In the end, Paige went out through the backdoor of the kitchen to the garden. She strolled along while swiping through her phone.

A phone call came in while she was on the phone.

It was from Wendy.

Paige was surprised, but she took the call.

“Mom—”

“Come home with Chris tonight for dinner,” Wendy demanded.

Paige answered, “…Sure.”

Wendy hung up right after.

Paige furrowed her brows.

She did not want to go home for dinner.

Her parents were not fond of her anyway. Now that she and Chris were married, Wendy believed she had seduced Chris.

Yet, it was her family home. She had to go back.

After lunch, Chris and Paige went back to their room.

Paige looked at Chris.

Chris observed Paige. Paige had been glancing at him now and then while they were having breakfast. Something seemed to be on her mind.

“Yes?” Chris asked.

“…Mom wants us home for dinner,” Paige said. She stared at Chris, hoping he would refuse. That way, she could go alone.

Although she knew w

    Feeling resentful, Sierra forced a smile and said, “I’m happy things are going well for you. Is Chris… good to you?” Paige was speechless. She looked at Sierra. What an awkward question. How was Paige supposed to answer? Sierra was Chris’ ex-fiancée. Paige pondered on the right answer. Paige knew Sierra would be worried and blame herself if she told her that Chris was not good to her. Sierra would believe Chris was being unkind because of her.It was not an option to say Chris was good to her either. No woman could not accept her ex-fiancé being nice to other women. “Um… He’s alright,” Paige hesitantly replied. She could not go against her conscience and say that Chris was mean to her. Truth be told, while Chris was not extremely nice to her, at least he did not bully, hit, or yell at her. In fact, she believed Chris was decent to her. Chris would not buy her clothes and an expensive diamond ring if he wanted to be mean. Sierra could pick up on the reluctance i

    She did not know how to answer Page. “Why can’t you accept it? Chris belongs to your sister,” Wendy said. “But he’s my husband now,” Paige argued. “Have you fallen for Chris? Have you succumbed to the wealth and fortune of the Jewell family? You’re not going to give Chris back to your sister, are you?” Wendy questioned Paige angrily. Paige went silent. She did not fall for Chris or his family’s wealth and fortune. It was just that she and Chris had crossed the line. Could her sister continue to be with Chris, pretending like nothing happened? Would it not burden her sister? In fact, Sierra’s consent was unimportant. Paige never knew Chris well before this and did not know how he usually treated Sierra. Now, she found out that Chris barely had any feelings for Sierra. Sierra betrayed Chris, but Chris was barely concerned. He continued to work and live his life like usual, his mood unaffected by Sierra’s betrayal. Maybe what she saw was just the surface. However, Chri

    Chris enjoyed the soup Paige got him. Paige, however, was annoyed. Even after dinner, Sierra and Wendy did not return. So, Chris and Paige said goodbye to the Quirk family and went home. Chris was driving while Paige was in the passenger’s seat, looking at the man with a serious expression. Many thoughts flooded her mind. After some struggle, she finally asked, “Why did you marry me?” Back when Chris came to marry Sierra, someone went up to him with a parcel box. Inside the box were pictures of Sierra having sex with another man. Chris was so mad that he wanted to leave. Paige did not leave a moment to think. All she knew was she could not let Chris leave. If Chris left, the situation would snowball out of control. Then, before she knew it, she became the one who married Chris. She agreed to marry Chris because she wanted to protect the Quirk family. It was chaotic and sudden then. She did not consider the consequences after the wedding. All she had in mind was to

    No man liked to be tossed around like an item, especially a powerful man like Chris. “Of course I want to live a good life with you,” Paige said. She had to keep him happy for the sake of her life. “Hmph.” Chris scoffed. She did not know what the scoff meant. Was it a happy scoff or a contemptuous one? Not knowing what Chris meant, Paige dared not speak. What if she said something wrong and made him mad? “You don’t look like you want to live a good life with me,” Chris said all of a sudden. Paige blinked her eyes nervously. She looked at Chris, confused, wondering why he would say something like that.Did she not look like someone who wanted to spend the rest of her life with him? What gave him that impression? It was Chris who looked nothing like the part. He might be plotting some evil scheme to take revenge on herself. Before Paige could answer, Chris raised a brow and said, “What’s wrong? Do you not want to live a good life with me?” “No, it’s not like that

    So, that was what happened. “I think Tanya did it on purpose,” Annabelle said. “On purpose? What did you mean?” Paige asked. Annabelle tightened her lips as she hesitated. Then, she said, “Tanya’s trying to bribe us with money and a luxurious lifestyle because we are your roommates. As for what she’s trying to do, I have no idea. “However, I know she’s targeting you, or she wouldn’t have spent so much money on us. She must want something from us and eventually get to you.” Paige looked at Annabelle. She was curious why her roommate would warn her about Tanya. Had Tanya bribed only Millie and Lisa and not her? “She didn’t get to you?” Paige asked. Annabelle was stunned for a moment. Embarrassed, she said, “She did. She actually wanted to bribe me the most. You and I share the same dorm, are of the same age, and study the same course. If she wanted to do anything to you, I would be in a better position than the other two.” Paige nodded in agreement. “I don’t want to f

    However, since Chris has gotten married, Luna decided to respect her brother’s decision. Since Chris married Paige, Paige became her sister-in-law. No matter how she viewed Paige inside, she was willing to treat Paige kindly for the sake of her brother. With that, she viewed her mother’s actions as inappropriate. Now that Chris and Paige were married, no matter how much Luna’s mother resented Paige, her mother would not be able to change anything. Judging from Chris’ attitude, he neither liked nor disliked Paige. Yet, he was okay with living a life with her. What her mother did to Paige would indirectly put Chris in a difficult position. “What is inappropriate about that?” Ann said. She disliked Paige. In fact, she disliked Sierra as well. If not for Chris’ stubborn attitude, she would have never let her son be engaged with that kind of woman. She always had an ideal candidate for a daughter-in-law. “Paige is Chris’ wife. Please, Mother, for the sake of Chris, you sho

    “Not in the mood to sleep?” Chris asked. Paige was speechless. That was a dangerous question to answer. “I’m going to bed.” Paige instantly shut her eyes tight. Chris had no words. Ha. She sure acted like a child. Chris went back to sleep. Paige, however, kept her eyes closed. She was too afraid to open them and be met with his gaze, which made her weak in the knees.Soon, Paige drifted off to sleep. …Paige opened her eyes in the morning and looked at the sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling window.

Somehow, she felt a sense of relief as if she had escaped a big one.Paige sat up and breathed a sigh of relief when she did not see Chris. She had no idea how she should face him.

    “Chris…” Unable to take it anymore, Sierra ran to Chris and held onto his hands tightly. She cried in tears. “I was wrong, Chris. I know I was. Please give me another chance. I really love you, Chris.” Sierra wailed out loud. She was lost in James’ tenderness. However, despite his affection, he was not as extraordinary as Chris. Due to Chris's indifference, she was tempted by James's tenderness and consideration. If Chris had shown her even a little concern or affection, she would not have strayed to James.Paige was speechless. ‘Well, this is awkward.’Here was her sister, pinning after her husband in tears. Paige did not know how to deal with the situation. So, she just stood there. Chris did not pull away from Sierra’s grip. Instead, he looked at Paige. Paige was dumbfounded by the staring. Why was Chris looking at her? What was she supposed to do about it? Chris turned to Paige and asked, “Don’t you have anything to say about it?” What did Paige have to say a

    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

    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
