JEANNE'S POV

...

"Can we stop this conversation? Wouldn't you rather just take care of your son with that bitch?"

The atmosphere suddenly became tense as Leo opened his voice. I turned my head towards Leo who was sitting next to me, and then looked at Isaac Morgan whose face turned serious.

What the hell is this father-son relationship? — I said to myself.

Unable to stand the atmosphere, I cleared my throat in an attempt to break the ice.

"Ahem! I think I drank too much," I said.

Then I glanced at Leo who was sitting next to me while patting his side thigh a few times to signal him to get me out of this situation.

"I should take Jeanne home now," Leo said.

I was grateful that Leo understood what I meant. Soon after, he took my hand and we stood up.

"Oh, too bad! Honestly I wish that you could stay longer. Maybe you can come to our banquet next time," Isaac said as he stood up.

I just smiled in response, but Leo replied coldly.

"We still have a lot of business to take care of fo

    POV JEANNE... "Wait for me here," Leo said. I was a little surprised when I felt Leo's lips kiss my forehead briefly. With disbelief, then I looked into his eyes while smiling stiffly. "Can you stop this fake over-the-top act?" I said between my smiles. Leo patted the top of my head and whispered right in my ear, "I don't think it's too much to show to the public."After that I saw him move his head away from me and then put a gentle smile on me. "I'll be back soon," he said and then quickly left for another room.While snorting softly, I then seated myself on one of the chairs in the corner of the room. This place was one of the cafes that Leo had just bought. He told me before that he bought this place to cover up his family's mafia business. For minutes I just sat there with a cup of americano that was getting cold. I repeatedly cast my eyes around the cafe and occasionally glanced at the clock on my arm. I guess it's time for lunch — I thought as I looked at my watch which

    JEANNE'S POV..."That coward ... every time I imagine he touching your body, I really want to skin him," Jerry said and I knew very well that he meant my ex-fiancé, Adam Moss. "Oh, honey, be patient. At least with this body of mine he's already in my trap. I just need to seduce him a little more and I'm sure the Hart family wealth will be within my grasp.""If it's too hard to seduce him, I'll take care of it," Jerry said, "This will be easier to kill a man with no clear status than the previous two."I closed my eyes while catching my breath to control my feelings. My head felt like it had been hit by a giant mace. I never thought that I would ever have a close relationship with someone so cruel. Although Adam was the jerk who ruined me, I thought it was all over with Lily having an affair with Adam and stabbing me in the back. But as it turned out, Lily had an affair with a man who seemed to be a murderer. Worse, he could go and roam freely in the city center. I can't deny that s

    LEO POV ..."Huh?" "I said, b-can I sleep at your place tonight?" I froze for a moment when I heard Jeanne's words. I tried to reconfirm what my future wife had said. "Are you okay with it?" I asked hesitantly and she became silent. To be honest, I really wouldn't mind even if Jeanne consciously threw herself on my bed. I must admit, I'm starting to like her and I don't think any man would reject a woman like Jeanne. But the problem is that we are talking about Jeanne Hart who is famous for being a strict woman who looks more like a nun. Even at the party yesterday she looked uncomfortable in the dress I gave her. However, since I find her so charming, there's no harm in forcing her to wear it a little longer."This is the first time I've been threatened like this," she said softly. Even though she wasn't looking at me, I could see how a blush graced part of her cheeks. How cute. "B-But, if you don't allow it —""It's fine," I hurriedly interrupted her. Jeanne looked surprise

    POV JEANNE…KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK! "Miss, are you ready?" I was jolted from my reverie when I heard a woman's voice from behind the door of the room. I immediately turned around and spoke. "Can I have five more minutes?" I shouted. Shortly after, the woman's voice came back, "Yes Miss, I'll pick you up in five minutes.""Thank you."After my words I no longer heard her voice from outside. I looked back at myself in the reflection of the mirror in a luxurious white long-sleeved dress. My hair was curled and I was wearing a diamond-studded hair ornament. Everything about me looked so luxurious. I smiled stiffly as my mind unconsciously drifted, thinking of the man who would become my husband, Leo Morgan. It's been a long time since I've seen him. The last time we met was the night we enjoyed Domaine de La Romanee Conti Grand Cru wine at his penthouse. I don't remember anything after that and when I woke up the next morning, I didn't find Leo there. He only sent me a text message t

    POV LEO... "N-No!" THUDSLAM! I was silent for a while after my ass hit the floor. I stared at the bathroom door where Jeanne ran into before she slammed the door hard. I laughed afterwards when I realized how ridiculous my situation was. "Hahahaha, I didn't expect to be rejected on my first night wedding," I said loudly. "S-Shut up! You pervert!" I chuckled when I heard Jeanne cursing from inside the bathroom. She really is a difficult woman to conquer — I thought. I quickly got up from my position and picked up some pillows which I placed on the sofa. I laid my body down on the sofa. Shortly after, Jeanne came out of the bathroom but she peeked around for a while before walking out. She then climbed onto the bed and prepared to sleep, but I quickly got up from my sleep and looked at her, who was suddenly picking up things around her."If you come any closer, I'll throw this at you," he said.I just snorted softly and sneered, "You're so stiff." "I don't want to be missed

    POV JEANNE... "I'm really not in a good mood today." I was silent in my reverie as I sighed several times. Every now and then I glanced at the tea Maria had prepared for me.The day after my marriage to Leo, I moved into Leo's penthouse, whereas according to my terms Leo wasn't in the same house as me. But if Leo's family came over, then Leo would come home and sleep with me in the same room - I was forced to agree."Huh? Do you have a problem with Mister?" Maria's voice suddenly sounded from behind me. I turned my head and found Maria with a tray of cookies in her hand. "No," I said briefly as I snorted and looked away. The incident at the hotel after the wedding had upset me. How could that man be delirious and end up grabbing my breasts. "What a mess," I muttered absentmindedly as I covered my heated face. "Huh? What are you talking about, ma'am?" Maria's questioning voice came back. I quickly shook my head and replied, "L-Forget it! Just bring me some coffee... I want som

    POV JEANNE ..."That's not only him," said Leo from across the phone.I frowned in confusion and said, "What do you mean? Isn't it clearly him? I even heard that he killed two people before and it must have been my parents!""Of course, Jerry is the one who killed your parents. But he wasn't the mastermind behind the murder."Leo's words made me think again and suddenly my thoughts focused on one person."Lily Hayes.""She's one of them too."Leo's answer made me even more angry and frustrated. "Just tell me who?!"I unconsciously raised my voice, even though I didn't mean to. For a moment I didn't hear any sound from the other side. I thought that Leo might be angry with me because I shouted at him, so I immediately apologized. However, when I was just about to open my mouth, Leo suddenly preceded me."I can't reveal the mastermind right now," Leo said and I became confused."Why?""I can't explain it to you here. Wait there, I'll come to you tonight."And then the call was disconne

    POV LEO ..."Damn it!" Throughout the trip I kept swearing without reducing the speed of my car. I had entered New Jersey five minutes ago and with the approximately 350 km/h speed of my Hennessey Venom F5 and managed to cut the time from New York City from two hours to just 30 minutes. What I never expected was that Maria, one of my trusted members, was a spy from Dragonbone. And because of my carelessness, I had put Jeanne in danger now. In the middle of my focus, my phone suddenly rang. Without looking at the caller's name I picked it up and then I heard a man's voice from the other side. "Hey, my brother —""Just say what you want, asshole!" I interrupted the voice as soon as I heard it.It was Owen Morgan, my biological brother. I really couldn't figure it out. Of all the times, why did my brother have to call me now — I swore to myself. "Hey, hey, calm down. What's wrong with you?""Don't ask now," I said hurriedly, "Just end this call if you keep talking nonsense." There

    POV JEANNE … "What?!" I got up from my position. I stood behind Samuel's body and then released my grip on Samuel's arm. "We met long before you knew my brother, you say?" I asked in astonishment. For a moment, our eyes met as Samuel glanced at me. However, not long after, he took his eyes off me again. "Forget it." "..." "No matter how well I explain it to you, it won't change anything," he said. She then released my grip on her arm and walked out of the room. CREAK! SLAM! I, on the other hand, was still rooted to my spot and staring at her disappearing figure from behind the door of the room. Not even the banging sound of the door closing made me flinch. I then threw myself back onto the bed behind me, sitting down while staring at the door. With a bitter smile, I muttered, "What the hell did he say?" I paused, trying to digest what Samuel had just told me. At least I tried to dig up my memories of Samuel back then. However, I couldn't find anythin

Until he finally looked at me with a soft gaze full of regret. "I'm sorry...""...""I couldn't hold myself and —""I-It's late," I interrupted him and immediately turned my back to him. I bit my lower lip, trying to hold back all the emotion inside me. "Jeanne, I —""Go back to your room," I said, "I'll open the door for you from this room." Then I walked in and went to the door that connected this room with the second floor corridor. CLICK!After the lock opened, I immediately opened the door to my room.I then turned around and looked at the balcony door. Samuel was still standing there, looking at me before he finally lowered his face. Shortly after, he walked towards me."I'm sorry."Those were the last words I heard from him, before he walked out of my room. SLAM!Immediately afterward, I sl

    POV JEANNE…"Good night, dear...""...""...and have a good rest."After chatting for a while with Aunt Lydia a.k.a Samuel's mother in the TV room while enjoying a cup of warm tea, our conversation finally ended at midnight. Aunt Lydia then escorted me to one of the rooms on the second floor. It was the same room I remembered from my first stay at Dawn's family home. "Thank you, aunt Lydia and good night to you too," I replied. CREAKShe didn't answer me and just gave me a smile as she closed the door. However, only halfway through closing the door, I saw her suddenly stop. "Ah, I almost forgot to say this," she said as she opened the door completely again. "Yes? Do you need anything?" I asked back. I saw that afterward, Aunt Lydia was smiling and seemed to be teasing me. "By the way, Samuel's room is next to yours," she said in a teasing tone. I knew where this was going, but I chose to pretend I didn't know. Smiling awkwardly, I replied, "I see." "Well, just in case you

    "Divorce isn't always a bad thing anyway." "..." "Sometimes, it's even a good thing to get away from a toxic relationship," she said, smiling at me, "So at least be happy. Maybe it's God's way of saving you from the harm that will come to you if you stay with him." Hearing those words, I fell silent and immediately thought about my relationship with Samuel. If I think about it, our relationship is too toxic to maintain. Even though Leo said he loved me and I was already in love with him, the way he expressed his love sometimes made me feel uncomfortable. "You're right, auntie," I said later, "Thank you for giving me a new perspective." Lydia then replied me with her warm smile. "Of course, dear," she said and then glanced at Samuel with a meaningful smile. "..." "Moreover, you can count on Samuel from now on," she said in a teasing tone, "He will glad to help you." I see where this is going - I said to myself. Instead of rejecting him outright, I just smiled

    POV JEANNE … "How was the food, Jeanne?" "It's delicious," I said as I smiled at the woman in front of me, "You've always been a talented cook, auntie." I was currently enjoying dinner at Dawn's family home. I occasionally glanced at Samuel who seemed to be enjoying the leftovers on his plate quietly. "Ah, you praise me too much~" Lydia — Samuel's mother — said with an embarrassed smile. "Hm, it just common taste," Samuel said suddenly, "Besides it, I think you put too much —" Samuel stopped what he was saying and smiled awkwardly. I followed the direction of Samuel's gaze to his mother, who was already glaring. "N-No, it's not," Samuel said then and stammered a little, "I was just joking. Mom's cooking is the best, hahaha." Then Lydia's sharp gaze softened as a smile spread across her face. "Thank you~" she said. "Hm, but it would be better if you didn't cook anymore," Samuel said again, not long after that. "Samuel!" Lydia said half shouting. I was jus

    POV JEANNE … "Is it really okay?" I asked. I was currently in Samuel's car and we were heading to Dawn's family residence. After rejecting Samuel's propose, I decided to go home. But Samuel suddenly invited me to have dinner with his family. And I don't know what came over me, but I said yes. "After all, this is your quality time with your parents," I said again. I looked doubtful at Samuel who was sitting in the driving seat, right next to me. He then glanced back at me. "Calm down," he said, chuckling softly, "Don't you already know my parents?" I lowered my gaze and then said again, "Yes, but it's been a long time since I've seen them." "..." "Isn't this supposed to be your time with them anyway?" I said again, "You once said that you often don't have time to spend with them, even to enjoy dinner together." A second later, Samuel chuckled softly. "Oh come on Jeanne, I'm sure they'll be happy to see you," he said casually. "..." "They already think of you

    POV JEANNE…"So that's the problem...""...""I think he's gone too far," Samuel said, "And it's best that you separate from a temperamental person like him." "...""You'll only put yourself in a toxic relationship if you continue to stay with him," Samuel said again, "Moreover, your marriage is only a contract. What's with a guy like that? Only dare to give the woman he loves with a contract marriage. Tch! He's a loser."I smiled weakly when I heard Samuel's words. What he said was true, nothing good would come from maintaining a relationship with a temperamental person. However, on the other hand, I still love Leo. And even though I said earlier that I didn't want this child I was carrying, I still had the conscience not to throw it away. "I also think it's fine to be the father of the child you're carrying. Of course, if you don't mind," he said again. My eyes widened when I heard the sentence that came out of Samuel's mouth. However, instead of answering him, I smiled bitterl

L-Leo, listen to my explanation, this is all just ... a misunderstanding — Cough!" Noah said, stammering in the middle of his groaning and coughing."Misunderstanding?

"It was only a month ago that he did a 'face reveal' as Noisjy, and now he has a lot of advertising jobs," I said as I smiled at him.After I left Marea Restaurant yesterday, Noah immediately contacted me. We had originally promised to meet in person at Ocean Prime Restaurant, but Noah suddenly informed me that afternoon that he might be a little late because he had another job to do. I finally decided to go to his studio, which also happened to be not far from Ocean Prime. I then turned my gaze around and found the studio crews looking at me hatefully. It seems that apart from being a crew, they are also fans — I thought.With a smile of astonishment, I then said, "And there are also many troublesome fans
