"Don't move!" The police escorted Hollie away. Eliza and Lyric were sent to the hospital. Fortunately, after the examination, Eliza's body was fine. But because she suffered a shock which affected her baby, she had to stop shooting and stay at home to recuperate. As for Beau, he didn't even go to the company. He stayed at home to accompany Eliza. "Why don't you go back to work?" Eliza really couldn't stand Beau wandering around in front of her all day long. More importantly, Beau always made some strange tonics for her in the name of being good to her. Eliza really couldn't take it anymore! Every time, she would secretly give it to the three children. But now, in order to avoid being fed by her, the three children had already left with Matthew and Roseane, saying that they would come back after the baby in her belly was born... "Doesn't it taste good?" Beau pulled up the corner of his mouth. "I made it following the recipe. Your bod
"My dear, you smell really nice..." In the dark, a man's hoarse and magnetic voice echoed into Eliza's ears. She was kneeling on the bed. Her hands were tied up with a leather belt and her eyes were covered in a black silk cloth. Now that she couldn't see anything, her other senses were even more sensitive than before. Trembling, she shrunk her body into a little ball as she endured the stabbing pain inflicted on her body. In complete darkness, she could only feel the man raping her from behind. "Now, be good. Let's change into another position, okay?" ...... Eliza forced her eyes open, only to find herself breaking out in cold sweat. She covered her burning forehead with her palms. It had already been five years since that incident. Why would she still dream about something that had happened such a long time ago? She rose from her bed and walked towards the bathroom to wash her face. She felt refreshed after splashing her face with
The study was brightly lit. A man was sitting at the main desk. Beneath his white sleeve, he wore an exquisite watch that matched his manly demeanor. Lowering his head while reading his documents, he had defined facial features with a pronounced jawline. After he flipped through a page, he said, "Retract the funds I distributed to Lawson's Group tomorrow." The butler bowed his head and said respectfully, "Yes." After that, the butler hesitated as he tried to take back his words, "Sir, I think... Miss Lawson seems different than the previous two candidates." During the day, it was the butler who invited Eliza into the house. She looked very pure and innocent with her bright eyes. On first impression, she seemed like a likable woman with no ulterior motives in mind. When Eliza first arrived at the Valentine family, she didn't talk a lot. The only thing she asked was what Mr. Valentine liked and disliked. It seemed that she didn't car
Eliza was busy preparing a plate of Japanese-style omelet rice in the kitchen. After spending more than 20 minutes in the kitchen, dinner was served. Aside from the omelet rice, she also prepared some delicious cheese croquettes. "Braint, dinner is ready!" Braint glanced at the time. There were still fifteen minutes left before 8 o'clock. He jumped off the sofa and walked towards the kitchen slowly. Then, he sat down in the kitchen. On the second floor, Demarion wiped off the saliva on the corner of his lips. He snorted. "I'm sure the food doesn't taste good, though it does smell nice." "It's delicious." Braint praised Eliza the moment he put the food inside his mouth. It was as if he had heard Demarion's comments from upstairs. Eliza smiled, "Really? I can prepare more delicacies for you in the future." Something struck her mind as she asked, "Braint, why are you here so late at night? Where are your parents?" "Are you Mr. Valentine's gu
The next morning, Eliza was woken up by the butler. The butler looked like a nice and kind gentleman. They met each other yesterday. At this moment, the butler was standing in front of her with a set of clothes in his hand. He asked, "Mrs. Valentine, why are you sleeping on the couch?" "You should get prepared. The employees from the City Hall will be here any minute now!" Eliza rubbed her forehead. Since she didn't sleep well last night, her head felt heavy. She frowned and looked at the butler with a confused expression, "Are you sure?" "Yes, I'm sure!" The butler smiled at her as he said, "Congratulations on passing the test. Mr. Valentine has decided to marry you. From now on, you are officially his wife." Almost instantly, Eliza came back to her senses. Everything seemed to happen too fast. She looked at the butler in shock as she asked, "Are you sure that he wants to marry me?" Eliza thought about yesterday. She li
Beau opened the door with a gloomy expression. The room was filled with the smell of alcohol. On the tea table, there were a few bottles of wine, which he had treasured for many years. Each of them was worth millions. Now, the wine bottles were completely empty. A woman with a flushed complexion was laying on the sofa. While cursing under her breath, she would occasionally mention Beau's name. She was in a mess. A trace of displeasure flashed across Beau's face. Did she finally reveal her true colors after becoming his wife? Hearing the sound from the door, Eliza burped and turned around. "Who are you?" She was so drunk that she had completely lost her bearings. When she noticed someone coming in from the door, she stood up to welcome him. It was a handsome man. He had a high nose bridge and defined facial features. "He's just as handsome as Jay!" Eliza thought. "Wait, he is Jay!" How dare he appear in
Looking at the cute little child in front of her, Eliza frowned as she thought, "He's hungry again?" She didn't think too much about it as she put on her jacket. Then, she went downstairs to prepare breakfast for Braint. While she was busy preparing breakfast, Eliza rolled up her sleeves, revealing her bruised arm. Sitting at the dining table, Braint frowned when he saw the red marks. When she finished preparing two portions of food, Braint fixated his gaze on Eliza. He had black and round eyes and his skin was fair. Besides, he also had defined facial features. Looking at his serious gaze, Eliza found Braint really adorable. She bent down and tried to make her voice as soft as possible. "What's wrong, Braint?" Braint pointed at her arm and said, "Did you hurt yourself?" After that, he jumped off the chair and went to pick up the first aid kit in the cabinet. "Oh, I'm fine, don't worry." Eliza took the box away from him
Braint frowned. He turned his head in confusion. "Daddy's not the one behind this?" Last night, the butler had made sure that nobody was in the house except for Beau and Eliza. If Beau was not the culprit, then who was it? The butler harrumphed softly, "Braint, please come with me." Braint gave Beau a suspicious look before jumping off the desk. Then, he followed the butler to the control room with surveillance cameras. In the control room. The butler searched for the footage of the corridors of the house yesterday. In the picture, Eliza, who was wrapped in a bath towel, stumbled out of the bedroom. She was so drunk she couldn't even figure out where she was heading. So, she kept turning around randomly in different directions. When she turned left, she hit a huge vase. When she turned right, she hit a decorative piece of furniture from beside. Eliza grimaced in pain, but she still insisted on screaming at a flowerpot located
