Grayson was pulling a long face and spoke in a deep voice, “Miss Lane, we’re just giving some friendly advice. Don’t go too far.”“Am I going too far? Even though you’re powerful and influential, you’re both too old to be pulling tricks like this. Please don’t attempt to turn everything upside down.” Anger surged in my heart, and I heard myself being rude.“Since you’re unwilling to listen to our advice, you may leave. Don’t blame us for playing dirty after this.” The expression on Grayson’s face changed, and he spoke in an authoritative tone. "Fine by me." Even though he looked scary, I had become immune after dealing with Tyler and Theo for so many years. Scary men could no longer scare me. I left the coffee shop right away. I was a little unsure about Grayson’s threat. After all, his network of people was complicated. Still, I did not take the threat to heart.Once I entered the company, Xander called. “Wandy, it’s been a while since we last met. Would you like to join me for

If there was nothing urgent, Doctor Lynch would not be reacting this way.“Come down first.” Mason hung up the phone after he said that I could sense that something was wrong. I grabbed my bag and ran downstairs without hesitation.Downstairs, Mason was pacing back and forth in front of his car. When he saw me coming out, he came over to give me a hand and said, “Walk slowly, you’re pregnant.”“What happened?” I saw the anxiety and fear in the bottom of his eyes. I could not be bothered about anything else and asked him.He helped me get into the passenger seat and fastened the seat belt for me. Then, he said, "Theo got into a car accident. He's in the hospital now."My heart skipped a beat, and my energy started to drain.“How is he?” I was startled for a moment, then I mustered the courage to ask him.“I have no idea. After I heard the news, I came to pick you up.” Mason looked serious, and he was speeding on the road.I could not help but hold onto the grab handle tightly.

“Stand right there!” Zedd’s unpleasant voice rang from behind me. “What do you think you’re doing, Wanda Lane?”I stopped, turned around, and looked at him. “Am I not clear enough? As a wife, I’ve done all that I'm supposed to do. Since Ms. Reed, the mistress, strongly insists on doing everything else that comes after this, I’ll take my leave. I know my place. Why is that wrong?”“Remarkable speech.” Zedd scoffed. “I thought you claimed to love Theo so much? He’s still in the operating room yet you can’t wait to leave. Is this the attitude you should have as a wife?”I could not help but laugh as I shot a look at Cindy, saying, “I do love him. That’s why when I learned my husband got into an accident when he was on a date with his mistress, I came as soon as I could to fulfill my marital duties as a wife to sign the consent form so his treatment wouldn’t be delayed. This will be the last time I show affection toward him.”“Wanda Lane, you cruel woman! You don't deserve to be Theowy

“Come in.” I sat up straight and brightened up, thinking that it would be another employee.Instead, Xander pushed open my door. He had a mask and a cap on. He was like a thief sneaking in, crouching on the floor. He closed the door behind him.“I was almost caught, it was so scary!” Once he sat down on the chair, he lightly hammered his chest and exclaimed loudly.“You’re dressed like this on a hot and sunny day. You’ll only garner more attention.” I looked at his outfit and frowned.“What can I do? Fans used to chase after me because they love me. Now, I’m being chased around by paparazzi, reporters, and whoever else wants to take photos of me.” Xander was sprawled in the chair with an expression that seemed to say he was better off dead.He was being seriously slandered recently, causing all his work to come to a screeching halt. He had stopped showing his face in public settings as well. People were desperate to take his photos. The paparazzi were hoping to take scandalous pho

Click! The noise came from his phone that was facing me.I frowned. “Why are you taking photos of me?”“You look good! The photo of you standing below the sunset is incredibly beautiful. It’s a shame you’re not a celebrity.” Xander waved the phone in his hands and laughed.I did not want to be petty with him, so I turned and continued walking. It was remarkably stunning here, like a whole new world. It made one feel carefree and relaxed, allowing people to forget about their problems as they indulged in their joyful moods. Xander kept his phone and walked beside me. “If you like it here, I’ll bring you here more often.”“Thanks.” I did like it here, but it was not necessary for me to come with him. If we were caught on camera again, things would be over for us.As if he could sense my worries, he kept mum. Neither of us spoke as we walked side by side in silence. This place was secluded to begin with, and it was especially quiet with not many people around. Hence, we could rest

“Well, not every woman is so picky. They do have their own considerations as well. As a woman, the focus isn’t on the food trucks by the roadside but the intention of the person who brought them there.” I said faintly.“What do you mean?” Xander lifted his eyes and looked at me.“For example, you brought me here today to share this good find with me. We’re friends, and I'm grateful. However, if you were someone I had just met or am unfamiliar with, I’d have two thoughts about this. It’s either you’re trying to test me, or you don’t respect me. It’s entirely different.“Since we’re friends, I appreciate your gesture, since it’s not easy to find someone who would share nice things with you. But if we were mere acquaintances, do you think I’d still open myself up to you as a woman?”“Did Theo Grant ever test you before? Are you a materialistic woman in his heart?” Xander asked abruptly, his quiet gaze boring into me.I paused. Would he think so?He would, I guess. I remember him men

It was Cindy.She was arranging clothes on the sofa. They were all Theo’s clothes.Miss Woods whispered in my ear, “She was already here when I got back. She went to the second floor and grabbed all these clothes from the room.”I walked over and stared coldly at her. She glared at me without a word. She then turned around and ordered Miss Woods. “Go get Theowy’s toothbrush and shaver.”Miss Woods looked at me, not budging.I took out my phone and called 911.“Hello, I’d like to make a report to the police. Someone is trespassing private property. Please send someone to investigate this matter.” Then, I gave them my house address.“Shut up, Wanda Lane!” Cindy stared at me incredulously after she heard me call the police. She got up and tried to snatch my phone away.I angled myself to dodge her attack and continued, “Please hurry.”After hanging up, I stared at Cindy and said, “This is my house, please leave. Or when the police come, things will get ugly.”Cindy’s face was fl

I wanted to ignore it, but the person behind the door seemed very persistent as the doorbell kept ringing.It may be a villa, but since it was a terrace, the sound of the doorbell was loud and crisp in the dead of night. To prevent my neighbors from getting disturbed, I changed and went down to open the door.As I went down, I peeked at the security camera and was surprised to see Mason standing outside the door.It was so late. Theo was not home, so why was he here?Feeling confused, I opened the door and went out. “Doctor Lynch, it’s late. How may I help you?”Mason glared at me and grunted irritably. “Why didn’t you pick up your phone?”Only just realizing that I had left my phone upstairs, I replied hastily, “Sorry, my phone wasn’t with me. What happened?”“Can both of you not include outsiders in your lovers’ bicker?” Right after he finished his sentence, he went into the house and lay on the sofa. He looked exhausted, and his eyes were bleary like he had been forcefully ya
