Keenan immediately sat down in his swivel chair. He exhaled sharply as he thought about the fate of Sharlynn, who had been abused by the father who was supposed to protect her."You want to talk to me about something serious?" Richie's voice, which had just entered the office, broke Keenan's reverie. He stared at the figure of a handsome man with a strong and dashing body in front of him. At first glance, he thought his niece was not wrong in choosing a replacement husband, considering Richie's skillful actions in protecting the Kaufman family."Seriously, sit down," Keenan said, pointing to the chair before him.Richie complied, pulling up the chair before his master and throwing his buttocks back slightly with apprehension."What do you want me to do?" asked Richie cautiously. "Is there an out-of-town mission I have to go on today?"Richie's barrage of questions distracted the subject he was trying to change. But Keenan was not concerned."That's not what I wanted to talk about," K
"Open the door, or I'll smash your windshield!" A man's voice from outside the car.Hearing the threatening words, Albert was forced to pull the 'Lock Door' and let Sharlynn open the car door."Get me out of here! I don't want to be in a car with that bad man!" Sharlynn spontaneously rushed to hug the male figure."Miss, how could you be with that man?" The baritone voice was very recognizable to Sharlynn; she looked up and found Richie's face."Richie, get me away from this bad man!" Sharlynn pleaded. Richie was silent, staring at Albert, who was getting out of the car and circling the front."Stay away from that strange man!" Albert pulled Sharlynn's wrist, moving her away from Richie's body."Damn, man! Let go of me!" Sharlynn swung the bag and smashed it right on Albert's head. There was a low groan, and he let go of Sharlynn's wrist.The girl ran back and hid behind Richie's back as if asking for protection. Albert, not accepting Sharlynn's treatment, moved again and was about t
"Just a status on paper?" asked Richie for reassurance. "Without interfering with each other's business?" Sharlynn nodded with a twinkle in her eye. It was as if she hoped the man before her would take her up on her offer."We will meet tomorrow morning. I will draw up a contract on paper. If you agree, you can sign it, and we will get married. But if you don't agree to the contract terms, there will be no wedding," Richie said firmly and then walked away, leaving Sharlynn with a beaming face.When she realized Richie was no longer in front of her, she turned around and half shouted at the man whose back was slightly bent."Of course, I'll agree to the terms of your agreement! What matters to me now is that we get married!" shouted Sharlynn with a beaming face. Her head was spinning with the thought that she would soon take revenge on Julian and Odette for their blatant betrayal.That night, Sharlynn looked happy. Her smile did not fade with each step she took into the mansion. Too i
For some reason, after signing her contract with Richie, Sharlynn seemed more and more confident. She finally returned to the Eisenhauer family's main mansion following her uncle's advice."Mom, where's that spoiled brat?" Odette asked Rolanda once they were in the room. Assisted by two people from the boutique, Odette stood in front of a full-length mirror wearing a sleeveless, high-necked wedding gown. Her two breasts seemed to jump out."Maybe she went to calm down. Tomorrow is her wedding day with Julian. Of course, she must lament her misfortune," Rolanda replied, making Odette laugh with glee. She imagined her half-sister's pitiful face."I had prepared a surprise for her tomorrow. Since I have annulled my marriage to Julian, I want her to see my intimacy with Julian. That pervert Albert is perfect for Sharlynn. I'm sure that man will make hell for that spoiled child," Odette said, making Rolanda laugh again, this time louder and filling every corner of the room."You're right
Kaufman family mansion.Sharlynn was in her room, standing in front of the mirror. Her slender body was clad in a simple, sleeveless, long silk wedding gown with only straps tied around her shoulders. A diamond necklace with a square emerald pendant encircled her thin neckline. Her heart ached as she saw her body wrapped in a simple gown. The dream wedding she had imagined was ruined by betrayal. Her eyes heated until they were red."Sharlynn, you are beautiful." Adriana pulled back the hair that covered the girl's flushed cheeks. There were diamond and emerald earrings left by her late mother. "Whatever you wear still makes you beautiful because you are so beautiful."Sharlynn smiled. Either she was smiling because she was happy on her humble wedding day or because of Adriana's praise."Thank you, Auntie," Sharlynn said in a low voice."Smile. This is your wedding day. Think of it as a marriage without a contract. You must convince your heart that this is a sacred marriage based on
When the head waiter did not answer, he was at a loss for an explanatory sentence that Heinz could accept.But no one could prevent it. The newlyweds decided to enter the back of the mansion where the reception party was being held.Heinz looked shocked. He searched his daughter's body from head to toe. Then, it shifted to Sharlynn's side. The male figure standing next to his daughter was wearing a black tuxedo."Mr. Heinz, we have come to ask for your blessing. Today, we are officially married," Richie said boldly. Heinz was utterly stunned by Richie's words."What? Married?" Heinz pointed to Richie's chest."That's right, Dad. We're already married. We came to ask for your blessing," Sharlynn said.Heinz could be seen clenching his lips tightly together with a flushed face. His chest rumbled violently as he saw and heard his biological daughter married to a man who only worked as a bodyguard for the Kaufman family."There is nothing wrong with Julian choosing Odette as his wife. Yo
"You already know my apartment is small." Richie's voice broke Sharlynn's reverie. She didn't even realize that she was standing on the doorstep of her contract husband's apartment. "I don't want to hear any complaints."After saying the last sentence, Richie opened the door and walked inside. Sharlynn blinked twice. Then she followed Richie's whereabouts as he dragged a not-so-large suitcase inside.Once inside, Sharlynn looked confused. The apartment Richie had had only had one room with one bedroom. Even the closet in the room is just one. As she walked to the front of the room, she saw Richie standing with his back to her, taking off his suit and shirt.Sharlynn looked uncomfortable as she saw for the second time that his back was covered in tattoos. Biceps and triceps were visible on both arms, sticking out. She just stood at the front of the room with her eyes fixed on her husband's sexy body.When Richie accidentally turned around, he saw Sharlynn standing in front of his room,
"I can't cry too much! That's what Mommy always says if I want to be strong!" Sharlynn roughly wiped away her tears. She got up from the sofa and began to rifle through the contents of her suitcase, which contained little luggage, including her few clothes. Her footsteps then approached the bathroom and she changed.Thirty minutes later, a sleeveless t-shirt and black leather pants clad Sharlynn's slender body. She then began to open her jewelry box and selected five pieces of jewelry, which she then placed in a drawstring bag. Then she put the jewelry box back in the suitcase."I think it's safe here. Richie is a good man. He would never dare touch my things.After putting on her boots, she grabbed the coat she had laid out on the back of the sofa. She rushed out and when she got to the door, she was confused because she didn't have a key. After calling Richie, she casually walked out of the apartment. She took the bus to Galeria Kaufhof at Alexanderplatz.A few minutes later. Sharly
