Walking into the coffee shop, Selina felt uncertain about how to face Fernando, who was drawing admiring glances from female customers, some even boldly approaching him for his contact information.Thomas had confirmed her suspicion about hearing Fernando's voice the day she and David were rescued -
"I won't give him that chance," David said.Learning that Selina had met with Fernando made David so angry he could practically cough up blood right there in his hospital bed.What made it worse was Fernando's provocative text message to David, warning that if he ever hurt Selina or made her unhappy
Isabella tagged along with Vincent to join the occasion.Belvedere Heights had been renovated to match its original layout exactly.However, unlike before, it now had security guards, cooks, gardeners, and servants – so many people that even Selina felt uncomfortable.Previously, David had disliked
David's expression immediately darkened at Vincent's words.One Fernando was bad enough, and now there were Noah and Liam to worry about too.Not to mention Bruno watching like a hawk from Lumina.With so many people trying to steal Selina away, he had to be vigilant and guard against giving them ev
Not old ones, but new injuries.Despite nearly a month in the hospital, his facial wounds hadn't fully healed."Am I ugly now?" Without turning, David sensed Selina's gaze and asked softly.His tone carried equal parts nervousness, worry, and cautious uncertainty.Selina's heart softened, and she qu
David never did warn Selina after all.Daniel and Nicole dropping her off at Auroville right now - they clearly didn't want her involved in the mess upstairs.Belvedere Heights was only about an hour's drive from Skyview Estates Unit 1.David owned a villa here too, and his car smoothly pulled into
Something wild inside him roared for more, desperate to take everything.But just then, his sharp instincts detected someone watching them.An oppressive gaze bore into them from nearby.Sharp and dangerous, like the edge of a blade.David's heart jolted. Almost instinctively, he shielded Selina wit
Thomas's suspicions were quickly confirmed."Thomas, what are you doing?" A sharp feminine voice called out, seeming to freeze Thomas in his tracks.He instinctively pulled back his fist and turned around.There was Ashley, still in her business suit and heels, rushing over.She was slightly sweaty
Due to the lighting, Selina couldn't make out who was standing opposite Maya.After Maya's outburst, the other person said something inaudible, but it clearly agitated Maya further. She gripped the ornate second-floor railing, leaning her body forward.As she leaned down, people in the dance floor b
The bar's music was deafening.But in Selina's ears, David's words kept echoing.Each word hit her heart like a drumbeat."I have money," Selina said, looking into David's dark eyes with a slight tremor in her voice.But David replied: "What's yours is yours. And what's mine is yours too!"Selina bl
Once again, Selina was left dizzy from David's intense, dominating kiss.By the time they left, Nicole's luxury car was long gone.Selina pressed her slightly swollen lips together, glaring at David in annoyance.Because of her pregnancy, David had been restraining himself from their usual marital i
But even if she knew, surely she wouldn't be angry enough about that to ban him from their bedroom?"I'm sorry, honey!" Daniel had to humble himself and apologize. "I shouldn't have gone behind your back to pick up Dad. Please don't be angry."Nicole rolled her eyes: "You still don't know what you d
Maya's butler and servants delivered the gifts, giving Nicole and Selina no chance to refuse before quickly departing as swiftly as they had arrived.Under Nicole's curious questioning, Selina finally had to come clean. She explained everything about how she came to call Maya her sister-in-law.Nico
The beads didn't look particularly special, but after several failed attempts to refuse, Selina finally accepted them.Nelson, who had been pacing in the castle courtyard, saw David emerge holding Selina's hand with a wooden box in his other hand. His handsome brows furrowed.Maya had let them go wi
Maya smirked at Selina's protective stance over her husband.Sure, David was good-looking with a great physique, but he was taken - definitely not her type."I'm not interested in your man," Maya said, giving David a dismissive look. "A married man going to bars alone to pick up women? How shameless
"Honey, I'm fine, you don't need to worry about me!""What happened to your clothes and hair?" David asked after checking her over for injuries."Oh, I was sunbathing and reading in the back garden, and I accidentally fell asleep!" Selina admitted, lowering her head shyly.David finally relaxed comp
Just thinking about what Selina might have endured made David want to strangle Maya.But he didn't want to frighten Selina.She'd already been traumatized when he was drugged by Maya and almost forced himself on her - it had taken her so long to recover.How could he bear to make her fear him by tak
