Orianna's gaze passed through the lobby on the first floor, over the swimming pool, and fell on the rough sea outside the iron fence.
She suddenly curled her lips.

Cecilio handed the things to Edward.
Edward checked the goods and made sure they were indeed pure. He raised his head and glanced at the two tall men behind Cecilio.
Cecilio noticed Edward's look and waved to Carl and the others, "Go down and wait for me."
The two of them went downstairs quietly.
When they got downstairs, the man named Mond took out two cigarettes, handed one to Carl, and chewed the other himself.
After feeling around in his pants and not finding a lighter, Mond raised his chin towards Carl and said, "Give me a light."
Carl searched every pocket on his body and finally said, "No."
"What's going on? The old smoker doesn't have a lighter!" Mond muttered something and said, "I'll go get a lighter."
Mond ran to other colleagues to ask for a lighter, leaving Carl standing alone in the yard on the first floor.
He turned and stared at the light that was on on the second floor of the house next door.
Carl walked to a tree, reached out, picked a green leaf and put it on the ground.
After breaking off a sisal thorn, Carl squatted down and used his left hand to pinch the boring thorn stuck on the leaf and pricked it again and again.
Mond came back with a lighter and saw Carl squatting under a tree, playing with leaves out of boredom. He walked over, squatted down, and helped Carl light the cigarette.
Carl bit the cigarette and took a drag.
Mond stared at the tiny pinholes scattered on the leaves and said, "Was that chick hot last night?"
Carl texted him last night saying he met a hot chick and was going to spend the night on the beach and wouldn't be back.
Mond winked at Carl and asked, "How is it? How spicy is it?"
Carl dropped the sharp thorn in his hand, picked up the leaf and turned it casually, as if he didn't want to say more.
Mond bumped Carl's shoulder again, "Why, you're still reluctant to share it with me?"
Karl then said: "It's spicy. I feel hot all over when I think about it."
“Wow!”
Mond said, "Is she as hot as our boss's ex-girlfriend?"
Carl: “Different types.”
"That's true."
Downstairs, two bodyguards were chatting about romantic and ambiguous things.
Upstairs, Edward sent away the strangers and asked Cecilio, "Have you seen Orianna?"
"I met him downstairs."
Nodding, Edward said, "Oliana told me today that her research was successful."
Cecilio was a little surprised.
When they met outside the house before, Orianna said that the research had failed.
Did she lie?
"Tomorrow, the baby will be born." Edward told Cecilio: "I will go to see the baby tomorrow. Do you want to go with me?"
Cecilio shook his head on the spot, "No."
Staring at his father's excited face, risking Edward's anger, Cecilio poured a basin of cold water on Edward's head: "Father, that woman is dead."
After this basin of cold water was poured down, the excitement on Edward's face faded a little.
He looked at Cecilio with gloomy eyes, "What do you want to say?"
Cecilio felt Edward's anger and knew that if he continued speaking, it would most likely trigger Edward's murderous intent.
But there are some things that, as a son, Cecilio must say.
"No matter how much the unborn child resembles that woman, she is still a separate individual. Even though they share the same DNA and look the same, that child is not her."
"After birth, as she grows older, she develops her own consciousness and becomes the master of her own soul."
"Father, you know in your heart that the child is just a substitute, a false imitation."
"She doesn't even have any memory of Jiang Shiyu!"
When you fall in love with someone, you love his or her soul.
If that person has lost her soul and is just a facade, will you still love her?
Cecilio's words were like a hammer hitting Edward's chest, shattering his hopes and enthusiasm.
Edward's expression darkened, and his tone became dangerous and threatening. "Cecilio, are you teaching me a lesson?"
Of the four children, Cecilio is the bravest.
Even though he knew he had successfully displeased his father, Cecilio remained unyielding. "Advice is hard to hear, and it's better to take it or not. Don't try to get yourself killed!"
You deserve it!
Cecilio got up and left.
Edward stared at the boy's back as he left, feeling a little annoyed but also proud.
That's why he liked Cecilio.
Cecilio is the sobering agent. When everyone is flattering Edward, only Cecilio will calmly point out his faults.
He always managed to pull Edward back to the world before he went to hell.
The next morning, Edward got up early and went to the island research institute with Orianna to visit the unborn baby.
Every day, Freya feeds COCO.
Two meals a day should be fed on time.
One meal at 8:30 in the morning and one at 6:30 in the evening.
COCO eats a strong sheep or a 200-pound pig every day.
If you are not rich, you really can’t afford to support COCO.
Song Ci took the new message in a bottle and went to the iron fence with Freya.
She wasn't sure if the message in the bottle would be found, but Song Ci wouldn't give up easily. She insisted on throwing two bottles every day, and there would always be a few that would be washed away by the sea to other islands.
