Emerald shook her head, trying to dismiss the thoughts that plagued her mind, and made another attempt to break free from Alaric's hold. When she finally succeeded, he quickly caught her wrist, forcing their eyes to meet. A small smirk played on Alaric's lips as he suddenly pinched her chin, as if he had read her mind."I've slept with you so many times. Why didn't I notice before that you found my touch so repulsive, Miss Greene?" he asked in a husky voice.Emerald quickly averted her gaze and shook her head. "I'm just hungry," she deflected, changing the subject.Even though they had been intimate countless times, Emerald was like a hedgehog, always guarded, never allowing anyone to truly get close.

"It was their illegal operation on the ship that caused the fire. The lawyer will hold them responsible and compensate for all losses,” he replied, clearly aware of the events leading up to the fire.Alaric moved behind Emerald and stood close, his tall frame casting a shadow over her. Emerald could feel his presence looming, and a sense of unease crept over her. Was he taking out some hidden anger on her? Or was there something else at play?She couldn’t help but wonder why no waiters or staff had approached them, despite the commotion. It was as if the area had been deliberately cleared, giving her and Alaric free rein to laugh and flirt without any prying eyes. The thought flashed in her mind briefly before she dismissed it. She was giving herself too much credit. If Alaric’s interest in her was purely physical, and if Ethan was so concerne

"You can write down your wishes," he said.She leaned over the table and wrote carefully, while Alaric released his lantern. Glancing at her list, he noticed a few entries:The salary has been increased to 28,000.Watch the sunrise on the famous mountain here.Visit three cities in one month.Drink a big cup of cheese and strawberry pop in one sitting.Alaric smiled and shook his head, realizing how simple Emerald’s wishes were. To him, these weren't wishes but rather easily attainable goals."Don’t bother God with that," he teased.Emerald quickly covered her wish list, pushing

From the start, many people have noticed Emerald's natural beauty. If she were just a bit taller, she could easily become a model or beauty queen. It's true that not everything is given to you by God. This is all thanks to her mother, Esperanza Greene. In addition to Emerald’s natural beauty, Esperanza has been carefully training her since childhood. Nowadays, Emerald has a delicate figure and a sultry voice that have left a deep impression on Alaric over time.Emerald noticed that Alaric had been walking a long distance while still carrying her, so she tugged at his collar. Alaric tilted his head to look at her.“Where are we going? Aren’t you going to take me back to the apartment?” she asked him cautiously.He smirked and continued walking.

This reality was far from what she told her mother. When her mother asked how she could afford the unit with her modest salary, Emerald lied and said that Ethan had given it to her—a claim that only angered her mother, Esperanza, further. With so many beautiful condo units in the city, Ethan had only given her a small one.The Florida family was well-known in the city’s business industry, but they still couldn’t compete with the truly wealthy families in the country. They were considered a second-class family. Although Ethan had wanted to buy the unit for Emerald, she refused to accept it because she didn’t want to owe anything to someone like him.Besides, she knew from the start that Ethan wasn’t the one she’d end up with. From the way Ethan had secretly watched his half-sister Samantha when they first met, Emerald knew thi

Alaric directly reached out and pulled out her legs. Because she was a little shy, her toes were curled up, making her look very cute.“Why are you nervous? I had already touched and tasted every inch of you, right?” Alaric chuckled which made Emerald roll her eyes while her face was still heating up.He pinched her slender white ankles and massaged her rough fingertips in circles, one after another, gently and patiently. Seeing his hand moving higher and higher, it stopped at the knee. There were still bruises on the knee from the previous knock, which was in sharp contrast with the skin next to it.Emerald wasn’t sure what Alaric was planning to do when he suddenly lifted her knee. Her eyes widened in surprise as he gently kissed the bruise on each of her knees.

Instead of heading to the bed, Alaric took her to the terrace. As soon as he set her down, the cool breeze greeted her. The curtains danced in the strong wind, instantly cooling her down and easing the heat she had felt.From the terrace, they could see the city lights. If she could, Emerald would wish for the night to never end, as she was genuinely enjoying this moment with Alaric and didn’t want it to be over.Emerald was about to get up when Alaric held her shoulders down and pushed her back down.“What are you doing? I’m going inside…” she mumbled weakly as Alaric suddenly bent down. Their faces almost touched again. Emerald’s heart pounded wildly, but she also felt embarrassed when she saw that Alaric was simply reaching for his phone on the nearby table.

"My little Emerald, you can't handle any loss," the man's hoarse voice whispered in her ear, sending shivers down her spine.Emerald had never been with a man before and was unfamiliar with the sensations it brought. She had no idea that once she experienced it, she would crave the fiery passion it ignited. She felt the cold glass door in front of her as the man pushed her against it, his burning body pressing against her from behind.She could sense his towering presence, and when his lips touched her neck, she nearly burned from the heat of his kisses. Emerald turned in pain, climbed up the man's strong chest with her weak arms, and bit down hard on his neck. Her arms wrapped around his neck, and she entwined her legs around his waist, feeling intoxicated. She didn't recognize herself anymore."Can you be gentle?" she asked, even though she was curious about the opposite.The man chuckled in her ear, his grip on her waist tightening. "Do you want me to be gentle?" he whispered. "I d

The two boys immediately stopped fighting, calming down at the sound of her voice. Yosef quickly pushed James away and ran to Emerald, sobbing.“Ms. Greene… It was Jame's fault. He hit me here…” he cried, pointing to his stomach. “Blow it off for me, Teacher.”Emerald shook her head and sighed as she examined the scratches on Yosef's arm. She was sure both boys had injuries, and this might be the end of her career.“Alright. Teacher will blow it off, so stop crying. I’m here,” she comforted Yosef, gently wiping his tears from his flushed cheeks.When Emerald looked at James, she noticed the blood on the corner of his lip. His eyes were staring at her, seemingly wanting care as well, but he stood in the corner, just watching them.“It’s alright. For now, go with Teacher Iris to change your clothes, okay? I will call your parents,” she said, signaling Iris to take Yosef and change his clothes.As usual, Emerald was left to explain the situation to the boys' parents. She had no other cho

"Usually when Mr. Corrigan hosts a banquet, the first and second floors are used for entertainment. The third floor is reserved for him and his friends during intimate parties or gatherings. The fifth floor is Mr. Corrigan's private area. No outsiders have ever entered."It became clear that Alaric was indeed the elusive figure behind the scenes. The servant swiped an elevator card and pressed the button for the fifth floor, implying that Emerald was considered more than just an outsider.This sense of unwelcome familiarity made Emerald uneasy. Regardless of Alaric's high status, she had no intention of engaging with him beyond their previous encounters. Her experiences with her own mother-being the mistress of her father-had left her wary. She did not want to find herself in a similar situation.Even as a child, Emerald knew she wasn't born out of love. She was simply the result of a mistake made by two people who had betrayed others. It's a burden she will carry wit

"You're stuttering, your breath is hitching, and you're still saying you don't want it, huh?"There was a faint scent of cedar on Alaric's body, filling the cab with a woody aroma that felt almost like an aphrodisiac. As he trailed his lips slowly down her neck, goosebumps erupted wherever the warmth touched her.Emerald arched her body, her vision blurring, her mind conflicted between rejection and the undeniable welcome of his touch. It felt as if her body had a mind of its own, gradually surrendering to his advances. His large hand stroked along her shirt, and Emerald could no longer hold back. She gasped."Wait... Stop..." Emerald was breathless, trying to catch her breath.A few seconds of silence stretched between them. As they both caught their breath, Emerald's stomach growled loudly. Her face flushed deeply when Alaric looked at her in surprise."Are you hungry? Haven't you eaten anything yet?" He asked, clearly taken aback.Embarrassed, Emeral
