Gillian stretched her body and leisurely yawned. She rubbed her eyes and sat up drowsily before opening her eyes.

Finding herself in an unfamiliar, luxurious room that morning, Gillian was stunned, and her body tensed for a minute. But...

Upon recalling what ensued the day before, her body relaxed, and a thought came to her mind: she had married into the Albrecht family as the bride of Augustus Albrecht instead of the original plan to get married to Luke Arnoult.

Thinking about Luke made Gillian's heart pang. Luke didn't even attempt to clarify things. It'd have been better if she had received a call.

A lot of people at least know when their relationship is coming to an end, but Gillian had to see her breakup notice in the media. Who does that?

Thinking about Augustus, Gillian quickly snapped out of her pain and hurriedly stood up. For someone who had been experiencing insomnia, she wondered if Augustus was still sleeping or had woken up.

    Ivy eyed Gillian and cocked her chin with contempt. “Oh, was your custom-made wedding car for show? The young mistress of the Albrecht family is walking around the city with legs." Ivy won't deny that when she realized that the car belonged to Gillian, she was filled with envy. How could such a wonderful car belong to Gillian? Although Ivy was a bit happy to see Willa's car, she couldn't help having that sense of contempt. Gillian's car was just too breathtaking, and she had the strong urge to get into it. Upon realizing that Gillian didn't bring that car around her, her envious side decided to lash out and flaunt to Gillian using the car. "Cousin Willa received a new car last night, and she had it out there, unlike someone who can only walk around the street the next day. Hmph!" ‘She’s so crazy. Even if she hates the family and the retard she got married to, this is the second day, a few hours after her wedding. Can’t she respect the family and wait for a few months at lea

    Willa's eyes widened, and her body shook in disbelief. "What do you mean by younger sister will be arrested for illegal assault? How can younger sister be arrested? Who dared to call the police?" Willa cried out righteously, her eyes red-rimmed and her thin voice filled with indignation, sadness, and pity at the same time. Immediately, Willa tried to stand up in an attempt to support Gillian, but before she could, she broke into a sweat, her face turned pale, and she screamed out in pain. "Ah, Luke, it hurts!" Willa cried out while rubbing her knees. Seeing everyone's gaze, including one of the policemen whose expression had turned darker, Willa quickly shut her lips as if she didn't mean to cry out so loud despite the pain that was coursing through her. Luke's expression changed, and he glared at Gillian with intense hatred immediately. "She deserves it." He spat darkly and hurried towards Willa's side to support her. Seeing how much Willa seemed to be in pain yet suppress

    "Come with me." The policeman's soft voice drifted into her ears, snapping her awake from her thoughts. Gillian frowned slightly upon realizing something. Although Gillian had no knowledge of how arrested victims are usually treated, isn't this policeman treating her too gently for a criminal? What if she fled? "You won't." A firm voice sounded above her, and she found herself staring into the policeman's black and calm eyes. Gillian frowned slightly. How did he know what she was thinking about? She eyed him coldly and spat disparagingly, "You seem to trust me too much, but I..." "Gillian Arison has no usefulness to me. I don't need you to associate me with the members of the high class." He interjected with a calm voice. "I just find you pitiful." He finalized Gillian's expression changed, and she glared at him before scowling unhappily. "I don't need your pity!" She snapped Immediately, Gillian stormed out from the other side of the car and held out her hand to the

    Augustus' eyes suddenly flew wide open; his gaze was a bit strange and unfocused. His heart was racing extremely fast. For a few minutes, he stared into the distance unnaturally. Suddenly, his eyes turned natural and innocent-looking, and his heartbeat returned to normal. Augustus' brows wrinkled slightly, and he tilted his head in confusion as if he wanted to recall where he was. He swept his gaze around the large room. Suddenly, a happy glint flickered past Augustus' eyes. His lips curved upward, and his furrowed brows straightened as if he had just recalled something. Augustus raised his hand and touched his forehead absentmindedly. It seems to carry a different type of warmth. Gillian! Wife! Augustus sat up and turned to the other side of the bed eagerly; clearly, he hoped to see Gillian next to him. Unfortunately, Augustus was greeted with the absence of Gillian. Augustus' brows furrowed, and he sprang up from the bed immediately. He walked around the room—r

    Upon hearing the bodyguard's statement, Gillian's heart skipped a beat, and her eyes widened like those of a cute hamster. Augustus had just known Gillian the day before; how could he care about her so much that her absence would lead to his current mood? Suddenly, a thought flickered through Gillian's mind. Perhaps Gillian was the only person Augustus could rely on, so he subconsciously began to get possessive of her. Gillian's brows knit slightly upon realizing a thing. Didn't the Albrecht family care for Augustus? How would Augustus be in such a position without them bothering about it? Gillian took a deep breath to suppress her chaotic thoughts. Instantly, she decided on the most important thing, which was checking on Augustus. Regardless of what might happen later, Gillian decided to ditch the cleaning job until she made sure that Augustus was fine. Gillian bit her lower lip and turned to Butler Leo solemnly. Her back straightened, and her gaze was firm. "I'll che

    "Here. Please hold it." As soon as Gillian arrived in front of her room, she handed the platter filled with two bowls of noodles and poached eggs to Steve. Steve nodded and hurriedly collected the platter. His lips parted to say a word, but before he could, Gillian turned and entered the room at a fast pace. Gillian took a look at herself in the mirror and began to fix her look and clothes. Seeing the red fingerprint marks on her face, she sighed and quickly applied makeup to that certain part of her cheek to conceal the mark. Once Gillian was sure that she was presentable, she strode towards the closet in a long stride. Gillian had always been a fan of keeping favorite snacks in her bag for easy access. Gillian picked up a bag and opened it. She took out a favorite bar of chocolate and a lollipop and put them into her pocket before making her way out of the room. "Thank you." Gillian flashed Steve a smile and hurriedly collected the platter from him. “Can you bring me t

In the VIP hospital room of Serene Health Hospital, Willa Arison lay on the bed with a slightly pale face and an IV drip connected to her hand. Suddenly, the door barged open, and a figure ran into the room at top speed. "Oh, my poor Willa.” Kathy Arison gently grabbed Willa’s hand and cried out in a voice filled with heartache and pain, her eyes pooling with tears.

    Axel strode out of the mansion, carrying a list of documents. His eyes are piercingly cold and frightening, and his expression is dark and grim to the bone. Axel’s jaw clenched, and his vein throbbed in fury. None. He meant that none of the documents he took from Augustus' study could be made use of. Just thinking about how that person had ignored Axel to lick Sweet made Axel exceptionally angry. Seeing Augustus’ state earlier in the study, Axel didn't even know if Gillian's presence was a blessing or curse now. "Assistant Axel." A deep masculine voice of an older man suddenly sounded. An older man in his forties strode towards Axel while putting on a blue suit. His face looked like the older version of Calista. Upon seeing Edward Davidson, Calista’s father, and Renata’s husband, a contemptuous glint flickered past Axel's eyes. However, it quickly dissipated, giving one the notion that it’s just one’s imagination. "Mr. Edward." Despite Axel's change of mood, Axel’s voice

    "How dare that Gillian bitch!” Renata bellowed and gnashed her teeth, her face completely red and her body shaking with indignation and hatred. With a wave of her hands, Renata swept the neatly arranged items on the table onto the floor, causing a crashing sound that resounded in the office. Renata paced around the office, her face completely red with indignation. “I have waited and planned for this day my whole life. How could that illegitimate bitch from nowhere take over the position? That bitch! I really want to kill her,” Renata seethed, her eyes flashing with overwhelming hatred.

Those times when she could only stay in the background… Those times when she wasn’t worth mentioning in front of investors… Those times when she was looked down on… Those times when she could only cry in silence.

If your fans know that you're shamelessly throwing yourself at a married man and daring to stay in his matrimonial mansion. I think they'll be disappointed." Gillian said straightforwardly."You..." Zenaida could only say that word, her tongue completely tied due to rage. Her face alternated between red and green, and her body trembled in rage. This Gillian bitch!"Nonsense!"

    “Isn’t it just to take a file from that retard's office? Can’t you do such a simple thing anymore? When did you become so useless?" A thick, masculine voice boomed from the other end of the phone; the person's voice was filled with fury. Upon hearing the furious voice, Zenaida can only lower her head. She spoke in a patient, coaxing, and soft voice while her eyes were completely overwhelmed with hatred, “Dad, I have yet to find that file in Augustus’ office before that Gillian bitch interrupts me. Since that incident, the security of Augustus' office has become tight. Except for Augustus, no one else can step into Augustus' office.
