Miranda couldn't believe Zach told her to contact Sam.Zach replied, "Well, Sam is the owner."She was left speechless. After everything, it had come back to someone she knew.Miranda sighed as she ended the call and reluctantly dialed Sam's number. She wasn't joking that day when she told him, "Yo
"Yes. You have a bad temper and a bad memory. What's wrong with that?" Zach said.Winter flung a pillow at him. "Just shut up!"He tilted his head and skillfully dodged it, which showed that he was well-practiced in this sort of exchange.She reached for another pillow, but he said, "Don't bother. I
"Hey, what are you staring at? Hand me the water," Winter said.Zach felt all the pleasantness shattered the moment she spoke. His lips twitched as he replied, "Can I make a suggestion?""Go ahead." She took a sip of ice water and instantly felt refreshed."Can you tone it down when you talk to me?
"I thought I'd be waiting forever, but this rascal surprised me by quickly getting everything sorted. This gift has finally come in handy," Phoebe said.As expected, the royal emerald bracelet was of an auction-level quality. It had to be worth at least seven figures, possibly even eight."No, Mrs.
To be precise, Phoebe and Maggie were watching Winter and Zach from upstairs.Phoebe said, "Look at them. They're so sweet."Maggie remarked, "I've never seen Mr. Zach this proactive with any girl before."Phoebe replied, "Winter isn't just any woman. Regardless of her background or upbringing, she
Miranda glanced at Paul's door and noticed it was still locked, just as it had been for the past few days. It suddenly struck her that she hadn't seen him in quite some time.They used to leave at the same time and often ran into each other, but lately, she hadn't seen him at all. She figured he was
Silas glanced at Paul. "You haven't been yourself lately. What's going on?""You've got it wrong," Paul replied, turning toward the drawing room. He carried a bag of clean clothes and intended to store them in the cabinet inside that room.As he pushed the door open, his gaze landed on the folding b
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.
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
