When she opened her eyes again,she realized that she had been woken by pain so intense that she felt as if her body had gone numb.Meanwhile,the transparent liquid in the IV bottles was steadily flowing into her body.
"You're awake!" the nurse looked at her and adjusted the speed of the infusion.Then,she continued,"Since it was a premature birth of triplets,you were given a cesarean section at the last minute.You gave birth to two boys and a girl."The nurse bit her lip,and she averted her gaze as she added,"Its a pity that the two boys....."
Selena turned her eyes to stare at her.In response,the nurse hurriedly turned her eyes the other side and bowed her head to gather her things.Then,she seemed to have made a decision before continuing to say,They're dead.The girl is in the incubator."After saying that,she left the ward in a hurry.
The two boys are dead.The two boys are dead.....
These were the only words that were left in Selena's head.
Four years later at Dynasty Bar, loud music that constantly stimulated one’s eardrums and provoked every nerve in a person’s body could be heard.Suddenly, a line of men in black suits moved into the doorway. In the Bentley at the entrance sat a man with an expression so frosty that it seemed as if his face was carved out of ice. He was handsome like a Greek God and exuded a compelling aloofness. His face carried a trace of arrogance that suggested he was always looking upon all life forms beneath him.This was Pierre Fowler, the most impressive man in Digton City.“Mr. Fowler, the last location of the spy was inside this bar,” said Niall, his special assistant who was bending toward him outside the car.“Clear the place.” Pierre opened his thin lips slightly and spoke, his voice thick and magnetic.As the people came out from inside, they were herded into a big truck. Although they screamed and cursed, they didn’t dare to make any move because they knew they couldn’t afford to mess w
Everyone heard Selena’s shout. Pierre was the most stunned of them all, and he turned to look toward the source of the voice, only to see a girl swaying her way toward him. She had a youthful face with a full forehead, small cheeks that were a rosy shade, as well as long black hair that fell over her shoulders seductively and messily like a waterfall.The girl rushed over and grabbed Pierre’s collar, causing all the bodyguards at the scene to be dumbfounded. Who would have thought that such a girl would dare to grab Pierre’s collar? Did she have a death wish?When they were about to go over and pull her away, Pierre waved his hand.Then, Selena stared at him, the look in her eyes one of confusion. “Hmm? You don’t look like a bad old man at all!” He’s clearly a man who’s outrageously handsome!He was so handsome that women would fall over themselves for him. At the sight of such a hunk, Selena immediately gulped and put on a gorgeous smile.In response, Pierre raised his eyebrows and h
When Selena jerked the car door open, Jameson was seen munching on potato chips in the car, while Joaquin was frowning and sitting with his arms and legs crossed, looking like an adult.“Pretty lady, you’re back!” Jameson grinned. “Do you want to eat this? It’s super delicious! I’ve never eaten anything so delicious before! My brother said this is junk food, but even if it’s junk, it’s still delicious. Do you want to eat it? I purposely saved some for you.”Selena rolled her eyes. That’s my snack, okay? She had snacks placed in a compartment in the car, but at the moment, they had all become empty bags. However, since the boy still knew that he should save a little for her, and he looked so cute, she decided to forgive him.“Thank you.” Selena stroked Jameson’s little head. “But I didn’t meet the bad old man you mentioned last night.”Joaquin quickly said, “I guess he didn’t come then.”“Oh, in that case, where should I send you guys now?” Selena didn’t care too much. It was just a ba
Later, a line of people surrounded Villa No. 3 in Dragon Gardens. Then, Pierre could be seen getting out of the car, and his dark eyes flashed with a chilly light as he surveyed the villa.Last night, the spy’s GPS information was located in the bar, and the woman just so happened to be there and even took the initiative to appear before him. Now, his sons had disappeared with this woman, and it just so happened that this woman was also neighbors with him. This was all too much of a coincidence.Niall came forward and asked, “President Fowler, should we go in?”“Retreat.”“What?” Niall couldn’t believe his ears. It had been so hard for them to locate them and carry out the blockades, but now, they were to retreat?“Retreat,” Pierre repeated, his voice devoid of all emotion. He had never liked to explain anything to other people.Naturally, Niall understood Pierre’s character. Any decision Pierre made naturally had its reasons, so Niall had no choice but to get everyone to retreat agai
The door opened a crack and a small head poked out. "Where is our daddy?""He's downstairs, so don't worry. Since I'm here, he won't dare to bully you." Then, Selena glanced downstairs and asked, "Are you hungry? Go down and eat!"Jameson pushed his brother out first before he timidly followed along; he was really very hungry.The two little ones came downstairs together to the living room. When he caught the aroma from the pineapple rice on the dining table, Jameson immediately forgot that his scary daddy was still there. Then, he scampered to the chair and said, "Wow, this smells way too good! I'm gonna dig in now!"Selena hastily handed the spoon to Jameson, who picked it up and began to dig in. Compared to Jameson, Joaquin looked much calmer and ate the rice unhurriedly."Mmm, it's delicious. It's so delicious! I've never eaten such delicious rice before!" Jameson mumbled with his mouth full of food."Eat more if it's delicious." As she looked at Jameson eating so happily, Selena
"Let go of me!" Selena was in an extremely awkward position in Pierre's arms, for she was completely confined by him and unable to get up at all."You're the one who threw yourself at me. Why should I let go?""Hey, behave yourself! Your sons are upstairs! What kind of father are you? You're so immodest!" Selena suddenly grabbed the edge of the couch and rolled off Pierre's body. Then, she glared at him fiercely. "Pervert!"She did not dare to stay much longer and hurriedly went upstairs.As Pierre watched her scampering away, his lips were curled into a smile. That upset look of hers is quite adorable.When Selena got back to her room, she locked the door and got into bed, her heart still beating rapidly. To be honest, even if she was once in love with Finneas, her heart had never pounded so fast before. She touched her face and felt how hot it was at the moment. That man is indeed too handsome, well- built, and so manly. What a pity that he's a gigolo."Ugh, Selena, what are you thi
"K-Kneel?" Even Yulia felt that this was a bit too much. "Miss Yard, um… This is a bit too much, right? Why not let her compensate you for the clothes?""You think a lowly person like her can afford to pay for this?" Megan fiddled with her freshly manicured nails and sneered at Selena. "It's kind enough of me to let you just wipe it."Naturally, Yulia knew Megan's identity as the young mistress of the Yard Family. She was also soon to be part of the Lake Family, so Yulia could not afford to offend her. Furthermore, this was her first day of work, and she could not lose her job because of this matter. Besides, Miss Yard didn't ask me to kneel either, so whatever! "Hey, you should quickly wipe Miss Yard clean! If you offend her, you won't be able to get away with it!"Selena never thought that even after four years, Megan was still as conceited as ever. In fact, she had become even worse than before.In the meantime, Megan looked haughtily at Selena. She could guess how miserable Selena
Selena's identity had always been confidential. Few of even the company's employees had seen her, and only the company's senior management knew her identity. To the outside world, nobody even knew whether the president of JNS Corporation was a man or a woman. Hence, Selena was very suspicious of how this man in front of her knew about it.Pierre froze for a moment. "That night I…"Immediately, realization dawned on Selena. "You peeked inside my wallet!" She slapped her forehead. Now, she remembered that she was so drunk that day in the bar that the man had probably taken advantage of her sleeping and peeked at her wallet. There was an invitation from a partner company in it. I was too careless!"Well, so be it. It's fine for you to know my identity, but don't tell anyone else."In response, Pierre looked at Selena with considerable interest. "You haven't answered my question."At that, Selena finally showed a relaxed expression. "You know too little about women. Women's jealousy is ve
"If you knew nothing about my purported affair with another man, why would you bring it up? Megan, we’re siblings. How could you side with the others? When I become the subject of slander, are you really going to smear my name as well?”“You! Your infidelity is a known fact. No one is slandering you! Not only did you sleep with another man, you even had his child! That little girl is proof of it! Do you think that you could start off anew as the president of JNS Corporation? No matter what title you hold, it doesn’t change the fact that you’re a sl*t!” Megan roared at Selena at the top of her lungs.Megan’s behavior of calling her half-sister a sl*t made the guests question her character.Selena was calm in the face of Megan’s outburst. “I naively thought that Finneas was the father of the child I carried. I took great care of the baby, fearing that I would hurt her. But Finneas suddenly told me that he wanted a breakup because you were pregnant. Ah, I almost forgot about it. Your chi
Selena paused in the middle of her speech. “The wedding of my half-sister and my childhood sweetheart.” The crowd stirred after she dropped the bomb. Wow, there is so much more drama going on. This wedding is too overwhelming!Neither Megan nor Finneas expected Selena to bring up the topic. After all, Selena’s reputation was also at stake, for she had gotten pregnant out of wedlock. Despite that, she ended up confessing everything.“When I was thirteen, I learned that our family had agreed to an engagement with the Lake Family. It was at that time I knew for sure that I’d marry the handsome Finneas Lake in the future. I was very young and inexperienced in love. Our relationship was good, and we studied in the same class at the same school.”“When we were young, he was a handsome, gentle, and sophisticated boy. Back then, I always thought that he was the embodiment of the ideal man, worthy of all compliments. Since the engagement, my name has become synonymous with ‘Finneas’s girlfrien
After delivering the demand, Roland immediately left Selena’s side and returned to his seat. Pierre was seated not far away from her and stole a glance at her. It happened that she was looking at him too.Their eyes met, but none of them looked away. Finally, she snorted and retracted her gaze. Outside the room, Juniper flung Joaquin’s hand away. “I don’t need you to lead me around!”He turned around and stared at her with his usual aloof expression. “You all are liars! You and your dad are nothing but liars!” She glared fiercely at him.He had nothing to say because they had indeed lied to Selena and Juniper. Earlier, Pierre had instructed the twins to tell the same story; he even introduced their surname as Moody.“Do you think I’ll be grateful to you after you saved me today? I won’t!” Then, she left in a fit of rage. At that moment, Linda finally found Juniper. “Gosh, little girl, where did you go?”“Let’s leave, Miss Linda.” Juniper took Linda’s hand, and before she left, she tur
“Pierre and Selena!” Megan said in an agitated manner. “When I was in Forever Gown, I saw Pierre with the twins. Selena called him ‘Hubby’ and even said that they were her kids!”In an instant, Meredith’s mind buzzed. I can’t believe that the woman is Selena! I wouldn’t be afraid of any other women, but it must not be Selena!“She also said that Pierre was the President of JNS Corporation. After I stepped out of the shop, I realized that I had left my bag behind, so I returned and heard them saying that Pierre wasn’t really the president. Otherwise, why would I decide to expose their lies? They’ve partnered up to set me up!”Megan finally understood what was going on. “Merry, it’s apparent that Pierre and Selena are in an immoral relationship. Otherwise, why would he help her put on this show when he’s so busy?” Meredith’s legs turned to jelly when she heard that. “When did that happen? Was it before the event in the cake shop?” Meredith tried to sound calm so that she wouldn’t appea
Pierre had proposed to Selena, and she was wearing the ring he had given her, but it was at this moment that she found out he was Pierre Fowler.“Pierre!” Roland called out and shuffled toward Pierre. “Please don’t take what just happened to your heart. It’s because Megan didn’t recognize you. You see, Merry and your sons are four years old, but we have never met before, which is the cause for the misunderstanding. So, we should meet up more.”Selena was flabbergasted when she heard what Roland said.She recalled that when she was in the Fowler Residence, she heard the housekeeper calling out ‘Young Master Jamie’, but she didn’t read too much into it at that time. So, the twin sons are the kids of Meredith and Pierre!At that instant, Selena was disgusted by the fact that he was Pierre Fowler, and on top of that, he also had kids with Meredith.I’ve unknowingly become a mistress! How revolting!Pierre shot a disdainful look at the old man and took a seat. Meanwhile, his bodyguards blo
Just then, a group of bodyguards rushed over and stood in front of Pierre. “He’s a gigolo! Selena, President Lawrence has gotten into contact with the President of JNS Corporation before, so I’m sure that he can point out that the man isn’t the president. Will you wake up to reality?” Megan’s eyes welled up with tears as she was trying to pretend that she loved her sister.Finneas charged forward and landed a loud slap on Megan’s face. “What is wrong with you?!”After Megan was slapped, she stared at Finneas in disbelief, for she had never expected that he would slap her right in front of so many people at their wedding. Suppressing her tears, Megan said, “Finneas, do you still believe her? That man is a gigolo! I’ve done a proper investigation. He’s not the President of JNS Corporation. He’s a liar! My sister isn’t the president’s wife! I know you’re eager to cooperate with JNS Corporation, but—” “Enough!” Finneas growled. Megan shuddered in fright, for she had never seen him so fur
Never once in Selena’s day had she forgotten about her father’s mean words. Roland’s face turned livid because that was exactly what he said to his daughter.Other guests traded glances upon hearing that. Judging from Roland’s expression, they figured that what Selena said was true. How ruthless could a father be to say such things to his daughter?“Miss Yard, come on. It’s not the time to talk about business. We haven’t met for a long time. Will you have a chat with me?” Zeke tried to smooth things over by changing the topic.“Sure.” Then, Selena ignored her father and shuffled toward Zeke. It was too embarrassing for Roland because he was humiliated by his daughter in front of so many powerful people.Just then, Megan, who was clad in a wedding dress, appeared at the venue, which stunned everyone. Typically, the bride would only appear at the venue after the emcee went on stage and made an introduction.Why did she come here on her own? Megan told her assistant to lift the hem for h
"You have to bring her to the basement and make sure that no one will find her. Got it? After that, you’ll be rewarded duly,” Meredith said. The waiter nodded and turned to leave.Meanwhile, Juniper had lost her way and couldn’t return to the wedding hall because the place was huge. She was too happy to play with the twins just now, so she didn’t remember the route back to the hall.Just then, a waiter came over and inquired, “Kiddo, are you lost?” “Yeah, Mister. I’m lost. I’m looking for Mommy.”“Is your mommy here to attend the wedding?""Yeah!”“I’ll bring you to look for her now.” “Thanks, Mister!” Unsuspectingly, Juniper followed the waiter and left the place.A while later, however, her suspicion was aroused because they had reached a really dark place. “Mister, are we heading in the wrong way?”“No. You’ll see your mommy soon.” Juniper took a look at the waiter and turned to run away, but the waiter caught her immediately.“Help! Help!”Meanwhile, Pierre had stepped into the we
That’s impossible! I just told everyone that Selena had married the President of JNS Corporation, but now she’s become the President herself. That’s… Roland thought.Soon, Selena was surrounded by many people who had been wanting to cooperate with JNS Corporation. Naturally, they wouldn’t let this chance slip through their fingers.Meredith had looked around the venue in search of Selena, but the latter was nowhere in sight. However, since she was a public figure, it was inappropriate for her to stay there for a long time, so she went back to Megan’s room. Therefore, she wasn’t aware that Selena had arrived.On her way back to the room, she came across Joaquin, Jameson, and Juniper in the corridor.Why are they so close to each other? They’re triplets!Meredith was flustered upon seeing this. As long as Juniper was still alive, the secret in the past might be exposed one day.Since her previous failed attempt, she hadn’t dared to make another move.Having said that, she knew she had t
