"You!" Earl slammed his cup onto the coffee table. To think that Lionel would speak to him like this, all for a woman!

Lionel casually curled the corner of his lips, unfazed by his grandfather's rage. He continued coldly, "Let me make myself clear today. If anyone dares to stir up trouble again, don't blame me for turning my back on them!"

Jacob, who had been silent up to now, glanced at his son with disdain, letting out a cold laugh. "Turning your back on someone? You've always had no regard for anyone!"

Lionel's appearance was a clear reflection of his father.

The two of them shared the same deep features. Jacob, in his fifties, though older, still had striking features — a sharp brow and a well-defined nose that gave him a distinguished look. In his younger days, he was considered quite a catch. Even now, despite his age, his status still made him the object of many women's affection.

Lionel's lips pressed into a tight line, and his handso

    The tall figure lay back on the bed as Lionel pulled out his phone and searched for Chloe's location. Seeing the blinking red dot indicating she was in his villa, all the lingering worries faded in an instant, and a smile unconsciously curled on his lips.His thumb slid across the screen, dialing a video call.When the call connected, Chloe had just come out of the bathroom. Seeing the word "Husband" flashing on the screen, she revealed a bright, white smile. She gently swiped the screen, and Lionel's handsome face appeared."Lion..." she finally whispered his nickname. When they were face-to-face, it always felt difficult to say, but after only a few hours apart, she already missed him. The affectionate nickname slipped out of her control.On Lionel's screen, Chloe's face glowed with a fresh, flushed look. Her long hair still wet, hanging loosely over her shoulders, making her look even more refreshing and charming.Her eyes were bright and full o

    Before Lionel ended the call, Chloe had clearly heard a woman's voice. However, Lionel told her it was nothing.Was he really trying to lie to her so blatantly?Furrowing her brow, Chloe didn't even bother to dry her hair as she lay back on the bed, holding the phone to her ear. Her thoughts ran uncontrollably, replaying the woman's voice she had heard during the call.Is it really a habit for men to lie so casually?One moment, he could speak to her with such tenderness, showering her with sweet words as if she were the only one he cared about. And in the next, he could lie to her without even blinking.Hah!How had she forgotten that a man's sweet talk was often the most unreliable? She had been hurt by it before, and yet here she was, once again swept away by his smooth words.Chloe, when will you ever learn?All you need to do is stay by his side. You know by now that his position isn't ordinary, and that there might be oth

    After running out of Lionel's room in tears, Madge shoved the tray of food into the hands of a passing servant and hurried back to her own quarters, covering her mouth to stifle her sobs.In the darkness of her room, she didn't bother to turn on the light, wiping her tears over and over.In the end, Lionel despised her. Not just despised—he regarded her as worse than garbage.Yes, she was Jacob's woman, but who in this household truly acknowledged her status? Jacob himself only showed her fleeting affection when he needed her; the moment she was of no use, he treated her with the same disdain as Lionel.She realized she held even less sway than Jacob's mistresses outside of this house, unable to win favor or affection from the men here.Once, she had chosen to follow Jacob, drawn by his status, wealth, and charm. Ten years ago, Jacob had indeed been handsome, domineering, and captivating—a man like Lionel today.Now, Jacob was ag

Even when Chloe brought her food, she wouldn't eat it. The situation left Chloe feeling deeply troubled.Despite this, Chloe kept visiting Cynthia every day, always wearing a cheerful smile in hopes of lifting her spirits.That afternoon, Chloe hurried to the hospital as usual. When she pushed open the door to Cynthia's hospital room, she was shocked to find the bed neatly made, the belongings gone, and Cynthia and her mother nowhere to be seen."Cynthia!"

She doesn't want me anymore.Her heart clenched in pain as she rushed to the front desk to inquire about Cynthia's whereabouts. Only then

    "Lion..." Chloe glanced at the man beside her, then looked at Heather walking away. When she turned back, she noticed Lionel's gaze hadn't shifted. She gently shook his arm.Seeing the proud and cold expressions on both men, though Chloe didn't know what had happened between them, it was clear it was something serious.Lionel tore his gaze away and, when he looked back at Chloe, his expression softened again.Suddenly, his handsome face darkened.Just now, Heather had said he almost hit her! His heart tightened in silence."Do you walk around without looking?""Uh..." Chloe wasn't used to Lionel's sudden change of mood. Her lips twitched as she realized he was angry because she had almost been in an accident. She said softly, "Actually, I was far away from his car. Nothing happened, I just got a little scared. Really, look, I'm fine!"As she spoke, Chloe, afraid Lionel wouldn't believe her, rolled up her sleeves to show him.Lionel sighed in relief and gently stroked her hair, pulling

    As Chloe nestled into Lionel's arms, she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. She shivered instinctively and turned her head, but saw nothing."Lionel… I'm a little cold." She tried to calm the uneasy feeling stirring in her chest and pressed herself closer to him.Lionel tightened his arm around her, sharing his warmth.Suddenly, he seemed to remember something. He stopped, looking at her and said slowly, "Don't call me that again, call me Lion."Chloe's face flushed as she recalled the incident. Now that she thought about it, she felt like she had been possessed at that moment.Lionel, ever dominant, wouldn't let Chloe avoid him. He locked eyes with her, forcing her to respond.Although Chloe felt awkward, she nodded slightly. Lionel immediately smiled, his face softening as if coated with honey. "Good girl!"In the past, he had been cold, detached, and proud to the point of arrogance. He had looked down on her, dismissing her every move. Now, though, he was so gentle, showerin

    Lionel's relatives gathered at the Williams family villa, filling the grand estate with an air of tension.Earl was visibly surprised. It wasn't a holiday, nor had he summoned his children. Yet here they were, all showing up unannounced. To make matters worse, Flora—the last person he wanted to see—had also appeared.Was this mere coincidence? Or was it someone's deliberate scheme? Earl's sharp eyes narrowed with suspicion.She had promised him she would leave Lionel, vowing not to take a single cent in compensation.

    "What?"Earl and Jacob shouted in unison, springing to their feet.They stared at Flora, their expressions a mix of shock and disbelief. Although their eyes betrayed their uncertainty, they were sure they hadn't misheard."I'm pregnant," Flora replied, feigning a timid tone as she lightly rested her hand on her still-flat stomach. Her quick glance took in the shifting emotions on Earl and Jacob's faces.They were stunned, but beneath the initial shock, she could clearly see fleeting traces of delight.With a touch of melancholy, she added, "I know that no matter what I say now, it won't matter. I'm not worthy of giving birth to Lionel's child. But all I'm asking is…"Thud!To everyone's surprise, Flora dropped to her knees at Earl's feet, sobbing. "Grandpa, I beg you—please spare my child! I may be worthless, but the child is innocent. I thought about hiding this and giving birth in secret, but I know with your influence, no matter where I run, you'd find out eventually…"Flora's grie

    For the sake of her child, she didn't want to leave. But… she couldn't let her child be born a bastard, facing the criticism and judgment that came with such a status. She wouldn't let her child live with such a shameful identity. She had to take her child and leave his life behind.Lionel felt a sharp pain in his chest. This time, he had really hurt her."No! I won't agree to this!" He growled fiercely, his cold lips trembling slightly."Heh…" Chloe let out a bitter laugh. "Lionel, even now, you still say no? What right do you have to say that? Will your future wife allow my existence? Even if she does, I won't shamelessly cling to you here. I won't share a man with another woman. Let's part on good terms.

    The gaze of both men turned sharply toward Chloe, but they could only see the cold, distant silhouette of her back.Hearing Chloe's hoarse voice, both men seemed frozen, as if struck by lightning. They were momentarily immobilized, like they had been enchanted. By the time they snapped out of it, Chloe had already walked several meters away."Chloe…" Geoffrey quickly turned and chased after her.Lionel's face darkened, his long legs making it easy to overtake Geoffrey, whose injured leg slowed him down. In just a couple of steps, Lionel was already right behind Chloe.Without a word, Lionel reached out and pulled Chloe into his arms."Let go! Lionel, I've become a joke. Are you trying to make it impossible for me to live here anymore?" Chloe said coldly, her eyes never meeting Lionel's. She suppressed the pain in her heart and spoke with an icy detachment."Chloe, please don't be angry. It will hurt you. I can't bear to see you suffer like this.

    Chloe instinctively pulled her hand away and reached out to Geoffrey. "Geoffrey, I want to marry you. Will you marry me?""Ah?" Geoffrey was taken aback, but as soon as he caught the murderous look in Lionel's eyes, he smirked. "I've been waiting for this." He grabbed Chloe's hand, pulling her close to him."Chloe..." Lionel's hand reached out to grab air, his heart aching with a sharp pain. "Come home with me. I'll explain everything."Chloe acted as if nothing was wrong, forcing a faint smile. "No need. There's nothing for you to explain. A woman like me doesn't deserve your respect."Turning her head, she looked away. Though her heart ached painfully, her blood rushed, and she longed to throw herself into his arms, to tell him everything—her fears, her sadness, and that they were having a child. But she couldn't. He was already engaged to another woman.Even though she was of low status, she would never share a man with another woman!She clenched her fist, forcing back the bittern

If you don't come out soon, it will get cold."Still, silence.She raised her voice and called again, "Madam, Master will be home soon."No response. Could something have happened?Thinking this, Grace lost her composure. She nervously twisted the door handle, opening the door and quickly stepping inside.

    "Geoffrey, take me to my mom's." Chloe finally looked at Geoffrey for the first time.Since getting into Geoffrey's car, she had been lost in her thoughts, completely unaware of Geoffrey's gaze as he scrutinized her."Did you two argue?" Geoffrey's voice was low and hoarse, filled with a deep, painful concern as he looked at Chloe.Seeing the redness around her eyes made his heart ache, as if thousands of needles were running through his veins, causing him sharp, excruciating pain."No." Chloe took a deep breath and answered calmly."Don't lie to me. Chloe, you don't lie." Geoffrey grabbed Chloe's hand and said, "I've told you before, Lionel isn't the best choice for you. His background is too complicated, he's really not right for you. Chloe, come with me.

"Thank you," he replied curtly, rising from his seat. He turned to address the elders. "I'm feeling a bit tired. If you'll excuse me, I'll head to my room now.""Go get some rest. It's been a long day for you!"His aunt Hannah forced a smile and waved dismissively, hiding her envy behind a facade of politeness. Beneath her outward cheer, her heart burned with jealousy.

    Just as she sat up in bed, she heard footsteps outside the door. Her heart leaped with excitement. She jumped out of bed, rushed to the door, and flung it open, calling out, "Lion—" But the person standing before her was Grace."Madam, it's me. The Master won't be coming home tonight." Grace stepped inside, carefully balancing a tray of food, a bright smile plastered on her face as if something delightful had happened. "Before he left, he made it clear that I must take good care of you. I wouldn't dare neglect his orders. I saw you were asleep during dinner and didn't want to disturb you, but I figured you'd be awake by now, so I brought your meal upstairs.""Thank you," Chloe murmured, disappointment flashing across her face as she followed Grace back inside.She sat down to eat, but every bite felt like a lump in her throat. The food refused to go down smoothly. She glanced at her flat belly, clenched her teeth, and forced herself to eat a bit more before giving up entirely.When Gr
