"Mom, what's wrong?"Noelle's heart skipped a beat.Emmie softened her tone and continued, "I'm fine. I'm just about to head to the work site. Don't worry, I'm okay."Noelle breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "He ... hasn't been hard on you, has he?""Not at all, Elle." Emmie coughed again. "I'm about to leave. Get in touch later."Emmie hung up. The chilly weather from last night had given her a headache and a bit of a cough.As Emmie turned around, she found Michael staring at her intently. Emmie froze."Are you trying to become sick by taking a cold shower just so I can't touch you?"Michael drew near, his voice low and frigid. They were both dressed in pajamas.Emmie's slim ankles and calves were visible, while Michael's chest muscles were on display due to his pajama sleeves hanging carelessly. Emmie averted her gaze."You've already got Lia. Why bother chasing after me? If I'm not mistaken, Lia ought to be in Dragfort City as well."She's been with you for so many ye

Noelle could not believe Quentin had the nerve to accuse her of seducing him.Quentin's large hands firmly gripped Noelle's waist, the warmth of his palms seeping through the thin silk pajamas and onto her skin. His gaze lingered somewhere on her body. Noelle noticed his stare and quickly pulled up her pajamas to conceal her chest."Hadn't you had enough of Xyla?" she asked disgustingly.Quentin remained silent, frustrated by Noelle's constant mentioning of Xyla. With his hands still holding her waist, Quentin lifted Noelle and placed her on the bed. His towering figure loomed over her, his handsome eyes burning."I've never seen her naked. I only see her as a sister," Quentin declared. As Noelle lay beneath Quentin, her silky hair cascaded like a waterfall. The contours of her body were visible through her pajamas.Quentin's mind drifted back to when their bodies had been intertwined. A surge of desire coursed through him as he leaned in to kiss her. But Noelle quickly covere

Noelle and Lorraine met two years ago when Lorraine had a miscarriage. Noelle happened to pass by and took her to the hospital.Noelle offered to help Lorraine contact her family, but Lorraine said she had none. Noelle couldn't help but imagine a typical love story gone wrong—a woman pregnant, and a man abandoning her.Noelle felt terrible for Lorraine and dropped by the hospital daily to see her. She would occasionally bring supplements with her and give them to Lorraine.Soon, they became friends. Lorraine opened the bar with the money she received as compensation from the man after being discharged from the hospital. It was at a prime location worth millions of dollars.In Dragfort City, Noelle failed to locate the man with a history with Lorraine. The man was rich, handsome, in his thirties, and a heartbreaker. Now that Lorraine was single, it was inevitable that she would have physical needs.Noelle thought she had acted rashly and embarrassed herself when she almost barged i

Noelle took a moment to collect herself, dried her tears, and dove headfirst into the cleaning.Emmie was switched to a private room upstairs due to Quentin's connections. Otherwise, Emmie would have had to wait three days for a private room. Emmie sent her two students to rest and then turned to Quentin."Quentin, you should go home now. Elle is here with me. And don't tell your mother about my injury."Emmie did not want Janet to worry. She owed her dear buddy a great deal after all these years.Quentin smiled faintly and insisted, "I'll stay with you together with Elle." Emmie countered, "You shouldn't. You've already stayed up for hours. It's almost dawn." Quentin shrugged and took a seat on a chair. "Mom, we're all family here. No need to treat me differently. I'm your son-in-law. You can boss me around like a son." Noelle rolled her eyes at his remark. Everyone knew Quentin wished he were Xyla's family instead. But what did Emmie mean when she said Quentin had stayed up

Quentin shielded the laptop's camera with a tissue. On the other end, people exchanged glances.Wasn't the one leaning on Quentin's shoulder Noelle? They seemed close, contrary to rumors. Moreover, Quentin's glance at Noelle was unmistakably affectionate! Noelle slept deeply until the car reached the Windsor Villa. Startled, she looked at Quentin. He opened the door and stepped out of the car. "This place is spacious. It's perfect for resting and for our mothers to watch over things." Noelle considered his words and agreed. She opened the door and requested, "Come with me this afternoon to handle the paperwork." Quentin paused and glared at Noelle."Are you really in such a hurry?" he asked. Noelle nodded eagerly and replied, "Yes, I am!"Quentin was speechless. He entered the house without saying a word. Noelle followed him and continued, "Don't you wish you could tie the knot with Ms. Cadwell right now? After all, tending to your planted seeds at the hospital is not ve
