Myka’s smiling eyes stung Sirius’s heart. As he stared at Myka, he remembered all the sweet moments they shared as they danced around each other. How incredibly ironic. “Myka, have you never considered that I might accept your past? Why were you so sure that I would leave your side after I learned
“Myka, don’t change the topic. What exactly are you thinking? Astie has already agreed to let you give birth. He also promised to stop bothering you. I think he’s not lying to me. He’s really regretting his actions.”Myka took another spoonful of soup before she smacked her lips and put the spoon do
That night, Myka had a dream. In the dream, Aster grinned at her with a blood-covered face. “You’re not running away from me, Myka. You’re mine, and you’ll be mine even after you die!”Aster then seized her throat and squeezed hard, as if he wanted to kill her. A feeling of asphyxiation came. When
Myka intentionally said those things to anger Sirius. If he did not get sick of her, this was going to happen again. Myka got out of bed to pick up her sleeping gown from the floor. Right after she put it on, Sirius hugged her from behind. “I know that you’re saying that intentionally. I know bett
Aster made a compromise and said, “I can pretend that you never slept with Sirius last night. Let’s have a fresh start and not talk about the past again, okay?”Myka was about to start crying. She just thought that he was being ridiculous. “‘A fresh start’? Are we just playing house to you? Where’s
…When Malina received the electronic divorce agreement from Sirius, the baby bottle she was using to feed her son slipped from her hand and fell on the floor. Her son started bawling, and the nanny came in to start cooing at him. Malina’s hands trembled. She walked into the bathroom with her phon
Susan knew that Malina could not let go of her love for Sirius, but at this point, she really did not want to continue watching her daughter treat herself so poorly and ruin her own life. “Malina, I told you before that Sirius never loved you. Even if you continue staying married, it’s only going to
“Sirius…” Myka teared up. She felt as if something was stuck in her throat. When she was about to start crying again, Sirius wiped her tears away. “Crying counts too. I’m going to kiss you whenever you cry.”He kissed her again. This time, it was not a peck. He pushed his tongue into her mouth and
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
