Carolina also had given birth to a boy who was now more than a year old. All in all, it would suffice to say that the Song family were quite happy at present.
She wasn't the sort of woman who wanted to meddle in her mother's and Daniela's issue. She just wished them nothing but a happy life.
In T Country
Maria was physically exhausted from having worked all day. She went back to the hotel and stepped into her room. The sight she saw astonished her. James was in her room! "Why are you here?"
Her eyes went to the large bouquet of roses on the table. As usual, these were the rarest flowers. She had never seem them before. A smile lit up her face.
He often brought her unique flowers and every bouquet made her heart leap.
It had reached a point where she seriously began to wonder if it was the flowers she admired or the man who gave them to her.
James walked towards her and said, "I missed you."
"How did you know I'm here?" As far as she remembered, she had only told him that she was on a business trip. Details regarding where she would stay never came up.
James pulled her into his arms and kissed her on the lips. "Do you remember the time I went on a business trip?" He had been surprised too when she had come to him.
Back then, Maria had said, "You will know how when you fall in love with someone."
He hadn't known until today.
Smiling at her, he said, "If you really love someone, you will pay special attention to her every move and try every possible means to learn more about her."
Maria had taught him a lot about love. And everything began to make sense now that he was deeply in love with her.
Hearing his words, Maria gave a little chuckle. "Are you leaving your daughter behind and flying all the way here to please me?"
He put his strong arms around her slender waist and said, "Are you happy?"
Maria raised her eyebrows and refused to answer his question. "I'm tired and would love nothing more than a good rest."
"Okay, I'll accompany you."
"Are you here to accompany me to sleep?"
Yes, ma am.
"Okay, in that case, hold me!" She acted like a spoiled child in front of him.
James lifted her up and walked towards the bed. They shared a passionate kiss.
Next day, Maria asked for a favor and James' face turned sulky in an instant.
Maria, who was determined to get what she wanted, held his arm and coaxed, "Please!" "Maria, how could you think of allowing another woman to flirt with me?" She had gone too far this time. He couldn't forgive her.
"Why are you getting so serious? I heard that Ms. Zhang likes your style very much. Can't you sacrifice yourself a little for your wife's company?"
James got rid of her hand and said, "It's an insult to a man!" His voice rose in anger.
"Please don't sound so offended. We are doing it for the sake of my company! It means a lot to me."
Maria was doing this because she had no other choice. According to a source, Ms. Zhang had once said that she was fond of cold and domineering men like James.
Most women preferred cute and obedient men like Ethan. Some also enjoyed the companionship of strong and powerful men like Lawrence. However, Ms. Zhang's preference was James.
Maria contemplated the problem. It seemed harmless to her. After all, Ms. Zhang wasn't going to sleep with James. Instead, she simply admired him. DS Group was going to be listed, and Ms. Zhang was a very important figure.
It wasn't like Maria enjoyed shoving her man towards another woman. She enjoyed the attention he bestowed upon her. He made her feel like a pearl. She lowered her head, slightly disappointed.
It was only now James realized she wanted him to do this for her company's sake. An idea popped into his head. "I could buy DS Group and Fosun Entertainment Group. I can show support that way!" he suggested. He wasn't in favor of her working too hard in the first place. If it weren't for her insistence, he would have helped her manage these two companies.
"No way! DS Group is about to be listed. You know very well how much I have given to bring it to this level. You have also put in lots of efforts. If I sell it at this critical moment, all my efforts will be in vain."
"I don't care!" he spat out.
