Chapter 110

With his signature smile, Jamie said to Fiona, "You were a lovely and kind woman."

Fiona countered Jaime's pleasantries, "I'm just being myself. And you? You're young and should have a more interesting career out there, but you choose to serve this remote orphanage!"

Jamie merely smiled faintly. Deep down, he didn't want to linger in a remote orphanage like Danswell either. However, his troubled past had caused many problems, and as compensation for his actions that often troubled the orphanage administrators, Jamie had dedicated his life to the Danswell orphanage.

Nonetheless, he tried to forget about it by teasing Fiona for entertainment. With a suppressed smile, he said, "Your boyfriend must be very lucky to have you."

Fiona stifled a laugh, her cheeks blushing. Inwardly, Fiona wondered, "Is that so? Is Stephen truly grateful to have me?"

Jamie noticed the look on Fiona's face and felt that he had captivated her. But then Fiona said, "Yeah, I hope he's grateful to have m

    Fiona's words reverberated like thunder in his ears. With eyes bulging and cold sweat trickling down his back, he muttered in his heart, "What did she say? Stephen is a wealthy man? What kind of nonsense is this? Maybe she has been brainwashed or hypnotized!"Noticing Fiona's earnest expression, her clear gray eyes leaving no room for doubt, he wondered, Is she truly out of her mind?Suppressing a laugh and catching his breath, Jamie intervened, "Fiona, wake up!" He was convincing to Fiona.Meanwhile, a man with dark skin grabbed Jamie's arm and pulled him aside, pleading, "Please, don't be foolish! Stephen is Miss Fiona's husband!" Johnnie's eyes beseeched Jamie to stop his bad behavior. Though they had once shared the same roof at the orphanage, enduring hardship and sharing meager resources, today Stephen was a generous benefactor who had made a significant donation to the Danswell orphanage."You—," Jamie stared at Johnnie before grabbing him by the collar. "You've been brainwashed

    Once in the car, Stephen and Fiona felt relieved because their spontaneous activity had gone well, even without proper planning. After the event at Danswell Orphanage, they decided to rest in the car for a while, using the time to chat. Fiona exclaimed with enthusiasm, "I'm so excited about today's activities! I honestly didn't expect the food and gifts for the children to arrive on time! I truly appreciate William's fast and precise work!" Her face radiated an indescribable happiness and beauty when she was enthusiastic, and that was what made Stephen happy—to see Fiona pleased. The blonde man nodded and said, "When it comes to William, I assure you there's no need to doubt him! He was my late father's most trusted man." "Really?" Fiona's eyes widened, reflecting Stephen's face in her clear eyes. Stephen continued his story, "Just so you know, he's the one who deleted the video of me getting beaten up in a restaurant." The corners of Stephen's lips curved up, forming a faint smil

    After his work was done, Stephen turned off the laptop and cleaned himself up to change into an expensive black suit that matched Fiona's dress. Earlier, Fiona had brushed Stephen's hair, tied his tie, and helped him into his vest and suit.For a moment, Fiona was stunned by Stephen's flawless handsomeness and muttered, "You are so handsome, Stephen!"The man raised an eyebrow arrogantly and said, "I've been handsome since birth!"Fiona rolled her eyes and chuckled, "Yeah, you're right! But that's because you were born a boy!" The two of them laughed together as they exited the penthouse and made their way towards the Golden Chamber.Their laughter made Stephen suspect that Fiona was in a good mood. He realized that this dinner meeting was not going to be an ordinary one, despite Fiona arguing that she just wanted to thank Keyla or be friendly.Stephen knew that this meeting could be very emotional, or even worse, if Fiona or Keyla couldn't control their emotions. Therefore, he decided

    Fiona turned to Stephen and calmly said, "I've thought about it, Stephen. I'm very grateful to Keyla because the action was so timely! I do this as a form of expression of sincerity. With this, I hope not to have any more debt to Keyla!"Stephen studied the details of Fiona's face. The woman did not hesitate in the slightest with her decision. However, Stephen could not let that happen. He gently said to the beautiful brown-haired woman beside him, "Fiona! That ring is the only thing left by your late mother! If you want to thank Keyla, let me pay for it!"Meanwhile, Keyla looked at the ring with a very sparkling gem. She knew the ring was very expensive. And what made its value even higher was that it was an item that was extremely valuable to Fiona. She thought to herself, "So these aren't their wedding rings!" Keyla grinned.In fact, at first, she really hoped that the ring was Stephen and Fiona's wedding ring. If that's the case, her interest in the ring will plummet. She didn't ne

    After Kyla had given her decision, she became Fiona's little sister. From that point on, perhaps their lives would be different. No one knew.Not wanting to dwell on Keyla Fox for too long, Fiona changed the subject. She gazed at the pixie-haired woman who had been quiet since earlier."Briana," she said, "I've watched your video multiple times. Every time I see you on TV, I'm intrigued to have extensive discussions with you. You come across as intelligent and courageous!" Fiona sincerely praised Briana.Briana responded casually, "You're exaggerating, Fiona! I'm not that brave, actually."Fiona's eyes widened in disbelief. "Is that true?"Briana turned to the beautiful twenty-two-year-old woman beside her and placed a hand on Kyla's shoulder. "Keyla is my inspiration. She's young, spontaneous, genuine, and brave. If it weren't for seeing this beautiful model's video, maybe I would've kept postponing the campaign against environmental pollution in Havigleq town."The beautiful light br

    Keyla's action caught Raymond off guard. He gently attempted to release himself from her embrace. "Wait... wait...! Miss Keyla, you can't behave like this here!"Keyla lifted her face lazily, her eyes meeting a sturdy man with brown skin, dressed black shirt and a black jacket. She laughed again and said, "Don't worry, it's safe here. No paparazzi!" She wrapped her arms around Raymond's neck.Raymond let out a heavy sigh. The woman before him was truly testing his professionalism. With their faces inches apart, he spoke firmly, "No! Miss Keyla, you need to sleep now. Tomorrow night, you have to walk the catwalk. If not, you'll appear tired in front of all the guests!"Raymond gently pulled Keyla's slender body, urging her to stand up. She let out a spoiled scream in front of the orchestra group, "You seem so aggressive and impatient!" Their interaction became a spectacle for the restaurant staff and the orchestra.Raymond paid no attention to Keyla's incoherent words, knowing she was i

    After Stephen finished speaking, he invited his expert staff to convey the progress of the Magnificent Emerald Park project. A fat-looking man introduced himself, that man's name was Blake Kelly. The man spoke with a serious face, "Actually the building permit process has been completed. We are just waiting for a letter from the government. However, when our project was about to start, a group of the community around the park site rejected the construction of the Magnificent Emerald Park." Stephen paid attention to Blake's explanation, then he asked, "What is the reason for their reluctance? Didn't the local people agree before?" Blake again explained, "I suspect there has been a misunderstanding. They refused because they felt they would become strangers in their own area because of the location of the tourist spot. This concern arises from the location of the Magnificent Emerald park which is very wide. While the surrounding community is not much in number. They are afraid of bei

    Fiona hastily wiped away the tears, then smiled. She acted as if she were fine, even though it was obvious someone had slapped her on the cheek and she was clearly in tears."Stephen, I'll tell you later. But first, let's take a shower!" This time she looked at Stephen without hesitation, showing her teary gray eyes. She looks like she's trying to seduce her husband.At that time, Stephen suspected that Fiona deliberately did not answer his words because she had hidden her tears in the bathroom. Then, because she didn't want her husband to worry too much, she undressed herself and invited Stephen to bathe together. That was just a guess for now.The brunette woman in the tub grabbed Stephen's jacket to take it off. But before the suit fell, Stephen held Fiona's hand.With a probing voice, Stephen asked, "Are you hiding something from me?"Fiona smiled stiffly, "I don't want to hide anything. I'll tell you later. Now, you wash up first!"Stephen stared at Fiona, while his hands gripped

After the park's inauguration, visitors increasingly enjoyed the free tourist spot. At that moment, Falla was in Fiona's arms, looking enthusiastic as they strolled through the beauty of the park. Fiona turned to her husband and said, "What if we go on the Ferris wheel?" Stephen looked up at the ferris wheel with the slowly rotating baskets. He thought for a moment, then said, "Alright. Let's go there." They walked together towards the Ferris wheel. However, suddenly Falla rebelled in Fiona's embrace and started crying. Fiona gently comforted her baby, "Falla, what's wrong? Are you scared of going on the Ferris wheel?" But Falla's cries didn't stop. Fiona tried to comfort Falla with a small doll she usually played with. But Falla continued to cry.

Stephen had decided that Aiden still needed to face his punishment.In a low, pressing voice, Stephen said, "If you admit guilt, do you still deserve to be among us?"Aiden looked at Stephen, not surprised by Stephen's decision, but remorseful for his own foolishness and ill treatment of Stephen and Fiona all this time.Moreover, this was not the same Stephen that Aiden had once suppressed. After this, Aiden wouldn't be able to escape Stephen, even if he hid at the ends of the earth. Stephen would surely pursue him and find him.

He had known about Keyla's feelings for a long time, and her expressions were not new to him.Gently, Stephen spoke, "Keyla."The supermodel's chest rose and fell as she struggled to contain the turmoil within, which seemed ready to burst. She was very afraid of what Stephen would say, but in reality, she continued to stand there, almost frozen in place.Looking directly at the supermodel, Stephen said, "I know how you feel, Keyla. But, you know I am already married, and soon I'll be a father?"The beautiful woman took a deep breath and nodded, "Yes, I understand."

    Stephen, anoyed with the disrespectful behavior of Fabian Hudson's ex-girlfriends, spoke in a cold tone, "Quickly, tell me what you want in meeting the patriarch?"The women nudged each other in confusion at the unexpected presence of the patriarch. Their eyes exchanged clear expressions of anxiety, but their determination remained firm. Their visit to the Hudson family mansion had to yield results – they wanted to regain the privileges Fabian had once granted them.Since none of them dared to speak in front of the patriarch after openly admitting their mistakes, Stephen said coldly, "Damn it, I've wasted my time with a bunch of foolish women."
