When evening came, Sonia accompanied her parents back to the hotel. Meanwhile, Daniel was lying all alone in the apartment, feeling a little bored and wanting to read a book. He suddenly received a message from Sonia that said, "Dan, come to the bar opposite our apartment at half past eight. I will be waiting for you there."

He touched his chin, feeling quite strange. He knew that she didn't really like bars, so she didn't usually go there. There were only two reasons she would ever go to the bar. One was that she was forced by her two besties, Eva and Mandy, and the other was that she was brokenhearted.

Now that her parents had come to visit her, why would she go to a bar? Was it because she was put under too much pressure the moment she was discovered on the marriage register and she needed to relax?

Daniel immediately rushed out of the apartment, thinking about how easily she got drunk last time.

Inside the bar, lights were flickering, music was blasting, and the beautiful girls on

    To be honest, Sonia had never imagined that her first date would be with Daniel, let alone in the Ferris wheel.Listening to the relaxing music, looking down at the charming night scene below and enjoying a romantic candlelight dinner, made her almost forget that this was not a real date.Daniel cut a piece of steak and fed it into her mouth."It's delicious!" She smiled brightly, and the dimples on her cheeks rippled under the candlelight. Her eyes were filled with joy and innocence. He couldn't help but spoil her a little more. After eating dinner, she looked at him with a playful smile and asked, "Dan, do you often use this trick to deceive women?"He smiled beautifully and replied, "You are so silly and easy to please. I haven't met a woman as foolish as you."She wrinkled her nose and stuck out her tongue. "I won't be deceived by you. I have an excellent pair of eyes."He took a sip of champagne and said in a relaxed tone, "You know, no matter how smart or fast a rabbit is, it ca

    In the coffee shop, Sonia sat with her head bowed down.With nothing else to do, she preoccupied herself with stirring the coffee in her cup. An awkward silence persisted.James felt a wave of disappointment in his heart. There seemed to be an invisible distance between them, like a white mist, spreading around. And it expanded slowly, making her farther and farther away from him. But the worst part was, he could do nothing to stop it.'Is it because of my wedding ceremony or perhaps it has something to do with the man who attended the engagement party with her?' His thoughts took him to dark places."How are you doing these days?" he asked, attempting to break the deafening silence."Not bad." She pursed her lips and asked, "James, are you here to invite me for the wedding?" She couldn't take it anymore and wished to know the reason behind his sudden call.He trembled violently, a touch of bitterness emerging in his heart. "You want to receive it?"Hearing that, she tightened her gri

    In the afternoon, Lucy and Bob went out to see houses.In the meantime, Sonia drew up a property agreement. It said, "After the marriage, all properties under our names will remain our own, including all real estate properties. After the divorce, neither of us will be allowed to take any property in the other's name."She had thought that Daniel would pull a long face when he read the agreement, but contrary to what she had expected, he remained as calm as a lake, with zero emotions on his face.Were his face muscles stiff because of the stimulation?She was extremely worried. To be honest, the last thing she wanted was to hurt his fragile ego, but his reaction was hard to predict. When it came to money, there were a lot of couples who ended up hurting each other, so she had to prepare for the future."Daniel, I honestly don't mean anything by this. You see, there are a lot of couples who fight during their divorce over the division of their properties. They become enemies who end up

    "No... I didn't..." Suddenly tongue-tied, Sonia desperately scrabbled for a coherent response to Daniel's loaded question, but her brain seemed to have stopped functioning at that moment."The way you looked at me revealed what you were thinking. You want me." Amusement and dark promise tinted his voice. His fingers slowly, deliberately slid down from her neck to rest on her sleep shirt placket, which was placed directly over her pounding chest. The warmth of his fingertips seemed to burn a hole in her pajamas. The heat started to burn her skin and transfer to her heart, which seemed to spontaneously combust."I'm sleepy," she announced to the room at large. All of the fight drained out of her. She could only close her eyes and feign sleep.With a mischievous smile on his lips, Daniel slowly lowered his head to kiss her lightly on the lips. With him that close, she could smell the refreshing aroma of his body wash pervading the air that she breathed. He had always used a shower gel th

    Daniel was shocked. Now, he finally understood what the little fool was up to. Apparently, she thought that he was going to sell himself so he can buy the house, and she came to rescue him.He saw her in an entirely different light.Even though she looked delicate and weak, deep in her heart, she was actually full of courage and would dare to pierce the sky if needed."This is my aunt," explained he as he leaned to her ear, in case she was planning to say something more earth shaking."Aunt?" Sonia said, shocked. "She is your aunt?" she repeated, still unable to believe it."Yes," Daniel said with a nod.What a huge mistake she had made!Sonia was so embarrassed that she almost wanted to dig a hole and crawl inside it to hide herself. In fact, if there was a teleportation station beside her, she would definitely jump into it without hesitation and go straight to wherever it may take her and never return.Marci, Daniel's aunt knew what she meant by her words. She frowned at her and sai

    "What the hell!"Daniel cursed loudly as he took out his phone. When he looked at the caller ID on his screen, he saw that it was Leila calling him.He was just about to hang up the phone when Sonia took the phone and said, "Take the call," as she slid her fingers to answer it. She proceeded to walk away to give them some space to talk."Dan! I just had an accident and got injured. I'm in the hospital and I don't know anyone else from this city. I'm scared. Can you please come over?"He was silent for a few moments, before he finally said, "Okay."Upon hearing what he said, Sonia's heart sank with disappointment and utter dejection. She suddenly felt a hint of regret that she picked up the phone."I'll be back as soon as I can." He stroked her hair feeling a bit disheartened. He was unsure if his actions made her feel any better but he also didn't have the time to console her.Sonia faced away and pursed her lips together. Her anxieties caused her to wonder if he would even come back

    'Why am I thinking about him?' she admonished, but found no answer.Soon, she received a text from Daniel.She had no interest in knowing what he had to say. He was probably way too busy with his ex-girlfriend. 'Why did he even bother to text me?' She couldn't find an answer to this question. It seemed like he was adding salt to her wounds.However, the reality was completely different from her imagination.At this moment, Daniel was shaking his head and smiling bitterly. Although he couldn't see her face, he imagined her vividly, her mouth twisted into a pout.He continued to dial, but her phone was powered off."What the hell!" he screamed to the empty space.Suddenly all sorts of thoughts popped into his head. He worried if she was extremely drunk and in a helpless state.Quickly, he rushed to the bar which was located nearby. Like a maniac, he went around inquiring about her.Turned out no one had seen her.He tried to call her but in vain. It was still powered off.'What the hell

    "That rich and nutty cup of coffee is called civet coffee. It's one of the best in the world, and is also very rare to find." Leila rolled her eyes while her lips curled with a sardonic sneer. Just now when she proceeded to order herself a cup of civet coffee, she caught a glimpse of Sonia sticking her tongue out, seemingly amazed at how much her cup of coffee had cost. Of course there was no way she could afford that.Sonia turned to Mandy with a mischievous expression on her face and placed her index finger under her chin. She said with a voice full of malice, "Mandy, aren't those the coffee beans that are fed and digested by civet cats?""Yes." Mandy nodded."They're picked from cat feces, aren't they?" she asked while pouting her lips deviously."Idiot," murmured Leila on the sideline. Even if she wanted to call her out for her ignorance, she knew such a vulgar woman such as Sonia would never understand.Sonia didn't want to bicker about petty things with her anymore. She had to f

    "I will do what I should do. Don't push me to do anything else," She said coldly and looked out of the window.*********Sonia was in a daze for a second. "She is a member of Leila's Family?""Yes," Daisy said slowly, "The senior schoolmate of Ivy is named Christina. She is the sister of Leila.""No wonder." Sonia raised her eyebrows and her eyes glimmered with a hint of indescribable deep color. It seemed that Fabian had a strong opponent, either Ivy or Christina, both in terms of wealth and family background, they were far better than Fabian. And they were not nobody like Sonia who could be casually framed and bullied by Fabian. The three women were just like a drama. If they really fought with each other overtly and covertly, it was unsure whether James could deal with it.Ivy was a good girl. Although sometimes she would be a little capricious, her essence was simple, innocent and kind, and she was totally different from Fabian. It would be a pleasant thing if James could be with

    "Sonia loves you very much. She just puts all her heart on you. As her good friend, I won't see her sad. You can rest assured that I will find a way to help you. " Valery said to James."Thank you, Miss Valery." Said James in a low voice."Let's leave our contact information to each other so that we can contact each other conveniently." Then she took out her phone.James nodded and exchanged his phone number with her.A sinister smile appeared on Valery's face. When she saw Ivy coming, she stood up and said, "I'm leaving now. I'll help you arrange a meeting for you and her." After saying that, she walked to the direction of Ivy. Now that she had achieved her goal, she would "help" them to make a good match in the future, so that they would get married."I'm a little tired, Ivy. I'd better go back first. Happy birthday to you.""Okay. Be careful on the way." Ivy nodded her head and showed the grilled steak to James."James, let's have it. It's specially roasted for you.""Thank you." H

    Sonia was shocked. In her imagination, he should be pissed off and cursed her. 'Why is the picture so gentle and weird? Is icy guy mad to say something ironic?' she thought."Okay. How about I spend five million dollar for you tomorrow?" She tried to sound him out to see if he would change his face at once. However, he still smiled at her with connivance and love in his eyes. "The card belongs to you and you can spend as you like. You don't need to report to me.""If I spend five million dollars a day, will you go bankrupt?" She pouted."You silly girl. I will always make far more money than you spend. How can I go bankrupt?" He shook his head with a smile, feeling her words were childish.And she began to feel that what she did today was very childish. Her fighting spirit had already disappeared without a trace. She had spent a whole day trying to piss him off. Unexpectedly, he didn't even frown. She wanted to hide in the corner to draw circles to curse him.It was one point eight mi

    With a faint smile on her lips, Sonia said, "Do you really think you can fight against the Emperor by marring the daughter of Jack's Family? As far as I know, Mr. Jack is very crafty and cunning. If his Group's stock suddenly plummeted, and he has done those shady business in private and was caught on the hand of others. Do you think he's still willing to get in this to help you? I'm afraid that he would even go against you in his favor."Jobson twisted his lips and said, "Don't talk nonsense here. You're a female. What do you know about business?"Again, Sonia shrugged. She was really talking nonsense here. However, in a business world, everyone had his / her own calculation and no one could be innocent. Last year, there was something wrong with the buildings developed by the Jack's Group. The news had just been disclosed, but it was quickly suppressed. After that, there was no follow-up report. It was obvious that the group was behind the closed door.From Jobson's expression, she k

    Leila felt a wave of disappointment in her heart but she didn't show it. She still wore a beautiful smile and asked, "Can I ask you something?""What is it?" Daniel said, raising his eyebrows."You are not serious about your relationship with Sonia, are you?" She asked in a low voice carefully.Taking a sip of the champagne, Daniel fell silent for a while and said coldly, "She is nothing more than a woman." It sounded like he was talking about someone unimportant.Leila smiled and felt relieved.She knew it. He couldn't fall in love with Sonia. Even if he had sex with her, it was just a physiological need."Come on, Dan. Let's dance. I haven't danced with you for a long time." She lightly turned, like a butterfly flying.Daniel nodded slightly, took her hand and walked into the dance floor.A piece of wonderful music rang. It was a waltz.He gently embraced her. Leila felt so satisfied. She enjoyed his company. Her beautiful dress spread like rose blossom petals.However Daniel was th

    Yes? Isn't it a great honor for her?"What's wrong with Mandy? She's so beautiful, and she's the anchorwoman of the TV. Many rich men are chasing her." She pouted.Daniel flicked her forehead and said, "a woman is cuter when she is silly and confused."She glanced at him.Was he talking about her? Although she was a little brainless, she often fell over when she was walking, peeled fruit, made coffee and scalded her legs, and often forgot her wallet when she went out... However, she had many advantages, especially that she could eat, sleep and feed well.When she was thinking, a pair of big hands came in from her nightgown.Upon feeling this, she took out the wolf proof weapon she had prepared in advance from the drawer of the bedside table."Ice house!

    Valery was discussing a plot with Leila..."Are you coming to see me because you want me to help you deal with Sonia?" Leila pretended to be calm and asked casually."It's also for you to help me." "I don't care about the title. Anyway, I have a child to protect. I will let you be the lady of the house and keep me in the house." Her eyes twinkled as she spoke. She was trying to play a trick on her by working with her. She doesn't care about her fighting for the position with her at all. She can't marry Daniel just because of their families' issue.Leila replied with a slight smile.She had been against her for more than ten years. How could she not see through her little tricks?She wouldn't be that stupid to get her hands dirty. Her victory wouldn't do her any good. The best result was to get both of them in the fight."Sorry to disappoint you. I won't do anything that makes him unhappy.""It doesn't matter. By then, Daniel and his heart would be occupied by Sonia. Just wait and see.
