A condom? what is that? Oh.... a pregnant prevention but it’s not like he was aware that we’re good what was coming to do at my place. “you didn’t forget just that you were not aware we were going to have sex” when he heard what I said he said nothing but wrapped his hands around my waist with a funny expression on his face. “ So does that mean you don’t mind having my baby inside you? A baby? No! No! No! becoming a mother at this point in my life is not what I desire, I don’t want that for me. “is there no other pregnancy prevention methods, condom can’t be the only PPM? He gave me a questioning look while picking up an extra brush I made my maid keep there. “PPM? Oh that, he does know the meaning thought I just said it. “Pregnancy prevention methods “ I explained calmly “ You cold use an after morning pill for now while next time i will make sure we have enough condom available “ Next time..... never Really thought of sex with him again, pleasure is alre
Maybe I’ll just wait till later, we could talk once she’s done brushing her teeth. I decided to brush as well while one of my hand still wrapped around her waist. I’m certain now that our married life will be filled with bliss if she agrees though. After brushing we went straight to the shower together, I took the body wash and wash her myself which she didn’t disagree with. She enjoyed being served. h m mm that’s interesting Maybe her love language is act of service which she herself may not know yet, perhaps I could identify every emotions for her instead. When I was done washing her, she left immediately before I could even ask her to do same. She picked up her towel and left the bathroom, I felt hurt, like, I wasn’t treated the same way I treat her then I remembered she’s different after all. I quickly had my bth and stepped out to join her. “ My love, ho is your day going to be today? I repeated same question from while entering her walk in closet . ‘ I don’t even have wh
"Do you need help with your revenge plan” I don’t need to know what's on her mind but If she wants me to take care of someone, I'll gladly do it. But I won't act without her instruction. “If I need help, I'll ask for it.” Well I will have to wait until she asks “By the way, don't forget the birth control on your way to work. Or better yet, let me get it for you.”I went out of the walk-in closet to the bedroom. I sent a text to Drake to get me a birth control pill as well as my outfit for the day. Few minutes later, I heard a knock at the door. I walked towards it to open it, and the maid handed me what I needed. 'Thank you,' I said.“You're welcome, young master,' she he replied. 'Is young mistress ready? Would you and young mistress prefer to have your breakfast here or come down for it?”I could sense her fear as she spoke. I'm used to people fearing me, even when they're just speaking to me. Growing up, I got accustomed to people feeling intense fear around me."Is your cloth h
Helena paced her room, fuming. It had been days since she had access to her card and her dad kept trying to push to ball due to lack of funds and there was still no resolution. Every attempt to access the funds had been blocked, leaving her charity ball plans in jeopardy. She knew who was behind this, and the thought made her blood boil.The answer came later that evening. As she was sitting in the living room, her father entered, his face etched with frustration.“Helena, it’s worse than we thought,” he said, sinking into a chair. “Liliana has tightened her grip on the company’s finances. She’s the one blocking our access to the funds.”Helena’s jaw clenched. “I knew it. That bitch is doing this on purpose. But why now? Why block the funds when we need them the most?”“She’s trying to weaken us,” her father replied. “With no access to funds, we can’t host the ball or make any significant moves. She wants us to look vulnerable, unstable.”But how did she even know about the whole ball
“Helena, love…” James called out. “Yes, Daddy?” she answered, lifting her head from what she was doing. "Have you sent all the invitations out to the investors?" he asked. Helena looked up, a bit confused, not sure what to say. “Well, Daddy, I sent two to three different invitations to Manchester,” she replied. James frowned slightly. "We want all the big names in New York City at the party. Ray Manchester has never shown up at an event like this before. He may be important, but he never shows up. You should know these things. Make sure every other investor is invited. This is about us making a comeback, about getting the funding back. And besides, I don't know where you got the funds from…" Helena’s heart raced as she scrambled for a convincing response. She couldn’t afford to let her father know about the arrangement with Mr. Blackwood. Thinking quickly, she put on her best reassuring smile and changed the whole funds topic. “Daddy, I understand how important this is,”
Ray gazed intently at the invitation card in his hand. He had been invited to a charity event, which was unexpected. Typically, he usually receives invitations to business gatherings, not charity functions. In the past, he wouldn’t have considered attending such events, but this was different now. His baby girl was part of the family hosting the charity, and he had recently discovered they were unaware of his underground dealings with them.Ray sensed there was still more to uncover, and he couldn’t wait to learn more. Viktor had done his part; now it was time to instruct Derek, his assistant and hacker, to dig deeper. Something must have happened right before Lilly was born to make a father hate his own daughter.Just then, he heard his baby girl’s voice behind him. “What are you looking at so intensely?” she asked. Ray turned to see her standing there in her natural bathing suit with only a towel wrapped around her head.He swallowed hard, he felt his dick harden immediately. ‘No, R
Ray's heart raced as he processed Lilly's last statement. Alone? There was no way he could let that happen. Why will he attend such an annoying ball without her, they could use this opportunity to go on a date.He watched as she moved about the closet, seemingly oblivious to the turmoil brewing inside him. The clothes just began to look annoying and he desires to burn them all, she’s not even looking at him, it like the cloth are more important than he was."Lilly," he began, trying to keep his voice steady. "Why would I go alone? We go on a date rather than attend that nasty ball” he said trying so hard to act cute.Lilly turned to him, Finally, he gets some attention those annoying cloths were enjoying. "Ray, I need you to be my eyes and ears at the ball. I trust you more than anyone, well I trust my assistant more but you are the second now, and I need you to stay in the spotlight. This way, you can keep an eye on things without drawing too much attention on me if I eventually deci
Damon had already informed him about Lilly’s illness before he came, and this was his first time encountering such a case. It piqued his interest—a perfect patient for his experiment, or so he thought. He wouldn’t dare entertain the idea of using the ice queen. Dr. Harris began his examination, asking Lilly a series of questions about her mental state. Ray watched intently, his eyes darting between Lilly and the doctor. “So, Miss Anderson,” Dr. Harris said, “can you tell me about your emotional experiences? Do you feel emotions like happiness, sadness, or fear?” He asked, feeling much better and less anxious. Lilly’s expression remained neutral. “I don’t really feel emotions like others do. I’ve been told I’m numb or that I have a flat affect.” Dr. Harris nodded thoughtfully. “I see. And can you recognize emotions in others? For example, can you tell if someone is happy or upset?”‘How is she able to say all this with a straight face ‘ Emily thought ‘she’s definitely the ice quee
Chapter 93“Gosh! My phone has been ringing nonstop, it’s quite frustrating,” Lilly said with her voice sounds like she just yelled, tossing her phone onto the couch in a rare outburst.Ray glanced up from his stack of documents, surprised by her sudden display of anger. He had never seen her showing any emotions, except for the moments when they were intimate. Normally, Lilly was composed, almost detached, but seeing her express real frustration made her seem more human—more relatable. He found it cute and sexy. This was the woman carrying his child, and that realization stirred something deep in him. Their baby was already having an effect on her, and he loved watching her change, becoming more raw and vulnerable."It's Anderson, isn't it?" Ray asked, though he already knew the answer. He set his papers aside and moved closer to her. Lilly sighed heavily, rubbing her temples. “Yes, the press. And board members. Andresin. Everyone’s got something to say, and it’s exhausting.”It had
Chloe stepped into her car, starting the engine as she mentally prepared for the drive to Jerry’s house. She had to deliver some documents and assist with investigating Felix’s Aunt Ava, as ordered by her boss. The past three months had been filled with surprises, but the biggest one was the transformation in her boss. A woman who once didn’t care about any man now seemed entirely enmeshed with a Manchester, practically handing her empire over to him on a silver platter. *What if he betrays her?* Chloe thought, her fingers tightening on the steering wheel. *Men can’t be trusted with power, especially not when they already have plenty of their own.* Still, she had to trust her boss’s judgment. She had never made a wrong business decision before, and Chloe could only hope this wouldn’t be the first. As she checked her G****e Maps, making sure she was heading in the right direction, the thought of seeing Jerry made her grimace. He made her skin crawl with the way he stared at her—like h
In the grand Manchester estate, sunlight streamed through the tall windows, casting a warm glow on the lavishly decorated sitting room. Mitchell, was seated on a cushion, her eyes glued to the television screen. The news of her son’s marriage to Liliana Anderson had just broken, and Mitchell’s lips curled into a wide, triumphant smile.“I knew it,” she said, turning to her husband,, who was sitting nearby with a newspaper in hand. His gaze shifted from the paper to the screen, where Liliana was coolly conducting an interview. She was elegant, poised, and utterly unapologetic about her recent takeover of Anderson Empire. Mitchell’s heart swelled with pride.“You see that, hubby?” Mitchell’s voice rose with excitement, the usually composed woman unable to contain herself. “That’s *our* son’s wife. She’s a force of nature! Look at her—fearless. She’s not like those other women, all demure and helpless. Liliana knows exactly what she wants, and she’s not afraid to take it. The Andersons d
Matilda paced the room, her heels clicking against the marble floor as she frantically dialed Ellen’s number. Her hands were trembling. The sight of Liliana’s betrayal on the television had ignited a storm of rage, but it was Helena who now posed the greatest risk. If Helena saw any of this—if she even *suspected* what had happened—it could unravel everything.The changes in Liliana came as a big shock to her, and her sudden interest in investigating her poisoning was unexpected. What changed? What happened to the old Liliana that does even give a fuck what happens around her. Ellen picked up on the third ring. Her voice, as cool and calculated as always, soothed Matilda’s nerves for a brief moment. "Mrs Anderson, what is it?" she asked right away, she may love Helena but she does give a flying fuck about anyone of her family.“Ellen, I need your help.” Matilda didn’t waste time with pleasantries. “You need to keep Helena away from the news—away from anything to do with Liliana and R
James Anderson stood frozen, the phone pressed to his ear, the board member’s frantic words still echoing in his mind. The Anderson Empire—his empire—no longer belonged to him. The family legacy he had killed for even though Liliana was in charge he still felt in control now belongs to Ray Manchester, how the hell did this happen.“Turn on the news?” James repeated, his voice cold. He could feel the slow burn of rage building inside him. He didn’t need to be told what was happening. He had a feeling that Liliana had just made a public statement that would send shockwaves through the business world.He hung up the phone without another word and strode over to the television. His hands shook as he grabbed the remote and flicked it on. The screen lit up, showing the aftermath of a press conference. Reporters were still in a frenzy, flashing lights illuminating the sleek boardroom where Liliana and Ray Manchester had stood just moments ago. “...in a surprising turn of events, Liliana And
The press conference had barely ended, and the internet was already ablaze. Social media platforms flooded with reactions, memes, and conspiracy theories. News outlets scrambled to publish breaking headlines, and Anderson Empire was trending globally. The public, as always, was quick to react—and even quicker to judge.On Twitter, a trending hashtag had already emerged: **#icequeenLives**. Alongside it, another hashtag was gaining traction: **#AndersonEmpireReborn**. People couldn’t stop talking about Lilly’s dramatic return, her marriage to Ray Manchester, and, of course, the kiss that had set the internet on fire.“**Did anyone else just see that? Liliana Anderson—sorry, Manchester now—literally dropped the mic with that kiss! ICONIC. #icequeenLives**” “**So... poisonings, secret marriages, and now Ray Manchester in charge of Anderson Empire? This is better than any TV drama. #AndersonEmpireReborn**” “**Is it just me, or does anyone else think Ray and Liliana planned this whole
Ray’s entrance seemed to silence the room as if his presence alone commanded a certain reverence. The air crackled with the weight of the moment, every eye locked onto the couple standing before them. Together, they were an undeniable force, and the reporters knew it.Lilly stood with her head held high, her composure never wavering, while Ray exuded quiet strength beside her. It was clear now—this wasn’t just a press conference about Anderson Empire’s financial future. This was a changing of the guard, a public declaration of a new era, and the media could feel it.Ray approached the podium with ease, the room once again stilling. His voice was deep, measured, and commanding. “As my wife mentioned, Anderson Empire is now under my leadership. This isn’t just a transition—it’s a transformation. We’ve spent the last several months restructuring and preparing for the future. You’ll see that reflected in our upcoming projects and initiatives.” Calling ‘my wife’ in front of so many people
The boardroom was buzzing with quiet anticipation. Press conferences like this one were always meticulously organized, with reporters and photographers lining up their equipment, ready to capture the moment that would make the headlines. The Anderson Empire’s recent turmoil had the media’s full attention, and now, everyone was waiting for the bombshell Lilly had alluded to.Lilly stood in front of the mirror in the dressing room adjacent to the boardroom, pulling her blazer tight. She observed her reflection, her expression composed. Every detail was precise—the fit of her suit, the neatness of her hair, and the cold calm she exuded. She had always been calculated, every step planned, but today, there was more at stake.It time she face Liliana demons and over with it already, the world will be certain that she is alive after today and there won’t be anymore doubts on their minds, the Anderson family will be shaken to the core with this move of hers.Ray appeared behind her, adjusting
The first rays of morning light filtered through the bedroom curtains, casting a soft glow over the room. Lilly stirred beneath the covers, her mind slowly coming out of its restful state. For once, she felt a faint sense of exhaustion lingering, something she wasn’t used to. She wasn’t accustomed to waking up tired—her usual mornings were marked by clarity and readiness for whatever tasks lay ahead. But today, her body felt different.She opened her eyes, squinting slightly at the brightness, and realized Ray was still fast asleep next to her. His arm was draped over her waist, his breathing steady and calm. He looked peaceful, his features relaxed in a way that only came when he was deeply at ease.No one would have believed the ball of cuteness beside her made her scream so loud the previous night. Last night intimacy was something else, it was basically mind blowing. She had never cum that had since they got together and the fact that she felt drained afterwards was unexpected, it
