The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Go and win Vespera back
Mrs. Strider sneered, "Elowen, you might be blind to it, but I see right through you. We're both women here – who can't spot a two-faced little angel when they see one? My son was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Why should he be anyone's backup plan?"Elowen's face turned pale at Mrs. Strider's mockery. She lowered her head, not daring to speak. Mrs. Strider was her elder, after all, and the lady of the Strider family – someone Elowen couldn't afford to offend. Unfortunately, Mrs. Strider had an aggressive personality, leaving Elowen speechless.Having said her piece, Mrs. Strider turned and went back to the warehouse to find Vespera. Feeling humiliated, Elowen could only slink away.As Mrs. Strider entered the warehouse, Vespera asked, "Mrs. Strider, where did you go? I've been looking everywhere for you. I thought you'd left!"Mrs. Strider immediately put on a friendly smile. "I didn't leave, just wandering around."Vespera finished packing up and said, "I'm pretty much done
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Why should she...
Mrs. Strider was fuming, her head pounding with frustration. She grabbed Zane and demanded, "Why did your brother and Vespera break up? Didn't you try to find out?"Zane shrugged. "Isn't it obvious? Vespera thinks Alaric's still hung up on Elowen, and he thinks Vespera's not over Quinn. Classic misunderstanding, just like in those cheesy TV dramas.""Go investigate properly!" Mrs. Strider snapped. "Has Elowen been stirring up trouble again?"Zane stood up, grinning. "Mom, I'm impressed you know what 'stirring up trouble' means.""Just go!" Mrs. Strider roared."On it, on it!" Zane bolted out the door.Back in his room, Alaric flopped onto his bed, mulling over what Vespera and his mom had said earlier. It seemed everyone thought their breakup was because he couldn't let go of Elowen.But Alaric knew in his heart that Vespera was the one he loved, not Elowen. Why did everyone think otherwise?Sure, he and Vespera hadn't been together long, but she was an amazing girl. She wouldn't accu
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Apologize
Alaric was left standing in front of a closed door, feeling a bit dejected. Vespera’s expression had been clear—she was angry, really angry, and maybe even disappointed. If she was truly in love with Quinn, she should be happy to be rid of him. So, why was she so upset?Alaric realized this was more complicated than he initially thought. Maybe his mother was right—this whole mess was actually his fault.Now that Vespera had firmly decided not to see him, there wasn’t much he could do. He headed downstairs, his face aching. During the scuffle with Quinn, he hadn’t been paying attention and got scratched. He figured he'd better head to Lysander for some first aid.When Alaric arrived at the hospital, Lysander was stunned. “Whoa, Alaric! Did you try to steal a landmine?”Alaric rolled his eyes.Lysander brought over the disinfectant, laughing as he asked, “Seriously though, who did you get into a fight with?”“Quinn,” Alaric muttered through gritted teeth.“Vespera’s childhood sweetheart
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Biting Alaric
The next day, Vespera still hadn't left her apartment. Alaric sat outside her door for another full day, fighting exhaustion and hunger. He was determined to wait just a little longer, hoping she'd eventually come out.Without realizing it, Alaric dozed off. Vespera called Lysander to come get him. When Lysander arrived, he found Alaric not just asleep, but burning up with fever. The poor guy had been sitting in that cold hallway for a day and a night without food or water – of course he'd gotten sick!Lysander had some friends help carry Alaric back to the Strider house. After running some tests and hooking him up to an IV with fever medication, Alaric finally woke up, groggy and confused. "How did I get here?" he mumbled, looking around his bedroom.Zane, playing on his phone, smirked. "Bro, you've had a high fever all night. Even if you're trying to pull the 'poor pitiful me' act, you didn't have to go this far. If you fry your brain, Vespera definitely won't want you."Alaric groa

Vespera glared at Alaric, her eyes burning with anger. "You jerk!" she spat.Alaric leaned against the doorframe, a pained smile on his face. "I'm not a jerk. Can you just hear me out?"Vespera stared at him, her gaze cold and distant. "Fine. Talk."Alaric looked down at his feet. "There's nothing going on between Elowen and me. I swear.""Ha!" Vespera scoffed, turning to leave.Alaric grabbed her arm. "She just twisted her ankle that day. I only took her to the hospital. I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to get the wrong idea. Nothing happened!"Vespera turned back to face him, a bitter smile on her lips. "Oh sure, you lied to me because she twisted her ankle. What's next? She'll get sick, need more favors. How many more lies are you going to tell me?""Ves!" Alaric looked at her desperately. "You know I'm not that kind of guy!""I'm sorry, Alaric, but I don't know that," Vespera said, staring him straight in the eye. "All I know is what everyone in this city knows - that y
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife For my girlfriend
The sales associate immediately crouched down to pick up the fallen coat, hoping to check for any damage or stains. But as she tugged on it, Elowen's stiletto heel caught on the collar. With a sickening rip, the delicate lace tore in two. The associate froze, stunned.Before she could react, Elowen smoothly shifted her foot away. Evelyn, feigning concern, exclaimed, "Oh no, what happened?"Then, as if by accident, she let her cup of coffee slip from her hand. It splashed across the coat, instantly staining the fabric. The sales associate nearly burst into tears – the garment was ruined beyond repair!Carefully gathering up the coat, she stammered, "Miss, you've damaged the item. You'll need to pay for it...""Pay?" Evelyn scoffed. "For what? This cheap thing? Honestly, I think it looks better this way!"Elowen chimed in with a smirk, "Come on, you tore it yourself. And that coffee? That's on you guys. Why should we pay for anything?"Evelyn puffed up with pride. "Do you know who this
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife Capitulate
Vespera glanced at Alaric, who smiled and asked before she could speak, "What were they saying? That your design isn't good? The fabric's uncomfortable?"Vespera nodded. "Yeah."Alaric turned to Evelyn. "I heard from my assistant that you auditioned for next year's commercial?""Oh, um, yes..." Evelyn stammered.Alaric smirked. "Well, you don't need to come anymore.""What? Why?" Evelyn's eyes widened. She had fought hard for this audition opportunity. It was supposed to be her stepping stone to the next level in her career. How could it be canceled just like that?Alaric gave her a cold look. "Because you won't pass. You won't even make it through Skyline's front door."Evelyn's face flushed red. She had never been humiliated like this before. All her life, she had been the apple of her family's eye. The entire Pendleton clan took pride in her. After entering the entertainment industry, she had quickly risen to become an A-list star. No one had ever dared to disrespect her. But now,
The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife I Came for You
Alaric nodded. "Pay up. Ten grand."Evelyn fumbled for her credit card, swiping it on the machine the sales assistant brought over. The assistant politely handed her the receipt to sign, finally wrapping up this mess.Red-faced, Evelyn rushed through the whole process, desperate to get out of there. She turned to Elowen, muttering, "I'll wait outside," before bolting out the door.Elowen couldn't tear her eyes away from Alaric. He had been hers since childhood! How could this Vespera girl sweep in and steal his heart in just a few months? Alaric was even willing to humiliate Elowen without a second thought!Even if she couldn't have Heath, she shouldn't lose Alaric too! She never imagined Alaric would one day treat her like a stranger.Vespera, sensing the situation was resolved but noticing Elowen's reluctance to leave, felt out of place. Elowen's hurt and resentful stare at Alaric spoke volumes. After all, Elowen and Alaric had known each other for over two decades – their history w
