On a regular wedding day, normal couples would enter a wedding chamber. However, James Marshall and his bride entered a coffin in their wedding attire. There was very little space in the coffin so they laid very close to each other. Ever since then, Young Master Marshall got used to having a 'little pet' in his arm.Pet being a pet, it would be a shame to not pamper and shower it with love. Therefore, Young Master Marshall decided to demonstrate this theory to the best of his ability. He defended and allowed his wife to do whatever she wanted; he replaced her parents without hesitation when she said her parents did not love and appreciate her; he trampled and warned them that his wife was their boss when her siblings bullied her.His wife was always not home so Young Master Marshall demanded jealously, "My lovely wife has beautiful skin and is a natural beauty, keep an eye on her." "Young Master, are you blind? She is flat chested..." "You know nothing!"

It’s bitter.”“It’s to maintain my health,” James answered calmly, then looked at Sarah. “Bitter.”Sarah slapped his hand away. “No candy for you.”His lie may work on Xander, but it would not work on her.She knew of his sickness better than anyone else.To the extent that she was able to discern the root of the sickness.James sighed, then shifted his gaze on the packs of candies on the table. “It’s been many years since I’ve eaten candy.”“I’ve not eaten candy for a long time too. Young Aunt, you’ve just eaten. Can I have one too?” Xander joined in.Sarah suddenly felt teary.She was sad for the young one, and the older one too.‘He had not eaten candy for many years?’‘That’s right, he wouldn’t taste anything after eating them anyway.’Too much sweet things were not good for health. Why would he eat them?Thinking of that, she unwrapped two candies. One for Xand
Nanny Jarvis could never imagine that someone in this world was able to threaten James Marshall.However, Sarah managed to do it.Furthermore, the threatened James Marshall was just as obedient as Xander.James really finished all the food in front of him.The breakfast was all eaten clean.James got up to pack for work but was stopped by Sarah. “James, is it okay if you leave a little later today?”“Hm?”“You can go in another half an hour.”James looked at the time, then nodded. “Sure.” With Sarah here, he did not want to leave anyway.If there were no work to be settled, he would not even bother going to the office.However, he had been unconscious for too long previously, and the Marshall Group was running in chaos for quite some time. The company had just only been set back on the right track. If he relaxed during this time, it would just revert to chaos.That was why he was unable to skip work.“Oh, didn’t you plan to bring Xander to check out the kindergarten today?”“I checked
That was too much.Way too much.“Is breakfast ready?”“Yes. I’ll go get Xander.” Sarah was immediately reminded of her original intention. She was supposed to get Xander after waking James.With that, she turned and left.Just as she took one step forward, she recalled James’ sudden whimsical delinquency. “James, when will you ever change?”“Never.” James recalled the courting handbook he read last night, feeling sure of himself. He must kiss her every so often so that she would be habitualized with him. That way she would not be able to tolerate other guys kissing her.In the end, she would only be able to marry him.Turning this into a habit was the best tactic he had at his disposal to subdue her.“You…” Sarah was aggravated.Unfortunately, the man lying lazily in bed was nonchalantly looking at her while resting his head on his arms.She suddenly detected an abnormal scent.It was commonly said that guys were more easily turned on in the morning.She had better take her leave.“Ja
Nanny Jarvis stole a glance at the medicine bag Sarah held in her hands. “Are these Chinese medicines for Young Master Marshall? Is Young Master Marshall sick?”“Pfft.” Sarah burst into laughter.‘James is sick.’ That sentence sounded funny to her.However, that statement was true, James was indeed sick.Nevertheless, James’ sickness was unidentifiable by an average person.If one was just looking at his person, she would not be able to diagnose it as well.If not for her realizing that he never seemed to enjoy anything he ate, she would never have found out that he was sick.Her laugh baffled Nanny Jarvis. “Ms. York, did I say something wrong?”“N-n-no. Young Master Marshall is indeed sick. You’re right.” Having said that, Sarah placed the medicine bag into the double door fridge and exited the kitchen.With Nanny Jarvis around, she had better go study instead.She would fight for every second she could to study. Her aim was to get into the medical department of T University. Nanny J
James considered ordering John to stop preparing the medicine and ignore the request, but upon seeing Sarah, he could not bear himself to do so.He closed his eyes and went to sleep in the gentle darkness of the night.Morning came.The doorbell started ringing.Sarah bolted up immediately.She turned around to look at the window and noticed it was bright outside.John was too slow.According to her calculations, if he cooked multiple pots at the same time, he should have arrived just as dawn breaks.She jumped off the bed and rushed to the door, ignoring the curve at the corner of the bed.Upon entering the living room and seeing the books she used for revision last night, she suddenly realized that she woke up at the wrong location.She had fallen asleep while reading her books.Therefore, at that moment, she should be on the couch.She turned around and looked at James’ room. The door was closed. He should still be sleeping.‘Mm, he’s drunk. It’s normal for him to still be asleep.’
Sarah could tell his reluctance from his voice, but she did not call him out. Instead, she merely said, “If this patient is cured, you’ll get a raise.”Her words were true. As long as James’ condition was cured, he might just give everyone in the Marshall Group a raise out of good mood.Furthermore, that medicine would be personally prepared and watched over by John before delivering it over. John would be a major contributor.If she just threw in a few kind words to James, John’s raise was almost guaranteed.“Really?” John’s voice was no longer as reluctant. It was suddenly enthusiastic.“Yes, I guarantee it.”“Alright, I’ll get to it immediately. I’ll send them over once they’re done. Will I be disturbing your rest if I send them over before dawn?”“It’d be great if you can send them over by dawn. I need 10 sets of them.”“10 sets?” John almost jumped with surprise. “Can I use the modern preparation method and put all 10 sets together, then seal them into separate bags?”“No. You mus
Sarah had always thought the problem with James’ taste buds was due to his tongue.However, she just learned that it was not the issue with the tongue.She must admit that the person’s poisoning method was just too cruel.He was such a young kid. In order to avoid attention, that person concocted a poison to destroy James’ spleen.The amount of poison used was minuscule. It was not lethal, nor would it be discovered.With that, when he finally lost his sense of taste, it would be too late for any investigations.That person was very skilled, but at the same time, ruthless.Looking at James who was sleeping, she suddenly understood. Perhaps in this world, there were not many people that he could fully trust.The one who poisoned him must have been originally close to him. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to be successfully poisoned. That was why he had always avoided interacting with others. Those that had nothing to do with him would never be entertained.His cold attitude mu
“Little Sarah, don’t go.”“How did you know it’s me? James, you’re awake, aren’t you?” Sarah patted James on the face but did not get a response.“Little Sarah…” However, the man was continuously muttering her name.He would not stop—it was as though he was addicted.Sarah tried to move, but just as she was about to break free, she was immediately pulled back by James.This time, she was looking at him directly in the face.She looked at his closed eyes, remembering the day they first met. That day, he was similarly lying there with his eyes shut.Back then, she felt that he was filled with misfortune and found him displeasing to look at.She would never have expected James to look so much better when he was awake.His eyes were seductive, alluring one’s soul. Every time their eyes met, she felt her heartbeat quicken.“James, I’m sleepy. I still need to go to school tomorrow. Let me go.”The man ignored her and continued to sleep soundly.Why would the sleeping man pay her any attentio
If James was asleep, so be it.It was easier to fall asleep after drinking.“Ms. York, is something the matter?” John answered quickly and asked respectfully.“James is here with me. Do you think you can come pick him up?”“T-t-this...I’m already in bed,” As John replied, he lightly pinched the person beside him.Sarah immediately heard an astonished exclamation.A female voice.She immediately felt awkward. “S-s-sorry to interrupt. Can you help me notify the Marshall family’s caretaker that James won’t be going back tonight.”With James that drunk, she felt bad to force him to go back home.After all, this apartment was his property too.She was technically living under his roof.“Sure. Don’t worry. I’ll notify the caretaker.” John ended the call right after that.James had been drinking.It was the wine that he personally delivered.Although others may not know what went on in James’ head, John understood him.Back when Wendy invited Sarah to the Marshall family home, James had rega
