2022-12-21 08:00:55Her tongue continued to produce lie after lie, and she thought her mouth had become a lie factory by now. She was afraid that there would be a day when she wouldn't be able to differentiate between truth and lie anymore.
First, she told her mother that she would not be able to visit her in the hospital tonight because she had to work late at the convenience store when the truth was, she had never worked there.
Second, she told her boss that she wouldn't be able to work at night today because she had to be by her mother's side for one night, and that was why the boss had to reschedule her work for tonight, and she had to serve her customer during the day.
Thankfully, the customer wasn't someone with big demands, and he could easily agree to do it with Vivian during the day instead of the night.
Last night Vivian had told Alexa that she would be going to work late today, but when she thought about it again, she realized that she probably wouldn't be able to

The air conditioners in Ladder to Paradise had the word "DAHL" written on them.Her television at home had the word "DAHL" printed on it.And even her mother's hairdryer had the same word on it.In short, DAHL Electronics was indeed one of the biggest companies in the country, and it could also be said that they were number one in the electronics field.Vivian wasn't someone who knew much about business, but she had heard that DAHL Electronics had been around for nearly fifty years, and that was the reason why the company had managed to dominate the nation.No one would ever question the quality of their products, and it was also said that their after-sales service was also great. So, even her house was dominated by that brand, and now she was going to marry a man from that family?Suddenly, Vivian felt that her legs were boneless. She did hear from Tommy last night that she needed to marry a rich man, but the man didn't say that she should

'This bitch really wants to rob me, huh? She has asked me for a hundred thousand dollars and yet she still dares to ask for more? Does she think she is worth that much?' The woman, Lily Vester, was grinding her teeth as she tried to hold back her irritation, but she still smiled at the young woman sitting across from her in the living room.It was her son who invited the girl to their house today. A few days ago, she asked her son to find her daughter, but instead of reporting that he had finally found Elena, Tommy simply reported that he found a girl who looked a lot like Elena, and at that time, she just snapped at her son, saying that her son was probably just trying to find an excuse for his laziness when he couldn't find Elena.But then her son showed her a picture of a girl he took from the catalog in Ladder to Paradise, and Lily finally knew that her son didn't try to trick her this time.It was then that she suddenly came up with the idea of usi

Vivian could see how the woman called Lily looked at her with disdain as she took off her clothes to reveal her naked body. Of course, someone as 'clean' as Lily would feel disgusted when she saw how Vivian's body was covered with kiss marks. Vivian went straight to Haston City after she finished serving her customer, and that was why her body was still covered with countless love bites. Of course, Vivian could see the look of disgust on Lily's face, but she ignored that expression. Perhaps Lily looked like someone who dominated her because of her consent, but Vivian knew that it was she who held the woman in her grip even though she had not signed the contract. Hence, she didn't feel the need to care about how Lily looked at her with contempt. After all, the woman wasn't the first who gave her that kind of look. Just like what Lily had just said, the woman helped her get dressed though the hint of disgust on her face remained. She said that Vivian had to properly co

Two men, while the other one was a woman. The men wore expensive suits in black, while the woman wore a glamorous navy dress.Those people did walk towards their table, even Lily immediately got up from her seat while wearing a big smile on her face. “We finally meet again, Mr. Mrs. Dahl. Is it tiring to reach this floor from the first floor?” She asked without erasing the goofy smile on her face.At this, Vivian almost rolled her eyes. What's tiring about moving from the first floor to the tenth floor using the elevator? It wasn't like those three people needed to crawl to the tenth floor, right?"That's fine," the bespectacled old man unbuttoned his jacket before placing himself in one of the empty chairs at the table.It was indeed the cold reply Lily had just received as she was desperately trying to flatter the family that had just arrived at the restaurant, and she couldn't help but smile awkwardly while watching how the three people sat

Just like that? That fierce-looking man just accepted her as his life partner just like that?The man continued to stare at her for unknown reasons, but Vivian was certain that the reason behind those stares was not the silly thing called love. If she could describe it, then the man was window shopping, and she was the only object that managed to catch his eye. However, it was mere attraction, and there was no feeling in that pair of eyes.If it wasn't quite right to describe how the man looked at her, then Vivian would say that it looked like a sniper aiming at his target. Yes, the target was her, and the bullet would probably have gone right through her head in no time.“It seems our son has fallen in love at first sight,” the woman with long blonde hair wearing a navy dress who had been silent for a few moments finally joined in, and she even smiled at the man who had just said the decision.Both Steen and Stefan had stern faces, but the wo

That was crazy. Even if Steen Dahl clearly didn't like the idea Lily Vester presented him with, the man still didn't say anything, and that was why the two of them ended up in a hotel suite.It turned out that the Amets Hotel where they had a meeting tonight was owned by the younger brother of Stefan Dahl, and it was no wonder the family was highly respected by the hotel's employees. The hotel even provided the best menu for their dinner, and they even asked what song they would like to hear to accompany their dinner. In the end, it was Stefan who asked for a classic, and the two families seated at the same table began to eat dinner peacefully.Before dinner was over, Stefan even called one of the hotel clerks, telling him to prepare a suite for his son because his son would be spending the night at the hotel tonight. Of course, the clerk took the orders immediately, and in no time, the suite was ready for the young master of the Dahl family.Vivian was actually

Vivian only wash her face and her feet and didn't really take a shower tonight. Coming out of the bathroom, her slender body was still clad in the same dress she had been wearing since she was in the Vester's residence.While she was still in the bathroom, she realized that she couldn't take off her clothes no matter what if she didn't want to humiliate herself in front of someone who would be her husband.Huh? A husband? That word sounded like a joke to her ears, but she couldn't even laugh because that was a bitter reality for her.Whether she liked it or not, she would earn money from that man even if she had to marry that man, and that was why she couldn't show her flaws tonight.Of course, she had to keep her flaws under her dress because that man from a rich family would surely be terrified if he saw the disgusting marks on her body. So, Vivian was still fully clothed when she came out of the bathroom, and she could see how Steen was still in the same posi

Was that how Steen punished people who let their minds wander when they were in the middle of a conversation? Even if that person was a man, would Steen still punish him like that? Vivian couldn't help but think about that ridiculous thing all night, but luckily, Steen left her alone after he finished punishing her with his mouth. It was indeed a punishment because it really hurt her, and there was even a cut on her bottom lip because of what that man had done to her. It was only a penalty kiss, and Vivian felt no pleasure at all when their lips touched. However, she was still lucky because that strange man went to bed immediately after kissing her, and nothing happened to them the last night. The strange man didn't ask her to sleep in the same bed, and that was why Vivian could only sleep on the sofa without using a blanket. Maybe Steen's heart was made of steel, and that was why the guy didn't even bother turning off the air conditioner even though he knew there weren't any other

A name. It was not just a group of letters used to address someone so they would turn to the caller and not ignore the caller. A name had a deeper meaning than that. A name was used to identify a person, used to distinguish someone from other individuals. A name would always stick with a person from the time they were born until the day they last breathed, and even at their final resting place, their name would also be written or engraved to let everyone know that the body buried underground belonged to the owner of the name. A name was indeed an important part of one's life, and that was why one would not feel happy if someone called them by the wrong name. Perhaps that was also the reason why Vivian had returned to wearing a wedding dress today. It was still the same wedding dress she wore months ago when she officially became Steen's wife, but because she was using someone else's name then, she and Steen decided to have another wedding ceremony to announce to everyone that it was

Their next stop was the penthouse at the Golden Roof Apartments, and it might also be their last stop. Only three people entered the penthouse after Elena was sent to her family's residence. After Lily and her family were arrested by the police, the house was empty, and that's why Elena lived there temporarily. Yes, only temporarily because Elena planned to move after finding a suitable place to live. Vivian had actually invited her to move in with her and Sarah in the small house, but Elena rejected the idea, saying that she didn't want to disturb the two of them and that Sarah might be uncomfortable if she joined them to live in the cramped house. Vivian said that Sarah wouldn't feel that way because that woman also wanted to meet Elena and wanted to live with her too, but Elena still resisted the idea. In the end, Vivian only said that she would try to find a bigger house, and if that could happen, the three of them might be able to move in together.

Someone was standing in the middle of the mansion's stairs. With teary eyes, he looked at the people standing in the living room one by one. His eyes were not only filled with tears, but the two of them were also filled with fear and confusion. He looked lost and lonely even if he wasn't alone in the big building. Maybe the adults in the living room kept talking about Stanley before, but they probably forgot that the kid was also in the mansion the whole time, and they also weren't aware of the possibility that the innocent boy had heard everything from the second floor. But maybe Steen was aware of the possibility, but he simply didn't care at all. That was why he looked away from the boy before saying, "Let's go." Both words were aimed at Vivian and Elena, like how he had suggested the three of them leave the mansion immediately. But neither Vivian nor Elena moved from their positions even after hearing the order, and they both focused their

Steen somehow could not directly answer his father's question this time. He was still grinding his teeth to suppress his anger, but no words could come out of his mouth at this moment. Recalling the disgusting memory, he remembered how he did not find any used condoms in the hotel room, and it was easy to tell that he had done it without any protection the night before. He wasn't even sure if it was because he couldn't think straight when he did it or maybe it was Kate's intention, but he was sure there weren't any used condoms in the hotel room at the time. He wasn't stupid, and that was why he could see the possibility of her being pregnant after they had a such activity that night, and it was also the reason why he hated that kid called Stanley so much. Even if he didn't try to find evidence that Stanley was indeed his son, he could see the similarities the boy had with him, and it had the power to terrify him. Because of that, he had alway
I'm a Prostitute, Not a Substitute 300. THE DISGUSTING MEMORY
Kate had been dragged from the mansion by the police, and even the man named Peter had also been caught by the police. Hence, only four people were left in the living room after Marlon also left the place. There were only Steen, Stefan, Vivian, and Elena in the living room. Everyone still ignored the presence of plush sofas in the living room as they preferred to remain standing rather than sitting comfortably. They all even continued to stand like statues. Even Steen who previously looked the calmest of them, now looked shaken after hearing what Kate proudly said before being dragged away by the police. "I always knew that the child was not mine," Stefan muttered breaking the tense silence in the living room. “I always knew about it, but I didn't expect the child to be yours, Steen. How are you going to explain it to me? Do you like your stepmother? You have treated her coldly all along, but you even got her pregnant with your child. I didn't expect yo

“Recently, that bitch doesn't dare to touch her phone because her phone is haunted by my mother, right? Ah! Even her fear should be enough to tell that she was scared because she had done something to my mother in the past, but I know that such a thing wouldn't be enough to prove that she was indeed a criminal. That's why I focused on finding something on her phones that were ignored by her out of fear in the past week. On one of her cellphones, I found enough evidence to land her in jail.” When everyone was speechless, it was Steen who continued to speak. Turns out that was his real plan. He didn't plan to pressure Kate so she would kill herself just like his mother did years ago, but he just wanted her to ignore her cell phone so he would get a chance to touch it. Yesterday Kate left the mansion without her cell phone, and Steen took the opportunity to look for more evidence in the cell phone. Finally, he found what he was looking for in one of her cell phones.
I'm a Prostitute, Not a Substitute 298. KATE'S AFFAIR
"SHUT UP! DON'T TALK NONSENSE IN MY HOUSE!" Kate immediately shouted at Peter, but even her voice sounded unsteady as she looked nervous as hell. Her voice was shaking, her pupils were trembling, and even her breathing was ragged. All eyes suddenly fell on the blonde woman, and it was finally Stefan who opened his mouth to respond to the woman, "Are you sure what he said was just nonsense?" Stefan also looked surprised after hearing what Peter had just said, but he still had time to ask the woman that question. At this moment, the woman no longer glared at the kneeling man, and instead, she stiffly shifted her gaze to Stefan. Stefan was her husband, and he was known for his strict and assertive personality. Many people were afraid of him, even Kate was afraid of him before they got married years ago. But today she somehow looked scared again when she had to face the old man even if the man was her spouse. “D-don't listen to what that

Steen had revealed everything. He had disclosed how Vivian and Elena were actually part of a family living far away from Haston City, but Elena was kidnapped by Lily and her husband two decades ago. At that time, the twins' parents died in a car accident, and little Vivian was found by a couple after the incident, and she was raised by the couple into adulthood. Steen deliberately did not mention how Sarah had purposely taken Vivian as her daughter instead of returning the child to her relatives, nor did he mention the name of the family Vivian and Elena came from. He didn't think that the information was necessary, and that's why he kept it a secret. And maybe Stefan really didn't need that information, and the story Steen had just uncovered had shocked the old man enough. His pair of eyes widened as he looked at the twins, but he still didn't say anything as he still couldn't overcome his shock. Steen could see how his father was stunned by

It was Marlon who had just entered the mansion, but this time he was not alone. His hand was holding another person's arm, and that person's hands were tied with a rope behind his back. After arriving at the living room, Marlon forced the person to kneel in front of the five people. One person looked confident after seeing the person's appearance in the living room, while three other people looked shocked and confused, then one person looked scared as her eyes widened when she saw the person who had just arrived in the living room with Marlon. "So, he's the person, Marlon?" It was Steen who looked confident upon seeing the person's arrival in the living room, and although his question was directed at Marlon, his eyes were glued to the figure kneeling in front of him. “Yes, sir,” Marlon immediately answered his boss's question. “His name is Peter Ford, and he works in a bar in town. He's the one who posted that anonymous article about you, sir.”
