Kyle said those words as if he had something to prove.

"What? Noel loves you?" Cordy scoffed. "Noel only loves what I have, and she has to steal everything I want."

"Don't bother trying to drive a wedge between me and Noel-"

"Well then, why are the Sachs standing idly by while Jessop Corp is in crisis? If Noel loves you so much, why doesn't she get them to give you the capital injection you need?" Cordy shot back.

"Your father Simon’s the one who's being too materialistic. Noel even argued with him to try and help me," Kyle retorted.

"Oh? Is that so?" Cordy asked. "And has the outcome changed at all?"

"How could Noel possibly have the power to change Simon's mind?"

"Kyle, I have to say... You wouldn't have fallen into such ruin if you hadn't met Noel in this lifetime."

"Cordy!" Kyle was humiliated by her sarcasm.

"Simon is a man who loves his reputation. While you're engaged to Noel, it’d be impossible for him to reject a request for help from you. Once it gets out that he did

    Cordy felt the pill enter her mouth, but she refused to swallow. It was something Kyle gave her, so it couldn't be anything good.The two of them were in a stalemate for a while.Kyle covered Cordy's nose, and the sudden choking sensation that washed over her forced her to open her mouth. At the same time, Kyle grabbed the mineral water next to her and poured it forcefully into her mouth.Since her nose was covered, she was unable to stop her body's instincts and swallowed the white pill that washed down her throat with the water.The most wicked smile broke out on Kyle's face. "Do you want to know what you just took?"Cordy glared at him with cold, hard eyes.Only hate remained in them."I thought I’d never see any other emotions in your eyes even if you died, you know? Do you know how much I love that look on your face? I was really sick of how indifferent you looked all the time!" Kyle hissed through clenched teeth. "I gave you an aphrodisiac. Soon, you'll feel like dying fro

    Gradually, Cordy's face started to feel hotter, and sweat broke out on her forehead.The drug was kicking in.Kyle kept his eyes on Cordy and watched as her body reacted with satisfaction."It's really kicking in fast, huh?" Kyle said. "You have such a sensitive body."Cordy's vision began to blur no matter how hard she tried to resist the feeling. Her struggles were to no avail.Such a depressing thought could wear out a person's mind, and she couldn't help but recall back to when she was eighteen years old. At that time, she repeatedly begged to be let go but was refused again and again, which drove her crazy.However, there was no need to recall what she felt back then.After all, she was going to experience it once again."Let me go..." Cordy said, clearly using up all the strength she could muster as she tried to catch her breath. "I promise I'll work with Jessop Corp.""Do you think I'd believe you?""I always keep my word.""But I don't think I care about that right n

    Perhaps some people were destined for misfortune.When Cordy was young, she lost her mother, and her father remarried. The stepdaughter he gained from the new marriage was always working against her, and everyone in the house also helped with said stepdaughter’s schemes. When Cordy grew up, she had excellent grades and outstanding capabilities. But the stepdaughter framed her, making Cordy give birth out of wedlock which caused a lot of trouble and led her into gaining a notorious reputation in the city. Due to that, Cordy was dropped out of a prestigious university and kicked out of her home by her father. She was forced to wander the streets of a foreign country and struggled to survive with the skin of her teeth.Cordy once thought she had met a man who truly loved her, and she gave him everything she had; only for him to cheat on her behind her back with her stepsister.Later, she thought she had finally found true love and mustered up the courage to give life another chance… On

    After the doctor finished speaking, he didn't get a reply from John for a long while. After a while, he couldn't help but call out cautiously again, "Mr. Levine?""So, there's no other way?" John's voice was tight, and it held a slight tremble."Yes," the doctor replied."Okay. I got it."John hung up the phone abruptly. He was going to lose his mind.John kept taking deep breaths to keep his sanity so he could focus on driving. He finally arrived at North Garden's underground car park; after parking, he took off his seatbelt and left the car.The moment he left, Cordy became visibly upset.Outside, John took a few seconds to forcefully calm himself before opening the passenger side door to bring Cordy out.He quickly brought her to the elevator and pressed the button for her floor. During this time, Cordy shifted around restlessly in his arms. Her dainty hands had already ripped a few buttons on his white shirt, revealing firm muscles.When the elevator arrived on the floor

    Of course not!Those only happened to people who were chosen and lucky. How could the same happen to Cordy?Her luck had always been dreadfully abysmal.She moved slightly, but the man beside her stayed asleep. He was in a deep sleep, the same as he had been back then. Cordy finally couldn't resist and lifted the covers to see who the man buried under the covers was.The last time it happened, she had been young; fleeing had been the only thought on her mind.Now, there was almost nothing that could happen that she couldn't accept.She had a dim recollection of what happened last night. Kyle had taken her to the villa where he cheated on her with Noel. He forced her to swallow an aphrodisiac pill, and her body reacted to the drug. In her despair, she recalled hearing a loud bang before the pressure above her disappeared. Amid her hazy state, she heard the brutal sounds of someone getting beaten up. However, her body had felt too hot and uncomfortable for her to get up and see wha

    Once John dozed off, he slept deeply through the night. He didn't realize when Cordy woke up and slipped away. In fact, history had repeated itself. Last night, he helped Cordy wash her body after she fell asleep. He was afraid she would catch a cold. Once he was done and had taken a shower, he suddenly felt wide awake. His mind was filled with thoughts on explaining the state they were in come morning. By the time he fell asleep, the sun had already started to rise.However, he silently told himself he would not oversleep as he had back then.He couldn't let Cordy slip through his fingers again, and he would explain everything clearly.Luckily, he did manage to wake up just as she was about to leave.Though she was looking at him in a disdainful manner."I..." John started to explain.Cordy shook his hand off and said, "Just forget about last night. What happened, happened. I'm already used to it. Once you wake up, you should leave.""Last night, we-""I don't want to hate y

    Only God knew what John had to go through last night. Cordy had teased him mercilessly, but he couldn't do anything. Never mind that he couldn't do anything, he couldn't even leave until the drug effects wore off. The entire night, he was worried she would hurt him or violate him, so he did his best to protect himself. If a person hadn’t experienced it for themselves, he or she couldn't imagine the experience John had gone through.After getting through such a tough night, he woke up in the morning just for her to accuse him and wrong him so badly.Even a saint would get angry from this.Cordy was stunned by John's words. She couldn't believe him. Her entire body ached, and it felt exactly the same as she had experienced back then.How could she believe that he hadn't touched her?Plus, the marks on his body... It only added evidence to the fact that they must have slept together."If you don't trust me, you can go to the hospital and get a checkup. You don't have any condoms in

    Cordy wasn't angry at John's words. Looking at the disaster on John's body, she could also tell how out of control she had been last night.Her face felt like it was on fire, and even her ears were hot."Wait a bit. I'll head out and buy some clothes for you," Cordy said as she got up from the bed. "Consider it payback for last night."John felt like he had gone through life and death last night. Yet, this woman was telling him she'd just buy a set of clothes as compensation?Well, that was fine.He was content that Cordy didn't hate him. He was even getting some clothes out of it; that meant he had hit the jackpot.Cordy went to another room to change, but Zoe tumbled in as soon as she opened the door. The former was startled, and John hastily wrapped the covers tighter around his body to avoid exposing anything."Zoe?" Cordy exclaimed while holding onto Zoe, who was about to fall flat on her face.Zoe had a hard time steadying herself. She tried to explain, "I-I wasn't eavesd

    Soon, another nurse emerged from the delivery room with a small bundle. "Is the mother's family here?""Yes!" John exclaimed loudly."The delivery was successful," the nurse said. "The baby weighs eight pounds—""How is she?" John asked in agitation, not caring about the child."She's fine. The doctor is just helping her clean up and she'll be out soon," the nurse replied.As John breathed a sigh of relief, the nurse reminded him, "Aren't you the father? Here's your child."John took the baby off her arms, staring at her for a moment as the others flocked around him. "Oh, she's so fair!" Zoe could not help exclaiming. "That's the most beautiful baby I've ever seen.""Are you saying that your son's ugly?" Bob teased."To be honest, yeah," Zoe replied without thinking.Jay cleared his throat—even if it was a subjective opinion, it still hurt to have his own baby called ugly."Let me carry her," Zoe volunteered just then, and John did not hesitate to hand her his baby.As Zoe

    "What?!" Zoe exclaimed in shock.Beside them, John's face fell despite being usually stoic.Still, even before anyone could react, he scooped Cordy up in his arms and left.Zoe did not hesitate to follow, but Jay reminded her, "We're the hosts, Zoe.""Don't care." Zoe was completely unconcerned. "Ask my mom and your sister to handle the guests. I'm going with Cordy!"Jay hesitated for a moment before deciding to follow since there was no reasoning with Zoe.Sam and Quinn also realized that something was out of place.As they pulled away reluctantly, Bob shouted from below, "If you're done kissing, we're going to the hospital! Cordy's going into labor!"Quinn hurried after them as soon as she hurt, but Sam caught her. "Slow down. We can catch up."In fact, most of the guests were leaving as well—it was as if the banquet for Zoe's son was actually intended for everyone else.The poor boy was certainly unlucky to have such unreliable parents!-As everyone rushed to the hospit

    "I'm swelling from my pregnancy," Quinn explained. "It's not your fault."Sam was left staring at her for a while before asking, "So, what should I do?""I'll put it on when I slim down.""Oh." Sam was a little disappointed, since he had always dreamed of having her put on the ring he had custom made.But this was fine—they had all the time they needed, and the most important thing for him is that Quinn was marrying him!He rose to his feet just then, and everyone was cheering as soon as he did. "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"Quinn blushed right then, and Sam could see that she was embarrassed.He did not want to make things awkward for her, even if he was quite eager at the moment.Heaven knows how much he missed that night's drunken fumble they had. In fact, during the times he remembered it in dreams, he had to wash his pants when he woke up.Still, just as he took Quinn's hand and started to leave, he felt a softness on his lips—Quinn was kissing him! Sam's heart pounded thunderous

    Everyone waited patiently for the final outcome.Quinn's eyes were welling up with tears, threatening to gush if she so much as blinked.She did her best to hold back her tears—to be strong!Sam pursed his lips in turn, his Adam's apple bobbing.A long while passed, and it felt like a century for Quinn when she finally heard him say, "Yes."Quinn's tears started falling in happiness as Sam declared loudly, "I'll marry you, Quinn—it's what I've always wanted to do! I won't let you go even if you regret it eventually! You only get to be with me, and I'll never let any other man claim you! I'll become very overbearing… eventually!""I won't regret it," Quinn said, determined.She certainly would not regret marrying him!Zoe walked up to them with perfect timing just then, and Sam did a double take.He finally remembered that Zoe was the host of this luncheon and was going to leave with Quinn when Zoe whipped out a small red velvet box."You know what's in here, don't you?" Zoe a

    However, Sam had already pushed Quinn away before she could tell him. But even if he did not love her or did not want to be with her, she would never stay with Ryan.She had been disappointed in Sam, wondering why he would give up so easily.Was she that unimportant to him?Therefore, if it were not for Zoe and Cordy showing her that video or telling her so much, she would never have known that he loved her for years…Sam's heart ached even as he looked into Quinn's tearful eyes.He reached out a hand, but soon withdrew it—would he not burden her?Even so, it hurt to restrain himself as he watched her, and he was actually getting the feeling that Quinn loved him…But she already had Ryan's child…Well, he was fine with that, as long as the child was Quinn's.But would she not mind?"I will marry you, Sam," Quinn said slowly and clearly then. "Not because you're a good man, not because you prepared so much for me, and not because of how much you prepared for me, but because I

    Everyone in the hall was staring at Sam and Quinn, while Quinn took center stage, staring fixedly at Sam.He stood in the middle of the crowd, watching her silently.She in turn felt fear that he would turn and leave, just as she did not know if she had the courage to stand before him again and to declare her feelings for him in front of so many others.Nonetheless, amid the deafening silence, Sam suddenly walked toward the stage.His pace was slow as if his feet were made of lead, but he was also unusually determined.Quinn's heart raced uncontrollably right then!Everyone else was watching them nervously, especially Cordy and Zoe, with the latter being especially concerned that the cowardly Sam would bail.Fortunately, he was a man who showed responsibility. He would not leave Quinn alone and embarrassed.Hence, as everyone looked on, Sam stood before Quinn, his gaze flickering as their eyes met.He gulped ever so slightly, his emotions clearly ruffled even as he did his bes

    The guests were encouraging, loudly asking, "Why?!""Because of a woman," Sam's recording replied."Who is it?""Quinn Summer," the Sam on the screen said slowly and clearly, leaving the Sam who was in the hall stunned.What the hell?! That was the proposal video he prepared before! Why did it show up here? Did Zoe make a mistake?!He knew it—leave anything to Zoe, and she would mess it up!He started striding toward the stage, intent on stopping the recording, when John and Bob intercepted him with a look of utter guilt while the recording continued. "Quinn is my wife, and we've been married for years, but I've never really loved her—not because I don't, but because I'm afraid to. I feel too insignificant in comparison to the one she loves, so I'd always hurt her… painfully and childishly. I regret that so much now, Quinn. How could I have abandoned you for so long because of my own jealousy? I'd rather hold you in my sleep every night, but my damned pride denied me that for y

    At the banquet hall, Jay and Zoe were thanking their guests with their children in their arms.Then, Zoe announced excitedly, "Please give my best friend, who is also my son's godmother, a warm applause as she comes on stage!"Sam stood at a corner of the hall, watching as Quinn walked up the stage, only realizing just then that her belly was clearly swelling despite her baggy clothes.Time flies—he had not left that long ago, but she and Ryan already had a child.She was not worried about giving him a stroke, was she?He watched as Quinn took the mic and looked around below searching, seemingly searching.After a while, he thought she was looking at him, but by the time he looked up, she had already turned away.Maybe she was looking for Ryan before remembering that Ryan was not there?Nonetheless, Quinn spoke into the mic, saying, "I'm honored to be chosen as the godmother to Zoe's son, and she's been saying he'd be engaged to my child if it's a girl. I already love my godson

    As their eyes met, Sam turned frantic and averted his. "Of course.""Really?" Quinn asked."Would I lie to you?" Sam asked a little grumpily."And you didn't bring her back?" Quinn asked."I'm on a schedule, and it'd be taxing for her if I bought her along," Sam said, making things up as he went along. "I'll bring her along when things are less busy.""Is she pretty?" Quinn pressed."What, have I ever picked an ugly one?" Sam snorted smugly. "You know I prefer curvaceous types, and there are plenty of those abroad.""Do you have a photo?"Sam was silent for a while and eventually said, "Yeah.""Can I see it?""What, does she have to pass your assessment?""Just curious about the girl who can tempt you to settle down," Quinn replied. "You'd be humbled." Sam hastily came up with an excuse."I won't," Quinn said, determined."You'll see her when I bring her home." Sam refused nonetheless."I would like to see a photo now.""No, she's not that photogenic. It'd be slander a
