It took a while before Fiona spoke up, "Ashton, do you think I should have a romance, get married?" Ashton looked at her, "Just to find a father for the kids?"Fiona fell silent. Probably because that time with Darwin had hurt too much, it was as if she had lost the ability to fall in love.Plus, for these five years, she had been busy with studies, working, and raising children, hardly having a chance to dwell on personal issues."Idiot." Ashton clicked her tongue, "Even after becoming a mother, you are still you. Marriage is about your lifelong happiness, better to be alone than in bad company.""Is that why you never date?" Fiona asked with a smile."We're talking about you, why drag me into it?" Ashton rolled her eyes, "But, if the person were Dagmar, I would support that!"Dagmar...Fiona swirled her wine glass, her eyelids drooping.Years ago, she had entrusted Dagmar to look after Janna. Over the years, although Dagmar was no longer practicing medicine, he gradually took over

Chicago had put her heart into it. She had even adorned the envelope with beautiful little flowers.Upon opening the envelope, Darwin noticed the card. "Chicago is just a child, don't mind the doodles on the letter." the manager delivering the paintings hurriedly said."It's fine, it's adorable." Darwin replied as he tucked away the card. It wasn't written specifically for him, the contents were quite formal, seemingly prepared before the auction.After delivering the paintings, the manager quickly left. Darwin found an empty room and instructed the servants to place the paintings inside. After a moment of thought, he ultimately had someone carefully hang them up.He stood in front of the painting depicting God. For some reason, looking at the benevolent face of God, he thought he could vaguely see a hint of Fiona.People say that time is a medicine that can heal everything. Yet, Darwin was in pain.Why couldn't time heal the agony of losing Fiona for him? Instead, with each passing d

Charles pondered deeply but decided not to persuade his sister too forcefully. His sister wanted a phone, and he had enough money to buy it for her.But, if she got a phone, it was likely to contact that person, right?He decided in a second. Charles dismissed the idea of buying his sister a phone.If his suspicions were correct. Then he would never, in his life, want his sister meeting or contacting that person again.On the way to the banquet, Fiona was somewhat distracted.She hadn't expected Mrs. Solomon to still remember her so fondly after all these years.Fiona finally arrived at the private banquet. It was held at a vineyard wine estate. It was the golden wedding anniversary of Janna's friends.Stepping out of the car, Fiona immediately drew quite a bit of attention.The host couple approached her."You must be Chelsea." Mrs. White's face radiated such warmth and affection that she looked much younger than her years."Congratulations on your golden anniversary." Fiona present

Fiona lowered her eyes. With Sophia's arrival, she wouldn't need to fabricate excuses to turn down Vivian."It's been a while." Vivian greeted with a smile.Sophia cast a disdainful glance at Fiona. With Fiona's beauty, Sophia couldn't help thinking that it all looked surgical! From their first encounter, Sophia felt Fiona seemed eerily familiar, possibly resembling someone from an online photo she had seen.With that thought, she looped her arm through Vivian's."Ms. Vivian, I have a small favor to ask of you.""Oh?" Vivian looked toward Fiona.Fiona smiled with poised grace, "It's no problem, please go ahead with your conversation.""Alright, I will come to find you later." Vivian left with Sophia.Out of Fiona's earshot, Sophia asked, "Ms. Vivian, are you thinking of setting her up with Harold?""What's wrong?" Vivian didn't answer but instead asked a question of her own."You can choose anyone, but not this person." Sophia was visibly anxious. "You've been with Harold in the count

Upon Sophia's return, she was greeted by the sight of her grandmother proudly introducing Chelsea to everyone. The situation left her breathless with irritation.Then her gaze swept the room and finally rested on a butler carrying a tray of champagne.A quick exchange of glances between them, and he headed towards Fiona.Arms crossed, Sophia thought, "Trying to steal the spotlight in my own home? Let's see if I allow it!"Because of Mrs. White's announcement, Fiona was pushed to the front of the crowd.Surrounded by gazes filled with a mix of emotions, she felt particularly scorched by one.This unsettled Fiona, causing her mind to wander just as an accident occurred.A server bumped into her while carrying a tray.The crowd gasped in shock, even Mrs. White, speaking on stage, looked on in panic.It seemed inevitable that Fiona would be drenched in champagne when suddenly, a strong hand wrapped around her slender waist and yanked her back.Champagne glasses shattered on the floor, and
