The doctor bowed to Valencia and the Cirillo family as soon as he completed his report. The Cirillo family already expected the doctor's report because it was just like during the quadruplet's pregnancy. Valencia's health always turns frail whenever she's pregnant. Due to that, she will always have a meal and nutrition timetable curved for her; she'll have to lessen her work and take more rest, etc. and it was just as the doctor said after checking Valencia up “This means Valencia has to stop visiting that damn filming location.” Aviva immediately expressed as soon as the doctor left. Aviva parted her chest and smiled sweetly. “I really didn't want Valencia to hang around that...” damn Maverick… Before Aviva could complete her words, she immediately recalled the presence of the smartass quadruplet, which put a stop to her words. Aviva was afraid that if she wasn't careful, she might mistakenly let out some words to the quadruplet. And since the quadruplet are very smart. T
“Brother three.” Burke stroked his chin and stared at Maverick intently as if he wanted to know what was going through Maverick's mind. At the realization of what's about to happen, Burke can't help finding the feeling very exhilarating. He has been standing on tiptoes all this while, suddenly not standing on it. Feels really great. Burke stared at Maverick, a Cheshire grin on his face. “Quit drinking. There are several different fish in the ocean; when you lose a woman, you'll find…” Before Burke could complete his statement, a fierce and piercing glare from Maverick landed on Burke. However, Burke, who's in an extremely good mood, didn't hesitate to ignore it. Farell shook his head slightly before turning to Maverick, who was downing alcohol after alcohol. He eyed him before seriously asking, “Are you in love with Valencia…” Before he could complete his words, a dark glare landed on him. Farell immediately switched the question even though he already had a thought in hi
“That person is truly following your movement.” Farrell stared down at the beautiful busy city, the cigarette in between his finger burning; his sleeves rolled upward revealing his muscular hand and his bewitching figure very eye-catching, effortlessly. Maverick's face was blank and his eyes were calm and serene, no emotions appearing in them. It was as if he already expected Farrell's words. “En.” He simply articulated. “Corbyn is cooperating with you this time.” Farrell arched his brows, his voice filled with his curiosity. Although those two are always antagonizing each other, they know each other the best. In other ways, they can also be called friends, especially when they have common goals. However, this time Corbyn is helping Maverick without receiving a benefit. It made Farrell a bit shocked. Especially after Valencia's history with the duo. Maverick’s eyes flickered. He already knew the madman was around and tracking all his actions. Due to that reason, Maverick and Cor
As soon as Maverick left the filming location, different girls crowded around Tatiana, their eyes filled with excitement and envy. ‘Miss Tatiana, young master Maverick truly cares for you. He even personally held you and led you in like an important treasure. Young Master Maverick truly cares for Miss Tatiana and spoils her to heaven. That's right. When Miss Tatiana and Young Master Maverick stood together, they looked like a match made in heaven. The sight truly feels so ethereal, like it's straight out of a painting. Ah. It seems Miss Tatiana and Maverick are about to get together. Is this a subtle announcement? Miss Tatiana, when you become Mrs. Vandenberg, don't forget me. The group of girls immediately turned to Tatiana and clasped their hands together. “Don't forget us when you become Mrs. Vandenberg,’ Tatiana's eyes softened, and she lowered her head, her face extremely red, and shy yet her chin raised, and deep in her eyes was pride and arrogance. Tatiana smiled shyl
“Yes, director.” Valencia took a step back and turned to leave. However, she had just taken the first step when her phone suddenly began to vibrate incessantly. Valencia paused in her tracks and her brows furrowed in bewilderment, wondering what was happening. This kind of occurrence. Valencia had felt it in the past, a long time ago. And that was back then when Valencia still chased after Maverick shamelessly. Valencia restrained her thoughts and took out her phone. At that moment she realized that the notification was from social media. Valencia hasn't been active on social media ever since she arrived in the country yet… Immediately, a bad premonition surfaced in her mind. Nevertheless, Valencia tapped open the social media app and began to scroll through it. Soon, a photo and video appeared on Valencia's feed, causing her to freeze. Currently, on social media, Valencia and actor Roman are trending. An anonymous uploader somehow got their hands on the scene of Roman pus
The sun shone bright in the sky, and the street was filled with average and old-looking buildings; the road wasn’t completely tiled and had potholes and bumps. The car sleekly rolled to a stop in front of a high-rise rental apartment. The apartment has dirty and old paint, and the building looks old itself as if it has been standing for years. Valencia familiarly walked into the apartment and maneuvered her way around. She paused in front of the dark stairs, and a nostalgic feeling overwhelmed her. Valencia took in a deep breath and began to ascend the stairs. She only came to a pause when she arrived at the fourth floor. Valencia raised her hands, about to knock on the door when the door was suddenly opened by a female in her twenties. Even though the girl was dressed in an old shirt and shorts, it wasn’t enough to hide her exquisite beauty. She has an angelic, innocent face, and she has a soft look. She’s the type of beauty that can sway the heart of any man without even cast
Valencia and Aneira met each other for the first time during childhood, and they both attended the same middle school and high school, including college. It can be said that both of them are closer than sisters. Only Aneira knows everything about Valencia, including how obsessed Valencia was regarding Maverick. Back then Aneira even gave Valencia money and helped Valencia in chasing after Maverick, including getting involved in all the degrading things Valencia did for Maverick. However, after realizing Maverick's treatment toward Valencia, how degrading Valencia is becoming, and how Valencia's reputation is ruining day by day for Maverick, she realizes that Maverick doesn't deserve Valencia at all. At such a realization, Aneira ordered Valencia to stop chasing after Maverick, or they could forget being friends anymore. At first, Valencia thought Aneira was joking around. However, after the third time of being pursued or ignored by Aneira, she realized that she had already lo
Valencia immediately turned to Aneira and stared at her seriously. “This place is not safe for you.” Who knows if the CEO and the Lincoln family already had Aneira in mind and might be planning on how to take revenge on Aneira? No, it definitely must be that way! Valencia isn’t willing to compromise Aneira’s safety. No, she isn’t. Immediately, Valencia came to a decision. Aneira had to leave with her! “Will you come with me?” Valencia asked while staring at Aneira seriously. Upon hearing Valencia’s question, Aneira’s eyes widened, and she stared at Valencia in disbelief. Suddenly, Aneira’s lips curved up, and she smiled, a proud smile on her face. Aneira shook her head and beamed while touching her chest and wiping tears away from her eyes dramatically. “I feel like a proud mother right now. My little baby Valencia is all grown up.” She cried out in joy and engulfed Valencia in a hug. Back then all Valencia thought about was becoming Maverick’s wife, but right now… Aneira
“Maverick.” Farrell's eyes turned sharp, and he reproached upon seeing Maverick blatantly sit up from the bed as if to get out of it.Maverick had just been shot twice, for heaven's sake. It’s only heaven that knows how he didn’t black out after receiving two shots to his chest.Right now, all Maverick was supposed to do was cooperate and receive treatment, but NO. Maverick was very impatient to leave the ward and hospital altogether!Maverick had been forced and locked down before he could be taken to the hospital and before the doctor removed the bullet.Now that he was supposed to receive full treatment, Maverick stood up from the bed to leave—everything all on his own. It was as if he couldn’t even feel the pain of the gunshot. Did Maverick think he had a thousand lives? How could he be so careless and reckless?Maverick indifferently picked up his suit, indifferent to Farrell’s disapproval.Maverick’s hand pressed on his chest to apply pressure to the wound, the pain also alertin
A few decades ago, in a gambling center, Butler Leo met a competitor.This competitor was a wealthy man who didn’t know how to gamble, and as a result, he lost a lot of money to Butler Leo. However, the most interesting thing was that this person wasn’t annoyed at all and instead chose to be Butler Leo’s friend.Soon, they became such close friends that Butler Leo started helping him deliver some work—and soon he had already joined the illegal organization.The organization paid him a huge sum and gave him a spy mission: to take over the Vandenberg family and make everything belong to him.At that time, Blauch Vandenberg had just married his beautiful wife. The couple had been in love and wanted to have their baby. Unfortunately, one year, two, three, four, and five years passed—they couldn’t get a child regardless of how much they went to the hospital.While both of them thought that this was just an ordinary thing, or they hadn’t tried their best, what they didn’t know was that Butl
Immediately the gunshot rang, blood spurted from Butler Leo and the guard who had just handed the gun to Maverick.Maverick had just shot both of them!Upon seeing them collapse on the floor, Zan's expression changed, and he sprang up.Zan pointed at Maverick and growled, his voice filled with rage, “Maverick, what do you think you are doing?”Zan was in control. How dare Maverick go against his wish? Did Maverick think Zan couldn’t end him with a move? How dare he?For the first time, Zan's eyes showed a slight trace of anxiousness. “Call the doctor to treat Butler Leo,” he declared and immediately directed a piercing glare at Maverick.When the Vandenberg family had dumped him, the only one to support and boost his morale was Butler Leo. He'd never forgive himself if Butler Leo was in danger because of him.Maverick’s lips slowly curved up, and a faint smile appeared on his face. The solemnness on his face had already disappeared. He retorted calmly with one word, “Guess!”Before Za
Immediately, Tatiana was lowered so much that with just a little stretch, her feet would sink into the acid completely.Tatiana's face was as pale as a sheet, and she tried to fold her legs. Tears were now streaming past her eyes rapidly, and her whole elegant and innocent image was tossed into the wind. She kept screaming for Maverick to save her.Zan indifferently leaned against the chair and propped his chin. “Let me tell you a story. One day, a sick boy met a sick girl in the hospital, and since then, they have become close friends. So close that they even rolled the sheets. That boy was me, and that girl was your lovely and innocent Tatiana,” he revealed, a wicked and tyrant-like smile on his face.Upon hearing this, the crowd's quietness immediately broke, and they mumbled to each other, their eyes now filled with disdain as they fell on Tatiana.Upon hearing Zan's words, Tatiana's heart skipped a beat, and it began to thump against her chest.Zan folded his hands behind his hea
"Young Master Maverick, Grandfather Blauch Vandenberg, dear aunt and uncle, it’s been a long time; have you missed me?" The dark chuckle of the person with an altered voice suddenly reverberated in the mansion.Seeing the stunned reaction on their faces, a faint disparaging chuckle filled with anger spilt past his lips."It’s Zan," the person from the other end declared, the alteration in his voice already eliminated, revealing a familiar voice. Interesting.They already made themselves all about the Vandenberg family and didn’t care about the one they killed.Upon hearing this, the crowd's petrified expression changed to one filled with disbelief.Zan? Young Master Zan Vandenberg is alive?A hushed mumble filled with shock began to pervade the hall.Zan Vandenberg? Who is Zan Vandenberg?Although most of the new generation did not recognize this name, it wasn’t the same for the old generation.There was a history whose mention was forbidden in the Vandenberg family, and as a result,
‘Ahhhh, help me. Save me. Maverick, please save me. I don’t want to die…’The sudden cry of Tatiana and the video of a pale Tatiana and Valencia hanging above a dangerous pit suddenly took over the screen.Valencia. Maverick’s expression changed, and his hands balled into fists.Even though Maverick wanted to pronounce that name so badly, he didn't.“Valencia," Aneira and Aviva cried out and sprang up in shock, their hands flying to their mouths.Corbyn and the Cirillos’ expressions turned cold, and they immediately swept a cold glare filled with killing intent at Maverick and the Vandenberg family.It was clear that they were saying that if anything dared to happen to Valencia because of the Vandenberg family, then they would never let go of the Vandenberg family in this lifetime.The two families would be nothing but enemies from then on, and they'd do everything to see that the Vandenberg family was destroyed.The sudden ringing of Maverick's phone broke the tense atmosphere in the
“Valencia…”Maverick’s legs rooted to a stop upon finding no trace of the woman in the bedroom; his brows knitted slightly.Nevertheless, Maverick placed down the platter that held neatly cut fruit, a bottle of water, and a glass of warm milk on the table.Instantly, Maverick strode toward the bathroom and pushed the door open.Upon finding no trace of Valencia, his calm facade broke and his expression changed.Regardless of how fast Valencia could be, she wasn’t supposed to have left the room considering the state he had left her in.Valencia would need to shower and change her dress.Not to mention that Valencia knew that Maverick went to get warm water, so why would she leave without waiting for him to return?Immediately, a bad premonition crept into Maverick’s heart.Nevertheless, his eyes were calm, and he had a hold on his composure.However, anyone who knew Maverick well enough would know that that was the calm before the storm.Maverick picked up his phone and dialed Assistan
Valencia blinked, rubbed her eyes, and yawned for the umpteenth time.Due to the pregnancy, Valencia’s sleep had increased a lot these days.Although Valencia had tried to prepare herself, she didn't expect that she would still have the urge to sleep at the party.It’s just been a few minutes since she arrived at the Vandenberg family—how can the urge be so strong?As if noticing Valencia and her inner dialogue, Blauch Vandenberg paused in his tracks and turned to Valencia with a sigh. “Don't hold it in. Go in and rest. Grandpa will send the maid to call you when the party starts,” he conveyed.Upon hearing this, Valencia’s eyes lit up, and she broke into a smile. “Thank you, Grandpa.” Valencia nodded enthusiastically and took a step back to leave.“Miss, I'll bring you to the guest room,” one of the Vandenberg maids politely articulated with a bow.Valencia nodded and allowed the maid to lead her into the guest room. “Young Miss Valencia, please call this maid if you need anything,”
This jerk! Valencia's expression changed, and she dodged, evading his lips before they could land on hers.This fight became a tugging between cat and dog?Suddenly, Valencia stopped struggling, and she glared at Maverick coldly, her eyes flashing with disdain and exasperation.Valencia scolded the shameless man who now focused on placing kisses on her neck and cheeks due to her refusal, “Mr. Maverick, could it be that you have fallen in love with me? Look carefully; I'm Valencia. Valencia. Your Tatiana is at the party. Outside of this restroom.”Maverick’s throat rolled, and he grunted, “I know.”If only the woman knew how hard it had been to control the urge to strip off her dress and take her hard right now so much that everyone at the party would know that she belonged to him.Under Maverick's dark gaze, Valencia couldn't help shivering, wanting nothing but to escape this temperamental and eccentric Maverick, but all to no avail.Suddenly, Valencia's brows furrowed. If he knew, th
