Chapter 444: Chapter 444: Returning Early (4)

"If you don’t answer, I’ll kiss you." Bryan Hawkins playfully threatened.

"I’m a person who works night shifts, and when I’m on a night shift, I can’t get up in the morning. We’ll talk about it after my work schedule is settled." Being a nurse, she wouldn’t be free from night shifts until she was at least forty-five years old. By that time, she might not even need to wake up and exercise, and her needs might be reduced to nothing.

"Alright, let’s agree that we’ll exercise every day for our frequency issue." Bryan Hawkins also felt that it didn’t seem quite right, so he went back to the frequency issue he had raised earlier.

"I’m so tired, and I have to work tomorrow. Can you stop bothering me? I’ll be on the morning shift tomorrow. Set the alarm for six-thirty and go to sleep quickly." Carolline Ruiz wailed before closing her eyes and turning away, completely ignoring him.

Bryan Hawkins saw that Carolline Ruiz was genuinely tired, with her eyelids tightly closed and her breathing soon evening out.

Chuckling softly, Bryan Hawkins reached under her neck, set the alarm clock for six-forty, and then turned around to hug the now back-facing Carolline Ruiz. Closing his eyes, he prepared to sleep as well.

However, at this moment, his phone received a message. Bryan Hawkins didn’t want to look at it but was afraid that if he didn’t, the sender might call him. So, he carefully got up and went to his desk to pick up the phone.

The message was from Phoebe Miller. Over the years, she had kept the same mobile number for him, and although he had changed his number, they were alumni. She was two years his junior, so they had many mutual acquaintances, making it easy for her to find his contact information if she needed it.

Moreover, their breakup years ago had been a peaceful one, with no particularly significant conflicts or unspeakable issues. In the past, he had used her as a cover to deter the Lopez Family’s attentions, essentially owing her a favor. However, this was the first time he had received a message from her in all these years.

He knew she had been busy in recent years, and her charity work had grown substantially. It wasn’t just limited to charity work; she even involved her family members in her efforts.

The content of the message was simple: this Friday, she would be holding a charity banquet in G City. As G City’s wealthiest businessman, she hoped he would support her event held under the Miller Family name – the first charity banquet they had ever organized in G City.

Bryan Hawkins replied with one word: "Okay."

Over the past couple of years, he had been involved in various charity events. Last time Carolline Ruiz had gone to a village for medical support, he had sponsored two schools under the name ’Zixin’ and later helped with infrastructure development to bring the internet to the village.

He had never mentioned any of this to Carolline Ruiz.

After replying to the message and waiting for two minutes without a response, Bryan Hawkins turned off his phone and went back to bed to sleep.

——Dividing line——

One day, when Celia Wade returned from work, she found Daisy Willow packing her things.

They had lived together for two or three days, and she ate Daisy Willow’s food every day. Though it was a short time, she had completely adapted to the lovely mother-daughter pair.

With the beautiful mom and the adorable Elena Duncan, plus the incredibly delicious dinner made by Daisy Willow every night, her life felt perfect.

"Daisy Willow, what are you doing? Are you not comfortable living here? Why do you want to move?" Celia Wade couldn’t help but ask as she watched Daisy Willow lock up her luggage.

When she had moved in, Celia had chosen the slightly larger room next to the master bedroom. Now that Daisy Willow and her daughter were here, they could occupy the master bedroom.
