After Lillian and Dora went to the kitchen to prepare the fruits, Evan, Ryan, and Raina were left in the room. Raina could not stand to watch the Twins. After all, as long as these children were alive, there was no way for her to separate Darren and Areiza.But she has to suppress her disgust for them. After all, they were important tools for her to successfully marry into the Venzor family. Thinking that, Rena picked up the baby snacks that were prepared in advance, put on the gentle smile she could muster, and slowly approached the twins. She coaxed them. “Hello, Evan and Ryan. Will you call me Mommy, please?”Evan and Ryan, who were playing suddenly stopped. They looked at her. Raina smiled more brightly, waved the snacks in her hand, and secretly pressed the recording key on her mobile phone, “Come on, call me Mommy!”As she expected, the Twins looked at the snacks, and without thinking they said, “Mommy!”Raina was overjoyed. If I could make the Twins like me, then it would be ea
During the afternoon, Areiza sat in her office reading some documents while Elena knocked on the door and came in.“Charlotte, someone is willing to invest in our project on the west coast. Here is all their little information regarding said company.” Eliana said and she handed her a stack of documents.Areiza read through the documents carefully. The company was going to invest in the project named KD Group’s CEO is someone called Corey Stanton.‘Corey Stanton? I have never heard this name before. Why did a stranger form lesser known company suddenly want invest in the Wilson Group’s project?’ She thought.After a movement of contemplation, Areiza looked at Elena and said, “Can you set up an appointment with Mr. Stanton for me?”“To be honest, he is also asking to meet with you. He’s trying to schedule an appointment with you at May Cafe at ten tomorrow morning.” Elena replied.Surprised, Areiza raised her eyebrows. ‘It seems that he is well prepared.’ She thought. Areiza nodded in r
This time, Darren was taken aback. He looked around, staring daggers at everyone around him. All the servants lowered their heads.“From now on, no strangers are allowed to enter the house. Do you all understand?” Darren ordered.“Darren, you are taking things too far. Am I not allowed to bring my best friend home for some fun? Besides, Raina is no longer those stranger to us anymore.” Dora complained as her eyes widened.Darren must admit that she could be spoiled. At the same time, she was naive and sometimes stupid.“Dora, you need to be more vigilant than that. Some people don’t deserve to be your friend.” Darren argued.“Darren, you’ve gone too far.” Dora was so angry that her face turned red.“What are you two arguing about? Just come over and have a dinner.” At that moment, Lillian intervened and tried to smooth things over.Then, the whole family sat at the dinner table, one after another.There, Frank looked at Darren and asked, “News about this Charlotte Wilson is spreading
Areiza felt like someone just knifed her in the chest. She forced a bitter smile, thinking, ‘Darren and I weren’t family anymore. We were never, ever get back together!’“Sweetie, please don’t tell your father that you saw me today, okay? Let’s just keep this a little secret between us, okay?” Areiza asked and ran her fingers through Aaron’s hair.Aaron pursed his lips, averted his gaze, and then nodded. Then, Aaron and Areiza spent some time together in the amusement park.Eventually, Elena walked up to her and said, “Miss Wilson, we should go now. You have a meeting to attend.”Areiza glanced at her watch and reluctantly let go of Aaron. Once again, Aaron hurled himself at her and held on to her tightly, unwilling to let go. “I don’t want you to leave, Mom.”“I’m so sorry, honey, but I have to go to the work. We will do this again next time, okay?”In the end, Aaron lets go of her with tears in his eyes.Areiza almost broke down and ran back to him. With a heavy heart, she turned ar
As soon as Areiza got home, she went straight to her study and began writing a plan for the amusement park project. Just as she was about to finish it, she saw, from the corner of her eyes, the investment letter of intent that Corey had sent. Elena asked their people to investigate Corey’s background, but she didn’t find anything that linked him with Adam.At this moment, Areiza picked up the latter and took a careful perusal. The more she read it, the more pleasantly surprised she felt.Many of his ideas coincided with her. What was more, he also raised questions that she had not thought of. The letter of intent he had written exceeded her expectations. Needless to say, it was amazing.Her perception of Cory changed upon reading it. She must admit, he had talent, whether or not Adam had sent him. All of a sudden, her phone rang, disrupting her thoughts. It was a call from the hospital.She answered the call at once, “Hello, sir?”“Hello, Miss Wilson, Mrs. Jennifer Venzor will be disc
Darren was deeply immersed in his work when he heard a commotion outside. Then the door of his office slammed open, and Dora marched in with smoke coming out of her ears and nostrils.“I’m sorry, Mr. Venzor. I told Miss Venzor that you’re busy, but she instead of coming in.” Tina apologized.Looking embarrassed, Darren rubbed his temple and nodded at Tina, “Don’t worry about it. I got it from here. You may go.”“Thank you Mr. Venzor,” Tina sighed in relief, hurried out, and shut the door behind her.Dora walked over and took a seat across from him. Then she snapped, “Why did you block Raina?”“You barreled through my office door just to ask me that?” Darren looked at her indifferently and said.Dora flinched for a second, then said, “Are you still thinking about that bane woman?”“Watch your mouth, Dora!” Duran looked her straight in the eyes, failing to hide the anger in her voice.“Darren it’s been a year. It’s time for you to move on. You are not happy when you are with Areiza, so
Rose was packing her things at home when she got a call from Darren. She had planned to stay at the hospital so that she could take a look after Alex. Besides, he wouldn’t be able to do anything to drive her away.“Rose, Alex insisted on leaving the hospital. He has asked you to pick him up.” Darren said.“Alex asked me to pick him up?” Rose was shocked by this. “Did he mean it?” She asked.“Of course, Alex is a stubborn jackass. Nobody can force him to do something he doesn’t want to.” Darren said while holding his laughter…Hearing that, Rose dropped the call, threw her clothes aside, and went to the hospital to pick up Alex. Upon reaching the door of the ward, she saw him sitting in a wheelchair all alone. He was looking blankly at the scenery outside the window, seemingly lonely.To her, he kind of looked like an abandoned child at this moment. Merely seeing him in this state broke her heart. In the past, this man was so flamboyant and animated, but now… he had to sit in a wheelch
On the day of the auction, Raina was waiting at home for Darren on the edge of her seat in anticipation. She kept on fantasizing about going with him to auction. Like how she had worn the evening gown that he bought for her, take his arm and greet the envious gazes from countess gusts.” The more she thought of it, the more excited it made her.But as time passed by, Darren still didn’t arrive, and nobody sent her the dress. Feeling as though someone had poor cold water over her, Raina’s heart froze. ‘Why isn’t Darren here yet? Is is possible that Areiza is pestering him again and he is having a hard time getting rid of her. She already chose to lose. Why on Earth did she come back?’Disappointed and furious, Raina pinned all the blame on that bitch Ariza. In a fit of rage, she threw all the accessories sitting on the dresser to the ground to vent her frustration. At that moment, Mrs. Hill opened the door of her room and happened to see her throwing her tantrum.“Raina, what’s got you
Darren carried Charlotte to the suite upstairs of the hotel near the church, where the reception was held. Inside, he placed Charlotte on the bed while he sat on the edge of the bed and said, “When are you planning to open your eyes?”Charlotte kept her eyes closed and held her breath nervously, not daring to open her eyes.“Well, it’s good things you that you don’t want to wake up!”Before Charlotte could even begin to understand what he meant, she felt his warm breath seep into the skin on her face. Charlotte opened her eyes and met Darren’s deep-set smiling gaze. His face was inches away from her and he was about to kiss her. Fortunately, he stopped the second she opened her eyes.Seeing his smile made Charlotte excited. “You know that I just pretending?”Darren didn’t answer the questions. “Were you aware that I was outside at the time?”Charlotte couldn’t respond to his query, so she just looked at him blankly. She had won the bet. At first, Charlotte just hoped that Stella could
Today was Peter and Anna’s wedding day.Darren came to the villa early in the morning to pick up Charlotte. However, Charlotte didn’t want to show up with him in the same place.“Charlotte, if you don’t want to see news about us breaking up tomorrow morning, then you had better come with me.”Even if their relationship was on the verge of breaking right now, the truth remained that the public still saw them as a loving couple. Though Charlotte was uncomfortable about the idea, she had no choice but to go to the party with Darren.When they entered the banquet hall, Darren wrapped his arm around her waist and pressed her body against her.The fabric of Charlotte's dress was thin, so when his palm landed on her waist, Charlotte’s body temperature rose and she felt her blood coursing through her veins.All the other guests at the wedding looked at them with envy. Teasing and sighing at how sweet they were.Charlotte was so embarrassed that she turned to him and said, “Let me go, will you
Peter was right behind the door when he saw Stella badgering Darren. He watched as Darren pushed her away and ran after Charlotte.Stella fell to the ground, but she got up held onto Darren’s lap, and continued begging regardless of how humiliating her act was.“Darren, where are you going? Don’t go! Please.”“Let me go,” Darren growled. In an act of desperation, Stella shook her head, held on to him, and refused to let go. She was no longer the proud woman she once was.“Darren, I’m begging you. Just give me a chance to be with you!”Finally losing his patience, Darren pushed her away from him and stopped her before she could latch him again.“Stella, you have no idea why I’m letting you show your face to me. It’s not because you are my friend, nor it’s because I want to keep some sort of connection to you.”“Then why?” Stella asked with tears in her eyes.Peter didn’t hear what Darren said in the end. He saw how despair consumed Stella and it showed on her face. She fell on her knee
“Its fine. Rose and I share a birthday. Charlotte is a good friend with her, so I’m sure she will be willing to celebrate her birthday.” Stella said firmly.At that moment, Dora crap out by Stella so well-informed. ‘And she is so adamant on getting her hands on Darren.’The more Dora thought about it, the more she sensed something was amiss.As soon as Dora got home, she told Charlotte everything that Stella asked her to do.Charlotte pondered for a moment and said, “You should ask him directly. He can make decisions on his own.”“Aren’t you worried that rumors would circulate if he attended her birthday party?”“He probably won’t go,” Charlotte replied after some consideration.Dora nodded in agreement.The next morning, Dora asked Darren for his opinion. He just looked at her, and asked, “What did Charlotte say?”“She said that it’s up to you,” Dora answered.“Up to me?” Darren frowned in confusion.“Yes, but she also said that he probably won’t go,” Dora added.“Is that so? I will
“But I can’t stand it anymore, baby! Just let me fuck you, okay?” Darren lifted her chin with his finger and begins sucking on the tip of her tongue.Everything he did felt so good that Charlotte eventually gave in. He began caressing her tits, rubbing her nipples, and then pulling them. Soon, Darren loosened his grip on them. Charlotte’s breasts jiggled and bounced after he let them go.“Ugh,” A moan escaped Charlotte’s mouth, completely arousing Darren. He pressed his body against Charlotte. Thereafter, Charlotte felt he is huge manhood rubbing against her vagina. As Darren kept moving, Charlotte's desire grew, and she could no longer think of anything else.“Charlotte, can I?” Darren pressed his manhood against her, making her wetter by the second.“Darren, I want It. Give it to me.” Charlotte had no strength to hold back his neck. She wanted to grab something, but all she could do was to randomly wave her hands in the air.“What do you want me to give you baby? Tell me.” Darren be
After the meal, Darren touched Charlotte's forehead to check her temperature again and pulled her out of the Starlight restaurant.“Come with me to my office.”“But I wanna go home and rest,” Charlotte complained.“Well, you can sleep inside my office, too. Come on!” Darren put his hand on her shoulder and gently pushed her to his car.When Charlotte got into the car, she was about to fasten her seat belt, but then Darren leaned into it and fastened it for her. The tenderness in his eyes made Charlotte blush.Darren then cupped her cheeks, smiled at her, and leaned closer to her face. “Kiss me!” he said.“Huh?”Just before Charlotte could gather her composure, he lifted her chin and kissed her lips. Charlotte held her breath nervously too anxious to make any noise.It was already lunchtime, so many people were coming and going outside the place. Their car park was visible to many people. Passerby could easily spot them if they would look at them.Charlotte didn’t want other people wat
Because of how he reacted, the doctor felt tense and uncertain about what to do.Charlotte's face palmed and said to the doctor, “Honestly, I am feeling alright already. I’m sure I will get better after taking the antipyretic injections. Thank you, doctor!”The doctor nodded with a smile and left the room.Once he was gone, Darren sat back in his chair and directed his attention back to Charlotte. “You really can’t take your eyes off a handsome man when you see one, can you?”“What are you talking about? I was not looking at him.”He was so angry that he was practically snarling at Charlotte. “Are you not attracted to me anymore, Charlotte?”The look of jealousy and frustration on his face was amusing. He looks so childish!Once Charlotte's infusion was done, Darren held her out of the hospital while holding her wrist. By the time they reached the gate, their fingers were already interlocked. Charlotte’s heart felt a sense of comfort and warmth as she held his hand with him.After the
For a long time, Anna I stood frozen on the spot with her hand hovering above the door.Eventually, she dropped her hand with a sigh. She found a corner by the porch and curled up in it to cry her eyes out. the crowd.After a long time, Charlotte came back and was surprised to see her at the door. “Anna?”Anna looked up at her, her cheeks red with embarrassment. It was indeed abrupt for him to come here, but she had nowhere else to go. “Charlotte, can you take me in for one night?” She wiped the tears on her face and asked brazenly.Charlotte gaped at her for a few seconds before walking up to her. She held her hand and took it. “Come in!” Charlotte said.Charlotte asked the maid to cook some soup and bought it for her.Seeing the steaming hot soup in front of her, Anna felt the warmth and acceptance of the family, which was also something she earned for most. Anna picked up the bowl and felt a lump in her throat.Charlotte’s three kids sat opposite and looked at Anna curiously. Anna
Stella called Peter out of the blue and asked him to come to the bar where she was and keep her company.During her drunken speech, she broke into sobs several times.When Peter hung up the phone, he hesitated for a while but eventually decided to drive to the bar.Judging by Stella’s near-incoherent speech, she was very drunk. Not only that, she was a drunk woman in a bar alone. The number of things that could happen was too high for Peter to even contemplate.When Peter got there, he saw many empty bottles on her table. Stella was in the process of pouring more wine when Peter walked up to her and confiscated the bottle.“You have enough to drink!”With tears streaming down her face, Stella turned to look at him in disappointment. “Why are you here?”“Who else could it be if it were not for me?” Peter asked him confused.“I don’t want you. I want Darren.” And all of a sudden, Stella grabbed his shirt and looked up at him with hatred and determination.Her reaction pissed Peter off a
