You shouldn’t have done this, Priscilla said.
Priscilla took a deep breath and looked at him. This contract is valid, she said.
I was drunk last night, she said.
Fredrick looked at her coldly and smirked. You didn’t even think before signing it because you wanted to sleep with me. Now you regret it.
Priscilla couldn’t say anything. How could this happen I just wanted to erase the pain I felt and now another problem arose, she thought.
Fredrick sneered again and a hint of mockery could be felt in his tone. I already told you there was a price for sleeping with me.
Priscilla just stared at him blankly. I did not force you last night, right? We can forget that this ever happened. Don’t do this.
She was a woman after all what could she do to him if he didn’t agree, what the hell he has a marriage contract already. She was totally confused.
But what happened next was beyond her expectations. The man in front of her simply unbuttoned his shirt.
Priscilla followed his hand and looked over. A delicate collar bone was revealed under the shirt where two buttons were opened, and next to it were thick and dense love bites and scratches next to it.
It was obvious they had a fierce night.
It took effort for her to stay instead of just covering her eyes and running away.
What a terrible thing she has done and now she must face the consequences.
She suddenly remembered how passionate she was last night and her face suddenly blushed like a bright tomato.
You made this, Frederick said to her while pointing to the hickeys.
I’m terribly sorry! I didn’t mean it you know what, I can compensate you for your loss. I can give you as much as you want but this marriage let’s just forget about it. Priscilla said.
David, Fredrick called.
David came closer. Yes sir, he said.
With an iPad in his hand, after tapping the screen for some moment, he placed the iPad in front of Priscilla.
Miss Waals, this is the latest Peru's World’s richest men, and for your information, Mr. Lincoln’s net worth is fifty billion dollars.
Her jaw almost dropped to the floor.
She cast a swift glance over the iPad and the man in it was noble and cold and his eyes seemed to be piercing her through from within the screen itself.
She could not help but swallow hard.
“So you mean I would have to pay this fifty billion dollars for your compensation”?
Yes, Miss Waals, David answered.
Suddenly everything seems more like a sextortion to her.
She looked at the man suspiciously and found his face familiar.
Suddenly, she widened her eyes.
And she looked down on the names written on the marriage certificate and the iPad.
Frederick Lincoln.
What the fuck!!
She felt an atomic bomb exploding in her head and she almost jumped up from the chair.
The name of the man as always looked familiar to her only now did she remember who he was
He was the heir of the Lincoln family and the chairman of the Lincoln group. He has never left the Peru list. It was said that he was rich enough to buy the whole country. However, his background is always a mystery.
Priscilla felt silent for a while.
She thought fifty billion dollars was just a joke and now that she had known his real identity, she could not but just admit that he was worth the price.
She could only ask carefully. Ah... Maybe there is another way I can compensate for your loss?
The man in front of her frowned and his look remained indifferent and cold.
“Mm”?
Mr. Lincoln, I can’t afford to pay fifty dollars.
Then there is nothing for us to talk about. Fredrick's displeasure was obvious.
He cast a glance at David.
David immediately came forward and put together the files on the desk and withdrew respectively.
After David left, Fredrick looked at Priscilla expressionlessly and declared, this is your house from now on.
Priscilla just looked at him hopelessly.
“Can I at least go home to get some of my files and documents?” Priscilla asked hopelessly.Fredrick glared at her and said, “Three days is all you have got.”“Don’t think you can run away from me.” He added.“Three days is a lot.” She muttered under her breath.Priscilla let out a sigh of relief as Fredrick stormed out of the room. She quickly got up to leave the Mansion.Outside a black limousine waited for her to come out. As the chauffeur saw Priscilla he immediately came out of the car and opened the car door for her to enter.“Good morning Madam.” The chauffeur greeted me as he opened the door.“Good morning,” Priscilla replied.“There won’t be any need for the ride, I can find my way back home.” She added.“No Madam, I have to take you home and bring you back as instructed by the boss.” The chauffeur replied as he was aware of the consequences that come with disobeying Lord Fredrick.“What!!! he instructed you to such thing. Tell you boss I am not going with you.” Priscilla sai
Last night, Ryan did call her a few times, but she was with Fredrick and didn’t hear it at all.Priscilla did check the missed calls this morning, but she didn’t bother to call him back.After all, considering their current relationship, it was no longer appropriate for her to show concern or scold him.Thinking about it, she replied lazily. “Ryan, do you think you mean a lot to me? “Ryan was stunned, “What”“Why Should I have to answer your call?” Priscilla added.Ryan was speechless for a second. After realizing what Priscilla meant, he burst into a rage.“Priscilla, you are so ungrateful! I’m concerned about you! “ Ryan said.“Oh? Does Regina know that you care so much about me?” Priscilla said with a sly grin on her face.The ends of her eyes rose and she looked at him with a smirk.Ryan’s face changed slightly as he was furious, but he was unable to utter a word. Just then a clear sweet voice came from the villa entrance.“Ryan!” the voice called out.As soon as Ryan turned arou
Priscilla forced a smile.“The man was really good at lying. With such a strong concentration of alcohol smell in the car, how could he drink just a little?” She thought to herself.“He drank a lot!” She muttered to herself.However, she was not in a position to care for him and was too embarrassed, so she pursed her lips and stopped talking.David turned around and asked her with a smile, “ Miss Priscilla, where do you live?”Priscilla said her address for David to enter into the vehicle navigator before starting the car.There was a dead silence in the car. Priscilla crossed her fingers, her hands in her lap, and tilted her head towards the window.Perhaps because the aura of the man beside her was too powerful, Priscilla felt a bit restrained, and her entire spine was tensed up.Fredrick looked at her cautious expression and smiled secretly. “ Did you come to the Waals Residence?” he asked.Priscilla was stunned for a moment before she responded, “Yes.”“As far as I can remember yo
During that time, Ryan was so busy that Julian helped him handle a few cases perfectly, which impressed him.When Jillian returned from abroad, she accepted to lead the Public Relations department of this company due to Ryan’s begging.Since then, the agency, called Famous Entertainment, has hardly come across any major problems.Even in today’s increasingly competitive industry environment, it made generous profits.In just two years, it had rapidly developed from a small company on the verge of bankruptcy to a large media company that had no rival other than Anderson International.Priscilla was not a genius and had never been in this field before.Besides her talent, she had worked hard day and night to make such achievements.She did all these just because it was Ryan’s company.Ryan, on the other hand, chose not to disclose their relationship.At that time, she didn’t think much about it, and just assumed that he didn’t want their relationship to interfere with their work, so she
Priscilla looked at the watch in her hand with an expressionless face. After a while, she finally heard Ryan coughed.“Okay, time’s up, let’s start the meeting!” Ryan said.It was then everyone sat back in their seats.Ryan glanced at Priscilla, a hint of complexity flashing through his gaze. But in the end, his guilt and said in a deep voice.“Let me start today’s meeting with an introduction. This is Regina, I think everyone present should know her.” He said.The crowd echoed, “Of course! Regina is so famous in our country.” “I have always seen her on TV and never met her in real life. Well, she’s much prettier in person than on TV.” A voice from the crowd said.“No wonder she is the most popular star present!” Another voice chipped in.The crowd slithered, and Ryan nodded with satisfaction.“I called everyone here today to announce two matters. First, Regina will sign a contract with Famous Entertainment to become our important Artist from now on.” Ryan said.The crowd was stunne
Everyone seemed to understand it, and only one person raised a question.“Since Terry will be the manager of the PR department, what position will Miss Priscilla hold? The person asked.The crowd liked Priscilla.Ryan glanced at her and after remaining silent for two seconds, he said in a deep voice, “ Priscilla will be demoted to an assistant manager. She should learn from Terry first. There will be plenty of opportunities for her to get promoted in the future.”The crowd was startled and speechless. It was not uncommon to make mistakes and be demoted.But Priscilla had made great contributions to the company, and it was really embarrassing for her to get demoted after what she had done for the company these years.Priscilla finally showed a hint of sneer.Under everyone’s gaze, she calmly stood up and propped her hands on the table to look at Ryan, who was sitting in the host seat.“Mr. Smith, you said I lack experience in understanding the depth of the industry as well as connectio
Priscilla left the Famous Entertainment. When she left, there were a few co-workers who came to see her off, but most of them did this out of respect.After reaching the parking lot, she put her belongings in the trunk and drove directly toward the Smith Group.Harold was an honest man and had already prepared the transferring documents and Cheque.When Priscilla arrived at the Smith Group, Harold was in a meeting, and it was Ben who received her.There were three subsidiary companies under her name. Two of them were liquidated as she had requested last night, leaving only one.Priscilla readily signed the document and handed over her marriage arrangement paper to Ben.After all the formalities were handed over, the meeting Harold was in was not over yet. Ben asked her if she wanted to sit down and wait for a while to greet the chairman before leaving, but Priscilla politely declined his suggestion.She had already gotten what she wanted, and there was no need for her to meet anyone
“Assistant.” Priscilla got stubborn and sneered when she raised her arms, “What if I insist on trying it on today?”The sales assistant frowned as her colleagues next to her heard the noise and came over. “What’s wrong she asked?”The sales assistant whispered a couple of words to her colleague and they both let out a forced smile. “Miss this dress is newly released and costs 100, 000 dollars. Are you sure you want to buy it?” she asked.Priscilla sneered, “You asked whether I would buy it before I tried it on. Your shop is really good at entertaining customers.”“I’m really sorry we are trying to protect the interest of other customers. After all, the clothes in our store are expensive high-end-fashion, if everyone tries them on without buying them, won’t the clothes become a second-hand bargain. Don’t you think so?” She asked.The sales assistant smiled but her eyes were full of sarcasm and mockery.Priscilla thought that today must be her doomed day. How could she come across such
“Enough!” Andrei spoke out to interrupt him. “I know that it’s not easy for you either. Things have already happened, and the damage caused cannot be undone, I don’t blame you for that, but...” He paused for a while and looked at him with a stern gaze, “You should be able to investigate something like reporting a false crime thoroughly, right!”The officer was shocked.Logically, it could not be considered as a false report as they indeed found the drugs at the scene. It was just that they still needed to find out the real owner of the drugs they had found. As he was thinking, Andrei’s voice came out again.“The drugs do not belong to Gwyneth, so they must belong to someone else. The drugs appear out of nowhere, so you must find out their source.”The officer hurriedly nodded, “Yes, please don’t worry about it, we will find out the truth.”Only then did Andrei nod in satisfaction, “So, can she go now?”“Of course. Mr. Nixon, this way.”Only then did Gwyneth leave with Andrei.As expec
“Yes! If you still don’t believe me, you can give me a urine test and check if I have a history of drug use. If I don’t have a history of drug use, why do I bring it here? I know how important this occasion is. Isn’t it that I’m asking for trouble bringing such things in? I don’t take drugs as well! It’s obvious that someone had framed me and wants to ruin my future.”The officer thought for a moment.Then, he lifted his eyes and looked at her.“So, who do you think would have framed you?”“Naturally, the one who had reported it should also be the one who had framed me!”The officer sneered. He suddenly slapped the table and said angrily, “Nonsense!”Another officer next to him also sneered, “The one who reported you was an ordinary waiter. Why did he frame you? If you want to clear yourself, you better find a better excuse first!”Gwyneth was stunned.Before she could do anything, she saw the officer waving his big hand.“Alright, don’t talk nonsense with her, bring the stuff and cuf
“That’s right, she dares to insult you so unruly and openly now. If she gets famous one day, won’t she bully you?”“Right, you are her senior by years. She is being disrespectful to you by behaving like this.”Mika looked over at them, “Do you guys mean that you want me to deal with her?”The crowd hurriedly nodded unanimously.She sneered suddenly, “You guys think that I’m stupid? She’s now under Mr. Nixon’s protection, but you guys want me to mess around with her? Do you guys want me to completely offend him, or do you want me to be forced out of the circle?”At the moment these words came out, the women’s faces instantly changed.“Mika, we didn’t mean that.”“You guys know exactly what you mean!” Mika sneered, “I’ve been in this circle longer than you, so don’t expect to tackle me using that kind of provocation. Trying to make me a gun? You’re still a bit too young!”After saying that, she gave a heavy cold snort and turned around to leave.Priscilla and Gwyneth were pulled by Andr
But he was handsome and especially polite. When those girls saw him smiling, they would remember their pure first love. If those young girls in their set could meet him, they would feel happy for the whole day.The two met each other in the studio and got to know each other.Mico had a good personality. Although he was a new actor, he was very professional. He shot his photos very quickly and efficiently.When shooting together with Priscilla, he was also concerned about her feelings. The girls noticed it and quickly had a favorable impression of him.It was only after several main characters had finished their shooting that Regina arrived.“Oh, you’ve all finished shooting. I’m sorry. I’m late.” She came in with a smile on her face.The photographer was waiting for her because he had to take a group photo of all the actors, and he still had other work.When he saw her come in, he was unhappy and didn’t say anything.Regina was taken for her makeup, and soon she came out to greet ever
Although she had scandals now, she still had fame and popularity. If it was before, every director would come and invite her to play in their drama. How could anyone refuse her?All in all, it was that bitch Priscilla’s fault!If it weren’t for her, how would she have ended up in such a situation?The more Regina thought about it, the angrier she became. She clenched her fists tightly. When she felt the pain in her hands, there were already a few deep red marks on her fair palms, almost bleeding.Only then did she take a deep breath, slowly loosen her hands and call Terry.“Have you gotten any news from Director Romans? Does he agree or not?” Terry had just hung up the phone with Paulo. It was not long before she received a call from Regina.She was still thinking about how to tell Regina the truth. Hearing her ask about it, she couldn’t help but sigh.“They have decided. The heroine is not you.”“W-What?”Regina was shocked and her face changed drastically.No wonder she was surpris
If it was a rose, it would bloom sooner or later.Thinking of this, he rolled his eyes and a wicked idea came to his mind.“Vines, you’re interested in her, aren’t you? Her name is Priscilla. She is the head of the Public Relations department of Anderson International, not an actress. If you can persuade her to take the role in this drama, I will kneel in front of you! But if you can’t do that, you must listen to me. I will determine who would be the heroine. How about that? Bet or not?” Paulo was provoking him, and Vines couldn’t bear it.He sneered, “Why not? Let’s make a bet!” seeing him get hooked, Paulo laughed and said with pride, “Okay, then it’s a deal. You can’t go back on your word!”Vines snorted heavily. He didn’t respond and directly hung up the phone.The next day, when Priscilla had just arrived at the office, her assistant came over and told her that someone was waiting for her.She was a little surprised. It was just 8:30 in the morning. Most people in this circle res
“I do, but I’m not the director, it’s one of my friends. He’s new in the business and doesn’t have much experience…”“It’s fine. So long as the script is good, it doesn’t matter who the director is.”Paul chuckled.“Is that so? Have you called that friend of mine, then?”That touched Regina’s nerves.That up-and-coming director was called Vines Lucas or something. He wasn’t very famous, but he had a big temper.She was one of the top-line actresses in the business. Even with all the scandals, she still had scores of fans. It was an honour to have her participate in his works, but he refused?That man didn’t know what was good for him!But as things stood now, Regina didn’t have any better choices. From her roles throughout her career, this character suited her all the more.Knowing that Vines was Paulo’s friend and he was going to be on producing, she knew the quality wouldn’t be bad.It was a web series, but web series were getting popular now. This might turn things around.Conside
In the bathroom, Nancy leant over the toilet, almost vomiting her guts out.Priscilla ran in, she looked at her state, and almost confirmed her speculation right then and there.Her heart ached.She went out and took a glass of water in with a napkin.Stroking her back, she soothed, “How are you doing? Are you okay?”Nancy waved it off, shaking her head.It took her a long while to find her voice. “I’m fine. I’m all right.”Priscilla passed her the water. Nancy took a sip, she rinsed her mouth, and wiped her mouth off with the napkin before finally saying, “I’m sorry for ruining the evening.”Priscilla shook her head hurriedly. “What do you mean? You’re already like this, so forget the evening, okay?” After a while, she got a little mad. “Why didn’t you tell me when something this important has happened? What’s going on?”Nancy looked at her and knew she’d already guessed it. She bit her lip. After a while, she said, “You’ve probably noticed – I’m pregnant.”Priscilla nodded. “With a
Adriana had been observing her for the past few days.“Mom, since you know it, why would you agree to her being with Frederick? Do you know what others say about her? If we allow this kind of woman to marry into the Lincoln family, it’ll be our shame!”“Enough!”Adriana suddenly became angry. “Those are just rumours! I don’t care what others say. I only believe what I’ve seen in person. You must go back to Spark Land with me right now! You can’t stay here making trouble any longer. If you’re not willing to go back, you’d better not come here anymore in the future!”“But Mom...”“Dear, let’s go.” After finishing her words, Ariana took Anne away in anger.Looking at their receding figures, Stella was so angry that she almost puked blood.“Do you think my mother was bewitched by that woman? How could she trust that woman so much?”Hadassah slightly looked down, she was clenching her fingers. After a moment, she smiled.“Madam Ariana is always nice, so everyone looks kind-hearted to her.
