70: Satisfied? It's Bothersome
"Ria..." Nanny Mary looked at her, concerned.
"It's nothing. I should verify with mom and dad first." Zaria smiled lightly, though her heart heavy with uneasiness.
"Child, how are you? Is something the matter?" Madam Anderson was surprised when she received a call from Zaria. Nevertheless, she was happy because she had heard the very good news yesterday.
'I can't wait to hold my grandchildren.'
"Mom, ...I'm fine?" Zaria nervously clenched the cell phone in her hand, her voice filled with apprehension as well as her answer came out to be a rather question instead.
Madam Anderson's glee expressions changed.
"What happened, dear?? Why do you sound so anxious?"? Master Anderson, who had just come to sit with his wife, heard this and turned to his wife questionably wondering what had happened.
"Is Elian there with you...? He h

"Why isn't she waking up?" Madam Anderson was sitting on the edge of the bed. She was as nervous and afraid as ever as she clasped Zaria's hand."Maybe this is because Young Madam Ria didn't have dinner last night. She told me she didn't have an appetite and that she would cook for herself and Young Master. I shouldn't have listened to her." Nanny Mary felt remorse when she gazed at Ria who still had not gained consciousness.It was so scary when Zaria passed out so abruptly. It reminded her of Mia Anderson who collapsed some months ago and dreadful news of her having a brain tumour was heard, spreading agony in the hearts of people."It's okay, Nanny Mary. You don't need to blame yourself." Madam Anderson responded and turned to Master Anderson, "Darling, should we call a doctor? I can't bear to see my princess like this."Just when Master Anderson was about to say something,

"What are afraid of? Major will not kill him." Parker tried to convince Tyler. In Mason's absence, Tyler had told the situation to Parker. There was only one reason behind it.His straight man pride was hurt."Heh, who knows that we might be called to pick up his corpse later.""Whose corpse?" A voice came from their behind.Jumping from their seats, Tyler and Parker both answered, "No one's!"Jessica Miller watched them without batting an eyelash. She knew what they were talking about. She just wanted to confirm it."We were just playing around. Please believe us!""Yes, yes! We were really playing around.""...""Where is he?" She looked around. Her eyes wandered through each and every corner of the room."W-Who?" The men decided to play dumb as they fiddled with
Lost 73: Major Miller's Unusual Behaviour
Shut. He gently closed the door.Mason was still smiling when a running Jessica Miller met him outside the Major's room. She looked like she had covered a huge distance coming to him."You... did something happen when you were there?"Mason did not answer and kept staring at her. After a minute passed, he smiled widely and launched himself at Jessica who pushed his face away."You care for me! You do care for me!"Mason did not care about anything now. What world? His wife was enough."Shut up. Did my father do anything to you?" Her eyes were sharp, but a tint of concern could be seen in her flustered face as she kept analysing him from head to toe. "We just had some men talk," Mason scratched his neck, his eyes showing playfulness. "You don't...""Jess, you need to relax. Our father isn't some monster." Mason grabbed Jessica's shoulders. "He's my father." Jessica rectified him. "In no time, he will be mine, too." Mason playfully winked at her. "Let's go." It was no use fighting

"Hello, my little friends." Zaria Smith smiled as she approached her flowers in her lovely garden and started watering them.Who would have thought that the girl who could not live peacefully without seeing her flowers for even one day, would see her little babies after so long?'It has been a long time.' "We told the gardener to water them daily, so you don't need to worry about these." Hearing Madam Anderson's word, Zaria turned around and brightly smiled. "They are being gently taken care of.""Thank you so much, mom." "It's okay, dear. You don't need to thank me. We all are aware of how much these flowers are important to you." Zaria and her mother-in-law were walking in the garden with light steps when Madam Anderson abruptly stopped, "Ria, I'm not trying to be meddlesome, I just want to know that is there something terrible happening between you two which John and I don't know of?"Zaria bit her lips. She knew who was her mother-in-law referring. "I know it is between you,

"You're just bluffing." The man scowled.'Yes, this is what she is doing. She's trying to make me accept that. I will never agree.' "What did I do that you're this ticked off, Mr Saltzman?" Me Saltzman's face went pale and his throat dried. Sofia Brown knew how to make someone shut up."Oh, wait. Maybe I know." Sofia stopped herself. "Your Honor, if you permit me, I would like to throw some light on the prospects people have on Mr Saltzman.""Permission granted." Judge Edward nodded seriously. He was curious about how this little girl was going to handle such a situation like this. "It's not me but the comments of people, okay? Don't mind," Sofia innocently coaxed and the man had a sudden premonition, "It is said that you're a douchebag who has played with numerous women and was seen having affairs in hotels by the people every night even though you have a wife at home. "Eleven r*pe cases have also been filed against you. Plus, you are accused of using bribery in your business an
Lost 76: False Allegation
"Heh, you thought being me out of the country would put a lit on your sins?" Mrs Saltzman's voice was cold and Mr Saltzman broke out in a cold sweat.And to think she lived a whole decade with a despicable man like this who had been hiding his true self just to get his hands on her money. How did she not see his true face under that dotting flattery mask all these years?"Honey, let me explain... It's really nothing. This woman was seducing me and kept telling me to leave you, but I refused her. I did nothing wrong. These are all false allegations. Please, believe me." Mr Slatzman's voice was persuading. However, his voice lacked sincerity. If it were the past, Mrs Saltzman would have been convinced by his words and instead would wrongly find faults in others.Mrs Saltzman glanced at the frightened girl who was trembling like a child who had been surrounded by dangerous criminals. As if on instinct, the girl made eye contact with her and pleaded with her eyes silently."Really? Then

"The recording, please." Sofia loudly requested. "Miss Brown, I'll not be taking more time of you. I just want you to lose this case to my lawyer and in return, you can have as much as you want," The voice of the man in the recording said."What about the lady who demands justice?" The female replied.The man started laughing, "Justice? Is this even present nowadays? Miss Brown, you and I both know that the world doesn't work like this. We yield to the one who is superior to us and you know the rest already.""Did you do that to her?" "Yes, so what? I gave her an offer, but she chose to refuse. I had no choice but to do that to her, but does it really matter? The point is you'll not be able to win this and nobody could before you. How about working with me? I possess more wealth than anyone could ever imagine. Step down from this case, and you can't imagine the amount you will be given ." "What about your wife? Does she know about your infidelity?""My wife? She's a naive woman." T
Lost 78: The things People Do For Love
When Zaria knocked, a lot of time passed and no one opened the entrance door. Knock.Knock!Zaria Smith was getting impatient but she did not let it reflect on her face. At this time, she glanced at the neighbourhood. It was a separate area where only some of the huge houses were established. It was obvious that it was a rich neighbourhood. She was busy peering at her surroundings when the door opened. Zaria let out a smile but it dimmed slightly since it was not Elian Anderson, but an elderly man in his mid-fifties who greeted her."Yes?"Zaria was confused. Did she come to the wrong address? "Are you here to apply for a job?" "A job?" Finally, Zaria said something."Young Master is hiring people for house chores. Miss, are you here for that?" Old Butler asked again. "You will find an old butler when you reached there. I sent him there to look after Elian. Don't worry, he is a good man." Suddenly, she remembered Madam Anderson's words and her eyes flickered in realization. "Ah
