The deep blue bedsheet was neatly spread out. But the two pillows lacked pillowcases, exposed in a sorry state.Eli placed his hands on his belt and turned to look at Tanya. "Is this also your doing?"Tanya leaned against the door frame, only poking her head in, smiling sheepishly."I accidentally drooled while sleeping that day and dirtied the pillowcase. Knowing that you're a neat freak, I took them all off to wash," she said. She raised her hand and swore, "The pillowcases have been washed and are in the cabinet at home."Eli wasn't interested in the pillowcases' whereabouts. He remembered when Amy called him, saying Tanya missed him and wanted to touch the sheets and pillows after waking up.Nonsense!He took a deep breath, then turned his head to Tanya with a frightening smile. Tanya realized the danger and tried to run, but he grabbed her by the waist."Hey, what are you doing?" she said.Eli tossed her onto the bed and followed suit."What are you doing?!""Collecting
Tanya walked out of the room with her guard down and came face to face with Ted's sneaky expression. She paused.Ted gasped, his brain instantly turning blank.He looked at Tanya, covered his mouth with his left hand, and placed his right hand over the left with his eyes gradually widening.God! This was insane!Tanya regained her composure and glanced in Eli's direction. Eli remained calm, glanced at the fruit plate on the table, and said, "Should we take some down to share with your colleagues?"Tanya nodded. She glanced at the still-disheveled Ted and kindly handed him a tangerine."Sir?"Ted swallowed, looked at Tanya, then at Eli. Finally, he settled his gaze on the tangerine in her hand, mechanically accepting it.Tanya turned to look at Eli. 'Look, you've scared my superior.'Eli shrugged."I'm leaving," she said.Eli nodded and escorted her to the door.Ted followed them out and was sent into the elevator by his boss. As the elevator doors closed, he let out a long
Eli being married was shocking enough, but then his wife was hiding right in the office. In the next half hour, Tanya heard wailing from all around.The atmosphere in their office was quite good, and everyone got along well. After coming clean, everyone joked around and teased each other."Nia, don't forget Mr. Ted, he's been cursing at you all along!""Yeah, he's been calling you a fool!""I heard it, I can testify!"Ted was furious and rushed out to hit someone. Tanya followed with laughter.Before leaving work, Amy indeed brought the cake and candies, sharing them with everyone in the building. Thus, the entire group gave them their blessings.From the office to the parking lot, Tanya received blessings. When she got into Eli's car, her heart was still pounding.Eli was happily eating his candy, feeling good. Especially now that he didn't have to sneak around anymore, he even turned the steering wheel effortlessly.Tanya, holding the cake, asked him in surprise, "Were these
Eli found it amusing. He pushed the head of the small money jar and couldn't help but say, "You gold digger! You love money so much, then why did you give the check I gave you to Soraya?"Tanya blinked and chuckled. "I only acquire wealth in the proper way. To be honest…" She pondered for a moment, then turned to look at him. "Probably because, at that time, I was just too fond of you like I am now."Hearing this, Eli felt a pang of heartache and leaned down to kiss her forehead. Tanya smiled, moved the gifts aside, and made some space for him.Just as they were about to talk, Eli's phone vibrated continuously. It turned out that Bridget was sending over the detailed preparation process for the wedding.Tanya scrolled through it and suddenly felt overwhelmed. Eli looked at it and also felt a headache coming. The two glanced at each other, sighed simultaneously, and leaned back.After they publicly disclosed their relationship, life continued as usual but became busier due to the w
Tanya's previous full-length mirror was still usable, but because it was small, she had to walk a bit farther every time she used it. Eli had long wanted to replace it.Little did he know, she got rid of many things in the house to make room for the new large sofa for him, including that old full-length mirror."How do you like it? Surprised?" He patted the mirror.Tanya smiled wryly and pointed to the large sofa. "And you? Surprised?" Only then did Eli notice fewer small items in the living room and a large new sofa. He suddenly chuckled. It was quite nice.He thought of her, and she thought of him. This winter was truly warm.Tanya abandoned the egg tart and hugged him again. "Oh no, this mirror is so big. There's nowhere to put it."Eli carried her with one hand and moved the mirror to the corner with the other. Sitting on the sofa, he thought for a moment, then hugged her and said, "Tanya, let's move to a bigger place."Tanya knew he had been thinking about this all along.
Charlotte Scott turned around and said to a few people present, "Thank you for remembering and coming to my parents' memorial day."She was dressed in a black dress. Her face was pale but she was composed and graceful. The guests attending the memorial ceremony comforted her briefly one after another and left. Charlotte took out her phone. She did not see any missed calls but instead noticed an entertainment news notification that had just popped up.'Katie Hussey and Mysterious Boyfriend Attended Berlin Film Festival Together!'Charlotte recognized the back figure of the man in the photo at a glance. It was her husband, Griffith Wilson. According to the entertainment news, the photo was taken exactly three days ago. At that time, she wanted to ask him to join her on her parents' memorial day, but she could not get through to him on the phone. As it turned out, he was busy accompanying his childhood sweetheart at a film festival.Feeling somewhat numb inside, she sighed heavily and
"It's been a long time. Don't you want it?" she asked as she offered her soft red lips.Her arms bent gracefully. Griffith released her and held her chin. Her slightly tousled long black hair nestled on her shoulders, accentuating her snow-white skin. Under the soft dim light, her beautiful eyes were mesmerizing. Griffith had never met a woman more stunning than Charlotte, and he could not deny that she was irresistible. Moreover, there was no reason for him to deny her since they were legally a couple. When Charlotte noticed that Griffith's eyes widened, she smiled faintly and sat up. Griffith placed his hand at the back of her head and took control assertively.The bedroom fell silent, but Griffith was ignited like a wildfire. He instinctively opened the drawer at a critical moment but failed to find what he was looking for. Charlotte opened her eyes and saw that Griffith was clearly displeased."It's fine. You don't have to use it. I'm already preparing for pregnancy," she said
Charlotte found it amusing knowing Griffith's concerns. After all, he had left in a hurry last night. She raised her chin slightly and said, "The're just some clothes."The maid chuckled nervously and replied, "Um… Weren't those still purchased by the Wilsons?" She quickly lowered her head to avert Charlotte's gaze at the end of her words.Charlotte tidied her hair and asked with a smile, "Even my clothes are considered a property of the Wilson Family? Is Griffith Wilson going to wear them if I leave everything behind?"The maid pondered seriously for a moment. After realizing it would be difficult for her to deal with Charlotte's clothes later, she awkwardly made way, allowing Charlotte to take her belongings with her. The chauffeur peeked out of the car window twice as Charlotte walked appeared at the doorway, showing no intention of offering her a ride. She pulled on the luggage's handle and strutted out of the mansion with her high heels.After leaving the residential area, Cha
