Yohan's words still echo in my mind, haunting me even now. I can’t focus on my work, and I keep zoning out whenever I remember the heated argument we had in his office. Do I deserve to be spoken to with such hurtful words? I’ve been a kind and obedient wife to him!"Ma'am Cosette, you have a meeting today with the department heads, and Sir Zion will also be there."I blinked and looked up upon hearing my secretary’s voice. I’m still in my office—I haven’t left since Yohan stormed out, leaving me there. I don’t want to see him because it will only hurt me more. I refuse to cry again; my eyes are already stinging from earlier."Wi-Will Yohan attend?" I asked Alice weakly.She nodded. I know she already mentioned that Yohan would be there, but I still want to be sure. If he’s attending, then I won’t go. I don’t want to see him right now, especially since I’ll have to face him again when I go home later—unless he doesn’t come home tonight, like last night. Tsk. I hope he really doesn’t co

I can now become an actress. I'm excellent at acting—making everything seem fine, making my relationship with Yohan appear perfect. We had a quarrel after I spent the night at Franklyn's condo unit. I had already expected it because Yohan hates it when his ego is bruised. He doesn't love me, yet at the same time, he doesn't want to see me with someone else. He's angry with me for staying at Franklyn's condo? What business is it of his?! He didn’t even bother to message me that he wouldn’t be coming home that night, leaving me worried sick about him.Today marks the grand opening of the new Warren Empire Hotel, an event attended by numerous guests from the business world. The new model representing Warren Hotel will also be introduced, someone who will serve as the face of Warren Hotels and Casinos. I have no idea who this model is because I didn’t attend the meeting—my resentment toward Yohan kept me away at the time.I’ve been avoiding Yohan for days, refusing to talk to him even whe

Now, I fully understand why Daddy refuses to let go of Yohan and insists on our marriage. Yohan is one of the wealthiest businessmen in the U.S., admired by many, especially as the sole heir to his family's vast empire. With his parents long gone, he controls their numerous businesses. He excels at negotiation and manipulation, having outmaneuvered countless business rivals. No one has managed to defeat him—most businessmen simply choose to partner with him rather than go against him.So now, I’ve decided to play the same game my husband is playing.If he uses me? I’ll use him too.He’s a valuable asset to our company, and I’ll follow my father’s instructions because he knows what’s best—and our business means everything to him. I might get hurt, but I won’t let Yohan see it. I won’t let him enjoy my pain.I’m sure he’d find it amusing if he did."A lovely evening, everyone!"The event has begun. Yohan and I are seated at the front table, side by side, as a married couple. I don’t wan

"Are you sure this is Zion Warren's wife? We can't afford to make the same damn mistake again.""Yes, Boss! I double-checked the photo you gave me before grabbing her by the swing. I was lucky to spot her outside the hotel—I saw her coming out through the fire exit!"I jolted awake at the sound of their voices. What happened? Why does my head hurt? I tried to open my eyes, but darkness surrounded me. Why can't I see anything?"Oh no, Boss! It looks like Zion Warren's wife is waking up!"‘Wait... how do they know my husband?’ My heart pounded in my chest. Where am I?I tried to move my legs, but they wouldn’t budge. It felt like they were tied down, restricting any movement. My mouth, too, was sealed shut, a thick layer of tape preventing any attempt at speaking or screaming."Big Boss is on his way. Damn it, if this woman isn't Warren's wife, we're screwed—again!""Relax, Boss! I’m telling you, that’s Zion Warren’s wife. Her name is Cosette."A chill ran down my spine as one of them s

"M-Mister, please let me go," I weakly pleaded when the man who had kidnapped me entered the room.He carried a glass of water, and I couldn't help but feel a desperate thirst. My body was weak, and it had been a long time since I had a sip of water. As he approached, he pressed the glass to my lips. I drank eagerly, finishing every drop to quench my parched throat. Tears welled up in my eyes. I never thought I would experience being kidnapped—I had only seen it happen in movies. But now, I was living through the nightmare myself."Be thankful we have some mercy on you. You've been crying since earlier!" the man scoffed. "Sorry, but all we can give you is water. We don’t have the budget for your food, so just endure it."I couldn't stop my tears from falling. With a trembling voice, I pleaded once more, "Mister, please, listen to me. I haven’t done anything wrong. I’m just caught up in this mess."The man avoided my gaze, taking a step back before turning away."Shut up! I won’t pity

"H-How did you get here? Why does it seem like you weren’t shot? How did you manage to free yourself so quickly? And how did you come here alone?" I bombarded him with questions as he helped me stand.Yohan shot me a sharp look, annoyance flickering in his eyes."Seriously, Cosette? You're asking me that now when we only have a few minutes to escape? Can’t I just answer all of that later—when we’re already out of here?" he said irritably.I clamped my mouth shut, afraid that pressing him further would only make him angrier. I wasn’t trying to be difficult—I just wanted answers. But as always, his stubbornness got in the way."Hey, listen..."I looked up when Yohan gently lifted my chin, his expression softening."I’m not mad at you, okay? I’ll answer all your questions, but not now. We need to get out of here before Parker catches us," he said seriously.I swallowed hard and nodded. Yohan gave me a faint smile, his hand brushing against my cheek.Our moment was abruptly cut short when

"Are you involved with the mafia?"Yohan froze, his hand pausing mid-motion as he applied ointment to my knee. We were in our room, and this was the first time I had a chance to talk to him. Earlier, there had been another man with us in the car on our way home. I couldn’t understand their conversation, so I decided to sleep. By the time I woke up, we were already home.Now, I sat on the bed, pressing a cold compress to the bruises on my face—bruises left by Uncle’s repeated slaps. My face was battered, and if anyone saw me like this, they might assume Yohan was responsible. I didn’t want rumors spreading, so I had already decided to take two weeks off work to rest and regain my strength."Why are you asking me that, Cosette?" Yohan smirked, resuming his task. "I’m not part of any mafia group."Silence settled between us again. I watched him carefully. His expression was serious as he tended to my wounds, and I had the distinct feeling that he wanted to tell me something but couldn’t

Early in the morning, I was surprised. For my safety, I agreed with Yohan that I should have bodyguards. For now, I'll take a break, stay home, avoid going out, and refrain from working for a while."Is your stomach hurting? Is that why you left the event so suddenly, Setta?"I almost spit out the juice I was drinking when my sister, Geneva, asked that. She had visited me in my office at Warren Empire, saying she had good news to share. I'm happy for my sister because Dad finally agreed to let her continue her studies in fashion design. Geneva went through a lot of struggles before Dad finally gave in and allowed her to pursue her dream.I'm genuinely happy for her, especially since I can see that she truly loves her husband.Geneva was extremely worried about me, wondering why I had suddenly disappeared from our event at the new Warren Empire hotel. I still remember that night when I saw Geneva and Sylvie in the hall. I told them I was going to the restroom, but I never returned beca

"How are you and Zion, Cosette?"I paused mid-bite when Dad asked me that. I was visiting my parents since it had been a while since I last came over, and I missed both Mommy and Daddy. They still didn't know what had happened to me, and I had no intention of telling them—I didn’t want to add to their worries.I forced a faint smile and answered, "We're good, Dad. On Monday, we're going to Spain. His cousin is getting married, and he wants me to go with him."Dad nodded and continued eating. I glanced at Mom, who was already looking at me. We exchanged smiles.After dinner, Dad asked me to follow him to his office. He looked deep in thought, his usual serious expression even more intense than usual. Once inside, he turned to face me with an unreadable look."Zion has already signed the partnership contract between Allen Company and Warren Empire. I'm confident that by next month, we'll be leading in the rankings, and more investors will follow," Dad said, his tone businesslike.I wasn

"Señorito! ¡Nos alegramos de que esté aquí! [Sir, we are glad that you are finally here!]"I was pleasantly confused by the words of a man who approached Yohan and me as we disembarked from our private jet. I wasn’t sure how long our journey to Spain had taken, but I knew it was a quick flight, and we had arrived late at night. Several men approached us, accompanied by bodyguards stationed around the area. Our private jet had landed in an open field, not at an airport."Es bueno verte aquí, Vasco. [It’s good to see you here, Vasco,]" Yohan said to the man in front of us, smiling.Unable to contain my curiosity, I tugged at Yohan’s shirt, causing him to look at me with a raised eyebrow, as if asking what I needed."What are you guys talking about? I can’t understand anything, Yohan. Why don’t you speak English so I can join the conversation?" I asked him.He chuckled. "We were just greeting each other, Cosette," Yohan replied.Yohan wrapped an arm around me and turned back to the man h
