“Miss Yard, you’re pregnant with triplets, and the fetuses are all healthy.”The doctor’s words were still echoing in Selena’s head as she held her waist with one hand and a 4D ultrasound report in the other. She was already seven months pregnant, and because there were triplets, she was bigger than other pregnant women. In fact, she was even bigger than those women who were about to give birth.They didn’t manage to obtain good pictures of the three babies with the previous scans, but she finally had the pictures she wanted this time. I’m gonna show them to Finneas! He’ll definitely be very happy to see them.After walking for a while, she grew tired and started panting, so she found a bench and sat down. Then, she stared at the examination report in her hands; the faces of the three babies were clearly visible.“Who do you look like? Like your dad, or like your mom?”Suddenly, a slender hand reached outand snatched the report away from her.When Selena looked up sharply,she saw a fam
Four years later at Dynasty Bar, loud music that constantly stimulated one’s eardrums and provoked every nerve in a person’s body could be heard.Suddenly, a line of men in black suits moved into the doorway. In the Bentley at the entrance sat a man with an expression so frosty that it seemed as if his face was carved out of ice. He was handsome like a Greek God and exuded a compelling aloofness. His face carried a trace of arrogance that suggested he was always looking upon all life forms beneath him.This was Pierre Fowler, the most impressive man in Digton City.“Mr. Fowler, the last location of the spy was inside this bar,” said Niall, his special assistant who was bending toward him outside the car.“Clear the place.” Pierre opened his thin lips slightly and spoke, his voice thick and magnetic.As the people came out from inside, they were herded into a big truck. Although they screamed and cursed, they didn’t dare to make any move because they knew they couldn’t afford to mess w
Everyone heard Selena’s shout. Pierre was the most stunned of them all, and he turned to look toward the source of the voice, only to see a girl swaying her way toward him. She had a youthful face with a full forehead, small cheeks that were a rosy shade, as well as long black hair that fell over her shoulders seductively and messily like a waterfall.The girl rushed over and grabbed Pierre’s collar, causing all the bodyguards at the scene to be dumbfounded. Who would have thought that such a girl would dare to grab Pierre’s collar? Did she have a death wish?When they were about to go over and pull her away, Pierre waved his hand.Then, Selena stared at him, the look in her eyes one of confusion. “Hmm? You don’t look like a bad old man at all!” He’s clearly a man who’s outrageously handsome!He was so handsome that women would fall over themselves for him. At the sight of such a hunk, Selena immediately gulped and put on a gorgeous smile.In response, Pierre raised his eyebrows and h
When Selena jerked the car door open, Jameson was seen munching on potato chips in the car, while Joaquin was frowning and sitting with his arms and legs crossed, looking like an adult.“Pretty lady, you’re back!” Jameson grinned. “Do you want to eat this? It’s super delicious! I’ve never eaten anything so delicious before! My brother said this is junk food, but even if it’s junk, it’s still delicious. Do you want to eat it? I purposely saved some for you.”Selena rolled her eyes. That’s my snack, okay? She had snacks placed in a compartment in the car, but at the moment, they had all become empty bags. However, since the boy still knew that he should save a little for her, and he looked so cute, she decided to forgive him.“Thank you.” Selena stroked Jameson’s little head. “But I didn’t meet the bad old man you mentioned last night.”Joaquin quickly said, “I guess he didn’t come then.”“Oh, in that case, where should I send you guys now?” Selena didn’t care too much. It was just a ba
Later, a line of people surrounded Villa No. 3 in Dragon Gardens. Then, Pierre could be seen getting out of the car, and his dark eyes flashed with a chilly light as he surveyed the villa.Last night, the spy’s GPS information was located in the bar, and the woman just so happened to be there and even took the initiative to appear before him. Now, his sons had disappeared with this woman, and it just so happened that this woman was also neighbors with him. This was all too much of a coincidence.Niall came forward and asked, “President Fowler, should we go in?”“Retreat.”“What?” Niall couldn’t believe his ears. It had been so hard for them to locate them and carry out the blockades, but now, they were to retreat?“Retreat,” Pierre repeated, his voice devoid of all emotion. He had never liked to explain anything to other people.Naturally, Niall understood Pierre’s character. Any decision Pierre made naturally had its reasons, so Niall had no choice but to get everyone to retreat agai
The door opened a crack and a small head poked out. "Where is our daddy?""He's downstairs, so don't worry. Since I'm here, he won't dare to bully you." Then, Selena glanced downstairs and asked, "Are you hungry? Go down and eat!"Jameson pushed his brother out first before he timidly followed along; he was really very hungry.The two little ones came downstairs together to the living room. When he caught the aroma from the pineapple rice on the dining table, Jameson immediately forgot that his scary daddy was still there. Then, he scampered to the chair and said, "Wow, this smells way too good! I'm gonna dig in now!"Selena hastily handed the spoon to Jameson, who picked it up and began to dig in. Compared to Jameson, Joaquin looked much calmer and ate the rice unhurriedly."Mmm, it's delicious. It's so delicious! I've never eaten such delicious rice before!" Jameson mumbled with his mouth full of food."Eat more if it's delicious." As she looked at Jameson eating so happily, Selena
"Let go of me!" Selena was in an extremely awkward position in Pierre's arms, for she was completely confined by him and unable to get up at all."You're the one who threw yourself at me. Why should I let go?""Hey, behave yourself! Your sons are upstairs! What kind of father are you? You're so immodest!" Selena suddenly grabbed the edge of the couch and rolled off Pierre's body. Then, she glared at him fiercely. "Pervert!"She did not dare to stay much longer and hurriedly went upstairs.As Pierre watched her scampering away, his lips were curled into a smile. That upset look of hers is quite adorable.When Selena got back to her room, she locked the door and got into bed, her heart still beating rapidly. To be honest, even if she was once in love with Finneas, her heart had never pounded so fast before. She touched her face and felt how hot it was at the moment. That man is indeed too handsome, well- built, and so manly. What a pity that he's a gigolo."Ugh, Selena, what are you thi
"K-Kneel?" Even Yulia felt that this was a bit too much. "Miss Yard, um… This is a bit too much, right? Why not let her compensate you for the clothes?""You think a lowly person like her can afford to pay for this?" Megan fiddled with her freshly manicured nails and sneered at Selena. "It's kind enough of me to let you just wipe it."Naturally, Yulia knew Megan's identity as the young mistress of the Yard Family. She was also soon to be part of the Lake Family, so Yulia could not afford to offend her. Furthermore, this was her first day of work, and she could not lose her job because of this matter. Besides, Miss Yard didn't ask me to kneel either, so whatever! "Hey, you should quickly wipe Miss Yard clean! If you offend her, you won't be able to get away with it!"Selena never thought that even after four years, Megan was still as conceited as ever. In fact, she had become even worse than before.In the meantime, Megan looked haughtily at Selena. She could guess how miserable Selena
Chapter 81“What a shameless lecher!” Selena quickly drew the curtains in a frustrated manner. When the time reached 11.50 p.m., she realized she only had ten more minutes to consider the offer until the time was up. Restless, she took a peek through a small gap between the curtains and saw Pierre still standing there.“Ah! Screw it!” Then, she began to search for a suitable attire to wear before setting out. Soon, she heard her phone’s notification alert once more and saw Pierre’s message. ‘Wear your red sleeping robe.’ Angered by the message, she angrily tossed her phone aside and cursed at the man. “D*mn you, you perverted voyeur!” I really wonder how many times he has been peeping on me already!Indeed, Selena had a sleeping robe in her closet that was red in color. Besides that, its appearance resembled that of a slip dress with glittery sequins all over its surface. In fact, ever since she broke up with Finneas, red had been her favorite color for almost everything, as she even

“No can do!” Selena turned Pierre down outright. After all, their first intimacy was an accident since she was drunk at that time. Therefore, she didn’t think that counted as her willingness to make love with him. I wouldn’t have gone ahead and shared an intimate moment with him had I been sober at that time.“Relax! Think about your company and your…” Pierre purposely paused for a second before going on to say, “Daughter.” In that instant, Selena’s eyes dilated in horror. “B*stard!”Selena was willing to give up her company if she had to since she had more than enough money to spend for the rest of her and her daughter’s life. However, she would never abandon her daughter for whatever reason it might be. Pierre is like the devil himself! How could he threaten me with my daughter?!Noticing Selena’s silence, Pierre knew she was scared deep down. “T-This… is a one-time thing, right?”“Of course.”"Will you leave me alone if I take you up on it? Promise me that you will never disturb my
Upon stepping out of the elevator, Selena had arrived at the top floor right outside the president’s office. “Miss Yard, President Fowler is waiting inside.” The employee left after walking her to the office’s entrance.Selena then took a deep breath and knocked on the door, entering the office when she heard Pierre’s deep voice. As soon as she stepped inside, the first thing that came into her view was the piled up documents on the table that Pierre had to go through. While the man’s absorption in work reminded her of herself back in those days, she was still rather surprised at the sight of his overwhelming workload.A moment later, Pierre looked up at Selena only when she sat right in front of him. “What do you want from me?” Selena directly asked the man the question with a poker face.Pierre responded with a glacial chuckle and continued to bury himself in work. “I made myself clear the last time, didn’t I? Beg me, and I’ll undo everything for you.”“You and I both know that we h
So, he wants me to beg him by denying me of all my chances! “What a b*stard!” This guy is an absolute jerk!For the next three days, Selena and her team actively searched from all their sources and contacted any company that they could work with, but strangely enough, all of them changed their minds not long after they agreed to collaborate. Even when they phoned to find out what happened, their calls were immediately declined. Thus, Selena was even more certain about her suspicion that Pierre was manipulating these companies from behind the scenes.Meanwhile, Pauline had personally made a trip to Empire Group, but she was turned away there and then. Despite her desperate effort to initiate a negotiation, she didn’t manage to meet up with anyone from the management, let alone Pierre himself. Her unsuccessful approach inevitably became a discouragement to everyone in her team, as they had never come across such an insurmountable setback. Because of that, the overall workplace morale ha
I’ll find the best few companies that we can work with. “Hello, Mr. Jacobs. May I ask… Oh, but I believe you still remember the deal that we discussed yesterday, right?” The moment Pauline picked up the call, she drew everyone’s attention, including Selena, who looked at her as well.“Sure, we’ll work together some other time.” Right after Pauline had just hung up the call, she heard her phone ringing again, so she had to pick up her phone again. “Hello, Miss Nolan. Regarding our deal yesterday—Oh… Okay, I understand.” After putting her phone away, Pauline appeared to be a little disheartened.“What’s wrong, Pauline?”“Well, we can talk about that after the meeting,” Pauline said with a gloomy look on her face.As soon as everyone was seated, Selena started off the meeting by complimenting her team, whereupon Linda proceeded to distribute the dossiers on each of the companies that they would soon be collaborating with.“Let’s discuss and select the companies that we think are suitable
In the meantime, Meredith was seen with an unhappy look on her face. Ever since her sister’s wedding, she had only filmed a movie and turned down all her jobs because she was too moody to accept any of them. Therefore, she had only spent the last few days loitering at home.“What should I do now, Mom?” Megan bitterly gazed at Jezebelle.“Your situation is still not as bad as you think. Look, you and Finneas are already married, which is something etched in stone. So, if he really wants a divorce, he’ll still likely have to think it through. Thus, your situation can afford to wait, but on the other hand, Meredith’s situation seems a little more pressing.”Jezebelle then shifted her gaze to Meredith. “What’s your plan?”Knowing both of her daughters, Jezebelle was aware of the differences between their characters and strengths. Although Megan never seemed to run out of ideas, she was an arrogant loudmouth most of the time. On the contrary, Meredith was more reserved and unfathomable, as
“President Fowler, these are the files for the meeting later.”Despite his assistant’s words, Pierre remained still without even casting an eye on those files. In fact, he would usually take a few minutes out of his time to skim through the papers before the meeting so that he roughly knew all the agendas that would be discussed later. Thus, Niall had no idea what was on Pierre’s mind as he stood aside and waited in silence.“Head over to Fowler Corporation and take back all our shares from Laya.”Pierre’s words came like a thunderbolt to Niall. In fact, the management had decided to redeem the company’s shares from Laya since clothing business was never the main focus of both Fowler Corporation and Empire Group, and neither was that area their forte.Despite Laya’s unsatisfactory performance in the past few years, Pierre had never once expressed his interest in that company. Even when it was mentioned earlier during the meeting at Fowler Corporation, he had only just assigned someone
It’s him again?! Why won’t this guy ever give up?! Irritated and annoyed, Selena gritted her teeth and exclaimed, “What does this guy want from me?!”Unaware of what was going on, Juniper asked, “What did you just say, Mommy?” “Nothing.” “Mom, why do your lips look so red? They seem to be swollen. Are you not feeling well?”After hearing Juniper, Selena subconsciously touched her lips. This is all thanks to that b*stard! Nonetheless, she didn’t want her daughter to know what happened earlier, so she had no choice but to lie to her. “Oh, that’s because I took some spicy fries when I was waiting for you.”Juniper pouted. “Hmph! You secretly ate the good stuff again!”“They’re not good stuff. They’re junks,” Selena replied to Juniper’s words while setting her eyes on ‘Venom’. Then, she was followed by Pierre until she entered her residential area.After that, she parked outside her house and impatiently got out of her car, stomping toward the man. As she was about to confront Pierre and
