LOGINJohn was in a foul mood, while Dave, on the contrary, looked delighted. His narrow eyes curved into a perfect, mocking smile.He looked down at Reece, whose eyes were still slightly red and puffy from crying. "Didn't you just call me Papa?"Although Reece didn't quite understand the meaning behind Dave’s words, he nodded earnestly. He even reached out his small hand and tugged at the hem of Dave’s shirt. "Yes! You are my Papa!"A wicked yet amused smile played on Dave’s lips as he glanced provocatively at John.To be honest, this was the first time he actually realized how cute this little kid was. For the first time, he reached out and gently patted Reece’s head. His voice even softened a little, though his overall demeanor remained cold and distant."Do you want to meet your grandparents?"Reece’s eyes lit up instantly, shining with excitement. "Yes!"He was overjoyed by Dave’s sudden kindness. When Dave took his small hand and even rubbed his palm affectionately, Reece didn’t notic
The space was narrow and confined. As the man released his pent-up rage, his breath came in heavy gusts. His grip tightened, cutting off Elaine’s airflow completely, turning her face a dark, bruised purple.Did he really want to kill her?No. Actually, three years ago, Dave had wanted to strangle himself to death out of frustration.Tears welled up in Elaine’s eyes.Meanwhile, Reece, still holding the melting ice cream John had bought him, walked back to the main area of the hospital but couldn’t find his parents anywhere."Where did Mommy and Daddy go?" He frowned, looking upset and anxious.John thought for a moment. Realizing Dave and Elaine must want some privacy to talk, he led Reece toward the stairwell area. They walked down a path lined with thick greenery.Suddenly, the ice cream in Reece’s hand melted completely and slipped, splattering onto the floor.John was startled and looked down, but in that split second, Reece pulled his hand free. The boy ran straight toward where D
Reece’s eyes lit up instantly, but he looked at Elaine doubtfully. He knew very well how strict his mother was about his diet. Even in the middle of summer, Elaine rarely allowed him to eat cold food for fear it would upset his stomach. Seeing the boy’s pleading, hopeful eyes, Elaine relented and whispered, "You can only have one scoop!" "Yay!" Reece cheered happily. John then lifted the boy in his arms and walked out of the hospital building. Dave’s face grew darker and gloomier by the second as he watched the three of them interact right in front of his eyes. Elaine felt awkward and didn't know how to act under his intense glare. That child is getting bolder every day, Dave thought furiously. Calling him 'Papa John'... maybe in private, he just calls him 'Papa'! The more he thought about it, the more he felt like he was being made a fool of. A burning sensation rose in his chest. His expression turned icy cold as he stared into Elaine’s eyes, his gaze so sharp it felt like it c
Dave reached out to gently pry Reece’s hand away. Despite his anger, he knew the child was just a kid, and his body was already covered in injuries. So, he didn’t use much force. After freeing his arm, Dave took a step back, his gaze shifting back to Elaine."How should I punish Director Lu?" he asked in a low voice.Elaine lifted her face slightly, avoiding direct eye contact with him. Dissatisfaction was clearly written all over her expression. She could feel John’s intention to step forward and say something, but he had already helped her so many times. How could she let him get punished because of her?"President Bo, I’ve already said I am willing to accept any punishment in his place!" she interrupted firmly."Fine! Very good!" Dave smiled sarcastically, his brows furrowing deeply.She, who bears the title of Mrs. Bo, dares to protect another man right in front of my face! Elaine, you are truly something else!His dissatisfaction grew, and his voice turned cold and heavy, like fr
"What a shameless woman! She has the audacity to say our relationship is fine for others to see. Doesn’t she care about the situation? There are so many people walking by in this hospital!"On the face of Elaine, who was publicly known as Mrs. Bo, news had recently spread that Dave was abusing his wife. The entire world was furious with him, yet people felt immense sympathy for her. But Elaine couldn't be bothered to put on her usual act anymore.Bastard! This woman really knows how to push his buttons! Dave seethed inwardly. He felt stupid for worrying about her earlier. What was he thinking? She was Mrs. Bo, surrounded by guards and protection. What could possibly go wrong with her?The man turned around, ready to walk away. He had broad shoulders and a slender waist, his long legs clad in fitted trousers. He took two or three steps down the stairs, but suddenly halted. His hand gripped the railing tightly, and he slammed his fist hard against the banister.This isn't right! Why sho
That woman—wasn’t she always so capable and tough? Now that news like this had appeared in the newspapers, she was hiding away. Dave was furious. Otherwise, why would he be wasting his time worrying about whether she was dead or alive? Why would he even care what happened to her?“Get out!” Dave looked up at Elsa, who was standing with her head bowed and not saying a word. He spoke that single word with such coldness that it made Elsa shiver. The room fell silent, and Dave tapped his fingers twice against the table.He had to admit that this time, Tina had prepared everything very carefully. The shares of the Bo Group had plummeted in a very short time, and the stock price had fallen to nearly 120 billion yuan—a sum that was more than enough for an ordinary person to live comfortably for a lifetime. And that woman Elaine had simply vanished without a trace, not even putting up any kind of resistance.He took a deep breath. Suddenly, he remembered the incident on Saturday when Elaine h
If Olivia had a normal brain, how could she have asked him to do something as absurd as stealing Dave’s underwear? After driving some distance away from Bay Toon, William thought about it more and more, and the whole thing felt stranger and stranger. He pulled over to the side of the road, took out
Men were as fickle as unpredictable weather. Even though he had been with Cindy for days, he hadn’t truly thought about her for even a second—how dare Cindy speak so arrogantly? Elaine was too lazy to argue with her, but having spent so long in a family like the Bo’s, she had seen all kinds of peop
“Ah--” Cindy cried out.“Elaine, how dare you rip my dress open! I swear I’ll never let this go, not as long as I live!”As Cindy’s dress fell open, Dave instinctively averted his gaze, refusing to look at her.By now, things had escalated to the point where there seemed to be no way to fix things.
"Mrs. Bo, what do you think about Mr. Bo and Cindy staying together at Bay Toon yesterday?" "Mrs. Bo, today Miss Tang brought your husband to the opening ceremony in what capacity?" “As everyone knows, you are Mr. Bo’s wife but your relationship has always been strained. Does Cindy’s presence ind
