She seemed lost in her thoughts until she decided to went back to the castle. When Kendra got back to the castle, it was late at night. The castle was so quiet. Kendra sadly walked to her room. She kept recalling Marga’s words. Why exactly did they want her back? Was it because of her engagement? Did Michael say something about it? Kendra felt so annoyed, can’t figure out what was the reason behind the sudden change of her so-called family.
“Lendon, don’t do that.”
Suddenly, Kendra heard a woman grumbling in a flirty manner. She stopped walking and saw a room with lights on. She walked to it curiously and saw what was happening inside through the door.
Lendon was holding an enchanting beauty and flirting with her. How could she bear to see this scene again? Kendra rubbed her forehead and left quietly. She didn’t

A moment of silence subsisted between them. Lendon waited for her answer while staring at her thoughtfully. Kendra didn’t expect that Lendon would notice her eyes. She cried too sadly on her way back here. Kendra hesitated and didn’t know how to explain. She doesn’t want Lendon to know how painful she felt when her father’s last words before she left home after dinner reminded her that she’s now totally an outcast. “What happened while you were at home?” Lendon’s voice came again. He knew something must happen. This woman was really so weak, he thought. “Nothing.” Kendra looked away, trying to hide her frustration. She didn’t dare to look at Lendon’s questioning gaze. “
In just a few minutes, she was dressed up and went down quickly. Lendon gave her a naughty smile when they climbed to the car. Kendra was forced to go out with him. They went to the CBD building. After they got off, Lendon told Kendra to follow him. She couldn’t understand why he had to bring her into this place.Many senior managers had been waiting for Lendon. Then, finally, he walked into a vast building, and his underlings were briefing him about a specific situation.“Mr. Martin, if we open it fully, we can make profits within six months. So this project will definitely be successful.”“Yes, Mr. Martin. We just need to make an advertisement by hiring popular actors or models. Then, we make sure everyone knows this place, and we can invest more.”
She walked silently, head dropped. During Kendra’s way back, she seemed distracted and almost hit a pillar.“Be careful, Miss Miller.” Curtis reminded her instantly. He wanted to ask her about the two women he saw earlier; however, he’s afraid she’d misunderstood him.“Oh, thank you.” Kendra finally came back to her senses. She gave him a gentle smile.“Miss Miller, are they your sister and stepmother? The people we just met?” Curtis summoned enough courage to ask her.“Yes.” Kendra smiled bitterly and nodded.“I shouldn’t have judged your family, but they went too far. Why do you…” Curtis paused for a while and sighed. He h
She was heartbroken at this moment to pay attention to anybody else. Kendra didn’t bother to raise her head. Why are people so mean to her? She hadn’t done anything wrong to others. She felt aggrieved and can’t help but sulk.The man walked to Kendra and also squatted. “Are you okay?” He asked worriedly.“Don’t come here.” Kendra covered her face and cried. She didn’t want anyone to see her being so weak. She always appeared tough despite suffering for a very long time. No one is with her for many years, even her own father despised her.“Don’t worry. I will help you.” The man’s gentle voice came again, and even without looking at him, Kendra knew it was Michael.
She wanted to ask Curtis why Lendon decided to bring her to the party; however, she chose not to speak her mind. Kendra sat in the car and waited for Lendon.“Mr. Martin.” A bodyguard greeted him and opened the car door.Lendon got on and sat down next to Kendra with his black suit. He even looked stunning, and Kendra couldn’t help but admire this man.“Why did you take so long?” Lendon frowned, staring at her elegant appearance.Kendra didn’t want any argument, lowered her head, and in a low voice, she uttered, “I am sorry. It was my fault. I didn’t saw Curtis’s call earlier,”Lendon stared at Kendra and said nothing. He was happy to see her like this.
The woman stood rooted on the ground and stared at him in horror. Lendon didn’t care about others at all. He grabbed Kendra’s arm and warned, “If you run away again, I won’t spare you.”Kendra felt embarrassed and looked at Joyce. She hated Lendon this time for humiliating her in front of others.Everyone saw what happened and discussed it faintly. And it even grew louder that made Kendra clenched her fists, her fingernails dug into her palms.Joyce also felt so angry when Lendon ignored her. She was never treated this way! She glared at Kendra and almost went mad. What special with this woman that caught Lendon’s attention?“Lendon, I don’t feel good. I will wait for you in the car. This lady seems to have something
He called her name several times, but still no answer from her. He lost patience. Lendon grabbed the door, trying to open it, but he found it was locked. So he had to keep on knocking and shouted, “Kendra, what are you doing? Come out!”No one responded. Lendon got impatient and frowned, shouting, “Kendra, open the fucking door!”What was Kendra doing? Lendon lost his temper and shouted again, “I will break into your room if you don’t open the door!” He threatened, but deep inside his heart, he was nervous.Still, no one answered him. Lendon stared at the door and suddenly had a terrible thought. Did Kendra commit suicide because she was desperate? It was possible, Kendra was a strong woman, but she could be weak sometimes. Thinking about Kendra lying on the ground wit
Curtis walked out of the kitchen and brought another food. “Sir, the chef prepared some new dishes today.” He gently said, trying to please him.“Wow, they look delicious!” Kendra said happily and wanted to have a try on it.However, Lendon stopped her and tasted first. “What the fuck? They taste like rubbish!” Lendon growled in anger and threw his fork away, “Ask the chef to come here!”Soon, everyone held their breath, and no one dared to say a word. The maidservants were shivering and stood rooted on the ground.Kendra didn’t know what was wrong, but she could feel Lendon’s anger.“Mr. Martin.” The chef stood next to Lendon and nervously said.
Anne was worried about seeing Kendra like this.Kendra smiled and nodded. She had some porridge and asked confusedly. “It is strange. I just looked at the mirror and found there is a scar around my neck. How did this happen?”Hearing Kendra’s words, a strange look came over Anne’s face immediately. She felt restless and looked away.Kendra seemed to notice something and asked, “Ann, what’s up?”“Miss Miller, I don’t know if I should tell you something.” Anne hesitated. She was not sure if she should say that.“It’s fine. What is it?” Kendra tried to convince Anne.“Your scar is….&rdquo
Tonight is another passionate night for them.It was cool the next morning. Kendra got tired and slept in Lendon’s arms last night. Suddenly, she felt cold and woke up.Lendon was still asleep. Kendra looked down and saw her body naked, covered with red marks. Lendon got the whole quilt with him. Damn! He didn’t leave her a quilt at all!Kendra coughed and rubbed her nose.Lendon woke up and looked at Kendra blankly. “What’s up?” He asked.“It’s cold.” Kendra glared at Lendon and took the quilt. She coughed again.“Did you catch a cold?” Lendon held Kendra and asked. He just woke up, so his voice sounded sexy this e
She couldn’t help but praise him. Indeed, the barbecue tasted good. She wanted to have more.Kendra went back to Lendon and stared at him. Her mouth was even watering. “Lendon…”“No,” Lendon said as soon as Kendra spoke. He knew what she wanted, but he smiled and said, “You can’t take more.”“But I am hungry.” Kendra blinked her eyes and complained like a child. She even pouted her lips.Lendon suddenly got excited. Did Kendra know that she could turn him on easily?“I am almost done. Do you want to eat them?” Lendon stared at Kendra and began to tease her.Kendra nodded quickly.
Startled, Kendra turned the app off immediately and asked, “Who is that?”“Miss Miller, Mr. Martin is ready. He is waiting for you downstairs.” A maid’s voice rang outside her door.Kendra took a deep breath and recalled that she agreed to go camping with Lendon today. She coughed and said, “Okay, I know,” Kendra looked at her phone and sighed.She had to listen to the recording next time. So Kendra went downstairs and got in the car.This time, Lendon and her would go alone.Curtis chose the place for them. He said it has beautiful scenery.Kendra looked outside the window and was lost in thought. She wondered what Marga would say n
Kendra tried to control her temper. She lowered her head and remained silent. She tried her best not to burst into anger.“Mom, calm down. Kendra just comes to see dad. No matter what happened, she is my sister.” Bianca argued with her mother.“Shut up! Bianca, go back to your room.” Marga shouted.“Mom!” Bianca tried to say something again, but Marga blocked her.“I said go to your room!” Marga glared at her daughter, her eyes blazing with anger.Bianca has no reason to stay. She gave a quick glance to Kendra, and her eyes were full of sympathy. After Bianca left, Marga glanced at Kendra and told her maid, “Go to the storage room and bring the garbage that we&
She remained silent and couldn’t find words to say. She was overwhelmed by Anne’s revelation. If this was true, she needed to give justice to her mom.“Miss Miller, do you remember that after Mrs. Miller passed away, Mr. Miller sent you to your’ grandparents’. As a matter of fact, he didn’t intend to bring you back. However, Mrs. Miller’s testament had your name, so he had no other choice but to take you back.” Anne told her, staring at her with sadness.“What?” Kendra raised her head and stared back at Anne, “How do you know that?” Kendra couldn’t really accept the truth.“All Mrs. Miller’s servants knew the truth. Marga argued with Mr. Miller for days about whether they should bring you back or not. But at the end, they
He deepened his kissed and held Kendra in his arms tightly. Lendon didn’t stop until he was satisfied. The hot water in the tub became cold gradually. After a long time, Lendon finally let Kendra go, and they walked out of the bathroom.They had dinner in their room tonight since Kendra couldn’t walk properly. She could only sit on the bed. Lendon was with her all the time. He didn’t allow her to do anything and insisted on feeding her.“Lendon, I can help myself.” Kendra tried to persuade him.She was not a disabled person at all, but he kept treating her like one.“No.” Lendon refused, “Oh, by the way, I sent Anne to the hospital already.” he suddenly uttered.
Half an hour later, several cars passed Kendra one by one, and she could only walk as slowly as possible. She knew she couldn’t walk back. It was impossible. What should she do? Kendra thought for a while and tried to get help from passing cars, but none of them stopped to let her in. Kendra had to continue to walk. She didn’t expect that anyone would help her. Soon, her ankles got swollen.“Shit!” Kendra cursed and sat down on the road. As she took her phone out and wondered who she could call, a car stopped in front of her. Kendra raised her head and saw Lendon put the window down and stare at her.Looking at his face, Kendra felt so angry. Why did he come back?“Miss Miller, please get in.” Curtis got off and invited her. He walked to her and wanted to help her stand up.
Suddenly she was shocked to hear Anne’s words. Kendra felt confused.“If it were not for her scheme, I wouldn’t have left. I thought she just wanted to fire some old employees, but it turned out that she intended to get rid of Mrs. Miller and you, one by one.” Anne’s face turned gloomy, and she gritted her teeth.“What are you talking about, Anne? I don’t understand.” Anne’s words added more confusion to Kendra. What really happened in the past? She was still naive in those younger days, clueless about the things that had happened.“Miss Miller, it was not an accident. Someone planned it.” Anne stared at Kendra, an apparent anger filling her voice.“What?!” Kendra asked shockingly.
