“Ah, don’t come any closer! No… Don’t take my clothes off. No… No! Ah… I’m so hot. Kiss me…”Melina’s voice from the garage changed from a tone of resistance to yearning.Then they heard waves of noises that would make anyone blush. Sotiria could pretty much guess what those men were doing with Melina. However, she pretended not to hear and determinedly walked further and further away.If Zachary hadn’t arrived on time yesterday, the things she and those two men had done would go even further than what those two men were doing to Melina. Hence, she would never pity Melina. Melina deserved all of this!Sotiria, who was standing outside the garage, only had iciness on her face.Around half an hour later, the taller ugly man opened the garage door and arrived in front of Sotiria, looking very pleased.“Miss Green, we must thank you. Miss Shore is a high-quality woman. She looked so beautiful throughout the entire process. We just couldn’t stop. Oh, we wish we could have another roun
“Oh?”Sotiria smirked. “Who says I can’t? I hold the power in my hand now. You have no say over what I can or can’t do.”She picked up her feet once again as she said this and continued walking ahead.“Hehehe… What do you know, Sotiria Green? I’m starting to suspect that you never lost your memories at all, that you’re just using that incident to act like you’ve completely forgotten your scandalous past so that you could turn over a new leaf.”Melina’s foxy face looked even more enchanting and charming than ever after having gone through such abuse.Sotiria paused in her footsteps. “Why would you say that?”“Because I think you never gave up on Mario at all. Your main goal in doing this isn’t just to have your revenge against me. You’re just trying to make Mario and I break up. Then you and he can have an even more unscrupulous affair!”Sotiria felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave. She was cold all over.“Sotiria, do you really think I didn’t know about your scandal wit
“Mario had never taken any drugs before he got to know you, but you started to take drugs eight years ago. Not only that, but you also got Mario to take drugs with you. You even asked him to help you sell drugs. As a result, he was caught and sentenced to four years in prison for dealing drugs.”Sotiria’s body trembled, and she felt that she might vomit blood and die at any moment.Then, Melina continued in exasperation. “It’d be fine if he got arrested. After all, I would wait for him no matter how many years he was imprisoned. Besides, I thought it might be good that he couldn’t meet you after he was locked up in prison. But I could never have imagined that after being out of prison for three days, he’d meet you in our neighborhood that day. He not only refused to beat you up for me, but he also lied to me that night about going to buy cigarettes. He went to your house to meet you in private!“You know what, Sotiria? I used to hate you to the core in the past. I also know that y
Melina was tongue-tied. Yes!She knew her husband inside out. Sotiria was not the only fling Mario had. As far as she knew, he was meeting another four women like Sotiria as well. It was just that he was particularly obsessed with Sotiria. That’s why Melina channeled all her hatred on her.Even though she could not bring herself to leave Mario, she had also thought about retaliating by finding a few random men…An eye for an eye… Perhaps that would only be fair.However, she had never turned her thoughts into action.Therefore, she did not feel sorry for Mario at all after what these two ugly men had done to her under Sotiria’s order. All she was worried about was that she would get pregnant with the child of these two ugly men and that Mario would divorce her after Sotiria handed over this video to him.Smack!A grey-colored object fell beside her feet.Looking at the USB flash drive, a hint of confusion entered Melina’s eyes as she asked, “Sotiria, what are you doing?”T
Just how many innocent women had she hurt aside from Melina and Renata?In faltering steps, Melina walked farther and farther toward the Divine Sanctuary District’s gate. The two ugly men had left as well.Zachary, who was standing under the plane tree, continued to glue his gaze on Sotiria.Sotiria had already regained her composure. Just when she was about to leave, Zachary’s voice suddenly rang out. “I helped you get revenge, and you’re just dumping me and leaving like that?”Sotiria stopped in her tracks, but she did not turn around to face Zachary.“Mr. Connor, although I know you approached me with ulterior motives, I appreciate what you did from the bottom of my heart. If you hadn’t saved me yesterday, I wouldn’t be standing here now. And today, you helped me take revenge. Thus, if I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay you.”Zachary, who had a handsome face that even God was envious of him, pressed on. “You know what I want. You can repay me back now.’
Sotiria could not take even a step forward. It was as if her feet were cemented to the ground. She did not know how, but by the time she realized it, the words had already come out of her lips. “Are you serious, Mr. Connor?”Zachary, standing tall and stalwart, replied, “Yes. I’m serious.”“I don’t understand…”Sotiria felt as if there was a rabbit in her arms. “I know myself the best. You don’t like me. No! There’s no way you would like me. You probably dislike and despise me to the core. Just how much hatred do you have for Garrison that you’re willing to tie to a woman you despise for the rest of your life to get back at him?”“My desire to marry you has nothing to do with the feud between Garrison and me.”As the seductive and clear voice got louder and louder, Zachary arrived in front of Sotiria.The man before her was the most majestic and handsome man she had ever seen. He had an imposing aura that would send a shiver down the spine of whoever dared to make eye contact w
Zachary’s gaze had always been the coldest thing she had ever seen, but right now, there was a prevailing gentleness in those icy eyes. She didn’t know that a stone-hearted man like him was capable of such gentleness. She was so captivated by him that she wanted to just let go of everything and go away with him.“Leave Garrison, be my wife. I assure you I will take great care of you.” Zachary was the most regal man in Rothesay, yet his hand was shaking now.“Carlie, promise me! Okay!?”Sotiria’s brows twitched.Sotiria was snapped back to reality the moment she heard the name “Carlie”. It was as if a bucket of water was poured down on her head.“Carlie! Hah! Just as I said, you really treat me as your Carlie!”Sotiria mustered up every ounce of strength from her body and flung Zachary’s hands away. Her eyes were filled with pain, but there was a smile tugging at the corner of her lips.“It seems to me that you’re not all there, Mr. Connor. Then let me clear your head. Look clo
Sotiria’s heart had never stirred so much for any man before.She was a woman who valued her relationships.Garrison may have slowly entered her heart over the past few years, but she did not love him. The only reason she had agreed to marry him was mainly out of gratitude toward him for taking care of her and Naomi over the past few years.She had no idea what was wrong with her.She did not know if her innate “amorous nature” or “flirtatiousness” was behind all of this. Sotiria was now engaged to Garrison. She shouldn’t be harboring any intentions toward any other man at all.However, if Zachary had told her that he loved her when he proposed to her, she believed that she would have disregarded everything else and agreed to marry him! Then, she would find some other way to repay Garrison.She knew that this wasn’t right!However, ever since she had met Zachary, her feelings for him had been overwhelming her like a turbulent, uncontrollable tsunami. They had surpassed the bou
As expected, a video had been sent to Charlotte’s inbox.Charlotte opened it and found a video of her recent sexual encounter with Zachary in the car. She screamed and blushed furiously.Before long, she received a message from Rufus.“This exciting clip of you with Zachary is your remuneration. I will keep it safe and save it for my future enjoyment. Our debt has been repaid. You’re welcome!”Charlotte’s expression stiffened.A few minutes later, she received another message.“I won’t let anyone see this. Don’t worry.”Charlotte questioned herself.She had no idea how Rufus had managed to get this video. He was in a different city. However, she let go of the question soon enough, as Rufus had already sent the information to her inbox.The next day, at a high-class hotel in Rothesay.A black Masserati was parked outside the hotel entrance. As two bodyguards escorted a pot-bellied, middle-aged man out of the hotel, the driver hurriedly opened the Masserati’s door and said in a
“Lory…” A clear and melodious voice called out.A fair hand held her by the wrist as a car stopped nearby.“Zachary is openly making love to another woman in front of you. He’s obviously just trying to hurt you. You know this, so why are you still standing here, watching foolishly?”Lorraine shook her head feebly. It took her a while before she calmed down and replied shakily, “You’re wrong, Jez. Zachary isn’t doing it with her to hurt me. I’m nothing to him now. Carlie is the only thing that matters to him. He would never use tools to hurt me. He’s doing this because he’s so in love with Carlie that he’s lost control!”“Uh…” Jezebel turned awkwardly toward Charlotte’s car, shook her head, and said, “Lory, since you know you mean nothing to Zachary, why are you still torturing yourself? Forget him, and I’ll take you anywhere you like. Isn’t that much better?”“No!” Lorraine grimaced. Her eyes flashed hatefully.“It’s all Charlotte’s fault that Zach and I have ended up this way. I
The corners of Charlotte’s lips twitched. “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”“Why?” Zachary kept his eyes on her.There was no doubt about it. Not only did his wife have an extremely exquisite face, but her figure was also graceful and well-proportioned, better than a supermodel’s.The subtle display of fair flesh underneath her skirt seemed to exude a seductive fragrance. Her waist, which was the width of an A4 size paper, was slender. He felt an urge to hold her in his arms. She crossed her slender and well-proportioned legs naturally, creating a dark silhouette…‘D*mn it!’Zachary realized that the longer his gaze lingered on Charlotte’s body, the brighter the flames of passion burned within him, even though he had always abstained.“Based on Rothesay tradition, a man and a woman can only be considered husband and wife after holding a proper wedding ceremony. I know we’ve registered, but people will talk if we live together without having a ceremony,” Charlotte replied calmly
Charlotte remained sitting calmly in the car. She knew that this time, Zachary was determined to strangle Lorraine to death.Of course, she didn’t want Zachary to do it… But not because she didn’t want Lorraine to die. It was because Lorraine had Jezebel’s support. If Zachary killed her, Jezebel would do everything to avenge Lorraine.It wasn’t worth it for Zachary to plunge into mutual destruction with Lorraine. She didn’t deserve him.Charlotte knew very well that since Lorraine, who was a natural schemer, had the nerve to seek her out alone, it meant that she would have been prepared to run into Zachary and would ensure that Zachary would be too afraid to kill her.Thus, even though Zachary was strangling Lorraine, Charlotte did not exit the car to stop him.The car door opened and closed.Charlotte felt a bone-chilling aura throughout the entire car as soon as Zachary entered the co-driver’s seat.Zachary didn’t speak. Instead, he stared at her.Despite her intimate relatio
“What have you done?” Zachary’s voice was as cold as a frosty wind.“I’ve hired a few assassins. The assassins and I have had an agreement. If anything happens to me, they will do everything in their power to kill Charlotte and her two kids!”Charlotte’s entire body went cold as soon as she heard this.“Hehehe… Sorry, Zach, I misspoke. I shouldn’t have said ‘her two kids’. They’re yours and Charlotte’s kids, aren’t they?”Lorraine supported herself as she rose to her feet.In the past, no matter what happened, she would always do her best to maintain a good impression in front of Zachary, to show him the best parts of her.Now, she knew that his impression of her was gone with the wind. She cackled freely like a maniac. “Hahahaha… Look at that nervous look on your face, Zach. You’ve always been fearless, but she’s the only one who’s ever been able to make you lose your sh*t, isn’t she?”Zachary eyed Lorraine icily, his gaze as sharp as cold knives. Lorraine, whose heart was no
Lorraine forgot about the pain due to the intense panic she felt and stared at Zachary in disbelief. “Zachary, what do you mean by these scary remarks? I’m pregnant, yet you kicked me, disregarding mine and the child’s well-being. Could you be... Are you thinking of... Are you thinking of killing me?”“A wicked woman like you deserves more than just death.” Zachary’s cold voice slapped Lorraine in the face.Lorraine’s lips trembled, but she could not utter another word, as if her throat was being severely strangled by an invisible hand.Cough! A large mouthful of blood was spat out of her mouth, dyeing her white dress red.Although she did not feel pain or fear, her heart was glacial.She also knew that she deserved more than just death!‘But... wicked woman?‘I didn’t expect to be labeled as a “wicked woman” in Zachary’s heart someday!’As he was glaring at this pitiful woman, there was not even a hint of sympathy in Zachary’s eyes, and his voice still sounded frigid and merci
Lucas called not long after Charlotte put down her cell phone. “Milady, I just received a call from my ex-girlfriend, who I dumped last month, and she said that she just found out that she’s pregnant and she suspects that the baby might be my child... Ahem!“Therefore, I have to go to the hospital to get a paternity test with her as soon as possible. I don’t have time to drive Naomi back to your house, so you can either pick her up yourself or just let Naomi stay at the Second Master’s house.”Charlotte decided to pick Naomi up.As soon as she drove out of the yard gate, a crimson Ferrari dashed toward her head-on. She immediately turned the steering wheel sharply, avoiding a direct clash with the car.Braking harshly, the Ferrari hit the tree and killed its engine.Charlotte also stepped on the brake.The Ferrari’s door was pushed open abruptly, and Lorraine walked in front of Charlotte’s car angrily. She then pointed at Charlotte with her trembling right hand. “Charlotte Simmon
“Don’t forget who I am. There’s nothing that I can’t find out as long as I want to know... Aaaah—“Baby, you‘re hurting me. Don’t be too greedy... Oh, slow down, I’m on the phone. Oh. Ow—” The man’s voice was interrupted by a series of his own cries, and a woman’s moans were coming from the background at the same time.Charlotte vaguely pictured a rather explicit scene, blushed, and cleared her throat. “Um... I can call you later if it’s inconvenient for you to speak now.”“There’s no need. It’s convenient. Very convenient... Good girls, wait for me on the bed. I’ll get angry otherwise, understand?”“Hmph, are we less significant than your phone calls? Hmph!”“Don’t keep us waiting!”The sound of footsteps faded away.The man squinted his rare violet eyes and said languidly, “My little Simmons Princess, I’ve long heard people say that you’re still alive, and I really want to take a look at you with my own eyes, but I’ve sworn to never take another step into Rothesay. You should
Zachary looked at Charlotte through the window as a surge of pride swelled inside of him. “She’s my wife right now, so she’s your niece-in-law. You shouldn’t call her ‘that woman’ anymore.”The corner of the man’s lips curled up a little when he heard what Zachary had said. However, he soon reverted to his serious expression and continued. “Zach, even if she’s your wife now, I have to warn you. You have to think twice before you act. My great-grandfather, who’s also your great-grandfather, was framed and died in prison for offending someone from the royal family. Your great-great-grandmother wrote a letter with her own blood and came up with a family rule. The Connors are only allowed to do business. They are not allowed to deal with people from the government. Do you really want to break the family rule for her?”“Yes,” Zachary replied, his deep brown eyes filled with murderous intent. “I owe her a wedding, and I don’t want them to interfere with my wedding.”The man opened his mou
