"You can't dodge anymore, now?" Nova raised an eyebrow, smiling. "Noah Sanders is your nephew and you deliberately put Noah and his girlfriend's names on the guest list. That's a big no-no."

"Mrs. Nova, I... let me first explain that..."

"Will you leave voluntarily or be forcibly evicted like your nephew and his girlfriend?" asked Nova, making Ronald's eyes widen.

He didn't expect things to turn out like this.

Not wanting to endure the embarrassment of being forcibly evicted like Noah and Alice, Ronald chose to leave with an upset heart.

Arriving outside the Golden Era Building, Ronald was surprised to see Noah and Alice still there, standing by their car.

Their eyes widened as they realized Ronald's arrival.

“Uncle Ronald!” Noah exclaimed, and approached Ronald. Followed by Alice who followed behind Noah.

“Uncle! Why didn't you defend us earlier? You didn't even recognize me as your nephew. You said that you would help me get close to Mr. Knight during the Golden Era's birthday party

    After hearing his wife's confession, Alex felt sorry because he didn't expect Claire to be bothered by Ronald all this time.“Take it easy, Claire. From now on, you won't have any trouble at your workplace,” Alex said reassuringly while holding Claire's hand.“How do you know?” Claire's forehead wrinkled in surprise.Her eyes looked at Alex with a probing gaze.Not wanting to make Claire suspicious, Alex hid his tense face, then smiled and replied, “Because sooner or later, the Golden Era manager's bad behavior will definitely be exposed as well. I just hope that it can happen as soon as possible so that you can work comfortably.”Hearing that, Claire nodded, smiled, and then clasped Alex's hand in return. “Alex, you know what? I'm lucky to have you. You're a good man, responsible and very trustworthy.”“I'm... very trustworthy?” repeated Alex, numbly.Claire nodded. “Yes. You never lie to me or hide things from me. That's one of the reasons why I love you. For me, mutual trust is ver

    Claire could see the anger on Alex's face. Her husband's jaw was tight, so that the veins of his neck were protruding from each other.Ronald only wore a calm expression even though Alex was staring intently at him.As for the two security guards, their faces turned pale and they both lowered their heads as soon as they saw Alex.Without hesitation, Alex punched Ronald in the face, causing his hand to slip out of Claire's hair.Claire immediately took a step back behind Alex, while Ronald received several hard punches from Alex, before two security guards held Ronald's hands from the side.“So, you're Claire's husband? What were you doing in the Golden Era? You're probably an intruder. Mr. Knight doesn't like intruders very much. He could put you in jail,” Ronald hissed as he rubbed the corner of his lip which was cut and bleeding slightly from Alex's hand.Hearing Ronald's words, Claire's face was instantly filled with fear and panic seized her heart.Her husband was not part of the

    “Alex, Claire, during your marriage, have you ever gone on a honeymoon?” Emma asked Alex and Claire during dinner. Emma's question made them quite surprised, suddenly Aaron's grandmother was talking about honeymoon. “Honeymoon?” repeated Alex, raising an eyebrow.Emma's eyes were probing. “Don't tell me you've never been on a honeymoon?”“Gran, actually I was too busy with work, so I didn't have time to take Claire-”“I don't accept any excuses!” Emma suppressed her words. Her right index finger was pointed in front of her face. “Anyway, spare some time for your honeymoon with Claire. I can't wait to hold your child in my arms.”Both corners of Alex's lips turned up at that. Meanwhile, Claire looked down with a flushed face.Alex then nodded his head. “Alright. I'll take the time to go on a honeymoon with Claire. I'll make a lot of great-grandchildren for grandma and grandpa,” Alex said, then they laughed together.***Deeply intoxicated, Alice woke up from a deep sleep. She was not

    “Mrs. Nova, Claire pushed me. She also hit my stomach. I was just reprimanding her to work properly because when you left her desk, she was busy playing on her cell phone during work hours,” Lisa made up a story.Claire shook her head. “She's lying! I don't play with my cell phone at all. I always turn off my cell phone during work hours. It was Lisa who made me trip and fall on purpose!” Claire pointed her finger at Lisa.While still kneeling on the floor, Lisa looked up, her eyes looking at Claire with a disappointed look. “Why do you have the heart to accuse me? Do you want to defame me in front of Madame Nova? All the employees here know I've never made trouble with them, so why should I make trouble with you? Do you want to bully me because you've become a manager at Golden Era?”“Enough! I don't want to hear any more excuses!” Nova interrupted.Making Claire and Lisa turn back to her.Lisa smiled wryly. Thinking that Nova would definitely scold Claire and fire her from Golden Er

    After buying a lot of groceries in preparation for the honeymoon, Claire and Alex decided to go home.Now Alex sat in the driving seat, while Claire sat beside him.Suddenly one of Alex's hands grasped her hand, giving it a gentle rub.“Alex, don't drive with one hand! It's very dangerous!”“Kiss me first, then I'll drive with two hands!”“What?! Don't be crazy!”“Claire, I'm still sane. It's only natural for a husband to ask for a kiss from his wife.” Alex's wink made Claire bite her lower lip.What a perverted husband! How could he think of kissing while driving?“Alex, focus on driving!”“Kiss first!” Alex deliberately slowed down the car, he puckered his lips towards Claire.For fear of Alex's car crashing into the vehicle ahead, Claire relented and gave her husband a quick kiss on the lips.“Are you satisfied?”Alex smiled widely, nodding his head. “Already. But we'll continue at home, okay?”Claire rolled her eyes. How did she manage to marry this perverted husband?Just then, A

    A few days ago, Alice had been nagging Noah to take her on a vacation to Australia while celebrating Noah's 32nd birthday.However, who would have thought, she met Claire there instead.“Why are you always there whenever I'm enjoying my time with Noah? Are you trying to follow us? You knew we were going to this hotel, so you came here too? It seems like you really can't forget Noah even though you have a husband,” Alice accused, sneering.Exhaling harshly, Claire rose to her feet and posted herself in front of Alice. “Who said I came to this hotel to follow you guys? I haven't cared about your and Noah's relationship for a long time. I came here with my husband anyway.”“Really? Alex is here too? Wait... where do you guys have the money to come to Australia, then rent a room in this hotel?” Alice's tone sounded dismissive. “I'm afraid you'll have a heart attack, so let me tell you first. This hotel is the most expensive hotel in Australia. You won't be able to afford the nightly rent.

    After booking the hotel room, Noah put his arm around Alice and walked towards the elevator. Meanwhile, the hotel concierge had already brought the suitcases to their room.However, their steps stopped when they saw Alex and Claire walking towards the elevator.“It's Alex and Clare! Noah, remember! Claire is in danger. We can't just do nothing. Alex will definitely take Claire to meet the rich man who bought her.” Alice clasped Noah's arm.Noah nodded. “Yes, come on, we have to save Claire.”They both stepped into the same elevator used by Claire and Alex.Of course Alex and Claire immediately put on surprised faces when they saw Alice and Noah joining them in the elevator.“You guys?” squealed Alex, surprised to see them in the hotel.Then Alex remembered that Claire had looked upset after he left her in the hotel lobby.“Did Noah and Alice come back to bother my wife when I left her for a while?” Alex wondered.Noah smiled wryly at Alex. The two men stood side by side, as if intimid

    “Shit! How could Claire trust Alex! She doesn't know that Alex isn't a good guy.” After Alex's hotel room, Noah and Alice now entered the hotel room they had rented.Alice chuckled to herself as she surveyed the room. Which was far compared to the hotel room rented by Claire.In fact, it was three times as spacious as Claire's hotel room.However, hearing Noah's grumbling, made Alice smile wickedly. She was happy that she managed to make Noah fall for her lie.“Claire is so stupid. She should have had more faith in me who's been with her for years,” Noah continued.Alice's hand wrapped around Noah's arm and rubbed his chest to calm him down. “Calm down. We tried to tell Claire. I didn't expect her not to believe our good intentions either.”“Claire should be smart, like you. When will she see your kindness, Alice?” Noah held both of Alice's shoulders. Making their bodies face to face.Alice smiled a little. “I don't think Claire will ever be able to see my kindness because all she has

    Alex grasped Claire's hand tightly. "She just worked with Tristan. Tristan is already in jail. Now it's Alice and her mother's turn to rot in prison. They seemed very happy after Alice signed the letter transferring the ownership of my company. Our plan worked. So happy, they didn't suspect that it was just a fake letter to trap them," Alex said, then hugged Sandra's body from the side while giving her arm a stroke.Before this, Claire had listened to many explanations from Alex. About Alex who had never touched the fake Claire during the time the real Claire disappeared from his life.Claire was relieved that her husband hadn't spent a single night with another woman. Likewise, Alex is happy that his original Claire has returned.Even though Alex had yet to reunite Claire with their two children.“Just arrest her now!” Alex ordered the two policemen standing in front of him.“Yes, sir.”The policemen nodded and hurri

    “Honey, I'm home!” Alice stepped into the house carrying a lot of papper bags filled with the luxurious things she had just bought.She even ignored Alex's children who were eagerly approaching her. Valen walked quickly over to Alice to show her the results of her drawing at school that got a 100.Until the girl pouted and sat on the sofa hugging her drawing book and watching Alice unpacking."You're finally home. I've been waiting for you." Alex came down the stairs still wearing his work suit.Alice turned around with a smile. "Look dear! I bought some nice shirts for you earlier. Oh yes, today I bought more jewelry and branded bags for my collection. Actually, there are many more purchases placed in the trunk. But they're being taken away by the waiters. Do you think I'd look good with this bag?" Alice said and took one of the Gucci brand bags and showed it to Alex."Good. You match the bag. You didn't buy any toys or stuff for the k

    Claire was startled, looking quickly at Tristan. Then she quickly shook her head. "No, it's not. My name is not Wilona. I'm not his girlfriend either. He lied. My name is Clai-"“Wilona!” snapped Tristan with a tightened jaw. His intonation was full of emphasis, which surprised Claire.Claire recalled Tristan's threat to kill her biological mother if she dared to confront him at the airport.“Can we see your boyfriend's face?” the policeman asked again.“What for? Or let us see his passport.”"What's your purpose? We're in a hurry to fly to Australia. You can prevent us from leaving. Besides, there's no requirement that we show you our passports at the airport," Tristan firmly refused.His arms tightened around Claire from the side.Claire's heart began to fret.On the other hand, she felt worried about her mother. However, when else could she escape with this golden opportunity?"Very

    Claire brushed him off, then spat in Tristan's face, making him jump in surprise as he closed his eyes.Tristan's right hand was clenched tightly on the steering wheel. It wasn't that he wanted to punch Claire in return, but he was annoyed that she hadn't conquered him yet."Just watch! I'll report you to the police!""Keep your plans to yourself. The police won't help you either. They won't believe you if you claim to have been kidnapped and claim to be Mrs. Knight. Because the fact is, everyone knows that Mrs. Knight is still by Alex's side."Claire was stunned by Tristan's words. “So it's true, there's a woman claiming to be me and she's staying with Alex?”Tristan replied with a lopsided smile.“That's your plan, right, Tristan?”"Yes, dear. It was all I could do not to lose you," Tristan replied, grinning.Claire's heart felt like it was being broken into pieces. It was devastating to think of her h

    "Lately, Claire has been shopping for fancy clothes and bags. I don't forbid it, but this is very strange. Usually Claire doesn't care about how expensive the bags and clothes she wears are. She's never been crazy about luxury goods. I don't know why I feel that Claire's character is changing day by day," Alex muttered, scratching his forehead that wasn't itchy.Rubbing his face, Alex exhaled softly.Then a knock on the door distracted him.“Come in!”The door creaked open. Vincent came in with a slow exhale, his expression one of weariness."Sorry, Mr. Knight. There was a bit of a commotion on the seventh floor," Vincent said, informing him."What's the commotion? Why not have security take care of it? Why did you come to my office? Did you think I wasn't busy?!" Alex scowled."I apologize again. The thing is, this commotion was created by Mrs. Knight."“Claire?!” Alex chuckled at that.What was

    "Don't cry! I believe you," Alex said, softening his voice.Alice seized the moment to take things further.Her hands slowly moved down Alex's broad chest under the brown pajamas. Then Alice's fingers were about to unbutton Alex's pajamas one by one.The top three buttons were undone. Alice's eyes widened with pleasure at the sight of the firm chest on which she would rest her head after sex.However, Alice's reverie was interrupted when Alex suddenly grabbed both her hands and pulled them away from her body."Why Alex? Why don't you want me to touch you?" Alice asked disappointedly."Don't do that yet, Claire. I'm not feeling very good tonight. Next time," Alex said as he touched Alice's pouting cheeks.“But...” Alice was getting bolder and bolder with the buttons of Alex's shirt.But the naughty hand movement was immediately restrained by Alex. "Sorry, dear. I can't yet. Now go to bed first," Alex concluded as she

    Alex and his family had just returned from a vacation in Paris.There were some oddities about his wife while they were enjoying their vacation.One of them was his wife's complete disregard for Valen when the boy was pensive alone in their hotel room.Yes! Valen was mostly pensive in the hotel. While his wife was busy playing with her cell phone and checking her groceries.Alex was astonished. Usually his wife was the least likely to let Valen or their youngest son be pensive alone, let alone with a sad face."You can finally sleep in your room again, Valen. Are you happy?" Alex walked into her daughter's room.Tonight Valen had changed into her favorite hellokitty print pajamas.Alex had also dressed up in brown striped pajamas with short sleeves."Yes, Dad. I'm glad to be home again." Valen replied, smiling with his toothless teeth.Alex smiled broadly, sitting on the edge of the bed as he gently rubbed Valen's arm.

    "I've been in this house for quite some time. I haven't even met my children and husband yet. You must have seen the news wrong. Alex and I have never taken a vacation to Paris with our child," Claire said, shaking her head slowly.Hearing Claire's confession, Lenny was shocked.Claire said she's been in this house for a long time? Then, who is the woman with Alex right now?"I was kidnapped. I was in Tristan's house for almost a month. Tristan is a man obsessed with me, he locked me up, forbid me to see my family. Help me, Lenny, I want to see my husband. By now Alex and our two children must be looking for me. They're probably worried about me." Both of Claire's hands held Lenny's.Claire's words this time made Lenny even more stunned. His mouth was hanging open as he could not believe Claire's statement."But Mrs. Knight. I don't think your husband and son are worried about you.""What?! How could you come to such a conclusion?" Claire lo

    With all her might, Claire tried to scream. Hoping that her husband would hear and recognize her voice.Unfortunately, Alex's car was already too far away.Claire's tears broke out. Her body suddenly went limp. If only she could make eye contact with Alex, surely he wouldn't think twice about saving her."Mr. Tristan knows you tried to run away from home. He is very angry and waiting for you. Obey us, and we won't hurt you," threatened one of the bodyguards as he instructed the driver to drive the car back to Tristan's house.Upon arriving at Tristan's residence, Claire, who was already weak, let the two bodyguards hold her hand and entered the living room.There, Claire's eyes immediately met with Tristan's eyes that were filled with anger.The man's gaze looked sharply at her, as if he wanted to pounce on her.Claire gave up, she didn't care if Tristan wanted to kill her right now.Clenching his fists firmly, Tristan walked d
