Chapter 12 Chapter Twelve

She changed her clothes and walked to Lan'er's room.Riding in the sun would do them both good.Fei Cui opened the door and found Lan Er half leaning on the edge of the bed in frustration, vomiting into the chamber pot. God, no.Emerald murmured softly. Lan'er raised her eyes in horror.I must have had a bad stomach. Lan'er, Jadeite said softly.There's no need to pretend to me.You are probably pregnant.I know about morning sickness, and I'm pregnant too.The sea calmed down, the wind died down, and the autumn sun reappeared.Although Jade doesn't think God has answered her prayers, she does thank God reverently as she sips Dana's morning sickness concoction.

God, what am I going to do? The first is to stop your vomiting.I went to Dana to get the medicine. no, you can not!Laner yelled in panic. She knew about me, but she didn't die of shock. Oh Emerald, this is different.Laner groaned. I'll get you some of my chamomile and rose water first.I will be right back. When Lan Er's vomiting finally stopped, Fei Cui wiped her face and hands for her. I don't want Dana to know.She'll tell my mother, and I'll shame her to shame. Who is your mother?Fei Cui asked, embarrassed that she couldn't figure out all the Fei family members.

Fermage. God.Fei Cui said, knowing that this kind woman has extremely high moral requirements. I'm sorry you're in trouble too, Emerald, but no one dares to provoke the Earl, or say a word of criticism to you. You should have heard what the priest said about me yesterday when he didn't even know I was pregnant.In his and God's eyes, I am a whore!Neither you nor Luo Lin are married yet, so the crime you committed should not be as serious as mine. Theon glad you're pregnant? Emerald thought about it.I have no idea.The only thing that was certain was that he wasn't ecstatic.He refused to believe it until last week at Mammoth.

Men are really interesting, Laner murmured.Luo Lin would not believe me either.We only did it once and he would be very angry. Damn it, Lan'er, you should be angry with Luo Lin!Lan'er, the Fei family will find out sooner or later.You can't hide for too long. can i stay here Sure, but Sith would find out. God, he'd be furious! Emerald silently agreed in her heart. Please don't tell him?Laner begged. I won't tell him. Don't tell Luo Lin either? I won't, Laner, but you should tell him.He must marry you -- as soon as possible. Isn't that awesome? The Fei family might not agree.They hate the British - especially the Mons.

Lan'er frowned and thought.If the earl agreed, they would not object.Jade, can you try to convince him when he comes back?Don't mention the baby, just say your brother should marry a Fei family.You can subtly hint at this idea and get him to accept it. Emerald turned her eyes to the sky.God, Lan'er doesn't know how stubborn Xi En is, it's hard to persuade!do you feel betterI'm going to Dana to get some of her magic potion, but I won't reveal that I'm asking for two, Jade understands they can't ride horses this morning.I want you to stay in bed and get some rest.I'll take a book and read it to Raymond.Dana would stay there and listen.

When Jade arrived at the tower, Dana had just massaged Raymond's limbs with ointment.Raymond's binoculars rested on the window frame, looking contented and relaxed. I'm here to read to you.I hope you enjoy this one better than the last one I read. What's the title, beauty?he asked eagerly. Travels of Marco Polo. Just enough to whet my appetite for travel. Jade sat next to him and soon became as obsessed as he was.She read for about two hours straight.Finally she closed the book. My throat is terribly dry. Dana, pour us a drink! Dana pours Raymond whiskey, but what she and Jade drink tastes like pears.

It tastes so good.Did you brew it yourself, Dana? certainly.I spent hours in the still, in communion with nature. Jade sipped her pear wine and chatted: I didn't know Lan'er was Maggie's daughter. Raymond chuckled lightly.Maggie has always been the most stuffy and conservative.She would never approve of you making wine from pears. Wouldn't approve of you making whiskey either, Dana agreed.It's her turn to stay for a month next month. Raymond's smile faded.Why do women love to deprive men of the fun in life? Jade stood up and shook his hand lightly.Not all women, Raymond, she took his binoculars and brought them to her eyes.Some of us know the joys of life well enough, she gasped, unable to believe what she was seeing.She switched the binoculars to the other eye to make sure she was seeing the right thing.He is back!Theon is back!She handed the binoculars to Raymond, lifted her skirt and started running.

I bet my son knows all about the joys of life! Emerald ran down the stairs, out the gate, and ran to Gerwystone's port.Panting, she stopped and watched the Hellfire moored by the pier.She searched the deck for Theon's tall figure.He was dressed in black and stood at the wheel.Jade waved at him desperately, and he raised his hand in response. Jade couldn't wait to run down the steps of the pier.Theon, too, had disembarked, striding towards her.She called out his name happily.Sean The next moment she was in his powerful arms.She lifted her head to accept his kiss. Oh I miss you I love you I miss you so much.She said between countless kisses.

Theon held her high and twirled her around.I should have left more often - if such a warm welcome awaited my return home. She tugged at his black hair in feigned anger.I'll chain you to the bed, you wandering devil!As soon as the words came out, she wished she could cut off her own tongue!How could she remind him of the days when he lived in chains!God, I'm so sorry!She frantically kisses his face, apologizing for her careless words. Theon cupped her face and looked into her eyes.No need to choose your words carefully in front of me, Jade.I hope you know you can tell me anything, he grinned.If you talk too much, I'll just throw you on my knees and spank your ass.

You dare not be cruel to me in my current situation.She was playfully provocative. He looked down at her and shook his head.You are still so slender.I expected you to look like a little pudding.He picked her up again. You devil, put me down! I brought you a present.he whispered. She reached inside his black leather jacket, trying to find what he was hiding.He whispered into her ear.Lower, she gasped, seeing the protrusion of his crotch.Arrogant devil! I'm kidding you, another gift.He stepped aside so she could get a better view of the people on board. Jade's smiling eyes left him, browsing the boat.Her gaze stopped at the elegant woman with amber hair standing leaning against the railing.Fei Cui covered her throat with her hand, her body didn't move, as if she saw a ghost.Then she started shaking violently.is it possible?Or was it her imagination at work?Mother?She whispered, and her feet moved involuntarily, toward the boat.

Amber saw her daughter walking towards her and stepping off the boat. Jade's steps quickened until they faced each other.Her green eyes searched her mother's and filled with tears.For a long time, neither of them could speak, they could only express their love in the hug and shed tears of joy. Jade looked at Theon with tears in her smile.how did you find her I live in Wicklow.Amber spoke quickly, pointing to the south of the purple mountain. Jade wiped away her tears, her heart filled with emotion.She was with the two people she loved the most in the world.She had so many questions to ask, and for the moment she was content to just stare at them. Theon waved them back to the house.Don't worry about luggage.You mother and daughter must have a lot to talk about. They came to the grass.Amber stopped to browse the palace-like and luxurious Georgian mansion. Welcome to Galway Stone.Emerald leads the way into the gorgeous living room.As Emerald first entered the room, Amber sat in the window seat overlooking the garden. I've been to Galwaystone once, but only to the door, and Amber pauses, trying not to be consumed by old wounds.Suddenly none of them spoke -- didn't know what to say.You have become a beautiful, lively woman.I am so afraid that your father will destroy your personality and essence. He succeeded!Emerald shouted.Since the moment you abandoned us, he has tried to make my life as unbearable as Lorin's. My dears, I have not abandoned you.How can you think like that?He almost beat me to death.He swore I would never see you again.He locked me in the room, denied me food and water, and told me to wait for my death. Emerald was terrified.When she recalled the past, it was as clear as yesterday.He told me you ran away with your lover, but I can't believe you left us.I went to your bedroom door is locked and you didn't answer.Mother, I'm so sorry that Luo Lin and I left you there alone There was nothing you could do at the time.Meng William is the embodiment of evil, when he goes crazy - no one can stop him. I thought I couldn't hate him more.But now knowing that he beat you savagely has deepened my hatred.But you're wrong, Mom.There is someone stronger than him.Theon can destroy him, and he's doing it. Suddenly, how terrified Amber is for her daughter, Jade is trapped between two powerful beings, and the only outcome could be her being deeply hurt.She didn't want to frighten her daughter.She has to take her time, subtly warning Jade to guard against Oxion.She was clearly in love with the man. He told me you married Roger Jack? Emerald sighed heavily.It's a long story.After you left us - I mean after we went back to England - my father wouldn't let me go to school.He hired a dreadful governess in order to kill every trace of Irishness in me.He forbade me to say your name and changed the name Fei Cui to Fei Li.In the end they succeeded in making me a stiff Fei Li.They changed everything about me: hairstyle, clothes, conversation and behavior.In the end I became a timid English mouse and hid in the cave of Bowman House. Emerald's body trembled, recalling that dark room.It was like a prison -- no, like a tomb, and I was buried alive in it.I have no suitors, no hope.In the end, my father ordered me to marry Roger. Although I was reluctant, I had to agree, because I had no spirit of resistance. It was Oxion who saved me from that lunatic asylum and the fate of being buried alive!She paused and said. God, no wonder she thinks he's her prince, Amber thought.How do I get her to open her eyes and see that Oxion is just using her?Amber knew she had a tough job ahead of her.Osis is not only dangerously charming -- he's so witty, confident, and manly -- but also ruthless.How can she make Jade see the truth clearly?I couldn't win her trust right away.But if she needs me, I will do my best to help her. While they were chatting, Gwystone's servants made excuses to pass by the living room one after another, witnessing Fei Amber's demeanor, until Katie appeared and sent them away. Jade is happy to see Katie.Come in, Katie.Come see my mother. Katie was naturally curious, and she stepped forward. My mother, Fei Amber Gankatty, Gwystone's housekeeper.She has always been nice to me. The two women looked at each other. It turned out that this was the Fei family girl who married a British nobleman and then regretted it.No wonder Joseph fell in love with her and died for her.She was very beautiful -- Jade had inherited that beauty, but Jade had a sweetness that her mother didn't have. Amber thought: Not only is she smart, she's capable, and she clearly doesn't like me, but that doesn't matter.It's a good thing my daughter has someone like this running the place.Nice to meet you, Mrs. Kimball.Gwystone must have been a huge responsibility. Your daughter has brought sunshine and laughter back into this house - after we were already hopeless. Emerald's face flushed with joy.Katie, you are so sweet. You brought joy to Theon and Raymond.I can't say you replaced Eileen - that wouldn't be possible, but you filled a terrible void in Gwystone. Katie, can you get Laner over here?I want to introduce her to my mother. She hides in her room.I had to pry open the door to pull her out. Forget it, we'll see her at dinner anyway.Dana is here too.do you remember her Katie scoffed.Who can forget her?The place was packed with Fei family.I'll send someone to tidy up the lavender house for your mother. I remember Aunt Dana, and I liked her very much.But Katie doesn't seem to be. They thought she was crazy because she thought she was a Celtic princess, but she wasn't crazy at all, she was very wise. She taught me how to use herbs. She's only been here a week, but has completely taken over the still.Jade really wanted to be able to talk more intimately between the two of them before being interrupted.She wanted to know everything about her mother's life, and since Amber didn't bring it up, she decided to wait until tonight to ask Theon. Come upstairs and take a rest.You have no idea how happy your visit makes me.It would be great if Luo Lin was here too! He came to see you?Amber asked hopefully. He and Theon had formed an alliance.He came here once and wrote to me.But I hope he will visit more often. Amber raised an eyebrow.Did he learn to contend with his father, or did he learn to be obedient and obedient like me? I guess in order to survive, I have to have both.Apparently his father had given up on taking him on a ship, and now he was running his father's shipping business. Well, no wonder Oxion wants to win him over.Amber nodded. Emerald's face flushed red.She wanted to deny that Theon was using Luo Lin, but she couldn't.Lorin loves Ireland very much, especially Mammoth. That was understandable, he had always loved horses.Maybe he belongs there. We can ride there another day.You must want to see the Fei family again. You speak too fast.Mammoth belongs to Lord Guilt now, and maybe he doesn't want me there. Fei Cui flicked her black hair, smiled coquettishly and said: The Earl is obedient to me, he will not refuse any request from me. Don't mistake him for a tame gelding, Emerald.He is a wild, untamed steed, and I doubt you can tame him.Amber warns her. I don't want to tame him, Mother, I want him to be what he is. Be careful what you wish for, Emerald, Amber thought.A wish that comes true can be the worst nightmare. I can't go down to eat, I can't face her!Laner said tragically. It's ridiculous for you to say that.My mother was a gentle, loving person.If she knows that you love Luo Lin, she will like you even more.No one can guess your secret, Laner -- unless you've been hiding in the house! When Jade and Lan'er finally came down to the dining room, Amber and Dana were happily discussing the properties of a certain herb.Theon was waiting for them too.He was a gracious and charming host who, after introducing each other, led everyone to their seats.Hu Po is sitting on his right side, Dana and Lan'er are on his left side, and Fei Cui is opposite to him, so he can just enjoy her beauty. The meal was very pleasant, and the lively conversation never ceased.Lan'er occasionally joined the conversation, but whenever Amber's warm eyes fell on her face, she always blushed. Theon dominates most of the conversation, and he is full of wit and laughter.Jade couldn't seem to take her eyes off him.The snow-white linen scarf at his neckline set off his dark skin and silver eyes.Her body was full of excitement: all she could think in her heart was that after they entered the bedroom door at night, they would be able to pour out their feelings and longings freely. Before the meal was over, Amber saw how much her daughter loved the count.She also saw that Oxion was not indifferent.Those silver eyes burned with a fiery desire for jade, as well as possessiveness.Amber, however, had to suspect that Theon hadn't just taken Jade because he wanted her, fearing he was using her as a tool for revenge. Theon had told her plainly that he would not be satisfied until he disgraced his enemies before the world, and he had that weapon in his hands.Could that be emerald? Amber's gaze was once again drawn to the deep, restrained, enigmatic man at the head of the table.His vengeance can be said to be omnipotent - he calls it justice.She wondered uneasily how unscrupulous he would be.She must have a good talk with Jade.Of course, not tonight.Theon and Jade's longing for each other throbbed through the air like electricity. At first Theon just looked at Jade secretly, and then became blatant.It was right for her to meet her mother.She was so radiant tonight, her face glowing with happiness; it gave him a deep sense of satisfaction to know that he had brought her such happiness. He is good to her.The passionate beauty tonight was nothing like the pale, cowed girl he had taken from London that day.He admits that Jade is also good for him.She gave her love generously and unreservedly, and he knew she had helped him heal some of his more superficial wounds.They are good to each other.He will never regret their time together.That's close to perfect. Amber said something to him, and Theon came back to himself.Sorry, I was just distracted.Their eyes met, revealing their respective thoughts. Sorry, but Dana said she was going to show me the distillery. Dana also spoke.This could take several hours, so let's say goodnight. Lan'er also whispered: I'm going to the library to get a book. Theon smiled nonchalantly at Jade.The women of the Fei family conspired to allow us to be alone! Are we acting that obvious?Amber laughed. It's us.Theon sighed. They climbed the stairs.Theon put his arms around Jade.You look good.Is the malaise still serious, sweetheart? It's been much better.she answered, basking in his tender concern. Emerald walked straight to the window.Thank you dear, thank you for bringing my mother.You make me so happy, I want nothing more!Oh, how happy I am tonight!Just like the ocean. He held her in his arms, enjoying the fullness of it.I thought you were afraid of the sea.he teased. Only when you're at sea—but that's like you've conquered it, come back to me, and I'll never be afraid again, her arms around his neck.When you're with me, there's nothing or anyone in this world that scares me! He leaned over to taste her.That's not because of me, but because you have transformed into a confident woman. He kissed her earlobe, and licked her throat with the tip of his tongue, causing her body to tremble.Before I undress you, let me Mr. Fire.I don't want you to catch a cold. It feels so good to be surrounded by your tender care.I am the luckiest woman in the whole world.Do you miss me? I don't just miss you.I long for you, my blood boils for you.Now it's just the two of us.I want to captivate you with my enthusiasm, he lit the fire, anticipating another fire that was about to be lit.He picked up the jar by the bed.Is this the love potion Dana brewed for you? No, it's made with rose and almond oils to prevent stretch marks and keep my skin beautiful for you. Well it really is the love potion.I'm about to wipe my whole body for you.But let me warn you first, my dear, my hand will steal your sanity.After I'm done, I'll have your body and soul. He strode towards her.She cast him a seductive look from under her eyelashes.Didn't he already own every inch of it, body and soul?He took off her warm woolen coat and let her lie naked on the bed, his deep and passionate eyes moved lazily across her body, caressing and worshiping every inch of her skin.His piercing silver eyes promised her immense pleasure. He poured aromatic oil into his palm, and after warming it by the fire, he began to massage from her throat, down to her chest.The fragrant smell overwhelmed her senses, leaving her limp and weak.He pressed and massaged her shoulders, arms, and double peaks, which made her tremble while holding her breath.His big firm hands covered her breasts, rubbing them in circles. marvelous.Her hands stretched above her head, and the erect buds met his lips bent to hers.She cried out in delighted pleasure as his tongue licked. Theon's hand came to her ribs, and then her soft belly, massaging and kneading, making her moan.His balm-smeared fingers then came to her female part, and after teasing and parting her buds, he poked his fingers in. His slender fingers moved in and out, making her gasp, longing for more, and then he stuck two fingers in.She was so hot, his fingers seemed to plunge into the flames!He guided her to orgasm, his deep silver eyes watching her pleasure, release, and thrilled with the same. Theon poured more oil on her toes, starting with her toes and working her way up.When he reached her silky thighs, Jade was tossing and moaning again.The firelight reflected her skin golden, and he couldn't help lowering his head, pleasing her with his lips. His tongue penetrated, provocatively, with all its pleasure, and her moans turned into screams.She opened herself up to him wildly, every inch of skin and senses in her body were excited to the extreme. She lifted languid, heavy eyelids to see Theon finally undressing him.He knelt naked before her.She reached out eagerly to caress his swollen cock.You loved me twice, why don't you please yourself? You've pleased me twice, he murmured.Seeing you so passionate and knowing I made you this way was the wildest thrill, and he flipped her body over and loved her all over again.His lips traced her spine.You are like warm silk, I have been seeing you in my most beautiful dreams for many years.In the dream, your back is facing me, with black hair like smoke.My beauty, you have the most imaginative back in the world. Theon's hands cupped her back, reaching between her groin, working an unholy miracle.His possessive fingers penetrated her feminine core as she arched her hips. Jade grabbed the pillow with both hands.I need more, Theon.she gasped. I know, I'll give you more.He straddled her back, supported her hips with loving hands, and entered her from behind. Jade had never known that this was possible between a man and a woman, but she knew it was between a horse and a mare when he began to move wildly inside her.This time the feeling was stronger than ever, perhaps because Theon had led her to orgasm the previous two times: his actual entry evoked more intense pleasure and prolonged her orgasm. He held her twin peaks in his hands as if they were the most precious jewels and proof that she was his.When Theon felt her third convulsive shudder grip his cock, he allowed himself to release the little liquid flame inside her.A scream escaped Jade's throat, but it was drowned out by Theon's howl as he released it. Amber knew she had to see Raymond to thank him for helping her in the past, regardless of whether Raymond was happy to see her or not.She asks Burke to take her to the tower. She was startled when she saw Aurémond.Five years ago, he was so handsome, arrogant and full of energy, but now he is like an empty shell.Raymond.She called to him tenderly. Raymond looked at her, struggling emotionally.Fei Amber was a beautiful woman, and Joseph died because he couldn't resist her attraction--no, she couldn't be blamed for that.Amber, like his family, is a victim of Meng William's claws. He pointed to a chair and invited her to sit down. I'm here to thank you for your financial assistance, Raymond.You are so generous to me. His piercing gaze pierced her.I still have Erin and my two sons that night.I have not yet been blackened by hate. Amber resisted the urge to lower her eyelids guiltily.I cannot ask you to forgive me for my role in this tragedy, nor can I forgive myself.All I can do is do my best to repay you. The only way you can repay me is to lure Meng William to Gwystone. Raymond, I want Meng William to die, that is the only revenge that can satisfy me.But I have no influence over that man.He hates me almost as much as I hate him. I doubt.Losing you was perhaps the greatest loss of his pathetic life.You are a woman from the Fei family, no one can compare to you!I know this well because I have been fortunate enough to be married to one.Amber, you have a fatal attraction. This time she lowered her gaze.Her attraction did kill Joseph.She smiled sadly at Raymond.I will repay you when the opportunity arises, Raymond.
