Mrs. Quimbey muttered, “This is too hasty, isn’t it? Yvette is still young.”Fiona was determined and did not leave any room for discussion.“No worries, she’ll mature soon enough. I treat her like she’s my daughter. We’ll get their marriage license in two days. I’ll show them the house this afternoon, I’ll buy them a new house, so you can’t take this opportunity from me!”Fiona was very satisfied. She was elated to get a daughter-in-law that was to her liking.“When the child is born, I’ll personally raise the child!”......The two people in the bathroom still did not know what was going on.Coincidentally, the water stopped gushing out from the faucet, so their position seemed pointless now.Yvette slowly tilted her head to look at Lance.She said, “What should we do?”It seemed like she should not have asked Lance to stay, then this scene could have been avoided.Lance pursed his lips and looked flustered.It was just a loose faucet.How did he unscrew the pipe?Was i
Since the matter was urgent, Lance thought it was better to get dressed first.Yvette got dressed and came out. Her face was flushed red, and she dared not look at the people in front of her.She had never encountered such a speechless moment in her life.Moreover, the people in front of her were her elders.Fiona and Mrs. Quimbey were in the kitchen preparing breakfast enthusiastically.They already looked like a family.Mrs. Quimbey was not good at cooking, so she was just helping Fiona out. From time to time, she would see the movement in the bedroom.The two children still did not come out.The moment Yvette came out, she attracted their attention.Fiona’s attitude immediately took a 180-degree turn.“Yvette, you must be tired! Here, have some oatmeal. I haven’t cooked in a long time, but it should be edible.”Yvette was a little overwhelmed by this enthusiasm.Could it be that Lance did not make it clear to them?“Auntie, I…”“You don’t need to say anything. It’s nor
Going to the bathroom was just an excuse for Yvette to leave.Faced with Fiona’s sincere concern, Yvette curled her lips and said, “I’m fine. I just caught a little cold in the morning.”Lance, who was next to Fiona, looked a little helpless. He really did not expect things to develop to this point.He thought that Yvette had sneaked away since she was not a submissive person, but why did she come back?Fiona took their number and urged them.“Hurry, it’s our turn!”Lance and Yvette were pushed to the front.The staff did not even look up, nor did they ask them if their marriage was voluntary and issued the certificate.Everything went incredibly smoothly.The two of them looked at each other in disbelief when they got their marriage license.They were legally married just like that.Fiona was so happy that she could not hide her smile. She held Mrs. Quimbey’s hand and said, “The wedding is scheduled for next month! Don't worry, it’ll be very grand! I won’t let Yvette suffer
Mrs. Quimbey’s words were like a hammer that hit Yvette’s chest heavily.The pain was suffocating.Indeed.Even if Yvette did not want to believe it before, she fully expected this now.Sean who was in love with her would not say the kind of hurtful words last night, but after their passion faded, he would.If the Moore family was involved in Mrs. Quimbey’s company, then Yvette would probably not get anything.Sean could step on his ex-wife to climb up the social ladder, so he could also do the same to Yvette.Love was just a momentary flutter of emotions. After the flutter passed, what else could she expect?Yvette suddenly felt cold all over.She was trembling and numb.In the past, Yvette treated her mother like she was an enemy because her mother was a workaholic and looked down on all of Yvette’s hobbies.However, the path she chose for Yvette seemed to be the best one to take.“You don’t have to worry about the matter between you and Sean being brought up as criticism
Keith rubbed his hands. He really did not want to meet Nicole here.However, he was bound to meet the person that he did not want to see.Nicole and Clayton’s interaction revealed an intimacy that could not be hidden.The general public was shocked to see it, let alone Eric.This was like a knife to his heart.Eric sat there, immersed in the darkness. His breathing was tense as he desperately tried to stifle his emotions.Keith sensed Eric’s mood and reminded him in a whisper, “Let’s go to the other side for a drink?”The private section of this club had a restaurant, lounge, and bar.It was impossible for Eric to leave because of his pride.Thus, it was enough to change their seat to somewhere that they could not see Nicole and Clayton so that they would not feel so bothered.Before they could change their seats, Nicole and Clayton stood up and were ready to leave.Keith was relieved.As soon as they left, Eric’s stern face could no longer be concealed. He looked extremely
Early morning.Eric woke up. His head was dizzy and heavy, so much so that he could not lift it up.It was rare how drunk he was last night. He did not drink much, but that kind of drunkenness surged.It was really shocking that he could not hang on even with his alcohol tolerance.The next second, a tan arm climbed up and pulled his arm. A tired and hoarse voice with a bit of post-sex coquettishness rang out. “Eric, why don’t you sleep a little longer?”Eric’s face instantly changed.His cold eyes looked to the side.The woman was lying there with disheveled clothes. Her eyes were closed, and the makeup on her side profile still looked like a certain someone in his heart.However, now that he was awake, Eric knew that it was not Nicole. This woman was the arms dealer, Angie.Needless to say, Eric knew what happened with the way she looked at this moment.Without any mercy or hesitation, Eric reached out and clasped her neck with his slender fingers. His voice was hoarse to a
Angie was used to seeing wars and people getting killed. When she was abroad, it was not uncommon to encounter terrorists, so she was not afraid of Eric’s threat.She just touched his pet peeve, so he was merely throwing a little tantrum.Angie could understand.When she came to her senses, she reached out and yanked Eric’s collar in her direction.Her face was also very defiant.She said in a hoarse and quiet voice, “Eric, I’m not joking with you. Do you want to talk to him on the phone?”Looking at Eric’s cold face, Angie reached out and took her phone from the side.She then dialed a number. An unfamiliar male voice spoke.“Miss, what’s the order?”“Is he still alive?”“Yes.”Angie looked at Eric and hooked her lips. “Let him answer the call.”In the next second, a trembling, fearful voice came from the phone.“Help! Eric, it’s me, Dad. Help me! I’m Charles Ferguson! No matter how much money they want, don’t bargain with them. Hurry up and let me out! I’m sick again, an
Just when everyone was at a standstill, another person came out from the room where Eric came out from in the next second.It was a woman.A woman who looked like Nicole.Her eyes looked a little lazy from a hangover. This woman that came out of Eric’s room gave off an unspeakably ambiguous atmosphere.These reporters suddenly understood this mysterious person’s big reveal.Was there anything more exciting than this scene?Eric Ferguson has another new love!Was it true love, or a substitute?This discussion would definitely set off huge waves on the internet!The woman leaned against the door and was not surprised by the scene in front of her. She looked very satisfied.She looked at Eric and said in an intimate tone, “Eric, why are you so fierce? They’re just doing their job…”Angie looked at the damaged equipment on the ground and smiled. “Don’t worry, I’ll pay for the damaged items.”Everyone looked at her in shock. They were shocked by her appearance, but upon closer l
