Marriage was just around the corner. Perry, the groom-to-be, had been beaming lately, a happiness he couldn't hide.

But it was all for show, not genuine.

Stepping out after reporting on his work, he was met by subordinates congratulating him on his upcoming marriage. He accepted their well wishes with a smile, but the moment he turned away, an unmistakable gloom settled on his face. He went to the restroom, splashed water on his face, and took shallow breaths.

Suddenly, someone approached from

  • Mr. Frost’s Reluctant Prisoner Bride   Chapter 277

    The call from Leila came in the dead of night, jarring Julian awake. They hadn't spoken in two years, not since Adrian's birthday party. He hesitated, a fleeting thought, then answered, propping himself against the headboard. His gaze drifted to the figure beside him, Vanessa, her back to him, deep in sleep. Every night since their marriage, it had been the same. An embrace? That was an even more distant memory.Leila's choked sobs shattered the quiet stillness. "Julian, please, can you come get me? Adrian kicked me out. My sister... even for my sister's sake, please.""Why would he kick you out?""I don't know," she whimpered. "He just said it was because of my sister."Leila, bundled with her luggage, was sitting by the main gate. "Julian, please hurry. It's freezing out here.""Leila," he warned, his voice low. "You had better not be lying to me.""I'm not!" she insisted. "Have I come seeking you out at all these past few years?"S

    Evelyn's mental state wasn't good. Her mind was fixated solely on Vanessa, leading her to violently lash out at Cameron. Cameron initially just wanted to calm her down, intending to restrain her. Unexpectedly, she started mumbling and shouting Ivy's name.When Adrian entered, Cameron, in a fit of panic, violently slapped Evelyn across the face to silence her."Mom—!" Adrian rushed in, pushing Cameron away and cradling Evelyn in his arms, his brows furrowed in a deep frown. "Dad, how could you lay a hand on her? Don't you know she's sick?""Even if she's sick, that's no excuse to act insane. If she doesn't improve, send her to the hospital and get a caregiver to watch her.""What, after driving away your own daughter, now you're going to drive away your wife?" Adrian's words dripped with disdain for his hypocritical father. "I truly admire you, being able to hide for so many years. And Ivy, she harmed Vanessa, and now you want to harm my mom. Do you believ

    No matter what Adrian said, Vanessa remained unwavering, dead-set on severing ties with the Voss family and never contacting them again.Seeing her like this, Julian's emotions were complex. If she could treat the mother who had loved and protected her like that, how could she possibly still harbor any feelings for him?But he was a stubborn man.No feelings.Then he would simply take the person."Vanessa, you're being a little heartless."Julian wiped the blood from his hand, uttering the words as if an afterthought. Vanessa's eyes snapped into focus, staring at him with profound disbelief — the man who had promised to make amends again and again, only to wound her repeatedly. "Am I heartless? Who was it that knew I was innocent, yet still threw me into the eye of the storm?"Julian had brought it up casually, not expecting such a fierce reaction from Vanessa. "You misunderstand. Back then, no one knew you were innocent. Who el

    Julian had been injured, though not as severely as expected.The Voss' first floor was silent, the interwoven breaths of everyone present forming a suffocating net. Vanessa felt breathless as she stepped inside, her eyes immediately drawn to Julian sitting on the sofa, blood still trickling from the back of his hand. Blood also smeared his face, his pupils dark, as if harboring an unvented hatred.Cameron's blood pressure surged with rage, his face a mask of fury. The moment Vanessa entered, he abruptly stood, glaring at her not like a father at his daughter, but like a judge at an unpardonable criminal. "Get this person out of here right now! I haven't called the police this time, all for your sake.""Then you should just call the police. I don't want that consideration," Vanessa retorted. She glanced at the Voss' reception hall, which remained untouched, unlike the living room she'd passed on her way in, now a complete wreck.Cameron, still fuming from Julian's earlier antics, now h

    Vanessa was at the piano store when she received a call from the Voss family. After a moment of hesitation, she picked it up.She walked aside, away from Cameron, and Cameron's voice came through the receiver, "Vanessa, come home immediately and take your husband away.""Julian?" Vanessa didn't understand Cameron's words. "Why is Julian at the Voss family home?""He's here for Ivy. You married him, yet you can't even keep an eye on your own husband. And even now, he's still coming to me for another woman, isn't he?" Cameron found the mere thought absurd, let alone the fact that it was actually happening, Julian right before his eyes, undeniably real.Vanessa still didn't understand, but she caught the note of reprimand in Cameron's voice. She no longer called him 'Dad'; he had no right to lecture her."So what if we're married? Didn't Aunt Evelyn fail to keep an eye on you?" Vanessa was not fragile. Her previous demeanor was a result of being terrified of life, having endured enough b

    As they stepped out of the private room together, Adrian, unable to hold back any longer, shoved Julian hard, deliberately keeping his voice low."What exactly are you trying to do? Are you only satisfied when everyone knows about this?"Julian patted the collar of his shirt, his downcast eyes slowly lifting. "It's not me making things this way. It's you hiding secrets, and of course, I'll stop at nothing to figure them out.""Why should I tell you my business?" Adrian scoffed dismissively, as if looking down on Julian. They had once been united on the matter of Ivy, wronging and humiliating Vanessa because of it.But not anymore.Julian had married Vanessa, and asking about this now was simply wrong of him."Is that your business? That's Ivy's business," Julian declared with righteous indignation, as if he'd forgotten that Vanessa was his wife."You're going to such lengths to find out about Ivy, but have you ever cared about Vanessa's feelings?"Vanessa didn't care, so what could Ju

    Julian was born arrogant, with high expectations for the women by his side – family background, personality, looks, all had to be satisfactory. These women were clearly not, but Vanessa…She was, after all, somewhat different.But she was no longer the Voss family's eldest daughter. Although his fe

    But without a trace of extra emotion, she turned slightly, avoiding the glaring and ambiguous scene. Facing the sunlight, she continued to carefully wipe the body of the violin. That profile was more indifferent than a hundred rejections and evasions.Julian suppressed his anger and went downstairs

    A blur flashed before her, and Vanessa raised her hand, delivering a sharp slap to Julian’s face. He lowered his eyes, hesitantly raising a hand to touch his cheek, a dark and brutal ferocity instantly surfacing in his pupils.That slap nearly cost Vanessa her life.If it hadn’t been for the call f

  • Mr. Frost’s Reluctant Prisoner Bride   Chapter 43

    Looking up at Vanessa, she felt only endless sorrow.“…Miss, I almost didn’t see you again.”Vanessa forced herself to suppress the violently surging emotions. “How did it become like this?”“It’s nothing, just had some conflicts with others inside.”Julian had clearly promised to only detain him,
