The truth has been revealed. She wasn't going to wait for Aleandro's humiliation to kick her out of the mansion. She will go by herself.Suddenly, her cell phone rang. She picked it up after seeing that it was a call from the hospital where Yunifer's adoptive mother was being treated."Is this Miss Jenkins?" A female voice asked politely."Right, did something happen to my mother?" Yuriel still uses Yunifer's identity when dealing with her adoptive parents."Mrs. Jenkins is suddenly critical and requires surgery. We're calling to ask for your consent to perform the operation.""Okay, I'll be right there."..Yuriel looked at the old woman lying on the hospital bed. Her body is thin with a variety of medical devices to support her life.A doctor spoke in front of her, reporting the results of Mrs. Jenkins' medical examination. Mrs. Jenkins suffered from heart failure two years ago. Two hours ago, a vessel in her heart suddenly burst, and she needed surgery urgently."No matter what it
She left the orphanage at the age of 18 to live independently. The orphanage building hadn't changed much from what she remembered.This is the place where she spent her childhood in poverty. Fight for a piece of clothing or food with other children. Hopefully, one day her biological parents will come looking for her.But unfortunately, dreams are just dreams. People who have abandoned their children will not come looking for them.Yuriel shook with cold as the weather turned cold. Currently, she has no other place to live. The contracted house had previously been rented out to someone else. The orphanage was the only place that could accommodate her.However, Yuriel felt doubtful and didn't know how to explain it to the head of the orphanage because in people's eyes, she was already dead.Yunifer died under the identity of Yuriel. She didn't want to scare the orphanage children with her sudden appearance.A white chip fell on Yuriel's sleeve."Snow?" She blinked and looked up at the
She suddenly stopped in her tracks as she was about to turn. She saw Aunt Marry seeming to be arguing with a fat woman she recognized as Mrs. Zoe, the head of the orphanage."Mrs. Hanna, please let Riel stay just a few days. She has nowhere to live." Aunt Mary's voice sounded pleading."Marry, it's not that I want to kick her out. But the orphanage could no longer add people to feed. If she can't pay the rent tonight, tell her to leave tomorrow morning! " Hanna grumbled."Riel is a child who grew up in here, and the orphanage is like her home. How can you make her pay the rent?""Marry, You know, the orphanage is underfunded. Do not add to the burden by carrying other people again. I've tolerated letting her twin sister be buried behind the hill, and now no one is interested in buying the land anymore." Mrs. Hanna glared at Aunt Marry with displeasure."Tell her to pay the rent or leave tomorrow morning!" After saying that she turned towards her office."Mrs. Zoe!" Aunt Mary chased af
"Wendy is really lucky to have such a generous and handsome foster father like you." In a high tone, Mrs. Zoe flattered Mr. Smith.Yuriel secretly sneered inwardly. Mrs. Zoe has always been proud and arrogant. When faced with money, she will flatter people to the sky.Mrs. Zoe continued to flatter Mr. Smith and bent down to serve two cups of tea on the table. Yuriel pretended not to hear. She turned her gaze to the middle-aged man who had adopted Wendy.He wasn't as handsome as Mrs. Hanna said he was. He was fat and short, his head was completely bald. In his hand was a full hand of gold rings.Yuriel frowned as he saw the fat hands full of fur wrapped around Wendy's waist and squeezed them several times. This is not the attitude a parent should have towards a child. This is the act of a pedophile.She then looked at Wendy. The tiny girl's body trembled, and she showed her head, so Yuriel couldn't see the look on her face."Haha, Mrs. Zoe is flattering too much. I've been a donor ever
"Shut up! If you keep screaming, we won't hesitate to rape you in the car!" The man next to her threatened, she laughed carelessly, stroking Yuriel's pretty face, which had turned pale.With a perverted gaze, he licked his lower lip while lustfully exploring Yuriel's body."If you don't satisfy Mr. Smith, hehe, be prepared for him to hand you over to us. So, little girl, be obedient and refrain from rebelling."Several men in the car burst out laughing.Yuriel turned away from the man's filthy hands, disgusted. She was terrified by his words and no longer rebelled.In her panic, she prayed quietly and planned an escape.After a half-hour drive, they arrived at a large and luxurious villa. Yuriel was led in through a long corridor and into a room with double doors."We've brought her Mr. Smith." One of the men clutching Yuriel knocked on the door.Two women in mini-dresses opened the double doors. They are between the ages of 15 and 16. She lowered her head, not daring to look around t
Killing him would be tantamount to getting rid of one of the scum in the world and saving more lives.Yuriel peeked from behind Aleandro's body. She turned away from the blood on the floor because it made her sick."Forget it, it's too easy for him to die."She didn't want to see people die because of it. But that doesn't mean she's going to let Mr. Smith get away with it when she remembers how the pig threw a glass at Wendy's head and made the little girl bleed badly."Right, it's too easy for him to die painlessly." Aleandro nodded in agreement."Then I will make him feel alive but dead," he continued, with a cruel smile on his face.His eyes were filled with bloodlust and icy cold as he stared at Mr. Smith, who was trembling with fear.Yuriel blinked at him. He had never seen her expression so cruel and bloodthirsty. Somehow, he felt fear in his heart."Dare to touch my wife, I will make you pay the right price. Which hand did you touch it with? right? Left? Oh, it's better to brea
"Open your blanket, I will clean the blood from your body."Yuriel's face flushed, and she gripped the blanket in front of him tightly."I... I can do it! I'm taking a bath!" She stood up, wanting to use the restroom.But Aleandro knelt and gripped her shoulders. He murmured next to her ear."Honey, be obedient, okay?" he said sensually."If you take a shower right now, you'll get hurt. Let yourself to be vulnerable in front of me. I'll take it slowly," he enticed with lethal seduction. Increase the allure by blowing on the nape and kissing the earlobe.Yuriel was covered in goosebumps. Her hands shook as she held the blanket in front of her chest. She lowered her blanket as if hypnotized. Aleandro's crawling eyes were drawn to her bare upper body.His lustful gaze darted around Yuriel's innocent body. He focused his attention on the plump breasts with pink peaks.Yuriel was embarrassed to be staring at Aleandro so intently. She wished to cover her body once more. However, Aleandro he
"Yeah, of course! Where else can I get the money for the orphanage, if not with it?""Oh, I see." Aleandro lowered his head, looking into her green eyes. His body cornered Yuriel against the sink. He stretched out his hand, playing with the strands of her hair that were still dripping with water."Yuriel Scott, are you serious?""Of course." Yuriel restrained Aleandro's broad chest, prevent him from putting her in a corner. Her back hurt against the sink."The contract is only for a year, right? After the contract period ends, our relationship will—" Yuriel hesitated to continue."Our relationship is over,“ she said at last. Somehow, she felt uncomfortable inside.Aleandro chuckled. His eyes deepened, staring at her with a strange look. His hand pinched Yuriel's chin and pulled her closer.Yuriel's heart skipped a beat, but she didn't push it.Lowering his face, Aleandro whispered against her lips in a low voice. "Yuriel Scott, before that time comes, you are mine... you and your body
Aleandro wiped away his tears and rushed out of the room to the next room.The room smelled like a nursery, with milk and powder wafting through it. Where the crying had come from was a crib in the middle of the room.Aleandro peered into the crib and saw a small baby dressed in girl's clothing crying aloud. Like Aleandro, she had thin black hair. His expression softened. He was worried because he had forgotten his child while attending Yuriel's funeral and was drowning in grief.Aleandro reached into the crib and carefully held the baby. The baby's crying still didn't stop. He was worried and panicked because he didn't know how to calm a crying baby."My dear, stop crying, okay?" Aleandro's heart was sour. His daughter's cry was reminiscent of Yuriel's cry a moment ago.The baby had hiccups, her tiny eyelids slowly opened to reveal her mother's green, teary eyeballs.Aleandro's heart melted when he saw his daughter's green eyes, which were identical to Yuriel's. He held the baby in h
Aleandro knelt and placed a white rose bouquet on the grave. He knelt beside the mound of dirt, oblivious to the fact that his body was drenched in rainwater.“Yuriel...” Aleandro gently stroked Yuriel's name on the tombstone, as if he were touching the skin of the woman in his memories. He seemed to be able to see a smiling face in front of her. In a hoarse voice, he said. "It’s all my fault. You are free to hate me and leave me. But I can't...you can’t leave me like this and then never return…"Aleandro had a sad expression on his face. Looking at the grave, tears welled up in his dark eyes. His heart couldn't accept Yuriel's departure."I'm sorry I locked you up and made you suffer."Aleandro could still see the look of rage, disappointment, and hurt in Yuriel's green eyes when he locked her in the villa and tortured her. Under his torture, the smile that had always graced her beautiful face with arrogance was gradually replaced with hatred, pain, and terror. Her eyes gradually los
Sherly grimaced, holding her head. She was dizzy and a warm liquid ran down her temple. Her eyes welled up with tears as she saw the blood on her head and looked up at the cold-hearted man with pitiful eyes.Aleandro snorted and walked out of the room casually.“Aleandro!” Sherly sobbed as she called out to him. Why was he so cruel to her? She only loved him, but he was cold to her.The bedroom door was wide open, and several maids who passed by whispered to Sherly.Sherly looked very sad. She was still dressed in her wedding dress and sitting on the floor, her head dripping blood and staining her wedding dress.Their wedding night turned out to be a nightmare. Aleandro left Sherly in her bedroom, proving that her position in Aleandro's heart was nothing, despite the fact that she was his wife.“Poor Miss Sherly, she was abandoned on the wedding night.”"Our master only has feelings for madam, but Miss Sherly insists on marrying our master. It's no surprise he left her in her room."H
Yuriel stared blankly out the bedroom window at the vast expanse of sea. The sun was setting and twilight rays were floating on the sea's surface. Seagulls soared through the sky. She didn't know how much time had passed because she hadn't counted since her confinement days.Yuriel shifted her gaze to the seafloor. The room was on the edge of a cliff. This kept her from breaking the glass and escaping. What if she shattered the glass and jumped? It made no difference whether she drowned or hit a rock to get away from this place or that devil-like man. She was ready to die.While deep in Yuriel’s thoughts, the bedroom door opened and a maid cautiously entered the room with a tray in hand. She looked at the woman sitting under the large french window pane.The woman stared blankly at the sea stretching outside like a caged bird longing to fly freely."Madam, it's time for lunch," the maid said, placing a tray of food in front of her. But the woman didn't move or even look at her.The ma
“Aleandro, I'm not going to let you insult my daughter. My daughter was obviously still a virgin at the time. Because she only likes you, she can't possibly sleep with another man!" Celine screamed in defense of her daughter, pushing aside her fear."Come on, mom. In either case, it was an accident. Aleandro was not to blame." Sherly pretended to be sad while holding Celina's arm so she wouldn't attack Aleandro. She gave Aleandro a sad and pleading look. "If you don't want this child, that's fine. But I beg you, please give my child a surname. So others cannot offend him."Aleandro was growing impatient and didn't want to waste time arguing with them."Then you have two options: abort it or raise it yourself. One thing is for sure, I will not marry you or give your child my family name. I only take into account the child that was born inside Yuriel."You can't do that, Aleandro. Because Sherly's child is the Gilren family's grandson, you are not the only one who can decide the fate of
18:00, GN Group.Aleandro massaged his throbbing temples as he considered the slightly bleak financial reports of late and Mayor Rollies' intensifying media attacks.There was a soft knock on the office door."Come in," Aleandro said, his gaze fixed on the document in his hand.Viktor's figure entered with heavy steps as the door opened. He looked doubtful at his boss, who was checking the financial documents in his hands while massaging his head."What is it?" Aleandro asked coldly as he noticed Viktor standing by his desk without saying anything.“There is news regarding Thalia Gibson, sir,” Viktor said as he grimaced at the boss."What news? Have you fixed it?” Aleandro asked indifferently and went back to checking the documents in his hand.“Thalia Gibson ran away after her family's company went bankrupt. I've been looking for her and found her in a suburban hotel. But…she was already dead before we could find her. The hotel representative said she committed suicide by drowning he
Thalia walked up and down the hotel, carrying her suitcase, waiting for Sherly's men to pick her up.Soon after, the hotel room doorbell rang.Thalia flinched and moved her gaze to the door. She approached the door with trepidation. She was afraid it was Aleandro's messenger. She saw a man in a black jacket standing alone outside her hotel room door through a small hole in the door.The man's face was only visible because his large jacket hoodie covered it.Thalia gulped nervously. She didn't immediately open the door and asked behind it, "Who’s there?""Miss Sherly asked me to pick you up," the man said, his voice hoarse and uninterested.Thalia rubbed her face, exhaling a sigh of relief. Unknowingly, she broke out in a cold sweat. She opened her bedroom door with relief and asked enthusiastically, "You've come, can we go now?"The longer Thalia stayed, the more terrified she became when she thought about when Aleandro Gilren would come to get her.The man smirked as the corners of h
Yuriel blinked slowly as she opened her eyes. With a dazed expression, she looked around. The room's monotonous white tone and the strong odor of medicine stabbed her deeply, causing her consciousness to fully recover. She flinched and reached out a terrified hand to feel her stomach as she remembered what had happened to her before losing consciousness. Her stomach ached and felt empty. Her heart sank as she felt her stomach flatten. Tears streamed down her cheeks.The baby had vanished."This can't be..." Yuriel was in a trance, unable to accept that her baby had died. She forcibly withdrew the IV needle in her hand, oblivious to the state of her body, which had just undergone surgery.“I have to confirm myself…” Yuriel muttered with a pale face in a hurry to get off her bed. Her stomach was immediately attacked by pain. She trembled and clutched her stomach. Her pale face was drenched in cold sweat. Her knees felt so weak that she was about to collapse on the cold floor. She straig
“You really are two-faced! You were trying so hard a week ago to fawn over and flatter me. Now you changed your face so fast and showed your real attitude. Your life is truly amazing living by fawning over other people. You’re disgusting," Yuriel mocked cruelly.Yuriel's blatant insult made Grace's face flush with rage. True, some of them engage in sycophancy for personal profit. Everyone knew it, but no one said anything about it.Grace's pride refused to accept Yuriel's words as an indirect slap in the face. Also, just hearing her last sentence was insulting and disgusting to her.Commoners remained commoners. They were very uneducated and barbaric. She was not going to lower herself to his level.Grace lifted her chin, smugly looking at Yuriel."I'm not going to debate you. But I have some advice for you: you should leave Aleandro Gilren. You and Sherly have both brought shame to the Gilren family. You'll never be accepted into the Gilren household.""You spoke as if you were a mem
