Standing before her, Maxwell cruelly smirked, "Don't worry, you won't fare any better than him." He needed to use cruel methods to numb his already wavering heart, otherwise, he might end up being the one defeated!

Flora crawled forward frantically, falling heavily to the ground, then holding onto his leg, lifting her tear-streaked face pleadingly, "Maxwell! I was wrong! It's all my fault, it's my responsibility alone, please spare him! I beg you!"

"Oh, really? Didn't you say before that you knew nothing? How come today you're willing to shoulder all the blame?" Maxwell sneered, looking down at her. The deeper her love for Henry, the more he resented her!

"What will it take for you to let him go?!" Flora screamed in despair. The thought of Henry suffering at the hands of this cruel man twisted her heart in pain.

Maxwell turned around, took the disc off the player, and threw it beside her, mocking, "This is a keepsake for you. Let him go? Don't ever expect it in this lifetime, just lik

    Facing these sympathetic looks, Flora just smiled and lowered her head, playing with a small cat by her feet. Just as she had squatted down, Nancy's loud voice rang out from behind."Flora! You finally managed to get up from that luxurious bed?! I was about to come and fetch you if you didn't!"Flora startled, quickly stood up from the ground without looking back at Nancy, and looked around for something to do. After a while, Nancy got tired of scolding and left, telling Flora that she'd better not pretend to be lazy.The maids noticed that Flora's hand was still injured, so they only assigned her the lightest tasks. Flora ended up folding and tidying clothes, not able to do any physically demanding work.In the evening, Flora entered Oliver's room and heard the sound of rushing water coming from the bathroom. She hurriedly went to the closet, intending to arrange the clothes before he came out. As she passed by the glass table, her gaze was suddenly drawn to the laptop screen and spe

    Oliver had already guessed that this was the question she wanted to ask, ever since he saw her looking at the pictures on the computer earlier. So he wasn't surprised, and he calmly replied, "I don't know the secret behind it, but it's a necklace that has caused quite a stir in the underworld. So, I advise you once again, it's best to hand over the necklace to me to avoid unnecessary trouble.""If you don't know its meaning, why do you insist on obtaining it?" Flora didn't understand."I can't tell you that," Oliver said, staring at her. "Just remember that it's a curse, and as I've said before, I'm willing to bear that curse for you.""I didn't lie to you. I don't know where I put the necklace. I had no idea it held so many secrets, so...""So you just lost it haphazardly?" Oliver frowned and then asked, "Tell me, where did you get it from?""My...my classmate gave it to me. She didn't know anything about it either, she just gave it to me," Flora answered honestly. Not wanting him to

    Normally, Flora enjoyed playing video games like a boy and often pestered Henry to play with her, earning her scoldings from Mrs. White. After each scolding, Henry would comfort her and try various ways to make her happy."Flora! You little brat!" Robin, frantic, jumped in place and cursed loudly.Flora laughed triumphantly, "Robin, watch carefully, see how you end up lying down!"As she was about to give him a big punishment, the room suddenly brightened, accompanied by the sound of the door being pushed open. Startled, Flora quickly jumped up from the floor and looked in surprise at the unexpected appearance of Maxwell! Wasn't he supposed to be in W City? Wasn't he not coming back?"Aha! I won! Flora, you dummy! See that! I won!" Robin raised his hands, jubilantly boasting in the manner of a triumphant person, too excited to close his mouth. In his excitement, he completely ignored Maxwell's presence.Flora stole a glance at the expressionless Maxwell, feeling a tingling sensation o

    This room was not pitch black like the others; a yellow wall lamp illuminated the space. Flora's heart had been pounding, and now it seemed like it might leap out of her chest.Trembling, she opened the door halfway and saw a woman sitting on the luxurious large bed in the middle of the room. Her disheveled hair added a touch of disorder, yet even in the dim light, her fair face appeared exquisite. Wrapped in a snow-white robe that highlighted her slender figure, sitting on the equally white bed, she genuinely resembled a ghost from a horror film!At this moment, the woman was staring at Flora with a surprised expression, then waved at her."Come here, help me, please?"Flora had her hands on the door, ready to escape at any moment. She opened her mouth and asked in a voice that almost didn't sound like her own, "Who are you? What do you want me to do?"Oh my! Looking at her, Flora felt like she might faint."Tell Maxwell that I love him, I have always loved him," the woman spoke soft

    Looking at Maxwell in his current state, Flora could sense his anger reaching its peak. She couldn't imagine what punishment awaited her next. Suddenly, Betty's words came to mind—how he almost shot the maid. Could he possibly aim a gun at her head?Dragging Flora into his bedroom, Maxwell threw her to the floor, his furious gaze glaring at her intensely.Terrified, Flora struggled to suppress her panic and began explaining, "Big Young Master, I went to the third floor to find Mimi for the Madam. Mimi was indeed on the third floor, as you just saw." Thinking about the unfortunate fate of Mimi, Flora felt a wave of regret.Maxwell bent down, looking down at her, and gritted his teeth, "Was it just to find Mimi? Miss White, have you been longing for the third floor all along? Do you want to move up and live with that woman?""No! No, please!" Flora urgently shook her head, the thought of those days without even seeing sunlight terrifying her. However, today she had gained something valu

    Glancing at the first aid kit in her left arm bend and then at the fruit knife in her right hand, Flora closed her eyes. In her heart, she cursed herself. Was this decision so difficult? What was she afraid of? Did she still have feelings for him?The last question stumped her. Feelings for him? How could that be possible? How could she possibly have any feelings for such a cruel person? She couldn't bring herself to do it, only fearing that she might be silenced by the members of the Smith Family!Flora took a painful breath, but in the end, she couldn't drive the fruit knife into his heart. The knife slipped from her fingertips and fell onto the carpet. She quickly opened the first aid kit, took out an antiseptic solution, and began tending to his wounds.The wounds weren't too severe, but there was a considerable amount of blood. Flora stopped the bleeding, applied the antiseptic solution, and clumsily bandaged the wounds. It was far from professional, but it would have to do.Afte

    Maxwell released her, turned around, and sat on the sofa in the middle of the bedroom. Once again, with a commanding tone, he said, "Come here!"His sharp gaze fixed on Flora. Proud as he was, he disliked seeing anyone daring to defy him, especially the woman before him!Flora stood still, not reacting. She knew that being called over was never a good sign. Suddenly remembering the last time Joshua had called her over, the scene where he pervertedly forced her to undress for him, she still had lingering fear. She was afraid of hearing such commands!Maxwell's patience had reached its limit. Just before he erupted, Flora hesitantly walked over. She stood in front of him, looking resolute, waiting for his orders.One of Maxwell's arms rested on the edge of the sofa, and the other hand took the TV remote to turn it on. He spoke casually, "Hurry up and change the dressing on my wound, I need to go out."Flora was stunned. Change the dressing? He called her over just to have her change the

    Throughout the day, Betty kept staring at Flora with an inquisitive look, as if her mere existence was a great mystery. Even while working, she would glance at Flora from time to time.Feeling uncomfortable with Betty's scrutiny, Flora rolled her eyes and said in exasperation, "Betty, will you ever stop? Don't worship me like a deity, okay?!""I don't worship you like a deity, I see you as a ghost..." Betty murmured. "I can't help but feel that you're not real, even though you have body temperature." As she spoke, Betty reached out and touched Flora's face.Feeling overwhelmed, Flora turned around, thinking that she should keep her distance from Betty. After taking a few steps, she turned back without much hope and gossiped, "Betty, how long has that woman been locked up here?"Betty looked around and, seeing that no one was there, whispered, "She has been locked up for over a year.""For so long?" Flora gasped.If she had been locked up for over a year and wasn't released, did Maxwel

    "Who are you exactly?" Flor asked in a stern tone once again, half of her body forced to lie on his legs, no longer struggling or resisting, because she knew it would be futile. Deep down, she was reluctant to let go of his body!"I am your lover, your husband," Maxwell whispered in her ear, holding her body close again and assessing her rapidly changing expression. There was excitement in his heart as he said those words, and he reached out to tidy her clothes."It's not possible..." Flora shook her head in horror and said, "My husband is Henry!"Maxwell glared at her angrily and asked, "I was just about to ask you, how did you become Henry's wife?" The hand that was once caressing her tightened its grip, causing Flora to wince in pain. She furrowed her brows tightly, enduring the pain he inflicted on her."I..." Flora tried to speak, but Maxwell interrupted her, his voice icy as he said, "What has Henry done to you? Tell me!"Flora stared at him, anxious and bewildered, shaking her

    In the President's office of the Smith Family Group, Joshua cautiously presented his work report to Maxwell. Ever since Flora died, he no longer dared to be negligent in his work or treat Maxwell with a disdainful attitude out of guilt.He had even quickly married to prove that he had long given up any fantasies about Flora and never had any intention of competing with Maxwell for her.Maxwell quickly skimmed through the report and handed it back to him calmly, saying, "From now on, you can make your own decisions regarding these projects. You don't have to ask me anymore.""Oh... alright." Joshua nodded obediently, clutching the report, and hurriedly walked towards the door. Meeting Maxwell had become a mental torment for him since two years ago. He was afraid, so he always wanted to escape!After Joshua left, Maxwell packed up and prepared to go home. His gaze involuntarily fell on Flora's photo on his desk. He couldn't bear to look away for a long time. Now, going home was no longe

    Two years later.It was spring, the season when flowers bloomed. Inside a luxurious mansion, roses were blooming beautifully. Pink petals fluttered, decorating the green grass.Two children, who looked almost identical and like angels, were laughing and playing on the grass, chasing each other in the sea of pink flowers.They appeared to be about two years old, with blinking big eyes and fair skin. The most enchanting feature was their sparkling eyes. The only difference between their little faces was that the boy had a touch of masculinity, while the girl exuded a sweet charm.A nanny stood nearby, carefully watching over them, not daring to look away for a moment, afraid that the two little angels might fall or collide. From the nanny's expression, one could tell that these little angels were of high status.At that moment, the sound of a car approaching could be heard from the entrance. Soon after, a silver car slowly drove into the yard and stopped in front of the main house. The

    The sun rose as usual, and after a night of turmoil, the Smith Family mansion remained engulfed in a somber atmosphere. Maxwell sat on the bed, eyes wide open, unable to sleep. With Mrs. Smith's consent, Darren gave him a sleeping pill.This tactic proved effective; Maxwell soon fell asleep, entering a deep slumber until the sunset.Upon waking, Maxwell's gaze was sharp. His first command to Darren was, "Go and bring Flora back."Darren thought he might be delirious from sleep, cautiously saying, "Big Young Master, Miss Flora... she's already...""Even if she's dead, bring her back!" Maxwell roared, abruptly sitting up from the bed. The sudden burst of anger startled everyone present!Even in death, he wanted Flora back by his side. They had promised not to part in this lifetime, yet she left him just days after making that promise. She was his wife, forever!"Maxwell..." Mrs. Smith comforted him by patting his shoulder. "The dead cannot come back to life; don't be like this. Flora is

    Maxwell's expression froze, and his anger erupted instantly from within him. He shouted, "What did you say? Say it again if you dare!" Flora was dead? Who dared to say that she was dead? Who dared to let her die?Everyone knew that his shout, his anger, was just an attempt to avoid and mask the truth. What's the use of refusing to admit it? Flora wouldn't come back to life because of this, she wouldn't return to his side because of this!"Big Young Master, this is the truth. Miss Flora was killed by Chiyoko Tokugawa!" Darren reiterated this painful fact, restraining the danger of being beaten up by Maxwell. When he received this news, he was also shocked and immediately came to personally inform Maxwell instead of telling him over the phone. He was afraid that Maxwell might do something irrational and harmful!"It's impossible! Chiyoko doesn't have the guts!" Maxwell shook his head and spoke coldly. His body was already trembling so much that he couldn't stand steadily, leaning agains

    Joshua's legs gave way, and his strong body fell to the ground. It took him a while before he struggled to prop himself up and stumbled into the room where Flora was.On the makeshift operating table, he saw Flora lying quietly on the bed, covered in a thin white silk sheet. Her once prominent belly was now flat."Flora!" Joshua's mind went blank as he rushed forward, frantically examining Flora, who lay peacefully on the bed. Was she dead? What had he done? He had caused harm to Flora! Even if he hated her, he had never thought of using such a cruel method to harm her!Trembling, he lifted the thin sheet covering Flora. She was dressed in a set of bright white silk pajamas, stained with traces of blood. Her face had turned deathly pale, and her hands were alternately placed on her flat stomach.Overwhelmed with shock, Joshua fainted. In his last moments of consciousness, he thought about how Maxwell would punish him. Flora might never forgive her even in the afterlife!Philip immedia

    Flora stared at Joshua, who unexpectedly appeared in her bedroom. Startled, she took a step back and braced herself against the desk, barely keeping her trembling body steady. She lamely asked, "What did you say?"Joshua anxiously repeated, "Big Brother has been captured by the Yota Gang. He's now being held in a villa in City W. Chiyoko said she wants to see you, otherwise..." Joshua couldn't continue speaking and instead let silence take over. He lowered his head slightly, hiding his emotions beneath his eyelids."It's impossible! Maxwell called me just two hours ago!" Flora screamed, her eyes red and her body trembling slightly. It was unclear whether she was angry or devastated. She stared fixedly at Joshua with wide eyes, as if he was lying, intentionally deceiving her. How could Maxwell, who was so cautious, fall into someone else's hands so easily? She didn't believe it!Joshua urgently pressed his finger against her lips and said, "Flora, please don't be so loud.

    Chiyoko stood at the entrance of the Smith Family Group building, looking up at the luxurious structure in front of her. In the end, she couldn't control her actions and walked into the lobby.The receptionist stood up and politely smiled at her, saying, "Hello, miss. How can I assist you?" Although her tone was polite, her gaze couldn't help but wander over Chiyoko's body.Having adapted to this mixture of surprise and contempt over the past two days, Chiyoko was no longer as sensitive. She lifted her golden-framed glasses and calmly said, "Could you please find Maxwell for me?"The receptionist lowered her head apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Chiyoko. Mr. Maxwell has instructed that due to your recent high-profile appearances, to avoid any scandals, he is unable to meet with you in the short term."The receptionist's words were polite, but the disdain in her tone was hard to conceal. Chiyoko could naturally sense it, causing her anger to flare up. She couldn't believe that

    Flora, startled, instinctively asked, "Who is it?" As soon as she saw a couple naked on the screen, she quickly closed the laptop, without closely examining who it was. Now, after Kevin mentioned it, she was really curious."Just see for yourself," Kevin chuckled.Flora opened the laptop again, continuing to watch the embarrassing scene that made her blush. When she saw the figures clearly, her face was covered with a look of shock.Rubbing her eyes vigorously, yes, it was indeed Chiyoko and Philip! It was them? Flora asked in astonishment, looking at the silent phone, "How do you have... um... this kind of video with them?""It's everywhere on the internet now. I just randomly downloaded it from a website, and the first thing I thought of was to show it to you. Aren't I so considerate?" Kevin proudly invited attention.Flora slapped her flushed and heated face with her hand, unkindly saying, "Although it is indeed surprising, you didn't have to think of showing it to me first.""It's
