Chapter 1

At the Fiesta Hotel. "Yes, it's Room 503. He's gonna meet you there." "Got it." Hanging up the phone, Marilyn swept the room card and went in. She was sent here by her sister Sandra to deliver some urgent papers to Mr. Hamilton, a critical partner of her family business. Just as Marilyn was about to turn on the light, a sharp knock came from the corridor. She opened the door without hesitation. "Good after..." Marilyn barely finished her greetings when she got roughly pushed back abruptly. "I need your help," the man said bluntly between ragged breathing. "S-Sure... But are...y-you Mr. H-Ham...?" Marilyn asked in a shaking voice out of fear. She wasn't prepared for something like this. "Just follow my instructions. I won't hurt you." Ignoring her question, the man approached closer until Marilyn's back was squashed up against the wall. In the dark room, Marilyn couldn't see the face of the man. She could only hear her heart thumping. Intimidated by the aggressive

Marilyn was startled. Then she ran out of the Chambers family's villa. Marilyn ran all the way nonstop. It was still early. There were few pedestrians on the road. The morning fog was thick. Tears blurred her eyes, and her body trembled involuntarily. The beautiful foster mother she had always respected set her up! The sister whom she had always loved and protected, treated her as a tool to make money! Marilyn felt that her world was collapsing, and she was in such despair that she couldn't feel anything else but pain. Immersed in tremendous grief, she ran into the road when a dark red sports car was speeding over. In a flash, a long braking horn sounded. The next minute, Marilyn realized she was on the road, her eyes blurred by tears contracted violently. With the sound of a bang, Marilyn's body flew up and hit back onto the ground in a short distance. She lay motionless on the ground, her face ghastly pale. The red blood sprang from the back of her head. As her

Marilyn never meant to stay, for she had stuff to do. Yet the nurse asked her to keep an eye on the man's condition. So she had no choice but to stick around for now. "When his family shows up, I'll be good to go," she thought.While she was waiting, sleepiness kicked in. Then she dozed off by the bedside.Malcolm, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes. After glancing around the room, he found himself in a hospital.Suddenly, someone's phone rang, repeating the same line from a song over and over.Annoyed by the noise, Malcolm furrowed his brows.Marilyn, hearing the familiar ringtone, reached into her backpack on her knees and answered the call without looking up."Hi, Arturo." Since she just woke up, her voice was a bit raspy, sounding muffled."Mommy, this is Laverne," the little girl replied in a displeased voice."Sorry, babe, I didn't check the caller ID. What's up?" Marilyn shook her head to drive the drowsiness away.Turned out Laverne was just calling to check if Ma

Yet his clenched jaw gave away his emotional turmoil.The wound on his forehead throbbed faintly, but it was nothing compared to the ache in his heart.Before Julian started the car, he glanced at Malcolm through the rearview mirror.Then he couldn't help feeling puzzled.

She joined the branch three years ago and soon got promoted to design director with her unique designs. She's quite excellent. I'm sure she'll be a great help after taking over Hannah's job."Malcolm nodded, his handsome face devoid of emotion.The Lowe Group operated in various industries, but he had always been obsessed with design.The topic brought a warm memory back to his mind."Lynn, what do you wanna do when you grow up?" asked young Malcolm."Malcolm, what do you think of my princess dress?"

"Mr. Bowman, don't go too far. I'll be the wife of the president of the Lowe Group." Velma glared at Sergio angrily. She wasn't gentle anymore and looked at Mr. Bowman arrogantly.The former secretary never dared to block her way. But ever since Sergio became the secretary, he had repeatedly stopped her from seeing Malcolm.Marilyn was surprised. She thought, "She's Malcolm's fiancée?"Sergio narrowed his sharp eyes and said clearly, "Miss Remington, I said that you can also talk to me like this when you become the wife of the wife of the president of the Lowe Group. It's almost time for the meeting. Please come after the meeting if you want to see Mr. Lowe.""Sergio, let's wait and see.

However, it was because of Malcolm that Carolyn disappeared. Nothing could relieve his terrible sense of blame.Sergio walked over to Malcolm and said slowly, "Malcolm, Miss Remington called again and asked when you would be there. She said that the two families were going to discuss your marriage."Malcolm took a glance at Sergio with deep-set eyes and said coldly, "An adopted daughter wants to marry me in place of Lynn. Don't you think the Remington family is ridiculous?"Sergio answered, "Since you don't want to go there, I'll call to refuse her later.""Well." Malcolm became sullen.
