He asked Mary, “How did Sheila know you spent the night at my place?“Did she come by?”“Dr. Jones didn’t come, but she called me last night to ask how you were doing. I said you fell asleep, and she asked if I was still in your house. When I told her that I was, she just told me to look after you and hung up.”Mary told a small lie.“Dr. Jones is clever. She definitely guessed that I spent the night here.”Kent got up from the floor. He said, “I was drunk and didn’t know what I was doing last night, Mary. Besides, we didn’t have sex.“Even if someone knew you spent the night at my place, they wouldn’t know what we had done. Anyone would know that nothing could’ve happened between us since I was utterly wasted.“I’ll give you a raise and a one-off compensation, okay?”He did not want to be forced into marrying Mary just because he got drunk once.Mary simply stared at him for a while before getting out of bed.However, she did not leave his house immediately. She exited the b

Kent remembered that Mary had brought him home. They even had a long conversation on the way back. They also talked about their families. Mary said they were meant to be together and told him to stop pining for Sheila.She also promised that if she were to marry him, she would stop giving money to her parents, like now.She would prioritize her new family and only give her parents some allowance during special occasions.Mary also advised him not to let his relatives take advantage of him anymore and to stop shouldering everything himself. She said his parents simply had too much pride and loved bragging.Kent had replied that he could not let Sheila go. He had loved her and waited for her for so many years. Now that he had finally confessed and was wooing her, how could he give up just because she rejected him several times?Some people did not give up even after their love interests rejected them countless times. In the end, their persistence touched their love interests, an

Grandma May replied, “Your grandparents and uncles have gone to Solville. Your Uncle River is getting married.”“Married?”Callia raised her head and asked, puzzled, “Why?”Grandma May smiled. “He’s going to bring another aunt home for you. Didn’t you guys want another aunt?“It’s Aunt Rose. The Aunt Rose you like is going to be your Uncle River’s wife.”Callia did not understand Grandma May’s words despite the patient explanation.Grandma May lifted her and said, “You don’t have to understand it, Lil’ Pie. You just need to know that there’ll be one more person joining our family in the future. Your grandparents will be back soon.“Do you miss them?”Callia nodded. “Yes.”“Why don’t we have a seat at the summer house and give your nana a call?”Callia nodded again.However, as soon as they were seated, Grandma May’s phone rang.Serenity had sent her a voice message, asking if Callia had woken up and eaten something.After replying to Serenity’s message, Grandma May let Cal

Alex walked toward them and lifted Callia into his arms.Callia stopped drinking her formula for a moment to greet her uncle. Alex placed a kiss on her cheek. He said, “I see you’re drinking your milk.”Callia paused again and lifted her bottle to Alex’s mouth. She stared at him with her big eyes, asking if he wanted some. She was generous enough to share her food with Uncle Alex.“I’m not drinking. You can have it all.”Callia continued drinking her formula after Alex refused her offer. She quickly finished the bottle as she was hungry and craving milk.After that, she handed the bottle to Alex, wanting him to wash it for her.He put her down and went to the bathroom to wash the bottle. By the time he was done, Grandma May already had Callia in her arms and was about to head downstairs.“Put Lil’ Pie down, Nana,” Alex called.Grandma May turned to look at him. She asked, “What’s the matter?”After putting the bottle back, Alex walked over and said in a serious tone, “

Of course, the nanny would head upstairs to take a look from time to time. She would not let Callia go downstairs herself.In a few minutes, Grandma May heard Callia calling for her mother in the room. “Are you awake, Lil’ Pie? Your mom has gone to work. Great-Nana is here.”Callia quickly exited the room when she heard Grandma May’s voice. Grandma May opened the door for her great-granddaughter. The little girl was still in her pajamas, looking a little dazed as she had just woken up. Upon seeing Grandma May, she reached out for a hug.Grandma May lifted her. Callia hugged Grandma May’s neck and said softly, “Great-Nana.”“I’m here. Are you wide awake? Do you want to sleep a little more?”Callia rested her head on Grandma May’s shoulder, clinging to her. Grandma May loved the feeling of being relied on. Callia shook her head. She had a great time last night. After arriving home, she fell asleep after her mother had bathed her. She did not even drink her formula and slep

While eating, he said, “Nana, you’re at such an age, yet your teeth are still so good, and you eat so quickly.”“The breakfast you prepared for me is soft and easy to digest, so of course I ate quickly.“I’ll wait for you outside. Hurry up.”As she spoke, Grandma May got up and left the dining room.Alex finished his breakfast as quickly as possible, leaving the dishes for his housekeeper to clean up.He picked up the cup of coffee he had not touched yet and drank it as he walked out of the dining room.It took him one minute to finish the coffee. Putting down the cup, he grabbed his car keys and headed out.Grandma May was sitting in the yard.Seeing him come out, Grandma May stood up, urging him, “Hurry up, hurry up. Lil’ Pie is about to wake up.”Alex walked toward the car, laughing, “Nana, I haven’t even digested my breakfast yet. You used to tell us we had to sit for over ten minutes after eating before doing anything else.”“You’ll be sitting while driving later. It won
