When Loredana was eight years old, her father left the family for his mistress, leaving them to fend for themselves abroad. Loredana and her mother, Maxina, worked multiple jobs to make ends meet. Tragedy struck when an accident claimed her little brother’s life and left her mother severely injured. Desperate to cover the hospital bills, Loredana resorted to sacrificing herself, losing her innocence in the process.
Loredana’s father returned with what he deemed “good news”: a proposal to marry Loredana into the wealthy Mendelsohn family. Despite knowing it was a ploy—given the groom’s paralysis and the inevitable unhappiness that awaited—both Loredana and Maxina understood the ulterior motives behind the offer. Her father sought personal gain at the expense of his daughter’s well-being.
Despite the circumstances, Loredana agreed to the marriage, having struck a silent agreement with her father solely for her mother’s sake.
Samuel pushed away Coral. Sliding down from the sofa and picked up with the result. With a “hiss” it was torn apart by him. Seemingly it was not enough, he kept tearing it until the result became fragments. “This is just a mistake. How could I be his son?” Samuel pointed at Cormac. “My mother…
“May I take you to find her?” His voice couldn’t help trembling. He also sounded quite careful. “No, thanks,” Samuel still refused. “I’ll call Mommy and ask her to pick us up.” As he said, Samuel switched on his wear phone and dialed Loredana’s number. However, the reply he got was: “I’m sorry. The subscriber…
However, Loredana said that man was a local that night. It had been a long time and nobody had mentioned it. Nobody had connected Cormac with the kids. Maxina didn’t explain it to Coral. After all, it was her daughter’s privacy. She couldn’t expose it. If Coral misunderstood, it was alright. Coral could tell that…
What the heck? Samuel gaped. Didn’t Mommy get the official divorce certificate yet? He wondered how they got divorced back then. “How could you adults do such imprecise things?” Samuel was quite annoyed. If they still have the marriage certificates, they were still a legal couple. How could he find a better man for his…
Sure enough, everything had approved his guess. In the past, he thought the reason why Maria was against Loredana was that Loredana had married him. It wasn’t until now did he realized that Maria hated Loredana because of more reasons rather than only their marriage. The incident that happened six years ago was the most…
In Herbert family’s villa… At this time, the whole Herbert family had almost gone to sleep. The lights were dim in the huge yard. It was pretty quiet around it. Occasionally there would be a rustle of leaves blown in the wind. Boyce walked up to pull Cormac, afraid he would be too impulsive. “Although…
“Why do you care what I laugh at?” She suppressed her laughter. In Boyce’s eyes she suddenly looked like a lunatic. “Where is Loredana?” A gloomy voice came from the darkness. “How would I know where she is?” Maria smiled, “Why? You can’t find her? Did she and that man elope…” She hadn’t even finished…
Boyce didn’t dare to move, if he killed her impulsively then this matter would become troublesome. “Um…” “Get out!” “I want to see my lawyer!” Maria panicked. She wanted to escape but her hands were handcuffed to the chair and she was unable to move. “You have no evidence that I kidnapped Loredana. If you…
He swiped down a bit. [You accepted my money, sold your body and unexpectedly got pregnant. You don’t know who is the father, right?] [Who are you? What do you want and why do you know about this?] [The person then.] [Whenever you want to meet me you can contact me. I heard that your…
Maxina sighed in relief. This was of course good. She just didn’t know how to respond to his bluntness. “I have to go to Country A for a business trip, she will be going with me. We may not come back for a couple of days and we will have to trouble you with Samuel…
