Titus’s arrival attracted everyone’s attention. He wore a suit Nancy had specifically designed for him. It was entirely black, but there was a small rose sewn on each side of his cufflinks. Since he was dressed in semi-formal attire, the top two buttons of his white dress shirt were unbuttoned, wh
Titus no longer cared about Magnus. He just wanted to swallow Carol whole, and he was especially rough when it came to sucking on the hickies on her neck. Carol could sense his fury, but she did not hate his kisses. On the contrary, she wanted him to continue. The marks Magnus left on her disguste
Titus nibbled at her lips, and indifference shone in his eyes. “There’s no point talking about why I get to keep my heart. Unfairness is rife in this world. If you desired fairness, you wouldn’t have married Kieran Abner for a mere twenty million dollars in the first place.“From the moment you marr
Carol knew exactly what Titus was implying. If he said he was not going to let her go so easily next time, he meant it. It was especially obvious now. There were a few times when she felt Titus about to lose control and go to home base with her. If not for his great self-control, Carol would have
“But Kieran doesn’t want a divorce.”“Hasn’t he always wanted a divorce? Why is he suddenly saying no when you finally want a divorce? He’s just making things hard for you, isn’t he?”Carol stood up from her chair and went to the floor-to-ceiling window to stare at the tallest skyscraper in Northval
Carol sat on the sofa calmly. “It’s fine. I’m going to start looking for a house tomorrow and won’t go back to Maple Residences. I’ve also handed in my resignation letter. I don’t care whether Kieran agrees to it or not, I’m not going back to work.”“You should have done so a long time ago! You’ve b
Even if he apologized, he would do it again in the future. Hence, since she had already decided to get a divorce, she would stay as far away from him as possible. What she did not expect was for Lily to call her. “Didn’t you want to get a divorce with Kieran? Stop hiding, then. Meet me. I’ll tell
Carol’s eyes were covered while she was being transported. When she was thrown into a room, she had no idea where she was. She did not know what drugs Lily put into the tea, but she could not summon any strength. She could only lay in bed like a doll while the men tied her wrists to the headboard a
Since then, the Fritzgerald family fell from grace, and the shock was so great that Robin died in prison. During the funeral, Aster stared at Robin’s photo on his tombstone and smiled. “See, Grandpa? I still managed to destroy the Fritzgerald family’s cage in this timeline.”The Fritzgerald Corpora
“I know that you’re trying to fool me into becoming your puppet again. Over the past decade, I worked hard for Fritzgerald Corporation. I did whatever you asked me to, but I won’t listen to you when it comes to marrying someone who will spend the rest of her days with me. If you really want a puppet
Sirius could not figure out what she meant and could only nod. Myka did not want to stay here any longer and left to look for Aster. He was at the door of the doctor’s office. By the looks of it, he had just come out. “Well? I’m fine, aren’t I? I told you I was.”Aster ruffled her hair affectionat
He took over the report from Myka’s hands and took a look. But it only made him angrier. “You’re pregnant?”Myka slapped her hand over her forehead. She did not even have the time to explain what had happened and could only say, “Look at the name.”Feeling skeptical, Sirius checked the name, only to
What she said made Aster so happy that he rushed over to Myka like a child and kissed her forehead gently. “Alright, sweetheart.”If she were not injured, he would have picked her up and twirled her around simply because he was too happy. After Aster bade her goodnight, he turned the lights off for
In her despair, she gave up on fighting back. Suddenly, they heard a gunshot from outside. The three men were shocked. Did they interrupt some trade between criminal organizations? If that was the case, they could not stay anymore. They had to leave. But soon after they stepped out, they retreated.
She reached the third floor. The two men were about to meet up with the man on the first floor. Myka quickly went to the second floor. She had to seize the chance to jump. Otherwise, when the three of them came up to look for her, she would have a hard time escaping. Myka looked out one of the wind
Those two men did not search quickly. She only heard them getting closer after more than one hour passed. They were right outside. They had even entered the apartment. Myka held her breath. Her heart raced. “There’s a closet here. She might be hiding inside.”“Are you blind? The drawers are small
Robin hung up. All he could think about was what Aster told him just now. He wanted familial love? What a joke! The Fritzgerald family had built a business empire. If they had let themselves be controlled by those useless emotions, their empire would have fallen to ruins a long time ago!He answere
