Robin sat in front of the third-floor elevator door, waiting for his brother with a frigid expression. His fingertips gently tapped the sofa's velvety armrest. When the door opened, he looked straight at Rafael, who had stepped out of the elevator. His expression implied that Rafael should stop walking.Rafael, on the other hand, continued walking while looking down and keeping both hands in his jeans pockets. His stare was blank, as if he was contemplating something at every step.“I've said it multiple times. You are not permitted to enter this place. Did you purposefully drag my wife to make me angry?”Robin didn't lie to Poppy. He forbade Rafael from entering the third floor. As a result, Robin was furious with both Poppy and Rafael for breaking his rule. Rafael abruptly stopped moving his feet. He was taken aback when he saw Robin and immediately took his hand out of his jeans pocket. “Your wife, huh?” Rafael sneered; his voice was low, and Robin couldn't hear him.“I just dro
Although Rafael was not present, as long as he or another member of Luciano's family stayed at the mansion, the servants treated Poppy well. They behave very carefully in accordance with Robin's instructions.As a result, Poppy can freely visit the library to find the book she wants to read. Not the previous book, which contained general information for continuing life after divorce, but to avoid pregnancy.“Do I need to prepare snacks and warm tea to accompany you as you read a book, Madam?” Asked one of the servants, who saw Poppy enter the library and approached her quickly.“No, I don't need it. I'll only be here for a moment.” Poppy declined, softly driving the maid away.Poppy wants to find a book she shouldn't read. She doesn't want to draw attention, let alone have the maid suspect her and squeal on Robin.Robin does not give her a smartphone to use to surf the internet, so her access to information is limited to books. Living in a magnificent mansion resembling a palace and be
Poppy was initially afraid to divulge her secret because Rafael is also a member of Luciano's family. She was also unsure whether Dante had asked Rafael to observe her.However, Poppy can sense the sincerity emanating from her brother-in-law's brown eyes. And, haven't they become friends?Finally, she responded, “I'm just not ready to get pregnant and afraid of giving birth.”However, Poppy merely admitted to Rafael that she is unsure about her ability to nurture a child at her young age. She didn't say she wanted to postpone pregnancy because she was frightened of being killed by her husband after giving birth.“I understand you. I heard you'll be 23 years old in three months, or exactly in the next 87 days.”Poppy raised her eyebrows in amazement at her brother-in-law's statements. She even forgot her birthday. Rafael, on the other hand, is aware of her date of birth, even if it is not her true day of birth but rather the date of birth in her new identity.“How do you know my birthda
‘Use this contraceptive pill. However, I still recommend that you talk with my brother as soon as possible to determine the best timing to have a kid,’ Rafael stated after dinner yesterday evening.Poppy didn't ask Rafael how he acquired the contraceptive pill so soon. She believes that anyone involved in the underground business will be able to get anything they want.She saw two pill bottles in her hands. One bottle includes emergency contraceptives that can be used after intercourse, while the other bottle contains a daily contraceptive pill that prevents pregnancy.Poppy took a contraceptive pill and immediately consumed it. Then seek the best area to hide those two precious bottles in her ensuite bathroom.“I'll just hide it here. Mr. Robin cannot possibly crawl in a filthy area like this.” Finally, she chose to hide the two bottles in a small, under-the-towel cabinet.Donna has never cleaned Poppy's chamber since discovering her origins as a mafia slave. Poppy doesn't have to wo
Poppy immediately stopped moving. Looking for an excuse right away, she replied, “I'm going to the toilet.”Robin let out a deep sigh that indicated exhaustion. “That's right, I hadn't showered either. My body is really sticky. Prepare warm water for me,” he stated later.Poppy instantly got out of bed. However, her movements were halted by confusion.“No! Take off my clothing first, and then carry me to the bathroom!”Poppy's mouth dropped open abruptly. Is Robin playing a joke? How could she lift such a large body?“Can't you hear me?!” Robin snapped.However, for some reason, Poppy is more scared of Robin than normal. The man she is seeing right now is not like Robin, who often haunts her thoughts.“Okay, sir.”Poppy approached her husband, who was sitting languidly and appeared to be about to fall. She touched Robin's thigh because she couldn't see well in the darkness. The clothing he was wearing was also black.The sound of Robin's harsh breath hit Poppy's forehead as she reached
Poppy was quietly amazed and captivated by the unusual sensation she had just experienced for the first time. The kiss felt lovely, yet it was completely different from the intercourse they used to do every night, and it was exciting.Robin's lips were surprisingly soft and dense. Poppy unintentionally nipped his bottom lip teasingly, causing Robin to groan softly.“Sweet...,” Robin muttered after abruptly pulling his lips away. His voice was heavy and deep, but it did not seem menacing.Poppy's heart began to beat faster. Did Robin honestly say her lips were sweet? Did Robin, who is cold and like a statue who never shows any other expression than cynicism, actually say that?Poppy was understandably astonished. Alcohol has been shown to have the ability to transform a person's mindset quickly. However, the astonishment lasted only a short time.“Mr. Robin!” This time, Poppy's lips, which had been removed from the kiss, let out a loud voice in astonishment at Robin's rapid movement.R
Poppy then ran to the bathroom and searched all over her body for the mark of her husband's possession that had been there before but was now almost gone. There was no trace of the new mark Robin had left.“Impossible...”The nightgown Poppy wore last night should have been wet, but there is no sign of love fluid from her or her husband soaking the thin dress.All of Poppy's nightgowns have different patterns and designs. Robin won't be able to change her only nightgown.Poppy is still curious. She even picked up her dress and sniffed it, hoping for some trace of her husband's scent. But her sense of smell detected only the scent of the clothes.“How can I have such a dream? How can a dream feel so real?”She really wants to avoid Robin as much as possible. Was it possible for her to have a dream about him?“I had time to read a book about how violence causes trauma. Am I slowly going crazy because of my trauma?” Poppy mumbled, caressing her face restlessly with both palms.Poppy was
In the end, Poppy reluctantly accepted Rafael's offer. Her brother-in-law kept trying to persuade her, hoping that she could give Robin a break from his work routine for a while. Besides, there was nothing in the agreement that prohibited her from traveling. Rafael also mentioned that he had told Antonio about his plan to bring Poppy into the office. However, Poppy still felt uncomfortable relying solely on Antonio's approval.“I'm not sure about going with you. What if I stay home?” Poppy hesitated again as Rafael started the car. She sat fidgeting as if she wanted to get out of the car.“You'll be bored at home alone.” Rafael buckled Poppy's seat belt instead.Poppy's chest thumped violently as Rafael stepped on the gas pedal. She was both anxious to make Robin angry and excited to see the outside of the mansion.It had been a long time since she had seen a crowd of normal people, and she had never been allowed to leave Saul Martinez's building. Poppy was thrilled to be able to enj
Poppy was shocked to death. She immediately turned to Robin to request assistance in preventing Dante from killing Carita. It was not her death that she desired. The revenge must make her regret her actions for the rest of her life. If she dies quickly after committing a major crime, everything will be over. “Rob—” When she turned her head to the left, she was surprised to see Robin's face so close to her.“Hmm?” Robin replied calmly. He doesn't appear to care if Dante kills his wife's stepmother.She lowered her head to avoid his gaze, which appeared to be the same as when they were making love. “I don't want to see anyone dead in front of my eyes,” she said quietly.Robin let out a harsh sigh. Her request was particularly troublesome because he had to stop his grandfather. But this is the first time she has asked him for something directly. He wants to grant her wishes.“Mr. Dante... I’m not lying to you! All of this woman's statements are false!” Carita exclaimed, terrified, as sh
“Don't act surprised.” Robin whispered again, moving his face closer to Poppy's cheek.Her body scent is very seductive. His brain appears to be filled with drugs, making it difficult to distract from his wife. But she focused her attention on April rather than him.She already knew that his father doesn’t have any siblings. She's a little perplexed as to why Robin kept bothering and reprimanding her, despite the fact that she was only surprised briefly and unexpectedly.“You are such a liar! My husband doesn’t have siblings,” Carita sneered softly.April took a thick folded paper from her bag. She politely handed the paper to Luca, who then whispered something to Dante.“Go ahead,” Dante instructed April to continue talking.“Several years ago, an accident killed August's wife, Poppy's biological mother. Following that incident, August rarely cared for his daughter. I had offered to help take care of Poppy, but August declined because my house was in another city and quite far away.”
“D-Do not get too close.” Poppy pushed Robin. Her focus was on his face, which appeared to be leaning on her shoulder, rather than on the surprise he would deliver.“Do you want me to speak loudly so that everyone can hear?” He whispered.Poppy's shoulder and left head shuddered as she felt his breath against her neck. She shifted slightly to the right, but he drew her again.“Do you have anything else to say?”Robin excitedly pinched his wife's lips. “Take care of how you speak in front of my family.”His gaze remained fixed on her lips until his face approached slowly. Poppy, who saw his lips slightly open as if he was about to kiss her, quickly turned away.“I’m still talking to you. Are you avoiding me?”“You previously stated that you would speak, but you did not say anything clearly.” She simply glanced at her husband.Robin wasn't sure what to say anymore. He felt like he'd told her everything. However, his face remained drawn to her, as if he wanted to say something.Their bod
Poppy's face frowned briefly as she noticed a woman standing near Antonio. That woman closed her mouth dramatically, as if she couldn't believe her eyes when she saw her. She then burst out crying, her expression happy and moved.“Rose, Mommy misses you so much...”The woman claiming to be Poppy's mother walked slowly, as if hesitant to approach. Poppy stood up, still looking surprised. She burst into tears as she hugged her.“Mom?”“That's right, this is your mom.” That woman hugged Poppy and closed her eyes to hold back her tears.Poppy doesn't understand what's going on. She was completely unrelated to that woman. However, she was certain that Robin had instructed Antonio to ask that woman for assistance.“You arrived at the right time, Mother-in-law.” Robin nodded, his eyes blinking slowly, as he absorbed his role. He patted Poppy's back and her pretend mother.Even though he only spends time at Poppy's apartment, he discovers Dante's plan to present gifts to his wife.At first, R
Dante's jaw tightened. He dislikes it most when Robin begins to be disrespectful. His granddaughter-in-law and mother were moved, but Robin laughed at them.“Robin, be mindful of your attitude!” Dante scolded him.Even though Robin has stopped laughing, his mouth is still forming a smile. This irritated Carita as well. She has made extensive preparations for today. However, Robin Luciano was the only person who laughed at her perfect play.‘People say Robin is a terrible man, and that is true. He showed no sympathy for his phony wife,’ she thought.Poppy's prejudices and Flint's words were all true. Carita did work with Saul Martinez to imprison her on Solterra Island. She even spent a large sum of money to keep Poppy there.‘Without Robin Luciano, Stella would never have been able to leave Solterra Island. Now I have to kneel like this so that this stupid girl does not suspect me and use Robin against me.’All of the luxury she currently enjoys is the right of Stella Valentine, Poppy
“You... are already… here, Robin,” said Dante, nodding to Luca.Luca immediately helped Dante sit back, placing his stiff left hand on his lap. Dante is a left-handed user, which Poppy believes is a punishment from heaven because he constantly uses that hand to harm others.“I just returned home yesterday and can only visit you now,” Robin responded. Poppy noticed Dante's cruel gaze soften as he looked at his eldest grandson. He appears to adore his grandchildren, despite the fact that he has no regard for the grandchildren of those he has murdered.“I'm glad you're still getting along with your wife. I assumed you just pretended to get married because of my insistence.” Dante spoke in a low and unclear tone, but it was still understandable.“We're truly married.”Poppy gasped when Dante looked at her. She quickly relaxed her muscles so that she didn't appear to despise that man.“You heard from Luca, right? I have a gift for you.”“Yes, Grandpa.” She shuddered when she called Dante'
They finally arrived at Dante's house when the sky was nearly completely dark. Robin proved his words by holding her in his passionate embrace for hours, purposefully keeping Antonio waiting for a long time.Poppy nearly fell while getting out of the car and grabbed Robin's arm. Her legs are severely weakened as a result of her husband's actions.“I'm sorry.” Poppy immediately let go of her hand once she regained her balance. However, Robin drew her closer.Robin walked with twine around her waist as they headed to Dante's room, occasionally grinning and glancing at the man behind him. Antonio followed in their footsteps, keeping a safe distance and not approaching too closely.“Poppy!” exclaimed an excited man's voice.Poppy abruptly stopped walking and turned her head in the direction of the sound. Her face lit up when she saw Rafael walk quickly towards her.“Don't stop walking!” Robin ordered, dragging on her shoulder and not allowing her to greet her brother-in-law.“But...” Popp
Poppy's happiness faded gradually. Her mind became preoccupied with understanding Robin's contradictory words.‘Jealous, but with no feelings for me? Isn't that weird?’“Do not think too much! You must only think of me,” Robin said in a heavy, deep voice.He pulled Poppy's pants as she crawled down. He raised her legs until they bent between his head, then buried his head in the center.“Sir, please don’t... that... that... dirty...”Nonetheless, she accepts whatever he does to her.At the height of his satisfaction, Robin whispered, “Oh, I really miss this...” Then, after unconsciously revealing the contents of his heart, he said, “I just miss your body, not you.”Even though it hurts, she appears to be adjusting to his difficult way of expressing his true feelings.***This weekend afternoon, Robin Luciano was still in Poppy's apartment. His face was radiant, and he was softly humming in the bathroom.He saw his reflection in the large mirror. Patting his muscular stomach and then s
Poppy moaned softly while attempting to free herself. Her eyes remained closed, and she couldn't move due to the large body that was wrapped around her.“Uh, let me go...” She groaned as she pushed something from her stomach.‘Huh? A hand?’When she realized her body was trapped in someone's embrace, her eyelids opened immediately. She was supposed to be alone in her new apartment. So, who is sleeping behind her and hugging her?She felt panicked and wanted to get out of bed. However, that person hugged her tighter, rubbing her face from behind while she was only wearing a thin nightgown.‘When did I change my nightgown?!’ She screamed in her head, terrified that the intruder in her room would wake up and attack her.Even though she was only half asleep, she was certain that she had fallen asleep immediately after preparing dinner for Robin the night before. She had not changed her clothes, and the room door was clearly locked.She slowly removed her right hand from the grip of that p
