The day after that was another exciting day.Sonia made it to the front page of the entertainment news, making people speculate that she was one of Jim's new favorites.Lying leisurely on the balcony of the villa by the bay, Daniel put the newspaper he had just finished reading on the marble round table.With a glass of champagne in his hand, Jim leaned against the handrail and said, "I thought you were playing a game of cat and mouse around the world, but I didn't expect that you would be hiding out here.""The most dangerous place is also the safest place." A smile spread over Daniel's mouth. He had never been one to play by rules."The way you're dealing with things this time isn't your style." Jim squinted his eyes and looked at him. He knew exactly what kind of person Daniel was. They grew up together, so he believed that he knew him best.Daniel said nothing.The reflection of the sun on the ocean was distorted by the spinning waves, turning it into shimmering golden spots. Dani
When the other two men saw this, they were so scared that they nearly peed in their pants."Let him go. He already stopped," Sonia said, consoling the thin, tall man as she glanced towards him.The tall man looked at her with gratitude."Fuck off," Daniel growled before he let him go. The man rushed out and disappeared in a flash.Daniel turned to face towards Valery and with a face contorted with venomous rage, he growled, "Look straight into my eyes and don't you dare blink! If you do anything harmful to my woman again, I swear to you, by the time Baron comes to collect your dead remains, they would need DNA testing to figure out that the body belongs to you!"Valery was clearly frightened and angry, but resorted to stamping her feet on the floor with her hands on her belly.Sonia was silent, but her deep black eyes glared at Valery coldly. Despite not uttering a single word, her eyes manifested a certain kind of void that was filled with gloom and emptiness.They spent two days in
"What's wrong with you?"A scenario played in Sonia's head for a while. 'One day, Daniel had an argument with Leila and got himself drunk. Valery then climbed into his bed and a drunken Daniel thought it was Leila and later impregnated Valery.'Such plots were frequently seen on TV shows. Not to mention, Valery's mother, Elizabeth, was a very skilled woman. She must have inherited that from her."Did Valery's family force you to marry her?" This was something she knew, and didn't even have to guess. Some people were just like super glue. Once you stick to their skin, there was no way out of it."There's no way I would marry her, but I want to be responsible and raise the baby myself," he said with sheer determination, assuring that the child was indeed important to him and he wanted to be responsible for it.This answer made Sonia feel a bit uneasy.'Why would you want to take care of a baby if it weren't yours?'It seemed to Sonia that he just admitted that the child was his.The tho
That name.No one was more familiar with it than she was.No one knew her better than she did.No one understood her better than she did.Because she bore that name for seven whole years.Sonia was Cathy.After divorcing Baron, her mother changed her name to Lucy in the hopes of forgetting her past life and starting a new one. After she married Bob, Sonia offered to change her name in order to ease her mother's conflict with her new grandparents. Since her mother's second marriage, they had severed ties with their original family and became members of the new family wholeheartedly.However, did she actually become engaged to that ice guy?Wasn't this the biggest joke of the century?How come she never knew about it?He was eleven years old then, while she was only six years of age. At that time, Elizabeth took her son and daughter and became part of the family. Sonia and her elder sister Alice were too busy fighting with Valery and her little brother, so she knew nothing about this. I
Never!Thanks to his so-called mediocrity, she didn't feel any pressure whenever she was with him. She was able to get along with him, joke with him, and even argue with him. It was also because of his "mediocrity" that she felt like they were from the same world, and that she was able to put her trust in him.There had been a lot of ups and downs in her life. She had gone from a girl with a well-known and rich family to a girl with a small house in the middle of nowhere. And to be honest, she preferred the latter one.It was said that jade was the apple of the eyes of people from wealthy families, but the truth was, people from wealthy families all had two faces: one was ugly, while the other was gorgeous and fake.What was the difference between Daniel and those people?"I'll only do what I need to, and I'll act how I should. Nothing more." Sonia's voice was cold and distant, and there was a trace of bitterness in it. She fixed her eyes outside the window, refusing to even look at D
‘I guess rich mothers-in-law really are cunning and brilliant,’ Sonia thought.Her first grandmother might have been bossy and arrogant, but to Sonia, Mrs. Mary seemed like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. It would be easier to please the likes of her grandmother than to deal with someone like Daniel’s mom.‘I should probably keep my eyes on her so I can figure out her next move. Otherwise, I might find myself in danger.’ Sonia held her breath.This time, Daniel didn’t oppose her. He always did things in a proper way to avoid humiliating his mother in front of others. He looked at Sonia and nodded slightly, and then she walked up to Mary and sat beside her.Valery walked towards Daniel and smugly took the seat beside him. She always took comfort in the fact that his family had regarded her as someone who had the only right to be by his side. That even though Sonia was his legal wife, she still wouldn’t be acknowledged and would only be considered as his mistress. Mistresses who had been in
Sonia didn't know if there was actually a ghost, but there was one thing she knew for certain: there was a hidden secret in the yard.As they walked towards the pavilion, they saw Daisy coming from the bamboo forest path. Ivy waved her over, and they all sat around the stone table in the pavilion. Once they were settled down, they asked the servants to bring them some afternoon tea."The moment Daniel came back, the whole house became bustling with noise." An ironic smile appeared on Daisy's face."I really can't stand Valery anymore. Is it such a big deal to be pregnant? Isabella already has three sons, but Richard hasn't married her yet," Ivy said."I agree. I don't even know how she got pregnant. The woman Daniel loves is none other than Leila." In Daisy's eyes, Daniel and Leila were perfect for each other."No. Daniel is in love with Sonia now. He has already moved on from Leila." Ivy made a face and stuck out her tongue at Daisy. It seemed like they didn't agree with each other.
Elizabeth was so angry that she nearly burst into a frenzy. She didn't expect Daniel to be so ruthless towards her. "You are engaged to Valery and she is pregnant with your child. Don't you think it's your responsibility to take care of her?""I'll take care of the baby. As for her..." A hint of sarcasm flitted over his face. "Since you have so much free time, why don't you take some time to teach her a lesson? If she wants to be a daughter-in-law of our family, she should be kind, tolerant, and generous. Such a wicked and domineering woman like her wouldn't even be wanted by beggars on the side of the road, so how can you expect her to get into our family?"Elizabeth's face was now as red as a ripe apple with a tinge of purple and brown. She took a deep breath and swallowed hard, trying very hard to calm herself down. Elizabeth knew that if she provoked him further, she would get nothing from him. If she really wanted to drive Sonia away, she had to turn to Mary.With that, she dejec
"I don't think it's a good idea to have so many people around. You know, we're both a public figure now. And if we're recognized, they would come to have photos with us and ask for our signature. It's so annoying," Nancy said that on purpose to reassure Sonia.Sonia nodded. Then they sat down in the corner.Nancy ordered a cup of Blue Mountain coffee. Then Sonia ordered a cup of cappuccino.After having a sip of coffee, Nancy said casually, "A rich man is chasing after me recently and is very loyal to me. Do you think I will agree or accept it?" She made up this excuse in order to completely dispel Sonia's concerns. This made Sonia believe that she would no longer have any yearning for Daniel. In the future, even if she sold Sonia to someone, she would never think that she was the backstabber and would still count money for her."From what you said, it's obvious you have the answer," Sonia said with a smile on her face. She was very happy that Nancy was able to put down Daniel and the
He thought she was stupid and pudding-headed, yet he forced her to stay with him and kept feeding her bullet coating with sweet.He felt her a headache at sight of her, yet he wanted to put her photo in front of him and see it all day long.'Is this the combination of contradictions?'While she was racking her brains to figure out the whole thing, a blast of discussions broke out on the Emperor Group employees' Forum.The CEO was married!His wife came to his office today!The lucky girl was actually the champion designer Sonia in 'Beauty on Overpass'!What an explosive news.The young female employees burst into tears. Their admirable, adorable and respectable CEO already had a wife. And they would never have a chance even to dream about him again.After the meeting, William walked to Daniel's side and said, "It is a sensational news in the company today. I heard that your wife has come." His tone was ambiguous.*********Sonia was swinging her club and ready to serve. Out of the cor
"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
"Do you mean the Emperor group of the Dragon City?" Sonia asked Fabian as she found it hard to process what she has just heard."Yes. You bumpkin have made a trip to the Dragon City. You have seen something, haven't you?" Fabian laughed scornfully.With her fingers clenched, Sonia was so furious that a fire was burning in her chest.It was Daniel who did it!He must be avenging on James, on her!The devil was born with a bloodthirsty nature of plundering!After getting out of the TV station, James drove his car and she quickly got on it. She didn't notice that there was a pair of deep and gloomy eyes not far away, which had been staring at her through sunglasses.When James's Maserati disappeared from his sight, a bloodthirsty ferocious look flashed across Daniel's perfect thin lips.Sitting in the car, Sonia was upset.James touched her head and asked, "Where do you want to go to celebrate?" He raised the corners of his mouth, using an attractive smile to cover the tiredness on his f
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! You can only warm up the bed when you win."The man's eyes swept across the cold light, and this was the permanent scar in his heart!With a wave of his hand, he snatched the cup, tossed it, and the ugly thing flew out of the window.
