I struggled in despair, like a fish out of water. I don't know what I did wrong to have to put up with all this.

"Ah…ah…ah! Stop it! Please!"

I cried out in pain as Enoch poured a cup of hot water into my hand. The skin on my hands started to turn red and painful. Even though it was winter, my forehead was drenched with sweat. I panicked when I saw Enoch continue to carry hot cups of water toward me; I shouted: "Darius, I did nothing wrong; why are you doing this to me?"

Darius' face remained as cold as ice; he ignored my words. I know Darius wants to destroy my face because he wants me not to dare to meet Steven and automatically leave him; he wants me to disappear forever from Steven's life.

While I was hopeless, the door suddenly opened. Right now, I feel like I'm holding onto a buoy when I'm about to drown in the ocean. I couldn't see the faces of the two people who had just entered because they were standing against the light. Suddenly, I heard Zelda's voice say:

    I walked up to Steven and hugged him tightly. I could hear his heart pounding loudly in my chest. I could feel his body tensing as if trying to suppress his burning rage. What I didn't expect the most was that Steven had installed the camera without my knowledge, which was beyond my expectations."Steven, you are my world, the most important person to me," I whispered. "I'm sorry; I shouldn't have lied to you."Steven remains silent; it seems that he is very angry with me. I looked up at him and was startled when his tears fell down my face. I whispered his name in confusion: "Steven, I… I didn't mean to lie to you. Actually, I…Suddenly, Steven took me in his arms; he carefully took my hand and said as if he was reproaching me: "You know, you do this to make me feel like a useless person. I was so useless that even my woman could not protect me. You make all my promises a cliché. I told you something, do you remember? As much as this world hurts you, I will love you twice as much. I

    Steven and I leave Darius' mansion. He drove in silence and held my hand tightly. His face showed anger. I don't know what to say to him now. The atmosphere around us became oppressive and tense. I suddenly thought, would everything be different if I didn't hide this from him but calmly said it?I suppressed a sigh and turned to look outside in a chaotic mood. Suddenly Steven stopped the car on the side of the road and took the initiative to speak first with a tired voice: "Why did you go there?"I turned to Steven and met his sad eyes. Perhaps when he made this choice, it also meant that he was cornered. Sunwell is his heart; if he says he doesn't need to, it's a lie. I feel incredibly guilty. Steven had to give up his everything to keep his promise to protect me and stay by my side for the rest of his life. Am I a person who is both selfish and greedy?I didn't answer Steven's question but asked him back. "Do you regret deciding to give up everything?"Without thinking, Steven answe

    Steven took my hand and led me to a house with a large garden not far from the valley of tulips. Even though it's not the season for flowers to bloom, I can still smell the faint sweet fragrance that dissolves in the cold winter weather. It makes me feel more relaxed and at ease."Aunt Jack!" Steven called out loudly, causing the two people who were working hard to do something to look up. Seeing Steven, they couldn't hide their surprise. A full-figured woman hurried towards us and was followed by the tall man. He seemed calmer, but his face was also filled with joy. As she approached, I noticed that her and Steven's eye colors were very similar. Steven's eye color seems inherited from his mother's family line.Steven's aunt was emotional, her eyes red as if she was about to cry. She stroked Steven's face and said, "It's been a long since I've seen you. Since the day Evelyn died, you have not returned to this place. I'm sorry, I can't come to New York to visit you either because I did

    Darius is looking for us. No. More precisely, he's looking for Steven. I realized that Darius still didn't let us go. If one day Darius finds us, what will he do? I am scared and feel insecure thinking about this. Perhaps Darius was subjective that Steven would leave me when he confiscated everything Steven had, but that was a wrong move on his part.Darius said something to Esperanza, and she laughed in a disdainful tone. She said in a disgruntled voice: "I don't know what happened between you two, but I have some advice for you. You should look at yourself and ask yourself why Steven made that decision."As soon as he finished speaking, Esperanza hung up the phone angrily. She mumbled, "Darius is a madman. Forcing Steven into a dead end, now feel regret and want to find him back?"I intended to return to my room quietly so Esperanza wouldn't discover that I overheard her and Darius' conversation. But I was caught by her. Surprised, Esperanza said:"Diana, when did you and Muriel com

    When I woke up, it was past 9 am. Steven was no longer with me. I looked down at my body and had to say, "God, what did Steven do?"My body was full of the kiss marks he left from yesterday's hot lovemaking, so I had to wear a turtleneck sweater to hide them. I stood in front of the mirror, felt fine, and walked out of my room."Diana, are you awake? Sit down and have breakfast. Maybe you had to clean up yesterday, so you were very tired, right?" Esperanza said as soon as he saw me.Honestly, I'm not tired of helping Esperanza clean because I'm so used to such tasks. The thing that makes me tired and wakes up late is because of last night. The aroma of the food made my stomach rumble. I took the plate of food Esperanza prepared for me and said:"Thank you! Look how delicious it is! But where has everyone gone?"Esperanza said while washing the dishes: "Muriel went to school early. And Daniel and Steven are out in the Tulip Valley. Did you sleep well last night? I kept worrying that yo

    I couldn't sleep all night. I kept tossing and turning all night after talking to Zelda. I don't know how to tell Steven. Steven was a little startled when he saw my listless and tired face. He sat down next to me and checked if I had a cold."Diana, what are you doing?"I shook my head and rubbed my temples with my hands to find some sanity. After a night of thinking, I decided to be frank and discuss this matter with Steven. Because right now, Sunwell Corporation desperately needs him. I looked around and saw no one but Steven and me, making us more comfortable and able to talk to each other more honestly."Steven, Zelda called me yesterday and she told me everything about Sunwell's current situation."Steven's expression changed as soon as I mentioned Sunwell. He's still trying to prove that he doesn't care about it. He said nonchalantly: "I am no longer the CEO of Sunwell. Now Sunwell and I were no longer related. So you don't mention it anymore."Steven stood up to avoid me, but

    I woke up after a night of waiting for a reply from Steven. I still held the phone tightly in my hand and didn't let go. I check my phone but still no call from him, a feeling of loss in my heart. Did something happen to Steven? I felt like I couldn't keep speculating any longer; I needed to return to New York. It was the only way I could meet Steven.I quickly got out of bed and folded a few clothes into my backpack and ID so I could catch the train in time. Esperanza saw me carrying a bag; she was pretty surprised and hurriedly asked me: "Diana, where are you going?"I put my boots on and replied, "I'll be back in New York in a few days. After meeting Steven, I will come back here.""Diana, tell us the truth. Has it been for almost a month that Steven has not contacted you. Right?" Esperanza asked skeptically.Perhaps she has noticed my unusual expressions in the past. Occasionally Esperanza or Muriel would ask me about Steven. I lied to them that he and I were still in regular cont

    Three months have passed since I left Modesto. The first day of the new year was a bad day for me. Although Muriel and her family prevented me from leaving, I have no right to stay here since Steven suggested so.I went to Oregon because Muriel once told me that there are many fields of tulips here. And I ended up stopping in Hillsboro and working on a tulip farm. Thanks to this job, I have eased the pain in my heart. Of course, it will never go away, but at least when it comes to it, the feeling of pain in the heart will no longer be.I look at the brilliant beauty of the tulip farm and smile; now, I am satisfied with my life. One thing that I did not expect is that God has given me a very precious gift. And that is my lifeline. The past three months have been challenging; I felt like I had collapsed when I had to endure bad things, and the only happiness in life was also lost. But life was growing inside of me, and I didn't allow myself to be weak. I will do everything to be able to

    I thought our life was peaceful, but no, something terrible happened. Steven and I got a phone call saying that Odelia got lost while playing in the amusement park and still had yet to find her. We went there immediately. Steven mobilized many people to find her in the park, but Odelia was nowhere to be found.I was so scared, and I cried and called out my daughter's name in vain. Odelia is our treasure, and nothing can happen to her. Three hours have passed, but all the police stations in the city have not received a call about a lost child. At this point, I'm sure someone kidnapped Odelia for ransom.I've been through a lot of fear in my life, but I've never been this scared. It's slowly killing me since I can't find Odelia. If something happened to her, I would never forgive myself. I have never felt so hopeless as I do now. Now, we have to wait for the phone of the person who kidnapped Odelia."Diana, I'm sorry. I…."

    We woke up the following day, arms and legs still entwined as the sun shone through the thin curtains. Steven was so energetic last night, bringing me into a world filled with lust. If I hadn't fallen asleep because I was so tired, maybe Steven wouldn't have had any intention of stopping.Steven kisses my forehead; he leans on his elbows and looks at me lovingly and possessively, making me a little embarrassed. I stroked his silky hair and said, "Good morning, my love!""Good morning sweetheart!" He kissed my white neck; his warm, melodious voice whispered in my ears as if seducing me.I stretched and moaned softly as my whole body was the red kiss marks left by Steven and my entire body ached from last night's lovemaking. I whispered, "I don't know if I have the strength to get up after last night."Steven leaned on the top of me and said in a loving voice, "If you can't walk, I'll carry you."I giggled, wrapped my arms around Steven's neck, and actively kissed his lips a deep kiss.

    "Sir, if you don't believe me I can testify for Steven and Diana. They truly love each other. Although I am not Steven's biological sister, we always consider each other a family. I have witnessed all of his emotions when he loves Diana, happy, sad, sad... All they have for each other is a sincere love. The words I say today are attested to by God."Zelda's voice surprised me quite a bit. Suddenly, a lot of people I used to know: Phelim, Muriel and her parents, Felix and Rowan, Karla and the colleagues who had worked with me at Skyline, now working as wedding caterers, stood up and said:"I can also testify to Steven and Diana's love."The person we didn't expect the most was the Mafia boss, Steven's cousin; he stood up and said in a serious voice: "Me too. I know a secret from Steven. He will never shed a tear in front of a girl he doesn't love."Theodore shrugged and said, "As you can see, Steven cried in front of Diana. This proves that he loves his bride very much.Their actions m

  • Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO   Chap 75: The truth is finally revealed.

    I could very clearly feel Steven's body shaking now. Maybe he was too surprised when I appeared in front of him. His eyes sparkled, looking at me with affection and tenderness. His tears fell because he was so happy that I had become his bride. I reach out and carefully wipe away the tears that roll down Steven's cheeks.After that, I glanced down at where Darius was sitting with Zelda's mother, his face full of anger, his bloodshot eyes staring at me. It was late, and there was nothing else he could do now that he had discovered that the bride today was not Zelda. Because if he stood up to prevent this wedding, it would mean that his everything would be exposed. Now he can only grit his teeth and accept it.Next, the priest's voice was heard to reduce the noise of the ceremony."Can we continue?"Steven was too emotional to speak, so I was forced to answer on his behalf. "Yes, Reverend. Please forgive us. Maybe he was just too emotional to be like that."The Pastor smiled and nodded

    Tomorrow is Steven's wedding day, and newspapers everywhere have reported on social networking sites. And, of course, there were articles congratulating Steven's happiness. Still, there were also many articles saying that this marriage was just a lie presented by the chairman of Sunwell Group, causing the Royal side to begin to suspect doubt. I know this because Steven called me yesterday and told me everything. Maybe those articles were created by Sunwell's competitors to discredit Steven and bring down Sunwell Corporation.I'm back in New York and ready for my plan. I definitely won't let them achieve that goal.7 am at Sunwell Group hotel.Steven's wedding was held at the biggest hotel in the city. Because the number of guests coming to the wedding ceremony is very large. Those are Sunwell's business partners, not only that but also the group's competitors, who took the opportunity of the wedding ceremony to add fuel to the fire to crush Sunwell.

    On the way to the hospital, I called Nick to ask about Alan's health. Nick said that Alan was not only severely injured physically but mentally as well. Before Nick took Alan to the hospital, I figured that too. How could a five-year-old child endure that? I went through the same thing as Alan, so I know very well how horrible that feeling can be. To this day, it still haunts me. This will probably be challenging for Alan, Clyde, and me.I raised my hand to rub my temples, my voice becoming heavy:"Nick, help me find the best psychiatrist here to treat Alan when he's released from the hospital."Nick quickly replied politely: "Yes ma'am."After that, I continued to call Steven, and in less than a minute, I heard his familiar, warm voice ringing in my ears."I was going to call you, too. Is Alan OK?""You have read the news already. Maybe Alan needs both physical and psychological treatment."There was a moment of silence between the two of us, and then Steven said apologetically, "Um.

    There was a commotion all around. All eyes were on us. They were curious, not knowing what the truth was. There were disdainful eyes, treating this as a pastime; they used it to bet, between Fiona and me, who would die. I nodded, motioning for my bodyguard to give the document to Theodore, but to my surprise, Fiona snatched it and tore it to pieces. Theodore's expression changed; he didn't seem to believe his eyes. Perhaps he also understood that this impulsive act of Fiona was proof that she did something shady behind his back. Fiona still didn't stop; she tried to tear the document to make it deformed. But she didn't know that it was just a trap that I had planned in advance to expose her true face. "Fiona, you really are stupid. The real proof is still here." I held it up high and shook the document in my hand. Fiona looked up at me with a look of indignation and panic. She quickly got up and rushed towards me to destroy the evidence, but my bodyguard was able to stop her in tim

    They disregarded my words and burst out laughing. A guy with a poked head, with a large centipede-shaped scar on his face approached me, glared at me and spoke in a threatening tone."Who do you think you are to say such things? If you don't want me to cut your tongue, get the hell out of here. This is not a place you can enter."As he said that, he pulled a dagger from his pocket and danced it in front of me to threaten. He thought this might terrify me, but he was wrong. Today, I must make Fiona kneel in front of Alan to ask for his forgiveness.I ignored them and directly entered the lavish mansion, making the man with the scar on his face angry at being looked down upon by a woman. He bellowed like a wild beast: "Stop whore!"He said and rushed towards me. Immediately, I pulled the gun from the side of a bodyguard walking beside me and without hesitation, I shot him straight in the thigh. The sound of gunfire made them all startle; it was like a signal to start an upcoming war.My

  • Falling Into The Love Trap Of The Cold CEO   Chap 70: Deal with the ignorant.

    Today is the next court date, and the court also ordered Alan to be present. Although I did not attend the trial, I discovered what was going on through Clyde's attorney. Listening to her narrate everything today made me extremely angry and frustrated. He seemed to want to let go of everything and accept his defeat. Clyde is thwarting her attorney's efforts, leaving her frustrated. And Alan kept crying and refusing to accept Fiona, but that didn't change anything. And from now on, the court also allows Fiona to see Alan regularly so that she can make up for Alan's feelings. Not only that, but I also received a message that I was not allowed to see Alan as I was not his biological mother. I'm sure Fiona made this. Somehow she managed to convince the judge to make such an absurd decision. I'm damned if I'm going to let her get away with that.Later, I asked some bodyguards to investigate this and learned that the judge was on pretty good terms with Fiona's husband.
