Chapter 1013
Talia walked out of the hallway and saw light ahead.Tears streamed down her face as she gazed at the morning sun through the window. She smiled bitterly.No one won in this tragedy!…Two days later, Anderson had recovered.At nightfall, he drove alone to a secluded graveyard. It didn't take him long to find Ayanna's grave. On the white tombstone, black letters were engraved, "Grave of Ayanna Francis, mother of Daphne."Daphne. So, that was the name of their baby.Where was Ada?He was driven to madness. He lifted the stone slab and retrieved the black urn. The blooming rose in the night was turned into a cold little urn now. It lay silently in his arms.However, she would never speak again."I love you, Mr. Anderson."He didn't know the extent of his obsession. All he knew was that he wanted to make amends, to compensate. He couldn't bear to leave her alone in the cold cemetery. He wanted to bring her back to the home she shared with him.He turned on the heat in the ca

Huh?Renata looked at Gwynn and said, "It seems that Anderson is here." She held her child close, looking very mournful. Gwynn pondered for a moment and said, "If you don't want to see him, I can go and speak on your behalf." However, Renata replied, "I can't avoid him forever. Since he already knows the child is with me, he'll likely come often if we don't meet now. It's better to just meet him today." She called a servant and instructed her to bring Anderson to the parlor. After the servant left to carry out the task, she changed into a new outfit. She also put Daphne in new clothes. It was the baby’s first time meeting her irresponsible father, after all. She said to Gwynn, "You can wait for me somewhere else! I know you don't want to see him."Gwynn just smiled faintly.Anderson sat in his car in the courtyard on the ground floor.A servant approached him, saying, "Our mistress requests your presence in the small foyer on the second floor. Please come this way, Mr.
Chapter 1015
On New Year's Eve, the Sanders Villa was decorated with lanterns and festoons in preparation for the upcoming celebrations. The house was bustling with activity, especially with several kids around. In the late afternoon, Noah returned home early from the company's year-end banquet, having had a few drinks and hoping to take a nap.However, when he pushed open the bedroom door, he saw Gwynn sitting on the sofa, nursing Ocelotte. The room was warm, and Meng Yan was dressed lightly, her skin glowing. The sight of it sobered him up from his drowsiness instantly.He stared at the scene for a long moment before slowly closing the door and walking over to sit beside his wife. He reached out, gently stroking Ocelotte’s head, and asked, "How many times does this little guy eat in a day?" Their six-month-old son was chubby and healthy.The fact that he was watching her breastfeed Ocelotte made her feel a bit embarrassed. She whispered, "You’ve had some drinks, go lie down on the bed fo

Noah didn't let Gwynn speak further. After a rough sex, he leaned against her sweaty neck, his voice hoarse. "Try calling him in such an intimate manner again! I'll make sure you can't get out of bed."She panted softly, her arms wrapped around his lean waist. Her face was close to his too. She whispered tenderly, "You're already over forty years old, Noah. You should be tempering yourself, instead of acting like a young man in his twenties."He moved his face, brushed against her nose, and gave her a gentle nip. "I'll still make you moan and scream out of pleasure even if I’m in my seventies.""Is that so?"…After exchanging a few sweet words, Gwynn’s mind was still on important matters. So, she pushed Noah and got up. She smoothed her slightly tousled black hair and said to him, "Go ahead and take a nap for a while. I'll go see what the secretary wants and come back to your side later!"He took the opportunity to make a request, "Let's have another round before the New

Gwynn's heart felt heavy.On the second day of the New Year, she personally went to Renata's place. Gwynn needed to hand over some things to her and to see Daphne. Gwynn sat in the back seat of the car. After half an hour, she still hadn't reached Renata's residence. She asked the driver, "Why are we taking a detour?"The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and smiled faintly, "There's road construction up ahead by the municipal authorities, so we have to take a long detour! "Although it's early spring, the view at the foot of Ituming Hillside is nice. If you look outside, Ms. Gwynn, you can see a grove of winter jasmine."Ituming Hillside...Gwynn was taken aback.Anderson had chosen to become a priest at Ituming Hillside.She lowered the car window, and a gust of cold wind blew in. However, she didn't feel cold. Looking into the distance, she indeed saw a grove of vibrant winter jasmines. It seemed as though a clear and fresh scent lingered at the tip of her nose.As

Renata was very considerate. She knew it was a tough job to run errands during the New Year. So, she gave the servant a gift that was worth five thousand dollars. The servant felt grateful and didn't complain about anything. He flew to Hucksburgh early on the third day of the New Year. As soon as the plane landed, he went straight to the Faulkner Villa without a moment's rest.Charles was an important figure. He spent the entire New Year out visiting and paying respects, busy with various matters. By the time he returned home, it was already half past nine at night.As Charles got out of the car, a servant approached and said quietly, "Ms. Renata sent someone here. He arrived around noon, holding an invitation."It seems to be something important. He waited here for nine hours."Charles, with his dignified demeanor, turned slightly and smiled, "What made her think of me? Didn't she..."He didn't finish the latter half of the sentence. He felt annoyed by Renata and didn't

Renata used to be a prostitute.She knew what to say to get what she wanted.She might've divorced Charles. However, she claimed that Daphne was her and Charles's baby when she spoke publicly about the little girl's background.Anyone who knows Charles knows that Renata was seeking a second husband for herself and her child to secure a reliable future. Once Renata set the date for the party, she began to get busy. She went on a diet for half a month, making her already slim figure even more exquisite. She also got her hair permed, with long black curls cascading down her waist. She was incredibly charming.On the day of the party, she danced gracefully in long sleeves and captivated a lot of men. Countless men put their moves on her!After the party, Renata selected the two most promising men among those who had shown her attention tonight. She was preparing to go on one or two dates with them to see how things would develop. Renata had prepared herself with two options.If

Charles turned around and froze as well.The ex-married couple met each other unexpectedly, each with their own new companions. Charles's gaze fell on Renata, then shifted to Nathaniel. He looked at the man condescendingly while he scrutinized him. Needless to say, he was displeased.Standing next to him was a famous celebrity.She was in her early thirties. It was the age when ladies needed tender care. Women are naturally sensitive and sharp. She immediately noticed the change in the mood. Her delicate hand gently rested on Charles's shoulder as she asked in an extremely gentle voice, "Did you run into someone you know, Charles?"What was with that tone?Renata chuckled coldly at the apparent intimacy. She linked arms with Nathaniel and smiled serenely. She wanted to see how Charles would explain this to his sweetheart.Charles was accustomed to such situations, and easily defused it, "She's my ex-wife. Her name's Renata Gilmore." Then, he introduced his companion to Re
