As days passed, Lisa continued to deepen her bond with Ethan and Erica. They settled into a routine, with Lisa becoming an integral part of their lives. She often stayed over at Ethan’s place, helping with household chores and taking care of Erica while Ethan spent time at the hospital.But amidst the growing closeness, Lisa’s anxiety over her mission gnawed at her. She hadn’t updated Dilraba in a while, fearing her reaction to how emotionally involved she had become.One evening, after putting Erica to bed, Lisa stepped out onto the porch to make the call she had been dreading. The phone rang twice before Dilraba’s voice came through, cold and expectant.“What’s the update, Lisa?”Lisa took a deep breath. “I’ve made significant progress. Ethan and Erica trust me completely. Ethan even...” She hesitated, feeling a pang of guilt. “We’re getting very close.”Dilraba’s silence was heavy, laden with unspoken judgment. “Define that your very close, I hope you haven't messed anything up.’”

As dawn broke, Lisa woke to find Ethan still asleep beside her. She quietly slipped out of bed, careful not to wake him. She needed a moment to herself to process everything. She tiptoed down the hallway and checked on Erica, who was still fast asleep, clutching her stuffed animal.Lisa headed to the kitchen, her mind racing. She made a pot of coffee, the aroma filling the quiet house. As she poured herself a cup, her phone buzzed with a message from Dilraba."Any Update? What is the progress?"Lisa sighed, typing out a response. "Spent the night at Ethan's. Getting closer. He opened up more about his feelings and fears. What’s next?"She sipped her coffee, waiting for a reply. When her phone buzzed again, she quickly read the message."Good. Keep the pressure on. Make him dependent on you. Remember, the goal is to have him trust you completely. You must become indispensable to him and Erica, Mara must come back from the hospital to realize that her husband and daughter is no longer h

After Ethan agreed to take a break, Lisa helped him gather his things. Erica, still groggy from the long day, clung to her father's hand as they walked to the car. Lisa settled into the passenger seat while Ethan buckled Erica into her car seat. The drive home was quiet, the tension palpable. Lisa's mind raced with the steps she needed to take next.Once they arrived at Ethan's house, Lisa helped carry Erica inside. The house was warm and inviting, filled with family photos and the lingering scent of Mara's favorite candles. It felt like a sanctuary, but Lisa reminded herself why she was here.Ethan turned to her, gratitude evident in his eyes. "Thank you, Lisa. Really. I don't think I could have managed today without you."Lisa smiled softly. "You're welcome, Ethan. I'm glad I could help. Why don't you take a hot shower and relax a bit? I'll stay with Erica."Ethan hesitated, then nodded. "Okay. I'll be quick."Lisa watched as he headed down the hallway to the bathroom. She took a d

As Ethan left to be with Mara, Lisa's mind churned with conflicting emotions. She needed to stay focused. With Erica still asleep, she took a moment to text Dilraba for guidance."Progress update: Ethan is getting closer. Mara's stable but still critical. What's next?" she typed, sending the message before she could second-guess herself.Moments later, her phone buzzed with a reply. "Good work. Keep deepening the bond with Ethan. Make him rely on you more. Ensure he doubts his ability to cope without you and let him have lesser concerns for Mara, in that way, you will assume to control his heart.."Lisa sighed, slipping her phone back into her pocket. She knew what she had to do.When Ethan returned, his face was a mask of exhaustion. "She's stable for now," he said, his voice hollow. "I just don't know how much more I can take."Lisa reached out, placing a hand on his arm. "You're doing everything you can, Ethan. You need to take care of yourself too. Brooding and stressing yourself

Lisa's heart raced as she watched Roger leave the room. The secret message burned in her mind, a constant reminder of her mission. Get close to Ethan. Now.She took a deep breath, her eyes scanning the hospital room. Ethan was still gone, tending to his wife's crisis. But Lisa knew he would return, and when he did, she would be ready.As she waited, a young girl with big brown eyes and curly hair entered the room, her eyes fixed on Lisa. "Mommy said I could come see you," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.Lisa smiled, her heart melting. "Hey there, Erica. I'm so glad you're here."Erica climbed onto the bed, her eyes fixed on Lisa's face. "Mommy's sick, isn't she?"Lisa nodded, her voice gentle. "Yes, sweetie, she is. But your daddy's taking good care of her."Just then, the door opened, and Ethan walked in, his eyes red-rimmed from fatigue. "Hey, kiddo," he said, scooping up Erica in a big hug. "How's my little girl doing?"Erica wrapped her arms around his neck, her eyes s

Ethan's expression turned guarded, his eyes narrowing slightly. "I don't need anything in return, Lisa. Just focus on getting better."Lisa's smile never wavered. "I'll get better, Ethan. And when I do, I'll make sure to repay your kindness."The silence that followed was palpable, the only sound being the steady beep of the heart monitor. Ethan's gaze lingered on Lisa's face, searching for something - a glimmer of truth, a hint of sincerity. And in that moment, Lisa knew she had him right where she wanted him."I'll hold you to that," Ethan said finally, his voice low and husky.Lisa's heart skipped a beat. "I'm counting on it," she replied, her voice barely above a whisper.The tension between them was grow thick, the air thick with unspoken promises and unmet desires.

Alice asked again, "If you can meet a condition can I still consider divorcing him?""what?""Give me 10 billion. I believe this money should be nothing for the Clinton family. So, if you can give me 10 billion, I will consider divorce.""What are you talking about?" Mrs. Clinton opened her eyes wide, with an incredible expression on her face, only to feel that she had misheard.Alice pursed her lips, smiling and repeating what she had just said.This time, Mrs. Clinton heard clearly.Her face was extremely ugly and displeased, "Alice Clinton you greedy witch, 10 billion? Did you think you worth that much?"Alice narrowed her eyes. Of course, the 10 billion worth nothing much to the Clinton family networth. But she was determined, that if this is what Mrs Clinton wants to hear from her, then she's ready to give her.Mrs Clinton also glared at the lady standing before her with hatred. She wondered what more bad characters she has because her original plan was to give her a few hundred

Back outside in the garden, Mrs Clinton's attitude is very strong.Alice did not give in. She looked at her humbly and wordlessly, repeating what she had said just now "Mom, I still said what I said just now, and I cannot divorce him. Enzo and I love ourselves. There are no emotional issues, no other issues. We get along well and care about each other.""I like to be with him and I want to stay with him for a long time. I really can't agree with your request.""Do you like him?" Mrs Clinton's eyes were full of anger and sneered. "Do you like my son or his money? Don't think I don't know what a woman like you is thinking about. You just want to change your class by getting married, want to sparrow on the branches and change into a phoenix? If he has no money and no power, would you still like him? You have a bit of demeanor in battle, so your face is confused by my son, Coaxing him because you can touch him to pull a marriage certificate with you.""Don't you think you're so shameless?

Back in the house, Enzo didn't go update, he decided to wait for his wife before sleeping, just then, "Enzo."Serena's voice rang at this time.Enzo frowned slightly and turned to look at her.Serena pinched her sleeves and stood up, she gently bit her lip corner "Last time, I am sorry for whatever had happened. I don't have chance to tell you sorry because I'm so ashamed of myself that's why I left for Paris. I'm influenced by Judy Lewiston that sly force, will you forgive me?"Enzo stared at her for a few seconds, his brow furrowed tighter, and his voice was a little cold, "Apologize? Can apology fix what you did? Also, the person you should apologize is not me!"His indifferent attitude made Serena's face a bit ugly.Serena already felt it.Since the last time she left for Paris and came back, Enzo has been very cold to her.Enzo who seems irritated by her presence left angrily. Old Mrs Clinton came into the sitting just in in time, Serena rushed to her. "Grandma, let me help y

Alice gazed at her and couldn't help her footsteps.She hesitated for a few seconds and then whispered, "Mom..."Hearing her name, Mrs Clinton's eyes flashed with disgust, and her lips twitched coldly, reaching for the opposite position and saying, "Come on, let's sit down first."Alice didn't ignore the trace of disgust in Mrs Clinton's eyes.She knew that Mrs. Clinton did not like her.However, such unabashed disgust showed Alice as if it had been stabbed in her heart, which was a bit uncomfortable.But she was still indifferent.She walked across from Mrs. Clinton and sat down. After asking for a cup of coffee with the butler, she turned to look at Mrs Clinton. After hesitating, she decided to ask: "Mom, what did you want to tell me?" Mrs. Clinton took a sip of the coffee in front of her and frowned at it.Presumably, the coffee here doesn't suit her appetite.She took a sip and let go.Although this is a five-star hotel cofee recipe for ordinary people, the consumption and grade

Her face became hotter and hotter, and she looked up at him shyly and angrily.But what she met was the gentle and spoiled gaze of the man. The dark and charming eyes were full of spoiled eyes. When looking at her, her eyes were focused as if everything around him had become the background. Only her alone.The heart was messed up for no reason, beating fast and pounding.On the opposite sofa, Serena looked at this scene, and the jealousy in her eyes came out again.Enzo's tenderness, like a knife, stabbed hard at her heart.She had dreamed that she had n goever treated him so gently.She could see that Enzo really liked Alice.If she had been deceiving herself before, thinking that he would marry Alice for special reasons, it’s good for her, now.Does she deceive herself now?After everything she had done in the past to get Alice off his life but she keeps reappearing one way or the other."Thank you mom." Alice accepted the gift that Enzo's mum had presented her and cleverly thanked

Serena looked at Mrs Clinton's somber face and felt a little bit happy in her heart.As long as Mrs. Clinton does not like Alice, her life at the family will not be too good.She lowered her eyes and pretended to be in contemplation. After waiting a few seconds, she said: "I guess Alice's family background should not be very good. She is afraid that you will not agree with her and Enzo maybe that's why she find everyway to be able to touch him so she became his wife""In this way, even if you object, it's useless.""You mean, she asked Enzo to do this?" Mrs Clinton asked in Surprise.Serena pursed her lips, "I understand Enzo, he is not such a person who does not respect you. This should not be his own idea. He is now spoiling Alice, naturally he is listening to what Alice said."Mrs. Clinton squeezed her fingers angrily: "Is Enzo really serious about her?"All these while, Enzo and Alice were at Grandma's side not hearing any of this. "Aunt, if you were on the scene that day, you w
