It was completely dark out now, and the wind suddenly picked up. The wind was so strong that it sent the leaves flying everywhere. Sonnet could barely open her eyes.She pulled her coat closer and moved forward with difficulty until she finally reached the subway station nearby.She took the train to the closest stop to Westfield Hospital. When she emerged from the station, she suddenly saw that it was drizzling. Since Westfield Hospital was only two bus stops away, it made no sense to hail a cab there. She decided to walk to the hospital instead.As she was walking there halfway, though, the wind suddenly blew into a gale and the rain became heavier. Sonnet ran to Westfield Hospital. By the time she arrived, most of her coat and her hair were drenched.Maxwell could barely bear to see her like that. He hastily took off her coat for her and wiped her hair with a towel.Mrs. Wilson watched coldly as her Young Master carefully dried Sonnet's hair, feeling far from pleased. "
Sonnet's body was suddenly pushed against the wall. It just showed how much force Maxwell put into that kiss.After that, she wrapped her arms around Maxwell's neck and responded to his kiss passionately. Ever since she decided to give herself to him, her feelings for him had grown even stronger. After just one night of sleeping alone, she realized how much she really missed him. Now that he was kissing her so passionately, she let go of her inhibitions and responded in kind.The two of them kissed like there was no tomorrow, their bodies pressed close as though they wanted to melt into each other. Mrs. Wilson turned red just watching them. She had never dated or married all her life, so she was as innocent as a little girl in these matters. Her blood almost boiled over when she saw such an intimate scene.She wanted to turn and leave, but on second thoughts she forced herself to stay and keep watching. No, she could not leave. She had to keep an eye on the two of them s
Judging by their conversation just now, did it mean Sonnet and the Young Master had yet to consummate their marriage?Hmph!She was such a cunning witch. She had been living off the Young Master's fortune, yet she never even gave him her body after all this time!And now that she was going to tell him about her children, she suddenly decided to sleep with him?Mrs. Wilson was not going to let her trick the Young Master like that!Mrs. Wilson huffed for a bit before something occurred to her. If the Young Master had yet to sleep with her, wouldn't that make it easier to tear them apart?And here Mrs. Wilson was worried that he would be too attached to her body to let her go. Mrs. Wilson burst out laughing. The Young Master was a full-blooded adult man, after all. What if she arranged another girl for him and gave him another taste first?In that case, the Young Master's affections would probably transfer from Sonnet to that other girl!What a brilliant plan!Now all she had
The address Mrs. Wilson gave was not far from Westfield Hospital. Maxwell arrived after a ten-minute drive.He asked Lewis to wait downstairs while he went up to get the girl.At the door to the room, he rang the doorbell and a girl’s voice could be heard from the inside. “Who is it?”“Mary Wilson asked me to come and pick you up,” Maxwell said from the outside.Mary Wilson was Mrs. Wilson.The door opened with a creak and a girl appeared before Maxwell.She was about 18-19 years old. She was pretty, with big eyes and thick eyebrows. Her skin was tanned. At the same time, she was tall and slim, with a very nice body.She wore a black lace nightdress that showed the curves of a mature woman.Maxwell was stunned.“Are you… Diane Luther?” Maxwell cleared his throat and asked.“Y-Yes. Are you Mr. Brooks?”“I am. Mrs. Wilson asked me to get you. Um, please put on your clothes and come with me.”As Maxwell said that, his eyes started to wander.He pinched his palm fiercely.‘Wh
This made him look abnormal.Sonnet’s heart tightened. She held his face, asking, “What’s wrong, Maxwell?”Maxwell did not answer. Instead, he gasped for air.“Maxwell?” Sonnet called out softly.Maxwell finally lifted his eyes to stare at her blankly.“Maxwell, do you feel unwell… Ugh!”Before Sonnet could finish, Maxwell pounced on her and pressed her against the wet tiles of the bathroom.Maxwell was feeling dizzy. Suddenly, he tasted something salty on his lips.He was taken aback when he suddenly realized what it was. He stopped and looked at the woman whom he had trapped in his arms.Her face was wet with tears. She looked devastated.At that moment, Maxwell felt like he was stabbed in the heart. It was excruciating.Maxwell slowly came back to his senses.What did he do? He was about to force the woman he loved and almost hurt her!He pulled his arms away as if electrocuted. “Go. Go now!”Sonnet ran out of the bathroom, gasping for air and using the wall for suppor
Diane had changed out of her black lace nightdress. Now she was wearing a normal oversized white T-shirt and a pair of jeans.She sat on the sofa with her head lowered, looking like a school kid who had been caught making a mistake.Alex stood next to her. He was burly, a cold expression on his face, looking terrifying.When he saw Maxwell walk in, there was a look of respect on Alex’s cold face. “Mr. Brooks.”Maxwell nodded to him. “Did you find out who instructed her?”Alex looked embarrassed. “She said Mrs. Cain asked her to do this, saying that if she’s able to make you take a fancy to her, she can leave her destitute family.”Maxwell frowned. “Mrs. Cain?”“Mrs. Wilson’s cousin.”Maxwell’s face turned cold as he looked at Diane. “What did Mrs. Cain ask you to do?”Diane widened her eyes at the man in front of her. Mrs. Cain told her this man was mentally challenged so it would be easy to take him down, but why…“Why? Do you really want to be in that kind of business?” Max
Mrs. Wilson looked at Maxwell blankly.He was indeed different from before. His eyes were cold, with prestige in his voice. Moreover, his entire demeanor seemed cold and powerful.‘He doesn’t seem like the young master from before…’Maxwell smirked when he saw Mrs. Wilson silent. “Mrs. Wilson, your orange juice was not bad. I think you spent a lot of effort to get the extra ingredient in the juice, right?”Mrs. Wilson’s expression changed. She stared at Maxwell and could not get a single word out after moving her lips.‘He doesn’t look and sound like a fool!‘Is it possible that he had become smarter after doing that with the girl?‘No, he’s not only slightly smarter. He looks like he’s always like this!’Mrs. Wilson was too alarmed and shocked. She was so shocked she could not speak.Maxwell crossed his arms across his chest and said coldly, “Alright, stop pretending to be shocked. Tell me, who instructed you to drug my orange juice?”His words were like a clap of thunder pu
Maxwell could not hold back his laughter. “So you decided to drug my orange juice so something will happen between me and that Diane girl?”Mrs. Wilson nodded. “I just thought that you’re so innocent and you’ve never slept with Sonnet before. Maybe another young girl will let you get the taste of intimacy so that you will stop paying attention to Sonnet again…”Her voice became softer towards the end as Maxwell stared at her.Maxwell was even more amused now. “Mrs. Wilson, you’re something else. You even know I never slept with Sonnet. How do you know?”“I… I accidentally overheard you talking to her…” Mrs. Wilson looked at her fingers like a school kid who was caught.Maxwell did not know what to say.He pointed at Mrs. Wilson a few times before asking, “Is that all?”“Yes!” Mrs. Wilson lifted her fingers to swear. “I’m only doing this for your own good! If I’m lying, I will let Miss come into my dream every night to criticize me!”When Mrs. Wilson mentioned ‘Miss’, Maxwell fe
