Lillian's POV :"Yes, but it doesn't hurt. Mother, don't worry.""He bit your hand. How does that not hurt?" Queen Meylani hurriedly waved at the doctor. "Quick, help Luna with her wound."While we were talking, Queen Meylani helped me to the sofa and sat down.The doctor began to clean the wound for me. Queen Meylani held my other hand and warned, "Chloe, you must avoid Ismail the next time he has an episode. Don't be foolish and stay in the room, allowing him to bite you. Do you understand?""Yes, Mother," I replied obediently.After my wound had been bandaged, the pain subsided. I persuaded Queen Meylani to go back to her room and rest. However, she was still worried. She looked at Ismail on the bed and said, "Why don't you go and sleep in Ismail's room? I'll ask Seth and Lena to come down."Seth and Lena lived on the third floor. They were probably fast asleep since they did not hear the commotion.I shook my head. "It's alright. I took a long nap in the afternoon. I'm not tired a
Lillian's POV :How was that possible? His drip finished two hours ago and I did not feel a pulse.When Ismail saw me standing there in a daze with my face full of tears, he pulled me to bed. Then, he pulled my other hand and placed it on his wrist where his pulse could be felt."Do you feel it? I'm still very much alive." He laughed.Yes, he was very much alive at this moment, but he wasn't earlier!I finally came to my senses. I hit his arm with both hands and yelled, "You lunatic! You did that on purpose!"Ismail grabbed my left arm in a hurry and glanced at my wound. "Be careful not to hurt your wrist.""It's none of your business! You b*stard!" I was so angry. I really thought he was dead because of my carelessness. I felt incredibly guilty, yet he was here messing about with me?"Look, you were the one who almost killed me because you fell asleep. Now, you're scolding me?" Ismail showed me the needle that had been pulled out by him. "If I hadn't woken up in time, you would have
Lillian's POV :I pushed the door open and walked in, only to find that Ismail was not in the room. So, I walked out to the terrace and stood there. I saw at a glance that Ismail was lying on the lounge chair by the swimming pool, looking at his cell phone.The weather was great that day. The sun was shining and there was barely any wind. It was a perfect day to be outdoors.I turned around and went downstairs.Ismail was the only one by the pool. It was so quiet that I could only hear the birds sing. The Amus family house was located in the middle of the suburbs. It was more than ten kilometers away from the city where the air and scenery were terrific. It was a great place for people to live in.I usually spent a lot of time by the pool but rarely saw Ismail there.When I was about to approach Ismail, I unconsciously slowed down and carefully leaned towards him. Then, I squatted behind him and peeked at his phone screen.I was sure that he was watching a movie, but I was wrong. He w
Lillian's perspective"It's fake." Smiling, I sat up from the lounge chair, raised my phone, and said, "It's just a virtual marriage in a game.""A game?" When Hazel looked at my phone screen, the surprise on her face became more intense. She turned to Ismail and grinned. "Ismail, you must have plenty of time, huh.""It's her influence." He jutted his chin at me.Hazel laughed. "So it was. I guess there's truth to 'choose your friends wisely'.""He was so bored and jealous that he went ballistic in the game." My voice got lower with each word. But he still heard me. He reached out his hand and pinched my ear, warning me to watch my word.I chuckled and swayed his arm off. "Did I say anything wrong?"The two of us chatted and laughed. We didn't seem as serious and cautious as we usually were in front of everyone. Hazel looked us up and down, then began to join in on the laughter.After a while, I finally remembered to ask Hazel, "By the way, Hazel, are you here for me or him? Is somet
Lillian's perspectiveOur date this time was surprisingly smooth. Not only did we go to Ocean Park, but we'd also had dinner outside. Then, we went shopping nearby as per my request.It wasn't until nine o'clock in the evening that I felt that my legs go numb from all the walking. I stole a glance at Ismail and found that there was already an impatient look in his eyes.Despite not wanting our date to end so soon, I could not put him through more of this. I could only say, "Come, let's head back."In fact, it was already beyond my expectation that he had not suggested this himself."Are you sure?" He lowered his head to look at me."Absolutely." I nodded.He was not interested in shopping at all. After hearing what I said, he turned around and walked to the parking lot of the restaurant.While he went to get the car, I waited at the exit.Next to the restaurant was a large-scale babywear store, which happened to be offering a discount for their anniversary celebration. I couldn't help
Third-person perspective.At this time, in a high-end bar, Ismail and Tristan were indeed drinking, but their main purpose was to catch up and not to drink, so their drinking was relatively restrained.Ismail looked at the time and was about to leave when a young woman suddenly walked in from the door of the private room. The woman was charming and had a blazing hot figure. As soon as she entered the room, she cast an alluring glance at Ismail and said, "Well, well, if it isn't the Alpha. I haven't seen you for a long time."Then, she made her way to Tristan, snuggled up to him, sat down, and put her red lips on his. The two tacitly shared a deep and passionate kiss.Crossing his arms in front of his chest, Ismail leaned back on the sofa and glanced at the two of them. "Your secret affair is still going strong?""Don't call it that," she said in a sing-song voice as she let go of Tristan. Then, she sighed. "You still haven't accepted me, have you, Alpha? You're breaking my heart.""I
Lillian's perspectiveThe phone was quickly connected, and the "Hello?" coming from the other side was mysteriously attractive.Hearing the voice, I sat up in bed and checked the number on the screen. I hadn't misdialed."Um... I'm looking for the Alpha." I hesitated. What was going on? Why was a woman answering his phone in the middle of the night?I felt a chill in my heart. Was this woman the friend Ismail mentioned?"Oh, Ismail just finished his work and is taking a shower in the bathroom. What can I do for you?" I could hear the woman on the other end of the line shout away from the phone. "Ismail, have you finished your bath? Someone's looking for you. Miss, please wait for a moment. He won't take long.""Oh, are you... his friend?" I was full of jealousy, but I was too embarrassed to say it out loud."Yeah, I just returned to the country." The woman smiled ambiguously. "Miss, you're not his lover, are you? Let me tell you a secret - I found that his skills have improved. I real
Lillian's perspective"Because... my physical needs for tonight haven't been fulfilled yet." Ismail said, pulling me into their arms and disregarding my resistance as they leaned down and kissed my lips.I turned to avoid his lips. "I still have something to ask you.""What's so important that you can't ask tomorrow?" He was impatient. Those two must have aroused him."Is your only friend a man or a woman? Was it the lady just now?"I hadn't figured out this problem yet, and I'd always wanted to know.He looked at me and said, "Do you think my taste is that bad? That I would make a promiscuous woman my only friend?""Then who is that?"He thought for a moment and said, "Do you know the young heir of Starlight Hospital, Tristan?""I don't." I shook my head instinctively. After answering the question, I realized that as a young lady of the upper class, it seemed a little far-fetched that I didn't even know the young heir of a big hospital. So, I added, "But I used to hear people talk ab
