Evelyn's face was creased with fatigue, her eyes wary. She spoke in a tone filled with weakness, "Henson, I don't want to fight anymore, days..."Henson didn't let her finish. He snapped at her, "Eve, you should leave. Let's do this some other time. I am very busy."Although Evelyn was reluctant, she turned around and walked out of the door. She took a taxi back to the company where she worked.When it was time to clock out, Maria had already noticed that her best friend Evelyn had been in a low mood throughout the day. She suggested, "Eve, remember that place on Nile Streets I told you about?"Her eyebrows were tightly knitted, but she still nodded in response. Maria said happily, "Let's go have a taste of the street food. It would be nice—and also an opportunity for you to cheer up and unwind."Evelyn wanted to resist. She hesitated before replying, "I—"Maria insisted, "I won't take no for an answer. So, we’re going together."She pulled Evelyn’s hand, then flagged down a taxi, and
Evelyn turned abruptly and left without saying a word. When she reached the gate, she burst into tears, tears streaming down her face. She quickly flagged down a taxi and got inside.At her apartment, she looked exhausted and frustrated. She reached for her phone, trembling."Maria, can you come over?" Evelyn said into the receiver.Noticing the distress in her voice, Maria asked with concern, "Girl, what's wrong? You don't sound yourself."More tears welled up as Evelyn whispered, "Please, come to my apartment. I'm waiting for you.""Hang tight, I'll be there soon," Maria replied.Evelyn ended the call, tossed her phone aside, and continued crying, her pillow soaked with tears.She stared intently at her phone screen, desperately hoping Henson would call back—surely he had made a mistake in demanding such a ridiculous request from her.But instead of a call, an hour passed. The door creaked open, and Maria entered. When she saw Evelyn lying on the bed, she gasped and hurried over, si
SYNOPSIS"You are just my cheap uncle little slut, and you expect me to marry you? What do you take me for? A retarded idiot who enjoys the leftovers of my uncle after he was tired of toying with you?" Henson mocked Evelyn.Evelyn's eyes widened in shock. She couldn't believe her own eyes that her sweet boyfriend, just a few seconds ago, had transformed into a total stranger she could hardly recognize."What the fuck are you saying? You made me do it? Yo..." She trembled, tears rolling down her cheeks. She could barely breathe.Just then, the door opened, and a smiling pretty lady walked in.Evelyn's eyes widened in shock as she blurted out, "Hannah?"CHAPTER 1Panties and clothes were all over the floor. The bed quaked, and on it, two stark naked lovers— a woman and a man— were entangled in intense pleasure.Their heavy breaths and moans filled the room. The man, Henson, pinned Evelyn's hands over her head and then lowered his head, capturing her lips.While her palms grabbed his bar
Jade was unaware that Ethan had gone to meet her foster parents. She was busy at the office when she heard that Ethan had been sent back at the gate. She was the one who had suggested the sack to the company's management, and they had acted on her advice immediately.As night fell, she finally left her office, looking exhausted.“Ma'am, many reporters and media outlets have called in. They all want to interview you,” her secretary informed her. “I asked them what the matter was, but none of them would speak or give me any details. I’m still trying to find out more.”Jade sighed and replied, “I’m too tired. Maybe tomorrow.”She got into her car and drove home. As she pulled out of the company parking lot, she noticed a crowd gathered at the gate. She didn’t think much of it and continued on her way.Upon arriving home, she stepped out of her car, stretched, and entered the house.“Welcome home, Ma’am,” the housekeeper greeted her with a warm smile.“Thank you,” Jade replied, returning
Ethan had already figured out that Jade was behind all of this. Determined, he stormed toward the entrance, but the security guards blocking the gate immediately stepped in his way.One of them threatened, "Take one more step, and I’ll have my colleagues come down on you. Don’t even try to act smart with me. I’ll make sure you look more handsome — in a way you won’t like."Fear prickled through Ethan. The memory of being beaten by Greg still haunted him, but he refused to back down. He stayed put, shouting at the top of his lungs, "I don’t deserve to be sacked! This is abuse of power! Jade, come out here! You were once my girlfriend — because you’re a gold-digger, you left me. Because you’re now screwing the chairman, you think you can do whatever you want? Get down here! I want you to look me in the eye and tell me I’m fired!"He continued yelling, his voice echoing through the area. Before long, a police car pulled up and parked nearby.Realizing he was attracting too much attention
Ethan gave up when the car went out of sight. He stood there, not knowing what to do or say. After some time, he stopped a taxi and returned to his apartment.Once inside, he called Ken."Connect me to another attorney, since you are not ready to handle my case," Ethan requested coldly, his face filled with anger. He felt Ken had betrayed him and was indirectly mocking him.Ken retorted, "No one would be willing to take up your case, Ethan. Who is it that you've really offended?"When Ethan heard this question, he sat up. He realized at that moment that it wasn't because Ken didn't want to take the case, but that someone was interfering and making it impossible.He pondered seriously and couldn't remember offending anyone. He replied, "No idea."Ken then sighed heavily before advising Ethan, "I tried taking your case to court, but I wasn't allowed to file it. So, there's nothing I can do, Ethan. You will have to split your paycheck with Clara until the powerful person gets bored of pl
