The night Miranda found the condom wrapper, she had lied, saying that she was unwell and slept in the guest bedroom.She had been afraid that if she spent another second in the master bedroom with Hansel, she wouldn't be able to choke back her vomit.That night had been very dark. The wind had been
Miranda was finally back!She was wearing Hansel's favorite sexy nightgown. Her intoxicating smell was as alluring as he remembered.This time, he wouldn't let go ever again!He fiercely flipped her over and pressed her beneath his body, kissing her furiously. "Mimi… Mimi…" he murmured.Finally, she
That night, while Hansel was working on the tasks that had piled up, Calvin called. "Hans, we haven't seen each other in a while. Shall we grab a drink?""Sure."Hansel walked out of the study. After changing his outfit and heading outside, he found Ingrid at the front door. Their eyes met, and both
Upon hearing the noise, Calvin went to welcome Hansel into the room.However, in the next moment, he saw Hansel… with Ingrid.Wait a minute!Calvin sucked in a breath."Hey, Cal," Hansel said calmly."Hans, you're here. Come sit…" He quickly poured Hansel a glass and served him some fruit.Later tha
"I know you're in there," Hansel said. "Can you please open the door? We need to talk. Miranda! Can you hear me?"There was no reply."Oh, so that's how it is, Miranda? You're not going to open up, huh? Do you think you can keep me out like this?"Hansel's tone started out meek and slowly became fla
As Winter spoke, she put on her sunglasses. Imitating Miranda, she took a sip of her coconut water. Then, she smiled, feeling content.Miranda crossed her slender legs and turned over. "I thought you were on a date."Winter's lips turned down in disdain. "That blonde guy was so muscular I thought he
The next morning, Hansel waited in the VIP lounge of the airport while casually scrolling through his social media.There was still half an hour until boarding time. Time seemed to pass too slowly for him. He just hoped his flight would depart as soon as possible.Suddenly, he stopped scrolling and
Hansel didn't sleep well last night and was already sleepy. Yawning, he looked up in time to see Ingrid taking a photo of them. Instantly, his expression turned grim, and he blocked the camera.Ingrid was stunned. "Dear, it's our first time going on an overseas trip. Don't you want to take a photo t
Out in the hallway, Miranda smiled sweetly and waved at Paul. "Good night, Paul."Paul lingered for a moment before asking, "That's it? Nothing else?""What do you mean?""That's not the impression you were giving me earlier," he muttered. "What did I do?" she asked, puzzled."You gave me a look… a
The table was filled with dishes that smelled and looked delicious. "Paul, your cooking has improved again," Mindy said after having a bite of steak. Lionel pointed at the plate of mashed potatoes and said, "This tastes just like how we do it back in Lumberville. I'm not exaggerating, but most loc
Even while he was busy in the kitchen, Paul didn't neglect Lionel and Mindy. He would occasionally step out to refill their water or steep a fresh pot of tea."Mr. and Mrs. Sutton, what time did you leave home? Was the journey tiring?" Paul asked. "We took a cab from home at around 7:00 am and reac
"Then whose gossip is interesting?" Miranda countered. Paul didn't miss a beat when he replied, "Ours, of course." The next second, he pulled Miranda onto his lap. He stood up from the couch and lifted her in his strong arms effortlessly, carrying her like she weighed nothing. "Oh!" Miranda let o
Miranda thought about it seriously for two seconds before replying, "I'm sorry, Paul. As you heard, my dad wants me to go home for Christmas."Besides, I already spent last year's holidays in Elgerson and didn't go back to Lumberville. I don't know how my dad managed to handle my grandparents back t
"I—" Miranda was about to respond when her phone suddenly rang. She glanced at the screen and turned to Paul with a smile. "Speak of the devil… Some people just appear the moment you mention them."She swiped on her phone to answer, "Hello, Dad?""Mimi, have you eaten yet?" Lionel's voice came thro
Miranda remarked, "You don't seem surprised, either."Paul answered, "The Grahams would never let their only heir be sent to prison. They would definitely find a way to get him out. Even Uncle Damian and Aunt Natalie know that.""Does Winter know?""She does. Uncle Damian said she took it well. She
Calvin was at a loss for words after listening to what Paul said. Still, he wanted to try one last time. "Dr. Jefferson, Zach really loves Winter. He only did it because he was afraid of losing her. His life will be ruined if this incident leaves him with a criminal record."Paul raised an eyebrow
Zach shouldn't have returned so soon. He was at least 20 minutes early compared to what they estimated. "It must be the alarm from the main door," Paul said. Zach must have received a security alert and turned back halfway. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made it back this fast.As the car pulled to a
