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.
Garrett felt as if a sharp pain seared through his heart. However, when he thought of the current relationship between Loredana and Cormac, he still chose to reluctantly take out some of them. When Maxina married him at that time, the dowry brought by her consisted of the artefacts and cash in which cash was…
“I…” Cormac had already seen the name displayed on the screen and his eyebrows permeated with evil. The doctor by the name of Sampson? Loredana was startled for two seconds. She subconsciously reached out to feel his forehead with her hand but Cormac buckled her waist and made a flip. She was pressed by him…
He was still slumbering at the moment. She thought of something but was then relieved. If he was awake, how embarrassing would it be? She lifted the blanket and wanted to leave here before Cormac waked up. She got off the ground with her bare feet and when she turned to cover him with the…
Loredana, on the other hand, trembled. Two months ago? She calmed herself down and asked as if nothing had happened, “You said Cormac did not like Helen before but after returning from a business trip two months ago, he suddenly gave her the status as his girlfriend?” Coral nodded, “Yeah, the young master is not…
Sampson could not believe it. That was a heartless man, how would he suddenly give her money? “Lola…” “Sampson, I have to go to work.” Loredana stood up and put the money into Sampson’s arms, “This is what I owe you, so I should pay it back.” After saying that, she hurriedly walked out. Sampson…
“Because of what?” Helen was not as calm as before. “I just heard a few gossips, so Ms. White doesn’t need to really care about it.” Loredana purposely said some and stopped saying the rest to ensure that Helen did not know how much did she know. She deliberately left Helen in suspense. “Cormac and…
Comparing to the Herbert family, the Mendelsohn family could be regarded as an up-rising star. But it had many generations of talents. When it came to the generation where Cormac was in, it became a leading company in B City. And even DF Corporation, a time-honored brand that had lasted for a hundred years, was…
“I think I know who the father of the child in my belly is,” she said in a light tone as if she was soliloquizing, but as if she was speaking to Sampson too. Sampson’s face that was initially grinning changed. He said seriously, “Who?” “I’m not sure. There are still a lot of things…
Women are emotional creatures. She was even more sensitive during her pregnancy. “He helped me a lot. I didn’t know that this was the event that he wanted me to accompany him to. I definitely didn’t know that you would be present, I didn’t do it on purpose.” He frowned with a profound expression. No…
Loredana felt weird; what’s there to be afraid of? There was not a single drawback to publicizing their relationships, only benefits to her. “Our short marriage is just a trade. If your co-workers knew about it, it’s going to bring a lot of problems for you.” She lowered her eyes, said faintly. With a plan,…
