A team of lawyers pulled over at Eden Grace Restaurant. After the drama that happened earlier that day between Adele and Julia, the restaurant faced backlash and was accused of aiding a bully and bending over backwards for influential people over justice.

However, the establishment was quick to put up a statement, claiming that the manager didn't understand the full context of the situation and had acted on partial information. They assured the public they were an inclusive space for all customers, no matter their social standing. Then, they rendered an apology to Adele. The post ended with a photo of their staff lined up in front of the building, smiling nervously, as if hoping their collective goodwill could erase the trending hashtags calling for a boycott.

The group marched into the restaurant, faces stoic and unfriendly, save for the tall, silver-haired attorney in an immaculate three-piece suit, exuding the calm menace of someone who’d gutted corporations before breakfast. His

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Culinary Sin

    Adele~My breath hitched as Detroit's hand tightened possessively on my waist, pressing me forward against the cold marble countertop. The chicken was still thawing in the sink, the faint trickle of water doing nothing to distract me from the way his fingers trailed down, grazing the curve of my hip before gripping my ass firmly again.“I—I’m supposed to wash and chop vegetables next,” I stammered, my voice barely steady. “Carrots, celery, onions. For the soup base.”“Sounds like a good start.” He grunted in my ear, “Let me help.” Without warning, his hand slipped beneath the hem of my blouse, sliding up the side of my waist, fingertips tracing teasing patterns over my skin.The heat pooling between my legs flared instantly. My pulse thundered as I bent my head, trying to focus on the pile of fresh vegetables before me. I washed them and grabbed a carrot and a peeler, peeling it slowly, but my hands wouldn't stop trembling.I swear to God, this man is something and I love…no, I'm obs

    Adele~Five course meal, I promised. The ingredients were ready, but why couldn't I begin cooking? We've just gotten home and I didn't feel so good. It must have been the tea I had. I observed Silver, who had gone to the balcony, the child looked fine. She drank her own tea in the car too. As for Detroit's potion, well, blame my greed – I drank it when he didn't want to, and now, I felt like I was walking on clouds. Not just that, I was burning up inside, and I could feel my heartbeat pounding in places it had no business pounding. My cheeks were warm, my palms clammy, and every time Detroit walked past me, the heat flared like someone had lit a match in my bloodstream.I pressed a hand to my stomach and leaned against the kitchen counter, trying to catch my breath. “Okay… maybe it was just very strong tea,” I muttered to myself, though it felt less like tea and more like someone had slipped a libido booster or aphrodisiac in there.Detroit stepped into the kitchen, loosening his cu

    Adele~ Wherever we walked through, whoever we walked by turned to give us more than a second look. Some audibly gasped, others purred, and many couldn't even keep their admiration hidden. “They're so beautiful,” I overheard one woman whisper to her friend as we passed the spice stall. “Look at that child, she's so cute I want to snatch her. Aww.” “The mother is beautiful as well. She reminds me of Adele Ford. Her husband clearly treats her right. Look at how glowing her skin is.” “Oh my God, that's true! Sue does resemble Adele Ford a lot!” I pretended not to have heard them as we continued shopping. Silver gave me a knowing look and smiled, her meaning was clear: ‘leave them confused and guessing.’ “Wow, the husband looks like a greek god in a magazine cover,” another murmured, eyes following Detroit like he was a runway model disguised as a produce shopper. Detroit didn’t react, of course, just kept that perfectly composed, mildly irritated expression, the kind that probabl

    Adele~ “Really,” I nodded. “She was so proud she personally introduced me to her friend, an art professor in the university, so I could start learning more techniques ahead of time. She told me my future would be bright as long as I didn’t slack off.” I sighed, the nostalgia mixing with something bittersweet. “And for a long time, I believed her. I worked like crazy, practicing every day, dreaming about launching my own fashion brand. I thought nothing could stop me.” Silver was watching me now with that quiet, attentive gaze kids have when they’re storing something away for later – like maybe she understood this wasn’t just a story about art, but about not letting life pull you away from the things you love. I leaned toward her with a little grin. “So you see, genius astrophysicist or not, you should never ignore what makes you genuinely happy. You never know when someone will see your work and want to hang it up for the world to admire.” “So, my dearest Little Silver,” I said w

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Trip To The Market

    Adele ~ The drive to the market was exceptionally quiet and awkward. I mean, I had imagined the relationship between father and daughter might be… strained. But what I experienced in this ride was something else entirely. It wasn’t strained. It was frozen. Silver sat in the backseat, her little face turned toward the window, expression unreadable, as if she’d decided the passing streets were more interesting than the man sitting in the driver's seat. Detroit didn’t even glance at the rearview mirror once. If he wasn't answering me grumpily, he was staring straight at the road with a deep scowl on his face, jaw tight, like he was counting down the seconds until this was over. I shifted in my seat, suddenly very aware of how loud the car seemed without conversation. This was the kind of silence that wasn’t born from shyness — it was heavy, deliberate, like two people had learned long ago that talking didn’t get them anywhere. I tried to break it. “So… uh… what grade is your daughte

  • Betrayed By Husband And Son: Rise Of A Billionaire Wife    Price To Pay

    Julia~ Sixteen years old Adele had just left the orphanage and showed up at Greenfield Academy. Julia was shocked to see Adele had left the orphanage and planned her revenge, which was to bully Adele and make her understand that this school was her territory. While the naive Adele, who was panicking as she tried to walk past so many pairs of mocking and condescending eyes, kept her head down and clutched the strap of her worn backpack like it was a lifeline. Whispers floated around her like invisible darts. "Is she the scholar from the orphanage? Does she think this school is for beggars? My parents pay hundreds of thousands for my tuition, yet someone gets to attend for free? The nerve of those people!" someone barked from the crowd. "Look at that uniform, it’s practically grey from age. My nanny’s daughter won't wear that. Eww." "Poor little orphan probably doesn’t even own a hairbrush. We should be magnanimous, she'd serve us well in the future. An errand girl for me, and
