"Can I touch your abs?" Her sweet and soft voice was hooking on Leon's heartstrings.He raised a brow and gritted his teeth.Really testing his patience...He gave a small nod, calming his expression, still leisurely lying down.Anika saw him acquiesce and happily poked his tight abdomen. Then slowly, it was her palm, quietly feeling the scorching skin before her.The fair softness of her hand was a great contrast to his dark and hard muscles, the visual allure was blinding.Leon was trying to calm himself down, but his abdomen couldn't help but tighten every time the cold fingers grazed his skin."Like it?" His voice obviously became deeper as he asked. His raised hand that pillowed his head fisted.Anika's palm scratched Leon's abs, and she leaned forward, her head lying on his chest. She looked up with her doe and clean eyes."So hard.." She whispered. Her innocent expression was a great contrast to what she was doing and saying.Leon finally couldn't bare it anymore and grabbed he

"Welcome home, Anika!" Esther greeted as soon as she stepped into the mansion.When she received Anika's message saying they were already back, she didn't bother to reply and hurriedly got ready to head here.Steward Ben opened the door for her, and seeing the visitor, he couldn't help but furrow his brows.The family just got back. Visiting right at this moment was a little too.."Esther!"Steward Ben swallowed his words and backed away when he saw Anika greeting Esther happily.Well, if the head of the house doesn't see anything wrong, what else could he, as an employee, say?So, Steward Ben backed down.Anika led Esther to the living hall and sat down with her. She didn't think anything was wrong."Little Addie is here, too? No school?" Esther asked with pleasantries and waved to the child.Anika beckoned to Adelaide to come closer."Say hello," She coaxed the child."Hello!" Adelaide greeted with her childish voice.Anika smiled and turned to Esther."No. we took a break to rest f

In the following days, Esther continued to come to the Albrecht mansion. She would cook meals, bring flowers and show her bookish attitude.During meals with Leon, she would deliberately bring up books that Leon reads, which she found out on the internet. She searched hard for Leon's likes and hobbies.Although Leon doesn't talk much every time, she brings up a common topic, but seeing him acknowledge what she knows is a plus for her."Oh, we have the same tastes in books, Mr. Albrecht," Esther said in a gentle voice.She then looked kindly at Anika. And as of comfort, she smiled softly at her."Anika doesn't know anything about this, but it's fine. You'll find your likes someday," She said to her magnanimously.Anika only smiled, but the hand below the table softly pinched her skirt. Eventually, her grin turned to an embarrassed smile.Seeing the other's insecurity, Esther smiled more gently. It looks like her plan is going in the right direction.Even someone as stupid as Anika coul

It was a normal day.As usual, Esther is at the Albrecht mansion.When suddenly, she invited that they should have barbecue for their meal."Barbecue?" Anika asked curiously."It's grilled meat in skewers. It's delicious!" Esther convinced.Anika's eyes brightened."Oh, I think we ate something like that at the beach! It really was delicious!" Anika remembered they had eaten something quite like that. She immediately became excited.Esther smirked and hurriedly said."I don't know if you have things for barbecue here? I know how to grill!" She offered."I'll ask Steward Ben!" Anika hurriedly went to find the butler.Steward Ben heard Anika's request and readily took the things they needed from the storage. He also ordered some of the servants to help carry the things over.The ladies chose one of the gazebos in the garden, close to the south wing of the mansion.Seeing the people bring things over, Esther ordered them."I can handle the grilling here. You can leave after placing the t

Everything happened too fast. Anika was not in her right mind as she followed to the hospital.The image of the fire haunted her mind, and Esther's protective words for her only made her feel guilty.That's right. She doesn't know anything. She's so stupid. That's why she had caused this tragedy.It's her fault.When they arrived at the hospital, fortunately, Esther was not in danger. She just needed some rest and respiratory treatment for the suffocation she experienced.Anika insisted on staying in the hospital and waiting until Esther finished her IV infusion. The latter was resting as of the moment.She waited outside for a few hours as the doctor advised not to let any visitors come into the room first and let the patient rest.When suddenly, a middle-aged lady arrived, with a worried and overly distressed expression."Where's my niece? Is she okay?" The well-dressed lady asked in exclamation.This should be Esther's aunt.Anika stood up and stuttered to answer."She's, she's ins

"What are you doing to my niece!!"Amanda screeched emotionally as she hurriedly supported her niece with a bloody arm.The people with her also saw the scene and were stupefied."Are you crazy?!" She turned accusingly at Anika.Anika only stood there dumbfounded, staring at the bloody knife in her hand. She was still processing Esther's words, and now this.Her face paled as she looked at the people in the room, her lips trembling. It was Leon, Nanny Rose, Steward Ben, the assistants, all of them watched her holding a knife.A dark shadow shrouded her, as if she felt like the witch in the picture book, being ostracized for being evil."It's not Anika's fault, she doesn't know what she's doing.." Esther said weakly, still pleading for Anika. She held her bloody arm looking at the people in the room as if to ask justice for Anika.Like a reasonable person asking lenience for a mentally handicapped woman.Anika looked at Esther in askance. She could only stare at the girl as she lied in

"Take that woman away,"Leon's men immediately grabbed Esther and Amanda, and they could only struggle in the middle of their shock."Mr. Albrecht, what's the meaning of this?" Esther asked incredulously. She hissed when the men grabbing her did not bother to consider her wounded arm."What is this?! Hey, help us! Can't you see they're attacking us?!" Amanda asked for help from the security guards in panic.The securities were also dumbfounded and could only look at each other. They knew these people could not be messed with, and their small jobs couldn't afford to offend whoever important person this man was.Leon turned to the securities and said coldly."They are defaming my wife. I'll give them into the custody of the police, and my lawyer will follow,"Esther's heart sank when she heard this."What?! You can't do this! It's the woman you should catch! No!" She continued to struggle.Amanda also clamored while panicking, but they were subdued by Leon's men.They were then taken aw

“Mr. Albrecht, please have mercy on our daughter,” An honest-looking but haggard couple stood outside the gate, with their backs hunched, humbly begging for Leon’s lenience.It was Esther’s parents. They had hurriedly come after hearing what had happened. They traveled overnight, therefore appearing disheveled in front of Leon. But their perseverance was not weak. Although their backs were hunched, they were tenacious, as if they wouldn’t leave until they could save their daughter.Leon’s brows furrowed as he stared at the humble parents.The couple thought Leon thought of them as a nuisance, and they immediately became flustered. Although they were ignorant townsfolks, they knew that powerful people like this man could hold the laws in their hands. No matter how much they would try to defend their daughter, this man could turn the tables to his advantage. So, they could only come and beg for mercy.“Mister, it is this old couple’s fault. We didn’t educate our daughter properly. Plea
