After exchanging some pleasantries, both of them remained silent for most of the journey. Paul was driving the car he usually drove. He could sense that Miranda wasn't in the best of moods, so he drove at a leisurely pace out of consideration for her. When they arrived at the entrance of the luxur
There was a hint of fear in Miranda's hoarse and trembling voice. She seemed like a frightened but helpless bird. Hansel felt his body burning up with lust. He gave up removing her top and slipped his hand directly under her skirt. Miranda panicked. "Hansel, you can have any woman you want! Why ar
Hansel wasn't one to back down either. He raised his fist and swung back at Paul. "How dare you hit me? Who do you think you are?" he snarled as he attacked Paul. "When I was being intimate with Miranda back then, you were just a nobody!"Paul intercepted his punch easily. Unlike Hansel's furious a
Miranda had loved Bartovian food served on the second floor of the cafeteria when she'd been a student. The cafeteria lady serving food there had a chubby face and had radiated warmth whenever she'd smiled. Every time she'd seen Miranda, she'd chat for a bit before generously adding an extra helpin
Once Miranda returned home, she immediately started arranging her books. She was drenched in sweat after she finished placing them neatly on the shelves. Walking into the living room after her shower, Miranda noticed the ointment she'd left on the coffee table. She picked it up and unscrewed the ca
"Come over," Hansel replied. On the other end, Ingrid almost jumped for joy under the covers when she read the message. She'd intentionally tried to test Hansel many times before, even with some hints of seduction. However, he'd never responded.Ingrid thought it would be the same this time as well
"Have you finally come to your senses?" Zach shot to his feet. "Are you going to stop acting like you're a man without any mortal desires?"Despite the sarcastic remarks, Hansel remained expressionless. He didn't even raise a brow."There's no special meaning to it, and it's not my first time doing
Miranda chuckled. "Shouldn't I be treating you instead?"Winter raised her brows. "We're best friends! It doesn't matter who treats who. Alright, it's decided! Get ready. I'm coming over to pick you up now."Miranda put her phone down and went to her room. She opened her closet and picked out a v-ne
"Mrs. Jefferson, you're too kind," Mindy said.Susan had a pretty good impression of Mindy. It wasn't just because of the dress back then, but also because of Mindy's family background. She came from a truly prestigious and prominent lineage as a lady of the Garrison family. However, she met with m
"Felix? Susan?" Miranda exclaimed. She was momentarily stunned to see them standing at the front door with a suitcase. Her eyes widened in surprise. Paul turned to her and said helplessly, "Miranda… my parents are here."She quickly regained her composure and stepped forward with a smile. "Felix, S
Under Susan's gaze, Jenny felt a chill run down her spine. "You… Why are you acting so weird? Are you mute? You don't look like it from how you're dressed."She shot Susan a glare and muttered, "Crazy woman," before heading back into her apartment building. Susan stayed rooted to the spot. Her face
They made it back from the school to Harold's place just in time for dinner. After dinner, Lionel and his family said their goodbyes. Upon seeing this, Leonard's family made their exit right after. Jenny walked them to the door before collapsing onto the couch, clutching her lower back. "What a ti
Paul's genes ensured both good looks and a decent figure. On top of that, judging by how generous he was with his gifts, he clearly wasn't just an ordinary college professor. He probably came from an affluent family. Elite families like his often went back several generations, which meant his rela
Since it was the end of the year, the students were all on holiday. The vast school grounds felt a little deserted. Dallas Urban, the school's security guard, noticed Lionel coming from a distance. He stepped out of the guard booth and greeted him cheerfully, "Mr. Sutton!" Then his gaze landed on
"There's still a pile of pots and pans in the kitchen waiting to be cleaned," Jenny complained."I'm just like a maid that's born to toil endlessly, unlike you who can enjoy such an easy life. "You should really learn from Lionel. He cooks every time they host a gathering. You two are brothers, but
"I'm cooking something," Paul said. "Why are you cooking this late at night?" Susan asked. "I wanted a midnight snack."Susan knew her son didn't normally eat late. Clearly, he was cooking for someone else. The thought worsened her mood. "When are you planning to come back to Elgerson?" she asked
Suddenly, Miranda stopped walking. She turned to face Paul and said seriously, "Thank you, Paul, for coming to Lumberville to spend Christmas with me. And… thank you for being in my life."Paul was slightly taken aback. Then, he gently squeezed her hand. "You dummy. I should be the one thanking you.
