Estelle, of course, knew her place. She had no other strengths other than having an uncle who happened to be the president. But that did not matter. The Fritzgerald family valued her precisely because her uncle was the president. “I don’t care how much you fool around outside, but don’t let me ge
Then, she saw the skincare products she often used in the past, along with some clothes and shoes. She would be lying if she said she was not touched. “Aren’t you going to thank me by calling me ‘honey’ or something?” Titus spread his arms to show that he wanted to hug her. Carol went over and thr
When she went to the hospital to get her body checked, Carol ran into Aquafina. Aquafina was five months pregnant with her second baby, and her belly was a little swollen. At the sight of Carol and Titus, she glared at them. While in the VIP lounge, Carol poured a cup of water for Aquafina. “Have
Carol knew that she was mentally unwell, but she did not want to admit it. In secret, she tried to use sleeping pills to help her sleep and thought that Titus would not notice it, but he did. When he said that he wanted a baby, she knew that he was trying to use a child to divert her attention. “I
Carol made lunch. She knew that Titus was not used to hiring housekeepers, so she decided to start cooking again and made a few dishes she was familiar with before putting them into a lunchbox. In order to give Titus a surprise, she even told Charlie and the others not to tell Rivas. When she arri
Titus sounded really indignant. He took out his tie from his pocket, tied up her hands, and did not let her say no.In the beginning, Carol was really reluctant to go along, but after thinking about what he said, she thought that what he said made sense as well. In order to get ready for pregnancy,
Myka lied. She would never dare to tell Carol that the man was Aster. After all, Aster was going to get married in a few days!“I was just satisfying my physical needs and never thought about going long-term with him. Don’t ask who he is. You don’t know him.”“Myka, you can’t keep going like this.”
She no longer hid her desires. When she wanted s*x, she called Aster. If he was busy, she went straight to his office. They did it in the office, lounge, on the sofa, in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, on his table, in the car, and in the bathroom. So long as she wanted it, she would seduce 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
