Sotiria pushed the door of the women's restroom hurriedly, and she heard an unfamiliar male voice as soon as she stepped into the restroom. “Ms. Green, you’re finally here. We’ve been waiting for you for quite some time already.”Sotiria suspected that this was an auditory hallucination. However, she looked up and saw two men in white suits standing not far away from her.‘Wait a minute! What are these two men doing in the women’s restroom?! Did the voice just say that they’ve been waiting for me?’Before Sotiria could get back to her senses, the two men had already approached her at the same time.Sotiria turned around and wanted to run away. However, her legs felt all wobbly and weakened at that moment. As she wanted to escape in a hurry, not only could she not take another step forward after taking the first small step, but she almost collapsed on the floor.“Aaaah!” Her soft and tender arm was grasped by the man abruptly.Her body shook violently in the next moment, and she w
Sotiria’s fingers trembled, and her eyebrows jumped. “I don’t think there are any grudges between us, so why are you trying to harm me?”The man who was pressing Sotiria against the wall gave off a wide and wicked smirk. “Because we’re both men that you abandoned mercilessly before this, and we want revenge.”‘Holy sh*t!’Sotiria felt her soul trembling.‘Look at these two men! Not only are they extremely ugly, but the brunette man also looks like he has just crawled out of a pile of coal. I’ve heard that I wasn’t picky in the past whenever it came to men, but... I didn’t expect myself to be this casual that I didn’t even feel disgusted by these men?’“Puff—” Seeing Sotiria’s expression, the man who was standing at the side could not help but laugh out loud. “Ms. Green, I heard that you’re as promiscuous on the outside as you’re on the inside, but I didn’t expect you to also have such an innocent side too. We were just joking with you, and you actually believed it.”‘What!?’ Soti
“Starting from the fifth floor, there are plenty of guest rooms in this hotel. You’ll reserve one of them and bring her there to rest. Keep in mind that I’ll follow up on this matter. If I find out that you didn’t do as I said, or you still violate her when you’re sending her to the guest room, you’ll become the official targets of Zachary Connor. I’ll make you beg for a swift death when the time comes.” Zachary’s voice sounded extremely indifferent.The two men were so frightened as if they had heard a clap of thunder.‘Zachary Connor! He turns out to be the most frightening devil in disguise of Rothesay. No wonder his aura was so powerful and formidable.’No matter how bold they were, they would not dare to offend Mr. Connor. It seemed that they would not be able to earn some extra cash today! They had to do what Mr. Connor said—reserve a room and send Sotiria there to rest!As for Zachary, he turned around unconcernedly and walked away in huge strides after saying so.“Zachary.
A pair of silhouettes hugged each other.The bathroom, which had been damp and cold originally, seemed to have been filled up with waves of warm tide and vapor, and the open door was swaying with the wind.Elizabeth was sitting in the car with a laptop on her thigh. She was looking at the video being played on the screen in disbelief at the moment. “Mother, I told you yesterday that Sotiria is very lucky and tough. She should’ve died last time, but Zenios saved her, and she should’ve been violated by the two brunette brothers this time, but instead of being ruined, she took advantage of Mr. Connor to such an extent! Sigh! Our plan failed, so let’s go!”She wanted to close the lid of the laptop angrily.However, Virginia grabbed her hand abruptly when she was about halfway there. “Who told you that our plan failed today? This scene is much more exciting than we anticipated originally.”Elizabeth looked panicked. “Mother, I know what you’re thinking, but please don’t forget that the
The technician hurried to check on the situation, thinking that the screen had malfunctioned. However, he had just taken two steps when the screen lit up again. He hadn’t even had time to catch his breath before he let out a cry as soon as he saw the content aired on-screen. His eyeballs nearly popped out of their sockets. Meanwhile, someone let out a scream at a higher decibel.“Oh my God! Look at the screen! Scandalous!”A large wave of eyes was attracted to the screen. Then, they heard panicked cries and all sorts of cutlery and wine glasses crashing onto the ground. Even Garrison couldn’t help turning his head to look. When he laid eyes on the video on screen, he felt as if a large hand had circled around his throat. At that very moment, a video was being played on screen.The main lead in the video was Sotiria!No! More accurately speaking, it was Sotiria and Zachary!In that video, Zachary was sitting on the toilet seat cover with Sotiria sitting on top of him. Her a
“All of you, stop right there!”Garrison’s magnetic yet melodious voice immediately rang aloud. “If any of you step one foot out of this hall, I will cut him or her off at once!”The 30 or so people immediately halted. The ones who had been cursing Sotiria fell silent too. The large hall immediately became as silent as an abyss. “Gary!”The person who had spoken was Garrison’s good friend, Jonathan Roy, one of the people who were making their way to “catch them in the act”.He stared at Garrison sympathetically.“I’ve personally watched how much you’ve indulged Sotiria over the past four years. She would’ve lost her life four years ago if you hadn’t risked everything to save her. You’re more than the nicest person in the world to her, and you saved her life too. But turn around and look at what she’s done to you? She’s not even human. She doesn’t deserve your love. What on earth could you possibly love about her? Look at how she’s humiliated you, and you’re still trying to p
Garrison had to support Sotiria!“Mr. Larson? Are you alright? Do you need help?” A staff member who had just passed him by hurried over to help him up. However, just as the tips of his fingers touched Garrison’s clothes, he quietly pushed his hand away.“I’m fine. I don’t need anyone’s help.”He forced himself to his feet, stood in his spot for a while, and let the tears in his eyes dry. Then, he picked up his feet again and headed toward the washroom next to the restroom. The video from the screen repeatedly flashed in his mind like a traffic light.He knew that it was all real.He knew that at this very moment, that scene was still being played out in the ladies’ washroom.However, he still did not have the nerve to face it. Deep down, it felt as if there was a voice attempting to lie to himself… Perhaps that video really was faked by someone. Maybe it really was a prank…The door in the ladies’ washroom was wide open. Garrison drew closer and closer to that door and felt
Zachary had anticipated Garrison’s attack. He moved his head up and avoided the blow.Garrison refused to give up. He was about to hit him again when Zachary’s fist landed firmly on Garrison’s face.“Argh!”Zachary’s strength was shocking. Even Garrison, who was as strong as a mountain, could not withstand that blow. He let out a cry and landed face-first on the floor. A steak of fiery-red blood trickled down the corners of his mouth. “A few days ago, you hit me in the face in my own home. I let you off that one time on account of the fact that we were once friends. However, I will never let you do that to me again.”Zachary rubbed his right hand.Obviously, Garrison was hard and strong. Hitting Garrison made his fist hurt more than hitting anyone else.“Friends? Hehe! I would’ve forgotten if you hadn’t mentioned that we were once friends!”Garrison lifted his hand and wiped the blood off the corner of his lips. His smooth, thin, porcelain lips were now tinged in red, adding a
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
