Selina didn't find out that David had returned Alexa to Lumina until three days later.During those three days, she had been completely swamped managing the project withdrawal at her company. She was so busy that she barely touched the ground, and could only exchange a few words with David during th

David watched Selina finish her meal, and knowing she had work to do, decided not to disturb her further.Before leaving, he playfully demanded a "service charge," pestering Selina until she stood on her tiptoes to plant a kiss on his cheek."Don't forget to apply your medicine," Selina teased, step

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
David's face darkened like storm clouds, and he let out a scornful laugh: "You kidnapped my wife just to get me here, didn't you?""Your wife?" Maya's voice suddenly rose, filled with disbelief, but she quickly composed herself, looking at David with an odd expression."You think I'm still obsessed

David paused upon hearing this report, his anxiety somewhat relieved."You're saying the people who took my wife work for the same woman who tried to take me before?"After receiving confirmation, David took a deep breath and called Nelson without hesitation.If he remembered correctly, that woman h
When did David meet a woman like her? She had no idea!Selina carefully observed the woman before her.She was strikingly beautiful, with refined features and flawless skin. Her elegant figure was perfectly proportioned in a way that would turn any man's head.Even more remarkable was her natural au
Even his initial relationship with Fiona had revolved around money. Yet now, he didn't seem to mind!"There are plenty of rich people, but she chose my money – which means she chose me," Joseph proudly declared. "Besides, I'm capable of making money. If she likes my money, I'll gladly give it to her
Seeing Selina's composed expression, David finally felt the weight lift from his shoulders.He wanted to destroy Bruno, but had worried about Selina's reaction and potential anger. Now, confirming that Selina truly didn't care about Bruno anymore, David felt much more at ease. It was like finally be
