"Let me go, Hmm..." Flora was tightly held in his embrace, her lips losing their freedom in that moment, while his hands had already reached her chest, sliding over her body.To silence her screams, Maxwell kissed her lips, one hand encircling her body while the other attacked various parts of her body. It wasn't until she gradually softened under his teasing that he released her lips and began kissing her neck, her shoulders...The two entangled bodies rolled in the water. Although Flora was aroused and overheated by his teasing, she didn't want to find relief in this way and started struggling again.While struggling, she didn't forget to use her sharp nails to battle against Maxwell's back, leaving intricate and complex claw marks that were not easily recognizable, but indisputably etched onto his back!The pain made Maxwell's handsome brows furrow slightly. He lifted her up and carried her out of the bathroom, throwing her onto the big bed, pressing his body tightly against hers.
Maxwell casually glanced at her, greeted Mrs. Smith, and then pulled out a chair to sit down, starting to eat breakfast.Flora discreetly glanced at Mrs. Smith, who didn't look too pleased. After taking care of everything, she quietly left the dining room and escaped to the backyard. Maxwell watched her flee and a trace of mocking contempt appeared on his handsome face.Once Flora left, Mrs. Smith couldn't help but look up and stare at Maxwell, "Maxwell, I let her go, why did you bring her back?"Maxwell had anticipated Mrs. Smith asking him this, and chuckled, "Aunt, I didn't want to let her go yet. In due time, I will take care of her. But it's not as simple as just letting her go.""What do you intend to do?" Mrs. Smith grew anxious upon hearing his words. "Maxwell, you can't go too far. After all, this is a society ruled by law. Just punish her and be done with it.""Aunt, rest assured, I know what I'm doing," Maxwell reassured her with a smile on his face."If you know what you'r
Although it was somewhat reluctant, Flora had to interrupt her and raise her voice, saying, "Miss Chiyoko, I have brought you some food."Chiyoko turned her face slightly and flashed a beautiful smile at her, softly saying, "Thank you, just leave it on the table." After speaking, she turned her head back and continued playing the piano.Although she appeared calm and normal at the moment, Flora still felt a bit afraid as she hesitated while walking inside with the tray. She placed the meals on the table and stood up.As she stood up, the sound of the piano weakened until it finally stopped. Instinctively, Flora applauded, "Well, that was beautiful!" Her clapping hands froze in mid-air when she saw Chiyoko gazing at her intently."Thank you." Chiyoko stood up from the piano, still with a smile.Flora then relaxed her hands and said with a chuckle, "Miss, please enjoy your meal. I'll come back later to collect the dishes.""Stay with me, okay?" Chiyoko suddenly looked at her with hopefu
As Flora wondered, Nancy had already come up to her, laughing coldly, "Miss Chiyoko is the future mistress, you better serve her well."After speaking, she walked past Flora. In Nancy's subconscious, she never regarded Chiyoko as the future mistress. She always looked down on promiscuous women like her. And since Maxwell locked her up on the third floor, he no longer cared, giving Nancy the perfect opportunity to bully her.Flora was even more frightened by her cold words, rubbing her arms and walking into the house.In the afternoon, while Flora was tidying up Oliver's room, she sat on the wool carpet to rest. Inadvertently, her hand touched the broken half of a necklace as she reached into her pocket for a tissue. She took it out and examined it carefully in her palm.This half of a necklace was worthless to her, but Maxwell had always wanted it. Flora didn't give him this half of the necklace for two reasons. On one hand, she was afraid he would think she was deceiving him, which w
Maxwell's expression changed once again. This time, he didn't circle the sofa with her. He grabbed her and clenched his teeth, his mouth twitching with anger. "Listen up, no! Get out of here!""You... let go of me first, and I'll leave right away," Flora pleaded fearfully, slapping at his grip on her.After a moment, Maxwell suddenly let go, and Flora breathed a sigh of relief. She turned and hurried towards the door to escape.The sky grew dark and Flora held the prepared meal from Nancy, ready to serve it to Chiyoko. Just as she was about to reach the main house door, she instinctively called out to Maxwell who was about to leave."Big Young Master, dinner is ready.""Not hungry," Maxwell replied without looking back. He opened the car door and got in, and the car sped off towards the main gate."Starving yourself to death is your own choice!" Flora spat in the direction where the car disappeared, and then continued walking towards the third floor. She had been inside at noon and ha
Wiping away the tears that had formed on her face from fear or urgency, Flora returned to Chiyoko's bedroom. Stepping into the room, she saw Chiyoko just coming out of the bathroom. She was wearing a white camisole nightgown, her hair disheveled, and she had a serene smile on her face. She didn't look at all like someone who was injured, and there was no sign of any wounds on her body.Could it be true, as Nancy said, that Miss Chiyoko was just playing around? Oh my god! She finally understood why Chiyoko repeatedly warned her not to let Maxwell come to see her at night. She was truly a lunatic at night!"Miss Chiyoko..." Flora cautiously called out.Her hair was still dripping with water, and her face was pale and ghastly. She looked... just like a female ghost!"You deceived me..." Chiyoko stared at her, murmuring as she took steps towards her. "You didn't help me... Maxwell didn't come. I waited for him all day, but he didn't come...""Miss Chiyoko, the Big Young Master..." Flora s
Flora's heart skipped a beat. She thought of something. Mrs. Smith wasn't such a terrible person. She had always been kind, peaceful, and caring. If Flora wanted to escape from the Smith Family mansion and avoid the deadly punishment that Maxwell was about to deliver, only Mrs. Smith could help her.As such, Flora's body leaned towards the ground, curling up and sobbing, pretending to be in unbearable pain and suffering from a relapse of her condition.Sure enough, Mrs. Smith panicked and exclaimed, "Nancy, what happened to her? Why did she suddenly convulse like this? Oh... Doctor Alan, come quickly and check on her!""Ma'am, Doctor Alan is busy stitching and can't come right now," Betty said urgently when she saw Flora in such pain. "Ma'am, let's take Flora to the hospital. Doctor Alan won't be done that quickly.""Alright...hurry! Hurry and call the driver..." Mrs. Smith urged.Flora secretly breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Mrs. Smith say that. She quietly settled down, ev
"Who can catch up with my 'BMW'?" the beautiful woman patted the nearly scrapped truck and spoke arrogantly. Seeing how worried Flora was, she showed some mercy and said, "Remember, you promised to repay me, come sit in the front!"Flora was overjoyed and clumsily climbed down from the container and then struggled to climb into the passenger seat of the car. The beautiful woman tried to start the engine for a while, but the car wouldn't start. Flora's excited face instantly fell.The beautiful woman glanced at her and said impatiently, "What's the rush? Warming up before starting is a must for my precious baby."Flora wiped away the cold sweat on her face, and just as she was about to collapse, the car finally ignited and hit the road, which brought some peace to her heart.The car ran on the road for over one hour and finally arrived at a relatively remote village. It stopped in front of an old-style courtyard.The beautiful woman got out of the car and shouted, "Mom! I brought a nan
"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. If my mom hea
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
