Sonia's eyes started to become misty as she turned away, shaking away her thoughts.

Daniel slid his thumb down her chin. "Look at me," he said softly. He didn't want her to feel wronged. In fact, that's the last thing he wanted her to feel. He wanted her to feel as if she was the only one in the world for him.

Hearing that, Sonia sniffled and gazed up at him innocently. "What's so attractive about you?" she murmured.

"I'm better looking than him," he snorted. His dark eyes glinted under the dim light.

"You wish." She barked out a laugh, but before she could say anything else, he leaned over and kissed her. His kiss was like a shock of electricity. She trembled against his touch as she leaned closer into his arms.

Her face reddened. She didn't expect that the cold man would have such an arrogant side. He even dared to kiss her in public!

Since Daniel was now her boyfriend, she couldn't reject his hold, but she definitely wasn't going to let go of him that easily.

Sonia lifted her foot under the tablecloth and secretly kicked him hard on the shins.

He pulled away as he leaned against her ear. "I have the right to do that," he whispered. His breath fanned against the side of her neck, and she stiffened.

"Your right lasts till the afternoon," she snapped softly. She continued to kick him, but every kick was lighter. For outsiders, it looked like they were flirting with each other.

"I can always keep that right," he said casually.

While James was walking up the crimson steps, his gaze steadied on Sonia. At the sight of her with another man, his heart crippled in jealousy. It was as if the world had decided to douse him with bitterness and sourness to last him a day.

Fabian gritted her teeth beside him. "Shameless bitch!" she spat. "She confessed her love for you the day before yesterday and now she's making out with some other man." James clenched his fists. Suddenly he stood up from his chair and stomped out of the room without saying a word.

"Where are you going? The ceremony is about to begin," she shouted, but he completely ignored her words.

Her nails dug into her palms as she thought of ways to hold him back. She would not let that bitch ruin this moment for the both of them!

Seeing that Sonia was heading to the toilet, she followed as a malicious smile threaded across her lips.

"And here I thought you were innocent. I never knew you have such an obscene side," Fabian said with a smirk.

Taking a deep breath, Sonia decided to ignore her.

Noticing this, Fabian decided to take a different approach. "Actually, I'm kind of worried for you. There must be loads of beautiful women hounding around your boyfriend. With you being so boring, I bet that he'll grow tired of you in less than two months."

Sonia scoffed, "Even if you break up with James, we won't." 

"Humph! Bitch!

You want to bet?" she taunted.

"What's the bet?" Sonia crossed her arms over her chest and turned around, wanting to see what other tricks the woman had hidden under her sleeves.

"I bet that your relationship can't last for two months. If you break up, then you lose," she said slowly.

That was the bet? It was as if she was betting with a five-year-old!

Sonia sneered and was about to leave, but Fabian's sarcastic laughter stopped her in her tracks. "What a coward! I know you wouldn't dare. You know what? I bet you can't even last a month in his arms. You probably got two weeks, and it's over before you even know it."

    Taking a deep breath, Sonia turned around slowly and said, "If you're so sure of yourself, let's take a bet!""Okay!" Fabian smiled complacently. She had been competing with Sonia for such a long time. She knew her so well that she could easily predict her moves. Sonia was obviously inferior to her. She was like a stupid bug whom she could bait and trap easily at will. Right now, she swallowed her trick hook, line and sinker. "Today is April 3. If you don't break up with that man on June 3, you win the game. But you would lose the game if you two break up before the agreed date. As punishment, the loser would have to wear a bikini and dance in the Century Square!""Okay!" Sonia agreed without hesitation. She then took her cellphone out of her pocket and asked Fabian to repeat the conditions of the bet. The recording would serve as the proof of their bet, in case she planned to back out when she lost. "You just wait and see how I will punish you!" She sneered as she walked away.Lookin

    "Go ahead." Thinking of this, Sonia sighed in relief. She would do anything as long as his list of requests weren't asking too much of her."First, no affairs. You don't cheat on me. Second, you'll have to take care of me," he said seriously as his lips straightened into a thin line.How dare he? The first condition didn't even make any sense! The second one was that he obviously intended to treat her like a slave. As they say, if one handed you lemons, you can just go and make lemonade. She shook her head at the thought.But as long as she could win the bet against Fabian, then she could bear all of it. After all, it was only for two months. "Fine, but you should also behave yourself. Don't take advantage of me," she warned him. "I've seen every part of your body, and there is absolutely no part that I haven't touched. What else can I take advantage of?" he teased.Sonia flushed, wishing that the ground beneath her could swallow her right up. She wanted to curse him into the oblivi

    She quickly picked up the bath towel and wrapped it around herself. Her face was tomato red. She looked like a deer caught in the headlights. His eyes lit up almost immediately, looking like a kid whose Christmas present got in early. In the blink of an eye, he stood in front of her. She was so scared that she completely forgot to run away. She bowed her head and stepped back, wanting nothing more than to keep a safe distance from him.However, every time she stepped back, he took another step forward. They continued doing this till he had her backed up in a corner."What– what are you doing?" she stuttered out, clutching her bath towel.Daniel's strong arms blocked her from going left and right, locking her beneath him. He leaned in so close that she could almost hear his heart beating in his chest. "Did you do that on purpose?" he whispered, his breath fanning across her nose. His voice was hoarse and raspy as if he had just gone days without a cup of water. She inhaled sharply."No

    It was late at night, and the weather shifted around them. Dark clouds were gathering in the skies, and soon enough, thunder blasted across the city.In her room, small night lights emitted a dim light. However, Sonia couldn't help but shift and turn under the covers of her bed.Ever since she was a kid, she had suffered from claustrophobia. She made sure to have night lights plugged around her room to help ease her anxiety.Even then, she still couldn't fall asleep as her mind drifted towards James.Although he was going to get married, she still liked him. This love had lasted for more than five years, and she still couldn't find it in herself to get over him.If the girl he intended to marry wasn't the one she hated, then maybe she would have already moved on and have given all her heartfelt wishes. Seeing as he had chosen Fabian, it pissed her off to no end.She groaned, wanting nothing more but to claw her face.A fierce wind came, rustling the leaves in the backyard. Lightning f

    Thunder crackled in a distance, but he didn't care. All he wanted was to save her. The thought of the thunder bolts and lightening sparks making contact with the iron made frame of her window sent shivers down his spine. He could die by electric shock if he isn't extremely careful!Once he arrived, he kicked the glass window and swung himself into the room. Under the light of his cellphone, he could see her lying on the ground. Her whole body was convulsing and her lips were colorless. She looked as if she had just joined the cast of zombies.He lifted her up and placed her on the bed. He began to perform artificial respiration.Sonia was finally conscious. Seeing the dim light across the room, her fear had been relieved. As he continued to blow air into her system, the muscle in her throat slowly unwound, allowing her to breathe more easily."Did you have a heart attack? Where's your medicine?" Daniel asked anxiously, glancing around."No. I suffered from claustrophobia, that's all,"

    "You can sleep on my bed," Sonia stated.His lips twitched. "Okay." Daniel walked towards the bed and proceeded to lie down. When he reached out his arms to hold her slim waist, she tried her best to shrug him off."Let me go. I'll sleep on the sofa," she snapped. 'There's no way in hell that we'll be sleeping on the same bed!' she thought.She struggled under his arms, but it only encouraged him to pin her down even more. "I'm cold. Isn't it your duty to warm me up?""You can tuck yourself in if you feel cold!" She kicked the quilt towards him angrily. If she didn't ask him for help in the first place, then she would've taken the opportunity to kick him where the sun doesn't shine!"Well, you're warmer than the quilt." He placed his chin on her shoulder wantonly, breathing in her heavenly fragrance. There was something about her that made him addicted to her scent.Of course, this didn't mean that he cared for her. He had always been indifferent to these types of feelings. He wouldn'

    However, Sonia didn't take further action. Instead, she slipped out of his arms, jumped off the bed, grabbed her sketchbook, and sat cross-legged on the bed.Daniel squinted his eyes just a bit to see what was happening.The girl was sketching him without his permission!How dare she!He clenched his jaw and turned to the other side of the bed.She went to the other side and continued.Seeing that she wasn't going to stop that easily, he turned back and she followed."Are you fucking dreaming?" Sonia grumbled, finally having enough.Sensing her frustration, he decided to cooperate with her. If the painting wasn't good enough, then he would just tear it to pieces and throw it into the nearest trash can.Seeing that he didn't move, she shook her head and sighed. "It seems that you also dream so fast," she teased quietly.Daniel felt embarrassed yet again.It was a humiliating experience for a man to be questioned of his ability to do something!'If a tiger didn't come out from its slumb

    At that moment, Sonia took it upon herself to bargain with the venders by the roadside."Sir, it's already noon and look at your vegetables. The leaves are turning yellow and the stems are withering. If you don't sell it at 1.5 per kilogram, no one would buy it. Besides, the governor has already sent his men to patrol around the streets," she urged with her arms crossed. Back then, Sonia was used to bargaining for her ingredients in the wet market, so this came naturally for her. Hearing her latter words, the street vendor sighed. "Fine. Deal."She grinned, displaying two dimples on the sides of her cheeks. Daniel resisted the urge to snort. He didn't expect her to be so stingy that she actually put some effort in convincing the man to cut the price in half, but he liked a woman who valued her money. As long as she was willing to cooperate with him, he would definitely give her a considerable compensation for her time with him.Sonia picked up three kilograms and gave the seller twent

    "Don't you have someone with you tonight?" Sonia stared at him angrily and found that Leila was not with him at the moment. She should be going to the makeup room to fix her makeup."Do you really want me to be with another woman?" He frowned slightly and felt a little displeased."It's none of my business whether you have women or not, but I'm a neat freak. Stay away from me if you touch other women. Don't make me dirty." She turned her head angrily and looked away from him. Thinking of the image that he made out with Leila, she was filled with anger and wanted to give him a punch.There was a sparkle in his dark eyes. He reached out and held her in his arms."What are you doing? Everyone is watching us. " Sonia felt ashamed and annoyed and wanted to push him away in a hurry. But she couldn't get rid of him because of his strong arms. "Everyone knows that you are my wife. Even if I have you now, nobody dares to say no.""Your ex-wife."

    "Then I'll give the agreement to another company." He threatened.She was ashamed, angry, and anxious. Rolling her eyes, she said, "I can't do it every night. I still have children to take care of. Holy is now in a rebellious teenager. The family suffer such a big blow that his little heart is badly hurt. He is not familiar with his sister Cathy. There is no need to say, the only person he trusts and wants to be close to is me." After taking a pause, she continued, "How about this? I'll stay in your house every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and I'll go back home to accompany Holy every Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. You should also go back to accompany Rabi. No matter how wonderful grandpa and grandma are, they can't compare with dad."Daniel was slightly angry. This woman dared to negotiate with him and hit the nail on the head. Didn't she know her situation? She could only nod. Did she have the qualification to shake her head and negotiate?"Yes or not? You only have two op

    Now she really hoped that he could stay with her and wait for their baby to be born."Mrs. James, come on. The kids will come out soon." The doctor said. In New York, Sonia and James always pretended to be a couple in order to avoid the neighbors' random guesses and discussions. However, Sonia had already told him very clearly that it was impossible for them to be together again. She was a woman who had been married and had children, so she did not deserve him.But James had never thought about giving up. Although many things have changed, his feelings for her have never changed. At this moment, he was more nervous than her, trembling all over his body. Her painful cry was like thousands of sharp claws scratching his heart.After three hours, the two babies' loud cries rang in the delivery room."Yes, a boy and a girl. Congratulations, Mr. James and Mrs. James." The midwife said with a smile.With tears and sweat streaming down her face, she took a look at the babies in the midwife's

Valery had to put the baby in the incubator for observation.When the nurse came out with an incubator, Sonia walked over and looked at the boy through the incubator wall. The boy was so small, like a cat.Although she didn't know if he was related to Daniel by blood, she knew the boy was related to her by blood because she was his aunt.No matter how bad Valery was, the child was innocent. She hoped that everything would be fine with him.When they got back, Daniel checked out the surveillance video. He was totally pissed off when he saw that Valery pushed Sonia. He just wanted to rush into the hospital and strangle her. Anyway, since the child was born, he didn't need to worry about her at all."I will ask the hospital to do a paternity test tomorrow."Sonia nodded. There was a smile on her face when Valery and her mother knew the result that the baby was not Danie

    Daniel happened to drive past the front of a hospital where he caught a glance at two familiar figures who appeared to be immersed in a romantic world of their own, without minding the public. He took a closer look and realised that the lady who was being smooched and kissed was his Sonia, and the guy was James. He couldn't believe his eyes, although by the time he saw them in the act, they appeared to be rounding off and separating from each other's embrace.Boiling with rage, he rushed out of the car and immediately pounced on James without hesitation.Blood immediately oozed from his nose and the corners of his mouth. When he was about to hit him again with his fist, Sonia rushed over to protect him. She said, "Dan, what are you doing?"Holding her up like an eagle that had twisted a chicken. The rage in his heart made him want to throw her to the ground, but his remaining sensibility forced him to endure it and slowly loosened his grip.James jumped up from the ground, like an inj

    'Is he secretly attacking the city with me? ' Every time he had tried his best to take a space in her heart, James would appear and drive him away from the field without hesitation, making him become an invisible person again.What the hell! He was jealous and angry.When she saw him, she couldn't help but shudder. She felt so inferior at the thought that she might be pregnant with a bastard. She didn't have the courage to face him.How could Daniel possibly understand her feelings? He only thought that this was a sign of guilt after a private meeting with her ex. He was jealous to death.He didn't take her back to the Raymonds Mansion, but to the villa instead. He didn't want his family to know that he was interrogating her.Noticing his dark face, Sonia didn't say anything but curled up on the sofa with a pillow in her arms. All of a sudden, he pressed on her again and wanted to kiss her. Startled by his sudden act, she turned her head unconsciously.He shouldn't have touched her ag

    When she came out of the clinic, she was so furious that she felt depressed. She staggered and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Amy was holding her and comforted her, "Sister Sonia, don't be angry. Now that you have a baby, let the baby be born." She comforted.She didn't want a baby! She didn't want to have a baby with that big liar! She gnashed her teeth in anger. It was certain that Daniel was not sure of the identity of Valery's child. He was worried that the paternity test proved that the child was really his, so he had to let her go as promised. That's why he came up with this scheme. Damn it!She cursed him in her heart as she walked. She didn't notice Sage who was eavesdropping outside the clinic room.When she heard the news that Sonia was pregnant, Valery was shocked and she nearly couldn't keep her feet.

    "Shut up!" With a low growl, Daniel was about to strike her with his fist. However, he was stopped by Sonia. "Honey, you are too strong. This rat can't withstand it. If it dies here, it will bring bad luck."Sage winced and hid behind Mary in horror. Sonia gave her a ferocious look and walked up to her. She walked forward and slapped on her face heavily, shocking the hall."My strength is not enough. The small punishment and commandment is just right," she said in a cold voice.Daniel came over and held her hand. "Good job, my wife. But be careful. Don't hurt your hand." Then she lowered her head and blew air for her.Sage was so shocked that she even forgot to cover her burning face. She did not expect that Sonia dared to hit her in front of Mary.Both Mary and Valery were shocked by her move.Valery was outrageous. There was a saying, 'There are certain decencies of respect due to the servant for the master' s sake'. It was very clear that Sonia was mocking at her. "Sonia, Sage is m
