After dropping Miranda and Paul off, Winter drove to the bar. The ride was smooth. But just as she was about to park at the bar entrance, a Maserati zipped in from the side and slammed into her rear.Winter was furious. She slammed her door and marched to the front of the other vehicle. "What the he
After Mira finished speaking, she turned and walked away in her high heels.Zach chuckled and dismissed her words with a scoff. He found the idea of unrequited love laughable.After she left, a young woman in a plaid mini-skirt stepped out of the bar. Her long, fair legs were exposed, and her curly
Zach had a more comprehensive network than Alexander.Winter studied Zach, who seemed so confident, and her gaze turned skeptical. "Are you sure you want to talk about collaboration with me?"Zack replied, "Of course. But why are you looking at me like that? Do you think I can't handle it?"She size
"Where's the security? Someone stop them now," someone from the front desk said.In the chaos, Lucy dropped the pretense and shouted at the top of her lungs. "Where's Evelyn Stewart? I'm looking for her. Get her out here now!"She and her son, Franklin York, had arrived in Elgerson two days ago. The
The commotion in the lobby quickly caught the attention of the ladies gathered in the private room. They saw Evelyn being yanked by the hair while Lucy had her in a furious grip and shouted insults.This was about to get interesting. The ladies looked at each other and exchanged knowing glances.See
"Where have you been? I've been trying to call you for days. Have you really stopped caring about me?" Evelyn asked in one breath. The urgency in her voice escalated with each inquiry.Hansel replied calmly, "I'm on a business trip. I'm busy and can't answer the phone.""Come home now. I mean right
"If you don't want to wait, you can leave. It's not like anyone's itching to see you." Winter smirked. "How do you expect anyone to help you with that attitude?"Zach took a deep breath and felt the weight of the pressure bearing down on him. He knew she practiced Taekwondo. If he upset her, he woul
"Crap!" Winter slapped away the hand resting on her shoulder and stood upright. She was secretly relieved that she had tossed the cigarette butt earlier.After much effort, Miranda finally managed to close her mouth. "Uh… Winter, you forgot your bag…"She merely came over to return the bag, but what
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.
Yale wasn't too pleased. "But… I was just trying to clear the way for you. Am I wrong for doing that?"He couldn't help but feel a little wronged. Paul softened his tone and explained, "That's not what I meant. First off, Mom had already agreed to me coming to Lumberville. There was no need for lie
"Oh, you're back? What were you guys doing?" Lionel came out of the kitchen, still wearing his apron. He looked a little puzzled when he saw everyone gathered around Paul and Miranda. "Dad…" Miranda was about to go over with the shopping bags, but Paul had already taken them from her before she cou
Jenny's usage of the phrase, "real boyfriend", was quite interesting. As if Miranda even had a fake boyfriend before.Jack spoke up immediately. "Let me do the honors. This is Paul Jefferson, a professor at Bedford College's Faculty of Physics. He's the youngest leading figure in the country for the
A man stood at the entrance. He was tall and imposing, and he had a cold expression on his face. Miranda stood next to him and looked equally stoic. Jenny was taken aback. Shock flashed in her eyes as she asked, "You… Who are you?"Paul stepped forward confidently, still holding Miranda's hand. "I
