Chapter 310 Do You Know Who We Are

A deep frown appeared on Desi’s chubby face.

Eil caressed her head. “I know you miss Mommy, and I do too, but we have to be good kids, okay?”

She nodded obediently.

He smiled faintly at his younger sister. “That’s a good girl. Go ahead and play on your own, then.”

“Aren’t you going to play with me?” Desi blinked.

As he thought of Desi’s toys, which were too childish for him, Eil replied, “Next time, maybe.”

“I’ll go and play with Snowy, then.” At the mention of the word “play,” Desi stopped dwelling on her mother.

The little boy watched as his sister hurried down the stairs and smiled to himself.

She’s truly such a child.

He had forgotten about the fact that he himself was a child too.

Then, he turned to look at Gizem’s information that was displayed on his laptop screen and felt that the woman was quite suspicious.

As the doctor was responsible for treating his sister, he thought it was necessary to inform Samuel about it.

When Yareli returned to the Yoeger residence, she sneakily gave Vanessa a call.

“Mom, a woman named Gizem Zabinski abruptly popped up. I think she’s interested in Samuel,” said Yareli, worried.

Vanessa furrowed her brows. “Don’t be paranoid. You have the female lovebug in your body now. Samuel won’t do anything to you.”

“But Mom, didn’t Lauren say that as long as I have the female lovebug, Samuel would definitely fall in love with me? It’s been five years now! Why hasn’t he fallen in love with me yet?” Yareli was beyond anxious.

“I’ve asked Lauren too. She said it’s probably because the male lovebug is hibernating after Samuel suffered from excessive blood loss last time. Just be patient and wait, okay?”

“I can’t wait any longer. Mom, please help me think of a way,” Yareli pleaded out of frustration.

“All right. I’ll ask Lauren to go and give Samuel a checkup.” Vanessa heaved a sigh.

“Okay.” Yareli nodded.

“Remember, Samuel hasn’t met Lauren before, so you must not let him know anything. Otherwise, all our efforts will go down the drain,” reminded Vanessa.

“Mm. I know.” Yareli ended the call.

After taking a deep breath, she was still unable to relax.

She was thinking about investigating Gizem’s identity.

I also have to do something about those two little b*stards by Samuel’s side. They won’t stop opposing me, and it’s annoying. If I don’t come up with a way to deal with them, things will be difficult for me after I get married to Samuel. If worse comes to worst, I’d just have to kill them and end everything. Samuel won’t do anything to me, anyway. I refuse to believe that he would want to die.

On the other side, Gizem prepared to return home after seeing her last patient.

Right then, the door of her office was pushed open by someone.

A golden-haired man came walking in with a large bouquet of red roses.

“Babe.” A charming smile spread across the man’s face.

“Levi, why are you here?” Gizem was taken aback.

The man, Levi, remained smiling. “My father handed the business in Chanaea over to me. There’s an important banquet tonight. May I have the pleasure of inviting you, my partner, to come along with me?”

Gizem accepted the bouquet. “I’m not your partner; my master is.”

“The old man handed over all the business in Chanaea to you, so technically, you are my partner. I need to meet another business partner at the banquet later, so please help me.”

“All right. Let’s go.” Gizem picked up her luxury handbag, which was placed on the side.

Levi was overjoyed when she agreed.

They stepped out of the hospital together, and the man said, “Let me bring you to pick a gown first.”

She nodded. “Okay.”

He brought her to a haute couture dress store.

As soon as they entered, he flashed his black card to the staff members, who expressed obvious enthusiasm upon seeing that he was a VVIP.

Gizem uttered indifferently, “I didn’t expect you to be a VIP of this store. Looks like you often buy dresses for women, huh?”

Levi laughed. “Are you jealous?”

She was speechless. “No. Why do you say so? I’m merely teasing you.”

He put on an unfathomable smile. “Don’t you like me?”

“You’re not my type.” She glanced at him somewhat wryly.

“Does that mean you’re still interested in dating? I’ve always thought you’re uninterested in getting into a relationship and getting married. After all, it looks like you won’t fall for any man.”

She gazed emotionlessly at him. “I’m just not interested. Getting into a relationship is a waste of time, after all.”

He flashed her a half-smile. “How nice it would be to become your boyfriend. I won’t have to worry about you clinging to me and annoying me all day. Actually, we share the same opinion. What do you say the two of us give it a try?”

She replied coldly, “Not interested.”

Levi didn’t continue the conversation. Instead, he took a burgundy gown beside him and grinned, saying, “This suits you.”

He was well aware of the fact that Gizem loved the color burgundy.

Actually, not even Gizem knew why she loved that color.

She would usually have dreams whenever she was asleep, and in those dreams, she would always see scenes that consisted of the color red.

Whenever she had such dreams, a sense of inexplicable sorrow and anxiety would surge within her chest.

Even so, she would still subconsciously purchase some things that were red in color.

“Yeah. Thanks.” Gizem took the red dress and headed toward the fitting room.

Levi’s phone happened to ring, so he went out to answer the call.

Just then, a mother-daughter duo stepped into the store.

“Mom, I heard that Samuel will be attending the banquet tonight. In order to meet him, I have to look my best!” said Joanna Hurst in excitement.

Her mother, Carrie, was happy to hear that. “That’s great! Ever since our family started having business dealings with the Macaris, your dad has been coming up with ways to make them our long-term business partner. If you’re really able to get acquainted with Samuel, your dad would definitely be impressed!”

Joanna bobbed her head. “Don’t worry, Mom. I’ll make you proud. I won’t let anyone look down on you ever again.”

Carrie nodded in satisfaction.

As a mistress who married into the family, she was used to being detested and jeered at by all the other noble women.

If her daughter Joanna could rise to success, her life would finally change for the better.

Joanna looked around the shop for a while before questioning the staff member unhappily, “Where’s the dress that I’ve reserved?”

The staff member explained awkwardly, “Ms. Hurst, you didn’t tell us to reserve it when you left just now.”

“What! Do you want to lose your job?” Joanna blew her top.

The staff member was at a loss for words.

“Listen up. I reserved that dress for the sake of meeting Samuel Macari. Just you wait. I’m going to tell him and let him deal with you!” Joanna glared angrily at the staff member.

As the staff member blanched, Gizem came walking out of the fitting room.

Her figure was slender, and the burgundy dress further accentuated her fair skin, making her look like she was glowing.

It was as if the scene was straight out of a fairy tale.

Joanna was instantaneously enraged. “Why are you wearing my dress? Take it off right now!”

Gizem shot the woman a cold glare and asked apathetically, “This is yours? Is your name written on it?”

“I had my eyes on this dress first! Take it off!”

“This dress is indeed my daughter’s. You better take it off right away. Also, do you know who we are?” Carrie was displeased as well.
