Diana seemed to be immersed in memories of the past.
"He actually asked me out, but he didn't mean anything else. We just talked about the past, and he also knew that I was already married and had a happy family with a precious daughter, which made him happy for me. He also kept praising you in front of me, saying that you are more outstanding than me."
At this point, a proud smile appeared on Diana's lips.
"I went... I was almost scared to death! I thought a cheesy plot from a children's book was going to come to life. Turns out, Britney is actually that person's child!"
Karsyn couldn't help but interrupt.
Britney gritted her teeth and tapped the driver's seat. "What are you saying!"
"How is that possible? He had been abroad for several years when I got together with Britney's father and had her," Diana patiently explained, without blaming Karsyn for his thoughtless words.
Karsyn sighed and patted her chest.
Damn it!

At this moment, the sound of a text message suddenly came from the phone on the bedside. Before I could reach out to touch it, Manuel pressed down my jade arm.The smooth and tender skin was like the finest silk, with a faint pink hue on top."The light..."Britney, who was pinned down on the bed, slowly opened her lips. Manuel looked at her slightly parted lips, and his eyes sparkled with a radiant and gentle light.In the end, she couldn't really let go of these things.Manuel turned to the side and switched off the dazzling crystal chandelier in the room, leaving only a warm yellow bedside lamp.The atmosphere became even more enchanting, with a hint of ambiguity.The long black wavy hair was spread on the soft bed, with fair and delicate facial features. Her eyes, as black as ink, shimmered with a mesmerizing glow under the warm light. A gentle smile slowly appeared at the corner of her lips, and her eyes were filled with a tender
Britney applied ointment to herself in the bathroom.Suddenly, the body no longer had the burning pain, but instead gained a cool and comfortable sensation.The pain momentarily eased...Manuel, this man, is truly someone who evokes both love and hate!Britney twisted the ointment cap, turned on the water in the sink, released hot water, and began washing her face and brushing her teeth.I applied skincare products and saw my face in the mirror. I didn't know if it was because Manuel had just made me angry, but my cheeks were still a little red.After leaving the bathroom, Manuel was no longer in the room.As Manuel said, the ointment's effectiveness was indeed quite good. After a few minutes, walking became much easier, and the pain that felt like tearing was no longer present.When Britney was changing clothes, she almost didn't recognize her own body.His whole body was covered in bruises, as if every pore was complai
Mrs. Castro was a kind and gentle woman. She lived in a small house on the outskirts of town. Every morning, she would wake up early and tend to her garden. She loved flowers and took great pride in her beautiful roses. In the afternoons, she would often visit her neighbors and chat with them over a cup of tea. She was well-liked by everyone in the community. Unfortunately, Mrs. Castro passed away last year. Her presence is greatly missed, but her memory lives on in the hearts of those who knew her.Britney had heard this nickname so often that she had become accustomed to it.After saying thank you to Bryant, she entered the office building, wearing high heels.Clock in, take the elevator, go straight to the department floor, walk into her own department, Britney entered the workplace, exuding confidence and composure."Come with me to the office!" Britney stood in Hugh's workspace and said to him."Good!"Hugh responded by folding the alre
Britney lifted her fingers lightly from the computer keyboard, a mocking curve forming at the corner of her mouth.She would look quite attractive if she could use that confidence to work hard. But the key is, what's the use of just boasting about it without actually doing anything?Geovanni, with his unrestrained nature, was only suitable for living under the radiance of his parents and coming to work at the company.Laughing and shaking her head, Britney continued to type on the keyboard.Her patience with Uncle's family was only limited to this point. If they caused any more trouble, she would no longer tolerate it. No matter how much she said, it was useless; the other party needed to know when to stop.Britney's work status was still good for the day. She managed to consolidate the reports submitted by each person before leaving work. She planned to take the remaining work home to work overtime.She did not forget the phone call in the
"To be honest, at that time, I was really confused!" Carlos shrugged.At this moment, the boy who had just gone out to fetch water bumped into the door with his body, holding two cups of water in his hands.Specifically, Britney's drink was bought outside.Britney took it and thanked the boy."Carlos, there was no milk tea that Ms. Hammond liked. So I just bought a random cup..." The boy leaned in closer to Carlos's ear, his voice getting quieter as he spoke."It's all good! You don't have to go out and buy it just for me," she heard the boy's voice in the quiet environment, as they were close by.She also knew that in a place where such men were prevalent, it was impossible to have any other options, so she started off by saying plain water.Carlos raised his hand in the air, but he didn't wave it down. "Get out!"Britney looked at the way the two of them interacted and couldn't help but wonder how they ended up together.
Britney's ears turned red. "Manuel, you are shameless!"He actually wanted to take advantage of her curiosity to satisfy his own desires!No one is more shameless than him!Manuel seemed satisfied with Britney's reaction. The corners of his mouth slightly lifted as he forcefully blocked her with his strong arms, and he attacked with one hand...The sound of a man's voice lingered in her ear."What is a face?"He had long abandoned her when he was with her. Besides, can a face provide him with meat every day?No!What was it used for?His gaze deepened, he lowered his eyes and glanced at her body pressed against his chest. With each rise and fall of her breath, just one look was enough to drive someone crazy.Although both of them were wearing clothes, their posture was ambiguous. Manuel had one hand around Britney, preventing her from escaping, while his other hand was groping her tender flesh around her waist, th
Manuel had a straight back line, with attractive curves, and he was wearing a pair of dark-colored sweatpants on his lower body."Britney, why don't you come closer and take a look? I don't mind..."He turned towards Britney, his eyes surging like waves, and a deep voice resonated between the two of them.A strong and powerful upper body, with clearly defined and soft lines of an eight-pack abs, appeared before Britney's eyes...In that moment, all of Britney's rationality vanished, and her mind went blank.Suddenly, he looked up and instantly plunged into the bright galaxy that was as dark as a night pool."I... I'll tell you later," Britney said, closing the door behind her. She stood at the doorway, touching her flushed cheeks and taking a deep breath, trying to compose her fluctuating emotions.Early in the morning, seeing Manuel's bare upper body was really not a good thing!Although she wasn't particularly passionate, she
"Wait a minute!" Britney looked up from the documents.Malia stopped in her tracks and asked, "Team leader, do you have any further instructions?""Has Barrett been with the company for a few years?" Britney casually asked.Malia thought for a moment, "Barrett, it should have been over ten years, he is considered a senior member of the company. What's wrong, team leader?""Not a big deal. You can go down."Malia was a little stunned by Ms. Hammond's question, but she didn't ask any more and gently closed the door when she left.After Malia left, Britney went through the materials she brought one by one. After confirming that there were no issues, she took the files and went directly to the floor where the chairman was located, using the elevator.The chairman's secretary saw that it was Britney, and did not stop her, and told her that the chairman was inside.She knocked on the door of the chairman's office, and waited for perm
Skyler had fallen asleep, but her mind remained alert. After all, Raiden had left a psychological scar on her today.As soon as Raiden mentioned being hungry, she couldn't help but complain to herself. He hadn't felt hungry earlier, and now, suddenly, he was.But despite the resentment in her heart, she didn’t dare voice it. After all, he was the young master, and she was just a servant..."Should I heat it up for you?" Since this "ancestor" had called for her, it was clear he wouldn’t do it himself. And it was late, so the other family members had likely already gone to sleep.Sure enough, the young master kicked his feet and said, "Should I do it myself?" If he was going to do it himself, why bother calling her? The real reason was that he couldn’t sleep and, seeing her sleep soundly beside him, a psychological urge stirred within him.If he couldn’t sleep, neither should she. It was a kind of unhealthy mentality.He wanted to wake her up
Skyler finally had the chance to observe the entire room. The decor was simple yet refined.A large sky-blue bed, a desk with a desktop LCD computer, and some model decorations—all expensive just at a glance. It matched his unruly personality well. However, it was clear he didn’t come home often; everything here still looked brand new."Where are you sleeping? Why are you asking me?"Since his father let her move in, he must have arranged a place for her."Do you have an extra blanket? I’ll sleep on the floor."The bed was big enough for two people, and she had slept with him before—otherwise, how would she have gotten pregnant? But at this moment, she didn’t dare sleep with him. She hadn’t forgotten the way he had looked downstairs, as if he wanted to devour her alive.She didn’t dare provoke him again, afraid that if she shared a bed with him, she might not even know how she died.She knew t
"Do you think you've found yourself a backer now? Is that why you feel so important?"Raiden’s tone was full of sarcasm.He looked exactly like a little kid afraid of losing his father's love.It’s often said that women mature faster than men, and Skyler was one of those women. She could see exactly what Raiden was upset about, and a smile tugged at her lips."No, Mr.Calderon! My biggest backer is you," Skyler admitted her mistake.Like hell he’d believe that! The innocence she had before was completely gone now.Raiden let out a cold snort and sneered, "Skyler, I didn't expect your appetite to be this big. First, you took my house, and now, in the blink of an eye, you've managed to squeeze a fortune out of my dad. Did your brain suddenly become enlightened? You’re making money at an impressive speed!""Mr.Calderon, I did go back on my word in this matter. I’m sorry! Here’s the key to the house you
Every parent, when talking about their child, always wears the kindest smile. Frankie was no exception. And when he thought about the fact that he would soon become a grandfather, his mood improved even more.Feeling good, he couldn’t help but chat a little more with Skyler.As Frankie flipped through old photos of Raiden’s childhood and talked about his younger days, Skyler truly saw how adorable he had been as a child.Uncle Calderon wasn’t lying—Mr.Calderon had been handsome since he was little.Big eyes, double eyelids, a high nose bridge, rosy lips, pearly white teeth, and fair skin—all combined with that charmingly arrogant expression…Skyler subconsciously placed her hand on her belly, wondering if the baby inside would be just as good-looking. If it were a girl and took after Mr.Calderon, she certainly wouldn’t be unattractive."Master, dinner is ready!" a servant came forward and announced.
"She should take a good look at herself! She doesn't want to marry me?" Raiden shouted.Who did she think she was? And who was he? Since when did a woman have the right to reject him?Since he was old enough to understand things, he had been surrounded by countless women, all vying for his attention. Which woman didn't want to marry him?Raiden sneered internally. This woman was definitely playing hard to get in front of his father, trying to win his favor so that he would pressure him into marrying her.I didn't see this coming.Skyler, so you dare play tricks on me!Skyler shivered slightly under Raiden’s sharp gaze. Was it a crime now to not want to marry him?Frankie stepped forward and kicked his own son. "And you should take a good look at yourself!"That kick wasn’t light. Raiden gasped in pain and quickly pulled his leg back to clutch it.Damn it!He was almost thirty, yet his old man still kicked him with
When Raiden walked in, he actually found that woman in his house!Without a word, he rushed up to her, grabbed her wrist, and started dragging her outside with large strides."Mr.Calderon, what are you doing?" Caught off guard by his strength, Skyler’s wrist throbbed in pain as she frowned and couldn't help but cry out."Don't ask, just come with me!"As soon as Raiden received a call from the person he had arranged to take Skyler to the hospital, he rushed back immediately.He had sent her to get an abortion, and she was already on the operating table—yet somehow, the old trickster in his family had intercepted her! Just thinking about how the plan was almost completed but was suddenly interrupted made him incredibly frustrated.How could he not know what that old fox was scheming?For the past few years, every time he returned home, the old man would pester him about marriage. Eventually, he got so fed up that he outrigh
Frankie was setting up Skyler, but unfortunately, she was too young and inexperienced to realize it. She had never encountered such schemes before, let alone faced an old fox like Frankie.At first, Skyler had no idea who had decided against her abortion. It wasn’t until she had spoken with Frankie for a while that she finally understood—it was the old master himself who wanted to keep his grandchild.She had already promised Raiden that she would terminate the pregnancy, and she had struggled internally for a long time. But in the end, her heart leaned toward keeping the child.“However, I have three conditions.”“Go ahead, go ahead…” Frankie was so delighted that she had agreed that he would have accepted a hundred conditions if necessary.“First, after the child is born, I want to be able to visit them whenever I wish. But you can rest assured—I will only be visiting the child and will have
Raiden’s Father...Hearing Frankie's words, Skyler couldn't help but look up. He wasn’t like what she had imagined. The middle-aged man in front of her was well-maintained, looking energetic and full of vitality. His smile was warm and friendly. There were indeed some resemblances between him and Raiden—he must have been quite a charming man in his younger years.Seeing her subtly relax, Frankie chuckled, “What do you think? Not quite what you imagined, right?”Having her thoughts seen through so easily, Skyler blushed, feeling slightly embarrassed. “It’s a bit different from what I expected,” she admitted.“Sit down and talk. I’m not used to looking up at people while speaking.” Frankie deliberately said this, knowing that otherwise, she wouldn’t sit down.Just as he had anticipated, Skyler realized that standing while talking to someone like this was somewhat impolite. Beside
Skyler looked at the cold, sterile operating table, her steps heavy as she walked over and lay down with the nurse’s help. Staring at her still-flat stomach, she silently whispered to the tiny life inside her, "Baby, I'm sorry."He had been so well-behaved. She had heard that during the first three months of pregnancy, morning sickness was common, sometimes severe enough to make one feel like the world was spinning. Yet, she hadn’t experienced any of that—she felt just like a normal person. She knew her baby must be a very obedient child.Unfortunately, she had no ability to keep him. If she forced his birth, he would only suffer alongside her.So, I’m sorry. It’s because I’m not brave enough…She had never intended to keep this child, but that didn’t mean she had no feelings for him. He was, after all, her own flesh and blood."Miss Oneal, we’re going to administer the anesthesia now. Try to r
