Sonia did not expect to win twelve times in a row.

"You're cheating!" The way Daniel slurred made him sound drunk.

"What? You're the one throwing the dice. How can I be the one cheating? Just admit it, you didn't think I was going to win. Well, that's how gambling works!" Sonia giggled. She had never had any luck in gambling all her life, as such, she didn't expect her luck to be so good today.

However, Daniel wasn't convinced. "Fine! Again!" He was determined to make a comeback.

Sonia's thick eyelashes flickered open. "Okay! This is the last one. The big one! I have already lost everything today! So why the hell not. Marriage isn't a big deal! I can get married whenever I want. How about this? If I win again, you will have to marry me!"

"Deal!"

The only thought in Daniel's mind was to win this game. Besides, he wasn't used to losing to anybody.

"Great! I like you!" Finishing her words, she pushed the cup closer to him. "It's your turn. I'm guessing it's a small number."

"I'll bet on big numbers!" Daniel shook the cup before opening it.

One, two, three—small!

Sonia could not help bursting into laughter as she was quite pleased with herself. Never before had she felt so satisfied in all her twenty-one years on this planet.

Daniel, on the other hand, was at a loss. He had never been so displeased in all his twenty-six years on this planet.

It was time to honor the bet!

He grabbed her hand and said, "Let's get our IDs and then go to the Civil Affairs Bureau!"

(Fast forward to the present day....)

The bright sunshine fell on the floor through the mullioned window.

There was a complete silence in the room, apart from the sound of heavy and rapid breathing.

The two people stood in front of the window silently, staring at each other blankly. They could not remember how they got to to the Civil Affairs Bureau, how they registered their names, and how they even made it all the way to the bridal chamber. However, it was certain that the red booklets were real and legit.

In the eyes of the law, they were legally a couple.

Daniel was considering how to end this absurd marriage. He had a lot of experience on how to reject a woman, but he had never divorced someone before.

However, he decided that no matter what condition Sonia would propose, as long as it was not too far from the truth, he would try his best to satisfy it. After all, from the looks of it, there was no use hiding the fact that they had slept together. And what's more…

The moment he looked at the blood on the sheet, Sonia blushed and quickly ran to the bed to pull the blanket to cover it.

The reason why she hadn't slept with any man for so many years was that she wanted James to be her first man. Now, she had lost both him and her virginity.

Life could be so unpredictably cruel. She had fallen from heaven to hell in just one night.

"Well, let's go to the Civil Affairs Bureau and get a divorce now," she said, stifling all the pain in her heart.

There was no use crying over spilled milk. It was better to nip that little romance in the bud.

Daniel was shocked as he didn't expect her to be so straightforward. There were no conditions, no requirements and no blackmails. He was starting to admire her!

"It's half past ten now. The Civil Affairs Bureau will be closed at twelve o'clock. There is only an hour and a half left! We have to take a taxi to get there on time. We can split the fare," Sonia spoke in a straightforward way and a rare gentle light flashed across Daniel's face.

They came out of the elevator and walked side by side. But it was not easy for Sonia, as she felt a dull pain in her legs. Even though her recollection of the night was still unclear, she could imagine how aggressive Daniel must have been in bed.

He sensed her pain and slowed down his pace.

Just as they arrived at the gate of the community, they saw Fabian coming out from her BMW. She was here to pick a bone with Sonia. Since James was there yesterday, she didn't have a chance to tear her apart. Today, she had come for some unfinished business.

    Sonia knew that the conflict between Fabian and her was about to escalate. Knowing this, she asked Daniel to wait before approaching her."I heard everything you said that day." Fabian sneered. "James loves me. You don't even know half of what he does to me. In fact, he proposed to me within a few days since we've been together. In fact, he even said how I had so many admires that he was afraid that someone else would take me away."Sonia snorted. Unlike Fabian, she had more important things to get to, and she didn't want to waste her entire day by arguing with her. "You're thinking too much. Yesterday was April Fool's. I was only kidding.""Stop pretending!" she snarled. "I know you love him. Yesterday, he was so afraid that I'll mistrust him that he even said that he'll never fall in love with someone like you. You're like a mouse who has just crawled out of the trash bin. He's disgusted to be linked to someone like you. In fact, he even asked me to tell you t

    "Daniel, thank you for helping me just now. Well, can we put off the procedures until after the engagement party tomorrow is finished?""It depends on you." He shrugged. It didn't really matter if it was delayed for a day."Thank you." Sonia finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had to do everything to save her dignity tomorrow.With that, she invited him to have lunch with her.When they walked into the restaurant next to the community, She ordered the cheapest thing on the menu—sour noodles and braised soy bean curds. Then, she went Dutch and paid for her own bill."Let me pay." Daniel motioned to take out his wallet, but Sonia, who didn't seem to hear him, just handed the money to him.After taking her seat, she smiled and said, "We met by chance, and after this awkward marriage, we won't meet each other ever again. We should just pay for ourselves."Daniel nodded in approval to her words.Not long after that, the wai

    His voice was low and it obviously hinted flirtation. For a second, she stood stunned. But slowly, his words began to sink in. She clearly understood what he was implying. And as a consequence, her face blushed crimson red. "Don't mention it. I have forgotten it," she said, trying to maintain her composure.Daniel's black eyes blinked, unable to believe she had forgotten it.He remembered everything, clear as day! Every second, the scene played in his mind.He woke up feeling hazy today. At first, his head felt unusually unclear, and he was unable to remember a thing! But soon, it began to fill up. Missing pieces of yesterday, came to his mind, one by one. He was a neat freak. No woman could touch him even if he was drunk. But when she was around, the defensive system seemed to be invaded by virus, breaking down instantly. To start with, she wasn't like any other woman he had come across. She was both beautiful and pure. Even her smell was intoxicating. At

    Sonia's eyes started to become misty as she turned away, shaking away her thoughts.Daniel slid his thumb down her chin. "Look at me," he said softly. He didn't want her to feel wronged. In fact, that's the last thing he wanted her to feel. He wanted her to feel as if she was the only one in the world for him.Hearing that, Sonia sniffled and gazed up at him innocently. "What's so attractive about you?" she murmured."I'm better looking than him," he snorted. His dark eyes glinted under the dim light."You wish." She barked out a laugh, but before she could say anything else, he leaned over and kissed her. His kiss was like a shock of electricity. She trembled against his touch as she leaned closer into his arms.Her face reddened. She didn't expect that the cold man would have such an arrogant side. He even dared to kiss her in public!Since Daniel was now her boyfriend, she couldn't reject his hold, but she definitely wasn't going to let go

    Taking a deep breath, Sonia turned around slowly and said, "If you're so sure of yourself, let's take a bet!""Okay!" Fabian smiled complacently. She had been competing with Sonia for such a long time. She knew her so well that she could easily predict her moves. Sonia was obviously inferior to her. She was like a stupid bug whom she could bait and trap easily at will. Right now, she swallowed her trick hook, line and sinker. "Today is April 3. If you don't break up with that man on June 3, you win the game. But you would lose the game if you two break up before the agreed date. As punishment, the loser would have to wear a bikini and dance in the Century Square!""Okay!" Sonia agreed without hesitation. She then took her cellphone out of her pocket and asked Fabian to repeat the conditions of the bet. The recording would serve as the proof of their bet, in case she planned to back out when she lost. "You just wait and see how I will punish you!" She sneered as s

    "Go ahead." Thinking of this, Sonia sighed in relief. She would do anything as long as his list of requests weren't asking too much of her."First, no affairs. You don't cheat on me. Second, you'll have to take care of me," he said seriously as his lips straightened into a thin line.How dare he? The first condition didn't even make any sense! The second one was that he obviously intended to treat her like a slave. As they say, if one handed you lemons, you can just go and make lemonade. She shook her head at the thought.But as long as she could win the bet against Fabian, then she could bear all of it. After all, it was only for two months."Fine, but you should also behave yourself. Don't take advantage of me," she warned him."I've seen every part of your body, and there is absolutely no part that I haven't touched. What else can I take advantage of?" he teased.Sonia flushed, wishing that the ground beneath her could swallow

    She quickly picked up the bath towel and wrapped it around herself. Her face was tomato red. She looked like a deer caught in the headlights. His eyes lit up almost immediately, looking like a kid whose Christmas present got in early. In the blink of an eye, he stood in front of her. She was so scared that she completely forgot to run away. She bowed her head and stepped back, wanting nothing more than to keep a safe distance from him.However, every time she stepped back, he took another step forward. They continued doing this till he had her backed up in a corner."What– what are you doing?" she stuttered out, clutching her bath towel.Daniel's strong arms blocked her from going left and right, locking her beneath him. He leaned in so close that she could almost hear his heart beating in his chest. "Did you do that on purpose?" he whispered, his breath fanning across her nose. His voice was hoarse and raspy as if he had just gone days without a cup of wa

    It was late at night, and the weather shifted around them. Dark clouds were gathering in the skies, and soon enough, thunder blasted across the city.In her room, small night lights emitted a dim light. However, Sonia couldn't help but shift and turn under the covers of her bed.Ever since she was a kid, she had suffered from claustrophobia. She made sure to have night lights plugged around her room to help ease her anxiety.Even then, she still couldn't fall asleep as her mind drifted towards James.Although he was going to get married, she still liked him. This love had lasted for more than five years, and she still couldn't find it in herself to get over him.If the girl he intended to marry wasn't the one she hated, then maybe she would have already moved on and have given all her heartfelt wishes. Seeing as he had chosen Fabian, it pissed her off to no end.She groaned, wanting nothing more but to claw her face.A fierce wi

    Mary was exasperated at his words. Her face turned livid. "Walt, this is Daniel's business. Don't get involved. If you like children, you should have one with Laura as soon as possible." The corners of Walt's mouth twitched slightly. That was his child. How could he not care? "Mommy, Dan is my brother, and Sonia is my sister-in-law. I should care about them." Looking at him gratefully, Sonia said, "Thank you, brother. But it doesn't matter. If Mommy insists, we can do the paternity test." "Don't let mommy affect you. Let's talk about it after the baby is born," Walt tried to comfort her. "No one can affect us," Daniel said coldly. He was getting more and more confused about Mary. Now she seemed to only consider her own feelings and interests, ignoring everything else. Mary seemed to be stung by a bee, and the corners of her mouth tilted to one side. It seemed that Daniel had abandoned his mother and stood on his wife's side again. "Dan, I'm doing this for your own good

    Walt punched the wall angrily. "He just wants to take the opportunity to kill my child. I won't let him succeed. I'll take her and the child away!" "Don't be impulsive. If you screw it up, you will not only fail to save the child, but also hurt yourself." "I don't care." Walt almost lost control. He just wanted to send her to the hospital and take away Sonia. "Leave it to Willi. I believe he will find a way. You have to calm down and never act rashly, understand? " Leila warned him. She decided to watch him twenty-four hours in case he ran into the hospital on impulse. The date of Sonia's operation was set on Friday. She posted this news on micro-blog, hoping that her friends could pray for her unborn baby together. In the morning, as soon as she opened her eyes, a doctor came. "Mr. Daniel, I'm going to take your wife to have a B Ultrasound examination before the operation." Daniel nodded, helped Sonia sit on the wheelchair, and followed the doctor to the B Ultrasound

    As soon as he entered the villa, the Butler rushed to him. "Mr. Raymond, you finally came back. Madam had a high fever and didn't want to go to the hospital. She didn't allow me to call you either. I'm so worried about her." Daniel ran upstairs in a hurry. Leila was lying on the bed. Her face was red and seemed to be burning. He touched her forehead, which was very hot. "You must have caught a cold in the lake yesterday. Let me send you to the hospital." In a daze, Leila shook her head and said, "No, thank you, Dan. I'm fine. I just need to have a rest." "You have a high fever now. You must go to the hospital." As he spoke, Daniel held her up, let the housekeeper put a blanket over her, and then went out. In the hospital, after checking Leila's blood, the doctor found that her blood picture was abnormal and suggested her to stay in hospital for observation. So Daniel registered for her and let her live in a VIP ward. After the detailed blood analysis report at the medica

    "The entertainment circle is a mess. This is so terrible." Sonia made a face. "You are just a passersby. You will return to your fashion circle after finishing the shoot." Daniel stroked her nose with a teasing smile. "I'm worried about Eva. She's straightforward and doesn't have any tricks. Probably she won't notice was someone was plotting against her." Sonia sighed. "Don't worry. I have arranged Demi to be her agent. She is very experienced. I'm sure she will take good care of Eva." Daniel patted her on the shoulder. Demi was a well-known agent of same fame as Riley, who made many stars popular and was very good at doing things. Everybody in the entertainment circle respected her. Hearing that Daniel had let Demi take care of Eva, Sonia felt much more relieved. The scene which was shot on the next day needed to be computer synthesis, so they had almost done it in the studio. The night before yesterday, Jim asked the staff to get the stage prop ready. Eva would have to

    It was the first time that she had been lifted on wire. With excitement and freshness, she flew up and down in the air of a few meters, like a fairy. There was not even a moment when the eyes of Daniel were looking away from her. On the one hand, her elegant and fairy like posture fascinated him, and on the other hand, he wanted to ensure her safety. Just as she was fighting with the Demon Warlord, the lifted arm suddenly took a turn, and the steel wire on the wire machine slipped out of its track. The people in the air almost fell straight. Helplessness and fear overwhelmed her. As she fell, Sonia closed her eyes in despair, thinking that she would be smashed to pieces by the accident. However, after a long time, the expected fierce collision did not come. The floor was soft and not hard at all, and her body did not hurt. But she didn't dare to open her eyes. Her heart was still pounding in extreme fear until she heard an anxious voice, "You little fool, are you all right

    "Anyway, don't make our marriage a condition in the future, okay?" Daniel flicked her forehead as a punishment. She frowned and looked at his serious face, as if their marriage was holy and inviolable. It was just a cooperation, but they had to be covered with a layer of gorgeous gauze. Wasn't it hypocritical? "Icy guy, the reason why you agreed to help me and refused to divorce me was because you wanted me to come to Dragon City to stop your marriage with Valery, isn't it?" She was about to tear up this piece of cloth. "Do you still think so?" He frowned slightly. "Is there any change?" She sneered. He lowered his head and sighed, his breath drifting in the sea breeze. "I admit that I had this idea at the beginning, but later I had another one." "What idea?" She pouted. "Let you be my real wife." He said solemnly and frankly. That's because you can't marry Leila. You take me as a substitute by the way! She thought to herself. "So you forced me to stay with you no ma

    After sitting at the bar counter, Sonia ordered a cup of long island ice tea. Daniel frowned slightly. Because only people who was disappointed with love would drink that. This was what she always ordered on that fool's day. Now that James had a new girl to serve, was she feeling uncomfortable? "This wine is not for you." He said gloomily, and exchanged a glass of zero degree cocktail named rainbow for her. "It is just a cup of wine. Not a person. What is in it not fitting for me?" She sneered. "Long island ice tea is the most famous wine for being lovelorn. Are you lovelorn?" His voice was like the rainstorm around the waves. She understood what he meant. His desire of control and possessiveness came to naught again. She couldn't let him hurt James again because of her unintentional move. "Is it appropriate to ask your wife about that?" She asked. "Well, I'm sorry that I made a slip of the tongue. I'm such a good guy. My wife must be good too." He curled his lips into a fai

    Lying on the lounge chair at the terrace, Sonia seemed to have just won a battle, with unprecedented happiness on her face. Daniel came in with a medicine bottle in his hand. "Take this later." Finally, he bought her the medicine. She took it over smilingly, with complete incomprehensible words on it. It must have been bought from abroad. "Thank you, freezing guy." She smiled, not noticing the hidden cunning in his eyes. "Take only one piece every day. Don't eat too much." She pouted and opened the bottle and took one immediately. Sweet? No way. Her husband was so strong, and the birth control pills were also as delicious as candy. No wonder he asked her not to eat too much. "Honey, take your medicine. Are you relieved now?" He smirked. She took a deep breath again, and it was too late to escape. The storm of 'mistresses' had just subsided, and before she could breathe a sigh of relief, the man's first love showed up. It turned out that at her 25th birt

    "Then you know if you are happy or not, right?" He lifted her chin and forced her to look at him. "Tell me the truth, when you were with me, you had never been a little happy?" After taking a glance at him, she looked away. His aggressiveness made her feel very oppressed. "Well, when you were still a poor hobo, we were happy in the small cabin." She nodded her head honestly and then turned the tone. "But now, there is nothing but trouble that can't see the end of trouble." Even if there was temporary happiness, it was like fireworks, quickly swallowed up by endless darkness. "If I am still a hobo, will you fall in love with me?" He asked in a low voice. Anyway, he felt a little comforted. She kept silent for a while, and answered in a low voice, "I don't know, maybe yes, maybe not." After a pause, she continued, "But certainly not someone as you now." "Am I now worse than a jobless vagabond?" He raised his eyebrows. There were so many women admiring him, but they did not onl
