Chapter 71 Proposal
Dylan had always known how bad Scarlett was with dates, but he had hoped she would remember his birthday just once. However, it had been six years, and she had never once remembered his birthday. If she didn't have her phone, she probably wouldn't remember anyone's birthday at all. He had hoped she would remember this year's, but he was dismayed yet again."I'm disappointed." Dylan pouted sadly.Scarlett chuckled. "At least you haven't given up on me yet."Dylan glared at her. He would never give up on her. No matter what, as long as it concerned her, he would always care. "Well, where's my present, then?" Dylan asked shamelessly with his arm outstretched.She didn't even remember his birthday, so how could she have prepared a present for him? "I told you I forgot about your birthday. I'll give you your gift tomorrow."Dylan retracted his hand to rummage through his bag, his fingers brushing over a small box. He breathed in and decided that it was now or never. "Do you know

Chapter 72 Embarrassed
"Maybe I'm not up to your standards right now, and you don't feel like you want to marry me immediately, but please believe that the feelings I have for you are all genuine." Dylan's confession came straight from the bottom of his heart.Scarlett's tears had started flowing freely down her face since he began his confession. She was so touched. She had always known that Dylan had done many things for her but hearing him describe his love for her had moved her immensely. He had sacrificed so much in the past six years for her and had never shown interest in any other woman besides her. Furthermore, he had even assured her that he would treat Lucas like his own son and could even sacrifice having children of his own just to prove his point. Not many people could treat someone else's son as their own.Maybe he was lying to her, and he would regret his words in the future, but right now, Scarlett was moved to tears by his confession."Yes, I will marry you." There was no reason for he

Chapter 73 Can I Not Call Him Daddy?
Lucas noticed the ring on Scarlett’s finger and thoughtlessly asked, “Did Uncle Dylan give you that ring? Did you accept his proposal?”Scarlett blushed, scratching her head. “I guess you can say that.”“What do you mean you guess? Then what about...” Lucas almost blurted out Jonathan's name, but he managed to seal his lips just in time. “What about what?” Scarlett got curious now that Lucas brought it up.“What about me?” Lucas wondered why his mother had accepted Dylan’s proposal. Did she really not have any feelings for Jonathan?“Pfft.” Scarlett chuckled. “You’re my son; what about it? You can call him Daddy then.”“But he’s not my dad!” Lucas grumbled inwardly. Lucas thought this was all Jonathan’s fault because he was so bad at flirting. Dylan was much better, judging by how quickly Mommy had fallen for him. This was bad; he would have to talk to Jonathan tonight. “Can I not call him Daddy? It’s so awkward.” Lucas whined softly. “Then do you want to continue calling

Chapter 74 To Keep a Relationship Going
Jonathan's lack of confidence last night made him look subpar compared to Dylan, who was beaming today. Dylan was skilled at navigating interpersonal relationships, whereas Jonathan only knew how to act tough. If only he were more gentle towards Mommy, he would definitely get her. That's why it's crucial to be a gentleman to win a woman's heart. Someone once said that a woman in love would expect her man to treat her well. That was exactly Dylan’s strategy, and it was also what would keep a relationship going. "Lucas, can you get me a tissue?" Scarlett asked because it was right beside him, but Lucas was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't answer."Lucas…Lucas! Snap out of it!" Scarlett cried out loudly.Lucas looked at Scarlett in a daze. "What's wrong, Mommy?""I should be asking you that. You were daydreaming when I asked you to pass me a tissue. What were you thinking about? A beautiful girl?" Scarlett asked, clearly amused.Lucas wasn't embarrassed as he candidly replie

Chapter 75 Narcissism is Genetic
“Baby, I’m not sure if it's possible to win this case... How about you find the evidence, and I’ll just appear in court? I know I won’t be able to manage. 100 million dollars? This is my biggest case yet.” She could guess what type of client she had for this case, and she was fortunate to have Lucas when things got tough for her.Although the sum of money involved was tempting, Scarlett wasn’t the type to accept a case she wasn’t confident she could win. The money was secondary to her; her main concern was whether she could win the case. A case that needed 100 million dollars had Scarlett thinking that there was a slim chance of winning it. However, since they’d already taken on this case, it was her responsibility to look deeper into it. “Lucas, tell me about this case.”Lucas pretended he didn’t hear her and looked at Scarlett pitifully, his eyes shifting. Scarlett wasn’t dumb, and she suddenly realized something. “Lucas, please don’t tell me you accepted it without taking a look a

Chapter 76 Infuriating
Both mother and son spent the whole afternoon in the office, decorating the place and whatnot. They had worked up a sweat and were about to leave when they had an unexpected visitor. Only Scarlett was surprised; Lucas seemed unperturbed since he'd just encouraged the man to make more effort to win his mother over last night."Why are you here?" Scarlett asked, puzzled.Jonathan wasn't sure how he'd ended up here either. He’d ordered someone to tail her since he was afraid Phoebe and Tristan wouldn't let her go. He'd heard that she'd opened her own law firm in this area, and after he was done with work, he inadvertently found himself here. If he was honest, he had waited downstairs for half an hour, contemplating whether to come up. Upon seeing both mother and son bonding so happily, he immediately felt better, his heart filling with warmth. "I just… I was just passing by." Jonathan made the most pathetic excuse."Mr. Leonard, this is the 32nd floor. How could you just have been

Chapter 77 Get Your Ass Here Immediately
Scarlett’s ruffled state brought Jonathan so much joy that he was already humming a tune in his head. He looked pleased, and his good mood was palpable. Lucas heard his mother screaming behind them, and he also noticed the obvious change in Jonathan's mood. He wondered if Jonathan found joy in his mother’s anger. Usually, Lucas would be terrified when his mother got angry and would try to make her happy, but Jonathan was happy instead. He believed that was the reason Lucas was loved by his mother while Jonathan was unable to win her over. He was delighted when he thought about it.They were both difficult people—one was domineering and the other was stubborn. Their personalities were like fire and water, and if they didn’t find a balance, it would be hard for them to get along. Seeing that Scarlett was still five feet away when the elevator doors began to close, Jonathan surreptitiously pressed the button for the doors to reopen. Scarlett assumed that Lucas had pressed the button

Chapter 78 Mr. Leonard Can Cook
"Exactly. We'll go meet up with her later." Scarlett was so happy, she forgot there was someone else with them. "Macy? Who's that?" Jonathan wondered. From how Lucas addressed her, he knew Macy was a woman, but he was still vexed. Scarlett always smiled in front of other people but never at him, and he wanted an explanation. Even if Macy was a woman, he still felt uneasy about it. Yet he’d never considered why he felt uneasy. He gloomily stood at one side and listened to them chatter away without uttering a word. The heavy atmosphere that hung in the air finally made the mother-son duo realize something was amiss, and Lucas asked despondently, "Mommy, are we going home for dinner first before meeting Auntie Macy, or are we going straight to meet her?"“That’s a good question,” Scarlett thought. If she were to meet up with Macy, she'd have to get rid of Jonathan since she wasn't going to take him along with her, and that made her feel bad. She then decided there was only one w

Chapter 79 Not As Free As You Are
"I'll be your assistant then. You can prepare today's dishes." Lucas generously passed the position of head chef to Jonathan, and he graciously accepted.Jonathan picked up the knife and skillfully cut up the carrots, with every piece equally sized, not one too big nor too small. Lucas was impressed with Jonathan's skills, and even though he still thought he was better, he was reassured that tonight’s dinner was in good hands. Scarlett was watching TV on the couch, but she wasn't paying attention as her gaze kept wandering over to the kitchen. It was a heartwarming sight for her to see the two of them busy together.The ring on her finger suddenly felt like it was exuding heat, as if it were burning her skin and punishing her for her infidelity. She glanced at the ring and touched it gently. She knew she should stop having second thoughts when she'd already accepted Dylan's proposal. Yet, if Lucas wanted to acknowledge Jonathan as his father, she would just let him be. She had me

Chapter 80 A Headstrong and Stubborn Love
Dylan trusted Scarlett to keep her promise and not go back on her word since she'd accepted his proposal. However, what he truly wanted was her heart, and he was worried that it would go to Jonathan. It didn’t feel good, and he didn’t like it. If that day came, he probably wouldn’t know what to do. He would be unwilling to let go. Jonathan was the only one who made him feel threatened. Back in Amerstica, Scarlett had been friendly with a few men too, but he knew that they were just platonic. Scarlett had always said Jonathan was just a friend, but he could sense that wasn’t the truth. Dylan might be sensitive and jealous, but that was because he loved her. He had stood silently beside her for the past six years, wanting to give her the world, but she didn’t need it. He knew she was a headstrong and stubborn woman; that's why he’d stood by her side, patiently waiting for her to look back, so that when she got tired, she could nestle into his arms for warmth and dependence. But s
