Paige was perplexed, but it made sense in a way.

"Shelly wants you to provoke the boss, to make him dislike you, and create conflict between you two. She aims to take advantage of the situation," said Gloria.

Gloria, having gained experience early in life working in nightclubs, had encountered all sorts of people, so she easily saw through Shelly's cunning plans.

Only then did Paige realize that Shelly had such intentions. It did seem like something Shelly would do. People could be incredibly complicated creatures.

Gloria continued to caution Paige, "Madam, our boss is pretty headstrong. If he wants to help the Quirks make money, you won't need to say a word. If he doesn't want to, no matter how hard you try, he won't change his mind."

Paige nodded. "I understand.”

She knew Gloria was looking out for her. The relationship between her family and Chris was indeed a tricky one. Having Chris help her family make money did not seem fair, and it put Chris in a difficult spot.

    He always wondered how a man could like that kind of behavior.Yet now, he watched as Paige spoke in a high-pitched voice, flirting with him, and surprisingly, he liked it. He really liked that side of Paige.Finally, he could understand those men.Chris put down the documents, stood up, and said to Paige, "Let's go."Paige looked at Chris, taken aback.Was it just... that simple?She did not think she had not put much effort into flirting. All she did was follow what she had seen in videos, and her attempt at flirting was stiff and awkward.However, Chris seemed to like it. Was flirting really that effective?Paige started to understand something. Sure enough, women who knew how to flirt had it easier.It was time for her to level up her flirting skills.… Paige and Chris returned home and had dinner. As soon as they got back to their room, the phone rang.It was a call from Bob.Paige knew why her father was calling, and she glanced at Chris, who noticed the screen disp

    Next to the recliner, there was a small, elegant table, which held a tray of fruit snacks and beverages prepared by the servants for Paige. Sipping on juice and scrolling through her phone, she basked in the sunlight and gentle breeze, feeling utterly content.Days like these were truly wonderful.As Pierre entered the gates of the Jewell Family estate, this was the scene that greeted him. The wind tousled Paige's long hair and the flowing dress, making her look exceptionally beautiful. Pierre approached her."Paige," he called with a smile.Paige glanced at him and asked, her tone indifferent, "What's up?"Initially, her impression of Pierre had been quite positive. Later, when he had clearly seen Shelly framing her and did not step up to clear her name, her opinion of him had soured. From then on, she held a grudge against Pierre.Perhaps it was not entirely his fault. After all, Pierre had feelings for Shelly. So, naturally, his loyalty leaned toward her. While Paige cou

    Bob gazed at Sierra and said, "No need."He was worried that Sierra's involvement might further anger Chris.Sierra bit her lip, finding it difficult to say, "Chris... It might be because of me that he doesn't want to cooperate with the Quirk family. This is my fault... I'll go and apologize to Chris."Bob looked at Sierra. He knew what Sierra was thinking. She believed that Chris still had feelings for her. So, if she played the role of a pitiful person in front of him, he might soften and forgive her.However, it was clear that Chris no longer had any feelings for Sierra. He even seemed to dislike her. If Sierra went to beg Chris, it would only make things worse."Dad…" Sierra looked at Bob with teary eyes.Bob wanted to scold her. However, he could not bring himself to do it. After all, she was his beloved daughter, whom he had pampered and had high hopes for since childhood."Sierra," Bob said, “Chris is married to Paige now. As Paige's older sister, you should bless her

    "It's nothing,” Bob said.However, Paige noticed it. He was still panting, as if he had been running, breathing heavily and gasping continuously."Oh... Chris asked you to prepare funds," Paige said.Bob did not react immediately. He asked, "Prepare funds?""Yeah," Paige said. "Prepare funds to invest in the Flower Bay Project."Bob was momentarily stunned, then ecstatic.Investing in the Flower Bay? Did Chris agree to let the Quirk family in on the project? He had almost given up hope, thinking Chris would not lend a hand to the Quirk family. However, now, everything had turned around."Paige..." Bob adjusted his mood and said, "You've done well. Please tell Chris that I will prepare the funds.""Sure.” Paige hung up the phone.Just before hanging up, she seemed to hear a woman's voice.Was it her mother?It did not sound like her. However, voices on the phone always sounded a bit different from real life.…Bob did not return home until nearly dawn.When he arrived ho

    Gloria slid her chair over to Paige, showing concern. "Madam, why didn't you come yesterday?"Paige hesitated before replying, "I wasn't feeling well yesterday, so I stayed home."Gloria nodded understandingly."Paige," Shelly said with a smile, "the project in Flower Bay is truly promising. If the Quirk family is interested, I could ask my father to talk to Chris about it?"Paige smiled and replied, "No need. My father has already decided to invest in the Flower Bay project."Shelly was taken aback. Bob had decided to invest in the Flower Bay project? In all of Hevensford, countless people wanted to participate in that project. Who was Bob to make such a decision?Shelly could not help but wonder if Chris had persuaded him. After all, Bob had no real influence on the Flower Bay project. So, it must have been Chris who gave him the green light.Shelly considered how significant it was for the Quirk family to be involved in this project and what message it sent to the world.

    Chris gave a faint, almost teasing smile.Paige was speechless.Was Chris actually smiling? What was so funny?"Relax," Chris said casually. "Even if the Quirk family goes bankrupt, you still have me. I'll take care of you."Paige was at a loss for words. That was not the point. Paige wanted to say something more, but Chris interrupted, "Let's eat."Although his tone was light, there was an underlying authority in it.So, Paige did not dare say anything else. She lowered her head and started eating slowly.As she ate, she began to understand something. If the Jewell family was willing to invest so much money, why should she be afraid?Even though the Jewell family was wealthy, they could not have easily come up with 15 billion dollars, either."I..." Paige wanted to say, "I understand”. However, before she could get the words out, Chris suddenly put food into her mouth.With her mouth full, she looked at Chris in surprise. Why was he feeding her all of a sudden?Chris st

    “Madam, I only drink with them," said Gloria."Hmm.” Paige nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you."Gloria was left puzzled this time. She looked at Paige and asked, "Thank me for what, Ma'am?"Paige smiled and replied, "Thank you for helping secure many business deals for Chris."Gloria looked at Paige, dumbfounded for a few seconds, then smiled.She finally understood why the usually aloof vice president treated her differently.It turned out that Madam was such a kind and lovable person. Who would not love her?Before Sierra, Shelly, and the others knew about her past, they all looked down on her, sneering at her as a shameless and dirty woman.However, Madam did not, nor did the Vice President.That was why they were the perfect match."Madam, thank you," Gloria said with a smile.Paige was at a loss for words. Thank her for what? She had not done anything for Gloria."So... Madam, if you and the vice president ever have any relationship issues, you can always consu

    Paige had not even given birth yet. Her figure had not lost shape, and her looks had not turned ugly. Yet, he was already getting tired of her? Was his novelty wearing off too quickly?Paige felt a little sad. She was still young and beautiful, with smooth, fair skin, but Chris was already bored. What would happen a few years down the road, when her collagen started to deplete, and she was no longer as youthful and attractive? Would Chris still want her?Paige quietly made a plan in her mind. If Chris truly grew tired of her and wanted a divorce, she wondered if he would reclaim the engagement ring and the house he had given her. If Chris took them back, she'd have to rely on her own resources. Otherwise, she could find a job and support herself, even without depending on her family.It seemed like she needed to start saving money. How would she go about it, though? In the past, when she was at home, her family gave her some pocket money, which she managed to save. Chris d

    The receptionist did not reply. Gloria: [You're in trouble. I can't save you now.]The receptionist: [No, I haven't eaten it yet.]Gloria: [Good thing you haven't. I'm coming down.]As soon as the receptionist received Gloria's message, Gloria stepped out of the elevator.Upon reaching the front desk and noticing the bag of strawberry laces opened on the desk, Gloria glared at the receptionist. "You said you hadn't eaten it!"The receptionist looked a little guilty. "I just opened it and haven't had a chance to take one yet."Gloria sneered. "Haven't had a chance? You sound like you regret it."“I don't.""You can't afford this cup of bubble tea. If you did take one, watch out… You might lose your job."The receptionist paused in surprise. "Is it expensive?"Gloria nodded. "It is."“Good thing I didn't take one," the receptionist mumbled. Gloria rolled her eyes. If they were not on the same team, she would not even bother saving her."Why is this bag of strawberry laces

    Chris chuckled. "Really?"Paige's face turned slightly red. She felt embarrassed saying that, and it felt like Chris did not believe her. However, she bit the bullet and nodded. "Yeah, really."Chris smiled and said, "Well then, when you miss me next time, don't just think about it because thinking won't do you any good. When you miss me or care about me, just send me a message or call to check in. After all, I can’t read minds. Also, if you want to hug me, just hug me. Don't hold Hunter in your arms and say you want to hug me. That's just hypocritical."Paige faltered. Hug him when she wanted to hug him? Thanks, but she did not want to hug him. She could easily pick up Hunter, but could she lift Chris so easily? She was not that strong, to begin with."Remember. From now on, when you think of me, send me a message. Ask me if I've eaten, what I've eaten, if I'm tired from work, what I'm doing, or tell me what you're thinking about. Don't keep it all to yourself," Chris said wit

    What did he take her for?Besides, what could a woman do with photos? She was not one of those perverted men who did some creepy stuff with women’s photos."Nothing worth admiring?" Chris raised an eyebrow.Paige nodded. "Yeah, they’re nothing worth admiring."Indeed, there was nothing worth admiring about the photos."Ha!” Chris snickered.Paige remained silent and thought, ‘Here comes the snickering again.’"You don’t mean what you say," Chris remarked.Paige frowned. "What did I say that implies otherwise? You're a strange one. You're right here in front of me. Why would I need to admire the photos?"Chris grinned. "So you don't want to admire the photos, but you want to admire me, a living person."Paige blushed slightly, feeling embarrassed. She did not mean that, but what she just said seemed to imply exactly that."How would you want to admire me?" Chris teased.Admire was such an intriguing word.Paige blushed harder. "How else can I admire you? Just by looking,

    Before Hunter was born, Chris was the absolute darling of the family. His grandfather favored him, and his parents loved him dearly.However, Hunter's arrival had changed everything. The elders in the family revolved around Hunter all day long. Zander’s first question upon waking up each morning was about Hunter, followed by Ann cuddling Hunter, calling him her darling, and so on.It seemed like everyone had forgotten about Chris.How could Chris, who had always been so cherished, accept that?Chris's expression stiffened as if his thoughts had been unexpectedly revealed, his eyes flickering momentarily.Paige chuckled and said, "Are you seriously competing with a child for attention? Besides, you've been pampered by the family for so many years. Hunter has only been pampered for a few days."Chris retorted coldly, "I'm not competing with him."Paige did not buy it for a second. She smiled and said, "Sure, you're not competing with him. You're just afraid we'll spoil Hunter."A

    Before, Paige could not understand people showing off their babies and wondered why they would go crazy posting their kids on social media. Now, she got it. She found her kid to be the cutest in the world and could not help but snap his photos and post them on her social media platforms to share him with others, hoping for compliments and praise for her little one.However, she also understood that posting too much could annoy people. Hence, she restrained herself to only posting once a day and made sure to fit in a couple of photos!That was her absolute limit!She felt uneasy if she did not post her baby for a day. Then, when she saw her friends' comments praising her little one, she felt happy and proud, like they were getting closer as friends.Indeed, becoming a mom had changed her mindset.Chris, who was watching Paige show off their baby on social media, was even more dissatisfied!

    After what felt like ages, Ava lay on the hotel's large bed, staring blankly at the ceiling as the sound of rushing water filled her ears. Niel was in the shower. After releasing his pent-up emotions, he headed straight for the shower. Meanwhile, she lay there, her body aching. She did not want to move a muscle because every movement brought pain.Niel was thrilled with the new experience, but Ava was suffering. She was starting to regret getting involved with Niel. He was going overboard with satisfying his physical needs, and she feared that if things continued like that, Niel might end up causing her harm or maybe even unintentionally ending her life.

    Pierre fell silent, pondering Shelly's words carefully. Upon reflection, he found Shelly's proposal to be pretty reasonable and entirely feasible. If he were to wait until Shelly entered prison to serve her sentence, he could break up with her afterward. Once his relationship with Shelly ended, his parents would not be as angry. Even if there were some constraints preventing them from openly helping him, they could still assist him discreetly. After all, he was their son, who shared the same blood with them. His parents could not possibly abandon him entirely and let him fend for himself. By lowering himself in front of his parents, he believed they would not neglect him. By then, acquiring the five million dollars would not be too difficult.Shelly watched Pierre, not pressing him to respond. She believed Pierre knew what choice to make. Five million might seem like an astronomical figure, but for the second son of the Alfonsos, it was not much.After much deliberation

    She looked at the evil smile on Chris' face, and it all came back to her.Did Chris Intentionally take Hunter to the guest room to hand him over to the nanny so that it would make it easier for him to do what he wanted? What a scumbag! However, since it was something she had personally agreed to, she would not back out.Paige did not resist Chris, and a long time later, she collapsed on the bed. She felt like she should have taken care of Hunter and not fallen for Chris' tricks.Taking care of a child was not as exhausting!She was too tired to even move her fingers.The next day, Paige slept until late morning and then got up to go down for breakfast.When Ann saw Paige, she asked with concern, "Paige, didn't you sleep well last night?"Paige looked really worn out."Didn't Hunter sleep with the nanny last night?"

    Even if she offered her sincerity, Chris would not appreciate it, so what else could she offer? "Is money the only thing you have? Do you have nothing else besides money?" Chris said.He thought she was truly clueless. Even after being married for so long and having a child together, did she not know what he wanted?However, Paige was indeed puzzled. Besides money, what else did she have? What else could she have?Chris looked her up and down, speechless. Paige might not have understood what he meant before, but she did now. He meant that although she did not have money, she still had a young body.It seemed all Chris lusted was her body."I’m still recovering," Paige said with a slight blush on her face. She knew Chris had been patient for a long time. They barely had any intimacy during the last trimester of her pregnancy, but there was nothing she could do. She did not want to refuse him, but her body would not allow it.Chris glanced at Paige and said, "We can try other
