That's right, and she's not old; her 24th birthday hasn't passed yet! But the fact that she has a son who is almost six years old is also actual. Fiona Forger carefully looked at herself in the mirror, her so-called pretty and delicate face, fair and flawless skin; if there were anything on her body worth comparing with others, it would be only her skin. This natural white is worth it; not being blackened by the Melbourne sun is not bad.
If she didn't say it, no one would know she was so young that she became a mother! No matter how you look at it, she's still very young and cute!
But in this world, the most afraid is comparison! Who told Fiona Forger she had a mother of unparalleled grace and beauty?If people compare her with a mother with a beautiful body and face, people who don't know her might think that she is not a biological child.
But the truth is the truth; she is the biological daughter of her parents; otherwise, how could she carry her properly into the main gate of the Forger family?
Probably because the gene is mutated; otherwise, how could that be? She had seen pictures of her father when she was young; he can also be considered a handsome man, although his age has made him not as attractive as in the past; his two sons and daughters with his previous wife are lovely.
It is often said that if you are not beautiful on the outside, you can use the smart to compensate, but why does she always feel that her mind doesn't seem to be inherited from the two of her mom and dad? She is always not enough.
Her half-brother got a doctorate in England, and her sister, who is only a year older than her, is unwilling to be weak. She quickly passed the entrance exam to the business academy of Haward University and achieved excellent results.
As for her poor academic performance, she, thanks to her father's face, was reluctantly accepted by a private university.
Therefore, human versus human is impossible.
'Miss Forger, breakfast's made; eat.'
Puddy Forger's cry interrupted Fiona Forger's train of thought. What do you think about the old days? Right now, there was nothing more important than her genius son.
She grabbed her bag and opened the door, 'Here it is!'
After breakfast, Cherry Desmond came to take the boy out; Fiona Forger took a taxi to the Forger family's house.When she returned to the Forgers' house, she hadn't met her father and mother when she met a group of her father's relatives with their children coming down from upstairs to visit her father.
Despite being away from home for many years, Fiona Forger certainly did not lose her memory to the extent that she did not recognize these relatives who had always looked down on her with disdain. Although there were hundreds of thousands of unwillingnesses in her heart, she still didn't dare to ignore it and greeted everyone politely.
As an elder, this is the big house of the Forger family; even though I don't like those relatives, I still have to give Fiona Forger a little face, vaguely answer a few questions, and then leave, but the other young ladies are not polite, stopped her, said that he had not seen her for a long time and wanted to chat with her a few words.
What are they talking about? Before, they most despised having any relationship with her, two people from a different worlds. Now, why take the initiative to come with her to review the old story?
The housekeeper saw that the situation was wrong and quickly went upstairs to report it to the owner.
Even if Fiona Forger does not have much status in the family, she is still a Forger family member; now, the situation is different; if there is more civil war, the day of collapse is not far away.
'Fiona Forger, have you been studying abroad for the past few years?' Lady A asked elegantly while applying chalk.
'YES.' She did not want to share her private life abroad for the past few years with people she was not too familiar with, only vaguely answering a question.'What economics are you studying?' Lady B raised her glasses-wearing eyes and asked gracefully.
'Not.' Didn't they know how bad her performance was that year, and now they're asking this deliberately? Don't they want her to look bad?
Fiona Forger felt that by her ability, talking to them would suffer, as expected...
'What joke are you talking about? Using her intelligence to study economics, wouldn't the Forgers collapse faster?' Lady C said with disdain.
'Don't talk about studying anymore. Fiona Forger, there is something that we sisters have always wondered about but have not answered for many years; I just met you today, so don't mind me asking directly?' Having finished applying powder, Lady A signaled to the other two to stop.
'What?' Fiona Forger looked at the three red-haired girls in dismay in front of her.
'We still don't understand why you dared to break up the marriage that year?'
'That's right; a Norman Desmond is gone, immediately there is a better choice; you have a problem in your mind; how dare you not respect the true grandson of the Desmonds?'
'We looked back and forth and couldn't see how so many men liked you; why did Norman Desmond agree to marry you that year and finally decide to get engaged? Only the facts have been proven. The photographer considered the most promising in Asia, has used actions to prove that you cannot catch people's eyes. And you still can make the young master of the Desmond family agree to marry. Is there any more reason in this world?'
Even more unreasonable is that she even dared to break the marriage. This shook Singapore at that time.
Come to think of it, the eldest son of the Desmond family in the marketplace before he won the battle, now returning to Singapore to take over the family's career, is the elite in the elite compared to the more elite Norman Desmond.'
'I also feel the condition, Mr. Desmond, is excellent.'
'What's so hot about? By Damian Desmond's terms, how could it be your turn?'
'Is it your turn?'
The topics of the three girls changed momentarily, and in addition to their constant chatter, Fiona Forger dropped her eyes right away, not intending to answer them.
Bla bla bla said for a long time that the heroine didn't pay attention; of course, she lost interest. Lady C patted her shoulder, 'Hey, dear cousin, we're asking you.'
'What?' Their last non-nutritious words, Fiona Forger actively ignored them.
Her three cousins were furious when they heard that and were about to get angry when a sweet voice came from the stairs, 'Fiona Forger, why don't you come home and visit your dad? He's been waiting a long time!'
It was her mother who came to rescue her. Although waiting for a while to go upstairs will be scolded, the good thing is, there is no need to talk about such useless topics with these ladies.
An apologetic smile appeared on Fiona Forger's face, and then she darted upstairs, leaving the three girls with disapproving expressions.
***
Damian Desmond had just chaired an important meeting and returned to his office to pick up his private phone, but there were no missed calls.
After thinking for a while, he called home and answered Butler John.
'Did anyone call my house today to find me?'
'Do not have.' Butler John answered firmly and then inquired, 'Young master waiting for the phone? Do you need me to bring your private number...'
'No need.' Damian Desmond said emphatically, 'I have work to do.'
He had just disconnected his cell phone when the intercom rang, 'Boss, the General Manager of Lancom Corporation is here.'
From childhood to adulthood, Fiona Forger has always known herself very well; from a young age, she realized that her existence was evidence for the destruction of other people's homes, although, in the end, she was still accepted by the official language surnamed Forger, her mother also successfully married into the Forger family. Still, she did not think she had turned from a sparrow to a phoenix.It is said that a wealthy and influential family, like the vast sea, is not wrong; only the tangled relationships between people have made her a problematic step, let alone having any close friends.
People in the upper society don't like her, don't like her mother, think that they are all runners of the family, come to share something, so except for dad, often talks with mother and daughter, brother and sister have always considered her mother and her like air.Even her grandmother, before her father and mother registered, forced her mother to sign a certificate that she would not dispute property with her two actual grandchildren and also asked a lawyer to make a will later on the family's property. The eldest grandsons, Jacky Forger and Liliana Forger, inherited the Forger surname.
What her mother got when she married into the Forgers was just a living allowance she gave every March and some jewelry. Fiona Forger got the Forger household registration and better education conditions, never mind.
Being rich doesn't mean you can spend it on your own; that year, when her mother brought her little daughter into the Forger family, her grandmother was still the leading power in the house; even her father was just a job. Every month, waiting for dividends to be paid, the elders in the place manage money very seriously. Fortunately, her father is the general manager, and the salary and bonuses are also not less, so he can adequately provide for the mother and daughter.A woman whose husband pampers, no one dares to underestimate her position in the family. Fortunately, her mother has never been proud of her grace and has faced the contempt of her family members as well did not put it in her heart, wholeheartedly studying to do an excellent job as a lady, so her father respected and loved it even more, taking this little wife with her wherever she went.
But once she got the title of "little wife," other ladies in the upper society naturally did not give her any face worth talking about.
Fiona Forger does not hope far away that all the Forgers consider her mother and she is their family, but she often sneaks a glimpse of her brother and half-sister being loved by her grandmother. ..
In front of outsiders, everyone is naturally happy with the mother and her, just afraid of being accused of bias, but, even looking at her once friendly, they don't want to anymore.Fiona Forger didn't expect one day to be able to call her "grandma" or "brother" or "sister" intimately because she knew they hated her.
In front of them, she was always obedient, not daring to speak loudly, not daring to get angry, even smiling.
She always wanted to personally express her position to the Forgers, even if it was just a sentence, telling them that she and her mother had never intended to divide the property.
It's just her mother married into the Forger family; what can a stepdaughter like her do? So she still didn't get a chance to tell them clearly because they didn't want to hear a word from her.
There was no chance in the past, nor will it be in the future.
If Grandma met her now, they would treat her coldly. Otherwise, they would scold her for fear that she would fight for property. Even though the stock of the Forger Corporation has hit rock bottom now, even though her half-brother has left the Forger family, even though she already has her grandmother's ready-made will in the hands of a lawyer but suddenly she was given the position of acting general manager by her father, moreover, under unknown circumstances, transferring to her a third of the shares of Forger Corporation, even if she wanted to speak up now. It's hard not to imagine the Forger family's fortune before...
"What?" She opened her eyes and turned around, her clear gaze meeting his deep one."I'm sorry. And... thank you.""I love you."Between them, there was no need for words like "sorry" and "thank you.""I love you too." His words had barely finished when his warm lips sealed hers, and in his heart, he silently vowed to love her even more, erasing any lingering hurt and scars she had endured.o0oOn their wedding night, though late, it finally arrived.This was destined to be a gentle and dreamy night, a night he had been waiting for so long.He was careful and tender to the extreme when treating this girl he loved and cherished.And she, her restless heart, couldn't hide her anticipation.The water in the bathtub rippled incessantly due to their late-night intimate combination.In the warm bedroom, the curtain lightly swayed in the night breeze."Still hurting?"He held her and pityingly kissed her sweat-drenched long hair.Ember Canen shook her head, her small, blushing face brimming
"Yes." Brad reached into his pocket, took out a pack of cigarettes, and handed it to him."You can go back now. Please help me lock up on your way." Holding the pack of cigarettes, he pulled one out and lit it."Alright." Brad knew that, at this moment, his boss didn't want to be disturbed by anyone. The mess in the office could only be cleaned up by the cleaning staff tomorrow.He silently left, casually closing the office door behind him.Chris Desmond picked up his mobile phone, now turned off due to the earlier throw. With a cigarette in his mouth, he walked to the window and looked down at the mesmerizing night scene below. However, he had no mood to appreciate it.When the call connected, he exhaled a puff of smoke and decisively said, "Immediately arrange for someone to go to Malaysia. I want to know her exact location within two hours."They couldn't hide her away like this, preventing him from meeting her. If there were any issues or requests, they should tell him. He would d
The whole family came to the house only to leave empty-handed. In the end, everyone went their own way.Originally, Damian Desmond intended to take both mother and child home before heading to the company. However, both insisted that he go to the company, so he could only lead them along.Upon reaching the office on the top floor, Mr. Desmond went to work while Mrs. Desmond comfortably lay on the sofa reading a comic. Oh, not the 18+ type, but a parenting comic.Young Mr. Forger was sitting at the desk chatting with his father for a while, but he got bored and ran to the IT room on the 19th floor to play.The people in the IT room saw the young prince arrive and hurriedly welcomed him, offering various drinks and breakfast with care.After playing for more than two hours, young Mr. Forger finally got up lazily when the upper floor called to remind him to come to eat."Young prince, if the CEO finds out you're playing like this, we..."There would be no place to hide!But would they da
But family members, at least, should be notified, right?Speaking of family, she had yet to tell her mother. She should find an opportunity to talk to her.She reclined back onto the bed, tossing and turning for a while without being able to sleep.So, she picked up her phone again and went online. When Jacky Forger returned to the room and saw her still messing with her phone, he snatched it away and placed it on the bedside table."Go to sleep." "And you? Are you still busy?"It was almost midnight."Tomorrow, I have to go to Lyon for a trip. Do you want to come with me?"Liliana usually handled the matters over there, so now she suddenly mentioned her unsuitable physical condition as an excuse. He would still have to go there to take over the work, conveniently monitoring the ongoing projects' progress."Do you want to take me out?""If you say you want to, then sure."They were a married couple, yet he didn't have much free time for her. Their wedding had been delayed, and they di
She discreetly glanced at him and saw that he was still motionless, with an unpleasant and frightening expression on his face.If this had been in the past, seeing him like this would have made her legs tremble and unsteady. Even though they had been living together for a while, looking at him still sent shivers down her spine.Carefully approaching, she bent her back to lift the tea tray, but she heard him speak..."Come here!"These were just two simple words, yet they held a power that made others hesitate.She let out a sigh and obediently walked over. Before she even reached his side, he stood up and pulled her towards him. He used force to press her onto the sofa, and before she could react, his entire body was pressing down on her."Jacky..." Angela Zylian let out a cry. Her chin was held and turned towards him; his lips, carrying the faint scent of cigarettes, were pressed tightly against hers.She knew he was angry. From his actions, she could sense the invisible anger he was
As soon as Mrs. Robinson asked this question, Angela Zylian froze. She thought they knew the situation, but being asked like this caught her off guard. For a moment, she didn't know how to respond. Ultimately, under Mrs. Robinson's scrutinizing gaze, she decided to tell the truth. "Previously, we had a... romantic relationship...""And now?" Mrs. Robinson had already guessed the answer to this question. There was nothing new here. What she wanted to know was the current status.After all, they hadn't been living together before.A couple of times, Mrs. Robinson and Liliana had been to her brother's apartment, but they had never seen any trace of a girl."Now she's my wife. Any objections?" A familiar voice replaced Angela Zylian's answer.Jacky Forger had returned home at some point. Holding a document folder and a freshly removed vest, he stood at the living room entrance. His casual gaze swept over his mother and sister. "Why didn't you let me know before coming?"When his mother ha
