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...

    When Karsyn saw the long-awaited figure, her heart seemed to beat faster than a few beats.Britney had long been accustomed to seeing Karsyn in this way."Oh my god, Karsyn, you are a Melton! You don't need to be so desperate, do you?"Britney didn't know what to say about Karsyn's love life anymore."My dear Britney, will you accompany me?"Being shaken by Karsyn's hand, Britney could only sigh as she watched her anxious expression and the confident man standing out from the crowd."I knew my babe wouldn't abandon me!"Karsyn walked into the crowd, holding Britney's hand.Karsyn's crush happened to be the eldest son of the Schwartz family, Franklin Schwartz. Who knows if it was fate that led them both to fall in love with the sons of the Schwartz family. However, in the past, she and Conrad were deeply in love. As for Franklin, Karsyn's love for him was unrequited, and the whole town of Goldmoor knew about it. She liked him so much that even outsiders couldn't believe it. Karsyn onc

    "Stephanie, don't assume that everyone is as lowly as you!"“Look who’s talking, as if you and your mother were so ‘noble’,” Stephanie shot back as she finished applying her lipstick, glancing over at Britney. “Don’t forget, your mom is just a third-rate actress! If this were ancient times, she would only be a concubine, never a legitimate wife!”"Snap!"Britney raised her hand and slapped Stephanie straight across the face, who hadn't reacted in time. Immediately, five finger marks appeared on Stephanie's freshly made-up face.Seeing that handprint, Britney felt extremely delighted! Influenced by her parents, she always had a humble attitude towards Stephanie. She never expected to feel so comfortable in this moment. It's just that her own strength is still not strong enough."Stephanie, it's fine if you hate me! Because I also happen to hate you! This slap is to teach you to respect the elderly and love the young! My mom is not someone you can insult!" Britney bent down again and pl

    With a sobbing tone in her voice, tears welled up in her almond-shaped eyes as she gazed at the slender figure. The next second, glistening tears streamed down her delicate little face.Franklin, with his back to Karsyn, stopped in his tracks but didn’t turn around. “From now on, it’s better that we don’t see each other.”The voice was as merciless as ice and snow, causing Karsyn to choke and sob uncontrollably.If there were a drug that could help her forget this unwanted love, Karsyn thought she would drink it without hesitation! Loving him had become exhausting… a love without an end in sight… But unfortunately, there was none! And she stubbornly clung to her feelings…Just out of the toilet, Britney intended to find Karsyn, but her stomach started to ache, and she just wanted to find a place to sit down. It was the first day of her period, and she had the problem of menstrual cramps. After this day, she would be fine as if nothing had happened.She wondered if she could make it u

    "I had something to do, so I won't disturb you anymore!"A cold and low voice, hiding a hint of chill, directly refused without giving the other party any face.The next second, Britney felt an unusual temperature in her cold palms. Before Britney could react, her body had already followed that tall and sturdy figure, being led away by Manuel.Standing on the lush green lawn, Manuel faced Britney and held her hand."Why are your hands so cold?" Manuel's icy eyes flickered with concern."Every winter is like this, but it gets better in spring." Britney has gotten used to it, and she has actually seen many doctors and taken many supplements, but it was all in vain.Standing under the grand courtyard, being looked at like this by Manuel, Britney blushed.Holding Britney's fair hand, Manuel earnestly gazed at her rosy face. "In every future winter, you will have me! Being with me, you don't have to care about others' opinions."In an instant, the overwhelming feeling of satisfaction fille

    The wedding came to a complete end.The departing guests, still lingering with the memory of the extravagant wedding just now, couldn't help but continue their discussions, with some gossiping specifically about Britney.Britney and Karsyn didn't want to listen to gossip as they walked out of the Platinum Hotel.As Britney stepped out of the hotel door, pink and yellow rose petals filled the air, falling slowly from the sky like snowflakes. Instantly, a refreshing floral scent filled the air.Britney looked a bit stunned...She stretched out her hand, took a piece of delicate and dripping flower petal, and laid it quietly in her palm...While everyone was surprised and discussing, two drones appeared in the sky, trailing two red banners."Britney""I love you."At this moment, an elegant and tall figure emerged from behind a nearby marble pillar and walked straight towards Britney.With a large bouquet of roses in hand, he knelt down on one knee, his voice deep and filled with tendern

    Although she was already past the age for falling in love, Britney still couldn't exclude these feelings.Britney was taken to a super-sized pink hot air balloon and, with the help of the staff, she and Manuel boarded the balloon and slowly ascended into the sky.Looking at every blade of grass and every object on the ground, slowly shrinking, everything seemed to disappear except for them.Facing Manuel alone, Britney felt a sudden panic and a hint of shyness in her heart."Because time was tight, so many things were arranged by them. But they were all my ideas... Is it a bit childish?" Manuel's usually cold face showed a rare hint of nervousness.Actually, these should have happened twenty years ago. Unfortunately... it was twenty years too late.Britney's exquisite features brought a slight smile to her face. It was unexpected to see that Manuel, who had previously left a cold and distant impression on people, had such a side."I have never been in a relationship before, but I will

    Quinten's words made Britney furrow her brows and stop the action of picking up the food."Manuel used to be such an outstanding person at Goldmoor. Although I didn't have much interaction with him, just a few encounters made me realize that he was not ordinary! I even thought he would take over the Castro family business in the future, but I didn't expect him to suddenly go to the training area!"Quinten seemed lost in memories, his face becoming slightly solemn, as he spoke in a deliberate manner."Dad, do you mean to say that his going to the training area wasn't so simple?" Britney knew very little about these matters, after all, in the past, her eyes were only on Conrad.Quinten nodded.“Dad, if Manuel really is that exceptional and becomes the son-in-law of the Hammond family, we won’t be at a loss!” Britney picked up a piece of crispy duck and handed it to her father. “If you really have concerns, you can help me assess the situation when both families meet the day after tomorr

    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
