Olivia heard about her sprained foot and came to visit her early the next morning.As Olivia held her ankle, she frowned and said, "I suspect you're exaggerating. Your ankle doesn't look swollen."Emily also found it strange. Mr. Satan had massaged her ankle again this morning, and the swelling had disappeared in no time.Olivia asked, "Did Mr. Satan massage your foot again?"Sitting down beside her, Olivia continued, "Actually, Allen Parker is quite decent. I asked many friends, and they all said that Allen Parker, despite being thirty years old, has been single all this time! It seems he's not a playboy. Just think, he sees various types of female celebrities every day; he probably isn't just attracted to a woman's appearance anymore."Emily chuckled, "Are you complimenting my inner beauty?""Of course! Your personality is charming!" Suddenly, Olivia remembered something and exclaimed excitedly, "Yesterday, Nathan scolded Sophia harshly in front of many high society people. It's bei
"I didn't block you. Mr. Reed, you're so busy, I've been waiting for you to submit our divorce papers to the court. We've already signed them, but why haven't you submitted them to the court yet?"Nathan muttered something under his breath as if he remembered something."Okay, you didn't block me, but I'm asking you, when were you with that man?""Mr. Reed, we're divorced. What's the point of asking this?""Answer me!" Nathan roared, "The divorce papers haven't been submitted to the court, so I'm still your husband! I have every right to question your relationship with other men!"Emily also got angry, "Then why don't you go submit the papers today? Anyway, we've already signed the divorce agreement! Finish this quickly, so you can also marry Sophia!"Nathan on the other end of the phone raged, "Is this how you want to leave me?""Of course," Emily said firmly, "The sooner, the better.""What's so good about that man, huh? In the four years you've been married to me, have I mistreated
"What did you say, Nathan?" Sophia looked at him in disbelief. "I'm the mother of your child! How could you say that about me?"Nathan grabbed his phone and was about to leave. "I have nothing to say to you right now.""Wait—" Sophia grabbed him, preventing him from leaving. "Nathan, I've done so much for you. I've been your mistress for three years, and you treat me like this?"Sophia held onto him tightly. Nathan wanted to shake her off, but considering she was pregnant, he could only let her pull him along.He said, "Sophia, neither of us is calm right now. Let's talk when we get back.""No!" Sophia dragged him into the bedroom. "Let's talk about this now!""Sophia, let go!"Sophia pushed Nathan onto the bed and then leaned in to kiss his lips. "Nathan, is it because I'm pregnant and we can't have sex that you went to find the car model? The doctor said I've passed the three-month danger period, so we can make love..."Nathan turned his head away to avoid her kiss. "Get up, don't h
The carpet in the room was also covered with rose petals. The entire room seemed to be engulfed in a romantic red hue. Although she hadn't drunk any alcohol, there was a kind of intoxicating charm that made her feel dizzy.Emily pushed him lightly, "I haven't changed my shoes yet..."She was still wearing white shoes because they had gotten a little dirty after going out. The pure and beautiful petals made her feel like even stepping on them would be sacrilege.She thought about squatting down to take off her shoes, but Mr. Satan was quicker.He knelt down in front of her, pulling her to sit on his lap."I can do it myself..."Mr. Satan didn't say anything, but the strength in his hands left no room for refusal. After she sat down on his lap, he leaned down to help her untie her shoelaces.Emily's hands were awkward, and she didn't know where to put them, so her body tensed up."Emily..."Mr. Satan suddenly called out, startling Emily. "Huh? Is it difficult for you to take off my shoe
Mr. Satan's lips covered hers, silencing her."Emily, this is a vow, not a wish."She bit her lip. "Just pretend it's a wish."He sighed deeply, a mix of happiness and resignation. "Emily, you're too kind.""What do you mean?""Luckily it's me you've encountered," Mr. Satan said. "If it were the man we just mentioned, James, who saved your father with money, would you treat him the same way? He's a playboy, and you would get hurt."Emily pouted. "I'm not stupid. I won't give my heart to every man.""Hmm," Mr. Satan expressed skepticism. "What if you had actually met him? What would you do then?""Well..." Emily paused, pondering for a moment, before replying, "I would definitely repay him. I would work harder to earn money to pay him back."Mr. Satan booped her nose. "He doesn't need money. You should know what men want from women. He wants you. Emily, let me ask you, if he demanded your body, would you agree?"Emily shook her head. "I've never thought about that question, and it's no
Sophia exclaimed in astonishment, "How could you say that about me?"Nathan didn't have time to waste on her nonsense. "Just remember, if you ever dare to touch my phone without permission again, I'll treat it as stealing trade secrets."He turned around to go to the balcony to answer the phone.Sophia grabbed him, hysterically pleading, "Are you going to fire me?""I remember that stealing trade secrets carries criminal liability. Don't you even understand the law?"He shook off Sophia's hand and headed to the balcony.Emily listened to the entire argument between Nathan and Sophia on the phone, finding it ridiculous.What is love?All she could say was that Sophia's luck was not too good. She hadn't enjoyed her good days for long before ending up in this situation."Emily..." Nathan's voice softened. "Why are you calling me so early? Does your father need money for the bills? How much do you need? I'll send it to you right away."After seeing his heartless demeanor, now facing his a
Emily had considered that Nathan might not show up, but she didn't expect him to be shameless enough to forcibly take her away on the street.Nathan's car was parked on the side of the street, and he easily subdued Emily, pressing her onto the back seat of the car.Emily was furious and lifted her foot to kick him. "Nathan, let go of me!"Dodging her attacks, Nathan firmly restrained her, looking down at her from above. "Emily, I won't agree to a divorce."Emily was furious. "Who do you think you are? You cheated, and I can file for divorce in court. It's just a matter of time, and I can wait. As long as you don't care about your personal and company image, I don't care!""Emily!""Hmm?""You're getting more and more aggressive now, hmm?"Gritting her teeth, Emily said, "You and Sophia bully me like that, and you don't allow me to fight back? Besides, I haven't really fought back against you. On the contrary, I decided to help you two."Nathan held her shoulders to keep her still, sne
Jackson's words were like a bomb, instantly blowing Emily's rationality away."You..." Emily looked at him in disbelief.Jackson smirked, his gaze roaming over her disheveled appearance. "What about me?""We are not the kind of relationship Nathan said at all, why would you admit it?" Emily exclaimed."It wasn't before," Jackson wrapped an arm around her shoulder, "but it is now."Nathan watched Jackson and Emily intimately, his eyes almost spewing fire!Emily was disheveled, and he wasn't in a good state either.His shirt was twisted and his face bore two blood marks, clearly scratched by a woman's nails.He touched his face and indeed found blood on his fingertips."Jackson, let me tell you, Emily and I have been married for four years, she's no longer a virgin. I heard that you have a serious obsession with cleanliness, don't you care that she's not a virgin?" Nathan's words were quite harsh.Emily gritted her teeth and glared at him, "I've told you, Jackson and I don't have the ki
