Julian was so angry at Ryan that he could not help but mock him. “Let me tell you, with that cold expression and arrogant attitude of yours, she won’t help you even if you go to her!”Ryan raised his brows. “When I was discussing the collaboration for this project, I didn’t know that I would be divorced. Now that she insisted on getting a divorce and putting me in this situation, she should also bear half the responsibility for our project. So why wouldn’t she help me? Is she compensating us for the loss?” Julian was about to kneel to Ryan’s divine logic and he laughed derisively as he said, “Okay, fine, I’ll just wait for you to look for her! See if you can get her to cooperate with you to put on an act then!”Did Silvia have anything to do with their project? Somehow, this man was actually able to beat around the bush and push half the responsibility to her.Julian also came early in the morning to talk to Ryan in order to persuade him to issue a statement of divorce, but even
Wendy felt extremely moved. “You girls are coming back to me just because I’m giving birth to a baby?”Miya needled her on purpose. “Actually, we just want to go back to see Silvia lol”Jane also sent a snickering emoji, and Wendy was indignant. “I knew that you guys don’t have me in mind!” Silvia also felt warmth in her heart when she saw them joking and chatting so happily in the group chat. Losing Ryan did not mean that she was left with nothing. She still had a friendships and her parents’ affection. She should also work harder for their sake. As for those words of cynicism or sympathy for her because of this news, she did not care about them at all. She would simply let those people say whatever they wanted regardless of whether it was good or bad. Why would she burden herself and be troubled by this? If she had time to spare, then she should use it to study more.…Ryan got off work early in the evening and went to pick his daughter up from kindergarten. Before he cou
It was an expression of contempt for her father who could not cook.Ryan sighed helplessly.He’d booked the best restaurant in Detroit in order to let Autumn enjoy a good dinner, just so he could win the little princess’s smile. Dinner was fine, but when they got home at night, Autumn suddenly said that she missed her mother and wanted to video call her. However, Ryan did not have Silvia’s contact information at all. He did not have her phone number and she’d also blocked him on Whatsapp. When Autumn heard that he could not contact her mother, she felt wronged again and wanted to cry. Ryan called Nora angrily. “Give me her phone number!”Nora knew whose phone number he wanted and was terrified. “No! It’s not like you didn’t hear what Silvia said that day. She said that if you contact her through me again, she will block me too.”Ryan could not help but yell, “It’s Autumn who wants to contact her now, not me!”Nora heard Autumn’s voice on the other end of the line. “Aun
There were many things that one needed to personally experience in order to understand how difficult it was. Just like the matter of bringing up children, men always thought that it was a very easy and pleasant thing for women to look after children at home, but they did not know that it was incredibly tiring. He should have had a deep understanding of this after the past few days. There was a very good saying: “half of the military medal belonged to you, and half of it to me.” When a man worked hard for his career outside, the premise was that there must be a virtuous woman at home so that he could charge forward without any worries.However, Ophelia did not expect her son to still be so stubborn. He obviously could not take care of the child, but he still said to her nonchalantly, “I’m going on a business trip tomorrow so help me to take care of Autumn for a few days.”Ophelia was speechless at her son’s stubbornness, but she did not expose him. If he wanted to act tough, he co
“I don’t know if Nora has a boyfriend or not. If she does, it won’t be a good idea..” Mrs. Maton also felt what Ophelia said was right. “In that case, you should go back and ask Nora if she has a boyfriend. When Jason comes back, we can introduce them to each other.”Ophelia did not object to her proposal. If Mrs. Maton had proposed to introduce Nora to Julian, the eldest son of the Matons, Ophelia would have refused on the spot. Although Julian and Ryan had a good relationship, and although Julian had a decent personality, he did not have a very good reputation when it came to his affairs with women; he was a well-known playboy in Detroit. Nora had such a simple personality, so she would not be able to control this kind of playboy at all. On top of that, their age difference was also somewhat large. Nora was twenty-two years old this year, and Julian was the same age as Ryan, so he was ten years older. However, Jason, the youngest son of the Matons, was different. Ophelia kne
Nora was devastated. “I’d also like to know!”She also wanted to know why she still had no boyfriend when she was twenty-two years old. She had absolutely zero experience in love. The little girl with big black eyes thought for a while before comforting her, “Aunt, don’t worry, your prince will drive his pumpkin carriage to come and marry you soon.”“…”What was this all about?Nora was only twenty-two years old, so why should she be in a hurry? She was not in a rush at all; she was only depressed that a few girls in the same dormitory as her would always make fun of her because she had zero experience in love.She held Autumn in her arms, then closed her eyes, and cried, “You cried to me and said that all fairy tales are lies—"Autumn was instantly scared away by her and jumped off to find her grandmother.… In the restaurant.Ryan and Julian walked in side by side. After walking a few steps, Julian could not help but turn his head to glance in the direction where Nora and
They met each other during work when they took charge of their respective companies. When they met, Ryan and Silvia were already married, so Julian did not know much about Ryan’s first love.Ryan silently took a sip of his wine.On the afternoon of the day when he issued that public statement, Mariah’s nurse had called him and said that Mariah lost control of her emotions when she saw his statement. She howled and screamed hysterically in the room, and the nurse had to give Mariah a sedative. He knew that Mariah would be irritated, so he was already mentally prepared. After receiving the call from the nurse, he went to visit Mariah in the villa. Mariah’s eyes were red and swollen from crying. As soon as she saw him, she complained frantically, “Ryan, are we ordinary friends? Are we really ordinary friends? I’ve loved you for so many years and you love me too, don’t you? If it wasn’t for your father, Silvia, or Rowan back then, we would still be together now! We would have alr
“He said that he hated that you were born and took away everything that originally belonged to him. He said that he hated that you were living so happily and had both love and Pierce Group. He said that he also hated your parents, your family, and everything about the Pierces! He said that he must destroy you! That’s why he took me away and tortured me, just so he could see you in pain!”Mariah’s words managed to intensify the gloominess in his eyes. If this was really Rowan’s ultimate goal, he would not continue sitting without doing anything any longer. He should take the initiative to attack and uproot Rowan so as to eliminate any future problems. Julian was used to his silence. After taking a sip of wine, he said, “I won’t care about the project anymore in the future. Besides, I’ve already done all the public relations work before this. Since you caused all these problems, you’ll have to take care of it yourself when that old French man comes then.”“I will choose to go on a
