“It wasn’t easy to get it, so please don’t reject it,” Ezrah said in a pleading tone, but Michelle was lost for words.

“I know the gulf pearl parure bracelet was sold for 31 million. How much did you buy it for? And how did you get the necklace, which was priced separately?”

The pair of jewelry was so expensive that interested buyers were allowed to purchase them separately.

Michelle could afford it but had a limit to her expenditures, so how could she allow Ezrah to blow so much money?

It was true what they said that women were the best financial managers.

For Ezrah to get these items from the original buyer, he must have paid double or even triple the price.

That bracelet was the most expensive in the world, containing 24 diamonds, 12 brilliant cut, and 12 marquise cut.

“Ezrah, this is too expensive.”

It was as if Ezrah had not heard her or had decided to ignore her intentionally.

“If you don’t mind, can I replace the earring that came with the bracelet?”

He removed the matching earr

    Michelle thought about the main reason for their appearance together at this event.To lure Piper out of hiding, she needed to make her jealous, and Michelle was grateful for accepting Ezrah’s gift.This was the perfect opportunity to make Piper envious. When Michelle had her accident, Ezrah was buying shoes for Piper, so how would she feel knowing he blew so much on jewelry?“He is very special to me, and since you are so interested in how much I’m worth tonight, the jewelry are all gifts from him.”Ezrah smiled proudly, relieved.Being special to Michelle meant he had found a way back into her heart, but this time, he was determined to love her beyond her imagination and spoil her like a little brat.The media representative was shocked but pleased to have this information, although other media outlets and paparazzi were also catching wind of it.She couldn't help feeling jealous. Ezrah Gannon was a man who had never been seen in public with any woman before, keeping his private lif

    A few days earlier, Piper received a call at her hideout.“Miss Henshaw, our men have been caught, and Michelle has been rescued from them by Mr. Gannon’s secret spies.”“What? Wasn’t Ezrah at the hospital?” Piper was confused and pained.Firstly, her plans had failed, and Ezrah had taken the stab meant for Michelle.This was a plan she had been plotting for a long time and only managed to execute when Rush provided her with the money.Michelle had promised not to take Ezrah back, but knowing her, Ezrah's act of heroism would likely win her heart back.“He is, but it seems he had already paid the men to watch over her before then, so the contract was still in progress.”“How is Michelle?” Piper asked through gritted teeth, expecting the worst.“She’s fine.”Piper was furious. She had known Ezrah before Michelle and felt entitled to him. How dare Michelle play the victim?Since she couldn't have Sebastian back, she wanted to eliminate Michelle and eventually make her way back to Ezrah.

    “Well, if I take down Michelle, who would know? I would just find an excuse to give Rush,” Piper thought deeply.After all, they were both on the same page.Her mother saw through her foolishness and tried to dissuade her.“That will not work. I…” there was another call waiting, and she said, “Mom, there’s a call coming. I would have to call you back.”She answered the call after her mother ended hers and was heartbroken.“Piper, didn’t you say that Michelle won’t give Ezrah a chance? The media caught them on camera.”“Ezrah was on the set throughout Michelle’s shoots. They arrived in New York together and were seen together going to one of Michelle’s stores,” one of her friends gave her an update.Piper’s eyes were already filling up with tears, and she wiped them before they had the chance to fall.By the time the gossip friend sent the link, Piper was completely broken.Then she saw the news about the premiere.“Whatever, Michelle would not live to enjoy the fame.”No matter the si

    Michelle stared at Ezrah. A lot happened at these parties, and aside from drinks, food, and interactions here and there, there was nothing really special, and she got tired of it all.Embarrassment filled her heart when she admitted to herself that Ezrah had really changed, and she was desirous of knowing more about her ex-husband, who now seemed like a different person.“No, let’s go home.”Ezrah was beyond amazed, and swiftly, he lifted her in his arms. “Ezrah…” Michelle buried her head in his chest shyly, as gazes pinned on her from shock.“You look so cute when you do that,” Ezrah teased. Michelle chuckled and wrapped her arms around his neck, not caring about the paparazzi who kept taking pictures of them.If Ezrah, who loved to keep a low profile, did not, then why should Michelle, especially when they were not doing anything bad?During the drive to the Gannons mansion, she could not tell if the things she was feeling were all because of the wine, but the more she stared at Ezra

    “Stop being so polite, Ezrah, just do it,” Michelle said desperately, eager to have him inside her once again.Without hesitation, his manhood invaded her walls like a pleasurable tsunami, breaking down every barrier and hitting her G-spot.Michelle felt fleeting desires of slight pain due to her years of abstinence, followed by a flood of desires rushing in all at once.“God, you are so tight. I hope you're not getting hurt,” Ezrah said with concern, groaning at the sensation of her warm walls wrapped securely around his member once more.Neither of them could recall how their first time felt, as they had been drugged. However, Ezrah had woken up first and noticed the bloodstains.Michelle threw her head back in pleasure but felt fuller than ever. “Ezrah, have you grown bigger?”She was referring to his size, and her tone carried a mix of excitement and discomfort.“I haven’t. You've just grown tighter.”He pressed his lips against hers, kissing her passionately and thrusting into her

    In a dimly lit room, Piper opened her eyes, her heart pounding with fear.“Help! Is anyone there? Please, get me out of here!” she cried out, but her pleas only echoed back to her from the empty room.The situation felt all too familiar, and she was desperate to reason with Rush.“Rush, please, let me explain. Just untie me and get me out of here.”She wished she had been blindfolded, as the darkness around her only heightened her fear.No one responded to her cries for help, leaving her feeling abandoned and alone.Surely, she couldn't be left like this, could she? Her hands were bound behind the chair, restricting her movement, and her legs were tied to the chair's front legs.“Please, Rush, I'm so sorry,” she continued to plead, but her words fell on deaf ears.Unable to gauge how much time had passed, the sudden flicker of lights blinded her momentarily as they turned on.The sound of footsteps approaching filled her with dread, and a familiar scent wafted through the air.No, it

    But what did Michelle mean by saying that Piper had brought them closer? It confused Piper.“Michelle, what are you talking about?” Piper’s shaky voice caused them to break from the kiss, and Michelle had a cute smile on her face.She revealed proudly, “I gave Ezrah a second chance because he saved my life, thanks to you.”Michelle wanted so much to strangle Piper but couldn't. She knew deep down that she was very happy, and for the most part, she had Piper to thank for it.For the first time, she was able to make it on her own, and not even Ezrah’s brothers would be able to call her a gold digger anymore.She did not hate them, but their behaviors were always out of line.If she had stayed and built everything with Ezrah, she would never have been accorded this level of respect.Piper was completely shattered.She had intended for Michelle to die so that Ezrah would be hers, so how had things turned against her?She didn’t expect it, given how cold Michelle had been before.There was

    Piper expected Michelle to be enraged, knowing that Michelle’s anger stemmed from the fact that she lost her unborn child, but her calm demeanor and words shocked Piper.“I was bitter before, but since I have Ezrah, we shall have as many kids as we want. But what about you? You will never get to see your daughter for the rest of your pathetic life in prison, and your daughter would grow up calling Madison Mom.”Michelle was already prepared for this, so when Madison called on her way here, telling her the good news that she was dating Sebastian, it was obvious that Madison was going to be Esther, Sebastian, and Piper’s daughter’s stepmother.This information was the last straw that destroyed Piper’s hopes.Michelle was smiling with no visible anger on her face.The best form of revenge was letting go of the hurts and pain.In the beginning, that was the trigger for her to work hard, and now that she got everything Piper held dear, which was wealth and Ezrah, it was the best revenge an

The bond they shared brought them unparalleled happiness, each genuinely happy for their friends, including little Esther. Zora and Madison spent time with Coco, leaving Esther with the men. The triplets were adorable, the boys taking after their father and the girl after her mother. "I swear, Zora, this is my first and last time. It hurts like a bitch," Coco said, as Zora and Madison laughed. "I heard women were designed for this. You did amazing, mama. Congratulations," Zora kissed her on the forehead and said. Months later, Zora and Ezrah welcomed their twins, Eugene and Eugenia Gannon, and five months after, Madison had a baby boy, Justin. Esther was the best big sister anyone could ask for.

    The day before, Rush had called to inform Ezrah and Zora that he and Odette had a son. Due to the distance, they had not yet visited, and now, he was meeting Lake at the hospital without Coco by his side.“Ezrah, what are you doing here?” Lake asked, his joy radiating on his face, but Ezrah was surprised to see him so happy at the hospital.“My wife fainted, and what are you doing here? I don’t remember the hospital being a place for happy people.”Lake laughed and made a joyful revelation. “My wife had triplets. Two boys and one girl. I was just about to call you.”Ezrah recalled Lake wishing for triplets; it seemed he got his heart's desire and something to keep his parents busy.“Congratulations, Lake, you got what you always wanted.”“Yeah, we found happiness. Congratulations to us, but what’s wrong with Zora?” Lake asked again, his joy fading due to the news about Zora, but Ezrah’s explanation lifted his spirits.“I suspect she’s pregnant. She refused to take the pregnancy test, a

    “Lucas, you are insane. I will never choose you over Ethan, and I will never have anything to do with you again,” Ethel said through gritted teeth. Lucas was furious.“Then you leave me no choice,” he yelled and pulled the towel from her.She ran to seek cover in the closet, but he caught her and pulled her to his chest.Ethel felt ashamed and furious as her naked body pressed against his.She tried to free herself, but he was stronger and also drunk.“Why do you want to hide from me? We’ve had each other many times,” he cooed in her ear, but all she felt was disgust and anger.“We were married then, but not anymore. Just let me go,” she tried to push him away to no avail as he tried to force some alcohol down her throat.“I was ready to be kept on the side, but you refused.”After successfully getting the alcohol down her throat and watching her frown as he forced her to swallow it, his lips were closing in on hers.Ethel felt a burning sensation down her throat, and as a woman who n

    Chapter 318 – I loved you before, but not anymoreA week ago, Ethel arrived home with Ethan, but he was called away to take care of a few things because Ezrah was still on his honeymoon.The past month and a few weeks had been peaceful, and with Ethel moving in with Ethan, she had no need for a bodyguard. However, on this particular night, things did not seem the same after Ethan left.Unlike his brothers, Ethan never had his domestic staff live with him, but after his mansion is ready, that will change.They were not only planning their wedding but also their future together. All that they wanted for their kids, they wanted to ensure they had it in the mansion.Ethel had gone to shower after a tiring day at work only to find Lucas seated on her and Ethan’s bed.“Jesus, what are you doing here?” She halted in her steps, right in front of the shower room door.Lucas looked drunk, which made Ethel scared. Before she could reach for her phone to call Ethan, Lucas took it from her and inst

    “Why? Don’t you like it?” Ezrah asked teasingly. Zora screamed, “Like it? I love it, Ezrah. I’m a lover of pools, but I’ve never seen anything like this before.”She couldn’t take her eyes off her room. Everything was natural, with multiple pools scattered around.For the first time, words failed her when she tried to describe the aesthetics of the room.It looked as if it were carved out of natural rocks.Even the footsteps around were made of natural black stones, and the water was crystal clear. She could also see the Mediterranean Sea in the distance.“To clear up your confusion, we are at Papa’s beach, and this is one of the most beautiful beaches in Greece. I thought you would love this as a honeymoon location.”Zora, though rich, had been too focused on business and revenge before. Honestly, she had never heard of this place.“I’m fascinated to be here.”“Great. Let me explain further. This is Calilo on the Greek Island of IOS. There are only 35 suites in this hotel, and each r

    The silence was thick in the air as everybody waited for Ethel’s response, which was not forthcoming.Feeling like he was just being used, Ethan had the understanding that she could not bring herself to trust him.“Dad, she doesn’t love me,” he said on behalf of Ethel. Lucas smiled, but his smile soon went stiff when Ethel responded.“I do, Ethan.”She saw Ethan freeze with a shocked look in his eyes and explained.“I mean, I never imagined having anything to do with my ex-husband’s kid brother, but I’m ready to give it a try.”“You do?” Ethan was so shocked that he lifted her in the air by the waist. “I love you so much, Ethel. I will prove it to you.”Their lips met once again, but they were rudely interrupted by Lucas. “Dad, how can you condone this? It’s shameful.”He could not believe how his submissive housewife could take an interest in his kid brother. This was unexpected.Ethel should have rejected Ethan and not this. However, his mother spoke this time.“You know what, Lucas

    “Kate?” Lucas turned in the direction of Ethel’s gaze, calling out accusingly, but Kate made a 180-degree turn and was headed to the exit when the man she came with blocked her.It was obvious that she was trying to escape the accusation, but everyone was interested in hearing what she had to say.Homewreckers were not exactly welcome at occasions like this, as every woman with a man of her own began to get protective.“You seem to be running away,” the man she came with said, not pleased by the revelation.Lucas walked towards her and questioned, “Did you kick her in the stomach?”Kate was covered in so much shame that her lips trembled because of all the gazes on her and replied, “It was an accident.”“No, it wasn’t,” Ethel interrupted, not upset but wanting to prove a point.“You said I didn’t deserve to carry his child because he didn’t love me. You were right because he divorced me,” Ethel smiled, no longer feeling the pain of losing her scum husband.Only Lucas had a pained expr

    From a distance, Ezrah and Zora watched everything unfold.“Lucas, I need to put him in his place. Can you give me a moment?” Ezrah was about to go to the scene of the incident when Zora held him back.“No. Didn't you say that Ethan seemed genuine with his feelings? Let’s see how he handles this situation.”Ezrah was unsure if Ethan could come out of this cleanly, reminding Zora,“You told me to protect Ethel or better still, let me get her bodyguard.”Zora shook her head. “Sometimes, the heart doesn’t know what it wants until the opportunity presents itself. Let Ethan deal with it.”Ezrah smiled and relented. “Alright. If you say so.”They heard Lucas mocking Ethan and Ethel. “Why? Can’t you kiss your woman? Sebastian has kissed Madison like three times already, even though they aren’t the bride and groom.”Indirectly, he was taking away the opportunity for Ethan to use the event as an excuse for his inability to kiss Ethel.“Lucas, how we choose to define our relationship is none of

    Everyone was excited for Ezrah and Zora, and right after the cake cutting, the couple's dance was announced.Ezrah and Zora had just left the dance floor and were speaking to some guests when other couples took over.Ethan saw it as the perfect opportunity to dance with Ethel, but there were other men eyeing her as well, and they were not afraid to show it.To make matters worse, they reached her before him.“Hi, I’m Rick,” one of them said. Ethan didn't recognize him from their company, which could mean he might be one of Zora’s co-stars.Ethan didn't like this but knew he had to be a gentleman to win Ethel's favor.“Ethel,” she responded with a forced smile, trying to be polite, and somehow, she was glad to see Ethan nearby.It was Ezrah’s birthday, and his focus would only be on his wife. Her bodyguard was there to protect her from danger, not lovers, so he was with the other bodyguards.The only man she had loved all her life was Lucas, and she had never had the chance to mingle b
