Joseph says seriously:- Since you are not agitated, go back to Country Z.Very upset, Mia clenches her fists tightly to the side.- Can you tell me why you did that?Does he know that what he did actually means "I love you"?In reality, she doesn't believe Joseph can love a woman like her, but she can't understand his behavior.She can find no other explanation.Joseph stands up.Why ?He doesn't know either. He only knows that he wants this woman back to her original position.- You're the woman my mother chose for me, so I can't beat my dead mother's expectations.Mia wants to smile, but it doesn't make her laugh at all.Right now, she doesn't know what expression she should have on her face. Is she supposed to be happy or unhappy?- You want me to come back, is it only because our engagement was concluded by your mother?Overwhelmed with mixed emotions, she doesn't know why she expects him to say "no."Joseph turns around and turns his back on her. The expression on his face is hi
In this not very big house, whose decoration is very warm, the four sit around a rectangular table in the dining room.Jeanne objects to Mia returning to Country Z, except that Mia agrees to marry Serge, which has made the atmosphere around the table very bleak.Only Julie, a naive little girl, doesn't know anything, sitting in Mia's arms and asking her to feed her.- Mom, I want egg custard.Julie points to the steamed egg custard which is very tender.Mia takes a spoonful and then puts it in her daughter's mouth.Remy sighs as he looks at his ignorant sister with the look of a troubled adult.Mia gives vegetables to her son.- Don't frown.Remy sighs.The more he is pointed out, the more he exaggerates his behavior.- Remy, watch your attitude.Despite the word of reproach, Mia has no serious expression. She is always reluctant to scold him or speak harshly to him.- Are you still in the mood to eat?Remy reminds her of her embarrassing situation.- If you can't persuade my grandmot
Remy turns and sees a man beside the sink, wiping his hands gracefully and raising his head slowly.- Not high enough?Remy keeps his head held high, even if he is small, he does not let himself be pushed around.- I don't pee.He cannot admit in front of this ungrateful man that he is not big enough.Joseph throws in the trash the paper with which he wiped his hands and gives him a look, asking:- Are you sure you don't need my help?Remy raises his head and says firmly:- No need.- All right.Joseph lifts the cuffs of his shirt, revealing half of his sturdy arms, with one hand in his pocket. He glances at the urinals, then at Remy's waist, saying:- I don't think you can do it yourself.Remy, sweating, firmly pinches his lips, his body shivers and shakes.He can't take it anymore.- Can you tell me why you are hostile towards me?Remy is even more angry because he abandons his mother, why did he kiss her again?This Joseph is not good enough for his mother, he is going to find a ma
A face quickly appeared in her mind, the same face as that man who was driving the truck when she had a car accident. She still clearly remembers the fear she felt at that time, even today she still has heart palpitations thinking about it. After the police investigation, they concluded that the truck had had a problem, which caused the accident.The taxi driver was killed in the car accident and Mia was injured.The truck driver is not completely responsible for this accident, but he should still bear the relative responsibility. Because of her injury, Serge took her out of the country, and Mia isn't sure what happened next.Although the brakes failed, it is surprising that as a driver he got into someone else's car without making the slightest move to avoid the situation or reduce the damage.She just wonders how such a driver can still drive a taxi.- Ma'am, aren't you getting in the car?The man asks her again, as if he has no memory of Mia.Mia lowers her gaze and her voice is co
- Let go of me.Mia widens her eyes and pushes Joseph's chest with her hands.- Let go?Joseph says in a mocking tone, finding it ridiculous.He was furious right now because she wanted to break up with him. Now she only believes in her son, thinking he is innocent, but doubts him.He is more angry.Mia looks away, not daring to look at him. She can clearly feel his sturdy body warmer than hers, plus his familiar breathing blows her away. She closes her eyes saying:- My son is only five years old...So it's impossible for him to do that kind of thing.She lowers her head, revealing her swan neck on which blue veins stand out slightly. Due to nervousness, her breathing is rapid and irregular, which is like an enchanting melody. Originally, Joseph just intended to scare her, however, seeing Mia's reactions, he feels all his blood boiling.He lowers his head and places a kiss on Mia's neck.His lips are so soft and a little cold.Mia pushes him away with all her strength, very panicked.
Remy loves shrimp. Jeanne says with a smile full of tenderness:- All right. Let's go.- I want them too.Julie likes to follow her brother. Whatever her brother wants, she wants too, regardless of whether she likes it or not.- Okay, okay. Let's go.Jeanne is used to Julie behaving like that.Chloe looks at Remy and then looks at Julie who is speaking. She rolls her eyes. How can these two children be so cute? Their eyes are so bright, they almost look like Joseph when he was little.- I know which stall sells the best shrimp.Chloe approaches them and looks at the two children, continuing:- They are...Jeanne does not feel weird being accosted by others. Whenever she took the two children outside, people always stared at them for a while or even came to talk to them.Jeanne is used to this.- My grandchildren.- They are adorable.Chloe can't take her eyes off of these two children. They are so cute.Jeanne smiles. It's true. These two children are all that allows her to live. Taki
Mia looks down at Adam's hand, which is holding a memory card. Mia frowns, asking:- What is this ?Adam seems more serious.- My brother did not commit suicide. He has been murdered.It's the same sentence. Mia is not interested in it.- I'm sorry. I have other business to do. I am leaving.Mia pays for her ticket and heads for the entrance.Faced with the urgency of the situation, Adam runs towards her and grabs her arm.- Six years ago, my brother received a sum of money, given to him by a woman who asked him to hit and kill a woman in a car.Bang!Mia feels like lightning is falling on her head, she is really shocked.Someone tried to kill her six years ago?- You are the woman my brother was ordered to kill. But luckily you escaped death, right?Adam says what he thinks.After discovering the recording, Adam understood why Mia found him repulsive and disgusting.Mia takes the card from Adam's hand. She watches it carefully and thinks it must be a phone memory card. Only old-fashi
Mia is stunned by Valerie's words, she remains silent, her head bowed.Last time, Joseph told her he had broken off the engagement, but Mia didn't take it seriously. To her surprise, he actually did.– After returning from country A, he decided to break off the engagement. His father is furious. They didn't get along well, now they've fallen out.Thinking about her relationship with Joseph, Valerie also feels helpless.- How, how did you know? Mia asks, fists clenched.She wonders why Valerie is sure that because of her, Joseph decided to break off the engagement.- We didn't expect him to want to break off his engagement, so as his father was very upset, he asked Geoffroy, our butler, to investigate the matter. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to find you, Valerie says frankly.Mia tries to calm down and asks:- And you came to see me...- I don't intend to do anything, I just want to visit you. Initially, we asked Geoffroy to investigate this case, we wanted to prevent Joseph from br
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
