Chapter 4

Author: Two Dolls
"Selina, you don't want free money? What do you mean by that? I'm a stranger now?"

I replied, "Since we've already broken up, we shouldn't interact to avoid being misunderstood."

I thought of my somewhat jealous husband.

Levi glanced at Rosalie, looking as if he had it all figured out.

"The company is holding a banquet for Mr. Grey in three days. I'm planning to take you there to broaden your horizons, but you need to buy a decent dress to avoid disgracing me later..."

Before he could finish speaking, I politely declined. "That's really not necessary. Thank you."

Levi became a little annoyed at my second refusal.

His hand holding the cheque froze in mid-air and his teeth were chattering. "Selina, you've really grown bold now. You indeed have a bad temper. Since you don't want to go, forget it. I'll take Rosalie!"

Hearing that Levi was going to take her to the banquet, Rosalie's eyes lit up and she hurriedly said, "Levi, I will do my best not to let you down."

I refused to argue with them any longer. I turned around and strode away. Before leaving, I said, "I hope you will still be this confident three days from now."

Leaving the airport arrival hall in a hurry and breathing in the fresh air, the nausea surging in my stomach subsided greatly.

Three years ago, my family arranged for me to go abroad for a blind date. Pressured by my parents, I begged my boyfriend Levi, whom I had been dating for seven years, to get married, hoping to make it a done deal.

Levi agreed.

Unexpectedly, I not only met Levi at the entrance of the clerk's office, but also his first love, Rosalie. "Rosalie's child needs to be legitimate, so I have to marry her first. I will marry you once we get a divorce in a month. It's just for the child. Don't overthink it."

Watching Levi holding Rosalie's hand and walking into the clerk's office, I gave up completely.

That night, I took a plane to go abroad for the blind date. A month later, I married Axel. Then, I gave birth to our first child a year later. Lately, I got pregnant with our second child.

If I had not accompanied Axel back to pay respects to his ancestors, I would not have returned, not to mention meet Levi.

Three days later, I put on light makeup and came to the banquet alone in casual clothes.

As soon as he saw me, Levi's eyes lit up while he smirked slightly.

"You said you wouldn't come, but your actions say otherwise. However, you have to at least please me if you want me to take you back. You must dress appropriately to match my status on an occasion like today."

I ignored his sudden narcissism and tried to walk around him to my seat. I had taken only two steps when the angry Levi grabbed me. "Selina, I'm talking to you. Do you hear me? Our seats are here. Where are you going?"

I shook off his hand and said calmly. "This is your seat. My seat is over there."

Levi followed my gaze and turned pale when he saw the main seat.

Rosalie glanced maliciously at me, pointed at my bracelet and cursed, "Selina, how did you sneak in? You came here to cause trouble, right? How... How dare you wear this bracelet?!"

Her voice was so loud that it attracted everyone's attention instantly.

"Is this woman's bracelet the Eternal Sincerity that Mr. Grey spent a fortune on to win for his wife? Today is the first time that Mr. Grey will appear with his wife. Is she trying to embarrass Mrs. Grey?"

    "If you had controlled your desires, would you have had a child out of the blue? You're still making excuses for your mistakes even now. Aren't you despicable? You're like trash. Why do you think I'll take you back?" I asked.Before Levi could speak, he was subdued by the bodyguards who had rushed over. Axel's expression sank. "Levi, you really have a death wish."Axel's eyes were gloomy. After confirming that I was not injured, he ordered the bodyguards to drag Levi away."Axel, do you think she really loves you? You're just my substitute." After Levi finished saying this, Axel knocked him unconscious.He had heard about my relationship with Levi. After all these years of marriage, Axel still lacked a sense of security. He always felt that I did not love him that much. Watching Axel's departing figure, I just felt heartbroken.Levi kept sowing discord between me and Axel. I wished him dead.When I got home in the evening, I was lost in thought as I looked at the wedding photo on

    Reagan pushed Julia away."Selina, you finally woke up. Are you feeling okay? Don't worry. I've dealt with all those who bullied you. Axel's eyes were red, and I had only lain there for one night. Why did they act as if they had not seen me in decades?"I'm fine, Axel. Don't worry." Then, I looked at Reagan again and added softly. "Reagan, did Dad scold you?"Reagan paused. Feeling wronged, he pouted as he started tearing up. "No, Dad didn't scold me.""You're lying." I hated it when Reagan lied to me, but he insisted that Axel did not scold him. I knew what Axel was like. He must have scolded Reagan. I gently held Reagan in my arms to comfort him before glaring at Axel again.Feeling guilty, Axel stood in place, somewhat at a loss.Reagan apologized, "Mom, I will never let you get hurt again. It's all my fault this time. I'm sorry, Mom."My heart almost melted as I looked at my good-looking son. "Protecting you is my job. I don't blame you."Julia took Reagan outside, leaving

    After drinking some water, I finally caught my breath. "It's Reagan.""Got it, got it. He's your precious son. That little one is so vicious that he doesn't need your protection at all."I automatically ignored Julia's rants about Reagan and asked her again. "How come I don't see Axel and Reagan around?"Julia perked up immediately. "They're avenging you. I wanted to go too, but your husband and son are so terrifying. I stayed back to keep you company."I pretended to be dissatisfied and asked, "What? Are you upset that you have to keep me company?"Julia looked at me speechlessly. "I don't even know what to say to you, Selina. You were already unconscious when I arrived. I found out what had happened from the discussion going on around me. "Your adorable son paled when he saw you faint. Axel's gaze was downright murderous. Do you know that Reagan stuck a fork hard into Rosalie's hand after you were sent to the hospital? I never knew a child could be that strong."She added, "A

    Levi's shamelessness was eye-opening.Axel's blood was on my body, but Axel burst out laughing when he saw how worried I was for him.I glared at him somewhat angrily. "Why are you laughing?"Axel reached out with his other uninjured hand and rubbed the top of my head."Selina, you said that I'm the only one you will ever love."The corner of Reagan's mouth twitched. His father, who dominated the business world, was clingy like a bashful lady. It was hard to watch.The guests at the scene were shocked, but more envious."Selina made Mr. Grey this way.""Mr. Grey's persona as a doting husband was real."Seeing that I ignored him, Levi was a little furious and clenched his fists.Reagan did not indulge Levi. "Nanny? My mom is a princess at home. Who do you think you are? My mom only has two children, me and my sister. How dare your bastard be her child?! "I've heard about you. How can a scumbag like you who broke my mom's heart dare to compare yourself to my dad? You're not a

    The doctor that Axel found applied ointment to me."Hiss."The sound of me hissing made Reagan and Axel look as if they were about to kill someone. "You can't even do something as simple as applying ointment properly?"The doctor's hands shook with fear.I pretended to glare at Axel and Reagan."Selina.....""Mom..."The father and son immediately looked at me pleadingly.I sighed helplessly. "Alright, alright. The doctor is helping me. Don't do that."After I calmed them down, the doctor relaxed significantly. After the examination and cleaning were completed, he slowly said to Axel, "Mr. Grey, Mrs. Grey is alright. There's nothing wrong with the baby she's carrying either. However, the injury on Mrs. Grey's hand is quite serious. I'll find the best medicine and try my best to leave no scars."Axel remained quiet. Only I knew that this was a sign of his anger.Levi, the chief culprit, was a little nervous. After all, he never expected the girl who had always simped over h

  • A Glorious Comeback   Chapter 7

    It was not a big deal at first and I could have solved it myself. Perhaps due to pregnancy hormones, my voice was tinged with a plaintive tone. My pent-up grievances exploded. "They bullied me while you weren’t around."Those who had gone to the airport to pick me up earlier trembled so much that they needed to hold onto the table. The simp they had been mocking a few days ago turned out to be Mr. Grey's wife. They were sick with regret. I wore the bracelet on my hand and had emphasized many times that I was Axel's wife. Knowing that they had offended a big shot, these people wanted nothing more than to find a place to hide.Rosalie's best friend, Tessa Ginger, suddenly stepped forward. "Selina, where did you find these two actors? They're so good at acting. Do you want Rosalie to help them find an agency? After all, you're so poor that you can't even afford a set of clothes. I have a set here that I have worn. I can give it to you to keep you from being embarrassed if you do
