Chapter 1286: Vera Ford Stayed the Entire Night
"I no longer believe in love..."Inside the departing car, a female journalist, greatly shaken, leaned back into her seat, nearly wanting to curse.
"Unless CEO Kingston and Mrs. Kingston get divorced, I still believe in love!"
Another female journalist laughed, "I’m a fan of them too, and I believe they’ll take their love all the way!"
"Maybe they’ll have two more children?"
"That would be big news, a national celebration."
"Dr. Shelby has a great persona too; there must be some misunderstanding here," someone still held hope, "He’s handsome and talented; how could he possibly be unfaithful?"
"Damn it!!"
Suddenly, the girl with the camera screamed, "..."
"What’s wrong?" All eyes turned to her.
"I only captured the earlier part, and failed to get the girl walking with Dr. Shelby by the roadside. There’s not a single photo of her! What happened?" she wondered herself.
Silence fell in the car for a few seconds.
"What happened to you?" someone regretted, "You have to send it out with a comparison to make the headlines! Such explosive news tonight! Do you think you’ll get another shot?"
"I’m sorry..."
The reporter was utterly frustrated, having never faced this problem in all these years of work.
"So, how should we write tomorrow’s news?" someone whispered.
"First, find out who this woman is. We got the license plate, right?"
"Yes, we got the plate."
"The woman Dr. Shelby stayed with overnight could still boost the traffic!"
"..."
Nightfall.
In the Morgan family’s villa, in a cozy bedroom on the second floor.
The main light was off.
Jocelyn Morgan, wearing a pink nightgown, was applying a face mask. She sat at her desk, the open laptop displaying a novel editing page.
After having dinner and a walk with Ian Shelby, she felt full of happiness and energy.
Even though he wasn’t by her side, the air still felt sweet.
The scenes she wrote were especially vivid, with every word radiating the sweetness and fulfillment of love.
That night, she was so inspired, ideas flowed like a spring.
In one go, she wrote five thousand words and generously updated them for her readers.
The song "Give You, Give Me" by Mao Buyi played in her headphones, her delicate white hands tapping the keyboard like playing the piano, she was in an exceptionally good state...
"For you, my unwavering long and enduring, For me, your hand still tightly held years later..."
Night, getting deeper.
In Ian Shelby’s villa, he wore sterile clothing, working alone in the third-floor laboratory, deeply focused on developing a new drug.
Words like gentle and elegant describe him perfectly.
Courteous, calm, professional.
Vera Ford was in the guest room on the second floor, with the door closed and not daring to turn on the light.
She stood by the window for a long time, staring at the two cars in the yard.
Her mind filled with memories from a while ago, living here, every day was enjoyable.
Why did Ian start disliking her as soon as Jocelyn got involved?
Despite the large villa, he still asked her to go rent a place.
Vera attributed all the bad emotions to Jocelyn Morgan; it was her appearance that changed everything.
Vera didn’t consider what the morning would bring. She had an obsession in her heart: she wouldn’t leave tonight!
She wanted to stay, to sleep here!
To be a little closer to him!
So, you see, sometimes loving someone makes you lose reason, and even if the situation becomes uncontrollable, you act without regard for the consequences.
Early the next morning.
Ian Shelby didn’t need an alarm clock, waking up promptly at six.
He opened his eyes in bed, picked up the remote, pressed a button, and the heavy curtains slowly opened.
Rising to change out of his pajamas, glancing out the window unintentionally, he noticed two cars in the yard, his fingers paused on the shirt buttons, his eyes narrowing slightly.
From the car spacing, he judged that the car was parked last night.
The aura radiating from his eyes was rare and frightening!
