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.
She merely chuckled, not saying anything more. At that moment, Molly rushed over with a delighted expression on her face. She handed the ultrasound results to Rylee. “It was only a short while back that I heard you were engaged, Ms. Moore, yet you’re already with child! Congratulations!” She’s with child? Rylee took the results,…
It was already afternoon when Anthony arrived to visit me. Joseph came with him as well. After finding out what exactly happened, his brows knitted and he asked the bodyguard, “Why was there a snake in the villa?” The bodyguard’s expression was solemn as he answered, “We do a sweep of the yard every day…
His low voice drifted into my ears, “I’m going to the study to do some work.” I kept my eyes shut, not saying anything in reply as I pretended not to hear anything. I expected him to say something more, but all he did was get up and leave the room. The door clicked shut…
When I got into the car, Anthony didn’t speak but leaned over and tried to help me fasten my seatbelt. I brushed him off and fastened it on my own. After that, I looked out the window in a daze. He paused, not speaking, and started the car. The journey home took no longer than…
When I entered his car, all he did was glance at me and curtly asked me to fasten my seatbelt. I nodded. Seeing that he’d started the car, I asked him to take me back to Southcott Residential Area. The car ride was completely silent. The quietness had an intimidating air. To add to my…
After she left, I lingered outside and looked at the green belt at the side of the road in a daze. Knowing that feelings and affection came in many different forms, I wondered what Benjamin and Sally had. Soon, I received a call from Macy. “How did you find K City? Do you think you’d…
“Oh, haven’t you heard? That’s the ex-wife of Benjamin White. The one standing next to the lady in white is a scion of the Featherstones, a prominent family here in J City. I think her name is Sally or something like that. I heard that she was his mistress for a good number of years…
“Have you eaten yet, Aunt Sally?” I asked. Glancing over at Molly, I asked her to prepare something for Sally as well. “It’s alright. I’ve eaten at home,” replied Sally, who waved the request aside. She then tugged at my arm gently and asked me to get dressed. “Let’s go on an outing! I’m assuming…
For the sake of maintaining decorum, I got up and greeted him with a smile. He furrowed his brows again, still clutching the book he was reading earlier. His gaze fell onto my swollen belly before asking, “A Featherstone child?” I was a little taken aback by how abruptly he had asked about the child…
This was my first time in K City. Being the country’s capital, it came with rich historical background. Not only did it pay homage to its rich past, but it also served to usher in its even brighter future. However, such a large city meant that it came with its own set of problems, namely…
