In January, Goldmoor's chill still lingered in the air, almost freezing.

Britney Hammond stepped out of the shopping mall, tightening her white wool coat, revealing a face of breathtaking beauty. Carrying the items she had chosen, she got into a private car, her beautiful face glowing with joy as she glanced at the things beside her.

“Miss, the new in-law was such a lucky man to be having you as his wife!” the old driver chuckled.

“Diego!” Britney softly chided, though her cheeks were tinged with a blush.

Her slender fingers gently caressed the texture of the black sweater inside the shopping bag, and her heart was filled with indescribable joy. The wedding date was set for the end of January, which was a good day. This meant that in just three days, she would be marrying him.

As the wedding day approached, she would always go shopping with her best friend, and they would only look at things that were not others, but items that she had bought for him according to his preferences.

Lost in thought, Diego had skillfully parked the car in front of a small villa and respectfully opened the door for Britney.

Britney carried her things and walked towards the villa with a light and brisk pace.

Walking up to the door of the room, Britney blew a breath of hot air into her palm and opened the door without any forewarning.

 As she stepped inside, her gaze fell upon the sight of two intertwined bodies on the red wedding bed, a harsh and unsettling image that filled her with shock and discomfort.

The intimate sounds reached her ears,

and the movements on the bed stilled, as if sensing someone had entered.

Her soon-to-be husband, who she had thought of as devoted and perfect, was staring at her with a face still filled with desire, seemingly caught off guard.

However, that desire was for someone else.

Underneath him lay a woman with beautiful figure, she even pulled him down and pouted when she didn't get the satisifaction. However,  after realizing Britney's presence, shyly tried to cover herself with the bedsheet next to her.

"Cousin!" The voice was weak, completely different from the excited tone just now.

"Britney..."

The man nervously picked up the clothes next to him to cover his lower body. He took a few steps toward Britney, and tried to reach for her, but she stepped back and dodged his hand.

Britney’s  upbringing made her try to stay calm, not crying or making a fuss.clenched the items in her hands tightly, as if seeking for a hint of support. Step by step, she retreated and walked towards the living room.

Five minutes later, the two people who were just naked a moment ago, were already dressed and sitting across from Britney.

"Cousin, I will sever this relationship with Conrad!" said Stephanie Hammond, Britney's cousin who is one month younger than her.

Britney ignored Stephanie and kept staring at Conrad Schwartz, who had a pained expression on his face and remained silent.

Seeing that her words had no effect, Stephanie knelt on the ground, hands on her lower abdomen, looking distressed. “I won’t keep this child… I won’t get in the way of your marriage! Please, don’t blame Conrad!”

Conrad heard these words, looked up, and his eyes met Britney's gaze.

The man in front of her, who had once made countless promises of eternal love, collapsed in an instant. She couldn't believe it. The man who had treated her so well in front of others, when proposing to her in front of everyone, said, "Britney, I only want to marry you in this lifetime! I only love you! I only cherish you!" But then he turned around and got involved with her cousin, and even had a child with her!

"I had no interest in second-hand goods!" Britney said with a low voice tinged with sarcasm. Her heart was being twisted painfully...

"Britney!" Conrad exclaimed incredulously as he looked at the woman in front of him. He couldn't believe that the gentle and elegant woman would utter such heartless words.

"I have said before that what I want is loyalty in love. Since you are not loyal to our love, we are done!" Britney said, speaking so decisively.

"But... in three days, we were going to have our wedding!" Conrad said.

Britney laughed, a cold laugh. "So, you want me to pretend that everything between you two never happened? Or should I be your first wife, she'll be your second?" Britney finished speaking and looked at Stephanie. Stephanie stared back at Britney, but her eyes no longer held the softness they had before. Instead, there was a hint of coldness.

Britney paid no attention to Stephanie's almost hostile gaze and instead looked at Conrad, who remained silent across from her.

Scenes from the past flashed through Britney's mind, contrasting with the present... Conrad's attitude left Britney feeling numb with pain.

"Britney!" Conrad walked over, trying to grab Britney's hand. Britney stood up, without a moment's hesitation, turned around and left!

Stephanie held Conrad's hand from behind, leading him back into the room. "Conrad, give her some time to calm down first!" she said, turning her back but with a smug smile on her lips.

Britney walked step by step, her footsteps floating, looking somewhat disheveled.

Every tree and every blade of grass here has been infused with her heart and soul,  she feared that any imperfection might mar their marriage. But from now on, she would never come here again!

It was a cold winter day, but Britney didn't feel cold at this moment.

Just walked out of the villa gate.

Two cars, coming from two different directions, were driving towards here without slowing down, but instead getting faster.

"Bang..." A loud crash.

Inside the heated, intimate bedroom, the man once again climbed onto the red wedding bed, unaware of the crash outside.

    After hesitating for two seconds, Britney swiped to answer the call, saying, “Hello!”In contrast to Britney's indifference, Conrad on the other end of the phone appeared particularly excited."Britney, you finally answered the phone!""Tomorrow at ten o'clock, Peninsula Cafe!"Without giving Conrad any chance, she hung up the phone.

    In the luxurious suite, Conrad wore a simple white robe, with sparkling water droplets hanging from his brown hair, and even droplets of water dripping onto the snow-white sheets along his resolute profile."Britney, I loved you! Stephanie and I... it was just a momentary confusion..."“You love me, right? You believe in me, right?”However, the person in the bed did not respond, only the sound of steady breathing.He gently and slowly touched the beautiful cheek of the sleeping woman with his fingertips, feeling the wonderful sensation, which surprised him greatly.Gradually, he became dissatisfied with this and wanted more. His hand slowly slid down...Twenty minutes ago, a low-profile commercial vehicle was traveling at a constant speed on the road.Inside the car, the man's lips curved slightly as he looked at the words "call ended" on the screen."Fiancé"Just a second later, the man's slender eyebrows furrowed without leaving a trace."Get the plane ready, now!

    Britney woke up, and it was already late afternoon.The moment Britney opened her eyes and looked at the hotel's iconic chandelier, her heart skipped a beat.Anxiously pulling back the covers, she breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing her clothes intact."Phew!"She lifted her gaze and met a pair of deep, starry eyes, as if they could see through everything, which made Britney feel deeply moved.The man sat upright on the chair beside the bed, dressed in a neat and stylish suit. His handsome and unblemished facial features did not fade away because of his short hair, but instead highlighted the competent temperament that a man should possess.For the first time, it was her first time seeing a man with such short hair, and he looked so handsome.Britney snapped back to reality, her cheeks flushing pink from the mind wandering. “Did he leave?” Obviously she was asking about Conrad."Mmm!" The voice was deep and rich, like a cup of carefully brewed hot coffee, intoxicating and lingering.

    It was only two seconds, and Britney even thought that the moment just now was just an illusion.Looking up, Britney unexpectedly caught a faint hint of red on Manuel's indifferent face.Is it his first time?"With a stamp as proof!" Manuel exclaimed, then swiftly departed. He touched his thin lips, still feeling the sweet and soft sensation from just now, almost losing control.Britney reached towards her lips, still carrying a hint of warmth. She felt a surge of delight—could it be that she had seduced a virgin?Let's see, Manuel should be around 27, 28 years old! Has he never been with a woman at this age? Could it be that he has been too focused on training in the training area and lived a very austere life?Britney took Bryant back to the Castro's villa.As she pondered how to explain to her parents about Bryant—After all, it's not a grown man following her around.She hadn’t even stepped through the door before she heard a sharp voice.Britney was well aware of this sound.

    "No need! The Schwartz family invited us to have dinner tonight!"Whether intentional or unintentional, Maxwell's words carried a hint of pride.Britney recalled that Conrad did not succeed this morning and instead made plans with Stephanie's family, which could be considered as accepting the conditions she proposed.Britney's family saw them off as they left."Cousin! You wouldn't mind, would you?" Stephanie deliberately slowed down her pace."Stephanie, there's no need to put on airs in front of me!"The calmer and more peaceful Britney appeared, the more it ignited Stephanie's jealousy."Britney, I don't believe for a second that you don't feel anything!" Stephanie taunted. "In two days, Conrad will be marrying me! Not you!"Catching a glimpse of Stephanie's proud face, Britney simply smiled faintly.In the past, Stephanie couldn't stand it if she had something good and didn't have a share of it. The family education always reminded her that she was their cousin, and if they could

    Goldmoor, Seventh Club, top-tier private room.In a slightly dim environment, colorful and dazzling lights dotted everywhere.Women wearing revealing clothes, passionate music..."Mr. Calderon, how long has it been since you last came...""Women! So delicous. It just feels so great holding them in your arms!" He said, then leaned in and kissed each of the beautiful women on their cheeks, his hands also wandering around, causing the women to giggle ambiguously.“Manuel, only you could bear to send me to that godforsaken place!”Although angry, still smiling.Sitting on the genuine leather sofa, Manuel elegantly lifted his wine glass, swaying the dark liquid inside. His deep eyes were lost in thought. And across from him sat his good friend, Raiden Calderon, with whom he had grown up and faced life and death together."Was there any gain?"Raiden was about to touch that seductive and alluring skin when Manuel asked a question, immediately dampening his enthusiasm. He knew...Raiden wave

    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
