It was a warm summer night. Eliza Moore stood on the balcony of the mansion, her eyes looking in the direction of the red BMW Z4 that had just driven into the courtyard. Although the lights inside the car were not on, she could clearly see a pair of bright and tender arms on a man's shoulder, wrapped around his neck. They kiss passionately as if they didn't mind someone peeping at them. No, Eliza should not be a peeper, but a spectator! The man slipped his hand into the woman's white dress, and it was clear from his movements that he was very familiar and skilled. Obviously, it's not the first time he has done it. The woman in his arms lifted her chin, revealing her beautiful neck. Her eyes shot knowingly in Eliza's direction and her bright red lips curved provocatively. “AAHHH…” She moaned on purpose, making the man more enthusiastic about his action. Eliza looked at them coldly. When she saw them fornicating for the first time, she may have felt devastated, unhappy and despe
Half an hour later. Eliza ignored all the stunned looks from the people around her as she walked straight over to a bar counter and sat down. "Give me a glass of dreamy night please..." 'Dreamy night' was the name of the cocktail. It is the signature cocktail of Neon Night's Bar. Every day many people come here to chill and get drunk. It was a common sight for the bartender. Hearing what Eliza said, the bartender quickly and skillfully made her a glass. Within a minute or two the glass of a transparent and very tempting drink was handed to her. Eliza accepted it and without hesitation took a large gulp until the glass was empty. The spiciness of the mint came after cooling and it gave a burning sensation all the way down the throat. Eliza's cheek flushed, making her look even sexier. The men around looked at her with a ravaged look as if they couldn't wait to strip her clothes and lick her. Some people yearned for action, and some came forward to start a conversation. "One mor
On the large soft bed in the bedroom, two fiery bodies were intimately entangled with each other. Erotic sounds and heavy breathing can also be heard. The exchange of pleasures was so intense that it felt like there was a raging storm mixed with lightning and thunder happening right now. This scene continued for a long time and it finally calmed down just before the sun rose. Eliza was almost sober, but her body was abnormally tired. She opened her misty eyes and obsessively looked at the face of the man near her as if the surging love in her eyes could burn people. “Henry…” Her voice had broken the silence. Eliza closed her eyes and shouted Henry's name repeatedly. “Henry, Henry.” Along with her mumbling, tears fell from the corners of her eyes. The affectionate atmosphere immediately disappeared and the bedroom was now occupied by a depressing atmosphere. Fredrik squinted his eyes and stared coldly at Eliza. He rubbed the tears from the corners of her eyes with his fin
Fredrik Young was Henry's uncle. He was a taboo for the entire Young family. Although Eliza grew up with Henry, since childhood, she had only heard of the existence of this uncle. If she hadn't met him on her wedding day, she wouldn't recognize him at all. "Weren't you abroad the whole time?" "Yeah, I just got back last night." It just so happened that his friend wanted to meet him. It was an urgent matter so Fredrik went to Neon Night's Bar as soon as he got off the plane. 'What will she do now? She actually slept with Henry's uncle!' Eliza pushed him away in panic and subconsciously wanted to move away from him, but she accidentally fell to the ground while holding the blanket. She was befuddled about their current situation. "Does it hurt? Why are you so careless?" Fredrik sighed helplessly and immediately got out of bed, leaning forward to help Eliza. When she suddenly jumped up and rushed into the bathroom like a scared rabbit. "I'm going to take a shower." Click. She h
"Why is that impossible? Aren't you worried that others would find out what we've done?" "There's nothing to worry about." Fredrik didn't care at all about the Young family. Even if others found out, so what? Besides, he would rejoice if he could destroy the reputation of the Young family. “You…” Eliza immediately felt depressed. It's evident from his face that he really didn't care. She then bit her lip and asked, "So, what do I have to do to get you to let me go?" "Wait for me." Fredrik stepped forward and fondly licked her earlobe before slowly saying, "Once I get tired of sleeping with you, this will naturally end." As to when he would get tired… Only God knows… Unaware of what Fredrik was thinking, Eliza could only grit her teeth and nodded, "Fine. But make sure others won't find out about our relationship." Since there was no other way to get away from him, she can only acquiesce to his wishes. Moreover, if Henry could brazenly have sex with Nicole in front of her, why cou
“You…” Henry controlled his anger before showing a malicious smile and with his cold eyes he said: "Good, well done, Eliza. But I'm telling you, I wouldn't just leave this matter here! You better be careful and not let me catch you with your lover. If that happens, I'll make sure to punish both of you." 'Sure! Feel free to confront your uncle!' Eliza snickered silently, as her face showed no reaction. She gave Henry one last pensive look with her cold and distant eyes, before walking away with her proud and impassive back. Boom! The sudden sound of the front door slamming loudly behind her was heard. It immediately sent shivers straight through Eliza's heart and her body weakened. She quickly grabbed the railing next to her for support. Eliza felt terrible. Her heart ached excruciatingly. She could clearly feel the pain from the slap in the face Henry had given her, but it was nothing compared to the pain she felt in her heart. "Hmph!" Eliza pursed her lips in self-mockery
["You must show me your sincerity."] Eliza had racked her brain for every flattering word she could think of to please Fredrik, but that was all he had said. One short sentence, and that's it! He ended their chat just like that! She was very vexed and almost smashed her phone in an uncontrolled rage. Albeit Frederick's actions had provoked her a lot, Eliza couldn't deny that ever since she was entangled with Frederick, she had unconsciously put aside her worries with Henry and even forgot all the sadness, suffering, and despair in her heart. And even though Henry didn't come home all night, it didn't bother Eliza anymore. She was no longer affected and she didn't care about him. — The next morning Eliza drove to work after eating her breakfast. After she married Henry, Eliza continued to pursue her career, never once considering being a full-time housewife. She was the sole rightful heir to the Moore family business. Therefore, she is expected to take over the Moore Corpora
Nicole turned around and left angrily after giving Eliza a stern warning. Eliza lowered her eyes and smiled scornfully for a moment. In the afternoon, Eliza received a phone call. It was the housekeeper from the old mansion of the Young family. The housekeeper informed her that a large-scale cocktail party would be held in the old house three days later. The young family was a century-old family that was quite influential in A City. One could imagine the scale of the party. Therefore, Eliza had to be there two days in advance for preparations. She would overlook the size and details of the party, including all the arrangements. Eliza called Henry, but he hung up so she did not call again. The next day she drove back to the young family's old mansion. "Young madam." The housekeeper, Samuel Young, stepped forward with a smile and greeted Eliza. "Good morning Sam, where's Grandpa?" "Old master is in the greenhouse. You can rest in the living room first. I will inform the old m
"Babe, don't be afraid. Answer me." Fredrik beckoned her with a softer voice, it's like a candy wrapped in a poisoned wrapper. "..I..." Eliza was almost bewitched to answer. Still, she fought back and violently bit the tip of her tongue, and the pain brought her back to her senses. "Fredrik, don't you think this question is pointless? We're just hookup partners. All we need to do is enjoy each other on the bed, without involving any romantic feelings. If you can't afford to play the game, then I'm sorry, I'll find someone else." Eliza raised her head, refusing to allow herself to back down, and she bravely met Fredrik's terrifying eyes. After a moment of deadlock, Fredrik let out a dangerous smile and said, "A hookup partner? And you're going to find someone else if I can't afford to play the game?" "Yes." 'Eliza, you shouldn't back down now.' she urged herself. 'You can't be led by this bastard all the time. You have to put up a barrier or he'll eat you whole without any bones
Fredrik then gently picked up Eliza and carried her into a princess style before kissing her fondly on her forehead. Fredrik took a moment to stare at Eliza's beautiful face. There is a rare hint of tenderness in his eyes, invisible to anyone. He hid her face in his chest to make sure no one would recognize her when they left the private room. —It was already a few hours later when Eliza woke up dizzy. "Ouch!" She frowned as she felt her head ache. Eliza put her hand on her forehead to give it a little massage. A moment later, she turned her head to check her surroundings. 'Am I in a hotel suite?' "Are you awake now? Did you get enough sleep?"Eliza raised her head to see Fredrik standing at the door. He then walked towards her with a bowl of hangover soup in hand. Eliza looked at him with resentment in her eyes. She remembered that Fredrik made her drunk. But before she could start whining at him, Fredrik was already seen standing at the edge of the bed and offering her the
Now Eliza could only pray that time would pass faster.On the other hand, Henry was immersed in the sweetness of the past and was kind to her. He brought her food every now and then. In addition, he would remind her to eat slowly with a gentle voice and serve her well. "I'm full." Eliza put down her chopsticks after eating a few bites and said.Henry frowned and looked at her, "Your appetite decreased so much compared to last time. You should eat more.""I can not eat anymore." Eliza forced a smile and peeked at Fredrik out of the corner of her eye. Although he did not seem to look at her, she knew that his attention was on her. Everything she ate seemed to be stuck in her throat, which was terribly uncomfortable.Eliza suddenly got up.In Daniel and Henry's anxious and puzzled eyes, she said embarrassed, "I'm going to the bathroom. I drink too much and feel uncomfortable." She hurried out after speaking."This child still behaves recklessly even when she's grown up." said Daniel hel
Eliza wanted to monitor Fredrik to prevent him from saying things that should not be said, but she had no opportunity to do so. If she asked to go with them, it would only make Daniel suspicious. Therefore, she could only give up in the end. "Dad, uncle, I'm going first.""Okay, work hard." Daniel patted his daughter on the head and said with a smile."Dad, I'm not a child anymore," Eliza complained helplessly.Then she turned quickly and left without looking at Fredrik. For some reason, she always felt that she was childish in front of her father, so she did not want to let Fredrik see it. As for why, she had never thought so deeply about it.It was because Eliza was worried that Fredrik would deliberately say something to Daniel, that made her absent-minded all morning.On the other hand, Daniel and Fredrik had a nice conversation in the lounge on the top floor. Daniel knew Fredrik's abilities before they made contact, and after they got to know each other, Daniel was even more a
Boom.Eliza smiled scornfully when she heard the door slam shut.She would rather Henry never come back than meet him every day and fight endlessly with him.She really wants to sleep now that she is tired and exhausted.Later, after Eliza had taken a shower, she was surprised to discover that Henry had actually returned.He put the supper in his hand on the small coffee table in the bedroom with a cold face. Eliza just took a quick glance before she went to the dressing table and sat down to dry her hair with a hair dryer."I bought you a midnight snack.""And so?" Eliza said scornfully, "Should I be grateful for that? Henry, is it fun to give me a reward after punishment every time?"There is no denying that Eliza's questions made Henry feel guilty. He slammed the door and left. While driving, Henry accidentally noticed that Eliza's favorite shop by the side of the road was still open, so he went in to buy her some pastries. He thought Eliza would appreciate what he did, but he was
The driver was on the phone, "Yes, I went to check the old house. I bought it back a long time ago and never visited it. Okay, tomorrow..."His voice suddenly stopped as if something caught his attention."Hey Fredrik. Hello? Are you coming tomorrow?""Talk to you again." He hung up quickly.Fredrik drove the car closer to the sidewalk and slowed down. As he got closer, he was finally able to confirm that it was his little wildcat. Fredrik curled his lips when he remembered that Moore's villa was in the same area.Honk Honk.He honked deliberately. He saw that the despondent and pitiful Eliza quickly raised her head, and her eyes seemed to shine.She got up quickly and walked eagerly forward."Hey, is it convenient for me to hitch a ride?"As soon as Eliza stopped speaking, the window lowered.She was shocked for a moment when she saw Fredrik's face. The smile on her lips disappeared immediately."It's you! Why are you here?""Wouldn't you take the ride now that you know it's me?""O
The car drove slowly until they reached the front of the Moore family's villa. Eliza got off as soon as the car stopped.Daniel and his wife Elizabeth Howard waited at the front door to meet the couple. Elizabeth was glad to see both her daughter and her son-in-law together. The two rarely came to visit ever since their wedding, which made Elizabeth feel a little disappointed.Henry especially brought some presents. He handed Daniel a set of ivory chess boards, and as for Eliza's mother, Elizabeth, he gave her an expensive red jade necklace. Apparently Henry had put in some effort when choosing his gifts, which made Daniel & Elizabeth very happy.Eliza stood aside with a faint smile and watched Henry greet Daniel and Elizabeth politely.For a moment she felt that everything had gone back to before the marriage. At the time, Henry was so gentle when they returned home together, but now... everything was just a hypocritical illusion."Eliza, what's wrong? What are you thinking?""Nothi
Eliza felt, however, that Fredrik was a black-hearted bastard and was only good at teasing her. Can he surpass the current Young family in the future? Hmph, she would not believe it."Why? Don't you believe it?""No. I do not believe it." Eliza pouted.She did not think Fredrik could be so amazing.No matter what, she would not believe it."How about this? Make a bet with me and grant me a wish if you lose.""Ah, you're the worst, dad. I'm not going to bet with you. You're obviously cheating on me on purpose. The older, the wiser. How could I question your judgment?"She simply hated Fredrik, so she did not want to look up to him. She would not do anything that would increase the morale of others and ruin her own prestige."Haha, you silly girl." Daniel laughed.His daughter was his precious source of happiness, and he would be in a good mood as long as he was with her
Eliza sighed slightly when she heard the busy tone. Henry had hung up before she could say anything more.What could she do?She went up to the study to get the file Henry needed. After that, Eliza took her own things and left hurriedly.She did not want to be late for work, so she drove at full speed.Luckily, the morning rush had passed and there were only a few red lights on the road.However, she was still five minutes late when she arrived at Henry's company.She called Henry because she wanted his secretary to come and get the documents from her downstairs, but Henry refused in a harsh tone."The secretary is busy preparing materials for the meeting. Send it up now. Hurry up." Henry hung up unceremoniously after he had finished speaking.Eliza took a few deep breaths to resist the urge to throw the documents in the trash. She thought Henry might need the documents asap, and for her
