I frown. Why does Freddy look surprised when I mention divorce? Doesn't he want a divorce? He must have expected the divorce for a very long time.
"Tomorrow is Saturday and the day after tomorrow is Sunday. We both have time to do some preparations in advance. Let's divorce next Monday when the church is relatively free."Hearing my words, Freddy laughs as if I am telling a joke. He drives his wheelchair to the table and picks up the glass to drink some wine."What? Is he not going to divorce me? If he really wants to divorce me, he will not look like this." I think."I must push him to divorce me." I talk to myself.I take a deep breath and walk towards him. I stand behind him and laugh ironically."I cheated on you. How can you stand it? If I were you, I would not meet this person in my whole life. I would definitely divorce her. If you don't divorce me, every time you see me, you will feel disgusted."Freddy turns around and stares at me as if hElena's POVBill calls me in the morning. "Elena, we have to get access to your father's computer as soon as possible. Harry called me just now and asked when we could sell him the system. I dare not tell him the truth or the fake words."I smile. I know Bill must be anxious these days. "Fine. I have remembered some special numbers between my father and me. I think if my father set the password and wanted to pass the system to me, he might use the number in them.""Wonderful. I knew you would think of the password."I shake my head. "It may not be that easy. But let's have a try. I will meet you at the company later."When I reach the company, as I expected, it is not that easy. Although we tried every number related to me and my mother, we failed.I frown. "Maybe we can ask Betty and see if she knows anything." Bill looks confused.I explain. "Before my father got sick, he treated Betty well. The password to the entrance of our home is the combination of their birthday and the passwo
After texting Betty, I wait in Kenny's office quietly. I wonder if Betty can surprise me.If Betty could give me the right password, Elena would get nothing. I will absolutely kick her out of the business world without a penny, although she is the legal heir to the Miller group.One hour later, Betty calls me."You have tried so many passwords, I cannot think of any possible numbers related to him."I frown. "What a useless woman!" I say to myself.When I am about to hang up, Betty continues."But these numbers remind me of a password I once saw. I saw it when I was the other woman when Kelly that bitch was still Kenny's wife."I roll my eyes with disdain. Who is a bitch? You were the other woman when they were couple. But I don't bother to say anything and listen carefully."Kelly once told me that December 25, 1998 was the day when they first dated and became a couple. And I noticed that by then, Kenny's computer password w
Elena's POVWhen I go into the living room, Amy lets me sit down."What's up?" I frown."Mrs. Barnett, Mr. Barnett has prepared a gift for you."Amy opens the box on the table. In it, there is a red dress and a ruby necklace on the dress. Amy takes out the beautiful red dress. The color is like fire, passionate and energetic, well matching the precious ruby necklace."This is for me? Why?"I don't want to touch that dress from Freddy, so I simply let Amy put the dress back into the box."Yes. There will be a party tonight and he will take you there. He also gave you a pair of shoes."Amy opens another box and in that there is a pair of high heels. And shoes are red too, but they are more shiny because they are decorated with diamonds and crystals.I stare at the heel of the shoes. They are so tall. If I wear them, my feet will be painful and I may fall down in public."Why would he take me there? I know nothing about his circle
"Who is your master? He must be very rich, otherwise, how can he afford the dress, the necklace and the shoes? These are at least worth more than 3 million."The guests ask me and comment on my appearance."Yes, he is very much. Fortunately, he is old and ugly. Moreover, he is in poor health."The guests are surprised."Who is he?""A rich and unhealthy old man... Who can he be?""Miss Miller, please come upstairs."A waiter comes to me. I raise my head and look upstairs.I can see the railings on the second floor. The second floor looks like a platform where people can appreciate the show on the first floor and will not be disturbed.I narrow my eyes when I see Freddy's bodyguard standing by the railing, staring at me arrogantly.I bet when I was commented and mocked by the guests just now, Freddy must be watching as if he was watching a comedy.I follow the waiter to go upstairs silently. But to my surprise,
I raise my wrist, look at my watch, and frown, "She left the party at seven o'clock. Hasn't she come back yet?"Amy says, "No. I have been staying in the living room, and Mrs. Barnett did not come back. I am really worried about her. It is so late now. Where can she go?"I frown and keep silent."If she didn't come back, where could she go?""Did she lie to me by saying that she would come back to write a thesis?""Why did she lie to me? What is her secret?""Did she go to meet Aaron again?""Sir, I'm going to call Mrs. Barnett." Amy hurries towards the telephone.Alina's POVWhen I came out of the villa where the party was held, I was kidnapped.Before I realized anything and shouted for help, I was dragged into a car. Then I was blindfolded and my hands were bound.After that, the car drove on the road for about half an hour before stopping.I felt that I was taken to a room and pushed into a chair to sit down.Whe
"Sorry Aaron!" I apologize inside."Someone must be responsible for the missing system. Since you once betrayed me, I won't feel too guilty about using you.""Bill has discovered that the system is missing. I have no choice. I am sorry."I know that if I don't distract Bill's attention away from me, I'm going to be dangerous for the rest of my life.Suddenly, my cell phone rings.The man opens my bag and takes out my cell phone.The words 'the Barnett family' are displayed on the phone screen."You really didn't lie! Since you are now related to the Barnett family, I won't make things difficult for you, so go!"It seems that the man can not afford to offend the Barnett family."I have done what the client asked me to do. Leave now!""Thank you."...After I am free, I call Amy back at once ."Mrs. Barnett, why did you hang up the phone just now? You haven't come back so late, what happened?" Amy's voice comes.I glance at the sur
"Of course, I hope he can recover quickly. Then he can work more and not be at home often."He turns around and stares at me coldly. I don't want to fight with him so late at night when I am so tired, so I change my words."I mean, if you don’t make much money, how can you buy me such an expensive dress, Beautiful necklace and shiny high heels?”I change into my slippers, walk up to him, and turn around in front of him to show how beautiful I am in this dress.I hope he can feel better with me acting so flatteringly.“I’ve never worn such an expensive dress and high heels. I didn't even see ruby with my own eyes before. "Freddy sneers. " Pathetic woman."After uttering these words with his thin lips, he enters the elevator before I say anything to reply.I stare at the elevator doors closing. I am stunned."Freddy is a total bastard. I worked hard to make him less unhappy and tried to be friends with h
I answer, "Well. I think it is impossible to promote the whole house automatic cleaning system to reality. Can machines really clean more meticulously than humans? And people with a little money hire nannies to clean up, and there is no need to use an automatic cleaning system. I doubt this project myself, let alone investors."I sigh in despair.Blaney lays her hand on my shoulder to comfort me."Don't be too pessimistic. Many rich people invest in a project not for practicality, but for creativity."I smile bitterly."By the way, there is a party tonight, and all the rich second generations will go. Why don't you come with me? Maybe you can meet someone who is willing to invest in your project."Blaney stares at me hopefully.I laugh. "Forget it! The rich second generation is useless, only the rich first generation is possible to invest in my project.""There is also the rich first generation there. You go and try your luck! You
Freddy’s POVWhen I wake up, Alina reaches out to check my forehead temperature."Your body temperature is normal now. You slept all afternoon, and now it is dark. You should get up and go home!” Alina hands over the clean clothes that Roy has brought to me this afternoon.I look around the room with scarlet eyes.“Get up! This is the only bed in our house!” Alina urges.When I hear this, I say hoarsely, "I am dizzy..."Alina says, “Don't pretend! I just touched your forehead. You do not have fever!”I turn my head away and cough. It seems that I am going to cough my insides out.Alina purses her lips, afraid to say anything more.Although I do not have a fever, I am still suffering from all kinds of complications.Alina does not know about it and she does not care either. She goes out of the room and asks Roy for help. "Your Alpha is awake, but he says he can't get up... Let him go!"Ro
"I want to stay for lunch." I make a request.Alina is speechless.I raise my eyebrows and wait."I want to say no, but I do not even know how to say no. After all, it is only lunch. I am not so stingy as to throw a sick and hungry man out of the door."Alina rolls her eyes with disdain. “If you want to stay, then you stay and eat! I will go out!” Alina gets up from the sofa and goes to her room to change her clothes."Alina, aren't you going to come home in the future?" I get up from the sofa and chase her to the bedroom door.Alina says, "This is my home. And I am at home now.""Did my mom say anything to you last night?" I ask."No." It seems that she does not want to have any trouble so she says nothing. "After all, you are weak now. It is better to have your mother by your side taking care of you. Moreover, our affairs have nothing to do with others. I do not think we are right for each other.”"What kind of people
Amy’s POVThe next morning, Denise wakes up to find her bed empty and her heart empty.She goes downstairs to find Freddy. "Maid, where is Freddy?"I say in surprise. "I was downstairs all the time. Mr Barnett never came down."Denise says, “He is not in the room! I thought he must have gone out, so I came downstairs.”I say, “Oh, my god! Mr Barnett can't just disappear!”As I say that, I run upstairs.Denise and I search every room on the second floor, but we can't find freddy.Denise cries, "It is all my fault.... I slept so soundly last night that I did not notice he got out of bed..."I hurry downstairs and say, “I will go and ask the gatekeeper. If Mr Barnett went out, there would be a note at the gate.”In a moment, I get feedback from the gatehouse.Freddy did not go out.I immediately summon all my subordinates and begin a careful search inside and outside the villa.Ha
Blaney says, "He is much younger than Ollie and Freddy. He is just like a puppy. Alina, if you get divorced, go for younger men. They are easier to control."I say, "We will see when I actually get divorced!"Blaney says, "Do you really want to divorce Freddy?"I say, "Whether I divorce him or not, I will not get a penny of his money."Blaney says, "That is true. A man like him... most people can't take advantage of him."At dinner, I only eat a piece of bread. Then i put down my fork.Kelly says, "Why don't you eat more? Is it not to your taste?"I frown slightly and say, "Mom, my belly is starting to show now. People can know that i am pregnant."Kelly laughs and says, "You have already been pregnant for four and a half months. Your belly definitely starts to show."I say, "Fortunately, because it is cold, I am wearing a lot of clothes now, so no one can tell if i am really pregnant."Kelly says, "Well...
Freddy has lost a lot of weight. His already well-defined features now appear even more profound and elegant.How did he turn up here? Is the mysterious guest supposed to be him?After completing her task, Mary leaves the backstage. Looking at Mary's departure, I realize that the mysterious guest is indeed Freddy.He is supposed to be sick in bed, right? Is he better now?I stand motionlessly in my spot, not speaking to him or approaching him."Mr Barnett, the person you are looking for is this lady, right?" The host comes to ask Freddy.Freddy nods and says, "Thank you.""No problem." the host replies nervously.Freddy takes a step forward. He walks up to me with his calm air. He looks down at me with his blue eyes. "Let us talk.""What do you want to talk about? There is nothing to talk about between us." I lower my eyes to avoid looking him in the eye. My voice is cold.Freddy does not get angry or annoye
I feel like a knife is scraping my scalp. At this time last night, the sky began to rain. Later, it rained more and more. It rained all night.I sniff my nose.Freddy was standing in the rain on this cold winter night. He must be cold.A car stops in the parking lot outside the hotel. The door opens. Henry and Blaney get out of the car. After they get out of the car, another car stops in front of them. It is Stephen."Stephen." Henry calls him.Stephen says, "Why are you here?"Henry says, "I am looking for Alina with my girlfriend..."When they are talking, Blaney has already come to me and hugged me."I am also coming for her." Stephen narrows his eyes and stares at me from a distance. "I will let you handle this. I want her to go back to the Barnett house.""You can trust my girlfriend. She is reliable." Henry says affirmatively.Stephen sneers with disdain. "Without your girlfriend, they would not have b
The rain falls all night..And in the middle of the night, the rain gets heavier and turns into a downpour.I am awakened by the sound of the rain in the middle of the night and want to go downstairs to take a look, but I am afraid of seeing what I do not want to see, so I force myself not to get out of my bed.In the next morning, I wrap myself in a coat and hurry downstairs at 6 am.The neighborhood is old and the unit building in front of the building has a large puddle of water after a night of heavy rain.Freddy is no longer there.I let out a sigh of relief."If Alina and Freddy can divorce this time, it will be good. But I am afraid that even if their relationship is so troublesome, their life will be together as usual.Roy’s POVIt is 10 AM.In the Barnett Group, Henry hurriedly comes to the top-floor executive area."Roy, I can't get through to Freddy, so I come by to see you," Henry says. He liv
If I had the chance to do it all over again, I would still do the same thing.I have never been a perfect person.It was Alina's presence that made me try to criticize, examine, and correct my own actions.Without the misunderstandings and arguments between us, my feelings for her would not have taken root in my heart.Alina’s POVBlaney chases me out of the restaurant and grabs me by the arm."Alina, I really did not expect you to marry Freddy! This news is just too shocking!" Blaney is so excited that she feels dizzy.I feel like something is stuck in my throat and say, "You also saw that he played me around.""Henry said Freddy wanted to help you, but he was too embarrassed to come out and do it himself," Blaney thinks that things should not have escalated to this point, "Alina, let's go in! Let him explain..."I relax Blaney's hold and say firmly and coldly, "You go in! I want to be alone."I
Freddy says, "You have a veto power."I sigh and say, "Freddy, I am not you. I am not as ruthless as you. I do not have the ability to be ruthless. Let's eat.""Are you free tomorrow?" To my surprise, Freddy does not argue with me."It seems like you have some free time," I say, lowering my eyes and scooping a spoonful of soup into my mouth."I will have the driver pick you up in the afternoon," he says."Oh, where to go?" I ask curiously.Freddy replies, "You will find out when the time comes."He is making progress.Last time at the concert, he did not tell me in advance.This time, at least he is giving me a signal in advance.Blaney's POVIt is 5 o'clock.Henry takes me to a fancy restaurant."Blaney, do you remember the friend I told you about last time?" Henry holds my hand and does not want to let go for a second."The one who suddenly got married." I try to recall and
