Fortunately, when Suzie returned Javier was 'sleeping'.She sighed in relief.At least, she doesn't have to face her husband who was acting strange tonight.If Javier made some strange move again, even though those actions were innocent, Suzie might really take it the wrong way and bite that hanging apple.She had never been attracted to anyone like this. Although she had seen plenty of handsome men, Javier was the cream among the crop. If she saw that kind of man, she would not desire him or have any intention of approaching him since she knew her reality too well.But not only Javier had the best looks, but he also had the best patience. He was obedient to her, and listen to her well. Those were the qualities she was looking for in a partner if she ever chose to have one.And Javier got it all.Ahh....Was she too sinful for desiring such a man?Suzie tried her best to maintain a proper distance, but she was not doing a good job of it. Whenever Javier called her 'wife', her heart w
Suzie was looking for a comfortable position to settle in Javier's arms, she wanted to check if his heart was pounding loud like hers. She moved her head close to Javier's chest. Javier took a deep breath. He felt the softness of Suzie's body. Her hair spread on his shoulder and filled his nose with her fragrance. Javier clenched his fist tighter as he fought himself to stop the urge of hugging Suzie's waist. The woman he was attracted to was on top of him, so he was having a hard time controlling himself. Even though he was weak and frail compared to the past, he was still a healthy young man. 'Please don't react...' 'Don't be a pervert...' Javier desperately wished Suzie won't notice any changes in his body. Suzie settled on Javier's chest, oblivious that her naughty move put the man in a dilemma. Her ears landed right on his heart. She heard constant loud 'thump'. His heartbeat was loud and fast... Like hers.... Suzie then felt Javier swallow heavily and lightly groaned
The sun had risen when Suzie fell asleep from her myriad of thoughts. She was woken up by a rustling noise. When she opened her eyes, she was greeted by a crystal gray pair of eyes. Javier who had been watching Suzie in her sleep was stunned when he met her eyes. He immediately sat up from the bed. "...Good morning." Suzie wiped the nonexistent saliva on the corner of her lips. Fortunately, she did not drool. She inwardly sighed in relief. "Good morning." Javier stood up from the bed and handed Suzie the warm water he had prepared earlier. Suzie: "...." She was taken aback by Javier's sweet service this early morning. "....Thank you." She accepted it and drank. She naturally handed the glass back to Javier. "Do you want to eat breakfast here or on the balcony?" "Let's eat on the balcony." It was always romantic to have their meals while enjoying the fresh breeze of the forest. Suzie thought Javier was just asking casually. But she did not expect that after she washed he
***In the past few days, Suzie had been sleeping with Javier in the master's bedroom. Javier doesn't need to speak about his agenda anymore. Once he knocked on Suzie's room at night, Suzie would transfer to his bed.This goes on until Suzie decided to completely leave her blanket and pillow in Javier's bed. When it was time to sleep, Javier would pat the space next to him with a knowing gaze and invite her to sleep in the bed.Although they shared the same bed, Suzie still positioned her back toward Javier.But when Javier fell asleep, Suzie would turn around and sneakingly kiss Javier between his brows. She would express her good feelings towards Javier in a few words. Only then she would fall asleep with a light smile on her face. Suzie could only act so boldly in the deep of the night after Javier fell asleep.She was falling in love with him more with each passing day. Her feelings were getting stronger and immense as if it was a balloon growing in gigantic size. She was afraid
The couple ate a hearty breakfast together. Because of the incident in the morning, Suzie was lost in thought. Why did Javier suddenly kiss her? Could it be...he wanted to take a further step in their relationship? Suzie sneakingly glanced at Javier. The man did not look shy or embarrassed at what he did. Instead, he had a light smile on his face as he ate. Suzie pretended to concentrate on eating. She did not raise the matter of Javier kissing her. Although she was curious as to why Javier suddenly become intimate with her, Suzie did not dislike this change. She actually liked it. It was enough for her that Javier cherished her. But if Javier wanted more, she wouldn't refuse. Remembering his soft and gentle kiss, Suzie smiled. Well, she could look forward to what he would do more in the future. ..... Just before noon came, a maid came looking for Suzie. Another thing that changed in their peaceful life was Suzie's reputation plummeted. She had returned to the time w
In City Z's penitentiary, in a dirty hallway filled with crowded cell rooms, the sound of cursing, groans and punches could be constantly heard.A guard passed into one of the rooms and banged his baton on the prison cell gate."Quiet down, you scums!"The noise in the room turned silent. The guard looked at the three inmates who were pushing down a thin man."You three, get away from him!"The three 'tsked' and let go of the thin man."Kingsley Albrecht. You have a visitor."The thin man slowly stood up. He limped towards the guard."A-am I going to be free?"The guard smacked the thin man's head with his baton."You deaf. I said you have a visitor. Hurry up and come out."Kingsley hurriedly ran out of the cell with his leg injured. He wants to get away from this cell as much as possible.His inmates were all strong and they did not fear the two surnames that were backing him.Because of them, he was not able to properly eat and sleep. He doesn't have a peaceful day ever since he ar
Ever since Suzie entered the Albrecht family, Bianca had never forgotten her goal to seduce the favored second young master.However, Kingsley was always surrounded by many people whenever he was in the Capital. There were a lot of ladies who have the same idea as Bianca. It was hard to approach Kingsley since the competition was too fierce.Thus, many months passed yet Bianca only met Kingsley a few times. Kingsley entertained Bianca sometimes depending on his mood. But their relationship never progressed. The man was always at the center of attention and was always busy with other people. Bianca had a slim chance to be with him alone and seduce him.Time passed until one day, Bianca learned that Kingsley was suddenly arrested.The upper society was shaken by Kingsley's scandal. When he was put into prison for five years, many thought that the Albrecht family gave up on Kingsley.After all, how can the powerful Albretch family allow their favored heir to be imprisoned?Since Kingsle
Colton had been watching this case closely. He invested so much in this case without holding back. He had been cautious and never committed any mistake that might cause suspicions during the investigation.According to his spies, it was supposed to be approved today!"Have you seen what state my son is in? Could he manage the inheritance while he was sleeping on his bed? My son is invalid and can no longer take care of the property!" Colton pointed out the obvious. "We knew that, sir. However, the cause of Javier Albretch's accident is suspicious and we suspected that it was a homicide. As the guardian who will be the receiving end of the inheritance, you also fall under suspicion.""Homicide? My son was in an accident! Are you trying to tear apart our family? Do you even have proof of what you are saying!""We do."Colton halted. His eyes almost went wide.They have proof?!"Also, we can't grant you access to inheritance for another reason.""...What is it?" Colton suddenly had a ba
Suzie smiled and kissed the twin's head. "Always remember that you two not only have us but you have each other. Keep looking out for each other like this as you two grow up, okay? Then Mommy will give you a lot of rewards." Hearing rewards, the two children's moods turned happy. "What rewards? Are we going to the ocean and dive with sharks?" "Are we going to fly in the air and meet Superman?" Suzie laughed. She really wished her children would never lose their innocence and their imagination towards the world. They could grow up strong and disciplined, but they should never lose their innocence toward life and their hope for the future. She would make sure of it. "Let me think about it." The two children talked about the rewards that were about to come while they held Suzie's hand. When Javier met them at the company's lobby, he could not help but smile at the scenery. The scenery of his wife and his two children laughing and smiling warmed up his heart. Life was full of ups a
"Everyone, I appreciate your presence here. The reason behind gathering you all and convening this meeting on such short notice is to announce that my wife will be visiting." Tension hung in the air as Javier initiated the meeting. However, the revelation that followed left everyone in a state of surprise. Maintaining his composed demeanor, Javier continued, "Many of you had the opportunity to meet her at last year's opening ceremony. She expresses her regret that she couldn't personally greet each and every one of you on that occasion. My wife is a busy mother, her schedule is quite demanding. I kindly ask for your understanding in this regard." "Madame does not need to apologize." "Madame's kindness is truly remarkable. It's touching that she considers employees like us. We're genuinely grateful for her thoughtfulness." "There is no need to bother about us...." Those with a talent for flattery seized the opportunity to win favor. And their strategy proved effective. Javier's
Three years later...In the massive conference room of a certain high-rise building, a group of executives and the board of directors were seated accordingly in their positions. The seat at the head of the table was empty.Everyone waited for that person's arrival with their hearts in their throats.Only the people in higher positions within the company knew how terrifying their boss was. Though young, their boss was ruthless when it came to business and never gave a second chance to those who harmed the company.He was generous to those who worked hard and remained loyal, but ruthless to his enemies. In three years, the company had risen unimaginably and become the number one empire in the country. It then ascended to a top-three rank in the whole of Asia.To those employees who remained with the company even during the most difficult times, their rise to these positions was a testament to their loyalty. They considered themselves fortunate to have stuck with the company and reaped n
In the quiet embrace of dawn's gentle touch, the sea awoke from its slumber, its vast expanse stretching out as far as the eye could fathom. The horizon, adorned with hues of soft amethyst and pale rose, held a promise of the spectacle to come. A delicate, cool breeze carried the faint scent of salt and adventure, caressing the senses like a whispered secret. Suzie tiptoed out of the bedroom and washed her face downstairs. She then busied herself in the kitchen. It had been two weeks since the couple had stayed on the island, and there hadn't been a single day when Suzie woke up early to prepare breakfast. Partly because it was Javier's fault for keeping her up late, but whenever she did wake up, Javier had already cooked breakfast and cleaned the kitchen. Even the dishes were taken care of by Javier. There wasn't much else for Suzie to do but watch her handsome, gorgeous husband handle the chores. Suzie appreciated his efforts. However, she also wanted to showcase her cooking ski
Suzie woke up, feeling an ache in her lower body. She opened her eyes and saw sunlight peeking in through the curtains.How long had it been since she was out?She slowly sat up straight and felt the stinging sensation again. She couldn't help but blame the man once more for being too fierce last night.It was as if the married couple had a connection; Javier appeared at the door, holding a warm glass of water.He looked surprised to see Suzie awake. He hurriedly walked in and handed her the water."You're awake. How do you feel?" Guilt and self-blame were evident on Javier's face. He knew that he had been too rough last night.Suzie wanted to scold him, but seeing him like this, her heart softened. Still, she glared at him. "You were indeed too rough last night."Javier gently helped Suzie to her feet. "I'm sorry. I lost control. Mrs. Zhou kept you away from me for three days—how could I not miss you?" Javier couldn't help but drag Mrs. Zhou into the conversation.Three days without
"....so just look at me and don't be nervous." A voice sounded on the front, breaking the fight that was about to start. Ambassador Milliard and Uncle Surge had already arrived in front of the bride's waiting room. At the door, Javier was almost hugging the door as he spoke with a pitiful voice, "I really wanted to see you. I haven't seen you for three days. Mrs. Luo is too strict." "We will see each other in a few minutes. So go to the hall and wait for me. Let my makeup artists work in peace," Suzie's voice sounded from inside the room. "...Alright. I miss you so bad, wife." Ambassador Milliard: "...." Uncle Surge: "...." Fortunately, they were the only people here. If other guests happened to pass by, Javier's image would completely shift from that of a peerless young CEO to that of a lovestruck fool, simping for his wife. The door swung open, and Javier, who had been clinging to it, almost stumbled forward. Mrs. Luo emerged from the room and deliberately avoided him. "Jus
Many people began talking about the couple again. Some were a bit regretful that the wedding of the century was not publicized on the TV. They could only get some news and updates from the social media of the guests.In a salon, a group of young misses were browsing their phones as they were getting pedicures.One of the young ladies saw the post and the discussion. She sat up straight in shock and the pedicurist almost ruined the nail polish she was applying on her toes."Wow! The whole island?! This is amazing! The island is so beautiful! I want to go there!" The young woman squealed. She glanced at the young woman at the far end of their group."Bianca, Mr. Albretch has gifted a very massive and beautiful island to your sister. We can go there, right?"Bianca was also browsing her phone. Even though she did not want to see the news about the wedding, everyone was talking about it and the photos from the island kept showing up on the hot search. She naturally saw this discussion.Wh
The sun hung low in the sky. The sea, a vast mirror of shimmering azure, stretched as far as the eye could see, its waves whispering secrets to the shore. Glistening flecks of sunlight danced upon the water's surface, a prelude to the symphony of colors that was about to unfold.The gentle lull of the waves created a serene backdrop, a tranquil cadence that set the rhythm for the impending ceremony.Seagulls soared gracefully above, their calls mingling with the rustling of palm fronds swaying in the warm breeze. The air held a hint of salt, making people feel as if they were in the sea's embrace, welcoming all who had gathered to witness this union of souls.At the water's edge, a carefully crafted boarding ramp stood adorned with seashells and diaphanous fabrics that fluttered in harmony with the wind. There was red carpet for the guest who embarked from their private boats.Delicate petals, kissed by sunlight, were scattered along the sandy aisle, guiding the way to the heart of th
..... While Suzie was busy pampering herself, Javier, the groom, was also solving some things on his own. He took a break from his busy schedule and visited the City Z penitentiary. City Z's prison had the maximum security in the country where high-profiled criminals with heavy chargers were assigned to. Because of Colton's identity and the long list of his punishment, he was assigned to this place. "Inmate 1206, you have a visitor!" A correctional officer banged on a certain cell's door with his baton. A thin man stood up with a confused expression. He followed the correctional officer to the visiting area. When he saw the person through the partition glass, the thin man paused. The compliant look on his face shifted for a moment. Javier was sitting on the other side with a calm gaze. He pointed at the telephone beside the partition glass. The correctional officer pushed the thin man, "Inmate 1206, you only have fifteen minutes." The thin man had no choice but to sit. He hes
