Chapter: Chapter 43. Agreement With Mrs. Veronica
Veronica looked at her in disgust. She doesn't like her! Jenna's appearance actually looks like a brave girl, but now she bows her head and looks submissive. This girl looks like someone who is dependent on others. Veronica thought she was seducing Sean in this way and also gaining Esther's sympathy."Do your parents know that you are someone's mistress?" Veronica asked.Jenna shivered and looked at her. She hadn't expected Veronica to ask such a question as soon as she arrived. She wanted to say that she was not such a woman, but she was indeed a mistress. How could she deny it? "My parents are dead.""Oh, that's appropriate." Veronica sneered at her. "Tell me. What mother could accept her son being with a cheap woman? This will destroy my son's reputation. You must have approached my son because Sean is handsome and wealthy, right? So, how much money do you want for you to leave him? How much will he pay you? I'll give you the money and you have to leave! This is not a request, thi

Chapter: Chapter 42. Sean's Mother
Esther wanted to go to her room, but as she turned to go upstairs, she saw Veronica coming through the door. "Mom?"Veronica looked at her: "Where's your brother?"Esther saw that there was something wrong with the look on his face, so she quickly caught up with him and asked in a low voice, "Sean too busy working lately. He rarely even comes home. Mom, why did you come?"Veronica was furious when she heard this. She turned around and growled, "How long have you been hiding this from me? Do you still consider me a mother? Why would you hide such a big problem behind my back?"Esther was stunned for a moment, realizing that it seemed like her mother had found out about Jenna, so she quickly backtracked: "I didn't mean that... Sean..." She was at a loss for words and didn't know how to say it."Now stay out of this, because I want to talk to your brother." Veronica pushed her. She thought Esther was lying that Sean wasn't home.Esther looked at her awkwardly, hesitated for a moment, the

Chapter: Chapter 41. Pregnant
After returning home, Sean went to his study as usual, and soon Esther came and entered, then went straight to him. "Sean..." She called earnestly."I'm busy," Sean said.Esther was stunned for a moment, then slowly pulled out a chair and sat down very gracefully with her hands folded on her knees.This man would definitely continue to control Jenna like a puppet, right? She had to find a way to brainwash his and tell him that it would kill a girl's feelings and make her unhappy!"Where did Jenna go? She hasn't been back here since my birthday, has she?" she asked, not caring even though Sean didn't seem to want to talk."Her aunt is sick, she's staying there to take care of her," Sean replied briefly."Look, I'm here because I want to help you!" Ester leaned forward a little and sat on the table in front of her brother."Help about what?""You also know she's lying. Her aunt isn't sick, is she?"Sean was stunned. "Have you checked?"Esther shrugged. "I thought you guys had broken up

Chapter: Chapter 40. He's Too Busy
Hours later, Jenna was hungry and crawled out of Sean’s arms, but he held her tighter: “Where are you going?”“It’s noon, I’m going to cook.”“Hmm.” Sean let go of her, and when he saw that she was wearing clothes with her back to him, he leaned over and said, “Make some food for me, too.”“Sure.” Jenna agreed, put on her clothes and left without seeing him.While Jenna was cooking, Sean suddenly walked into the kitchen and Jenna was so panicked that she immediately pushed him out: “Why are you here?”“What are you doing?” Sean asked confused, “Did you hide a man in the gas stove?”“Nonsense!” Jenna said, “You’d better wait at the dining table, I’ll bring your food in a minute.”“Okay.” Sean turned and walked to the dining table outside the kitchen.A few minutes later, Sean frowned when he saw that there were only vegetables on the table in front of him.Jenna said shyly. “Sorry, there’s no good food in this house and I’m not very good at cooking either.”“That’s okay.” Sean smiled a

Chapter: Chapter 39. She Misses Him
That day, Jenna helps Sean channel his passion without actually having sex.Sean left for Japan right after that, and Jenna rested for two days without the man who kept bothering her. There was a twinge of longing in her heart, but also a sense of relief that she could relax a little.On the fourth day, Sean came as she had expected, this time in the morning.Jenna kept all the complaints in her heart, then respectfully invited him in and served him tea.Ignoring the tea, Sean hugged her and asked, “Is your wound healed?”Jenna rolled her eyes. “Not bad...”“Let me see.” Sean hugged her tightly and immediately put his hand inside Jenna’s panties.“Should you have done that when you first got here?” Jenna said a little angrily.Sean was stunned and said, “If I don’t do this, how can I talk to you about love?”Jenna was silent. What did he mean by the word “love”? Oh, maybe he meant “making love”? “It’s okay. Let’s stop and talk about something else.” He pulled Jenna’s hand away and lo

Chapter: Chapter 38. Help Him in Other Ways
“I have to use it inside as well.” Sean said in a soothing tone, “Be good, relax and don’t make a sound, otherwise I can’t guarantee I won’t react.”Jenna blinked, wondering how he could possibly see her little thoughts?Not wanting to get too involved, Sean quickly applied the ointment and checked her insides. So tight... He hoped he could keep it in.Jenna tried to remain silent and thought about what Sean had just said. She admitted that whether she liked it or not, except for the first few times, she had wanted him and couldn’t stop.This feeling was very frightening. Even though she hated him so much, she was still immersed in the passion and lust he caused. She was really afraid that as time went by she would not be herself anymore and fall too deeply in love with him.As Sean’s fingers moved in and out, she suddenly moaned. Sean suddenly looked at her and saw that she was frowning uncomfortably.It must be because it hurts, right? Or does she like it?Sure enough, Jenna said,

My Cruel Ex-husband Wants to Reconcile with Me

My Cruel Ex-husband Wants to Reconcile with Me

Claire loves her husband, Jason, so much that she thinks he will fall in love with her if she is a good wife. But to Jason, Claire was just a scheming woman who tricked him into marrying her. Jason continued to date Alice despite his mother's disapproval, and he even kicked Claire out and divorced her after his mother's death. Claire's love burned out because of her jealousy of Alice, and Jason even accused her of deliberately killing his mother. But one day... Jason came to Claire and apologized. The man who had been cruel and indifferent to her suddenly became gentle and kind! He even knelt at her feet in front of everyone and promised: "Claire, it turns out that I have been loving the wrong person all this time. In the future, I want to spend the rest of my life with you, please forgive me. But Claire was no longer the woman who humbly loved him, because he had killed that stupid woman after divorcing her.

Chapter: Chapter 47. Not The Same Pasta
Jason immediately signaled his servant not to make a sound, but Claire woke up anyway. She sat up half-conscious and didn't notice that Jason was holding her hand. She asked Jason curiously, "What's wrong?" Jason pulled his hand away from Claire and looked away, "Nothing." Claire looked at her own hand, then at Jason's cold expression, then stood up, "Hey, listen, it's not me holding your hand, it's you. You think of me as Alice again." Jason was not satisfied with her explanation. He snorted, but didn't speak, and Claire didn't want to explain any more. Looking toward the door, Claire noticed that the waiter had just put breakfast on the coffee table, and she suddenly felt very hungry and wanted breakfast. "I'll change the bandage after breakfast," she said, then took Jason's breakfast and put it on the nightstand while she ate it on the coffee table. Jason looked at the breakfast, which was the same every day, and thought about the pasta Claire had made for Theo yesterda

Chapter: Chapter 46. Always Like This
"Where are the maids at home? Why did you make the noodles?"Claire scoffed. "I didn't bother calling the maid, it was easy anyway."Jason narrowed his eyes. "You can't seduce Theo, he already has a girlfriend and he won't love you."Claire laughed affectionately, and her hands gripped the newspaper as tightly as if she were squeezing the neck of the man in front of her.Why did he think she was seducing Theo? It was just a plate of pasta.Thinking that her priority now was to treat her wound, Claire didn't want to engage him, but to Jason, her silence seemed like consent.Jason's tone became worse, "You should listen to my advice, he loves someone and he would do anything for this woman, then you won't be able to get close to him. So you better give up."Claire was silent, holding back her anger, but all she could do was roll her eyes uncontrollably while maintaining her silence.Sometimes this man's imagination really was as big as the universe.Claire threw down the newspaper and w

Chapter: Chapter 45. Special Pasta
Jason unconsciously raised his hand to touch Claire's head, but he suddenly realized that Theo was standing at the door, and the man was so startled that he reflexively pushed Claire's head away from him.Claire, who had been concentrating on applying the medicine, fell to the bed in a daze. "What the hell?" she asked irritably, holding her head as she tried to get up."Looks like I came at a bad time." Theo, who was standing in the doorway, saw the incident and couldn't help but laugh."At least close the door!" Jason said to Claire. He really didn't notice that the door to his room was not closed. "And you, couldn't you have knocked before coming in?" he said to Theo.Theo came in with medical equipment: "The door was open, so I didn't have to knock."Jason looked at him angrily. "Who told you to come? I didn't call you today.""She told me to come." Theo pointed at Claire. "She called me last night and said you had a high fever. But I couldn't come last night, so I came today."Cla

Chapter: Chapter 44. I'm Not Giving You Back Your Phone,
Calvin came out of his room, probably because he heard Claire's scream, while the others knew they could not interfere."Dad?" Calvin greeted his father. "What happened? Why is Aunt Claire screaming?""I had a quarrel with her," Jason answered honestly. "You don't want her to leave, do you? So don't try to help her out of the room this time!"Calvin hesitated for a moment before nodding."Good. Go back to your room," his father ordered, and Calvin went back to his room without saying anything more.Claire's screams could no longer be heard as she collapsed exhausted on the floor next to the bed. She hugged herself as she shivered and cried. She looked around. What if there was another fire? What if she couldn't get out of here while the fire consumed the entire building?Just then, someone opened the door and walked in. It was Jason.Claire ran to him immediately. "Jason, please... don't lock me in. Don't keep the door locked. I promise... I'm not going anywhere. I'm not going anywhe

Chapter: Chapter 43. Don't Do This
"I am human too. I can feel pain and sadness," Claire said. It was the first time she had ever broken down and cried in front of Jason and looked so weak.The woman cried like a battered child. "Why are you doing this to me, what have I done wrong?"But Claire was not Alice, and even if she cried with all the sadness she had long harbored, she would not win Jason's heart, because in his eyes, Claire's tears were nothing more than a tool to gain sympathy.Claire looked at his cold and indifferent expression and suddenly realized that her tears were just a joke.She could cry in front of anyone, but not in front of this man.Suddenly, Claire laughed, her tear-stained face smiling brightly. "I almost forgot, you never believed my tears, so it seems my fake crying didn't work on you."Jason's hands slowly tightened at her sides and Claire could clearly feel his anger growing."Even if that's true, do you think I care?" he asked. "Even if you don't want me to touch you while I'm imagining

Chapter: Chapter 42. Don't Want to Be Alice's Shadow
When Jason held her hand, what surprised Claire was that her hand felt very warm. Oh no, it was not just warm, his body temperature was extremely hot and definitely abnormal."Jason..." She looked intently at the man on the bed again, and only then did she notice the unnatural flush in his cheeks.Jason probably had a fever.With that thought, Claire used her other hand to check his forehead.When she did, she pulled her hand back in surprise.His fever was very high."Don't leave me. Don't go." Jason muttered as he pulled Claire's hand tightly, repeating the words over and over.He must have thought that she was Alice.Claire tried to pull her hand away, but Jason's grip was so strong that her struggle was futile.She happened to see his cell phone on the nightstand, and with great difficulty she tried to grab it, then used Jason's index finger to unlock it, then found Theo's number and called him.No one answered the first time, so she tried again.It was after midnight and she didn
