Anthony and Sienna entered into marriage to fulfill Anthony’s grandfather’s wish, despite Anthony being in love with Rylee. Sienna felt like an outsider in Anthony’s life. While the old man was alive, Anthony maintained a facade of politeness towards Sienna, but after his passing, Sienna’s troubles began.
Realizing that her marriage to Anthony paled in comparison to Rylee’s significance in his life, Sienna decided to seek a divorce, only to discover she was pregnant.
Anthony’s treatment towards her grew even more callous, eventually forcing Sienna out of their home to care for Rylee. Enduring this mistreatment silently, Sienna bore her suffering alone.
With time, Sienna uncovered that Rylee was not as innocent as she had believed, leading her to suspect that the misfortunes she endured were part of a deliberate scheme.
“About?” I gave her a puzzled look. Clad in a black dress suit, she looked exceptionally elegant. She pressed her lips for a bit and said, “You’ll know.” I nodded, put aside the document, and left the office with her. We arrived at one of the cafés in the city center, and I ordered a…
I mumbled, “A few glasses, I think.” Frankly speaking, I was not good at seducing men, and foreplay always wore me out. I just wanted to hit the bullseye. His breathing grew heavier as he pulled me closer to him. “So are you planning to give up?” I shook my head and changed my position.…
I pressed my lips and asked, “What do you want for your birthday?” “Anything!” “Like a shirt? A necktie? Or a belt?” I ran out of ideas. He looked at me and said in a serious tone, “No. I want you for my birthday.” I scoffed, “Over my dead body.” Hearing that, he was at…
I pressed my lips and sulked. “It’s inappropriate for me to answer the call.” My response clearly showed him that I refused to accept his family. This was no doubt an insult to him, and I immediately regretted it. “Inappropriate?” Before I could react, he reached out his hand and grabbed my chin. “Inappropriate in…
How childish! I rolled my eyes at him and picked up the call. “Hey John, what’s up?” “Anthony seems to be interested in the OrbitTech project as well. We’ve been fighting in secret for so long now. If I give up this project, it’ll very likely fall into his hands. What you need to do…
After pouring the milk into the toilet bowl, I came out and put the glass back down with a dark look on my face. “Please take the glass with you when you leave. Thanks!” “Sienna!” he growled. “Do you think this is funny?” Flummoxed, I cocked a brow at him. “What’s funny?” Faced with my…
“Anth, I…” Rylee wanted to say something but was cut off by Anthony. “Send my regards to your mother,” he said in a voice that had dropped a few octaves lower. The hidden warning in his words was clear. Rylee instantly tensed up, an aggrieved look taking residence on her face. Anthony wanted to tug…
The temperature around us seemed to plummet drastically. An inconspicuous smile appeared on Anthony’s handsome face, and his gaze on me was like a knife stabbing into my chest. “Very well. I won’t disappoint you then!” He pushed me onto the bed without waiting for me to react. Then, he jerked off his necktie and…
Back in my bedroom, my chest tightened uncomfortably. Even after a whole night of tossing and turning, I still couldn’t fall asleep. During the past two months, I never once thought about how I was going to spend the rest of my days. Besides solving the matters between Anthony and me, there was also Marcus.…
I nodded, making a few guesses of my own. Indeed, John was brought back to K City by the Stanhopes a few years ago. I didn’t ask him anything about what happened after that, so I didn’t know the details. We were still kids back when he came to R Province, and Grandma never told…
