Awakened by the sunlight, Jenna opened her eyes and stretched. The bed was very comfortable. She looked to her left and noticed that Sean was gone. Last night he had caught her sneaking into the bed, how embarrassing. Now he knew he could control her. But where is he? Jenna often thought about his words. 'If you give yourself to me, your life with me will be wonderful.''Does he want me to throw away all my honor to serve him?' Jenna thought. She still didn't know why Sean wanted her, it seemed he could get anyone he wanted. Jenna went into the bathroom to clean up and looked at herself in the mirror. She looked very sad. Her beautiful eyes had lost their sparkle, and from crying so much, the dark circles under her eyes had become very swollen and red. Her skin was pale and dull. She combed her tangled hair and looked a little better, then left the room. She was very hungry, so she looked for food in the kitchen and met the waiter. "Good morning, miss. Your breakfast, please.
"I will not tolerate your bad behavior. I've been patient with you, but this is enough!" He grabbed Jenna's jaw and the woman flinched.Jenna nodded quickly, not wanting to upset him. "I understand. I won't do it again."Sean was still leaning over her, and now he lifted Jenna's chin, then kissed her. Jenna tried not to look away from him out of fear, but when she felt his hand go down and into her panties. She couldn't resist getting rid of it.The man stroked her pussy and goose bumps were all over Jenna's body."Please forgive me." Jenna closed her eyes, afraid to move, wishing she could escape reality, but unfortunately she felt everything. Sean continued to caress her pussy and Jenna moved to remove his hand. "P-Please, please. Stop it." She begged again, which made him laugh. "Tell me, what is one of the most important rules?" Sean climbed on top of her. His body towered over her, looking down at her from above. "I-I must obey you." Jenna whispered softly and saw his wicked
Later that afternoon, Sean came home from work to find Jenna lying almost lifeless in her room with her wrists slashed.He walked over to Jenna, helped her up, looked at her bloody left hand, and asked, "Why did you do this?"Jenna fell into his arms and cried. She almost passed out from the pain, yet strangely she hadn't lost consciousness yet. She thought she was going to die after not calling for help."Why are you doing this?" Sean asked again in a low voice. Looking at the wound on Jenna's hand, he knew very well that this woman hadn't cut her wrist deep enough, so the wound wasn't that life threatening.It was a stupid way to commit suicide and very unprofessional. How dare she challenge Sean Anderson with that kind of skill."Please, let me go..." Jenna mumbled weakly, meaning that she wanted Sean to let her die because she had no reason to live anymore.Her family had been destroyed and now the only treasure she had left, her pride, had been taken away from her by him. Rather
The next day, at noon, Jenna saw a van parked in the driveway and some workers moving furniture upstairs. She asked Sarah, "Sarah, what are they doing?"Sarah replied, "Master has bought some new things, including a wardrobe and shoe cabinet for you in your new room. The clothes and shoes themselves have also been delivered. Master just called and asked me to help you arrange them.""New room?""Yes, you will be moving into the room next to Master.""All right, thank you, Sarah." Jenna went upstairs and when she reached the room she saw that the bed and the floor were filled with bags of clothes and shoes.Jenna went over and looked at them. The room was huge, probably twice the size of her rented house. There were cabinets all around and a sofa in the middle. The layout was beautiful and very elegant.Jenna opened one of the closets and found it empty.Just then, Lily, the head butler, knocked on the door and came in with Sarah carrying a large bag, asking permission to organize the
Jenna was having sex for the first time, but Sean had been asking too much of her for several days in a row, so her face looked very pale. She looked lethargic at breakfast.In the middle of eating, she stabbed at the food with her fork, but her mind wandered.Sean narrowed his eyes and ordered in a cold voice. "Drink the milk!""Okay!" Jenna snapped out of her reverie, picked up the milk and drank it.Sean added. "Finish the food too," he said, then said to Sarah, "Get her something to nourish her body! She's pale as a ghost!" Then he left the table.Jenna sat down stiffly."Come here!" Sean shouted from the doorway, "Come here and put on my shoes."Jenna turned around in shock, unable to believe it. What did he want her to do? Put on his shoes? Was it not enough for her to warm the bed, now she had to be a maid too?Jenna got up and walked over to him, standing in front of him without moving.He looked up at her. "Put my shoes on."Jenna moved her lips but dared not speak. She crou
The wound on Jenna's hand healed quickly, and she was finally able to return to campus, just as Sean had promised.As soon as the lecture was over, Jenna ran to leave the campus, but as she reached the gate, she saw Sarah standing in front of a black car, and this woman was staring at her silently.Jenna was startled and unconsciously took a step back.Sarah broke through the crowd and approached her, calling respectfully, "Miss...""Why are you here?" Jenna asked in a low voice as she looked around anxiously. Fortunately, her car wasn't the only one parked outside the campus, and the students weren't interested in such things, so no one noticed her."Mr. Sean asked me to pick you up.""But... I'm not done yet!" She told Sean that she would have lunch on campus and go home after his classes ended at 3 pm."Then why are you out?" Sarah asked. She had apparently been there since the morning."I... I wanted to get something to eat. The cafeteria is too crowded."Sarah looked at the bag o
Almost every day Jenna begged Lily to help her escape.In fact, even though she was allowed to go to class, Sarah and her driver, who doubled as her bodyguard, watched her all the time.Jenna's life had been pretty quiet the last few days as Sean seemed to be very busy.When the door to her room was opened from outside, Jenna thought it was just Sarah or Lily, so she ignored it, but who would have thought that it was Sean who came in. The man had completely ignored her lately. Jenna almost thought he had gotten tired of her.She hardly ever saw Sean, except when he got into his car in the front yard, which was visible from the second floor window of her room.Jenna furrowed her brow, wondering why this man was never the least bit cheerful and smiling? Even when he smiled, it was a wicked, cynical smile. Did he never feel happy in his heart?Without further ado, Sean threw his coat on the chair and loosened his tie, then looked at Jenna sharply, "What did you ask Sarah?"Jenna immedia
It was 10 a.m., when Jenna was supposed to go to college, but today the car that was taking her stopped on a busy street, and it wasn't the street to college! Jenna asked the driver: "Where are we going?"Sarah looked back and politely helped answer, "Mr. Sean asked me to take you to his office.""Office? But I have to go to class.""But this is Mr. Sean's order."Jenna was so angry that she wanted to push the car door open and jump out. Sarah hastily added, "Miss, calm down! Mr. Sean may want to take you to lunch. If he agrees to let you go to campus after lunch, you can still attend your next class."Jenna was stunned. She knew that Sarah was right, but she still felt uncomfortable. Sean was clearly doing this on purpose. In short, he probably didn't want her to be able to finish her studies!Jenna was angry, but she had to hold it in.The car soon stopped in front of the Anderson Group building, and there were more than 30 floors where all the employees worked. The higher the flo
“Stop zoning out on me, Val!” Sean said, noticing Valeria had spaced out. “Are you okay?” he asked, a confused look on his face. There was a hint of concern in his eyes. Valeria frowned. “Yeah,” she said, lifting her chin. Sean gave a small chuckle and shook his head. “Where do you live?” he asked again. “I don’t give my address to strangers,” Valeria shot back quickly. “But you know me,” he said casually. “No, I don’t. I just know your name—and knowing someone’s name doesn’t mean I know them,” she replied sharply. Sean’s smile froze for a second, but then it returned. “Fair enough. So… why don’t we get to know each other?” Valeria raised an eyebrow, clearly suspicious. “And why would I want that?” she asked, arms crossed over her chest. “You know you want to,” he replied with a smug grin—the kind that made Valeria roll her eyes. Men and their cocky smiles. “I know exactly what I want,” Valeria said firmly. “Exactly. That’s what I’m saying,” Sean replied, still looking enti
“It was my fault,” Ethan said softly. Valeria’s heart cracked hearing his trembling voice, but she knew she had to let him speak before jumping in to comfort him. “Why do you think that?” she asked gently, stroking his head as he sat curled up, knees pulled to his chest. The boy looked up at her, eyes glassy with tears. “I took her favorite doll and ran. She started chasing after me, yelling for me to give it back. I didn’t stop, and then she tripped and fell,” Ethan explained, lips quivering. Valeria cupped his small face and brushed his tears away with her thumb. “Sweetheart, it wasn’t your fault,” she said softly. She didn’t correct his grammar—this wasn’t the time. “You were just playing with your sister, and that’s okay. But now you know, right? You need to be a bit more careful next time.” Ethan gave a small nod. Valeria smiled and kissed his forehead. “You’re her big brother. It’s in your nature to protect and look out for her. But that doesn’t mean you’re not allowed to
“Emily! She’s in the hospital!” Valeria gasped, her voice cracking. Her face went pale, and panic clouded her eyes. Ben froze for a second before grabbing her arm. “Let’s go,” he said firmly, pulling her toward the elevator. “Sorry, this is urgent. I’ll make it up to you another time. We have to go,” he told Esther and Carter over his shoulder. “It’s fine, go,” they said in unison, both stepping aside. Valeria’s fingers trembled as she jabbed the elevator button. When the doors slid open, they stepped inside. Just before they closed again, Valeria caught sight of Sean at the end of the hallway. His expression was unreadable—confused, maybe concerned. Only a second passed before the elevator doors sealed shut, cutting her off from him. A few minutes later, Valeria sat in the passenger seat of Ben’s car. Her hands fidgeted in her lap, heart pounding too hard for her to breathe right. It was a cold night. Ben glanced at her, trying to offer a sense of calm. “She’s going to be okay
“Hey!” Valeria greeted the handsome man in front of her with a friendly smile. He looked frozen. His eyes were on her, but his mind was clearly somewhere else. There was something in his gaze a mix of worry and fear that made Valeria uneasy. “What’s going on with you?” Valeria asked. “Jenna…” another man walked up and called out to her. Why does everyone keep calling me that? Valeria thought, frustrated. She let out a long sigh and rolled her eyes. “Sorry, but I’m Valeria, not Jenna,” she said sharply. “Who even is this Jenna, anyway?” Her head was starting to ache. She pressed her temples, trying to ease the throbbing pain that was starting to dig in. “Hey, it’s okay…” Ben whispered softly, his voice calm and soothing. His warm hand wrapped around her shoulder. “Take a deep breath, alright?” Valeria closed her eyes, trying to follow his instruction. She could feel the softness of the couch beneath her, the only stable thing in the middle of her emotional chaos. “Okay, sorry.
Jenna looked so innocent and beautiful that night. Her purple dress hugged her body gracefully, making her look like a teenager who had wandered into an adult party. Sean couldn’t take his eyes off her. He stood beside his mother, who was deep in conversation with an old friend, but he wasn’t paying attention at all. His eyes were fixed solely on Jenna. His jaw clenched when he saw a man's hand around Jenna’s waist. Without realizing it, his fists balled up. The urge to walk over and yank that hand away was strong, but he held back and just took a deep breath. When the hand finally dropped away, he exhaled too. A faint smile returned to his face. “What’s wrong?” Mrs. Veronica’s voice snapped him out of it. He quickly turned to her, trying to fix his expression. “Nothing!” he said quickly, not even sure what she was asking about. Mrs. Veronica raised an eyebrow, suspicious. But before she could press him further, Sean mumbled an apology and walked off toward the minibar. Away fro
Valeria muttered under her breath as another taxi zoomed past without even slowing down. “I seriously need to buy a car.” She’d been standing there for almost an hour, yet not a single empty cab had stopped.The cold breeze made her shiver. She hugged herself, regretting not wearing a sweater or something warmer. Her simple purple dress with black floral patterns looked cute, sure—but it was definitely not made for weather like this.“Maybe I shouldn’t have come at all,” she mumbled, staring down the empty street in frustration.She let out a long sigh. The baby shower still had to be attended, even if Ben had said she didn’t need to. Emily said the dress looked great on her, and Valeria couldn’t resist the idea of seeing that adorable little baby again.Suddenly, a car stopped right in front of her. She flinched, heart nearly leaping out of her chest.“Ben?” she gasped, placing a hand over her heart. “You almost gave me a heart attack!”Ben rolled down the window. “You need a ride, o
“Bye, kids!” Valeria called out, waving at them as they ran toward the school gate. They paused to wave back before continuing on. Once they were safely inside, Ben started the car and they headed toward the café. “You know, you don’t have to do this every day. I can get my own car,” Valeria said, staring out the window, fully aware of Ben glancing her way as they stopped at a red light. “So I’m supposed to risk losing you again? No thanks,” Ben replied as the light turned green and they drove on. This time, Valeria turned to look at him. “Come on, Ben. That happened months ago. I’m fine now, totally capable of driving myself. You can’t babysit me forever, you know?” she added, turning her gaze back outside. “I can, and I will,” Ben said firmly. The rest of the ride was quiet. When they reached the café, Valeria got out without saying a word and headed straight inside. He didn’t seriously expect her to never drive again, right? She let out a deep sigh, dropped her bag behind t
Ben walked up to her, smiling. She smiled back until she bumped into someone. She looked down and found the same little boy from the cafe. “Oh, it’s you!” she said, crouching. “Mom?” Oliver said with a big smile. The word made Valeria uncomfortable, and she glanced at everyone—especially Alexa. Alexa was right there, so why was the kid calling her “mom”? “Oh! You live here?” Valeria asked. The boy grinned, his missing front teeth making him look even cuter. “I went to Colorado with my dad,” he said simply. Valeria’s eyes moved to the little girl next to him. “And this?” “I’m Oliver,” the boy said with a proud smile. “And this is my sister, Olivia.” Valeria chuckled, remembering how adorable Emily and Ethan could be. “You can call me Val,” she told them. Oliver’s eyes shifted to Ben, who was standing beside her. “This is Ben,” Valeria added. Ben crouched beside her with a mock scowl. “Hey, bro,” he said, then winked at Valeria, making her heart race. Ben chuck
A woman walked, pulling her jacket tighter around her small frame as the cold wind hit her. The click of her boots on the floor was the only sound echoing through the space. She still couldn’t believe her eyes when she found out Jenna was alive. A year ago, she had felt so relieved, thinking she’d finally gotten rid of her. But now the girl was back— that annoying little thing who once clung to their lives like a parasite. The woman turned sharply left and stepped into a dark alley. The path was narrow barely enough for one person to walk through without brushing against the brick walls on both sides. The alley was long and pitch black, forcing her to squint and step carefully. Part of her grumbled at how she couldn’t see a thing, but another part was glad the darkness was hiding whatever creepy crawlies were on those walls. She shivered and almost screamed when something scurried across her $26,000 boots. A flickering bulb at the end of the alley gave her a target, and she ran to
