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.
Mrs. Eriksen nodded and went to pack some pastries. Surprised, I looked at Marcus and exclaimed, “So you like to eat pastries?” He raised his eyebrow. “It won’t hurt if I eat some occasionally.” He was not wrong. After Mrs. Eriksen finished packing the pastries, Marcus stood up and prepared to leave. Looking at the…
It wasn’t long before Dr. Linnard arrived. He managed to remove the fishbone from my throat in no time. “Fortunately, it was stuck in your pharynx. It’s going to be disastrous if such a large fishbone caused any damage to other parts of your throat.” I was relieved when the fishbone was finally removed, but…
That was when I saw Anthony’s tall figure standing in the shadows. His expression was perfectly hidden in the darkness, but I sensed his aloofness. I paused for a while before making my way toward him. “Has Sally sobered Benjamin up?” He retrieved his icy gaze from Marcus as he answered, “Yes. He’s feeling better…
Since I was pregnant and couldn’t consume alcohol, I raised my teacup and toasted Benjamin. “Benjamin, I wish you a happy birthday. May God bless you always!” My words brought a smile to his face. “Thank you for your blessing. May God bless everyone! Cheers!” Throughout the meal, except Marcus, who was apathetic as before,…
Raising my brow, I retorted, “Why shouldn’t I?” “What if the baby asks for his father when he grows up? How are you going to answer him?” He pretended to ask casually while turning the steering wheel to the right, keeping his eyes on the road. Being caught off guard by his question, I was…
Anthony grew annoyed at that. He snapped, “Then find it! How could you possibly wear something someone else’s wife bought for them? Does it even fit you?” “It fits perfectly actually!” Jared did not seem to be in a good mood. I could hear how his background was rather noisy, hinting that he was possibly…
Anthony’s voice grew even more frosty as he spat, “Just do as I say!” Then, he ended the call. For a moment, all I could do was stare at Anthony. I could not even come up with an adjective to describe him. At last, I walked over to sit down opposite him. Giving him a…
With that said, he tossed the bouquet of roses into the nearby garbage bin. Then, he looked at John with an innocent expression on his face. “Oops, my hand slipped. Sorry about that!” Honestly, how much more childish can Anthony get! “If you don’t like the man, you really should just reject him and be…
“Sienna!” he snapped in annoyance. “We can talk when we get back home.” My expression was serious as I nodded. “That’s true. Whatever we have to say can be said back at home while we’re lying on our bed comfortably. We have all the time in the world, after all. That’s why I’m telling you…
In the end, I put on a pair of flats and went back downstairs. Upon realizing I was about to leave the house, Molly cried out, “Mrs. Featherstone, are you going out? No, you can’t! Mr. Featherstone gave specific instructions not to let you leave the villa alone. Give me a moment and I’ll go…
