Leona's heart raced as she felt the warm sensation on her face. Instinctively, she pulled back, a mix of surprise and confusion etched on her features. Before she could react, the person's arms wrapped around her, attempting to counter her movement."Whoa, easy there," the voice whispered, amusement lacing the words. Leona's mind raced, her heart pounding, as she realized someone was playing with her. With a quick, calculated move, she mustered her strength and flung her arms toward the source of the touch, ready to counterattack.However, after a brief struggle, Leona's senses began to register something odd. The person's grip remained firm, but she was suddenly lifted from the driver's seat. Her heart skipped a beat, and she let out a startled yelp. Her fingers found something to hold onto in her frantic state, and she realized she was clutching onto the person's shirt.As she was moved to the passenger's seat, her mind began to process the situation. Her surroundings blurred
Sara and Thessa settled into a conversation about the upcoming birthday, with their words flowing effortlessly.Thessa began, "Sara, with your birthday approaching, have you thought about how you'd like to celebrate?"Sara smiled warmly, appreciating Thessa's involvement. "Oh, you know me, Thessa. I'm not one for grand celebrations. A simple gathering with family and close friends is all I need."Adam chimed in, surprising Sara, "I think it's about time we do something special for you, Mother. You deserve it."Sara's eyes softened as she looked at Adam. "Thank you, dear. That's very kind of you."Just then, Robert entered the hall with an arrogant and happy look.

“Finally an heir will be produced soon” Sara said with an excited look.They all looked at him with a shocked and confused look. “Gndmother...” Ethan was about to say something when Sara interrupted him.Sara's eyes sparkled with a mix of emotions as she faced Ethan. "Ethan, my dear, my son , why didn't you tell me anything?"Ethan's brows furrowed in confusion. "Tell you what, Grandmother?"Sara's happiness was palpable as she stood up and practically skipped over to him. She reached out and held his shoulders, a move that took Ethan aback, given her usual composed demeanor. "Oh, Ethan, I can't believe you're finally getting married!" she said excitedly. Ethan blinked in surprise. "Married? Grandmother, I..."Sara interrupted his unfinished question with a joyful laugh. "No need to be modest, dear. You've kept Leona a secret for long enough."Ethan's jaw nearly dropped. "Leona? How did you...?"Sara grinned, clearly reveling in her unexpected revelation. "Oh, Robert dear brought

“I don’t care what you think about me.
