His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 115 Do You Want To Kill Frade?
I woke up immediately. The telephone is in my hand. I glanced at Liv in bed. She was still asleep. So I whispered on the phone, "I just woke up.""Who are you with?" The caller demanded."Liv, my good friend.""Come and see me, little rose," he said. "I have a present for you."I wanted to tell him that I didn't care about presents, and that it would be nice if he would let me sleep an extra hour. Looking at the empty cans on the floor, I can't remember how many beers we had last night. Maybe Liv and I had three rounds last night. Before leaving the room, I went to the bathroom to wash my face with water and then rinse my mouth with mouthwash. I didn't want to look too embarrassed when I saw Daley later.The door was unlocked and opened with a little push. There was a light in the sky and the room was dark. The curtains of the French windows were drawn to either side, and a shallow ray of sunlight fell on Daley. He was wearing a black suit with his back to me and his hands in his pock

"What else do you know?" Daley looked at me intently. "Who told you about my recruitment? Was it Frade?""Tell me, are you going to kill Frade?" I stared at him."Tell me, if you had to choose again, would you choose Frade or me?" He asked."Why do you care so much about that answer?""Because I love you." His voice softened, "I risked my life to bring back women who had been trafficked to pudding, and I have broken my rules over and over again because of you. I even went to Cartier headquarters to have a custom wedding ring made for you. I wanted to surprise you. But you hurt me.""I never meant to hurt you." I lowered my head in shame.“I want to give you the best of everything in the world,” Daley said, pulling a beautiful ring box from his pocket. He opened it to reveal a large sapphire ring. “I just want you to be happy.”"No, Daley," I said quickly, in case he was about to kneel down and propose. "I'm afraid I can't bear the weight of your love.""Because of Frade?" He looked sa

Mia picked up a white bathrobe from the sofa and put it on. Her hair looked wet. I guess they were just getting out of the shower when they heard the doorbell.I looked around the room. On the table were plates of caviar, black truffles, foie gras and toast. It looks as if the food has been tasted and thrown away on a plate. Next to it were several empty wine bottles and two goblets.Then I caught a glimpse of white powder on the tin foil on the coffee table, and a bad feeling came over me.Was Frade using heroin?“Honey,” Mia said to Frade in a sweet voice, “Can you go to the coffee shop and get a cup of coffee?”"Cappuccino?" Frade looked at her with doting eyes."Yes." Mia looked at him. "My tastes haven't changed, you know.""What about you?" Frade asked me with a wink. "What kind of coffee would you like?""No, thanks," I said coldly.Frade went into the bedroom to change into a casual outfit and Mia gave him a kiss before he left. I deliberately looked out the window until the d

"Do you decide?" Daley asked."Yes.""No regrets?""Never!"There was a two-second silence at the other end of the phone, and I almost held my breath. Is he hesitating? Will he refuse me?"Where are you?" He said.Then I told him where the hotel was."Wait for me."Less than 15 minutes after I hung up, a black Mercedes pulled up in front of me. The car door opened and Daley sat on the back seat and looked at me from the inside.He was surprised when I jumped into the car and threw myself into his arms. The car started slowly and I sat on his lap. My legs wrapped around his waist, and I pressed my lips to his mouth as he tried to speak. He flattered me, and my tongue went into his mouth. I sucked on his soft, sweet tongue, and his hand went into my shirt and stroked the skin of my back.The kiss was like a stick of dynamite. As soon as we touch it, it will explode. His touch aroused the primal desires of my body. It was then that I realized that my body wasn't just reacting to Frade.I

I left Daley's legs and sat down next to him. As I got dressed, Daley asked as he adjusted the buttons on his shirt."Now you can tell me, what made you change your mind? I won't forget why you left me.""Mia's back," I said coldly, leaning back in my chair."The b.itch is back?" Daley said sarcastically. "I thought she was rotting in the ground.""I don't know." I didn't want to think about that sad scene. "Anyway, she came back and slept with Frade.""So you decided to marry me to get back at him?" Daley quipped."You can refuse me.""You know I can't say no to you." He touched my cheek with his finger. "We'll be at the airport soon. If you change your mind now, it's not too late.""I won't go back to my word," I said firmly, though I knew I was acting out of spite.I looked out the window and saw the tarmac. The car stopped. Only then did the silent driver speak.“Sir, we've reached our destination.”"Thank you."Daley opened the door, and I got out of the car and saw a Gulfstream

He looked up at me affectionately with his golden eyes. He took one of my hands and said, “Eva, you know what? I was so excited and flustered when you promised to marry me. Once I fell into Hell, the darkness accompanied me. You are the only light in my life. You let me feel the beauty of the world, the fragrance of flowers, and the beating of the pulse again. You are the world's most pure and beautiful white rose. You are the only one that I want to accompany and protect in my life. Even if the sea runs dry, even if the mountain falls, my love for you will never change. I love you, my gorgeous rose.”“Oh, Daley.” I was touched by his sincere confession, and warm tears fell from my eyes. He lowered his head and kissed the back of my hand. I helped him up and hugged him tightly.“I love you too.” I said the words buried in my heart.At that moment, I realized that I also loved Daley. I just never realized how I felt about him. All I saw was Frade. I was chasing Frade so much that I nev

He took me outside the hotel and we got into a Mercedes-benz. The driver drove along Las Vegas Boulevard, where brilliant lights flickered at night.After about 20 minutes of driving, the bright neon lights of the city moved further and further away from us. On either side of the road is wilderness, and the car turned left into the Desolate Stone Road at a fork in the road.I could hear the tires grinding against the gravel, and the car shook slightly to a halt. There was a black car already parked in front of it, with two burly men standing in front of it.“Let's get off,” Daley said, looking ahead.When we got out of the car, a man in a tight black t-shirt and Daley looked at each other. He turned and went to the trunk of the car, and soon I saw a man with a collar coming up to us.The man's hands were tied behind his back, and the car lights shone on his face when he looked up. I saw that the man with scars on his face was Ron.“This is the special gift that I prepared for you,” Da

I lay in the tub on the hotel terrace when I returned. The warm water slowly brought my body temperature back to normal. I leaned against the edge of the tub and looked up at the sky illuminated by the twinkling shiny lights.Daley stepped into the bathtub naked, leaned over me. His usual calm voice lingered behind me.“Are you at peace now?”“Yes, I felt a kind of peace I had never experienced before.”I've been waiting a long time for my death list to be emptied, and my revenge is almost over now.“That gift from you is really special.” I looked at him. “Why are you doing this?”“Because your pain is my pain, your hatred is my hatred.” He kissed my shoulder. “That's how I love you.”“What do you want to know about me?”“I want to know what you like.” Daley looked at me affectionately. “I can take you to anywhere you like for our honeymoon.”“I haven't been to a lot of places.” Mikeal had limited my private life since I was a kid, especially after my mom died. I hardly ever travel. I

A week later, the trip to Mexico didn't go well. Mexicans were angry at Mickle's claims that the wall had been expanded. The Mexican president and Mickle met in secret for three hours. I don't know what they talked about.After the meeting, he got on a plane and left Mexico. But he left me behind, and I knew exactly what he was doing.I was not surprised to see Daley in front of me as the representative of Mexico. Instead, I had the urge to punch him, but I held back.During my stay in Mexico, Daley was responsible for receiving me as the Mexican representative. The night we met, he took me to a fancy restaurant in Mexico City.“I had no idea that the famous Daley was already a member of council.”I looked across at Daley. The last time we parted, he looked pale. But now, beneath his mask of calm lies a kind of ineffable pride.“Do you have to talk to me like that?” Daley smiled at me, “It's been a long time since we were alone together and I miss you so much. I think we should celebr
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 199 Farewell
“Why do you always have to decide before you tell me?” Frade asked, smoking hard on the couch. “Didn't I tell you to consult me before you made any decisions?”“Because this time there is no room for negotiation.” I stood in front of him, looking at him like that. My heart felt extremely painful. But I had to tell him about my decision. We have to face the truth eventually.“Mia was dead.”Frade's face froze for a few seconds. “She's dead?”“She escaped from the sanatorium, frantically searching for her father and questioning him as to why he had abandoned her. Mickle's bodyguard shot her for endangering the president. It happened right in front of me.”I have mixed feelings about Mia's death. Even though she was detestable, her death was like a razor blade slicing through my unsuspecting skin. It was instant, clear pain.Frade continued to smoke heavily.

His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 198 I Will Stay
I didn't expect Mickle to agree to meet with me as soon as I contacted him. But I had to go jogging with him, so I changed into a white sweatshirt and drove to his estate.We jogged side by side on a path near the estate, with two bodyguards following us. I can't remember the last time I ran in the morning. I was a little out of it at first, but after a while, I got my breath back.“Do you need a few minutes?” Mickle, who was wearing a black, short-sleeved tracksuit, turned to me. “Looks like you haven't exercised in a while.”“I'm fine,” I said.“I'll wait for you at the lake ahead,” he said as he continued to run.By the time I got to the lake, he was resting. A burly bodyguard offered him water, but Mickle gave it to me.“You need water,” he says.“Thank you.” I opened the bottle cap and took a sip. The bodyguard somehow took out another bottle of water and handed it to him.“It's a rare day for you to call me,” Mickle said, his face flushed but his tone calm. Judging from his stro

According to Vickie's will, her body will be transported back to Italy for burial. So Frade decided to hold a simple farewell ceremony for Vickie in the manor. After the ceremony, he would be in charge of sending Vickie's body back home with Mark.Vickie was right that no Sicilian would refuse the dying wish to return home. This time, they offered to open their arms to the Logan family to show their deepest sorrow.The place of the farewell ceremony was chosen in the hall of the manor, and all the participants were dressed in black as a sign of mourning. Black-and-white photographs of Vickie's life were placed in the centre of the hall. As her body was temporarily placed in the hospital morgue, guests had to mourn over her picture in silence.Each of the guests held a white chrysanthemum in their hands and placed it in front of the tablet. In the photo, she looked at everyone with a smile on her face, her eyes looking at everything indifferently.Frade greets guests who have come to p
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 196 Vickie is Dead
In the room, Vickie is lying on her bed, a private nurse holding a clear plastic tube attached to a ventilator up her nose. Since a trip to Italy, Vickie has grown weaker. Mark told me that she was taken home in an ambulance from a private hospital after she landed.“Why don't you take her to the hospital?” I asked in a low voice.“She's determined to go home,” Mark said. “No one can change her mind, and you know it.”“The patient needs to rest. Please leave the room,” the middle-aged brown-haired nurse said politely.Mark and I left the room just as Frade and Vickie's doctor came out of the other room. That was the room where they had been discussing Vickie's condition, and Frade's sullen face didn't look good.It's terrible.“Mark, please help me get Dr. Hans out of here.” Frade's voice was hoarse and tired, and the stubble on his face seemed to have grown overnight, making him look even gloomier.“Are you all right, darling?” I stroked his cheek and looked at the man in front of me
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 195 Asking For Help
A middle-aged woman in a plain grey T-shirt and light blue jeans sat on the living room sofa, her hands on her closed knees, her eyes downcast. The coffee in front of her was steaming, and it was obvious that she hadn't touched it.“Hey!” I whispered. “I'm Eva.”“Hi!” The woman stood up at once. She looked at me a little stiffly. “My name is Joe. I'm a friend of Joan's. We're all in the same union.”“How did you find me?” I motioned for her to sit down.“Joan gave me your number,” said Joe, “And we found your place. I'm sorry to bother you so late. Joan needs your help.”“You didn't come alone?” I asked curiously.“I have another colleague with me,” Joe said truthfully. “He's waiting for me outside.”“Is he here to ensure your safety?” I looked at her. “Since your friend is worried about your safety, why are you looking for me? So, what's the matter?”“We just...” Joe looked down sheepishly. “Just in case. But Joan says you're a trustworthy person. You're not like your father.”“I hel
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 194 Losing Leverage
During my stay in the hospital, I received many greeting cards and gifts from strangers. They piled gifts for the baby in front of the hospital or at the nurses' station, and a few fanatical fans even pretended to be nurses sneaking into the ward to see the baby. Fortunately, the fanatics were spotted by the doctor on duty and called the police, who quickly took them away.To prevent this from happening, Frade picked me and my baby up from the hospital in the middle of the night and took us back to the manor. Frade also put guards around the manor to keep out outsiders, leaving Mark in charge of all security, and Liv came to accompany me.Frade was on the move for us to leave the United States. This time he didn't entrust anyone but himself. He didn't tell me that he had met with those people. But from his tired face after each return, I can guess that our departure would become a distant dream.When Vickie learned of Frade's plan, she decided to go to Italy herself, because most of t
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 193 the Baby and the President
“What does a newborn baby get him?” I stared at Ian. “He's already president.”“The president just wants to show his concern for you,” Ian explained patiently. “This baby is his granddaughter. You're family.”“What an official statement,” I said. “Just this once. I need at least three months off for the rest of the year. During that time, neither I nor my baby could be seen in any media.”“Deal,” Ian readily agreed.“I'll give you some time to get ready,” Ian said. “I'll let you know when the president is arriving at the hospital.”After Ian leaves, Frade gently places the baby in her own crib, where she falls fast asleep without crying or fussing. Frade walks to the bedside, his eyes brimming with anger. I knew he was unhappy with my decision, and as I prepared for his wrath, he just lowered his voice and said, “Why did you agree to his request?”“Because I can't say no.” I looked at him. “Ian's right. Mickle is the baby's grandfather. I have no reason to say no to him visiting his g
His Perfect Wife Strikes Back 192 The Birth Of The Baby
“Do you have to go to the inauguration?” Frade asked as he peeled the apple. “The doctor told me your due date is coming up.”The skin he cut off with a knife was attached to the flesh of the apple, and less than two-thirds of the whole apple was left in his hand. I stared at the silver knife in his hand and asked, “Do you have a problem with apples?”“I hope this knife didn't cut apples, but...”“Stop,” I reminded him. “Watch your mouth.”“I don't want you to go to a crowded place,” Frade said, handing me a peeled apple. “In that case, all eyes are on the new president. If you're not feeling well or...”“Ian will have a nurse with me,” I said. “Besides, I only promised to be at the inauguration, and as soon as it's over, I'll be home.”“I'm going with you,” Frade said, “Or I won't trust you.”“Sure,” I readily agreed. “I'll tell Ian and get him to set you up.”“All I have to do is stand next to you.” Frade walked to the bed and brushed my cheek, then put a hand on my belly.“She's mo
