Samantha leaned against the back of the chair.
At first, everything seemed normal.
However, as the drip rate increased, she suddenly felt her stomach churning, nauseated, and on the verge of vomiting.
Noticing her face, which had just gained a rosy hue, turning pale again, and her forehead covered in tiny beads of sweat, Ethan immediately asked nervously, "What's wrong with you?"
Samantha didn't want to bother with him, so she forcefully suppressed the nausea and shook her head.
Ethan's eyes turned ice-cold in an instant.
"If you want your daughter to become an orphan, then keep acting tough."
Thinking of Charlotte and Alexander, and thinking of the internal traitor beside her, Samantha's blood turned cold, as if soaking in icy water.
Ethan was right. Her life was not important. But she absolutely couldn't let Charlot
Samantha lay on the bed, feeling utterly weak.Suddenly, her phone, placed on the bedside table, rang.The incoming call displayed an unfamiliar number.She hesitated for a moment, then answered and murmured, "Hello.""Sammie, are you sick?"The voice was deep, hoarse, and filled with deep concern.Samantha, upon hearing the voice, couldn't help but shudder.It was actually Justin.She instinctively thought of hanging up the phone.As if sensing her intention, Justin urgently said, "Sammie, don't hang up. Didn't you say we can't be a couple, but we can still be friends."Samantha hesitated for a moment but ultimately did not hang up the phone.Justin asked, "I heard about your situation. Are
This is absolutely not her illusion, and definitely not one person.Certainly, it's two people.Because the Alexander that just entered the elevator was wearing a set of white affordable casual wear, with cartoon slippers he bought at the feet.And now, the Alexander that came out from behind the rockery is wearing a white T-shirt and gray jeans, with white running shoes at the feet.Seemingly simple, but very expensive.From her understanding of luxury goods, this set costs at least seven figures.She knows Samantha too well.Absolutely can't afford such expensive clothes.She stabilized her mind, pretended to be calm, walked over and patted his shoulder. "Alexander, what are you doing alone here so late!"Noah shook his whole body and turned
Due to illness, Samantha has been looking listless these past few days.Even Charlotte wither along with her.In the kindergarten, Charlotte sits on a small stool, facing the lollipop handed by her male classmate Henley without any interest.Seeing that even the lollipop couldn't spark any interest in Charlotte, Henley, concerned, asked, "Charlotte, what's wrong? Why are you so down? Are you sick?"Henley really likes Charlotte.From the first day Charlotte transferred to the school, he noticed this chubby and beautiful little girl.Knowing that she likes to eat, he brings her snacks in various styles every day.In the past, every time she received something to eat, she would happily call him "Brother Henley."He felt really sweet inside.Charlotte shook her head, "No, it's my mom who is sick. I'm worried about my mom."Henley quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, your mom will get better soon."Charlotte lowered her little head, still not in the mood.Henley turned his eyes and sudden
After ending the call with Suzy, Karen secretly opened Yurika's suitcase, skillfully entering the password. Although Yurika deliberately avoided her every time she opened the suitcase, Karen still managed to uncover her secret. With a ‘bip’ sound, the combination lock opened.Karen carefully searched inside and found a photo at the bottom, beneath the clothes. It was a picture of Yurika and Justin. Written in red pen on the back of the photo were the letters 'Y (Heart) J’.She had always known that Yurika was secretly keeping such a photo because, like Yurika, she had loved and lost before. Even though Yurika never admitted her feelings for Justin, Karen could see it in her eyes.Seeing this photo, Karen's eyes narrowed slightly. Thinking about the fact that the man both Samantha and Yurika admired would soon marry her, a sense of satisfaction filled her eyes.She took out the photo
The repeated deception made Samantha completely unable to believe her."So, out of jealousy, you conspired with Suzy to deal with me?"Upon hearing her words, Yurika was stunned.She hurriedly shook her head and denied, "No, although I have many shortcomings, my only virtue is loyalty. Even if you killed me, I would never betray my best friend."Samantha looked at her with disappointment. "You still want to play innocent. I witnessed Suzy calling you. When my initial draft was stolen, you were quick to shift the blame onto Karen. But Karen defended you."Yurika anxiously said, "Samantha, listen to me. Although I don't have evidence, I'm a hundred percent sure that it was Karen who did it. Karen has long been colluding with Suzy. Although Sarah and Suzy were the masterminds of the events back then, Karen definitely couldn't be unrelated."When Samantha suddenl
Ethan arrived early and sat in the private box, glancing at his wristwatch from time to time. For the first time, he felt time passing so slowly. Although it was only an hour, it seemed like a century.Just when he felt like time had come to a standstill, Samantha finally arrived. Upon seeing Ethan, she immediately put on a smile and handed him a small cake, saying, "Thank you for today. This is the cake I made this morning. It's for you."Seeing the cake so close, Ethan couldn't help but swallow saliva, his stomach growling embarrassingly loud, making its presence known.Samantha noticed his discomfort and, understanding his reluctance to eat sweets, stuffed the cake into his arms, saying with a smile, "I know you don't like sweets, but consider it a favor for me. Just eat it!""Remember, I'm giving you face!" Ethan grumbled, dead set on maintaining his dignity. He picked up a piece of cake and put
Ethan was momentarily stunned.The scent of Samantha's unique fragrance filled the air between them. His breath suddenly became erratic, and his heartbeat accelerated.Samantha nibbled on his thin lips, murmuring indistinctly, "You may not say it, but I know you care about me.""Who cares..." Ethan began to speak, but Samantha didn't give him a chance to deny; she sealed his lips again.Ethan froze, as if struck by lightning, unable to resist.Seeing his lack of response, Samantha boldly cupped his face, brought her red lips to his ear, and whispered in a voice only they could hear, "I heard your office has a lounge?"While asking, her eyes roamed around the office.Soon, her gaze settled on the door next to the bookshelf.Ethan's eyes narrowed suddenly, emitting a dangerous aura."What do you wan
Not long after Samantha and Ethan left the Emperor Group, Suzy arrived. She was stopped by Jade outside the door."Miss Miller, the president is not in the office."Suzy's face turned unpleasant, "I know he's in there, and Samantha is also inside. I am the future wife of your president, and I have the right to enter my future husband's office."Jade maintained a distant attitude, showing a professional demeanor. "I'm telling the truth. Ten minutes ago, Miss Samantha was hungry, and Mr. Steele went out to have a meal with her."Upon hearing this, Suzy's face instantly displayed a spectrum of colors, vivid and brilliant."He... he went out to have a meal with Samantha?" Her body trembled with anger.Even though she had given birth to a son for Ethan, he had never treated her specially, let alone taken her out for a meal. What kind of charm did Samantha possess
