“So it’s you. We just hired you and you’re already this bold? You don’t know how to treat and respect customers, yet you dare insult Miss Molly. Do you have a death wish?”

The manager’s voice thundered through the hallway.

“Oh my…”

It really was the manager.

The server felt the heat of the slap he had just given her. Her cheek burned as reality hit her hard. I get it now, she thought bitterly. He’s only concerned about losing customers.

No. She couldn’t let this go. She had to explain.

    “Happy? Why should I be happy? Now I see… you planned this, didn’t you?”Mr Williams’ voice trembled with rage as he rose from the sofa. “I know you. You did this. In this family, there is no space for another woman. Especially not some homewrecker you want Henry to take responsibility for. It’s one of our family rules. No other woman. Do you understand?”Mrs Williams let out a cold laugh.“I planned it? Nonsense. Was I the one who forced your son into that lady’s bed? Was I the one who ordered them to sleep together?” She folded her arms. “And why am I just hearing about this so-called rule? I didn’t arrange anything. Lord knows whether you believe me or not. Even God doesn’t support Fulvia being Henry’s wife.”“Enough!” Mr Williams’ chest rose sharply. “I will say this again. It is impossible. That lady cannot be Henry’s wife. Not while I’m alive. Henry cannot divorce Fulvia. Not…”“Then I’m afraid,” Mrs Williams cut in smoothly, adjusting her robe, “Henry will simply have two wives

  • Rejected by him, desired by all    A Kiss to Silence Doubt

    “I gave it to you. Keep it. I don’t even know if it’s valuable or not, wifey. I just know it’s the first gift I’ve ever given you, and it suits you. So keep it on.”Henry’s fingers brushed against Fulvia’s neck as he gently clasped the necklace back in place. His touch lingered a second longer than necessary.“I know, young master, and I truly appreciate it, but…”Fulvia lifted her hand to remove it again, her fingers searching for the clasp…But Henry suddenly leaned in.Her breath caught.His lips pressed softly against hers, silencing the rest of her words.“I said it’s for you,” he murmured against her lips. “When a gift is given, it shouldn’t be taken back. And stop being so formal. Don’t call me young master. Call me husband. Or Henry.”Fulvia froze.Did he just… kiss me?Her fingers slowly tightened around the fabric of her dress. She could still feel the warmth of his lips on hers, the faint scent of his cologne, the way his breath had fanned across her face.No… maybe I imagi

    I must have taken the wrong medicine. How could I have ever believed Henry loved me? Many people wanted my father’s help to grow their businesses. Did Henry marry me just to gain my father’s support? No. That’s impossible. If that were true, my father would have found out and he wouldn’t have let me marry him.Fulvia’s thoughts were heavy and bitter.I entered his room without permission and even touched his things. His collaboration with those business partners was ruined—so it was normal for him to be angry.Fulvia’s heart sank, but her mind kept racing.*****Two Fulvias, one mindFulvia 1 spoke first, sharp and unforgiving.“Henry doesn’t act like someone who loves you. In fact, I think he regrets marrying you. Think about it—why didn’t he take you to his father’s birthday banquet? He didn’t even invite you. Don’t overthink it. He sees you as an embarrassment. So how is that love? No matter what you do, he is not supposed to raise his hand to you, but he does. You are legally his

She had to explain.“Manager, please let me explain. It’s not what you think. These people are lowlife. They’re broke—poor, even. They can’t afford a room, let alone VIP food, yet they ordered it and acted all high and mighty. Now they’re causing trouble because they can’t pay.”Smack!The manager slapped her again.“I let you finish so I’d know exactly how hard my slap should land,” he snapped. “Were you sent here to ruin our business or tarnish this hotel’s name? Broke? Poor?”He laughed coldly.“Do you even know who thi

    “Is he the one out of his mind, or is it you? Are you sure you heard the room number correctly?” Jasmine asked.“Yes, I did,” the staff replied.“Ha, ha, ha… this is funny. Jasmine, stop asking questions and let the server go. Besides, it’s not our business,” the second receptionist said.“That’s true. Why am I even disturbing her? It’s her job, not mine. You can go now. Don’t let me affect your work,” Jasmine said softly to the server.A few minutes later.Knock. Knock.“Your food is here, sir,” the server announced.“Come in. What took you so long? What’s wrong with this hotel service today? It’s usually fast. God knows what’s wrong with them this time,” Bobby complained.“I’m sorry, sir and madam. It’s my fault for bringing the food late. We wanted the food to suit your taste, so we took our time preparing it,” the server said politely.Her eyes lingered on Bobby for a moment.Wait a minute… judging from how this man looks and what he’s wearing, he’s exactly the type the receptioni

    “Yes, he did. He told me he has malaria. If the doctor hadn’t spoken while I was calling Dad, he was planning to keep it from me,” Fulvia said softly.“Oh... it’s just malaria? Then why is sir coughing out blood? Oh... maybe it’s just a dry cough,” Emily thought quietly.“Why did you ask, Emily? Is it more than malaria? Is Dad hiding something?” Fulvia asked, concern lacing her voice.“No, young mistress. Sir didn’t tell us what was wrong. I asked the doctor, but he said he can’t disclose patient information. I was worried, that’s why I asked if Sir told you,” Emily replied carefully.“Fulvia, you see I’m okay now, right?” Mr Kingsley asked, his voice steady but faintly weak.“Yes, Dad. But promise me you won’t keep anything from me again,” Fulvia said gently.“Alright, Fulvia... Henry, I want to see you in private,” Mr Kingsley said, his tone serious.“Dad, you’re just getting better. You and Henry can stay; we’ll excuse you,” Fulvia said softly, her hand brushing against his arm.“O
