CHAPTER 75

"Let’s talk.”

She nearly raised an eyebrow at his tone and glanced at her watch.

“I have a meeting, Engineer. If you need to discuss the project, ask my secretary to schedule you an appointment.”

She wasn’t naive; she could see what Emil was hoping for, watching expectantly as if waiting for something to happen between her and Anderson.

Right, she remembered. Anderson had spread rumors that they’d broken up because she needed to “save” Arthur. Funny how he’d conveniently left out the part where he’d moved on with Catherine—the same Catherine who had caused chaos at her wedding.

That woman had the nerve to slap her father! She’d dragged Catherine out of the church herself, ensuring she couldn’t come near any of them. She’d also stripped Catherine and her mother of any claim to the Bently wealth. After all, as Arthur’s only child, she had every right to make that call. They were the outsiders in the family, not her.

    CHAPTER 76She was certain it was Anderson’s father. He had never liked her, even when she and Anderson were together. Although he rarely spoke, he never missed a chance to subtly express his disapproval whenever he got the chance. He preferred Catherine, claiming she was the true Bentley by blood, unlike her.“I’ll talk to Anderson, Imelda. Can you stop making this worse?” he snapped.“You gave in to his whims! He didn’t even belong in that meeting, but you pushed him in. Now, Mrs. Channing wants us to terminate them,” she continued, clearly forgetting Elizabeth was still on the line.“Why should we bend to her wishes? We only have one project with her.”“Have you lost your mind? She’s a Channing, the wife of the CEO of the Channing Empire. Are you trying to ruin this firm? You’re willing to protect your son at the expense of my family’s company? I won’t allow it!” she shot back.Elizabeth calmly ended the call, hearing the couple’s argument escalating in the background.“From now o

    CHAPTER 77 (PART 1)Liz couldn’t sit still, and her eyes darting to her phone every few seconds.They were already at her father’s house, but Wulfric still hadn’t called. She knew she wouldn’t be able to sleep without apologizing to him.“Eli?”She turned to see Arthur peeking from the doorway to the lanai. She quickly approached him to assist him as he walked.“Why are you out here alone, Dad? Where’s Cecil?”“Don’t worry about me, dear. I’m still strong,” he assured her.Arthur had been undergoing continuous therapy over the past year, which helped him regain his strength. However, age had taken its toll; he now used a cane and often needed assistance walking.She sat beside him and affectionately leaned her head against his arm.“Why aren’t you asleep yet?”“I’m waiting for Wulf to call.”“Where is your husband? Still at the office?”She shook her head. He doubts Wulfric is at Channing Tower. “No, he’s with Rufus. He seems upset about something.”“Did you two have an argument? Don’

    CHAPTER 77 (PART 2)“Was it an arranged marriage? Didn’t you love each other?”“I truly loved Mathilda. But there were things we couldn’t agree on. My love for her faded, especially when Eleanor came into my life.”“You loved Mama?”“Of course. Why do you think you were born?”Elizabeth couldn’t respond. For all she knew, it could have just been a fleeting passion. She kept her thoughts to herself, not wanting to risk offending her father.“I loved your mother until her last breath.”“Do you have any pictures of her? I barely remember what she looked like.”“You were so young when she passed away,” Arthur said softly. “I still have her photos. I’ll give them to you.”She suddenly remembered the few belongings her mother had left behind that stored in her room for over a year.Oddly, she didn’t feel emotional hearing Arthur confirm that she was his daughter. The truth had already settled into her life. What once felt shocking now seemed almost ordinary. Perhaps it was because she had a

    CHAPTER 78Liz hurried down the stairs as soon as she heard Wulfric’s car pull up outside the mansion. Ignoring the cold that seeped through her silk robe, she rushed to greet her husband.She threw her arms around him and buried her face against his chest. The faint smell of menthol cigarettes and alcohol lingered on him.“You’re still awake,” Wulfric murmured.“I was waiting for you. Where have you been?”He wrapped his arms around her small waist, and she exhaled in relief. He’s not mad at me.“Did I worry you?” he asked softly.“Very much.”“I was out with Dox and Rufus.”“You were drinking? At a club?” A lump formed in her throat at the thought of him surrounded by women. Of course, they would notice her husband—he always attracted attention.“No. We were hunting someone’s head.”“Huh?” She tilted her head up to look at him, wondering if he was joking. The last time Wulfric said something like that, Eva had almost died.“W-Who?”“He doesn’t matter.”“You didn’t… kill him, did you

    CHAPTER 79The coat slipped to the floor as Wulfric carried her into the bedroom.Their breaths mingled, her arms wrapped tightly around his neck and her legs locked around his waist.“You missed me that much?” His deep voice sent shivers down her spine. She couldn’t help but smile against his lips with a flush creeping across her cheeks.“Why are you smiling, Kitten?” he asked, his tone teasing yet laced with heat. His large hand squeezed her firmly that trailed down to caress her exposed thighs.She relished the roughness of his touch, the way his calloused palms ignited a familiar fire within her. The thought of her thin nightdress beneath the silk robe only heightened her anticipation.Her husband had a habit of tearing her delicate clothes to shreds before devouring her completely—and she loved every second of it.“You’ve calmed down now,” she murmured, her fingers tracing the sharp angles of his jaw. She tilted her head boldly while meeting his fiery kiss with equal fervor.“I’m

    CHAPTER 80Elizabeth’s body still ached, a lingering reminder of Wulfric’s relentless passion from the night before. She winced slightly as she prepared for work, leaving her husband fast asleep in their bed, utterly exhausted after keeping her up until the early hours of the morning.The moment she entered the office, her secretary, Shanaya, greeted her with a warm smile and quickly rushed over to help with her things.“Good morning, Shanaya. Any progress on securing the endorser we need?”“None so far, Ma’am. The talent fees for celebrities these days are ridiculously high.”“Are they at least guaranteed to have a big following?”“Yes, Ma’am, but only three have responded to our audition emails. Unfortunately, Benzone’s been overshadowed by other telco companies for years, so we’re not exactly a priority for them.”“What?” Elizabeth sank into her chair.“We’ve been falling behind in the market, Ma’am.”“What’s the marketing team doing about this? They should be on top of the latest

Shanaya asked in awe while her gaze darting between her and the man in the studio room."I know him," she replied, pointing at the man she had met before at the island resort she visited with Wulfric.The last time she saw him was at the hospital, the same day she first saw Eva and Wulfric together."Wow! No wonder he was interested in becoming one of our endorsers.""He's a model?""Yes, Ma’am. A renowned supermodel. He’s the one everyone was fussing over in the lobby earlier."Many models and talents had auditioned for them, especially since her husband had tripled the talent fee offer."So far, the marketing team is leaning toward him to endorse our brand. His international fanbase will definitely draw attention to our product.""Make sure to brief him about the contract," she instructed."Yes, Ma’am."Elizabeth stepped out of the audition room, only for Catherine to catch up with her. It had been a few days since Catherine star

    CHAPTER 82Why was she always getting dragged into Catherine and Anderson's misery?She had her own share of heartbreak in the past, but she never involved anyone else in her struggles.If she weren’t so kind-hearted, she would’ve told her ex-boyfriend outright that he deserved every punch Wulfric threw at him.Still frowning, she slid the keycard into Dorothea’s condo unit door.“Dory—” Her eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when she saw her best friend kissing Rufus.Dorothea let out a high-pitched scream and shoved the man away. She even slapped him before frantically pushing him out of the unit.“Get out! Shoo! Pervert! R ape! R ape!”Elizabeth stood frozen in place. How could that be considered assault when Dorothea had clearly been enjoying herself? Her eyes were even closed in bliss during the kiss.“My lips!” Dorothea stomped her foot while furiously wiping her mouth.“B-But… h-how…?”“That pervert isn’t my boyfriend!” Dorothea fumed, her hands flailing dramatically. “He’

Even if he beat Wulfric to a pulp, it wouldn’t change the fact that his son had something to do with her father’s death. He’d mentioned her father’s name to Wulfric, knowing full well how violent her husband could be, yet he still mentioned it.Did Cairus not consider what that could lead to?“Condolences, Elizabeth. We didn’t expect Arthur to leave us this soon.”The woman who spoke reached for her hand, giving it a gentle squeeze before pulling her into a brief hug. Sensing Elizabeth’s stiffness, the woman let go and walked away, understanding that she needed space to gr

That she would wake up and still see Arthur's cheerful face lighting up whenever he looked at her.Not like the cold, lifeless body now lying before her.“P-Papa, why are you sleeping there?” Her voice was weak and trembling as she stared at her father’s pale body.He didn’t respond. Desperate, she gently shook him, but his eyes remained shut. The tears she had been holding back finally spilled over.“Papa…”Elizabeth clung to her father’s lifeless form while sobbing uncontrollably.“Wake up, Papa. Please. Please, wake up,” she pleaded. Her voice breaking like a child begging for a miracle.“You can’t leave me. You promised me. You said you’d make it up to me. I’ve only known you were my father for a year. Why did you leave me?”Her hands slipped from his lifeless body as her knees buckled, and she collapsed onto the floor.Melba quickly rushed to her side, draping a coat over her trembling shoulders.

The sound of two boys laughing and Wulfric’s deep voice echoed from inside.“Momma’s here! Momma’s here now!”Charlotte quickly slid off the couch when she spotted her mother. The children raced toward her and wrapped their little arms around her legs.“Daddy picked us up from school, Momma! Where were you?”“I went to your Grandpa Art’s house.”“You didn’t wait for us! We wanted to see Grandpa Art, too.”She gently pinched Lottie’s cheek. “Next time, okay?”Obediently, Lottie nodded before running back to Wulfric, proudly announcing her mother’s presence as though he hadn’t noticed.“Daddy’s home now! Momma, say ‘I miss you’ to him!”Elizabeth hesitated, unsure whether to approach Wulfric or stay where she was and wait for him to make the first move.Angus and Earl gave her a playful shove.She stumbled right into Wu

No excuses.”She gave her friend a faint smile and glanced at the names printed on the scented paper.She couldn’t help but feel a twinge of envy. Dory could freely go out and meet people. Her best friend was a career woman, while she spent her days staring at the walls of a massive mansion.“Don’t be sad. Talk to Alpha again and tell him you want to work.”“I already did,” she said, shaking her head. She wanted to push her husband further, but how could she when even his shadow was nowhere to be found?She and the kids had been staying at the manor for several days, and during those three days, her husband hadn’t come home even once.“I’m sure you two will make up. Your husband loves you so much.”“He doesn’t trust me. He even accused me of having an affair with the Chairman. I’m not Eva. I would never stoop to her

Saying something like that to Angus felt like treating the boy as a dog that could simply be given away.“I love Momma and Papa. But you’re my father, Chairman. Papa Wulf may not like it.”“Use your brain, kid. I’m giving you an idea to have a complete family. Your mother isn’t coming back.”“Don’t you like me, Chairman?”The sad tone of his brother’s voice made Wulfric’s jaw tighten. He could tell Angus was holding back tears and struggling not to break down.“You’re a bastard. There’s no place for you—”Wulfric’s patience snapped. He kicked the door open with force. His fists clenched as he stormed toward the two, and both frozen in shock at his sudden appearance.“You motherfucker! Heartless old man!”“We’re having a conversation, Nikolaus Wulfric. I didn’t ask you here to my office,” Chairman Channing said coldly.“Fuck your rules.” Wulfric pointed at Angus. “He’s

A sharp gasp escaped Elizabeth as her husband raised his hand, ready to punch his father.“Wulfric!”His eyes blazing with anger. Despite her fear, Elizabeth grabbed his arm and pulled down his clenched fist. But Wulfric yanked her down the stairs without care, his long strides dragging her along. The pain in her injured foot worsened with every step.Tears threatened to spill, but she bit them back and endured the ache.When they reached the car parked near the front door, Wulfric practically shoved her inside.“We’re going home,” he said coldly.“But you already agreed the kids and I could stay here tonight.”“That was before I saw you talking to Cairus!” he snapped, walking around to the driver’s seat.“He’s your father. My father-in-law. The children’s grandfather!” she reasoned, listing the obvious but none of it seemed to sink in.“I don’t want you talking to him. Or to any other man!”Elizabeth flin

They encircled Elizabeth like predators cornering their prey.“Shut your mouth, woman!” One of the men barked while stepping forward. He grabbed her wrist, and nearly twisted it as he forcibly pulled her away from the older woman’s hand.“Let go of my mom!” Angus wailed and kicked the man’s legs in a desperate attempt to free her.The child’s cries grew louder when the man shoved him to the floor.“Uncle Itho, you're hurting our cousin!” Francheska screamed, before rushing to Angus’s side.Logan and the other cousins quickly stepped in, shielding Elizabeth from further harm. Holand seized Itho’s arm and yanked him away.“Stay away from Lady Channing,” Holand said coldly, his voice sharp enough to cut through the chaos.“You’re just a servant of the Chairman,” Itho sneered.Holand moved closer, his presence chilling the room further

When she was introduced as Wulfric’s wife, a few raised their brows, giving her a once-over from head to toe.Others, however, welcomed her warmly. Logan had been right—Chairman Channing’s distant relatives were traditional in their thinking. On the other hand, her husband’s generation was the complete opposite of their parents.“You should come with us, Lizzy!” Francheska exclaimed enthusiastically. She was Logan and Suzane’s sister, all three being second cousins to her husband on his father’s side.“Don’t influence my wife, Cheska. I know exactly what you’re up to,” Wulfric warned. His arm firmly wrapped around Elizabeth’s waist.“You’re such a killjoy, Wolfy.”“Don’t push it, Ches,” Logan said with a laugh. “Wulf could cut your allowance.”Francheska pouted dramatically, hooking her arm around Elizabeth’s and leaning on her as if pleading.“Wolfy is so grumpy,” she whispered that made Elizabeth stifle a giggle.
