Everyone praised Cecily for the rose cake she had made. Colin even suspected it wasn't her work, but Dottie quickly vouched for her.

Edwin remained silent but had eaten several pieces of the cake. Ralph and his wife each had a plate, Colin had a plate, and Edwin and Cecily shared a plate. When only one piece was left, Edwin reached for it. Cecily immediately pulled the plate closer to her and protected it, saying, "You've had so much; this last piece belongs to me." She then took a bite.

Edwin froze, his hand still reaching out.

Colin, on the other hand, first burst into laughter, but then he felt like crying. Edwin was shameless for taking his plate and eating his cake.

Colin was still afraid to speak his mind, and he continued to glare at Edwin. Edwin completely ignored him.

Ralph also enjoyed a rare hearty laugh. The atmosphere in the dining room was warm, and everyone appeared genuinely happy.

After dinner, Edwin and Ralph had tea in the living room, with Colin listening in. Meanw

    In the hospital, the bodyguard responsible for protecting Pamela spoke, "Sir, Miss Parker is already asleep." Edwin nodded and opened the door to her room.The spacious and luxurious hospital room was filled with advanced medical equipment and Pamela's favorite mimosa flowers. On the hospital bed, Pamela appeared very pale. Edwin approached quietly, and when he faced Pamela, he had an inexplicable urge to escape.Even though she was asleep, Pamela remained highly alert. But upon hearing the familiar footsteps, she didn't open her eyes."Pamela, you..." Edwin had just reached the bedside when Pamela practically jumped up and hung onto him. Edwin instinctively embraced her."Edwin, I missed you," Pamela coiled around Edwin's neck, nestling gently in his arms."I'm sorry; I've been busy lately," Edwin replied.Pamela nodded and said, "Can you stay with me tonight? I don't want you to leave."Edwin hesitated for a moment, then nodded. Pamela's pale face lit up with a big smile.Edwin gent

    "Why? Did something happen to Cecily?" Archie's immediate reaction was concern for Cecily. "She's fine," Edwin replied, but his mind returned to the woman he had met earlier, the one who had called him a "reproductive animal." He had been somewhat irritated at the time, but now, he couldn't seem to muster any anger. In fact, he found himself thinking of her. "So why give her up? Why look for someone new?" Archie was growing drowsy, likely nearing bedtime, and his thoughts were muddled. "Just do as I say," Edwin replied without offering an explanation. "Are you ordering me?" Archie joked, trying to make light of the situation. He found it all quite incredulous, and his drowsiness had vanished. Edwin looked at him. "You can interpret it that way." Archie hesitated for a moment before he asked, "Are you in love with her, by any chance?" He couldn't believe it, but it was the only reason he could fathom for Edwin's change in plans. There was another long pause. The room became eeril

But now, at this very moment, he wanted to look at her, to see her properly, even if it was only for a moment.When he saw her with Terence, he felt uncomfortable and even angry. He wished Terence would never appear again. When he saw her getting close to Colin, it also made him uneasy. He didn't want them to be together.Back when he hadn't fallen in love with Cecily, he wouldn't have cared about who she was with, even after learning about Colin's feelings for her.That day, when he heard her talking to Mort, he becam

    In the room, Archie thoroughly examined Cecily, gave her an injection, and then turned to Edwin. Despite his usual calm and composed demeanor, Archie understood that Edwin was genuinely concerned about the woman lying in bed. Otherwise, he would have relied on his family's personal physician and not sought Archie's help."She doesn't have any major issues, just a bad cold from getting chilled and being generally weak. She should recover with proper rest," Archie explained."Okay," Edwin replied, walking over to Cecily's side. She was already asleep, so he tucked her in and then joined Archie downstairs.Ralph and Teresa had been waiting anxiously, and when Archie explained the situation, they finally felt relieved."Let's talk outside," Edwin suggested as he walked out first.In the garden, the roses were in full bloom, displaying their vibrant colors, but both men were too preoccupied to appreciate them."It seems like you're really serious about this," Archie spoke calmly.Edwin nod

    In the suburbs of City A, at the entrance of an upscale villa, a young girl stood with an expectant look, gazing in the direction of the road. A smile occasionally graced her face as she thought about the person she was about to meet. There was even a rosy blush of happiness on her cheeks. As she pondered these thoughts, she heard the sound of a car approaching, and a luxurious car came to a stop right in front of her. The man who emerged from the car, even in the darkness, couldn't conceal his aura of nobility and striking handsomeness. He was not the person she had been longing for. Who could it be? "Edwin," the young girl softly called out. Edwin paused and walked toward the young girl, his brows slightly furrowing. "Why are you standing at the gate again?" He then turned to instruct the driver to go ahead. The vehicle quickly disappeared from the villa entrance. "I missed you, and I wanted to wait for you here," the young girl said, biting her lip. For a long while, Edwin re

    Arriving at Cecily and Edwin's home, which was actually a slightly more upscale apartment compared to the villa earlier, there was no comparison between the two. "Cecily, how about I accompany you upstairs and stay with you for a while? Jenny is really worried." Cecily shook her head, and she even smiled at Jenny, "Don't worry, I'm fine," she said, then got out of the car. Jenny watched her slender and petite figure head inside, and she couldn't help but think, if Cecily hadn't been adopted by the Turner family, if she hadn't fallen in love with Edwin, if she hadn't married Edwin, how much better it would have been. She would definitely find a man who loved her deeply and could make her happy because Cecily deserved it. However, who could say for sure about these "what-ifs"? In a daze, she entered the house and went straight to the bathroom. She stood under the shower, allowing the water, whether it was hot or cold, to pour over her head and face until she was soaked through. "C

    Early in the morning, Cecily returned to her room as she heard the sound of Edwin getting ready in the bathroom. Unlike her usual routine of making breakfast for Edwin, she took out her suitcase and started packing her belongings. Sadie's car would arrive shortly, as they had arranged the previous night for Cecily to stay with her for a few days.Cecily didn't have much to pack, just a few clothes and some everyday essentials. Although she was married to Edwin, he had never gifted her any jewelry or clothes, except for...Cecily raised her hand and looked at the ring on her ring finger. The diamond on it was dazzlingly large. This ring, in fact, couldn't be considered a gift from Edwin; it was purchased together with her mom's second husband. When they got married, she put it on herself. Since then, she had never taken it off.After a moment's contemplation, Cecily took off the ring. Since she had put it on herself, she felt it was only right that she removed it herself.Edwin emerged

    On the top floor of the luxurious presidential suite of the hotel, Edwin's favorite classical music played from the speakers. Cecily sat on the Persian carpet near the floor-to-ceiling windows, silently gazing at the view outside.This location in Moon Bay offered the best view of the entire island, with a beach adorned by huge fireworks and a crowd of tourists. However, for some reason, Cecily felt as though the festivities belonged to others, and she had nothing.Two days ago, she hadn't left her apartment when she was supposed to. What could she do? Her heart was imprisoned by Edwin.Edwin had brought her here, but after entering the hotel, she hadn't seen him since.In fact, when they got married, she had wanted to come here for their honeymoon, but the Turner Group's affairs had delayed their plans. Over a year had passed since then, and now, finally, she was here with him. When he said, "Give me one more chance," did he mean they were starting over? Cecily had no idea.The sound

    When Cecily woke up, it was already noon the next day. Her head was throbbing, and her body felt as though it had been run over by a bulldozer. She ached all over.Her memory was quite fragmented. She remembered being with Jenny and Sadie at Sadie's place, eating pizza and then drinking alcohol. After that, she seemed to get drunk, and she recalled seeing Edwin. She shook her head, vaguely recalling that she might have made Edwin angry.As she thought about the intense dreamlike encounter from last night, Cecily shivered. Edwin had been extremely passionate; it felt like he had wanted to overwhelm her. But wait, something wasn't right. This room was very familiar..."Oh!" she exclaimed, suddenly sitting up. Her whole body ached even more, and she realized that this was her and Edwin's bedroom. What in the world was happening?She knocked on her heavy head, trying to remember. She remembered Edwin asking repeatedly, "Do you dare?" And she had given in, saying, "I won't dare anymore." W

    Sadie and Gavin were in a passionate embrace for quite some time downstairs, and Sadie, who usually had a poised and aloof demeanor, was now acting like a sweet and affectionate girlfriend. Cecily was taken aback by the scene. Was this the same woman she knew? It seemed that women in love, even the shrewd Sadie, became somewhat foolish.Once Sadie bid farewell to Gavin and saw Cecily's surprised expression, she felt a bit flustered. "Cecily, what are you doing here?" she asked.Cecily stood straight, pretending to be serious. "If I hadn't come early, how would I witness such a splendid display of affection?"Sadie's face turned red. "Cecily, you've become mischievous."Cecily rubbed her chin. "Oh, really? I wasn't aware." She couldn't help but notice Sadie's shy demeanor, which was quite cute compared to her usual self.Pretending to hit Cecily, Sadie said, "You're being naughty."Cecily skillfully evaded the playful hit, and the two friends engaged in some banter as they made their w

    Listening to the conversation between the two men, Mort shook his head in helplessness. He wondered if Cecily had offended someone to make Edwin treat her this way."Why are you so late?" Edwin changed the subject, avoiding further discussion of Cecily."During this time, someone was tracking me. Be careful too. Nathan Parker is making significant moves, and Terence Harris is back in City A," Simon's demeanor shifted from the earlier light-heartedness to a more serious tone.Edwin paused, thinking of Terence and that night when Terence had smirked at him outside his own home. A cold smile crossed his face. "I'd like to see what they're planning this time."Simon raised an eyebrow lazily and said, "Maybe Nathan is here for Pamela? After all, he despises the Parker family so much."Edwin looked at him and said, "Then it depends on whether he's capable of it."Simon smiled and met Edwin's gaze. "Nathan's grudge against the Parkers is over a minor matter, Edwin. You shouldn't do anything

    Cecily remained silent, turning her cheek away. Edwin took another step closer, and their bodies were almost touching. Cecily frowned as her waist pressed against the railing, causing her discomfort. She extended her hand to push Edwin away, but he remained unyielding.Edwin pinched her chin and asked, "Colin? Or is it Terence?"Cecily responded, "Why do you care who I give it to?" Annoying Edwin, her chin throbbed in pain, and he showed no sign of being considerate."Oh, I can stop caring," Edwin said, releasing her chin. To Cecily's surprise, he continued, "Once we're divorced, I won't be able to care about you anymore. But for now..." Cecily's eyes widened suddenly as Edwin's hand moved to her chest. In a husky tone, he continued, "We're not divorced yet, and marital relations are still necessary. I think the balcony is a suitable place, don't you?"Cecily involuntarily glanced downward. She realized that everyone in the yard could see her and Edwin as well."What do you want?" She
