Erin looked at Eugene, the playboy of the century. She couldn't help but sigh. He seemed to have fooled around with every woman in his circle of friends. Among the women she knew were Holly and her cousin, May.He was Holly's ex-husband.On the other hand, May almost got married to him, and she even suffered a miscarriage. Not to mention Lucille's friend, as well as Jazzlyn's cousin. Erin felt her head throbbing in pain and wanted to leave quickly. Just looking at Eugene's face made her feel extremely disgusted. She felt repulsed, yet Eugene saw her and deliberately greeted her. "Erin! What a coincidence …" But she ignored him, wearing a cold expression as she walked away. Looking at Erin's hot body, his eyes were filled with lust. His lips curved slightly and whispered in disbelief, "Amazing. She's had three children, but she still looks as pure as a virgin …" Eugene gulped. His heart itched at the thought of never being able to have a taste of Erin. Sophie noticed
As Erin steadied herself, she immediately pushed Levi away.She fixed her dark gaze on him and questioned coldly, "Mr. Levi, do you find this amusing?" "What do you mean? I just helped you, didn't I?" Levi retorted. There was still a hint of a smile at the corner of his lips. "Help me? What was the meaning behind tripping me just now?" Erin demanded.Levi's eyes dimmed slightly. He was surprised that she figured it out. It seemed that she was quite sharp. "I think you've misunderstood me," said Levi as he attempted to deny his intentions. Seeing his feigned innocent expression, Erin couldn't be bothered to say more. If it weren't for the concern of exposing her true identity while investigating the case, she would have loved to give him a piece of her mind. "Fine, consider it a misunderstanding. I have other things to do. You can wait for the costume assistant to help you change into your costume," Erin said."You're just going to leave like this?" asked Levi.Erin d
An hour later, the director resumed the filming. Although the female lead, Yvette, had been hospitalized, the other cast members could film their scenes without much disruption.Ivy came in as Yvette's substitute for some scenes with long shots and back shots. She and Sophie proceeded to act out their scenes.At the same time, Erin made up an excuse to leave the filming set, but she was actually going to visit Yvette at the hospital.Before that, she changed into fresh clothes at the hotel and removed the realistic mask from her face. Then, she had Winona stay with the filming crew to look out for any suspicious people.While driving to the hospital, Erin found herself thinking about the familiar eyes of Yvette's rescuer. She thought that she might have recognized him from somewhere, but she couldn't put a finger on it yet.Indeed, it did not occur to Erin that he was Irving Miles. He went around with a new face after a highly risky prison break.40 minutes later, Erin arrived at
Erin was shocked to see Cherry appearing in Yvette's room. "Mom, are you back from traveling?""Yeah. I've been back for a few days," replied Cherry, who wore an elaborate outfit and had put on makeup and jewelry.Erin praised Cherry for the changes, "Mom, you look great! Looks like we'll have to get you to travel abroad more."Cherry merely scoffed. "Is there something wrong with your eyes, Erin? How could I possibly look great when your sister's hospitalized?"Meanwhile, Yvette sat indifferently in the bed, as though she did not notice Cherry's presence.Erin smiled, explaining, "That's not what I meant, Mom. I kind of miss you after not seeing you for some time."Cherry quietly approached Yvette and sat by the bed. Holding Yvette's hands, she said with concern, "Yvette, how's your injury? Is there a concussion?"Yvette replied, unbothered, "It's nothing serious. The doctor wanted me hospitalized for a week.""Oh, that's good news. Yvette, you have to take good care of yourse
Erin stared at the sickly Sean. His oxygen mask worried her, and he seemed to be gravely ill.She wandered over and confronted him with conflicted feelings, "Sean Dunn, why did you lie to us?"He grinned. "You wouldn't have come here alone if I didn't lie to you."She faltered. "What did you just say?"Before he could reply, she blacked out and collapsed toward the bed. When Hannah entered the room, she wore the same oxygen mask that prevented her from taking in the air in the bedroom.It appeared the air had been permeated with anesthetic gases from the moment Erin entered.Hannah went up to the bed and reported, "Tad, Maya has fainted in the living room. Do I kill her?""You don't have to. She is the perfect witness." The man who spoke was not Sean Dunn.He turned out to be Tad Griffin in a realistic mask—the traitor of the Thousand Faces Clan! Meanwhile, the woman who played Hannah was his adoptive daughter Greta Griffin.Tad instructed, "Greta, leave Erin's phone behind."
Shortly after, Chandler rushed to the living room. When he saw Maya unconscious, he immediately instructed Hans, "Call the ambulance.""Yes, Mr. Frost," replied Hans.While Hans called for an ambulance, Chandler reached out to Paulo to inform him about Maya's condition. As they waited for the ambulance to arrive, Chandler took the chance to scour for clues in the villa. However, he returned empty-handed because Tad and Greta had been thorough.An hour later, Maya finally regained consciousness in the hospital. Upon waking up, she found Paulo by her bed and muttered weakly, "Paulo, why am I at the hospital?""Maya, how do you feel? The doctor said you fainted after inhaling too much anesthetic gas," Paulo explained."Anesthetic gas?" Maya appeared perplexed.Chandler walked up to them and inquired, "Maya, was Erin at Sean's villa?"She replied, "Yes. Hannah called Erin over! I was in the living room at that time.""What about Sean?" he asked again."Sean …" The thought of Sea
Erin decided to pretend she was still unconscious so that she could check on Sean and Hannah. Two subordinates of Tad carried her to the basement. Greta herself took off the realistic mask and followed suit.When they arrived at the basement, Sean happened to regain consciousness. His heart sank when he saw the men tossing Erin to a corner and even chained her up by the ankle. He was sure that Erin had been abducted because of him.Greta directed the men, "You two are on shift tonight. Keep a close eye on them!""Don't worry, Ms. Griffin," they said."I'm warning you now—don't do anything funny to that woman. She must remain unharmed. Got it?" she instructed again.The men watched as Greta pointed at Erin. They nodded, but one of them chuckled and asked, "Ms. Griffin, we're bored out of our minds after a few days at this place. How about that woman?"The man referred to Hannah, who remained unconscious."Look at yourselves! Are you blinded by lust after just a few days without s
At 3:00 am, a few men entered the basement. Erin pretended to pass out on the ground, hiding the ankle shackle underneath her pants to make it appear as though she was chained up.Meanwhile, Sean and Hannah sat on the ground, their backs against the wall. Hannah regained consciousness two hours ago and was updated on the plan."Wow, looks like the two of you are still up! Just perfect to keep us entertained …" The man in the lead descended the stairs with a lewd smile on his face.There were four of them. One of them cast a glance at Erin, smiling. "There's another one here!""Are you fucking dumb? Didn't we tell you not to lay a finger on that woman just now? You don't want to flirt with death," the others scolded."Right. Ms. Griffin warned us not to hurt that woman," the man agreed."That's a pity as there are four of us here.""What's the rush? Even if you have half an hour to yourself, you won't last that long," a stocky man teased."Big Sam, how dare you laugh at me? What
Erin chuckled lightly as she said, "Enny would have married and fallen in love with another man sooner or later. "If that man is Paulo, I would be more than willing. Enny will be very happy in her life, and I'm at ease entrusting her to Paulo. And with Paulo being so wealthy, I don't have to worry about anyone coveting Enny's status or her family's power.""You make a good point!" Jill agreed."Jill, if your wedding with Ryder happens around the same time as Enny's, I'm afraid I won't have the energy to help you," Erin said worriedly."No worries, I don't want a wedding ceremony. Ryder and I just need to register our marriage. We've been living together for ten years anyway," Jill said.Erin nodded. "Yeah, that's fine. Weddings are quite tiring anyway, whether you have one or not."After chatting for a while, Jill heard Ryder's footsteps and said quickly, "Let's talk next time. He's coming in." …At 10:00 pm that day, Erin visited Chandler's office at his company.However, h
Ryder turned around with skepticism etched across his face. "What could possibly be wrong? Look at how anxious you are."As she leaned against the doorway, Jill held her phone aloft. There was a challenging glint in her eyes. "If you can remain that calm after hearing this news, I'll play your game with you later.""Really?" Ryder raised an eyebrow, his tone filled with."Forget it if you don't trust me." She pretended to turn away.In a swift motion, Ryder closed the distance between them."I believe you. Now, tell me," Ryder said."Enny and Paulo have settled things," Jill announced with a smirk playing on her lips."Damn! Who told you?" Ryder's curiosity peaked.Jill waved her phone triumphantly. "This is exclusive insider information! Erin personally sent a WhatsApp message, see for yourself!"Ryder snatched the phone, his eyes scanning the message rapidly.The message read, "Enny was two months pregnant with Paulo's child, and the couple had visited Paulo's parents. Whil
Cyril looked at Paulo's departing figure and sighed. "Master is so good-looking. That's why Ms. Frost has been chasing him for so many years… Actually, Master and Ms. Frost really are a perfect match!"Only after Paulo's figure disappeared into the forest did Cyril turn around silently.He was suddenly startled. "Ms. Frost…""Why so guilty? I'm not some demoness who preys on monks!" Enny exclaimed.Cyril laughed. "Ms. Frost, you're really humorous…""I'm asking you, where is your master?" Enny demanded.Cyril hesitated and said, "I don't know where Master is."Enny called his bluff. "Liar!""I really don't know," insisted Cyril."Cyril, your master is going through the most difficult time of his life. As his capable assistant and disciple, you must help him!" insisted Enny.Enny's serious expression made Cyril ask curiously, "What trouble has Master encountered?""Well, he wants to be with me, but he's too embarrassed to ask. What should I do?" she asked."Does Master reall
Many years later, on the day Enny got her ID card, she drove to Skycloud Mountain overnight.There was a temple on the top of Skycloud Mountain, and she was going to see someone there.By the time she struggled to the mountaintop, it was already 6:00 am the next day.Enny was dressed in black. She wore white hiking shoes with a duck tongue hat and her hair casually tied in a ponytail.Her beautiful, bare face had been a stumbling block on her path to growth.Every year, the number of men she rejected could fill several trucks.That was just among those who had the chance to approach her, while those who didn't could only watch from afar.Enny looked straight ahead, wiping the sweat that had trickled down her cheek.She took a deep breath and walked into the small, secluded temple that was cut off from the world.She finally arrived just in time on the day the new chief abbot took office. In fact, she was there to prevent the new abbot from entering the monastic life!Driven b
Erin had planned to visit Matthew's "Thinkerin City" to buy a violin and visit him.But Matthew's shop was closed, so after waiting for half an hour with Enny, she went to another store to buy one.However, she happened to meet him on the street now.Matthew slowly pushed the wheelchair toward her.He was dressed very casually. He wore a plaid shirt with short sleeves, jeans, and branded sneakers.His simple style was a far cry from his rock star days.He looked somewhat thinner, his smile faint. "Erin, did you and Enny come to buy an instrument?""Yes, we bought Enny a violin. We actually wanted to visit your store." Erin's gaze drifted to Claire, who sat in the wheelchair.Matthew responded, "Sorry, I had to take Claire to get some medicine."Although Claire had been tragically affected by Matthew's obsessive fans years ago, she survived. However, she was left mentally incapacitated and was sometimes lucid for only a few hours.Matthew was loyal, taking it upon himself to c
Chandler's appearance wasn't anything mysterious or an extraordinary entrance.It was filled with the usual beauty and romance of a typical wedding.After reaching Erin, he knelt on one knee with a face full of happiness, opened the ring box with both hands and looked up at her.He asked, "Erin, will you marry me again?"Erin's heart was filled with joy as she asked jokingly, "If I refuse, will you force me into a wedding dress and marry you?"He replied firmly, "Yes!""Since I have no choice, I suppose I must agree," she said with a smile. Erin extended her hand for Chandler to slide the engagement ring onto her finger."You will be Mrs. Frost for the rest of your life! Don't even think about escaping!" Chandler exclaimed."Ah, I won't run. I am willing to be a happy prisoner," Erin said self-deprecatingly.Ryder rolled his eyes, his expression full of sourness.Kylan caught his expression and patted his shoulder without saying a word.As Erin put on the ring, everyone pres
Five minutes later, the doorbell rang again as Enny started doing Erin's makeup."I'll get it, Mom. You stay seated, okay?" Enny said."Fine, Mommy won't move." Erin winked at her. Seconds later, Enny shouted, "Godfather!""Enny! You look so beautiful!" The joy in the man's voice was palpable.Erin stood up and walked to the living room, knowing Sean had arrived.By then, Sean and another man had already entered.They closed the door behind them."Erin, I've brought a makeup artist for you," Sean said with a slight smile.The man beside him bowed politely to her. "Hello, Ms. Lane!""Maya, your male disguise is a total failure. You just slapped on some rough makeup without even wearing a realistic mask. You don't look like a man at all," Erin teased with a laugh.Maya couldn't help but laugh. "Mr. Frost's security measures are too strict. If I had worn a stranger's male mask, I wouldn't have been allowed in, and I would have been detained.""Why go through all the trouble o
Meanwhile, Erin had just gone to open the door of her hotel room.To her surprise, the person at the door was Roman."Rom! It's really you!" Erin exclaimed with joy. Dressed in a tailored white suit, Roman held a bouquet and joked, "Do you need to check my face to make sure I'm not wearing a mask?""Haha! I know it's you! Come in and let's talk. Thank you for the flowers!" Erin took the bouquet he offered and invited him inside.A minute later, Roman was sitting on the couch.He looked out to the underwater world from the floor-to-ceiling windows and remarked, "Enny and Eddie must really love this room.""Yes, the kids could watch it all night. Chandler specifically chose this type of room for the children," Erin explained.As Erin placed the fresh flowers in a vase, Roman inquired, "Where's Chandler?"Erin replied, "You should know what he's busy with, right?"Roman's gaze turned indecipherable, his tone probing as he asked, "You already know?"Erin laughed. "Yes. Did it d
Jill naturally denied it when she heard the question. "We didn't expose anything! Erin just happened to see us. What could we do? Pretend we don't know her? That's not realistic at all!""Did you really say nothing?" Ryder asked doubtfully.Calix was also skeptical as he questioned, "Erin is so sharp, and both of your acting skills are so poor. She must have figured it out."Tina exclaimed defensively, "We really didn't say anything! You two are so annoying! I'm dying of thirst here! Jill, hurry up and open the door. We can talk inside.""Yeah, I'm thirsty too," Jill echoed. She took out her room card, swiped it, and opened the door.The two women were about to close the door when Ryder stopped it with his hand. He asked, "What are you doing, not letting us in?""What are you coming in for? Don't you have your own room? Go away, we're going to take a nap!" Jill said grumpily."Taking a nap at this hour? Are you two pigs? The rehearsal is about to start," Ryder pointed out."W
