The studio team was abuzz with energy as if they'd all been injected with adrenaline. Only Laura remained clear-headed amidst the excitement."Is Miss Robbins the current flame?" she wondered.Curiosity had gotten the better of her earlier that day, leading her to do a quick internet search. The rumors linking Miss Robbins and Darwin had been persistent, yet Darwin had never publicly acknowledged any romantic involvement with her. Moreover, on the day of Darwin's car accident, he had called out for Chelsea as his 'wife'—a subtle but telling detail.Laura mused over the delicacy of the situation as she scrolled through her phone's photo gallery. She found a picture of Secretary Woods, who had tragically passed away in a plane crash, and couldn't help but notice the striking resemblance to Chelsea. Chelsea had claimed that Darwin was once her fiancé. To the public's knowledge, the only fiancée Darwin had ever acknowledged—apart from the one he had personally denied, Hathaw

The feeling of complete freedom was simply too comfortable.Breathing seemed even smoother than usual.Kenny had invested in a lot of real estate in Bay City.He picked out some of the best properties in terms of location and layout, and Charles took her to see them.Three of the properties hit all of Ashton's preferences perfectly: the neighborhood's ambiance, the geographical location, and the design.In the end, Ashton chose the one that was most convenient for Kenny's commute to work.After selecting the house, Kenny handed her a few forms to think over and fill out at her leisure.They were all about the interior design and functional requirements.Handing over the forms, Kenny said earnestly, "This will be our home for a long time to come. I want to make sure that Mrs. Walker feels completely satisfied and comfortable. It would make me very happy."Ashton briefly shared with Fiona the process of choosing their new home.Stirring the fros

The crowd processed Anniston's words, exchanging varied glances, until at last the loud-voiced woman shouted, "Well, we've come all this way, can't waste our time for nothing. Let's go!"She took the lead and marched out the door to find a sharply dressed young man holding a stack of checks."Please come this way for your checks, one per household, and each for the same amount," he directed."These are just peanuts," the woman grumbled, scrutinizing the check. "You're writing checks like we're beggars."But when the young man handed her the check, her eyes nearly popped out, "One hundred thousand?"The news of a hundred thousand dollars sent a ripple through the less affluent branches of the Solomon family, who now clamored to get their hands on the checks. The distribution complete, they each left with their own piece of unexpected fortune.The young man's meticulous hairstyle was now disheveled.He exhaled deeply, smoothed his hair back into place, and

Darwin's hand clearly trembled."Never again," he promised, "I could transfer everything—Solomons, Solomon—all my possessions into your name!"Fiona was taken aback. Those things were treasures in Darwin's eyes."Enough," Fiona lowered her eyelids, attempting to pry his grasp from her arm. "I really need to get going.""Wait a second."Before she could respond, Darwin's voice faded, and he leaned in to capture her lips in a kiss. In the quiet intimacy of the moment, they shared a lengthy kiss, after which Darwin wrapped his arms around her, a picture of contentment."Are you trying to strangle me?" Fiona swatted at his arm.He kissed her cheek once more. "You've forgiven me, haven't you?"After a brief silence, Fiona spoke up with gravity in her voice. "Darwin, I'm going to ask you this once, and if you dare lie to me, I will never forgive you for as long as I live.""Ask away," Darwin said earnestly. "I swear I won't lie to you!"He had alway

Fiona rose early the next morning, her routine dictated by the scheduled seminar. After getting ready and dressed, she descended the stairs to find Ashton already busy in the kitchen."Up with the birds, Mrs. Walker?" Fiona greeted her in passing, making a beeline for the elevator."Hold on a sec!" Ashton called out, dashing over with a bag in hand. "French toast, black coffee, and a berry smoothie for the road.""Thanks a million," Fiona said, blowing a kiss as she accepted the bag."Don't forget to eat!" Ashton reminded her just as she stepped into the elevator. "Knock 'em dead!""You betcha!" Fiona affirmed, and with the elevator doors closing, Ashton hummed a merry tune and returned to her kitchen activities.Cooking had never been Ashton's strong suit. She'd considered picking up culinary skills for Chris, but their taste in food was poles apart, and he was too much of a perfectionist. Cooking together was a rare occasion that usually ended up with him t
