Audrey sat in front of the makeup mirror in her room. A make-up artist was arranging her hair in such a way, while another was applying bold glamorous make-up to her face.
Her face is full of smiles as she wears a red evening gown with open shoulders. "Wow, you are very beautiful, ma'am." So praised one of the maids helping her. Audrey blushed and smiled meaningfully. "Thank you," she said. She looked back at the mirror, then turned her body gracefully. A pair of stilettos were placed on her feet. "Perfect!" said one of the maids who helped her with the stilettos. "Mr. Daniel will surely be surprised by your beauty tonight." Audrey smiled. In her mind, she thought, of course! Not only would Daniel be surprised by her arrival tonight, but Patricia would also definitely widen her eyes. Audrey felt confident. Tonight, Audrey knew that Daniel was taking Patricia to dinner at a famous restaurant, to celebrate Patricia's birthday. Therefore, she would give a birthday surprise to the two people who were spending the night together. Once ready, Audrey hurried off. In less than an hour, her SUV pulled up in front of the five-star restaurant. A valet opened the door and nodded. "Good evening, ma'am. Welcome." Audrey got out of her car with great grace. She smiled kindly at the valet who greeted her just now. Her head looked up, gazing at the luxurious restaurant. A smile appeared on her face. With steady steps, Audrey entered the restaurant. A clerk approached her and asked. "Excuse me, has Madame ordered?" "Yes, of course. In the name of Daniel Anderson, he's my husband," Audrey said with a friendly smile. The clerk smiled again. "Then let me deliver it," he offered. But Audrey quickly declined. No need, I can do it myself. I want to make a surprise for her." Audrey deliberately said it quietly, so that the officer could believe her. And afterward, she winked and laughed. Seeing that, the officer nodded in understanding and then directed Audrey with a smile that did not leave his lips. Then he let her enter the restaurant. Audrey's eyes wandered, searching for the two figures she was going to surprise, and... there he was! Audrey's lipline formed when she found Daniel smiling and laughing at Patricia. With a step that was as graceful as possible, Audrey approached them until Daniel's eyes caught her arrival. Daniel paused, his eyes flashing with disbelief, but also... amazement. He was surprised by how beautiful Audrey looked tonight. "Audrey?" Daniel said her name. Patricia, who saw Daniel's reaction, turned to Daniel's gaze. And sure enough, Audrey was walking towards him in a bright red dress. Patricia pressed her knuckles until they turned white, she was annoyed, but she couldn't show her hatred in front of Daniel. When Audrey reached their table, Patricia released a friendly smile, feeling equally mesmerized by Audrey's arrival. "Wow, Audrey. I didn't expect you to come surprise me on my birthday too." Audrey chuckled. "Of course, Patricia. How could I miss this special day for you? Especially since my husband has gone to the trouble of making this event, especially for you. Isn't that right, dear?" Audrey deliberately flicked Daniel with her words. The man immediately stayed where he was, and looked at her with a gaze that was difficult to interpret. "Ah, yes. You're right. Daniel is so kind and considerate that he bothered to surprise me with this. I'm honored, Daniel." Patricia rubbed the back of Daniel's hand on the table, then smiled very sweetly at Audrey's husband. Audrey glanced at her and didn't like it. Patricia had blatantly shown that she was pulling Daniel's heartstrings in front of Audrey. A waitress came over with a drink, Audrey, who was still standing, took it and deliberately spilled it over Patricia's head, causing her to shriek. "Oh, my gosh! I didn't mean to," Audrey said, pretending to be surprised by what happened. "Audrey!" Daniel called her name angrily. He knew full well that Audrey had done this on purpose to embarrass Patricia. But Audrey didn't seem afraid. Instead, she turned to Daniel bravely. "Daniel, I didn't do it on purpose. My hand was so slippery that the glass slipped out of my hand." Audrey made an innocent face, giving an excuse that Patricia certainly wouldn't believe. She was busy drying her face, which was wet from the spilled red wine. Even Patricia was worried about her make-up smudging. Audrey, you are! Patricia will get back to you later. Daniel stood up and gave Audrey a sharp look. "Apologize to Patricia!" he said with emphasis. "Daniel, never mind. I'm okay. Maybe Audrey was right that she didn't mean it." Patricia put on a sad face as if to show that here she was the victim, but was still kind enough not to prolong the matter. She had to look like an angel in front of Daniel, while Audrey was the one who had to look like a devil. That way, Daniel would hate Audrey even more. However, seeing this, Audrey became increasingly fed up with Patricia's pretense. That woman was two-faced. Audrey snorted with an annoyed smile. Then looked at Daniel again. "I don't want to!" Audrey said with a defiant chin. She should have known that it wasn't right to make Daniel angry, especially at a time like this. And sure enough, Daniel looked even angrier after hearing Audrey's words. Without a signal, he immediately grabbed her wrist and then pulled her. More precisely, Daniel seemed to be dragging her out of the restaurant. Patricia just stared at their departure in confusion. Daniel took Audrey to the parking lot and then pushed her to enter the car. At high speed and full of anger, Daniel drove the car. Audrey had to grip the handle above her head tightly because of the speed of Daniel's car. The man's eyes stared straight at her with a sharp glint. No words came out of Daniel's mouth, other than his hardened jaw. Audrey realized that Daniel was angry with her right now. After all, angry or not, it was nothing new for Audrey. Her husband was still being arbitrary with her. The car then stopped at the edge of town, entering a quiet street. Audrey's eyes wandered, not recognizing the place. "Daniel is in—" Before Audrey could finish her sentence, with a quick movement, Daniel took off the seat belt and immediately lunged at Audrey. Audrey tried to fight back, but her strength was no match for Daniel. Especially when her husband insisted on undressing Audrey quickly. One hand was used to grip Audrey's hand, and the other was used to grip her jaw hard. He forced Audrey to open her mouth…“Daniel!"Audrey squealed in annoyance as Daniel continued to squeeze her body. The grip on Audrey's wrists tightened, and Daniel's eyes flashed with desire.He didn't care how much Audrey struggled.Every body movement created by Audrey made Daniel's libido increase. Even the sighs heard from the woman alone made Daniel's body hot.Now Daniel's hands roamed all over Audrey's upper body until the woman cringed and felt pain. Pressing her hard, channeling the desire that was always held back when he was only able to stare at Audrey's beautiful body from the outside.Audrey's eyes narrowed with a grimace. Daniel did not have a heart for her. He only used her as a tool to satisfy his lust. The man's tough demeanor did not once soften for Audrey. While in front of Patricia, Daniel's face instantly turned into an angel with all tenderness.Audrey cursed inwardly. Regretting the love she had given to a heartless man like Daniel. Even though he had done everything he could to show his love,
Waiting for Daniel's answer made Audrey bite her lip. Fortunately, the man's heavy voice was heard shortly."All right, I'm going home," he replied.Although his tone sounded forced, Audrey didn't care and developed a smile. Then she disconnected the phone and prepared to cook a special dinner.At exactly seven in the evening, Daniel came home. He appeared with a tired-looking face.Suddenly, Audrey's heart was tight. She just looked at her husband sadly.For the sake of Patricia, Daniel was willing to reduce his sleep hours just to look after the evil woman.While Daniel himself was surprised by his wife's current treatment.His wife had dressed up and served his favorite food, but Daniel decided not to care.No matter what the woman did, she would not be able to repay Daniel's disappointment with her.Daniel ate his food with no enthusiasm. Audrey just looked at him while giving a small smile. After a while, she picked up a small box and handed it to Daniel."Open it," Audrey pleade
Daniel was surprised. Meanwhile, Audrey felt that emotions were filling her. How could they do such a stupid drama just to trick Daniel like this?"I can't watch my daughter suffer like this, Niel." Bryan's face was as sad as possible.Daniel was silent, but he could feel the sadness Bryan was showing.Bryan sighed for a moment, then seemed to want to continue his sentence. "Daniel, will you marry Patri-""NO!"Audrey screeched with emotion. She couldn't stand this anymore. With quick movements, she walked over to Patricia and pulled out the IV that was in her hand.Lidya squealed in surprise, as did Patricia who was not expecting Audrey's actions."Audrey!" Daniel shouted angrily at her and pushed Audrey's body away from Patricia."You've lost your mind, huh?!" His eyes flashed with emotion."They're just pretending, Daniel. They tricked you!" Audrey's tears fell. She was nine months pregnant and Daniel as a husband should not have pushed her so hard, just for another woman."You sh
"Audrey, Audrey! Nothing is impossible in this world. I can be a mother without giving birth."Patricia was happy to see Audrey's pale face at this time. Her laughter never left her face. She even deliberately made her laughter louder so that Audrey could no longer move.Meanwhile, Audrey was still standing while clutching Daniel's arm tightly, her face grimaced in pain, and cold sweat began to soak her forehead, but she did not take her eyes off Patricia.The woman must have just been bragging because she was annoyed that her lies had been exposed by Audrey."I don't believe it!" Audrey's voice sounded hoarse.Patricia shook her head lightly and smiled dismissively at Audrey."You don't know that Daniel's grandfather wants me to be his grandson-in-law, but I'm weak and can't get pregnant for now, so he suggested that I take an egg and combine it with Daniel's sperm, then implant the embryo in your stomach when you go to the hospital to check your body, so, dear sister, thank you for
He looked expressionlessly at Lidya for a moment, then back at the emergency room door that was still lit up.Seeing that, Lidya was getting worried, Daniel didn't seem to care about Patricia anymore. Then he added. "Patricia was unconscious for a while, right now her condition is so weak, she needs you to be by her side, Daniel.""You can call a doctor to check on her," he replied nonchalantly."I did. It's just that she keeps calling your name. I felt sorry for Patricia who was helpless. Her face looks pale. She must be thinking about what Audrey said earlier. That child! Always causing trouble. If only Audrey hadn't come, maybe Patricia wouldn't have dropped like this. It was all Audrey's fault. She is responsible for Patricia's health."Daniel, who heard this, started to get annoyed. His hands were clenched into fists, holding back his emotions."That woma has never been able to see Patricia happy. Her heart is filled with jealousy. You'd better break up with Audrey. She doesn't l
He really couldn't bear to see Audrey's current condition. All kinds of bad thoughts were now lodged in his head, but then Daniel shook his head to get rid of them.He had to believe that Audrey would be fine. Right now he could do nothing but let the doctors do their job properly for Audrey's recovery.Daniel, who was sitting on the waiting chair, unconsciously hit his head, causing him to wake up. He did not realize that he had fallen asleep. Daniel stood up and saw one of the nurses bustling in and out of the operating room.Seeing that, he immediately approached and asked what happened."The patient lost a lot of blood. And the blood supply in the blood bank is empty. The patient's blood is quite rare. So, we can't get a blood donor quickly."Daniel was shocked. He was getting weaker by the second. If Daniel had the same blood type as Audrey, he would have donated right now.From a distance, Lidya, who was spying on Daniel, heard the nurse smile. She hurriedly moved from there to
Five years later.At the nursery school, a woman was seen glaring at two small children who were currently looking down in fear. Earlier, the woman had yelled at the two children for their misbehavior in bullying her son."I don't accept it, Sir. My Son is treated like this. Look, his body is red like this because he was hit." Mrs. Melly showed her son's body which was red from being hit.Alea and Kenziee, whom Mrs. Melly accused of injuring her son, did not dare to move. Even Alea seemed to be holding back tears at this point out of fear. Kenzie touched Alea's hand to stop her from crying."Sorry, Ma'am. For our negligence in monitoring. We will pay more attention in the future," said the principal regretfully.But Mrs. Melly still didn't accept. The look on her face still showed anger. "I want their parents to know about their children's behavior and apologize.""We've already contacted them and probably-""Mommy!" The principal's words were cut off as Alea called out to her mother
"Oh, so this is the brat's father?" Mrs. Melly looked at Daniel dismissively.Daniel's eyebrows shot up at that."This son of yours has misbehaved. He hit Rama, my son until his body was bruised. If he is allowed to be a criminal from a young age, what will happen when he grows up? Did you not educate him properly as a father?"The principal panicked upon hearing this. He hurriedly prevented Mrs. Melly from speaking again, before things got even more heated."Madam, you don't know what you're talking to-"The principal's words were again cut off.Daniel gave a small shake of his head, signaling the principal not to continue his sentence and to let Mrs. Melly speak as she pleased."I don't want to know, you have to take responsibility for what your son did to my son."While on the other hand, Audrey still maintained her position with her back to Daniel. Her heart was trembling at this moment, afraid that Daniel would realize her existence. She prayed in her heart that this matter would
“Really? Oh, my gosh! I never expected that.” Violen laughed, mocking Audrey for not being in her class.She had always known that Audrey couldn't compare to her, it was just that everything Audrey did made Violen feel rivaled and she hated it.“The restaurant I booked is a five-star restaurant and you know everyone who comes there is a classy person. I can't wait to see how embarrassed she feels coming in an electric car.”Violen deliberately arrived earlier than the others. However, what she expected did not happen at all.Violen was astonished to see Audrey arrive in a sports car.Yuni was wrong; the car with two passenger seats was not an electric car, but a sports car. Seeing this made Violen feel envious of Audrey.How could she come together with a man who brought a sports car.“She's your friend from the hospital, right?” asked Fero, Violen's husband who remembered Audrey.Violen nodded irritably. Fero noticed Audrey's arrival along with the man beside her. Fero's eyebrows kn
Violent's name flashed on Audrey's phone screen.Audrey exhaled harshly before she answered the call.“Audrey, you're coming, right?” Violent asked Audrey to confirm her arrival.Violent didn't do it without reason. He had to make sure that the main star of tonight's show was coming.Violent didn't want to miss the exciting show tonight.She wanted to see how the others saw Audrey and commented on her. “Yes, I'll come...” Audrey turned to Vincent who was looking at her at the moment. “Together with my friend,” Audrey added at the end of the sentence.Hearing this, Vincent secretly smiled happily because Audrey admitted to her friends that she would invite her along.“Emmh, here's the thing Audrey. This event is a classmate reunion, so it wouldn't be right if you brought an outsider along.” Violent objected to hearing that Audrey was going to invite other people to come.It wasn't as if Audrey was bringing someone else that Violent didn't know, so she would have a hard time putting Au
Vincent was very happy that Audrey had allowed him to join the ladies' event this time. He didn't expect Audrey to melt down so quickly and let him join her.For him, this was a step further than before. If before he could only chat with Audrey stiffly, this time he could feel closer because Audrey wanted to go with him.And Vincent had to make the most of it. “So, school reunion?” Vincent asked, breaking the silence between them on the way to the place Audrey had mentioned earlier.Audrey turned to him. “I thought you wouldn't be interested in this kind of triviality,” Audrey said. Given the character of the Anderson family, she thought Vincent was just like them.“Who said that? I love these kinds of shows,” was Vincent's blunt reply that immediately made Audrey shut her mouth not knowing what else to say.They had been traveling for an hour when Vincent finally parked his car in the basement parking lot of a shopping center.Audrey got out of the car and immediately waltzed away w
Alea glanced at Kenzie, who was asking Audrey to read a story to her, even though she had intended to ask Audrey to read a story to her, but Kenzie had preceded her.Alea looked down somberly.Seeing that her little daughter was silent, Audrey understood that something had happened to the child.“Alea, what's wrong, dear?” Alea shook her head. Kenzie also turned to Alea with her storybook in hand.“Do you want something?” asked Audrey, trying to find out why Alea had suddenly become moody. Alea didn't usually act like this.Alea shook her head again without saying a word. Kenzie watched her brother, looking at Alea and the book the little girl was holding in turn.Then, she also looked at the storybook currently held by Audrey and Kenzie immediately understood.“Mom, the book Alea is holding looks like a good story. How about Mommy read that one first,” Kenzie said.Audrey looked at her son with a frown on her forehead.Alea looked up at Kenzie who was smiling at her.“Okay, all rig
Vincent. That man was the one who contacted Audrey at this time.Audrey was breathing heavily now. The man never tired of bothering her."How do you know my cell phone number?" Audrey asked curtly.She didn't bother to mask her dislike for Vincent. Several times Audrey showed it by saying sadistic things to the man.Miraculously, the man never took offense and always spoke kindly to her, whether Vincent realized it or not. Although occasionally Vincent's words felt a little strangled even though the man said in a soft tone."Audrey, can we meet today?"Audrey massaged her temples, which were getting dizzy from Vincent's presence. "Vincent, can you stay out of my life?""No!" Vincent replied innocently.Audrey growled under her breath. For God's sake, what sins had she committed to meet someone like Vincent today?"Come on, Vi. I want to chat with you." Vincent tried to persuade Audrey with his friendly words."I don't think we're that close that you can just call me "Vi"." Audrey prot
Kenzie's smile grew as soon as she saw Audrey appear from behind the door.He looked very happy with her arrival.But not for Daniel. The man just stared flatly at Audrey, he felt a little relieved that Audrey had come, but also felt a little annoyed that Audrey continued to ignore him.Audrey stepped into the room and her eyes were only on Kenzie and Alea who were on the bed. She came closer and rubbed Kenzie's head affectionately.“That's right, Mommy's coming,” Alea chirped, which was immediately followed by a grin from Kenzie.Audrey raised her eyebrows at the two children who didn't understand.“Kenzie kept asking about you and Alea said that you would come,” Daniel answered Audrey's curiosity.Audrey heard him, but she didn't turn to Daniel when he spoke.Audrey smiled. “Mommy will come, sweetheart.”Kenzie held out her hand, which was immediately welcomed by Audrey. “I want Mommy to stay here,” she said spoilingly. Alea took one look at them and returned to the game in her han
The phone call was from Lily. Daniel was reluctant to answer the call at first, but then he realized that personal matters should not be mixed up with work.At this hour, Lily must have contacted him regarding work matters. So Daniel got up from his seat and walked to the window to answer the call."What's wrong?" Daniel asked directly without saying a pleasant greeting to Lily.There, Lily could feel the coldness of Daniel's response to her. Lily's heart became uneasy hearing it."Sir, there are some important and urgent documents for you to sign today," Lily said, explaining her purpose in contacting Daniel.Luckily, there was a job that could still connect her with Daniel. Since yesterday, Lily had been upset because Daniel had left with an angry look on his face.After that, she didn't dare to contact Daniel and discuss the problem that happened between them, even just ask how he was doing, she didn't dare. And now, fortunately, there was work that made her have to contact Daniel.
One by one, she checked the rooms closest to her room.Ever since Kenzie had been hospitalized, Audrey had put everyone who worked in her house on vacation. So her house was empty at the moment.Audrey thought it was Joni who came to her room to check on her, but then she felt that it wasn't Joni because she saw the man's room in the dark back pavilion.Audrey was familiar with Joni's habit of falling asleep with the lights off. So it was impossible that the person Audrey thought was coming earlier was Joni.Audrey then exhaled harshly and re-entered her room. Her mind couldn't focus because she kept thinking about that man over and over again.***In another place.At this time Abraham came to see Sherin, the man looked worried about Sherin's poor condition.“This must be Audrey's doing.” Without asking any more questions, the man was already throwing accusations at the woman.And Sherin left the old grandfather with the misunderstanding.“I will never let her enter the Anderson. Eve
Audrey stood with her body tense. Because at this time she had just seen Daniel and Lili kissing. After a while the apartment door closed.Audrey's heart throbbed with pain at this moment. Her gaze looked very grim. She did not expect that she would witness Daniel's intimate scene with his mistress.And what Asha said now she proved it herself. She wasn't lying about Daniel having a mistress for the past five years.If that was the case, then why was he always chasing Audrey and asking her to get back together.Audrey walked gingerly out of the apartment.At first, she tried not to suspect even though she had previously seen Daniel's clothes in the woman's apartment, but now what she saw was in fact much more painful and Audrey regretted having followed Daniel to this place.Previously, Audrey had also gotten the woman's social media name. There was an almost identical post every year on the same date.The post was a picture of Lily having a romantic dinner with a man. It's just that
