adam's apple, which was somewhat sexy. The crisp casual pants wrapped around his slender legs, with one leg slightly bent, exuding an air of indulgent elegance.
He looked like a character straight out of a comic book, and Joselyn couldn't help but pick up her phone and take a picture of Brodie.

Brodie suddenly realized that he had gotten a little too close to Joselyn these past few days, only to find out that she already had a boyfriend.He got too close, which was very inappropriate.It seems that he will have a sense of propriety in the future.He felt a bit uncomfortable for some reason, but he didn't know why.He walked over and sat across from Dwayne only after seeing the two of them separate.Joselyn used a fork to serve him the spinach, saying, "I thought the spinach was delicious, I didn't get to eat it during the previous two fondue meals."Dwayne asked, "When did you have fondue again? Why didn't you take me?"Joselyn glanced at him and said, "What do you mean, taking you everywhere? Brodie and I ate together.""No, that won't do. Next time, I must be there!""Going, going, going, so annoying." Joselyn had a disgusted look on her face.But in Brodie's eyes, their interaction was just the playfu
Brodie didn't order anything, and Deborah seemed a bit awkward."Why didn't you eat?""Not hungry."Deborah said, "So, how about you order a cup of coffee too? Just watching me eat like this makes me a little uncomfortable."At this point, Brodie had to call the waiter and ordered a cup of latte.Deborah asked, "Professor Keller, why didn't you have any plans to get married? I'm just curious, like you have already achieved success in your career, why are you still single?""Because I didn't meet anyone who made my heart beat faster." Brodie was determined to be straightforward and make the other person give up.Deborah paused, her hand gripping the knife and fork tightly, "What kind of girl would make you fall in love?"Brodie recalled Margaret, "big eyes, with two dimples when she smiled."Deborah was not familiar with Margaret, so she automatically thought of Joselyn.It was this jerk who ruined her chance at lo
Joselyn didn't understand Brodie's meaning. "What did you say? What would Dwayne misunderstand?"Brodie said, "You guys are not dating, right? Knowing that we had a close encounter just now, he might mind or even misunderstand you."Joselyn blinked in surprise and said, "Dwayne and I, boyfriend and girlfriend?"Brodie was also stunned, "Isn't it?""Of course not!" Joselyn laughed out loud. "Him and me, how could it be possible? Even if the world were to collapse, no, I should say even if there was only one man left in the world, we would never choose each other."Brodie didn't know why, but hearing her say that gave him a sense of relief.He probably felt a sense of guilt, maybe because he thought he had crossed a boundary with someone else's girlfriend.However, just now could also be considered taking advantage of Joselyn."I feel sorry, regardless of whether you had a boyfriend or not."Joselyn pursed her lips apologe
At that moment, Joselyn could only hear the sound of her own heartbeat.She thought, could it be that Brodie wanted to kiss her?Was she going to accept or refuse?Oh my God!How could she have such a thought?If it were Dwayne instead, she would definitely have refused immediately.What to do?Oh my God!What was she thinking, after all?Brodie extended his fingertips and wiped them on the corner of her lips, "Got a little bit of hot oil on them."Joselyn's face turned red all of a sudden. It turned out that she had thought Brodie wanted to kiss her.She sighed, feeling a hint of disappointment in her heart."Thank you. Shall we continue?"Brodie nodded lightly, "Okay."After Joselyn finished her explanation, Brodie started to pick up his pen and tried to draw.She discovered that the painting Brodie had done was probably the likeness of a woman, and she couldn't help but become
At that time, Deborah received photos sent by a private detective.There were people kissing on the ground, others buying couple-themed milk tea, and some happily dining at a fondue restaurant. Each photo stimulated her nerves and ignited anger in her heart.She didn't understand why Brodie would be interested in Joselyn, a stupid person, and she didn't understand what was wrong with herself.She thought about the comic convention that would take place in ten days. Her eyes flickered as she came up with a brilliant idea.She dialed a phone number and said, "Noah Wilkerson, are you going to attend the comic convention in a few days? How about I give you a gift?"***Joselyn didn't know what was wrong with Brodie, as he had been maintaining a distant and indifferent attitude towards her since that night.She invited him to have a meal, but he didn't go.She invited him to the art studio, but he said he didn't have time.Sh
Kinley and Laurel were discharged together three days later, and they went straight back to the Rosario's manor.Kinley called Joselyn and asked her to come to the Rosario's manor for dinner in the evening. He said that the butler would come to pick her up.Joselyn glanced at her wristwatch and realized that there was still one hour left until the agreed time.She contacted the butler and asked him to wait outside the flower shop in the community.She saved the sketch, took off her glasses, rubbed her eyes, and left the study to freshen up. After applying a light makeup, she changed into a casual wool knit suit and paired it with a matching tan long coat and snow boots. She grabbed her bag and went out.She went to the flower shop outside the community, picked two big bunches of carnations, and drove to the Rosario's manor.The butler said, "Tonight, the Rosario's manor had an important guest."Joselyn, who was smelling the fragrance
Joselyn was suddenly pulled into someone's arms and found herself lying on the strong chest of a man.She looked at Brodie in astonishment, "Professor Keller, you have had too much to drink."Brodie looked at her, his eyes dark and deep behind the lenses. He raised his hand and gently caressed the girl's delicate face, "I'm sorry, I really am sorry."Joselyn was very puzzled, "What sorry, what are you talking about?"Brodie didn't say anything more, but simply pressed her head against his chest.Joselyn listened to the man's low sobbing, and the constant rise and fall of his chest, knowing that he was crying.Didn't he just distance himself from her?Is it not to the extent of feeling guilty?Joselyn wanted to get up, but she found herself tightly bound by the man and unable to move at all."Professor Keller, what happened to you in the end?"Brodie just kept saying sorry.After a while, the man stopped nag
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.
This was Nancy's first month as Dalton and Nancy's daughter, and it was a day worth celebrating.Three people came to the amusement park and had fun and laughed together.Dalton looked at the multiple smiles on Nancy's face and couldn't help but curl his lips.He never believed throughout that children were a necessity in a marriage, they could be there or not.However, after Nancy became pregnant, he found himself looking forward to the child. But after Nancy had a miscarriage, he felt indifferent about not having a child.In the end, he realized that he loved Nancy, which is why he loved their children.If they didn't have children in the future, he would treat Nancy as his own child.Now they adopted Nancy and renamed her Nancy Jenkins. He treated her as his own biological daughter, as long as Nancy was happy.At first, he didn't have the feeling of being a father, but after this month of adjustment, he started to have that
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
