Sigrid looked in the direction of the voice and confirmed that the woman in the famous brand dress was talking to her. She immediately took her hand off the shopping cart. "Sorry, I didn't know."

"Humph! You didn't know what! You just want to attract the attention of my man here. How shameless!" The woman grabbed the shopping cart.

The man beside her, with a beer belly, looked Sigrid up and down lasciviously. "Young lady, how much do you charge per month?"

"Disgusting! You have me!" the woman shouted at him. "Isn't that enough for you? Do you want another one?" The woman was very unhappy and pulled the man away. The way she looked at Sigrid became more and more unfriendly. "You'd better go quickly unless you want to end up as someone's mistress at such a young age. Didn't your mother teach you any self-respect? You're so ill-bred!"

Sigrid didn't want to continue to talk nonsense with this woman, but when the woman started swearing at her and then brought her dead mother into it, that was the last straw.

"Listen Auntie, I only wanted to take a shopping cart to carry my things, and I wouldn't dream of trying to steal away the gentleman standing next to you."

"What... what did you call me?" When the woman heard the way that Sigrid had addressed her, she was so angry that her face turned red and her eyes were popping out of her head.

"I called you Auntie." Sigrid said seriously.

"You little b*tch! I'm only twenty-five years old! I'm not an old woman!" The woman let go of the man's hand, and started yelling like a shrew. "You say that you don't want to steal my man, but look at you! Aren't you here to catch a rich husband? Are you here to shop? Can you afford it?"

"Yes young lady, you can't afford anything here, can you?" The beer belly laughed, and the expression on his face became more and more obscene. "Why don't you come with me? I'll take you to live it up! Will1,000 dollars a month be enough to keep you?"

Sigrid was so angry that her face turned red. Just as she was about to speak, a man's cold voice came from behind her. "What's going on?"

Sigrid turned her head and saw that it was George. "I accidentally took her shopping cart and have already apologized," Sigrid began to tell him, "But she accused me of trying to steal her man here and said that I was ill-bred. And this guy wants me to become his mistress. Hubby, this woman is so terribly insulting. I don't know what to do with her!"

George was speechless. "Now you know how to call me hubby. But didn't you so happily call me brother-in-law before?"

The beer-bellied man was stunned for a moment when he saw George. He came to his senses and hurried forward. "Mr. Toland? It's really fate that I should meet you here. Do you remember me? I'm the general manager of the Yale Group."

"No, I don't." George put his arm around Sigrid's waist. "Did my wife just try to steal you away? Are you going to keep her as your mistress?"

"No, no, no, how could it be! How could your wife ever be interested in me!" The man smiled obsequiously, quickly pulled the woman over next to him, and said, "Apologize to Mrs.Toland!"

When the woman saw George's comportment, she knew that the man standing in front of her was someone special. She thought quickly and then winked at George. "I'm sorry, Mr. Toland." she said softly, "There has been a misunderstanding. We didn't know that this was your wife."

Sigrid didn't like the way the woman was looking at George. Her intuition told her that this woman was trying to seduce her brother-in-law!

She stepped in front of George and said, "Miss, please don't throw flirtatious glances at my man. You'll give him an eyesore!"

    The woman's expression suddenly stiffened. The next second, Sigrid took George's hand and left quickly, so as not to waste time here. George saw an empty cart not far away, so he pushed it over. The two of them went back to the shelf where the condom boxes were and he put one of each in the cart. Sigrid was stunned. "Why are you taking so many?" You want to blow up air balloons or what? George paused and said, "Let's try all of them." "But... it seems there are different dimensions. I see that you took different sizes," Sigrid said while blushing. She knew in her heart that it was impossible for her to ask George not to buy them. Anyway, she would say that she had no need for them. Her brother-in-law paid so much attention to health, and he knew that overindulgence in s*x was not good for health. Most likely, she hoped, these things would never be used! It was only then that George noticed the label on the box. He kept the largest size and put

    Rebecca and George came back to the study. The walk seemed to have cleared Rebecca's head a little, and she was not as excited as before. She tried her best to keep her tone as civil as possible. "Then what's going on with the video? You've installed surveillance in my house?" "Yes," George admitted without hesitation. Rebecca's face turned pale. "Have you known about what happened between Edward and me?" "Yes." "Why? If you've known it for so long, why haven't you said anything this whole time? Why did you wait until the wedding to expose me? Did you want to retaliate against me and embarrass me?" "For Sigrid." Rebecca's eyes widened. She couldn't believe what she had just heard. Curious, Sigrid put her ear to the door of the study but she couldn't hear anything. Some few minutes later there came a scream from the study that sounded like it came from a woman who had collapsed, which scared her. Was it Rebecca screaming? What

    After returning home, Rebecca threw herself into the arms of her mother, Karma Beaufort, and cried loudly. "Boo hoo hoo, mom, why did he do this to me? This is going to ruin me!" "Now child, don't cry. What did Mr.Toland say? Did he really have someone do it?" Rebecca clenched her fists and stopped crying. "He admitted it. Not only that, but as early as the first time I slept with Edward, he knew it. He had a lot of evidence that I was having a pre-marital affair with Edward!" Suddenly Kama Beaufort felt a little dizzy. "How could this be? Did he lie to you? If so, how could he have kept it to himself all this time?" No man would put up with his fiancée having s*x with another man. What's more, Kama knew that it had been two years that Edward and Rebecca had maintained that kind of relationship. When Rebecca thought of this, her whole body was about to collapse. "I couldn't believe it, but he said that everything was for Sigrid!" Rebecca's expression

  • Sweet Marriage: Dear Lady, You're Mine   Chapter 17 If There is Anything Wrong, You Will Pay with Your Life

    Sigrid had been reading the posts on Twitter for a long time. When she saw Rebecca being criticized and even closed her comments section, she felt very happy. As soon as it became known that Rebecca had a pre-marital affair, most of her fans, who had just become her fans, loathed her immediately. Even among the old fans, some of George's fans became anti-fans. At first, some fans wondered whether the video was made by George in order to 'whitewash' the relationship between him and Sigrid. But when a comparison was made with a shot of Rebecca in a swimming suit in a modern drama she had acted in, it was confirmed that the woman in the video had the same mole as Rebecca. So the fans were convinced that the woman in the video was Rebecca! After dealing with the matter, George came to the door of the room and saw Sigrid sitting on the bed looking at her mobile phone happily and tittering. She wasn't aware that her skirt had slipped up to just below her buttock, revealing

    Seeing George hanging up the phone, Sigrid said in a weak voice, "If you do that... she may piss off. What if she tosses my mother's ashes?"  "No she won't, she's afraid of dying," George said. After being in a relationship with her for nearly three years, he knew what kind of person Rebecca was. And Rebecca also knew that with his ability, it would not be difficult for him to make someone disappear from this world without leaving a trace. "Oh, I see..." Sigrid nodded. The two of them were silent, and the atmosphere began to become awkward. Sigrid felt that she had nothing to say. She looked down and was about to play with her mobile phone when she caught sight of her exposed panties. When she abruptly looked up, she realized that George had been staring at her... legs. So the whole time he'd been talking and looking at her, he was looking at... Her! Under! Pants! She quickly pulled down her skirt and said with a red face, "Why didn't you say s

    Seeing her blushing face, George said, "It's okay to sign the contract. We can renegotiate the terms." "Okay!" Sigrid nodded quickly. As long as she didn't have to 'do the dirty' at night, she could take a few steps back on the other points. This was not a problem at all! For the next ten minutes, they sat in front of the computer and considered their conditions. George had already prepared the way to deal with her. With her sitting next to him and smelling her faint body fragrance, he couldn't help but smile and think of the past. The year he was in the first grade of primary school, she had been bullied by several naughty boys in the class who wanted to attract her attention because she was so cute. Those boys deliberately pulled her braids, which made her cry in pain. Enchanted, he handed her a handkerchief. She took it without hesitation and wiped her tears and snot on it. Perhaps it was because he had taken the initiative to hand over the handkerchief

    Sigrid felt that the temperature around her seemed to have dropped a little. Realizing that George might be angry, she quickly said, "I can accompany you to put on a show in front of your parents, but you can't do this all your life. Maybe we will meet someone we like and want to get married..." George frowned and was silent for two seconds. Then he said, "Okay, Let's get the marriage license." "Huh?" Sigrid was shocked. "There's no need to get a marriage license, is there?" She thought that if there was a marriage license and in the future she met someone she liked, she would have to get remarried. If there was no marriage license, they would be a fake couple and it would be more convenient to split up. They would need only to explain it verbally to the public. "Yes, we need." he responded. It seemed that he was worried that she would not agree, so he added, "If there's a marriage license, we'll be a legally married couple and you can get a property settlement

    Hearing this, Sigrid blushed at the thought of it. She was going to have a nosebleed! They were of different genders, so how could they take a shower together! "We're not married yet. What do you celebrate for?" Sigrid pretended that her nose itched and she reached out to rub her nose for a long time to check that she did not have a nose bleed. Then she changed the subject. "Since I will help you deal with your family as your wife in the next five years, you have to tell me if there are any special requirements." "You just need to behave yourself in front of others." George looked at her rosy lips, his sexy Adam's apple rolled up and down. After the contract was printed out, both of them signed. Then Sigrid took her copy and left the study while George put his copy in the drawer of his desk. He locked the drawer and his sexy thin lips curled up slightly. This silly girl was so easily duped. Sigrid thought for a long time and finally decided to

    "Okay." Grace agreed and said, "I have something else to discuss with you." When he finally heard this sentence, Zaden knew that there must've been something going on. "What's the matter?" As they talked, they went into the lounge. Zaden also specifically told the secretaries that no one was allowed to come in and disturb him before work in the afternoon. These words made the secretaries' eyes turn red. Since he had ordered them to keep everyone out of his office while he was inside with a woman, it was hard to control their imaginations from running wild. "How's your investigation on my surrogacy?" Grace asked. Zaden had thought that Grace's patience was wearing thin, and so she had sought him out for an update on his progress. Feeling a little ashamed, he said, "I'm sorry. There hasn't been any progress so far. You know that information on surrogacy is highly secured. It won't be so easy for my subordinates to investigate it." "It's okay. You

    "Stop!" Grace made a gesture and said, "I'm going to the Empire Group. Do you want to go with me?" "Oh?" Gentry was flustered for a moment and then realized that he had almost gotten himself in trouble. He quickly said goodbye. "Sorry, sorry for bothering you. It's my fault!" Grace shook her head helplessly. She went to the kitchen to bring the toiletries she had prepared for Zaden, and set off for the Empire Group. Grace took a cab, as she didn't have the nerve to ask her chauffeurs to give her a ride. This was the first time Grace had taken the initiative to go there. She didn't know whether she was going to meet Zaden or not, but the staff at the front desk had changed since the last time she had went to deliver food and she didn't know when it had happened. Hence, the new staff didn't know her at all. However, when she saw that Grace was dressed up very beautifully and elegantly, she guessed that Grace must be someone important. Naturally, she didn't d

    This time, Grace took the initiative. She stood on tiptoe, hooked her arms around Zaden's neck, and took the initiative to plant her pink lips on his. The chaste kisses turned into lingering kisses. Zaden had always restrained himself very much. Every time he met Grace, he always felt that he was on the verge of losing control. "Well, I can't believe that you are so obedient today. Go to sleep. If you kiss me again, I might not remain chaste. You won't have a chance to sleep even if you want to," said Zaden. After going to bed, Grace took the initiative to cradle into Zaden's arms. Just like Dulcie acting like a spoiled child, Grace had also put all of her heart and soul into Zaden, like a spoiled child. The next day, there was still no sign of Zaden at breakfast in the Andrew household. "Oh? Dad's gone again..." Dulcie said regretfully. Douglas found that his sister was upset, thus he comforted her, "It doesn't matter, Dulcie. Daddy need

    The silent confrontation was still going on, and Zaden was waiting. When would Moira give in? Moira was also waiting. When would Zaden be gracious enough to let her go? However, perhaps these two people didn't know each other very well. They both had naive expectations that were absolutely wrong and impossible to achieve from the beginning. "It's so cold..." Moira murmured in a low voice. As she spoke, a puff of white vapor immediately appeared in front of her lips. Even though kneeling down like this was not a big deal, Moira had always been pampered and had grown up a spoiled child. She had never suffered this kind of hardship before. Her body could not bear it either. She only felt that her legs were on the verge of losing its strength and becoming numb. The rain grew heavier and heavier, and the wind and rain swayed. Flowers in the garden were beaten into a mess by the rain, as so was Moira. Moira's body had reached its limit, and she could not catch h

    "Plop—" Moira's kneecaps hit the ground, the sound of it ringing crisp. Grace was dumbfounded. She looked at Moira, who was kneeling in front of her, and could not say anything for a while. As for Zaden, there was not even the slightest expression on his face. "What, what are you doing?" Grace asked. She instinctively stood up from her chair as she took in the scene before her, at a complete loss of what to do. Moira glanced at her. Sometimes, when one's ego was at one's feet, one becomes more able to take humiliation than usual. She replied with indifference, "Why are you so agitated? I'm not kneeling at you. Don't think too much of yourself." Moira looked at Zaden and said, "Zaden, I beg you, please have mercy on the Coulson family. No matter what you demand, as long as I can do it, you can demand it!" Zaden frowned and said, "Kneel further if you want to. You're an eyesore right now." Mercy? For someone like Zaden, mercy had always bee

    "No, Mother, if Zaden takes over the Coulson Group, then we..." Moira could not continue speaking. She did not even want to imagine what would happen. "You understand now? I thought a donkey kicked you in the brain!" "That... That won't do. I'll go beg him right now!" Moira shouted. Now that things had come to this, it was obvious that Zaden's target was Moira. Although she was extremely unwilling, she would have to make a stand against him now. No matter what she would have to experience, she had to protect the company. She could not lose everything. She rushed to the Andrew family villa, but Moira was not even allowed through the main entrance. "Let me in!" Moira began making a scene outside. She made such a ruckus that it was difficult for the people inside to ignore her. "Mr. Andrew, Miss Coulson is causing a scene outside, this..." the butler informed Zaden "Let her be," Zaden said expressionlessly. This was not the first

    Grace frowned before cutting Moira off. "Moira, there's no use in talking to me like that. I just want to know who it is. Tell me the truth!" "Do you think I'll tell you just because you want to know?" Moira scoffed before retorting, "Who do you think you are?" "Does this mean that you admit you used Mr. Yale's name to deceive me?" Grace quickly latched onto the loophole in Moira's words. "Hah, I didn't say that. You're just making things up." Moira was still as stubborn as a mule. She once again diverted the topic so that she could insult and ridicule Grace. All sorts of vulgarities came through the call, and each minute that passed only pushed a person's limits even further. Grace felt nothing at Moira's words. However, Zaden, who was next to her, did not want to hear any more of it. He was on his last straw, so he grabbed the phone to end the call. "Are you stupid? Just letting her scold you like that?" Zaden asked, his tone sour. "As long a

    "Mr. Yale and his wife are quite old, so having children has been difficult for them. In the beginning, they contacted many surrogacy agencies. However, Mr. Yale was extremely cautious when it came to picking a surrogate mother. This caused a lot of trouble to the agencies since the surrogate mothers they suggested never met his standards." "Later, Mr. Yale thought about going abroad to find a surrogate mother. However, right at the critical moment, he suddenly found out that Mrs. Yale was already pregnant!" "The pleasant surprise caused them to give up their search for a surrogate mother. After all, Mrs. Yale wasn't getting any younger and they both went through a lot to get this son, so that's why the Yale family treats him so preciously." As Zaden listened to the report from his subordinate on the other end of the call, his mood grew complicated. The only way he could clear his mind was to focus on the fact that the night wind had blown his body cold. To be h

    Mr. Yale's word of thanks was like a knife stabbing into Grace's heart. How could she be worthy of his gratitude? She could not take it anymore and felt like returning to the car to escape the situation. Mr. Yale withdrew his hand in embarrassment. Even he, who was usually slick and smooth, could not find the right words to say at this time. Zaden tried to smooth things over by saying, "I'm sorry, she was one of the victims too, so..." "I understand," Mr. Yale said with a nod. "We understand and more than anything else, we thank you, Mr. Andrew. You've worked hard today. We won't take up any more of your time. You should go back early and rest. We will definitely drop by next time to properly thank you." Zaden nodded and turned to get in the car. Dulcie was all worn out from crying too long, so she was curled up in her seat and fast asleep. Zaden asked softly, "What on earth happened before I arrived?" Grace suddenly turned teary-eyed. The tear
