The female colleague also had a child at home, so she was very sensitive to children’s emotions.She could feel it.This child had an inferiority complex, and he should not be so sensitive at this age.Another male colleague echoed.“Yeah, he slept with me in the dormitory last night. I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to coax him or that he would cry, so I was prepared to stay up all night. But the child knew how to wash his face, hands, and feet all by himself and even went to sleep alone. He didn’t bother me at all. The next day, he was already awake when I woke up. He’s such a sensible kid. I think I’d wake up laughing in my dreams if I had such an obedient kid…”“Hahaha! You need to get a girlfriend first!”Everyone was talking and laughing, so they did not notice that Eric had walked in with a dark face.Eric frowned, and his eyes were deep and cold.Mitchell coughed from behind.The crowd suddenly stopped laughing.Eric pushed the door into the conference room.The
Eric glanced at Ingrid.Ingrid sat there and curled up into a ball.Her face was pale, but she looked at Eric with criticism and hatred in her eyes.At that moment, Eric understood everything.He stared at Tyler with cold eyes, and his tone was intimidating.“She’s nothing more than a person you can use, right? But you can’t control the Ferguson family.”Tyler suddenly grinned viciously and harshly.“Eric, what do you mean by that? My sister gave birth to your son. Why can’t your sister give birth to my son?”Eric looked at him calmly. “She can’t. You can take that child back if you want to.”Hearing that, Tyler was stunned.His icy eyes probed Eric’s face. He chuckled lightly.“You’re really cruel. You don’t even like your biological son. That child only saw Angie a few times and was sent to school and the orphanage. You know what schools in Southeast Asia are like. He was bullied and abused many times. When Angie found out that he was mute after his third birthday, she too
No one knew if that was sarcasm or a mere description of Ingrid.After Eric finished speaking, he gave Ingrid a meaningful look.Then he turned around to leave.Ingrid did not want to let him go like that. She cried and took his arm.“Give him back to me, Brother! I really like him. Why can’t you wish for a good life for me? You’ve always looked down on me since we were young. You bullied me because of an outsider, and now, you even want to hurt the person I like…”Eric shook her off irritably, grabbed her collar, lifted her up, and looked at her fiercely.“The person you like? Are you playing dumb, or are you just cheap? They cut up Dad, killed Grandpa, and captured you and Mom to threaten me, yet you’re still in love with the enemy?!”Eric gritted his teeth. His face was cold and stern.“I’ll tell you the truth. If Mom wasn’t in their hands, did you really think that I’ll care for your life?”Eric suddenly threw Ingrid on the ground like she was a piece of garbage.Ingrid’s
Somehow, Eric felt that something was wrong when he heard Angie’s words.It seemed that something was about to break out of the ground.He did not feel any pleasure from Tyler being arrested.What exactly was it?Eric calmed himself down.He did not speak.Angie did not mind either.Her voice was light, with a bit of viciousness and tenderness.“I can let anyone die for you, but why can’t you see how much I love you?”Eric said, “Are you sick in the head?”Angie clicked her tongue.“It’s different now. Tyler is no longer in this world, but I will always be here.”She laughed and hung up the phone.Eric looked at the blacked-out screen with a stiff and cold face.He had a bad feeling about this.Did Clayton make a deal with Angie when he released her?Clayton wanted to kill Angie when he was on the boat.How could Clayton let her go?What made Clayton let Angie go?If Eric knew the answer, then all his problems would be solved.Eric threw his phone angrily. His face
The floor carpet was very thick, and all sharp edges were covered with a soft protective layer, so there was no need to worry that Chatty would fall and hurt herself.Chatty was also very tenacious.She followed Daddy and Mommy without crying or making a fuss, and climbed down the stairs steadily, step by step.Floyd glared at the couple before him, then ran over to carry Chatty.“Our little Chatty is so amazing! She can climb stairs at such a young age. What a genius!”Clayton paused and thought that it sounded familiar.Julie ran inside and hugged Nicole happily.“You’re finally back! You went on vacation so suddenly that I wasn’t even aware!”It was indeed sudden.Nicole smiled, but she could not explain certain things.“Well, I wanted to give you and Third Brother some personal space.”Kai sat on the sofa in the living room and looked up nonchalantly.“I think you wanted some personal space and used us as an excuse! I feel exploited!”Julie clicked her tongue, and Kai
Clayton, who was walking down the stairs, heard this and said, “Big Brother, Chatty can’t even walk steadily now. She’ll be sent home as soon as we bring her there. Let’s just wait for two more years.”Grant raised his eyebrows. “Alright, Dad will follow Levi over for a few days so that Levi can get used to the place before Dad leaves.”Clayton nodded. “Dad is our family’s backbone.”He sighed and thought, ‘Poor Chatty!’Nicole walked over quickly.“What did Dad say to you just now in the study?”Clayton looked at her with a smile. His eyes were gentle and reflected the light.“Take a guess!”Nicole could not guess what he was thinking because Clayton looked so nonchalant.She pursed her lips and pinched his waist gently.Clayton pursed his lips, lowered his head, and whispered in her ear, “Are you trying to murder your husband?”His voice pierced through Nicole’s heart like an electric current.She stretched out her arms and hugged his waist with a smile.“Do I even need
Chatty did not cry. She struggled to get up from the ground and wanted to drag the beautiful little boy up.However, the little boy’s hands were wounded. Even so, the boy remained silent.When Levi ran over, he patted the dirt from Chatty’s skirt before he looked at the boy opposite them.“I’m sorry, my little sister didn’t bump into you on purpose. She’s young and doesn’t know anything. Are you okay?”Levi helped the little boy across from him.The little boy looked very beautiful like he had a mixed heritage. He was fair, gentle, and very introverted.He looked at Levi and then at Chatty, then pursed his lips.That soft little girl looked so beautiful and delicate, like a cute little princess.The boy could not help but take a few more glances at Chatty.He nodded his head.Then, he casually rubbed his wounded hand on his body and turned to leave.Levi took the boy’s hand. “You’re injured. Shall I ask my daddy to help you?”The little boy shook his head and withdrew his
Grant and Aida were not worried and sat there without moving.Levi walked over obediently and told them about his new friend.“Mommy, he’s a big brother and our new friend. He didn’t get angry even when Chatty bumped into him…”Grant listened casually while watching Clayton hold his daughter.Just when they were about to leave prematurely, the principal interjected.“Oh, that student always likes to be alone. He can’t speak, and he’s Mr. Eric Ferguson’s son.”Grant’s eyes narrowed slightly. His face instantly turned cold.Aida frowned.“Eric’s son? Why is he here?”Did Eric dump his newly recognized son at boarding school?The principal smiled.“Yes, that child is introverted, obedient, and quite smart. It’s just that Mr. Ferguson never showed up. All formalities were done by someone else. They followed the school’s regulations and allowed the boy to go home once a week.”Nicole stood there and turned her head slightly.She frowned.The little boy who had been staring at
