Anna put the check in her bag, picked up the teacup in front of her, and took a slow sip.

She could guess what was on Alex’s mind. He was worried she would make a fuss and destroy his relationship with Vivian. However, Alex did not know her well and underestimated her too much.

“You don’t have to be so nervous, Mr. Ortega.” Anna smiled. “I accept your money as compensation for my mental damages, but not under your conditions. I’m not an object. I’m not something you can measure and calculate with money.”

Alex’s eyes flashed with a dark light as he gazed at Anna’s palm-sized face.

“No matter what you think, since you’ve accepted this check, you have to keep your promise. Don’t let a third person find out about what happened between us. Understand?”

Anna curled her lips. Sure enough, this man was too selfish. He did not care one bit about what she said. All he cared about was the relationship between him and his fiancee.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Ortega. I won’t say anything, but please sh

    Anna suddenly realized that they were too close and how inappropriate it was. She hurriedly pushed Alex’s shoulder and deliberately created a distance between them.It was only after pushing him away did she realize that his arm was bleeding. It looked quite serious. “Hey, you’re injured. Let’s go to the hospital to deal with the wound.”Alex looked sideways at the wound on his arm. It was only when sharp pain came in bursts he realized he was indeed hurt quite badly. He gave the car keys to Anna and said in a low voice, “You drive. Take me to the hospital.”Anna took the keys and hurriedly headed over to Alex’s car. She unlocked the door to sit in the driver’s seat, set the navigation on her phone to the nearest hospital, and drove to her destination.Along the way, she noticed how badly injured Alex was. It was hard for him to even lift his arm.When they arrived at the hospital, Anna helped Alex to the orthopedic department. After some tests, it was finally confirmed that he ha

    Anna aimlessly wandered the streets of a foreign land and was suddenly unable to find her way. She looked at the people coming and going but could not remember where the hotel was. She took her phone out and prepared to call Mona to ask, However, before she could, someone patted her shoulder. When she looked back, Mona was standing behind her with a gentle smile on her face.Anna looked at Mona’s face. For some reason, she felt her eyes water up. She turned around and hugged Mona tightly.At this moment, the person who could take on all her vulnerability and loneliness was like her lifeline, pulling her out of the swampy black hole of emotions.Mona did not know what happened, but since it was related to Alex, it was definitely not something happy.She hugged Anna and gently patted her back, comforting her softly, “Let’s go back to the hotel first so you have a place to cry properly.”Anna suddenly did not feel bad anymore. She snickered, feeling like laughing instead.“What make

    It was night before Mona knew it. She received a video call from Bobby and Millie and she answered it right away. “Mommy, what are you doing?” Her two precious babies moved closer to the camera on the phone and leaned their heads against each other. Their eyes glistened as they stared at the screen. Their adorableness melted Mona’s heart. “Mommy is reading my script.” Mona lifted the script in front of the camera to show her kids. “Spot check! Show us your room!” Millie suddenly requested a spot check, which surprised Mona. It did not feel like something a girl her age would say. Mona switched to the rear camera and showed the kids the living room. “Here, can you see it?” “Where’s the bedroom?” Millie requested. Mona went to the bedroom and showed the girl. Millie checked every corner that appeared on her screen. She nodded as if she had gotten some confirmation before she turned around and ran away. Even though Millie was out of the frame, Mona could hear her che

    Mona and Anna spent a week in the hotel together. The crew also arrived at New Astrid City and were getting prepared for the upcoming shoot. Sophie checked into the suit next to Mona’s with two large pieces of luggage. All the other crew members checked into the same floor, and things got lively. The suite across from Mona's was chosen for Stella. She was a quirky person and had special requirements for her living and eating habits. Furthermore, she was also extremely picky about the surroundings of her room; she was a difficult customer indeed. “I heard she’s good at writing horror fiction novels. She’s so good that her readers said they feel like they were in the novel just by reading it. It gave them chills. What kind of experience does she have to be able to write something that horrifying? Is it some kind of traumatic experience?” Anna was a psychologist, so her professional habit drove her to always ask about mental issues. Mona remembered hearing about Stella’s past fr

    With that, Mona felt mentally exhausted. “Thank you for telling me, Sophie. Then, can you deliver a message to him for me? I hope he can take care of himself, and the seniors and kids at home. I’m doing fine.” Sophie found Mona’s request amusing. “You two are really interesting. Shouldn’t you two talk to each other rather than ask a middleman like me to deliver a message to one another? Did something happen between you two?” Mona pursed her lips in silence and went inside. Sophie realized she had crossed a boundary. Not all things must be made verbal. She had gotten ahead of herself. "Are you Mona's agent?" Anna asked as she rushed outside after receiving a phone call. She appeared to be in a hurry. Sophie turned around to Anna. “Yeah, just call me Sophie.” “You are taking Mona out shopping later, aren’t you? I have an emergency that needs me to go out for a while.” Anna then grabbed her jacket from the closet and strode out of the door. Mona did not even get the chan

    Anna turned around and wanted to go back upstairs. She would rather starve to death than speak another word to the man. Thinking of his disdainful gaze and evasive attitude, Anna felt that every action and word from him screamed resistance toward her. It felt terrible as if she was a piece of useless garbage. Anna recalled that in the past eight years, Alex treated her the same way multiple times, but she was so infatuated with him that she decided to lower herself and trample her own dignity. Now that she had fully awakened from the infatuation, she regained her sanity. Looking back at her own attitude, she felt that she had been useless for the past eight years. She couldn't blame anyone but herself. Alex had done nothing wrong; he was loyal to Vivian and treated other women coldly. Being a loyal man was not wrong. She just couldn't face her past self who had lowered herself so much for him. While Anna’s thoughts were drifting away, the elevator door opened. She went in

    “By plane.” Vivian pouted. She lifted one leg onto Alex and swung her heel with her toe. “My feet are sore from all the walking. I can’t even walk properly.” Alex took Vivian’s heel off with one hand and held her ankle. He massaged it with moderate strength. Vivian enjoyed the massage with narrowed eyes. “Not bad. You know how to massage? What is your number? I’ll call you for a private massage session next time.” Alex scoffed. “You came to get your little massage, and now you are showing off? Remember to tell me the next time you come.” Vivian rubbed her nose, looking aggrieved. “If I tell you beforehand, you wouldn’t have let me come.” “You just came back a while ago and are still adapting to life here. You are totally unfamiliar with this city. What if someone abducts you?” “I’m not scared.” Vivian looked like a proud little girl. She clung onto Alex’s neck like a teddy bear and leaned on his shoulder. “With you around, I am not afraid of anything. Alex, I know you will

    “Does she know about you being hospitalized because of a car accident?” Vivian turned around and looked at Alex. The relaxed smile on her face was replaced by a severe and cool expression. Alex looked into Vivian’s eyes. His charming Adam’s apple bobbed as he arranged the words for the appropriate sentence. He knew Vivian well. She was someone who had a clear-cut view of love and hate. She could not stand a speck of dust that crossed the line, and once the line was crossed, their relationship would break and shatter beyond repair. “Alex, don’t lie to me. I need to hear your explanation on this,” Vivian asked again in a colder tone. “Vivian, calm down.” He reached out to her, trying to hold her hand, but when he touched her fingers, she quickly pulled her hand away. “Alex, is there anything else about Anna that you are hiding from me?” “It’s just a coincidence. We bumped into each other here, had lunch, and got into a car accident outside the restaurant. I was hurt because

    The couple was tired after a time of bonding, and they lay on the wicker chair, closing their eyes before slipping into dreamland. Sometime later, Thaddeus felt a chill and opened his eyes. His T-shirt was wet, and Bobby and Millie were spraying water at him with water guns. The youngest child was nearby too in her stroller. She suckled on a pacifier and watched the bustle. “Where’s your mommy?” Thaddeus shuffled his hair and looked around, searching for Mona. “Freeze, Daddy. We have held Mommy captive. Surrender yourself to us.” Acting like the boss, Millie pointed her massive water gun at her daddy. Thaddeus had indulged his eldest daughter so much that the girl would only have things her way. Nevertheless, Thaddeus played along since it was only a game. He knew his children well. Millie took after Mona and was shrewd. Still, Millie would be on her best behavior when in public. “Hurry up and surrender, Daddy. Put your hands up, and we will release Mommy.” Millie poked

    It was a cooling breeze for the Summer as flowers bloomed in the garden of Fontaine Residence. Mona rested on a wicker chair under the wine arbor, holding in hand the latest issue of the weekly design magazine, with her face on the cover. In the photo, she held a trophy up on the stage of a design competition, standing out amidst the radiant background. Since the birth of her youngest, Mona took a month off for rest before picking up her passion again and returning to the world of design. Recently, she won first place in an international design competition and found fame. Mona was happy with her life and enjoyed the rich and peaceful state of things. She had time to herself for once during the weekend, so she found a quiet spot to enjoy time alone while the kids had a nap. The sunlight shone over Mona through the leaves, basking her in warmth. She let out a yawn and closed her eyes for a nap. Thaddeus walked out of the house and saw the woman enjoying the moment of bliss. The t

    “Mommy, did the baby kick you today?” Millie wobbled her way over and placed her hand on Mona’s belly. She could feel the baby stirring inside her mommy’s stomach. Millie was pleasantly surprised. “The baby kicked me! Mommy, is the baby swimming inside your belly?” “Yeah. The baby is kicking.” Mona affectionately caressed her belly. The fetus had been kicking and rolling a lot more lately, so she could not get much sleep. The tall and strong man drew near and looked tenderly at Mona. His husky voice lingered in Mona’s ear. “Weren’t you craving strawberries? I placed an order, and the fruit is being airlifted here as we speak. It’ll arrive tonight.” “Yay.” Mona was gleeful. Since the beginning of her pregnancy, she had become quite fussy and craved the strangest food. She wanted caviar from Japan, cookies from France, and strawberries from the highlands. Anything she asked for would be transported fresh to the house the next day.The man had taken good care of her during her en

    “No. I won’t let myself go.” The man huffed heavily after finishing his sit-ups. Then, he rolled out of bed and got changed in the walk-in closet. Mona stared at the man’s well-toned back, gasping at his body upkeep. People would probably have a hard time believing he was a father of three. With that in mind, Mona became aware of a potential threat. She got up and drew close to the man. “You’re responsible for taking care of the baby once the child is born.” Thaddeus straightened his tie. “Alright. I can do that. I want to be present in the baby’s life and your pregnancy. You should rest at home once your belly gets bigger. I’ll handle Bobby and Millie’s school run, okay?” The man pinched Mona’s face dotingly. “Now you’re talking. Are you heading out?” Mona got up on her tiptoes to brush off the dust from his shoulders. “Yeah. I need to sort out a lot of paperwork.” “I wrote down notes of the meeting I attended on your behalf a few days ago.” Mona walked out to retrieve a

    Thaddeus was in the hospital for a week before he was discharged. The election day for the successor of the Fontaine Group was two weeks later, but Thaddeus had not made a full recovery in his legs. He remained in a wheelchair and persisted in his daily physiotherapy. Mona had a room freed up in Fontaine Residence for Thaddeus’ rehabilitation. A specialized doctor would come around the house every day to help Thaddeus with his recovery. Thaddeus was a strong man to fight through the pain in his physiotherapy sessions. That day, Mona watched as the workers hung a decorative painting on the wall in the hallway. She ordered paintings of her preference and had them shipped from abroad. Mona instructed the workers to put it up, not paying attention to the wobbly painting that had been hung behind her. The painting was about to hit her from the back. Thaddeus was exiting the rehabilitation room when he caught sight of the danger. Getting up from his wheelchair, Thaddeus took large stri

    The few pictures of Mona and Victor at the height of a tussle gave the impression that they were having an intimate moment. Thaddeus went through the photos with a look of disdain. “So you stood there and pretended to take pictures of me to show me these? You set my wife up with another man to tell me she was cheating on me?” It was not hard to guess the game the paparazzi were playing, but who was he trying to fool? The man was dumbstruck, as it never occurred to him that Thaddeus could see through him. It had taken the three of them to come up with the idea. However, it had not taken much for Thaddeus to foil their plan. Mona let out a relieved smile. She thought that Thaddeus would be furious at the look of the pictures and had prepared herself to give a long explanation. She was surprised that Thaddeus quickly saw through the attempt to drive them apart. Their relationship was solid, and no one could come between them. Mona thought to herself with glee when she took

    Mona stood in front of Thaddeus, blocking his face as she confronted the paparazzi who took their picture. “Hand over the camera!” “There’s nothing in the camera. Besides, it’s my personal property. Why should I give it to you?” “You clearly took a picture of my husband. You have some nerve to say there’s nothing.” Mona grabbed the man by the wrist and lifted her foot to kick. Thaddeus grabbed her wrist to stop her. “You’re pregnant. Think about the child.” Thaddeus pulled Mona back, leaving himself exposed to the paparazzi. “Why do you want to photograph me? Do you want to see me in a wheelchair? Take a picture then.” Thaddeus pulled a straight face. His nonchalant gaze spoke of intimidation. Dumbstruck, the paparazzi looked at Thaddeus’ legs and smiled dryly. “What happened to your legs, Mr. Fontaine?” Thaddeus did not answer. However, his dark eyes flicked chillingly as he looked murderously at the paparazzi. Even in a wheelchair, Thaddeus did not have to say anythi

    With the help of the two caretakers, Thaddeus sat in the wheelchair. He had overcome his emotions and pulled himself together. His mind was clear as he sorted out what he should do next. Thaddeus called the assistant into the room and laid out the following plan. “I won’t attend any media interviews before the election, but I won’t disappear from the public eye either. I don’t want to give the press something to talk about. My wife will represent me. Going forward, whatever she says or does will be considered my own. She has the authority to attend all corporate conferences, big or small.” Mona dropped her jaw in shock. She was to attend company meetings and speak on his behalf. It was trying to make the impossible happen. On second thought, Thaddeus must have his reasons to do so. She had the confidence to do a good job anyway. The assistant took note of everything Thaddeus said. The Fontaine Group was about to choose its next leader, and with Thaddeus still in recovery, the

    “It’s okay. That’s normal after surgery. The doctor gave me a heads-up. Since it’s a brain operation, you might have damage to the motor nerve. With the help of physiotherapy, you’ll be back to running in no time.” Mona consoled Thaddeus. Thaddeus lifted his hands and gave Mona a gentle push. “Leave.” Mona froze. She looked at the man who was fine a second ago, not knowing what to do. “Can you leave? I need some time alone,” Fixing his gaze on Mona, Thaddeus spoke callously. “Okay. I’ll be right outside if you need me.” It dawned on Mona why the man was persistent in driving her away. He did not want her to see him at his worst. In a way, he was trying to protect his pride and dignity as a man. However, they were a married couple. Mona would never turn her back on him. Mona could understand the man’s vulnerability and his feelings at the moment. Hence, she said nothing and quietly left the ward to give Thaddeus the time and space to sort his emotions.
