Pregnancy made a woman's body more delicate and sensitive. Sometimes, a moment of anger could lead to serious consequences.

Paige smiled, saying, "Don't worry, Sierra. I'm fine."

Sierra gently patted Paige's hand, offering silent comfort.

"Paige... I'm sorry," Bob looked at Paige apologetically. "I never thought Linda would do such a thing."

Paige looked at Bob and asked, "Really?"

Bob hesitated for a moment, puzzled by Paige's question. Did she know something?

Sierra also gazed at Bob, suspicion brewing. Had Bob really not known?

Bob and Linda were now the closest of companions. How could he be clueless to what the person sharing the same bed with him every day was planning?

Moreover, Sierra recalled Bob’s strange behavior tonight.

When Chris was drunk, Paige wanted to take him to their room. Yet, Bob insisted on talking to Paige. The father and daughter had been family for over twenty years; what could they not discuss at any other time? Why bring it up, then?

So why not me?”Nina was truly unwilling to accept it and could not comprehend why it could not be her.What was wrong with her? What did they have that she did not? She loved Chris more than anyone else."It’s because Chris doesn't like you," Russel said. "His lack of affection for you is the most important reason.""Why, Dad? Why doesn't he like me? Am I not pretty or talented enough? Or is it because I’m not loving enough?" Nina asked, crying.Russel felt a pang of sadness as he looked at his devastated daughter.

She could turn the tables on Bob, exposing the truth about his deception. However, only Bob could help her now. If he did not, she would be in deep trouble.…When Chris returned to the hotel, Sierra was still in the room, keeping Paige company. Paige looked at Chris with concern and asked, "Honey, how was it? Everything okay?"Chris replied indifferently, "Why would anything happen to me? The ones with issues are Linda and Bob, no?"Paige thought about it and said with a hint of grievance, "You didn't tell me your plan. When Bob and I entered the room and heard the moans, I was really scared for a moment that it was you inside."Chris raised an eyebrow. "You coul

    Despite his stern appearance, he always had a penchant for making off-color jokes. Did he not realize that as a big shot, cracking inappropriate jokes could damage his image?"Look... I've invested so much in you emotionally, financially, and physically. However, you're not concerned about my feelings or my body but only interested in the money." Chris looked at Paige with a disappointed expression, shaking his head."Sigh…” He then took another long sigh. “I've made a mistake after all.”Paige was left speechless by his words. "I wasn’t thinking about your money," she defended herself."Then why did you immediately think about taking photos, shooting videos, and filing for divorce to split our assets?" Chris questioned."It’s about fighting for my legal rights and interests," Paige explained."Why only think about splitting money and not our bodies?" Chris retorted.Paige froze and looked at Chris in surprise. "Bodies need to be split too? How do we do that?"She dared n

Sierra's complexion turned even paler, watching James."James..."James said coldly, "I'll go check on Nina first."After he left, Sierra's expression changed. The sadness on her face transformed into mockery and disdain.‘Well...‘Go ahead and check on her.‘Seeing but not being able to possess is the most painful.’If only Chris were not Paige's husband.

    Not to mention that they were not even biological siblings. Maria could not help but notice something off between them. Yet, she wondered if she might be reading too much into it. After all, James and Nina had not done anything out of the ordinary all these years.Considering James was now married and Nina had feelings for Chris, Maria tried convincing herself that it was just a moment of comfort between siblings. However, their intimacy, especially at their age, felt abnormal.Watching them, Maria reasoned it might be Nina's sadness that prompted James to console her. Although they had a good relationship, they had always maintained boundaries. It must be Maria's imagination running wild."James... thank you," Nina said, leaning gently on James.James smiled warmly. "Silly girl, no need to thank me. We're family, the closest people in the world."Nina nodded lightly in James's embrace. “Mm."Just then, a knock on the door interrupted the scene.

It's impossible to say I won't have anyone waiting for me for the rest of my life."Chris looked at Paige, silent.As soon as Chris did not speak, Paige’s heart became uneasy.Why was Chris not saying anything? Perhaps Chris was angry. Why, though? Was everything not fine just now?"Is there someone waiting for you?" Chris finally spoke amidst Paige's various anxieties."In the future, if we're not together, there surely will be."She was such a lively, gentle, and adorable woman. It was only normal that men would wait for her, right?Chris raised an eyebrow. "Are you so sure?"“Sure about what?"Chris said, "That men will wait for you.""Can't that be certain?

    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

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

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.

    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?"

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.
