Chapter 91: The Little Apple Necklace

Juliet Wagner's pregnancy couldn't be kept a secret after all.Indeed, how could it be kept a secret?Sooner or later, Morgan Byron would find out.Jessie Watt, the little rookie, passed out after just two jugs of niangao wine.Fortunately, there were guest rooms at Tai Garden where they could stay. Juliet Wagner settled Jessie Watt in one, while Morgan Byron waited for her in the adjacent room.He was smoking on the balcony and immediately put out his cigarette when he heard Juliet Wagner's footsteps, calling out from a distance, "Don't come over yet, the smoke hasn't cleared."Juliet Wagner stopped at the balcony door. "It's not that bad, really.""Apparently," he turned to look at her in the darkness. "I need to quit smoking.""You never had much of a smoking habit to begin with." Morgan Byron's smoking habit seemed less severe than Juliet Wagner's.She actually had quite a few bad habits, including a recent smoking addiction and a period of heavy drinking, all of which sta

Chapter 92: Go Ahead and Gloat!

When Juliet Wagner arrived at Jessie Watt's room, she was still fast asleep, sprawled on the bed, looking carefree.The housekeeper told Juliet Wagner, "She slept well last night, but she woke up twice asking for water."Juliet Wagner sat down by the bed and nudged her. "Hey, if you can't hold your liquor, don't drink so much.""How was I supposed to know that such a delicious wine could get me drunk?""Which wine doesn't get you drunk?""You're right, the sweeter the wine, the more it gets you drunk." Jessie Watt rolled over and hugged Juliet Wagner's waist. "Come, sleep with me for a while.""A little lighter," Juliet Wagner patted her hand. "You're being too rough."Jessie Watt then remembered that Juliet Wagner was pregnant and quickly let go. "I forgot about your pregnancy. I deserve to die for this."Juliet Wagner couldn't help but laugh and cry. "Get up."Jessie Watt got out of bed and suddenly remembered something. "Did I say anything crazy last night?""What do you t

Chapter 93: A Call from California

The wedding came swiftly, as if all the busy preparations had passed in a blink of an eye.Juliet Wagner was getting married from her own house. According to the custom in Jiangzhou, brides usually get married from their parents' home, but Juliet Wagner refused. Her parents, with forced smiles, tried to persuade her to return home, but she ignored them.Since elementary school, her parents hadn't even paid for her tuition and miscellaneous fees. By the time she was in junior high, they had vanished without a trace, and no one knew where they went.Now, their fawning faces were only because she was marrying a wealthy man.No matter what they said, Juliet Wagner remained unmoved. She even set a condition: they were not allowed to go on stage as her family members during the wedding banquet.Her father was particularly unhappy: "I've already prepared my speech."Juliet Wagner coldly replied, "I can make sure you don't enter the wedding venue."Her parents had no choice but to give

Chapter 94: The Runaway Bride

After hanging up the phone, Juliet Wagner's mind went blank for a few seconds. Jessie Watt noticed her unusual expression and gently nudged her, "Juliet Wagner, what's wrong? Who called you?"Juliet Wagner seemed to wake from a dream and hurriedly dialed the airline's number again, "Could you please book me a ticket to California on the next available flight? Yes, first class is fine, the soonest one. My name is Juliet Wagner, and I'll send you my ID number right away.""Juliet Wagner," Jessie Watt grabbed her in surprise, "What's going on? Why are you flying to California?"Juliet Wagner was trembling all over as she gripped Jessie Watt's hand, "Phoebe Newman, Phoebe Newman met with Eden. Eden is alive, he's not dead!"Jessie Watt's mouth dropped open in shock, finally managing to say, "Juliet Wagner, no way! How is that possible?"Juliet Wagner showed her the photo. After staring at it for a while, Jessie Watt muttered, "It does look like him. How can it be so similar? It's almo

Chapter 95: Yesterday, I Got Married

Juliet Wagner wanted to avoid being seen, but it was too late; The Driver had already spotted her."Mr. Byron has already gone upstairs to fetch you, but what are you...?" The Driver looked at her in surprise."The Driver, I have an urgent matter. I don't have time to explain. I must go now." Juliet Wagner hastily said and started running, but after a few steps, she stopped."The Driver, can you take me to the airport?""Now?""Yes, right now, immediately.""But, but today is your wedding day with Mr. Byron. Where are you going?"Without further explanation, Juliet Wagner opened the car door and got in.Just as The Driver was starting the car, Juliet Wagner saw Morgan Byron appear at the entrance of the building.She was afraid that The Driver would see Morgan Byron and stop the car, but fortunately, he didn't notice. The car sped past Morgan Byron.Although the window was closed, making it impossible to see inside from outside, Juliet Wagner felt as if she and Morgan Byron h

Chapter 96: The Stranger

The girl had been in the kitchen for a long time without coming out, which made Juliet Wagner feel uneasy. Ignoring Tang Keren's attempts to stop her, she rushed into the kitchen. Upon entering, she found only a plump chef sitting there, engrossed in his phone, with no sign of the girl.There was a back door in the kitchen, and Juliet Wagner ran towards it. The back door led to an alleyway, and by the time she reached the end of the alley, she found herself on a bustling street, but the girl was nowhere to be seen.Standing there, Juliet Wagner felt both frustrated and excited. She was frustrated because she had almost gotten information about Eden, but the girl had escaped. Yet, she was also excited because she was certain that the person she was looking for was indeed Eden; otherwise, the girl wouldn't have run away at the sight of her.Tang Keren, breathless, caught up: "Juliet Wagner, where is she?""Go back and ask the owner for the girl's address," Juliet Wagner said."She w

Chapter 97: Hear Your Explanation

The boy was clearly startled by Juliet Wagner's embrace, instinctively trying to pull her arm away.His scent—it was so familiar to Juliet Wagner!No matter that he had a buzz cut, tanned skin, and a different look in his eyes, or even that he didn't recognize her!But the aura of Eden—she knew it all too well.He loved using mint-scented shampoo, washing his hair every day, and changing clothes daily. Many of his shirt collars were worn out from frequent washing, and he always smelled of a mix of mint and laundry detergent.Juliet Wagner used to tease Eden, saying he was like a giant, walking laundry pod.She hadn't smelled this scent for such a long time.She had never realized how good it smelled before.Tears instantly welled up in her eyes, streaming down her face and dripping onto his shoulder.Juliet Wagner's sudden action clearly frightened him, and he forgot to push her away.It was the girl who, upon hearing the commotion, came over and pulled Juliet Wagner away.J

Chapter 98: The Relationship Between Him and You

Juliet Wagner made up her mind in a split second about how to explain the situation.Being honest was the greatest respect she could show to Morgan Byron."Mr. Byron." She unconsciously changed her way of addressing him.Ever since she received Phoebe Newman's call, she had switched from calling him Morgan to Mr. Byron.It was like the distance between Jiangzhou and California.Morgan Byron looked down at her, the room unlit, with the twilight light seeping through the curtains, forming a straight line that seemed like a sharp sword piercing his back.She knew she deserved to die, but even if Morgan Byron strangled her for telling the truth, she still had to say it."Mr. Byron." She repeated, licking her dry, chapped lips. "I'm sorry, I've made everything so terrible.""I didn't come all this way to hear you apologize. I think the person who made you rush to California must be very important to you.""Very important, extremely important.""Like...""More important than my ow

Chapter 99: He Is Like a Sunken Ship

Not knowing whether they were hiding or had been concealed by Senior Mrs. Byron, Juliet Wagner found herself unable to look for them at the moment, stretched thin as she was.At this point, Phoebe Newman's gaze fell on her abdomen. "So, you got married and are now pregnant. You didn't even tell me beforehand; you just suddenly fainted, scaring me half to death."Juliet Wagner gave her an apologetic smile. "I'm sorry, I didn't think about it at the time.""I understand. When you heard news about Eden, nothing else mattered. But given your current situation, you really need to think carefully about what you're going to do next.""If you hear anything about Eden, please let me know right away.""I will.""Thank you, Phoebe. I've really relied on you these past few days.""We've known each other for so long; there's no need to be so formal. Get some rest, and I'll be on my way.""Phoebe," Juliet Wagner hesitated, not sure of Phoebe Newman's financial situation but also feeling that

Chapter 100: Your Moonlight in My Hands

Standing at the doorway, Juliet Wagner was first noticed by Mrs. Xu."Is this your new daughter-in-law back from somewhere?"Senior Mrs. Byron looked up, her face still beaming with a smile.She waved to Juliet Wagner, "Back already?""Mom, Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Hu, Senior Mrs. Byrong," Juliet Wagner greeted them one by one."Your memory is really good; you still remember our surnames?""Of course, she's young. Do you think she's like us, old and forgetful?" Senior Mrs. Byron patted Morton Norris beside her, "Don't just sit there like a lump of shit, go get a chair for your sister-in-law.""Why do I become a lump of shit when my sister-in-law comes back?" Morton Norris grinned, getting up from his seat and moving a chair over, "Sister-in-law, please have a seat here."Juliet Wagner thanked him and sat down next to Senior Mrs. Byron.Senior Mrs. Byron took her hand gently and asked warmly, "Tired?"Juliet Wagner shook her head, "Not tired.""That's good. Today, I won't let you help m
