A surge of fury overwhelmed Aster at the realization, but in the next second, a sense of helplessness replaced it. So what if Aster was infuriated by her current condition? In fact, she's unable to do anything to save herself. Who knows what Aster's state will be by the time she leaves here? Who knows if she will even get out of here alive? Immediately, a thought appeared in Aster's mind. She can't let them continue to treat her as they want. Yes, she had to end it all. Thinking about it, there's nothing left for her in the world. Her career had fallen. Her family doesn't care about her, and she doesn't have any loved ones either. She seems to have lived her life in vain. But in the next minute, a surge of unwillingness overwhelmed Aster's whole being. She's really unwilling! Yes, Aster is really unwilling to die like that! She's really unwilling to end in a gruesome way while Lotus that bitch gets to enjoy life next to Zaire Ludovic's side. Lotus, that bitch! Even if Aster e
“What do you want me to do?” Aster inquired and clenched her fist; a surge of hatred directed at Lotus and the whole Meyer burned through her. Aster gnashed her teeth and promised not to let this slide. She promised to repay them in folds. Venus leaned forward, her gloved hand holding the steering wheel tight. Her eyes flashed with a devious glance. “Lotus is pregnant,” she asserted. Upon hearing this, Aster froze, and her eyes turned cold. “What did you say? Lotus is pregnant?” The thought that Lotus already had a good life and a happy family when Aster's life was on the verge of breaking apart made Aster's heart burn. Aster scowled coldly. “That bitch dared to get pregnant for him? If it wasn't for me, would she be able to have him? How dare Lotus treat me like that? How dare she treat us like that when she already has Zaire Ludovic to herself…” Venus’ back unconsciously straightened, and her squinted eyes fell on Aster. At first, Venus was a bit suspicious that Aster might n
…“Okay. Nice meeting you, Mr. Baker. Thanks for the partnership between our company.” Lotus smiled elegantly, stood up, and extended her hand to shake hands with the older man in his late fifties.“Mrs. Lotus is very brilliant. I'm glad about this partnership.” The man stood up and nodded in approval. He chatted with Lotus for a few minutes before he walked out of the private room.Lotus picked up her bag and elegantly made her way out of the five-star restaurant.Lotus' eyes fell on the wristwatch she strapped on her wrist. She exhaled in relief when she saw that the time was 1:54 p.m.Ever since Zaire knew Lotus had gotten pregnant, Zaire made sure that Lotus' safety was paramount, among other things. Zaire was so protective that at first, he was hell-bent on Lotus not working anymore. Rather, he wanted Lotus to stay home.Lotus had to beg Zaire repeatedly before Zaire reluctantly agreed to Lotus working for three months. Moreover, Zaire left so many conditions, which included tha
Lotus froze, her eyes enlarged, and her blood ran cold due to shock, not expecting the outcome.But in the next minute, Lotus snapped out of her shock and made an attempt to take a step forward and descend the stairs to help Aubree.Although Lotus disliked Aubree, it wasn't to the point that she'd watch Aubree die in her presence!However, before Lotus could take a step, Aubree held her stomach in pain.Aubree's face had turned completely pale, and her lips had turned white. She wrinkled her face and bemoaned, “Lotus, I know you're dissatisfied by how things end up, but you don't have to go as far as pushing me down the stairs, do you?” Aubree screamed in accusations, attracting crowds to them.Aubree's eyes flashed immediately. She wasn't afraid that the evidence would be revealed; after all, it's famously known that the CCTV around the staircase was spoiled.Upon hearing Aubree's accusation, Lotus' expression turned pale, and her eyes widened in shock. Lotus only attempted to pry a
The instant the car came to a pause, Zaire picked up Lotus in a bridal-style and strode into the mansion at a long, fast pace. Upon seeing Zaire's cold expression, a certain doctor immediately took a step back and tried to remain as discreet as possible. Zaire ignored the stupid doctor, strode toward the bedroom, and entered the bathroom. He placed Lotus into the bathtub and carefully bathed the silent Lotus before returning to the bedroom. Zaire helped Lotus put on silky pajamas, tucked her into the bed, and placed a kiss on her forehead. “I'll be back.” He utteredLotus nodded her head quietly. She bit her lower lip and let out a hoarse whisper, “Thank you, hubby.”Zaire lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. “It will be fine.” He stated firmly, and Lotus nodded, choosing to believe in Zaire.As soon as Zaire strode out of the bedroom, Lotus took out her phone and unlocked it. Lotus silently tapped on the social app, and just as she expected, the news of her
“Lotus, that bitch. How dare she? That slut is truly venomous and vile. Luckily, that bitch didn't become a member of our Lynch family, or else it will be our Lynch family’s misfortune.” Lane Lynch berated in a cold voice, her eyes filled with loathing and her face wrinkled at the mention of Lotus.But in the next minute, her eyes fell on the ward, and her expression instantly switched to the one filled with heartache. Although Lane Lynch was sad and disappointed with how Dylan's marriage with Lotus ended, Lane didn't expect that Lotus would be as cruel to make Aubree miscarry. Lotus, that bitch is truly shameless and evil! Her shamelessness truly knew no bounds. Lotus already had the Ludovic family, yet she won't let their Lynch family go. It's truly their Lynch family's misfortune to be acquainted with a vile slut like Lotus.Ellie's face reddened in indignation upon recalling Lotus' attitude. Ellie had always been placed high with everyone fawning at her; when has she ever been s
“Young Madam, a lady named Aster who claimed to be your sister is outside the mansion and asking for permission to see the young madam.” The sudden words of a guard outside the room drifted into Lotus' ears.Immediately, Lotus paused the typing on her laptop, and her expression changed. Lotus' eyes squinted, and different thoughts began to pervade her mind. This place had always been secretive and secure; how did Aster know of Zaire's mansion? The more Lotus thought like this, the more her expression knitted due to confusion. A thought surfaced in her mind: something is amiss.Immediately, Lotus' eyes flashed with an indecipherable glint. It was the day before that the issue with Aubree happened, and now Aster mysteriously knew her way to the mansion; Lotus doesn't believe that Aster is simply here for an innocent reason.Lotus leaned back against the sofa, multiple emotions coursing through her. “Let her in.” “Yes madam,” The guard responded respectfully and strode away.Lotus imm
“Mom.” Venus bit her lower lip and cried out in a demure and docile soft voice as soon as she trotted into the Ludovic mansion.Upon seeing Venus, Freya's expression changed immediately, and the recollection of the day Venus schemed at Lotus flickered past her mind at that moment. Freya's eyes immediately held several mixed complex emotions. Freya had raised Venus before Venus left abroad, and she had always believed that Venus was as pure as she acted. However, the incident from a few weeks ago proved her wrong; how could she be happy?Suddenly, a loud thud reverberated as Venus fell to her knees; her actions shocked Freya so much that Freya's composed expression broke immediately.Venus immediately clung to Freya's leg pitifully. Her eyes pooled with tears, and her face reddened, her whole body trembling. Venus bit her lower lip and cried out pitifully, evading Freya's gaze. “Mom, I never wanted to resort to those evil schemes I've looked down on all my life.” Venus paused and sn
