This question was too straightforward. She could answer yes, but their wedding wasn't going to happen anytime soon. Moreover, Joseph's expression was extremely gloomy. She knew too well how cruel and fierce he was. She could also say no, but she would destroy the happiness in her heart. That happiness was too precious to her. "Say something!" Joseph seethed with anger. The glare in his eyes lessen, but it still seemed like there was nowhere for her to hide. "Is it even my decision as to whether I'm going to remarry?" Waverly rebuked as she met his gaze without flinching. Bellamy sensed the unusual atmosphere between them. At this moment, Yasmine walked over to them. She wore a purple and shiny long dress, which showed her delicate hourglass body figure. Her gaze was on Joseph and Waverly. She smiled and said, "Did I miss something? Waverly, tell me about it." Waverly let go of Bellamy's arm and approached Yasmine. She explained, "It
"Not this again..." Waverly turned her face away. Bellamy couldn't continue further, so he changed the subject. "What do you want to eat for dinner?" Waverly thought for a moment and looked at him, saying, "Bellamy, I don't want to stay in the President's Mansion tonight. I will be staying with Yasmine at a hotel. Since I'm going back tomorrow, I have to stay with them, anyway." "Joseph will also be leaving with Yasmine, right?" Bellamy asked as he frowned. "Most probably." Waverly smiled. "What's the matter? You felt great to humiliate him just now, but now you are worried?" "He is extremely arrogant and also extremely rude. His arrogance came from his heart, I can feel it. I really don't like him." Bellamy openly expressed his thoughts. Waverly shrugged. "Most of the time, he would only be targeting me and wouldn't dare to do anything to me. After all, I have you, my uncle, and Ronaldo to back me up. Don't worry." "Alright, back to our topic.
Waverly rubbed her belly and glanced at the time. "It's almost nine o'clock." "Bellamy..." "Waverly..." The two of them spoke at the same time. Waverly was afraid that Bellamy would ask her to stay. She didn't want to refuse, but if she stayed, Joseph might do something to her. Now that she had turned off her phone, Joseph must be furious. She had to take care of it. So, she spoke first, "I have to go." Bellamy stared at her deeply for a long time before saying, "Call me when you've arranged your schedule. I'll see you off tomorrow." "No. Don't see me off tomorrow," Waverly refused. She didn't want him to witness her embarrassment and reluctance. She wanted to deal with it alone. "Why not?" Bellamy asked, "I'll send you. It won't take much time." "I'll be more reluctant to leave you," Waverly replied with a wry smile. "Then don't leave," Bellamy brought up the matter again. Waverly did not speak. She smiled a
"Joseph, you are so childish!" Waverly scolded angrily. "I'm childish? Fine, let's do something mature then!" A cold gaze flashed through Joseph's eyes, and he tore off her clothes in the next moment. Without a second of doubt, he had directly overpowered her. Waverly's entire body trembled because of the pain. And she struggled desperately to escape. However, his weight was as heavy as a mountain and she couldn't move at all. She could only bear it. Feeling helpless and furious, she wanted to bite his neck. But Joseph grabbed her face as if he knew what she was going to do. Then, Waverly tried to bite his hand but failed. After more than ten minutes, he got what he wanted, thus he sat up and switched on the lights. Meanwhile, Waverly's heart was ranging in burning anger. Having been freed from his grasp, she lunged forward to attack his neck once again. Joseph dodged to a side, and she seized the chance to bite him on the shoulder. He lo
The next day, someone knocked on the door. Waverly was very tired after what happened the night before, and she didn't want to get up at all. She turned over and got back to sleep. After a while. The door was opened. "Waverly, are you crazy? There are so many flowers in the room! Do you think you are a flower fairy? Are you a worm?" Yasmine's voice was sharp as she exclaimed. Waverly had no choice but to open her eyes. She sat up and looked at Yasmine with dark circles under her eyes. Yasmine paused upon seeing her tired expression. "Your hair... So you've been wearing a wig all this while?" "Why do you have the room card to my room?" Waverly asked and got up from the bed wearily. "I got it from the receptionist. Look at the time! It's getting late and you're still sleeping. Do you really think you're still Mrs. President?" Yasmine chided sarcastically. "If I still think I'm Mrs. President, I wouldn't get up so late." Waverly then w
"Haha! Why? Are you annoyed?" Yasmine continued to provoke Waverly. "From this issue, it proves that he truly values the cooperation with Madam Lenny. Since you and Bellamy have cooperated with each other, both of you would have to bear the consequences together," Waverly replied in a low voice. "Are you cursing me?" Yasmine said sourly. "I'm saying it as a reminder. I can't control your thoughts. So, are we staying here for the time being?" "You wish! We'll head back in the afternoon. Bellamy invited me for lunch. We'll get going now," Yasmine spoke happily and then hung up the phone. At this moment, Waverly's eyes were red. The situation felt to her like she was jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire. Just when Waverly thought the situation couldn't deteriorate any further, it had worsened. She took a deep breath to calm herself down. Then, she made a phone call to Joseph. He answered the phone not long after. "What's the matte
"That's not true. Not everyone wants to only be friends with people who are beneficial to them." "I don't mean benefit in terms of money. There can be benefits such as companionship and sincerity, right?" Waverly said pessimistically. "Then that's not a benefit. It's the effort you put into the relationship." Waverly smiled and replied, "Tell me, how many friends you made in primary school are you still staying in touch with, especially after they all went to different high schools? As for the friends in college, how many would you stay in contact with if they don't work in the same city? If you were to borrow money from them, how much would they offer?" "I once asked a friend, and she immediately lent money to me," Hayley argued. Waverly's smile widened. "You are working for the President, and you have direct contact with him. Who wouldn't see you as beneficial to them?" When Hayley heard this, she frowned. "Benefits? Is that what's left between eve
"She is just a child," Waverly reasoned. "And that's why she's still immature. You know that I don't like immature people, especially those who act like fools in front of me," Joseph hinted. "Yes." Then, Waverly noticed that Hayley hadn't left yet. She took five hundred dollars from her bag and handed it to Hayley, urging, "Go ahead and buy whatever you want." "Madam, I'm worried about you," Hayley said worriedly. "Since Joseph showed up here, it means this place is surrounded by his people. What can you do here? Besides, I will have to face him when I go back anyway. I know what I should do. Just listen to me," Waverly lowered her voice as she spoke and put the money into Hayley's hands. "Should I inform the President? This is A Country's territory anyway," Hayley said. "Did you forget what I've told you? Don't tell Bellamy anything about me, and don't trouble him either," Waverly reminded her solemnly. Hayley noticed that Waverly was ge
The bullet pierced through his chest, and blood dyed Joseph's silver coat red immediately. "Joseph!" Waverly's eyes were bloodshot, and her roaring voice was choked. He looked at her, and wanted to smile, but he didn't have the energy to do so. He fell a few steps back, and leaned against the window. The sea breeze tousled his hair into a mess. "Let go of me!" Waverly struggled, but they were too strong and she couldn't escape. "Push him down, and make sure he dies," said the person who was holding Waverly captive. "No!" Waverly yelled, but her efforts were futile. They walked up to Joseph and pushed him down the window ruthlessly. She screamed, "Joseph Mccarthy!" The person who was grabbing Waverly released her all of a sudden, and she rushed to the window as fast as lightning. Then, she jumped into the sea without hesitation. Joseph had been shot, and his blood diffused into the sea rapidly. Waverly dived into the red pool of blo
Boris asked, "What's the solution?" Breddy answered, "We'll have to make her take the initiative to face it." Boris sighed, "That's easier said than done." Shaking his head, Breddy replied, "It's not too hard. You said it yourself that she's a kind person. She would even help a complete stranger, so what makes you think she won't save a person that's extremely important to her?" Boris was stunned. Breddy continued, "If this person was heavily injured for her, she would realize that there's someone in this world who still loves her, and she'll naturally want to stay in this world for a little longer. By then, she'll be willing to open up her heart." Boris took a pause, and said, "But who is this person?" To the Waverly Martell of the past, Bellamy was everything to her. However, at present, he was nothing. She cared about everyone, but she refused to let others care about her. It seemed as if she had already merged into the world, but th
Waverly frowned and looked at Breddy's left hand. She saw as he put the coin in his left hand, "What if I want you to jump off the top floor?" "Then I'll jump right down." Breddy said affirmatively. He raised his smile and looked incredibly confident. His character was like the calm deep blue sea, vast and far-reaching, which made her feel at ease. Waverly's eyes once again fell on his left hand. "Believe in what you've seen. Things aren't as complicated as they seem. It's just that simple," Breddy reminded her. Waverly pointed at his left hand. As expected, the coin was in the palm of his hand when he opened it. "You won. What do you want me to do?" asked Breddy. Waverly looked coldly at the man in front of her. She would even save a stranger whom she didn't know, so how could she ask Breddy, who was treating her, to seek death? She had no idea why, but judging by his self-confidence, he seemed like he was playing house with
Waverly hesitated. "Just talk to the psychiatrist. Perhaps he would give you new ideas and inspirations. Didn't we agree that will be better for our future?" Boris encouraged her. "We are leaving tomorrow. We might not have time. Thank you for your kindness," Waverly said. "I have made an appointment at ten o'clock in the evening in the hotel. He will come to the hotel," Boris said. "Y-you have arranged an appointment for me today?" Waverly had an unspeakable strange feeling in her heart. Even after knowing the death of his girlfriend, Boris could still call a psychiatrist for her. Did he do so out of friendship, generosity or because he pitied her? "My girlfriend said that she wanted me to do my best to help others on her behalf," Boris said with a smile. "The heavens must have summoned her back to be an angel," Waverly comforted Boris. "I think so too." It was night. Waverly ate a little, took a shower, stayed in the r
Cadwell looked at the files in his hand. They were very thick. He flipped through them briefly. There were twelve pages in it. The files talked about a lot about the nation's history, analyzing the cause, the process, and the result of those incidents. It also explained a few things regarding Queen Danina and Prince Caesar. It analyzed their personalities and gave a prediction on what the future would be like. The analysis was flawless. Every word was written in perfect unison. He could prepare himself in times of danger, so he could exert the right amount of pressure when needed. Furthermore, she had given him two plans, one of which was to work with her and expand his diplomatic power in M Country. She represented the Mccarthy family and also the highest level of weapons. Of course, if he did not feel that such a cooperation was necessary, they would still maintain a good relationship. After all, there was no hatred between him and the Mccarthy family. He woul
"I was wrong. I've realized deeply that I was in the wrong. I should bad-mouth you rather than Madam. Mr. Mccarthy, I should offend you rather than offend Madam," Yadriel lowered his head and said in a low tone. Joseph stood up and walked up to him, "You feel wronged?" "I feel wronged on your behalf." Yadriel's eyes were red as he said, "Mr. Mccarthy, I know very well that even though you've treated her so well, she has never treated you fairly. As soon as Bellamy went to find her, she threw everything away. She didn't even want the title of Peace Lady and was willing to follow Bellamy again. Does she know how much effort, energy and time you've spent in order to earn the title of Peace Lady for her?" "She likes Bellamy, so naturally she doesn't need to think about what's fair or not with him," Joseph said clearly. "If so, why are you treating her so well?" Yadriel didn't understand Joseph's actions. "You're my best friend," Joseph said with sadness in his
Waverly sat down on the sofa, "How's your relationship with Madam Lenny?" "Oh, Madam Lenny has an excellent relationship with Queen Danina. In the past, I even had a meal with Queen Danina with her help," Thomas said. "Do you know why the relationship between her and Queen Danina is so good?" Waverly asked. "I can only say that Madam Lenny has brilliant judgement. In addition to that, she's quite capable. When Queen Danina wasn't a queen yet, they were already close friends." "Perhaps Madam Lenny invested quite a bit of effort in making Queen Danina the queen. Thus, their friendship is incredibly firm and unshakable. At the moment, Prince Caesar is one of the most popular heirs to the throne. Once he becomes king, perhaps Madam Lenny's status will become even more unwavering." "Besides that, according to what I know, Madam Lenny has a strong relationship with many other countries. If those strong countries join forces, then there's no way to break through
"When my friend sent me the video, I asked him to delete it immediately. I came here with a lot of sincerity. Since you've said so, I suppose we don't have to talk about the agreement anymore. I will leave Mexiland in a moment. I'd better not interfere with your business, lest I offend both parties," Waverly said coldly. "Who is your friend? If you don't tell me, I can only treat you as one of them. If you want to leave Mexiland, it won't be that easy," Thomas warned. "Joseph. It was Joseph who gave me the video," Waverly said and hung up. The phone rang with another call from Thomas. Waverly answered and her tone was impatient as she said, "Is there anything else?" "Why did Joseph do that? I don't have anything against him," Thomas didn't understand. "What he wants must be done. If you don't understand him, you can ask your friends about him. I have already told him not to do this, but you insisted on beating around the bush. According to my underst
Agnes smiled, "Okay." "Go rest," Waverly said and slowly closed the door. She stood by the window and looked at the traffic downstairs. Truth be told, she was quite far away and the road was so dark that she couldn't see much with her naked eyes. At most, she could feel the cars rushing by with their bright lights switched on. She wondered where the people in the cars were rushing to. Were they going home or going out to have fun? Did they have desires in their hearts or were they lost in pretense and living like a walking corpse, interacting with people every day? At the moment, she had no other choice but to march forward bravely. She didn't want to go back. She picked up her phone and blocked Bellamy's phone number with a cold and emotionless gaze. It was as if a huge weight had been lifted from her heart and she felt much more relaxed. She threw her phone on the bed and went to the bathroom to take a bath. After bathing, she laid on t
