Poppy's frown deepened. Her face was filled with panic.

“Why isn't it there? Did Donna clean the bathroom while I wasn't there?”

Poppy shook her head slowly. She'd made it clear that Donna didn't have to clean her en suite bathroom. She often told Donna not to clean her room before going to bed.

The maid only collected dirty rags, while Poppy did the majority of the cleaning. Donna was also pleased to reduce her workload upon her request.

“Impossible... I clearly placed it here....”

A knock on the door sounded.

“Are you asleep in there? I do not have much time to wait for you.”

Poppy was startled by Robin's heavy, firm voice. She swiftly pulled her hand from underneath the towel cabinet, slightly scratching the pointed corner of the bottom of the cupboard.

“Here, Mr—” Poppy almost addressed Robin as sir i

    Antonio and the doctor walked into the same room as Robin a moment later.“Sir, I will prepare medicine for Mrs. Poppy.” Antonio said goodbye and led out the man who had spoken with Robin.Capri watched them leave, then sat on a chair near Robin after Antonio closed the door.“Why are you looking for me? If you want to talk nonsense about my wife, you should leave immediately.”Capri ignored Robin's offensive words because he was used to hearing them. “Forgive me if this is a presumptuous question, but where did you meet Mrs. Poppy, sir?”Robin gave Capri a critical look. “You know it's presumptuous, yet you dare to ask?!”Doctor Capri was indeed trustworthy. However, Poppy's background should not have been revealed while she was still his wife. Only those who worked at the mansion were permitted to know the true facts.“In any case, sir, I need to know so that I can provide appropriate treatment.

He had a daughter that was the same age as her. When he saw Robin Luciano's wife in distress, he couldn't just stand by and watch.“I apologize, sir, but please think about what I am saying. If Mrs. Poppy's mental condition improves, you will benefit as well.”“Get—” Robin was going to dismiss the chatty Capri, but the doctor hadn't completed what he needed to say.“I'm sure Mr. Dante is still dubious of your unexpected marriage. You may be able to make a valid argument for replacing Mrs. Poppy as your wife, but Mr. Dante will undoubtedly get more suspicious.”When Capri observed Robin's uncommon reaction in response to his critiques, he added, “You don't want the great plan you've been looking forward to for so long to fail just because you don't want to do anything frivolous for Mrs. Poppy,

    “Stay away from me!” A woman yelled in an alley near a towering structure in the middle of the night.Rose was trapped in a cul-de-sac. The narrow, gloomy road was only illuminated by the weak glow of flickering city lamps. The moist and putrid odor permeated the air, along with the remains of garbage littered on the street corners. Only Rose's footsteps could be heard echoing against the towering, solid stone walls.Her legs are exhausted after running continually. She escaped from Flint, the mafia boss' right-hand man.Rose's plan almost succeeded when she boarded a cargo ship. However, escape from the island known as Solterra is not easy. There are too many "big boss" men, including Flint.

    “You just have to do what I say.” He gazed at Rose's miserable expression. “Be my wife and bear my child.”Rose's mouth opened wide. She still couldn't believe what he said. They're like chalk and cheese. Why would he offer something so absurd to a stranger like her?“Are you kidding?”Rose does not think she is ugly. It's only that her appearance always looks shabby since she's enslaved up in a building controlled by the Big Boss and used for human trafficking.“Do I look like I'm joking?”Rose shook her head quickly. His attractive and cold gaze suggests that he does not enjoy making jokes.“Mr. Robin Luciano!”Rose's was slightly eased by Saul's exclamation from a distance. Saul bowed respectfully to Robin. Rose was stunned when she saw him. The big boss, who never bends his face in front of others, unexpectedly turns out to be a servant to Robin.Rose had heard that an influential businessman would be visiting this island. He is opening the country's largest nightclub and will hir

    Saul gritted his teeth and signaled to his people to back off. “We will transact inside.” He looked directly into Robin's eyes.“Good choice.”Robin instructed his men to lead Rose onto the helicopter. Other helicopters were also deployed to transfer the women Robin ordered.Soon afterwards, Saul and Robin emerged from the building. Now, the big boss appears to be happier than before. Who wouldn't be delighted to get that much money?As Robin entered the same helicopter as Rose, he asked, “You can read, right?”Rose was kidnapped when she was eighteen. To be more exact, after her high school graduation. Of course, she can read and write.Rose, on the other hand, wasn't even offended that she was perceived as uneducated. She was still perplexed and horrified by the situation that had just happened.“I can,” Rose replied softly.“Read this.” Robin handed her a yellow map. Rose instantly followed his orders without saying anything.Rose's new identification documents can be seen on the m

    Poppy gasped as she heard the soft creak of the door behind her. She turned back, wiping her tears away.“Who's there?”There was no single answer. However, Poppy was certain she heard someone step away.She scrambled to her feet, then staggered and nearly fell. Her legs tingled from kneeling so long. Fortunately, her hands acted spontaneously to support her body.“Rafael?” Poppy called softly.After the tingling in her legs subsided, she dashed towards the door. Her gaze darted to the left and right along the corridor, but she didn’t see anyone.“I'm sure I heard someone walking fast out of this place,” she muttered, puzzled.Donna could be seen emerging from another room at the opposite end of the corridor. Poppy waved at her personal maid, who was patting her mouth while yawning loudly.“Donna, come here!” Poppy exclaimed.Donna rushed up to her mistress. “Could I help you, ma'am?”“Did you pass in front of this room before?”Donna looked perplexed, but she continued to make Poppy

    The large frame of the painting depicts the face Poppy misses the most. Although she has few memories of the beautiful woman in the dark blue dress in the painting, she dearly loves her.“I discovered this painting at an exhibition hosted by a friend of my business partner. When I first saw it, I was surprised by the face in the painting... it looks very similar to you, doesn't it?”‘Of course... because she is my biological mother....’Poppy struggled to respond, her mouth locked. She was surprised to find the painting, which had always hung in her parents' living room, now in Robin Luciano's mansion. Her home was even on the other side of this country.“Even the color of her eyes is similar to yours: deep black, mysterious, yet very beautiful... her beauty is distinct from that of people in our country.” Rafael indirectly complimented Poppy.Poppy’s thoughts, however, remained on the painting. “Where... did you get this painting?” Finally, she could express her curiosity.“I bought

    ‘A woman like me?’ That question kept ringing in Poppy's head. She didn't know what kind of woman she was to Robin Luciano. But his words clearly hurt her and lowered her self-esteem.Poppy lay naked on the bed, eyes closed as usual, gritting her teeth every time Robin jerked on her pleasure center. She lay motionless as a statue as Robin forced himself to leave his seed in her womb.‘Now I understand why Mr. Robin blindfolded me. He didn't want to show his face while struggling to get pleasure.’Tonight was very different... there was no pleasure at all, despite the fact that Robin treated her normally. She only remembered every cruel word her husband had said. She smiled bitterly. Not realizing that the man on top of her didn't like her smile. While they were making love, her smile was out of sync and appeared to be asking for mercy.Robin cupped her cheek until her smile faded.
