Seeing Remy take off his pants, Serge instinctively turned around.Remy secretly took out Serge's phone and tried to dial Joseph's number while observing his movements.He had a good memory and could remember things like numbers particularly easily after seeing them once or twice.Just as he pressed the number, Serge suddenly said:- Hurry up!Remy answered "yes" and finished dialing.Suddenly, Serge turned around. Fortunately, he was slow enough to give Remy time to hide the phone. The latter quickly continued to hold his stomach and pretend to be in pain.- Remy.- Yeah.Remy groaned in pain as he clutched his stomach.- Is it okay if I marry your mom?Serge asked shyly.What the hell was that?- Of course, I don't want you to marry Mom. I'd rather Mom be with that ungrateful man than with you, Remy thought angrily.But he couldn't say it, so he pretended to be obedient and replied:- It'll be... great.Saying something against his heart, Remy felt nauseous.- Really?Serge was stil
- What nonsense are you talking about? Serge didn't want to be seen like that. Even if she was right. - Okay, forget it. Linda didn't want to argue with him either. It wasn't the right time to argue about it anyway. She needed to think urgently about how to handle the current situation. Jeanne had escaped and Mia was about to find out. - Where had Jeanne escaped? Linda asked. - The river just outside the village. The place was very close to here. If Jeanne provided clues, Mia would be able to find this village very quickly. Linda was afraid that it wouldn't be safe for them here anymore. They couldn't hide Remy here. - We must leave and find another place to hide Remy. Linda squinted, continuing: - The farther we can go, the better it is. Mia can never find him. Remy was her son. If she found out her son was lost or dead, she'd go completely mad. - Our plan is just to kidnap him and blackmail her until she marries me, then set him free... - And then what? Linda interru
- Dad, I'll go with you, said Henry, stepping forward. Gustave nodded: - Okay, it's good that you're going with me. Of his three children, his favorite is his eldest son. Although he had no talent for business, he was stable and had never worried his family. Now he was taking care of the family business too. He glanced at the other two, immediately feeling angry again. - This is not resolved. You two are not allowed to go out. Stay home and think about what you've done! - Dad... Linda wanted to explain that although her intentions were selfish, it was true that she wanted to be useful to the family. If what had happened hadn't happened, she was sure they wouldn't have been treated like this. As soon as she said that, she was held back by Serge beside her. - Stop talking! - Why? Linda wasn't convinced. - My original intention was to do something for the family. I didn't succeed, but that shouldn't be unforgivable! It's unfair to treat us like this! Gustave clutched his ches
On the other hand, Remy fell asleep in Mia's arms on the way back to the villa.One side of his face was still red and swollen. Mia felt very helpless and wanted to touch him, but was afraid of hurting him.She was really quiet and didn't say a word, just silently wiped away her tears from time to time.Remy had never been hurt before, this was the first time.When the child was hurt, the mother felt the pain too.Joseph looked at her in the rearview mirror. He wanted to comfort her so she wouldn't be so sad, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say.He'd never been a parent and couldn't understand Mia's feelings.Later, the car pulled up in front of the villa.Joseph got out and opened the door for her. It wasn't practical for her to get out holding Remy in her arms. He reached out to take him, saying:- Let me hold him.- No, I'll hold him myself.Ever since Remy was rescued, she didn't want to let go of him.She kept holding him, not letting anyone else touch him.J
Joseph was speechless.Mia raised her head to look at Joseph as if asking him what was going on.Joseph finally understood why Remy had just stopped.Remy was so young, but how could he become so intriguing?- Kid, if you keep acting like this, you won't grow up.- I'll grow taller than you.Remy seemed emboldened by his mother's presence.- What on earth was going on?Mia suddenly stood up. Judging by their tone when they spoke, it seemed these two knew each other pretty well.Didn't Remy hate Joseph a lot?How did they come into contact with each other?Had Joseph secretly come into contact with her son without her knowing?What was his intention?- Explain it to me.Mia pulled a long face and pretended not to let go of them easily if they didn't give her an explanation.- You, tell me.Mia pointed at Remy.Remy blinked and told her the truth:- Mom, I know you were bullied by Uncle Serge.Mia's heart clenched. How... How did Remy know that?- Remy.- He told me.Remy pointed to Jos
He would only show his weakness for such a short time, on this quiet night, in front of this woman.Someone said that if you hadn't lived through it, you didn't feel other people's suffering.She thought that if she hadn't been abandoned by her father, she wouldn't be able to understand his feelings right now.Maybe it was because they had a similar experience, they had a heart connection now.Mia reached out to pat his back.She didn't say much and just consoled him silently.Joseph wasn't a person who liked to show his feelings. If the person in front of him wasn't Mia, he wouldn't have shown his weakness.- Are you going home? he asked, releasing his head from her arms.- I told Remy I'd go home and bring some clothes. If I don't take the clothes, I'm afraid Remy will have doubt. He's a sensitive boy.Thinking of her son, Mia's tone became more serious:- Don't take any risks with Remy's safety in the future. I mean it.- Okay.He never thought about what he'd have to do if there w
In the video, Mia was lying on a black sofa, while Serge slowly unbuttoned Mia's clothes...Her skin and breasts were gradually exposed.- Mom, the breasts.Julie didn't know what it was and screamed again as she saw her mommy.Joseph quickly took the phone from her and Julie was stunned for a moment. She blinked, tears in her eyes. With an innocent look, she asked in a pitiful tone:- Daddy, don't you love me?Why did he snatch the phone so rudely?Joseph's face turned very dark. Apparently, this had been filmed when Serge had planned to rape Mia that day.His neck and temples were tense and his blue veins stood out.Although Julie was small, she could tell if someone was in a good or bad mood. Clearly, her father was in a bad mood now.Was it because he didn't like her?She lowered her head and wiggled her fingers. A tear drop fell onto the back of her hand.She said in a hoarse voice:- I didn't mean to make you angry, Dad.Julie's small shoulders shook slightly as she sobbed.She
In the Touchard mansion.Linda tossed and turned in her bed, unable to fall asleep. She looked at her cell phone for a while, but there were no calls or messages.Finally, she couldn't take it anymore. She got up holding her phone, thinking about it. She couldn't stop herself from making a call.Her hands trembled with nervousness and excitement as she held the phone.She'd installed a surveillance camera in the room that day, even Serge didn't know.Now it was the only card she could use to threaten Joseph.If he cared about Mia, he wasn't going to let this video circulate on the Internet.Joseph stared at his phone, his finger hovering over the screen in conflict. Just as the call was about to disconnect, he picked up.- Ah, Joseph! said Linda, surprised.She thought Joseph wasn't going to answer her call.Joseph didn't answer. Linda's joy or anger couldn't influence his mood.Slowly, Linda calmed down. Holding the blanket in her hand, she squeezed and released it several times befo
Justin was acting mysteriously:- Once you've seen the person, you'll know who she is. Now eat your lunch.- So when can she come back? asked Mia.She was slightly emotional, but also full of questions.- Do I know this person?- I see you're usually quite calm and collected, why are you so anxious now?The old man's tone was serious.- Be patient, said Justin, rising to his feet. Eat a little more.Mia shook her head, she was too anxious. The fact that he was telling her all this today meant he was ready to tell her everything she wanted to know.Now all she had to do was wait patiently for his sister to arrive, and maybe the fog and confusion surrounding her would lift.Compared to the calm of the courtyard, the garden was bustling with activity.Since Mia wanted to stay, Raphaël didn't leave either. He hadn't brought many people with him, only his assistant Cyril. Compared to the many people surrounding Joseph, he seemed to be weaker.The stream was trickling, the surface of the wa
- You are...- Mr Justin, we're here to learn how taffeta is made.Raphaël spoke first, explaining the purpose of their visit.Justin looked at the people standing at the entrance. He squinted his eyes, one could see his wrinkles. His eyes were deep, he entered the house.- Let's go in.The living room of the wooden house was small, it couldn't accommodate all the people. The security guards didn't enter as they stood outside.Even then, the house was crowded after they entered.The design of the house was simple, it was an antique style, there were eight chairs in the living room. A few drawings hung on the wall on both sides. They didn't match each other and looked messy. A table was placed in the middle. Justin sat down by it.He picked up a cigarette and lit it,- Who wants to learn from me?Mia held Remy's hand and stepped forward, saying sincerely:- I want to learn from you how to make taffeta. If you are willing to do so, be the master of my company. The pay is up to you.He s
- Why do you think Sylvie came with me? Because we are in love and I brought her here. I think today, the sun is shining and the weather is glorious, it is indeed a good day, so I choose to tell you that Sylvie and I are in love today, said Norbert with a lot of seriousness and energy.Mia didn't say anything. As the saying goes, everything can be ruined, except marriage. So she just told Norbert:- Since you've decided, forget what happened before and treat Sylvie well.Sylvie immediately felt embarrassed and lowered her head.- Mia, I... didn't deliberately hide this from you...- Okay, it's getting late, let's eat first.She would not blame Sylvie; after all, she was an adult and should have known what she was doing. The only thing that concerned her was that Norbert might hurt her.As they had not known each other for long, Norbert was so fickle that Sylvie could get hurt by him.Sylvie tapped Norbert's hand and went to Mia, saying,- Mia.Mia put her arms around Sylvie's shoulder
Norbert was tense, because Sylvie was Mia's friend. How would he explain this?- Stop crying, please.Norbert approached her to comfort her, but as soon as his hand touched Sylvie's shoulder, she pushed him away and cried out,- Get away from me! I don't want to see you anymore!She couldn't help shivering as she recalled what had happened the night before.Norbert's face changed, but he did not show his displeasure. After all, as a man, he had not suffered any loss in this matter.Not to mention that it was not the first time he had made love with a woman, but for Sylvie, it was the first time she had slept with a man.In a delirious state, she had lost the most valuable thing as a woman. So, he did not get angry even when she raised her voice.- Mia is outside and just knocked on the door.Norbert looked at her intently. He hoped she could calm down and resolve the most urgent problem first.Sylvie's tears suddenly stopped. She raised her reddened eyes.- So?Oh, no. It was so shame
In hindsight, Sylvie realized that Norbert was deliberately making Mia drink, but as to why he was forcing her to do so, she didn't understand.- It's not proper for you to do that.Sylvie glanced at Norbert.- As a man, how can you deliberately make a woman drink? It's a terrible thing. Fortunately, Mia is intelligent because she can see through your trick in the blink of an eye.Norbert was now embarrassed. Wasn't he just helping his friend?This woman daringly accused him.He pulled the chair and sat next to Sylvie, saying:- What do you know? Huh, you dare to accuse me?He deliberately sat close to her, and when he spoke, the alcoholic breath overwhelmed her. She frowned.- Get out!- Where are you going? It's just a small place.Norbert approached her and his mouth was even closer to Sylvie's face.Lucas shook his head. It was obvious that Norbert was flirting with her. He didn't want to be the fifth wheel, so he discreetly got up and left the room.Seeing the others leaving, Syl
Norbert and Sylvie were sitting at the window seat. There were a few empty cups on the table and it seemed like they had been sitting there for a long time.Norbert looked exhausted. When he saw them come in, he lunged at them without caring about his image.- You're finally back. We've been waiting for you for half a day.Lucas pushed him away with disgust.- Are you lost? What took you so long?Norbert had said he had been gone for a long time and that he should have arrived early.While talking, Lucas glanced at Sylvie walking towards Mia. Why did Norbert bring her here too? What has this guy done to her?Norbert was upset, he didn't notice Lucas's strange look. When he came, he had been caught by his grandmother and she kept asking him when he wanted to get married, otherwise she wouldn't have let him out.He lied and said he was getting married at the end of the year, and he managed to get out only after saying that.So he was delayed.The main problem was that he didn't even hav
Mia was about to explain the situation when the saleswoman interrupted:- Odile, don't listen to her. She's the one who brought these people here and who's putting this place in chaos. You'd better find someone and stop them all.Mia frowned.Joseph brought Julie over to Mia:- Go wait for me in the car.He was going to handle these things. As much as he wanted to train his son in courage, he didn't want his daughter exposed to this. Girls have to be protected in this case.Mia carried her daughter in her arms. She was about to leave when Odile, the saleswoman's cousin, stopped her:- We're embarrassed about the case because of you. How will things work out if you leave?Joseph raised his head, giving her a murderous look.- Talk with me, he said indifferently.His deep voice and indifference dominated, and when Odile met Joseph's eyes, she felt shy. He looked even more imposing than Raphaël. At the sight of his handsome face, she felt dizzy.He gave an impression of mysterious oppres
Joseph felt like the saddest man in the world. He hugged his wife, but he couldn't make love to her.Her hair brushed his face and her scent of shampoo wafted through the air, he kissed the back of her neck.Half of Mia's face was buried in the pillow. Looking at her sleeping son and daughter, she touched their cheeks.At the thought of the scene from her first time with Joseph. She wasn't feeling well, but morose.- Joseph, how many women have you slept with?She didn't know why, but thinking he'd made love to other women made her feel sad.This was the first man in her life.Although she tried not to think about it, it was still difficult.It's true that she's sentimental.She's always had a special affection for this man.This question made Joseph stop kissing her.- Why are you asking all of a sudden? he said, his voice even a little hoarse.Mia buried her face deeper into the pillow:- Nothing, I'd just like to know. Well. I'm sleepy. Let's sleep first.However, Joseph didn't fee
- I never pursued a woman. Anyway, do you still need to?Joseph already had a wife and children.Pursue a woman?Who?Lucas opened his eyes wide. - Are you...But Lucas didn't think Joseph was that kind of playboy. He'd been anxious when Mia had gotten lost, he must have loved her a lot.Joseph frowned, remembering Mia's piercing eyesight. He really wanted to please her.Lucas glanced at him and asked cautiously:- Doesn't Mia want to be with you?Joseph returned a cold look.Even if Mia didn't want to be with him, Joseph couldn't tell him, could he?Lucas spoke. - You should ask Norbert how to please a woman.Ding!Just then, the elevator returned to its original position. The elevator door opened.In the lobby, Mia didn't go into the VIP room, she stayed there and talked with Raphaël. Joseph stayed away from them, he couldn't hear what they were talking about. His face changed when he saw them talking.He walked forward. Lucas slowed his pace and kept his distance.Joseph looked u
