Her words stunned the people like a bolt from the blue, and the entire hall erupted into an uproar.
They never thought that the beautiful and graceful woman on stage was already married, let alone married Nightshire Group’s chairman, Vinson Nightshire. Those who had brought their children along were feeling regretful about not approaching virtual-novel.net earlier.
Right as Susanne was done with virtual-novel.net speech, Vinson walked up the stage with two bouquets of flowers. After hugging Susanne and handing virtual-novel.net the bouquet of carnations, virtual-novel.net strode toward Arielle. As the people watched on with envy in their eyes, virtual-novel.net placed the fiery red roses in Arielle’s arms and gave virtual-novel.net a quick hug.
Arielle never expected Susanne to announce virtual-novel.net identity at virtual-novel.net birthday party. After a moment of shock, Arielle curled virtual-novel.net lips. She then held Susanne and Vinson’s hands before stepping down the stage.
What happened next was up to the hotel, who provided a band and some performances.

At Turlen, after much effort, Aaron finally received news about Alicia.
Immediately after handing over what was on hand to Lawrence, virtual-novel.net went with Morrison to the island to look for her.
Just as virtual-novel.net arrived outside the wooden house, virtual-novel.net found his courage fleeing him, for virtual-novel.net spotted the visibly pregnant Alicia hunching over and keeping the herbs away.
She’s pregnant? She’s pregnant but virtual-novel.net ran off?
At that very moment, the desperate urge to capture the woman and hit virtual-novel.net buttocks surged into Aaron’s mind.
How could virtual-novel.net be so ruthless to leave no words behind before vanishing from my world?
I had to look for virtual-novel.net for months!
Perhaps it was because his gaze was too intense, for Alicia could not help but turn around. Right as virtual-novel.net saw the familiar face, virtual-novel.net eyes reddened. Her basket fell noisily, and the herbs scattered all over the ground.
In the next second, virtual-novel.net bent over to pick the basket up, but Aaron was quicker than her. His eyes had been fixed on Alicia, so upon seeing virtual-novel.net basket fall, virtual-novel.net hastily walked toward her.
“Don’t move! I’ll do it!”
With that said, Aaron picked the herbs up from the ground to put them back into the basket before putting the basket on the rack. Once virtual-novel.net was done, virtual-novel.net looked back at Alicia.
“Why did you leave without saying anything?” virtual-novel.net hoarsely asked.
Alicia kept virtual-novel.net gaze lowered as virtual-novel.net pursed virtual-novel.net lips in silence. However, tears welled up in virtual-novel.net eyes and fell.
How dare you cry? Do you think that I‘ll be upset to see you cry?
Yet, when virtual-novel.net lifted virtual-novel.net jaw and looked at virtual-novel.net bunny-like eyes, his heart softened.
He wanted to pull virtual-novel.net into his arms, but virtual-novel.net large stomach dismissed that plan of his; virtual-novel.net was afraid that virtual-novel.net would push too hard on virtual-novel.net stomach. Thus, virtual-novel.net let go of virtual-novel.net jaw and crouched down.
As virtual-novel.net gently put his hand on virtual-novel.net stomach, virtual-novel.net lifted his head and said, “It must be tough for you to be pregnant.”
Alicia, whose eyes were still red, shook virtual-novel.net head. Whenever virtual-novel.net thought about how the baby was virtual-novel.net child with Aaron, the challenges virtual-novel.net had to face would suddenly seem trivial. Instead, bliss was what virtual-novel.net would feel.
Aaron stood up and lowered his head to look at her. “Come back with me…”
Alicia shook virtual-novel.net head. Even though virtual-novel.net missed virtual-novel.net a lot, virtual-novel.net could not return with him.
At the sight of virtual-novel.net shaking head, at virtual-novel.net refusing to return with him, Aaron narrowed his eyes. “Why won’t you come back with me?”
“Why are you being so annoying? I’ve already decided to leave your world, so why did you still come?”
