Catherine POV
The sight of the two of them chatting and laughing seemed somewhat ambiguous in my eyes, especially when the other person was me, Catherine. I've been entangled with Jaclyn Dills for so many years, and it wasn't until that night in the hospital that I truly woke up.
Jaclyn Dills had never cared about me. In his eyes, I was no different from those women who willingly approached him. The only reason he treated me a bit more kindly was because of Natash Yael.
I am a smart woman and knew that this path wouldn't lead anywhere. Even if I walked most of it, I could only turn back. Unwillingness was inevitable, but Natash Yael's outburst that night had frightened me.
Suddenly realizing that Natash Yael was not as easy to manipulate as I thought, the reason for her years of restraint was probably her concern for Jaclyn Dills.
Natash Yael had secretly admired Jaclyn Dills for a long time; my sister and I were aware of it. At that time, Nat
Jaclyn POV I suddenly realized that these short separations were even more unbearable than the two years of distance before. The ringtone of my phone brought me back to reality, and I glanced at it, frowning involuntarily. I believed that the Catherine sisters had completely exited my life, especially Catherine. The reason I didn't bother with her unscrupulous tactics was that I felt the best way to deal with a woman like Catherine was to ignore her. Besides, Catherine still had some pride, and I thought she wouldn't entangle herself further. So, seeing the incoming call on my phone, I felt briefly surprised but still answered. "What's the matter?" My voice was cold and indifferent, as if Catherine was an unrelated subordinate, and there was a hint of impatience. This tone instantly shattered Catherine's last trace of conscience. Catherine laughed sarcastically a few times. "President Dills is so busy that his wife doesn't know what sh
Natash pov This whole thing has been quite confusing from the beginning. Tommy·Fox mentioned that he pursued me, but I didn't really feel it much. He neither confessed nor wrote love letters, but his actions spoke for themselves in terms of care. Later, as I steered away from rebellion and straightened out, Tommy·Fox went abroad. Now that Tommy·Fox has brought up these old matters again, I've carefully recollected and there seems to be some indications. However, I was too young at that time, initially focused on capturing my father's attention, and later encountered Jaclyn·Dills. All my thoughts were centered on that man, neglecting those around me. Even though Tommy·Fox mentioned it a few times, I didn't take it seriously. After all, it was just a youthful affair, and so many years have passed. Bringing it up now only makes me smile, without delving into other thoughts. On the tenth day of the lunar year, Tommy·Fox suddenly ca
Natash's POV Jaclyn·Dills' rage surged like a storm, causing me to involuntarily shrink back. This version of Jaclyn·Dills was unfamiliar to me. Despite his usual cold and distant demeanor, he had always carried himself with refinement. The elegance he exuded seemed almost ingrained in his character. Until now, he had never acted in such a manner, not even during our previous conflicts that led to him storming out. The current Jaclyn·Dills had completely abandoned his composure and refinement. His gaze bore a multitude of emotions on the verge of eruption—icy coldness, anger, jealousy, embarrassment, and suspicion—all of which sent shivers down my spine. It took a moment for me to comprehend his words squeezed through his gritted teeth. He was asking about Tommy·Fox. I hesitated briefly, unsure how to explain my relationship with Tommy·Fox. My momentary hesitation, however, was directly interpreted by Jaclyn·Dills as something else. In Jaclyn·Dills' e
Jaclyn's POVJaclyn Dills furrowed her brow."Just explain what's going on in this picture, and I'll forgive you. No more digging into it."The word "forgive" was like pouring boiling oil onto the blazing fire in Natash Yael's heart. She didn't consider the consequences anymore.A subtle smile played on her lips as she calmly said, "There's nothing to explain. You flirt with so many women, create scandals, wanting the whole world to know. Have you ever explained anything to me?"My face darkened, and through gritted teeth, I said, "Natash Yael, don't play petty with me. We're talking about you now." "Talking about me," Natash Yael nodded. Years of grievances surged up in an instant, as if she had found the most advantageous weapon for counterattack.She smirked oddly."Alright, you want an explanation since you've already convicted me in your heart. Just like you think, I've known Tommy Fox for a long time. Do you know how long? Long
Natasha's POVI was lost in the memories of Perry's birth. Perry was born in October, during the windy autumn of the Red Moon Pack. It's rare to find a day without wind in autumn, especially in recent years when dust storms frequently visited, casting a gloomy hue over the Red Moon Pack's autumn. Even on clear days, there was a hint of melancholy in the air.But that day was truly a good day, much like the first time I saw Jaclyn Dills at home. I sat on the windowsill of my room on the second floor, not really daydreaming, but thinking about Jaclyn Dills I had seen a few days ago. He was so elegant, gentle, and charming, like the prince from the fairy tales my mother used to read to me.Lost in my thoughts, my face unconsciously heated up. I touched my face and, looking down, saw my father and Linda welcoming three people into the yard with smiles. I immediately spotted Jaclyn Dills. It felt surreal, like a dream. He strolled leisurely, landed at the back, stood next to a bamboo plant
Natash's POVTwo days later, I was discharged from the hospital. The set of houses my mother left me, though in an old building, had a good location, and the surroundings were decent.After discussing with my father, we decided to move there. After all, this house was purchased by Jaclyn Dills, and I didn't want any lingering connections with him after the divorce. When I mentioned moving out, Jaclyn Dills chuckled, "I wouldn't care if you lived on the street yourself, but I won't allow my son to be inconvenienced."His words left me somewhat speechless, and for a moment, I didn't know what to say. Sometimes, this man was truly difficult to understand. The speed at which we got married was faster than I had anticipated.I didn't tell my father much about the divorce. In fact, our marriage had no foundation from the start, and it was difficult to expect a happy ending. Perhaps this was a relatively good outcome, considering we didn't end up in a legal battle.I still returned to the ap
Joey's POVI never expected to run into Natash Yael and Jaclyn, the couple who had been through so much in the past two years.Everyone on the sidelines, including me, felt anxious for them. Finally, they had a child and a wife, and suddenly, they were getting divorced. Natash Yael, a childhood friend who had grown up together, exposed for everyone to see. The marriage was over, but it was evident that Jaclyn couldn't let go.The inside story was unknown to us, and we couldn't find the right words to advise Jaclyn. All we could do was take turns accompanying Jaclyn to drink, but drowning sorrows in alcohol didn't help.Today, I finally managed to take some time off to be with my wife. As soon as we entered, my wife said she saw an acquaintance and wanted to say hello. Marilyn didn't notice Natash Yael with her back turned, but she caught sight of Tommy Fox from a distance.I had dealt with Tommy Fox a few times before, and since we bumped into him, it was only right to greet him. Igno
Jaclyn's POVI find myself ridiculous, watching Luna bid farewell to other men with a charming smile while I can only hide in a dark corner, helplessly witnessing. This is not the outcome I desired.When I agreed to the divorce initially, it wasn't because I genuinely wanted to hand Luna over without a fight.It was because I knew that being too firm wouldn't work, considering Luna's determined attitude of burning bridges without a second thought.After all, I still had to consider Luna and the child in her belly, and we needed time to reconcile.In the hospital, I had already figured it out. Luna's words at that time were undoubtedly spoken in anger. If there was anything between her and Tommy Fox, it wouldn't have waited until now.Even though I felt a pang of jealousy, I couldn't deny that Tommy Fox indeed held an interest in Luna. Rationally, I knew Luna wouldn't marry Tommy Fox with our son, but it still gnawed at my heart.Especially after receiving Joey's call, I couldn't conti
The usually deserted art gallery suddenly bustled with activity today, as vehicles came and went, occupying the few parking spaces in front. Louis emerged from the war meeting only to find not a single parking spot available. He had to park his car in the underground garage of a nearby office building and walk over. His handsome features, commanding presence, and the military insignia adorning his attire immediately drew the attention of numerous people as he stepped into the art-filled gallery. The juxtaposition of Louis' military resolve with the artistic ambiance of the gallery seemed discordant, yet he paid no heed to the curious glances of others as he made his way straight to the reception desk by the stairs, where two young women in their early twenties stood. One of the girls, her cheeks flushed with excitement, stuttered, "C-Can we help you?" under Louis' direct gaze, her head involuntarily lowering. A flicker passed through Louis' eyes, a slight upward curl at the corner
On a sunny weekend, Jaclyn and Natash decided to host a rare family gathering, inviting some close friends and relatives to spend time together. They prepared a sumptuous lunch and a series of fun activities to ensure that the gathering was filled with joy and meaning.As guests started to arrive, the house quickly became lively. Familiar laughter and greetings intertwined in the air, adding a cozy atmosphere to the entire room. Children ran and played in the garden, while adults chatted in the living room, sipping rich coffee and enjoying leisure time.Jaclyn and Natash busied themselves with entertaining guests while also trying to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the gathering. They warmly conversed with everyone, sharing their recent news and joys. These friends and family meant a lot to them, and they had spent many wonderful moments together with their support and companionship.Lunchtime arrived, and everyone gathered around the table to enjoy the delicious feast. The ta
Jaclyn povI, Jaclyn Dills, have never been involved in things like chatting on Instagram, but Natash always likes to talk about it. In my opinion, what's the point of chatting with strangers on Instagram? If they're friends, just call them, right? But Natash never tires of it.However, now I have to succumb to this Instagram thing. To deal with this situation, I spent half a day sitting in front of the computer, finally registered for an Instagram account, and then added a friend who could provide fake IDs. When he asked me what documents I needed, I simply replied, "ID card," and then there was silence. After a moment, the other side replied, "We don't provide ID cards." I quickly asked, "Why? I heard you provide all kinds of documents." Then I added, "Money is not a problem."There was silence again for a moment, and finally, he gave me an address to meet in person. I felt strange. Now these fake ID businesses have become like spy activities, but I just wanted an ID card, and I rea
Natasha's POVOne day, Marilyn, Cecilia, and I were playing mahjong at Louis's house. When women get together, private matters are inevitably brought up. Maria glanced at Natasha Yael's swollen belly and asked, "You guys didn't use contraception, huh?" Natasha Yael nodded, "We did."Marilyn chuckled and pointed to her own swollen belly, "Then how did this happen?" Cecilia blinked, "How did it happen?" Natasha Yael explained, "We used a condom the first time with Jaclyn Dills, but somehow, it happened anyway."Marilyn smirked, "You guys must have been too passionate to bother with a condom, hence this little surprise." Natasha Yael blushed, and Cecilia remarked, "Jaclyn Dills seems calm and elegant, unlike Morris, who's so restless. He must be very gentle, right, Natasha Yael?" Maria nodded in agreement.Marilyn snorted, "You guys are so naive. These men are not gentle or elegant; it's all an act. They're wolves in bed. Otherwise, why would Natasha Yael have this belly? They haven't sp
Jaclyn's POVFeeling depressed again. Natasha is pregnant once more. How am I supposed to deal with this? Especially after indulging in rich food for over a year, now I have to go vegetarian? It's just impossible.After having our son, I often joked with Natasha about adding a sibling for him, but it was just talk. I don't want Natasha to get pregnant again. The nine months of pregnancy plus the confinement period, a whole year of dietary restrictions because of her, I've had enough.I've been careful, almost always using protection. And when there wasn't time for that, we made sure to take precautions. But nothing is foolproof. Sure enough, Natasha dropped the bombshell on me today.I must have looked utterly devoid of joy, which must have hurt Natasha deeply. She looked at me, lips pursed, and said, "You're not happy." Snap out of it, I thought, quickly pulling her into a hug and planting a couple of kisses. "No, no, of course not, Natasha. I'm thrilled! You know how much I adore da
Natasha's POVJaclyn Dills brought me to the seaside for a vacation, and it's been three days already. Apart from feeling very familiar with the outrageous bed in the presidential suite of the hotel, I haven't even seen the sunrise.Well, that's not entirely true. Sometimes, when Jaclyn Dills keeps me up tormenting me until the early hours, I occasionally catch glimpses of sunlight streaming in from the window. But by then, I'm so exhausted that I neither have the inclination nor the energy to appreciate the sunrise he has always longed for.By the fourth day, I couldn't take it anymore and directly ordered Jaclyn Dills that if he didn't let me out soon, I would go home by myself. What kind of vacation was this anyway?Driven by Luna's powerful resentment, for the sake of my future happiness, Comrade Jaclyn Dills finally took Luna out for a walk in the evening of the fourth day.The hotel we stayed in consisted of separate villas with a private beach, offering a high level of privacy.
Jaclyn's POVOne evening, after Luna and I had just finished a round of playfulness, lying in bed catching our breath, Natash, who had just regained her composure, complained discontentedly, "Jaclyn, why are you always on top? Didn't we agree that I would be on top this time?"I innocently caressed Luna, saying, "Didn't I let you be on top for the first half just now? You seemed to be enjoying it, telling your mate to go harder, to speed up for Luna. How quickly you forget."Natash blushed, "Whether I'm on top or you move, what's the difference when you're on top of me?" I blinked, then rolled over to pin Natash beneath me, leaning down to give her a playful nip before smoothly sliding inside her. "Hmm," Natash murmured.Leaning close to Natash's ear, I lightly nibbled and said with a mischievous tone, "Luna, your mate will tell you the difference now. When you're beneath, I can support you here, making it easier." As I spoke, my hand reached between Natash's legs, parting them forcef
Tommy's POVThe day I first met Natash Yael is forever etched in my heart. Her clear little face, those calm yet stubborn eyes, seemed to become the most profound imprint of my life. As years passed and time weathered, the memory of her only grew stronger.Love, viewed from the rational lens of science, is merely a biological program, a culmination of hormonal effects and chemical reactions. The initial ardor of romance tends to fade with time spent together, even to the point of complete dissolution after a decade.Though my time with Natash Yael amounted to less than a year, I never forgot her in the nearly fifteen years apart. Despite nothing ever happening between us, she became the singular regret I couldn't shake from my romantic history.Longing compelled me to decide to return home. Luckily, fate smiled upon us, and we reunited as I had hoped. However, I had already forfeited the right and position to love her.Jaclyn Dills will never know how envious I am of him. There was ev
Natasha's POVMy mind raced through a few twists and turns, and I reached out, grabbing hold of his shirt hem, and pouted while blinking innocently, "Mate, can't I just say I'm sorry?" It was my go-to move when dealing with Jaclyn Dills.Sure enough, Jaclyn Dills turned around, sitting on the edge of the bathtub, "What are you sorry for?"I hurriedly replied earnestly, "I shouldn't have gone to the nightclub with my friends." And what else? Jaclyn Dills' voice softened a bit.I blinked rapidly, "And I shouldn't have stayed out past ten.""And what else?""And... umm..." I racked my brain for a while but couldn't come up with anything.Jaclyn Dills' gaze slid from my face to my body, and his tone darkened, "Where did you get this outfit? I don't remember buying you anything like this. Do you know how ridiculous you look, prancing around on stage in that?""It's not prancing, it's dancing."Jaclyn Dills pursed his lips, "If this is the kind of dancing you're learning, starting tomorrow,
