Chapter 41

As she entered the living room, Summer saw Gordon attentively reading the newspaper as he sat on the leather recliner sofa. With his serious-looking appearance, the military service uniform he was dressed in has made Gordon look especially stern and solemn. She greeted him as she bit her lower lip, “Hello, grandfather.” Without even batting an eye at her, he continued to flip through the newspaper as if he had not heard her at all. Summer was not too bothered by his response as she had already seen it coming.With her defined features, Yvette gave out a sophisticated vibe as she was brewing her afternoon coffee. Summer greeted her as well, “Hello, mom.”“Oh. You’re back.” Unlike Gordon, Yvette responded and continued to say, “The maids had already tidied up your room. She’ll guide you there in a moment.”A soft but high-pitched voice rang through, “So this is big brother’s wife. Right, auntie?”A slender figure dressed lavishly in black appeared before Summer. Taking Summ

Chapter 42

When Lily saw them hugging so intimately against each other, a look of displeasure plastered on her face as she glared at Summer. Stomping towards them in her three inched heels, she squeezed in between them and forced Summer aside. “Mark, I peeled and prepared these fruits for you. Auntie said you came back, so I brought this up to you.” “When did you arrive in Santabaca?”Mark replied after eyeing Summer inquisitively, who was beside him.Lily beamed at him happily as she asked him, “I just arrived today. If you have time tomorrow, could you bring me around Santabaca?”“I can’t. I’ll be busy.” As he uttered his reply, he sat on the couch cross-legged and drank some water. Seemingly annoyed, faint furrows appeared in Mark’s brows.‘It’s like I’m not even here.’Summer grunted to herself as she just stood aside, leaning against the wall. ‘Why am I here anyway? This is so annoying,’ she thought.“You’re such a bully! I hardly ever visit Santabaca, yet you wouldn’t even spe

Chapter 43

Lily spoke up again, "Do you not want to accompany me around Santabaca?""No, of course, I want to. It would be an honor to accompany my adorable sister-in-law," Summer said in a friendly tone; however, her smile did not meet her eyes. Lily scoffed, 'Sister-in-law? How ridiculous of her to call me that!'Chuckling mirthlessly to herself, Lily left the room after. Summer shifted her gaze back to Mark, who was sitting on the couch, and mocked him, "What a kind and loving brother you were." His lips twitched upwards as he looked at her momentarily before saying, "The way you said that sounded so lovely, Mrs. Valentine. Do compliment me again." Summer was rendered speechless. The next day. She was the only one left in the room when she awoke.Just as she was heading to get some breakfast after washing her face, Lily stomped towards her, demanding her accompany to go around town. With Gordon and Yvette in the room, Summer could not turn Lily down, so she agreed defeatedly a

Chapter 44

Watching Lily leave looking as proud as a peacock, Summer giggled as she thought it was funny.‘She sure is childish,’ Summer thought to herself.About half an hour later, Nancy arrived looking glum and tired with heavy eyebags. She looked as if she did not sleep for a day or two. Feeling worried, Summer furrowed her brows as she asked, “What happened? Why do you look so tired?” As Nancy’s eyes started to water, she sat next to Summer. Holding back her tears, she complained to her best friend, “Howard got arrested for that no-good woman!”“Didn’t you guys talk it out after the last incident?” “Of course, we did! I even asked my friends to introduce him to other women, but nothing worked. As though he was brainwashed by that woman, he just wouldn’t snap out of it!”Nancy felt furious and exhausted of Howard, but she could not change the fact that Howard is a little brother. She had to help him somehow. “Summer, aren’t you close with Mr. Valentine? Please help me talk to him.

“Hello, Ms. Atkinson,” greeted Mark as he tucked his phone away. Rushing to stand, “Hello there, Mr. Valentine,” Nancy responded with her cheeks slightly flushed. “Where’s Summer?” Nancy was stunned to hear him calling Summer by her first name, ‘Since when were they on a first name basis?’ “She went to get coffee,” Nancy replied. What she had heard made her extremely curious, so gathering up the courage, she asked him, “Is it fine for me to say that you seem close with Summer?” “Yes. We are indeed very familiar with one another,” with his eyebrows raised, his lips moved again as he continued, “In fact, we’re married.” Nancy’s expression turned tense as her face darkened. Feeling as if there were thousands of needles pricking on her heart, making her bleed uncontrollably, she felt out of breath.As she thought of Summer’s reply saying she wasn’t close with Mr. Valentine, she felt furious. She clenched her hands tightly to the point that the print of her nails remained on he

Chapter 46

Watching Charlie’s expression, Grace scoffed, “I’ll gouge your eyes out if you don’t stop looking at me that way!” Right after, Mark stepped in, followed by Summer who walked behind him.“The stars of the day have finally arrived! We truly shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. Who could have ever thought innocent-looking Summer was so wild behind our backs!” Referring to the night of the incident before, Grace mocked Summer as she faced her. Since she did not dare to mock Mr. Valentine, she could only tease and make fun of Summer. “You better zip it, Grace! You’ve said enough!” scolded Summer lightly as she felt embarrassed. “I don’t get what you meant by that. All I know is I wasn’t invited to a wedding I was supposed to attend, so you have to compensate me somehow. As your punishment for not letting us know about the marriage, how about you kiss Mr. Valentine in front of us for 2 minutes? Starting now!” Summer felt her head throb and told her off, “Stop fooling around!” “

Meanwhile, feeling furious from what she witnessed, Nancy’s chest heaved. The ‘punishment’, however, did not persist as the oh so powerful, Mr. Valentine had spoken up in Summer’s defense. “Tsk tsk, you sure are protective of her!” Grace sighed as she could not stand the gentleness of his tone. Complaining, Billy huffed, “I was rendered exhausted to the brink of death during your first night! Don’t you think this punishment is too light, Mr. Valentine?”Mark smirked as he replied in a graceful yet lazy tone, “What do you propose then?” As he heard the unusual tone, Billy gave a light cough before suggesting, “How about a few rounds of billiards?”Facing Billy, Charlie scoffed lightly and booed at his suggestion.“Why don’t you give it a go? You don’t know what I’ve been through,” Billy said defiantly. As he did not want to end up like Billy, Charlie gave a simple excuse, “Before I get married and had my first night, I’ll pass for now.”Billy rolled his eyes in playful ann

Chapter 48

Mark's gaze landed on her with his eyes narrowed. His eyes looked deep and bottomless. He shifted his brows slightly but said nothing. His expression gave away nothing at all. Nancy could feel his sharp gaze on her. She felt even more conscious after saying what she did. She was as taut as a bowstring on the verge of snapping. Neither of them spoke, and it was silent for a moment which made Nancy's heart feel even tenser. She heard a voice in her head say, 'This is your only chance of getting close to Mr. Valentine. If it slips away, you won't get another chance again!' As the picture of her fantasy was getting clearer, she felt more determined as she knew what she had to do. She knew there was no way for her to turn back now, and she had to own up to what she had said and decided. She did not regret it one bit; on the contrary, she felt proud. 'What is there to lose if I could be with this man?' she thought. After taking a deep breath, she gritted her teeth as she he

Chapter 49

‘Can this woman hear herself? I can’t believe her,’ Summer thought begrudgingly. Meanwhile, Nancy spotted something which made her look in a daze. Her eyes glinted as she was staring at Summer. Nobody could tell what was in Nancy’s head at that moment. As for the women’s conversation, it seemed to get more vulgar as compared to the men’s conversation. Especially with the presence of Grace, their conversation would only revolve around such topics. Only Nancy has kept silent from the beginning towards the end. Both her expressions and eyes looked glum and dull. Long after, it was getting late. After receiving a call, Grace picked up her red fur coat from the couch and left immediately.Mark and the gang had entered the room after finishing their game of billiards. Hanging his coat on his arm casually, Billy gracefully pulled Sherman close to him and bade goodbye before leaving. Charlie squinted his eyes and looked around as if he was looking for someone. Mark, who was stan

Chapter 50

As the window wound down, a familiar face came into view. Jazz was slightly taken aback to see his brother as he greeted, “Hi, Mark.”Jazz looked troubled when he saw Summer, and Mark just stared at him in silence.He did not want to greet Summer as her brother-in-law. With eyes carefully speculating him, Mark knew why Jazz was feeling troubled for, yet he purposefully asked, “Why don’t you greet your sister-in-law?”Jazz’s eyes darkened, and without letting them notice, he clenched the fists on his sides as he bit out, “Hello, Summer.” Summer still felt uneasy as she greeted him in return. Just as she wanted to speak up again, Mark’s deep voice could be heard as he said, “Explain to me what and why are you here.”“Since I felt too bored at home, I’m just fully utilising my break now and being more productive. By working here, I could also get a break from mom’s constant nagging.”Jazz shrugged his shoulders as he explained. With snow falling onto his hair, he looked nonchalan
