The people in the room who saw Steven and me were all excited. The men here all have one or two women by their side. This scene disgusted me. I want to run out of this room filled with lust.
"Steven, is this the woman you told us about?" The voice of a man sitting in the corner of the room startled me. As it turned out, they all knew I was the one Steven bought to serve his sexual needs."Right. Today I bring it here for you to admire. How? Is that OK?" Steven said in a haughty voice; then he pushed me to stand in the middle of the room in front of many people. Although I was terrified of what he would do next, I still tried my best to hide my trembling body."Steven…she looks a lot like….""Santos, shut up! Don't talk too much." Steven gritted his teeth and threw a steely look at Santos.The man named Santos looked at me, smirking slyly. "OK. I will keep quiet."I vaguely guessed that they didn't want to tell me about something related to me. However, I am not in the mood to pay much attention.Suddenly, a girl entered the room, causing the whole room to scream; the shouting and clapping grew louder. She is gorgeous and charming with short silver hair, like an angel. She was startled when she saw me, her face clearly showing discomfort. Afterward, she walked over to Steven and stuck to him like a snake. The two of them gave each other a passionate kiss in front of many people here and me.I knew this was going to happen, so it was no surprise. I calm down and continue to watch the hot performance of Steven and the other girl. I can feel many eyes watching me; it seems like they are waiting for a jealous attack from me. But I know I am nothing to Steven, so I have no right to interfere in their relationship. I won't let the people here get what they want.When the girl left Steven's lips, she looked at me with provocative eyes; her face held high as if she had just won. As for Steven, he looked at me with a mocking smile."I kept thinking, what would the doll you buy be like? She is nothing interesting either. Look at her standing like a log." That girl spoke up as if to annoy me. "Is it the same in her bed?"Then came laughter again. I hope Steven doesn't make fun of this. I looked straight at him as if giving a sign. However, he ignored my response and curtly replied, "Um."I shivered with anger when he turned me into a cheap toy for him to play with, mocking my innocence at the response from his friends who were around to witness this scene. This is exactly what he wanted. It makes me feel the most pain. I patiently uttered every word: "If Sir Jane had such a beautiful woman by her side, I should have gone out. I wish you a pleasant evening."Steven didn't react to my suggestion, so I quickly left this stuffy room. However, Steven's bodyguard stopped me as soon as I stepped out the door."You must not leave this place without your boss's permission."Maybe Steven was afraid that I would run away, so he had someone to supervise me at all times. "In that case, I will sit outside. When your boss is over, let me know."I step out onto the balcony, face up, find the cold to clear my mind. I'm not too fond of places like this. My university is the place I want to go to the most right now. Only there can I be me, even though I don't have a close friend."Are you OK?"I was startled and hastily wiped away my tears when I heard a man's voice behind me. I smiled reluctantly, turned around, and replied, "Yes, I'm fine."I was surprised to see him because he was also Steven's friend and was in the room just now."I'm Eric, Steven's friend; nice to meet you." He approached me and introduced himself politely, waiting for my handshake."I'm Diana."I politely replied and timidly shook Eric's hand. Suddenly, he took my hand and placed a gentle kiss on my hand; his gaze fixed on me made me really uncomfortable. Immediately after that, I quickly withdrew my hand, keeping my distance from this man."Are you at Steven's house right now?" Eric took the initiative to talk to me.I don't mean to hide it either because they probably already know. In fact, he only asked so that this chance meeting would happen naturally. Maybe he's not the nice guy either."Yes." I said bluntly, "I guess Steven told me all about me to both you and them. So don't act like you don't know anything about me."Eric laughed and glared at me, then he changed his attitude, no longer as polite as at first, but suddenly squeezed my ass and pulled me into his lap."You bastard, get out!"I shouted angrily, not forgetting to slap him on his smug face. This action of mine made him angry. He pressed himself against me, holding me so tight that I couldn't move. His hips twisted in a sudden and violent movement. I tried to pull away as he let out hoarse sounds from his throat, a worldly smile formed on his lips that showed me that trying to get rid of him was impossible and would only make the situation worse."I will give you anything you want. So have fun with me tonight. Steven will soon tire of you and will dispose of you as a cheap commodity."" You're a such a jerk! you make me feel disgusted. Even if he dumps me, it won't be your turn. Or do you have a preference for eating your friend's food?" I grabbed his hair and pulled him back, the words hissing through my teeth."It turned out that you were seducing my friend. Diana." Steven's ice-cold voice echoed in the night, making me shiver. His pale blue eyes were as cold as if they wanted to engulf Eric and me.Eric, when he saw Steven, immediately let go of me. There was a flash of fear in his eyes. He glanced at me, gave me a mischievous smile, and said, "I didn't expect your doll to be so easy. But she really knows how to fascinate others! Typically me.”"Bastard." I hastily explained to Steven because I was afraid he would believe Eric's words, "He's lying. I didn't do such a disgraceful thing."Eric seems to see Steven's anger; he quickly runs away. Now only the two of us are left. The space is tense now, and I feel a bit flustered as Steven comes closer to me, staring at me. His face now looks like someone who just came from hell."Do you think I will believe what you say? Seeing the two people cuddling was already obvious. Yet she still denied it. If I weren't here, you would have deceived Eric with an innocent face with a broken heart, right?"I realized that no matter how much I explained, it wouldn't solve anything. It even made Steven think I was trying to justify my actions. I do
I ran unconsciously among the crowded streets of New York. The dress on my body was not intact, so it attracted a lot of people's eyes. At this point, I was really panicking, and my breathing was fast when the image of Steven kept appearing in my head.After running a long distance, I began to feel pain in my feet from the high heels, and my body shivered from the cold. Because, on my body, only a thin shawl, not enough to keep warm. I left my uncomfortable red shoes on the side of the road and continued walking towards the station. Although many taxis passed by to offer me, I refused because I did not have a coin on me. Tonight, I'm really pathetic.Suddenly, a large, strong hand covered my mouth and pulled me into a deserted alley. My heart felt like it was going to explode in my chest because I was so scared. I tried to struggle, removing his hand from my body to ask for help from passersby. But he was so strong; his hand didn't move.After he brought me to the end of the alley, em
When I opened my eyes again, I found myself lying in a large room. I was surrounded by hospital equipment, and the smell of disinfectant hit my nose. I looked down at my body; the wound was bandaged. I moved my body slightly to sit up, but I couldn't; it was still very painful.I was struggling to find a way to sit up when the door suddenly opened. A group of doctors and nurses entered the ward. I glanced outside and saw a lot of bodyguards standing at the door, presumably following Steven's orders, watching so I couldn't escape. However, I did not see the appearance of Steven."How do you feel inside?" The female doctor asked me in a friendly manner. I looked over and saw that she seemed to be the oldest person in the group of doctors, possibly the team leader."I still feel a lot of pain in my body, but it is much better now. Thank you, doctor." I answer honestly.The female doctor smiled, and she said: "Of course. But don't worry, you'll recover quickly. Fortunately, your left rib
Paul looked at me angrily as if I were the one to blame. He has always been arrogant in school; today, being insulted by others in front of the crowd, he will undoubtedly be very dissatisfied and embarrassed. However, Paul is stubborn; he still stubbornly opposes Steven."Don't make things more troublesome!" I begged Steven. Because I know Steven did this really not for me. Maybe he did it to get the attention of any pretty girl in the school.Steven flashed an arrogant smile, "Why? If you just ignore this, he will continue to cause you trouble. Do you want him to harass you constantly? Or do you like that?"My left ribcage was uncomfortable, aching when Steven could calmly say this. I used all my arm strength and shoved Steven's arm off my body; I growled: "If you don't know anything about me, don't judge. If that's what you were thinking in the first place, why interfere in this?"Steven sneered; he calmly said, full of meaning: "Because I don't want a beautiful person like you to b
I panicked and was embarrassed when Steven caught me peeping while he was sleeping. Will Steven ever think I'm groping him? I take a deep breath, about to get up and run out of bed, but Steven's strong arms catch me, and in a moment, he's on top of me, which looks shady. I screamed because I was a little scared, but Steven thought he was hurting me, so he quickly moved his body a little. However, his legs still grip me tightly, not letting me escape."I didn't mean to hurt you."Steven said instead of apologizing. I knew he was an arrogant man; there was no way he would say that to me."Let me out. I want to sit up."I struggled, looking at Steven with worried eyes. I am utterly helpless in front of this man. Steven's eyes on me weren't serious; he smirked, slyly smiling as if teasing me."Are you afraid of what I will do to you?" He said, then reached down to rub the side of my left rib and said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to someone who's in bad health.""Seems like Steven st
I returned to my room with mixed thoughts. I thought our relationship had improved, but it got worse. I feel Steven and I can't get along when we talk. When the story begins, he is always the one who ignites the war. However, Steven always said things like I was the one to blame. His words and actions hurt me a lot.It wasn't until morning that I could sleep for a while. But I was awakened by Ellen's call. "Diana, wake up. Are you still in the mood to sleep now?"Ellen is the only maid in this mansion who doesn't hate and shun me. She helps and guides me in everything. Because of this, the other maids hate her too. When I returned from the hospital to the mansion, Elen took care of me. She is like a sister to me. I am very grateful to her for treating me so well. Although she and I have only known each other for a few months, she and I consider each other like family. Rely on each other to live.I walked out with a tired, listless face, still sleepy voice: "What's wrong, Ellen?"Ellen
Walking out of Steven's room, my heart was still pounding hard. I seem to be moved by his gentleness. I went back to my room to calm my mind. The awkward atmosphere at that time made me forget the conversation. The only thing still on my mind right now is that Steven will personally take me to school. His words gave me a sense of anticipation. It was like an invitation, a date for the two of us. I shudder when I think of this. The love between Steven and me? This is not possible because there is a distance between him and me.In the afternoon, when Ellen and I and some other people took care of the flower garden, a very luxurious car, I don't know what kind of car it was, but it seemed very expensive, entered the mansion. Matt quickly walked to the car and opened the door, politely bowing to the occupant.When I was still wondering who the person in the car was, Ellen leaned close to my ear and whispered, "It's Sharmaine. Maybe Matt told her Sir Jane was sick, and she came here quickl
I sensed the seriousness and sincerity of Steven's words. I shyly turned away, avoiding his gaze. At this point, my mind is blank; how will I have to explain to Steven my angry words? I didn't want to tell him because I didn't like Sharmaine, or rather because I envied her. I stammered, forever unable to speak. In the end, it was Steven who took the initiative to speak up, breaking the silence between the two of us."You still don't believe it? Do you need to come to my room to confirm?"I shook my head and said softly, "I'm sorry I couldn't control my words. I… misunderstood you."Suddenly, Steven lifted my chin, we were facing each other, and he said softly, "Okay. Now everything is clear. In the future, if Sharmaine causes you trouble, tell me."I smiled and nodded. After that, Steven didn't go back to his room but went to my room to rest, which confused me. Steven did it because he didn't like the smell of Sharmaine's perfume; it was too strong to make him uncomfortable. Since I w
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…." Zelda said as she sobbed loudly, her trembling hand gripping min
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
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. Their primary purpose for coming he
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
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. A quick look at the d
