**The MacArthur Residence**"Master, the doctor said she was probably just frightened and fainted temporarily." After seeing off the doctor, Uncle Zhang came back to report to Channing MacArthur. He raised his arm, wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and then let out a sigh of relief. If it hadn't been for Channing MacArthur's timely discovery, and if he hadn't slowed down to look for Gordon MacArthur, this woman might have lost her life today. The road was narrow and winding, and she had been lying in the middle of it. If the car had been going any faster, it would have run over her.Several hours had passed, but thinking about it still made him feel uneasy."Auntie... did it to save me." Gordon MacArthur, who hadn't spoken since returning, suddenly walked out of the room. His voice was choked with sobs, and his eyes were red and swollen, indicating that he had been crying for a long time. No matter how intelligent he was, he was still just a child, and he should be

After hanging up the phone, she looked at Sharon Keynes apologetically and said, "Xiao Xi might have a fever. I need to go back and check on him."Sharon Keynes saw the worry in her eyes, and there was a clear sense of disappointment in his. He stood up, gently tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear, and still with a soft tone, he said, "Go ahead then."After instructing Sharon Keynes to keep Gordon MacArthur's condition a secret, Charlotte Violet rushed back home.As he watched Charlotte Violet leave, Sharon Keynes, for the first time in his life, tasted the bitterness of unfulfilled joy. He realized that in this world, money wasn't everything. But, he wouldn't give up.Gordon MacArthur probably got scared last night. The family doctor arrived at the Ning residence just as Charlotte Violet did.After a thorough examination, the doctor said, "Don't worry too much. It's just from the shock. A bit of rest will be fine." Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.After this incident

Channing MacArthur had never been interested in women's conversations, so the commotion here didn't draw his attention. However, Gordon MacArthur was staring at Nicola Duncan, her little face showing obvious disdain—she was just pretending!"Master Ning, all the guests have arrived. They are asking if we can proceed to the venue," Liu Xu said as he entered and addressed Channing MacArthur.Channing MacArthur put down the book in his hand, stood up, and walked behind Nicola Duncan. Leaning over, he complimented her, "You look beautiful." His gentle praise, delivered in a magnetic voice, left the group of women mesmerized. Such a perfect man was rare in this world.Nicola Duncan clearly enjoyed the compliment, smiling sweetly. At that moment, the makeup artists finished their work and stepped aside. The person in charge respectfully said, "Master Ning, everything is ready."Unlike his previous gentleness, Channing MacArthur merely responded with a cold "Mm" and then took Nicola Dunca

With the last shred of his sanity, he turned around, intending to leave. He pulled at the bedroom door, only to find it locked from the inside... Did this rascal even know what he was doing? At that moment, the woman on the bed began to moan softly, and the sound reached Channing MacArthur's ears, turning into a form of torment. He closed his eyes, yanked the woman up forcefully, then lifted her by the waist, planning to give her a cold shower to bring her back to her senses. But, as it turned out, the bathroom door was also locked. Considering their current situation, Channing MacArthur closed his eyes, no longer able to stay calm. He wanted to break down the door but hesitated, glancing back at the dazed woman on the bed. If he were to smash the door now, with her in such a state, things might get complicated. Even if he believed nothing would happen, what about others? The hand he had raised finally fell. How could a child of such a young age understand these things? His eyes darken

In the same study as last time, the two of them sat facing each other across the sofa."Last night..." Shen Beiyi managed to get out a few words before she started to have trouble breathing. This man's presence was truly overwhelming. Despite having rehearsed what she would say countless times in her mind, she found herself becoming incoherent once she was in front of him.Taking a deep breath, she continued, "I can let it go."Channing MacArthur glanced at Shen Beiyi from the corner of his eye, a look of unreadable depth in his eyes, but he didn't respond. It was clear that she hadn't finished speaking."But, I may not be able to stay in the Ning household anymore," she said slowly, with a deep sense of reluctance in her eyes. She had nearly risked her life to keep this job, but after such an incident, she no longer had the courage to live under the same roof, even though neither of them had intended for it to happen. The reality of the situation was undeniable.Thinking about hi
