The secretary stood by the roadside alone, her hand patting her chest, looking a little shaken.

'I must have offended Xavier with what I said,' she thought as she sighed helplessly.

She knew Xavier was not someone to make an enemy out of—his reservoir of unpredictable schemes and plots knew no bounds, and he had no compunction in using them against his foes. The secretary was certain she had just doomed herself into becoming his mark, but honestly, she rather that than do anything that could

    “Fine? You literally went through gastric irrigation! The doctor had said, explicitly, that you’ve come down with a very severe case of food poisoning... God, I should have sent you to the hospital last night! How could I be so stupid?! I even thought you were just coming down with common digestive discomfort or something…”Her eyes were red again. Guilt was punishing her.Damon sighed helplessly. He considered her with a gaze so soft as if he was coddling her with looks alone. “It’s not your

    ‘Silly goose. It’s such an obvious hint, and she still can’t see it.’Damon felt exasperated. He pointed at his lips again and pouted.He looked strangely adorable. Jeanette was taken aback. She laughed at his childish antics.“What are you doing? You look so silly. Aren’t your lips tired from doing that?” Jeanette asked with a smile.Damon was very exasperated. ‘How’d I end up marrying such a silly wife? I’m not even hinting anymore. I’m making it extremely obvious!’He sighed. ‘Looks like I’ll have to make the first move, or this silly little thing won't understand the meaning of romance at all.’He had no choice but to crook his finger at her in exasperation.Jeanette moved closer toward him, widening her large, naive eyes. “What is it?”Damon crooked his finger again. “Come closer, I have a secret to tell you.”Jeanette wasn’t suspicious of him at all. She continued moving closer to him innocently as her eyes filled with anticipation.Damon curved his lips. He looked like

    Jeanette ran out of the hospital ward, looking very red in the face. She ran to the first floor like a headless fly, gasping for air.‘Oh my God, I’m useless. My husband has been by my side for so many years. We’re an old married couple who’s been keeping each other company every moment of the day. He’s only kissed me once, so how could I have become so infatuated? Jeanette Leighton, why are you always embarrassing yourself in front of Damon?’She smacked her bright red face, still unable to contain herself from reliving that amazing kiss.She pinched her cheek and mumbled to herself shyly, “Jeanette Leighton, you perverted woman!” Suddenly, she felt a gentle pat on her shoulder and jumped in fright. Then, she quickly turned around.She turned around and came face to face with Elias’ familiar face. However, there was no trace of his familiar smile. He looked very downcast today and had a very deep frown. This was a stark contrast from his usual self, the optimistic playboy. “El

    Jeanette stared exasperatedly at the fake casanova in front of her. She thought she was naive when it came to romance, yet she never expected that someone else would be more naive than her.“Elias, only you would call Mimi crazy. Don’t you know that even though she’s now a C-list actress and isn’t as popular as she used to be, she’s still voted as the most desirable woman online? A lot of men yearn for her because of her beauty, and you think you’d never fall for her?”Jeanette shook her head in exasperation and stared at him resentfully. She had always thought that Elias was a smart man, but little did she know that he was a complete newbie when it came to love.Elias continued to shake his head. “This… This isn’t possible. You must be mistaken…”He never considered Mimi as a prospective love interest. He always thought that he would never love anyone else except Jeanette. So how could this be? Him and Mimi? It was… too weird.However, at the same time, he felt a strange sense of

    Mimi shook her head. “No, Jeanette. You must be mistaken. He’s never even liked me. I’m nothing but a foolish girl who’s always been in love with him, to him. I’m nothing to him.”“No, Mimi,” Jeanette said.She was anxious to tell Mimi that Elias was in love with her. It’s just that he was an idiot and wasn’t even aware of his own feelings for her.Unfortunately, Mimi was in a horrible mood. She wasn’t even listening to Jeanette and immediately cut her off. “Jeanette, you don’t have to make

    Jeanette quickly pulled out her phone. “Mimi, I’m sure you’re not aware of what’s happened while you were unconscious, right?”Mimi was apprehensive. “What happened?”“Looks like Elias hasn’t told you. You’ve been the hottest topic for a long time. Even though news of you has been negative at first, I’ve heard that thanks to Elias’ help, you were found innocent, and you’re popular again. A lot of people online have turned into your fans, even the ones that hated you. A lot of them have even si

    Mimi shook her head bitterly. “You have no idea, Jeanette. I would be insanely happy if I encountered a situation like this a few months ago. Then, I’d be filled with fanciful thoughts such as ‘Have my feelings finally moved Elias? Has he fallen for me?’ But now… I’m too afraid of indulging in that fantasy anymore.”“Why? I thought you loved him?” Jeanette asked apprehensively. She had witnessed Mimi’s love for Elias over the past few years. How could such deep love be given up over a sudden whim?Mimi teared up and sighed. “Jeanette, you can probably understand how it feels to be constantly filled with anticipation, only to be disappointed, right? It’s not that I don’t want to keep loving him. It’s just that it’s exhausting to remain in unrequited love. I feel as if I can’t hold on much longer. I’ve been blindly giving myself to him, but he’s never given me any response. I’m not an important person to him”Jeanette felt a pang in her heart. She understood how Mimi felt and knew how

    ‘Me? In love with Mimi? He’s the second person to say that today. It’s like they’re all under some kind of spell as if they know my love life like the back of their hands. But how is that possible? I’m in love with Jeanette. This happened from the moment we met at school. I’ve been in love with her for many years. I’ve been by her side when she was a fresh-faced student until she became a mature mother. I’ve never questioned my feelings to this very day. How could I have possibly fallen for Mimi all of a sudden? This sudden matter is just absurd.’“This really is a misunderstanding, Dr. Powers. We’re just good friends. Romance is just a far cry from where we are. It’s not possible,” Elias seriously explained.“Then why are you so worried about her?” Dr. Powers asked.“Am I?” Elias shrugged.“Of course, Elias. I really should have recorded that look on your face when you brought her to the hospital that day,” Dr. Powers teased as he smiled. “You must be overthinking this. Even a f

Then, she picked up the phone.“How’ve you been?”Xavier smirked. “Since my own brother has decided to send me to jail, why has he asked you to come all the way here? To insult me? You really are a match made in heaven.”Jeanette sighed. Actually, Xavier was a very smart man, on par with Damon. Besides, when she had first joined the Godf

    In the car, Mimi turned to look at Zeke, who was next to her. For a moment there, she had no idea what to say to him.They had pretty much silently admitted to the media’s claims over their engagement. Over the past few days, Zeke had been making preparations for their engagement party. She had been the one to suggest getting married, but now she was beginning to feel cold feet. She wasn’t sure if she was ready to spend the rest of her life with Zeke.Zeke seemed to be in a good mood. He had

    “Damon Godfrey! It was you, wasn’t it? How could you do this to me?” His expression was ruthless. His eyes were filled with a terrifying expression, unlike ever before. He looked like a wild animal that had been suppressing its urges for a very long time.Jeanette had never seen such a terrifying look on Xavier’s face before. She paused in fright as she stared at Xavier from afar.Damon seemed perfectly calm. “You brought this on yourself, Xavier. I know what you’ve done. It’s just that I neve

    “You’re overthinking it!” Elias slapped her hand away.Vanessa laughed bitterly. “Oh, I wish I was, Elias. But the facts prove that you’re in love with Mimi Norton. You’re in love with your best friend’s fiancee!”“That has nothing to do with you!” Elias was like a cat who had his tail trampled on. He was tense. He had grown increasingly annoyed now that the heart of the matter had been prodded at.“Nothing to do with me? Elias, do you really think that I was only in love with your position?

    Damon reached out and held her wrist. “You don’t believe me? Then come with me.”Jeanette smacked his hand away, looking very stern. “What are you planning? I’m not leaving with you.”Felix suddenly emerged from his room, holding a teddy bear, just as the pair were in the midst of conflict. He widened his large, limpid eyes and looked at Damon at the doorway. His expression filled with immense joy.“Daddy!” The little boy smiled and happily rushed to wrap his arms around Damon’s waist. “Daddy, are you here to take Mommy and me home?”Damon smiled and gazed at his clever son, a god-send, and spoke in a gentle voice. “Of course. Would you like to come home with Daddy?”“Yes!” The little boy’s voice was clear. Then, he carefully turned to Jeanette. “Mommy…”Jeanette frowned. Her heart was a mess. Felix missed his home. He was such a small child and had been forced to endure the conflict between her and Damon. He must have suffered. However, she couldn’t go home with Damon like this.

    Jeanette was standing in the kitchen, staring dazedly at the pot of burnt potatoes, looking exasperated.‘I’m such an idiot! I’ve actually managed to burn potatoes… by boiling them. This is completely unheard of! It’s all my fault for being so careless. I left the potatoes to boil and ran off to do something else. I was so busy that I completely forgot about them, until two minutes ago, when I smelled the burnt potatoes. Then I remembered that mine and Felix’s dinner was in that pot. All of the water had actually evaporated!’Jeanette felt a massive headache as she stared at the blackened potatoes stuck to the pot. This was the only food they had at home. Now that the potatoes were ruined, she had no other choice except to take Felix out for food.She scratched her head in exasperation. Felix appeared from behind her, hugging the teddy bear she had just bought for him, and walked into the kitchen. He lifted his chubby, naively little face and stared pitifully up at Jeanette.“Mommy

    In a restaurant, the surrounding atmosphere was illuminated by a gentle, dim light, which made it all feel warm and comfortable. Mimi stared at Zeke, who was seated in front of her. She looked hesitant and nervous. She released two soft coughs, unable to say the words she wanted to say.‘Get engaged…’These words felt very distant to her. She did believe that Zeke was the kind of man she could spend the rest of her life with, but to prepare herself for marriage with him in such a short period… She couldn’t bring herself to accept it. After all, she and Zeke had only been dating for a very short time. Unfortunately, Vanessa’s threat had rendered it impossible for her to avoid the subject. Upon careful consideration, it made sense. Since she was going to be with Zeke, why would the time of marriage make any difference?Perhaps it was time for her to truly accept this relationship and start a new life.She took a deep breath and looked at Zeke, who sat in front of her, then swallowe

    “Father, even if he is my brother, he should be responsible for his crimes. We live in a civilized society. Besides, he’s worked with an outsider in a plot against our company. You know this. The company wouldn’t have been reduced to this mess if it weren’t for him. Father, your constant shelter and indulgence has caused him to make so many mistakes! If you continue spoiling Xavier, he’ll resort to something even more terrifying in the future,” Damon said with a frown.Christophe smirked in his rage. “Damon, has your search for power driven you mad? How could you be so cruel to your own brother? It’s not like you’re unaware of why I’ve been so indulgent toward him. Xavier has never been of sound mind from a young age. Are you worried that I’d leave the Godfrey Group to him? That he would take everything that belongs to you?”Damon was taken aback. He chuckled bitterly and exasperatedly. “Father, do you really think that that’s what I think? Would you really be bold enough to leave th

    The car drove along the road. The driver, a woman, dressed in black wearing a baseball cap, slowly spoke. “What did you say to her?”Vanessa pursed her lips, looking particularly relaxed. “I told her to get engaged with Zeke within a week.”The sound of the car coming to a screeching halt filled the air. The car stopped in the middle of the road, just like that, forcing a row of cars behind them to stop as well. The driver widened her eyes. Her expression was full of rage. “I thought we agreed to expose her affair with Elias? It was a great opportunity for us to ruin her, and you just gave it up?”Vanessa shrugged, looking unperturbed. “Why would I want to ruin her?”“I thought you hated her? Don’t tell me you’re going soft!”The woman frowned. Her expression was filled with anger as if she resented her for not doing any better.She had been planning for so long, coming up with all sorts of schemes to find someone who hated Mimi just as much as she did.
