It hurts. It hurt so much it was as if her body had been ripped apart. Her head throbbed a lot. A bout of agonizing pain coursed through Gillian's body, from hair to toe. It was as if Gillian had done something extremely strenuous the day before. The pain was overwhelming, so much so that Gillian broke into a sweat. She hissed in pain. Even her nails seemed to hurt. It. Ah. It hurts. It hurts a lot. Especially down there. Her skin also seemed to have been exceptionally bitten and nibbled. Gillian was extremely sure that she did nothing intense the day before except that she only went to the club to drink after experiencing Renata… Wait. Gillian's eyes flew wide open in horror. That's right. In the club… she didn't return to the mansion… It can't be… She and a stranger... Gillian suddenly froze upon feeling a muscular hand lingering on her waist casually, the owner of the hand stroking her waist. Due to the slow and sensual actions, it could be seen that the person
Willa gnashed her teeth together, her veins pulsing in her neck, her chest heaving and falling heavily and her face exceptionally reddened due to indignation. Willa’s fingers hovered over the upload button, but regardless of how much she tapped on the upload, it wouldn’t. Unable to take it anymore, in a fit of rage, Willa raised her phone in the air and slammed it on the floor. Willa walked toward the falling phone, raised her feet, and stomped on the phone repeatedly, her body trembling in indignation. Soon, cracks appeared on the phone’s screen, and in a few seconds, the new phone soon became the opposite. Nevertheless, it wasn’t enough to relieve her overwhelming anger. It wasn’t! Willa suddenly paused and walked toward her skincare section. She extended her hand and fiercely swept everything onto the floor, causing a crashing sound to resound in the room. Willa stomped her feet on the floor in indignation. Gillian, that bitch. Gillian, that bitch. How can her
There’s no yelling, imploring, or argument Gillain raised to change that bastard’s mind; it was all for naught. The bastard was indifferent and decisive to the end! Norviel even went as far as asking Gillian if she was indebted to Augustus because of his care for her mother. To prove his sincerity and show his care, Norviel promised to sponsor her mom's treatment, fly her mom to the best hospital in the world so her mom would wake from her coma quickly, help Gillian’s career, and pay the Arison family in folds. It could be said that the cynical bastard had certainly known all her weaknesses and tried to utilize them for himself. Yet, Gillian’s feelings for Augustus were never about the debt. Her heart already fell in love before she could realize it! Upon seeing that it was past 5:00 pm, Gillian’s heart skipped a beat, and she snapped out of her thoughts. She left the Albrecht family the night before without seeing Augustus’ state, she has to go check on him! Gillian wil
Augustus' hand flew to his cheeks, his eyes widened, and his lips parted in shock. “Gi. Gillian. Wife.” His eyes fell on her, completely stunned and confused by what had just happened. Gillian’s eyes squinted, and she sneered, her expression turning cold. Hilarious. So hilarious. The world seems to have gone crazy. She must have gone crazy! How could she not realize it all this while? It has always been obvious. Gillian’s cold eyes eyed Augustus, her expression very gloomy. “Are you ready to come clean, young master Augustus?” She questioned, her voice and expression frigid. Augustus’ brows knitted as if trying to process Gillian’s words, but in the next second, his eyes pooled with tears and his expression became helpless. He cautiously stretched out his hands toward Gillian… Gillian gnashed her teeth together, and she extended her hand to grab Augustus by the collar, her raging eyes directly meeting with Augustus's. Gillain smacked her lips together and glared at August
. ‘Ah. It hurts. Really hurts a lot.’ Gillian moaned painfully and slowly opened her eyes, the thought of how the day before ended pervading her mind. In the next second, Gillain gnashed her teeth together. She felt that she had mistaken a wolf for a sheep. How is Augustus an innocent and pure retard? He’s definitely a sheep in wolf's clothing! Gillian couldn’t just understand how the aloof and ruthless cold Augustus was able to perfect the retard role. At this point, even the film emperor award isn’t worthy of his acting. Recalling how pure Augustus always looked and how his teary eyes always moved and deceived her, after seeing his lustful expression from the day before, Gillian really felt like strangling this lustful man. He’s too scheming and tricky! Gillian wanted to scream and shake him while asking where was her pure Augustus. Can he return him to her already? Under someone’s monstrous stamina, Gillian could only scream until she fainted late in the night… The
Gillian’s face flushed red so much that it was as if squeezing it would drip blood, her whole person soft and her blushing face buried in Augustus’s ripped chest. Gillian’s eyes clouded with tears upon recalling all that happened earlier. Although she tried to kick Augustus out of the bathroom, this stubborn person refused to budge a bit and persistently bathed her. Although Augustus was calm this time and didn’t press her down, his hands kept running around her body, and he kept teasing her so much that her face couldn’t help flushing due to his actions. Augustus’s lips curved up in satisfaction, and his eyes on the blushing woman turned gentle. He carefully placed Gillian on the bed, placed a kiss on her forehead, and carefully tucked her into the blanket. “I’ll be back.” He conveyed, caressed her hair endearingly, and straightened his back. Although Augustus didn’t say more than that, Gillian understood that Augustus planned to return to his bedroom and change into a pr
Augustus’s hand hovered over the end call button and he ruthlessly cut off the call. His eyes flickered with a ruthless glint and an indecipherable glint flickered past his eyes. But in the next minute, he straightened his back and his eyes regained their calm. Augustus threw his phone into his pocket and strode out of the room at a long and fast pace. “Augustus.” Upon seeing Augustus step out of his room, Zenaida smiled sweetly and began to approach Augustus while swaying her hips beautifully, her voice soft and demure. Her eyes flashed, yet she suppressed the glints and instead extended her hand to take ahold of Augustus's hand. The cold and frigid, piercing eyes filled with killing intent that instantly landed on Zenaida made her freeze with fear. Zenaida unconsciously gulped and took a step back. Scary. Augustus is truly scary. If she hadn't known better, she would definitely think that he had already gotten better. However, Augustus had always been aloof and ruthle
At the mention of Willa’s name, Gillian’s expression changed. Gillian already knew that Willa couldn’t stay still, and within a few days, Willa would come to find her. However, Gillian didn’t expect that Willa would be so brazen as to come to the Albrecht family to look for Gillian. However, what was she thinking? Hasn’t Willa always been brazen? If Willa wasn’t brazen, would she happily snatch her younger sister's man and flaunt it to the world? Will she scheme so shamelessly and do everything to ruin Gillian’s reputation even when Gillian never offended or did anything to Willa in the first place? After all these years, Gillian already knows Willa well. Gillian knew that Willa couldn’t simply come out to visit Gillian for no or greeting reason. If Gillian was correct, Willa came here not because of Gillian but because of the Albrecht family. Willa has always believed that the Albrecht family cared about Gillian a lot, so she must have come here intending to spoil Gill
“What nonsense is that Willa girl doing around your partnership? You have to hurry up and break your engagement with that girl! It's enough that that wench dragged our poor family along with her…”Luke could only patiently listen until Grandfather Arnoult was done talking. “Yes, Grandpa,” he respectfully responded.Grandpa Arnoult had only given Luke a few weeks to change the situation.Who knew that Luke had narrowly escaped his bad fate when Willa came to mess things up with trouble again and again? Enough is enough!That greedy bitch never cared about him anyway. Also, Luke was already done using Willa, so there was no need to have Willa around. Luke really had to break the engagement!Luke immediately took out his phone to dial Willa's number, but before he could, his phone began to buzz incessantly…Upon taking a look, Luke discovered that an anonymous user had posted news online.This wasn't just ordinary news, because this news was related to Willa.Willa had claimed to faint a
While the heat online was growing hotter due to the university failing to come out to give their speech about the situation, Willa was not only going through Dale’s constant emotional torture but also anxiety due to Luke's interaction with that woman.It was enough that Luke didn’t visit Willa last night to talk about it, but surprisingly, Luke didn’t even bother to call Willa to talk about it or apologize for throwing her out!It was clear that Luke was the one in the wrong, yet he didn't care. Luke was the one who was seeing a woman despite the fact that they were engaged.As if that wasn’t enough, when Willa caught Luke and the woman together, Luke was very unremorseful and didn't apologize. Instead, he threw her out. How can Willa be happy?Willa gnashed her teeth and held her phone tight. It must be that woman. Yes. That woman.That woman must have tried to show off to Luke and speak bad things about Willa.Also, that woman had purposely stayed silent and feigned confusion after
“Boss, we have moved Miss Irie to another room,” Axel bowed to Augustus and politely reported.“Hm.” Augustus indifferently responded and strode into the ward at a fast yet elegant pace.As if already expecting Augustus to come, Gillian’s eyes were eagerly fixated on the door. Upon seeing Augustus open it, Gillian immediately tried to sit up.Augustus' heart skipped a beat at her dangerous action, and he hurried toward the woman. “Careful.” Augustus quickly helped her lie back on the bed.Gillian immediately held Augustus, her lips quivering and her eyes teary. She burst into tears. All this while she had held it in, but she couldn’t anymore. “Augustus, I am not bad luck, am I?”Although Gillian had tried to act as if she was unaffected, in fact, that was a lie. How could she not be affected?Upon hearing this, Augustus’s eyes turned cold, and killing intent flickered past his gaze. His voice laced with fury and danger, “Who said that?”Gillian's lips trembled, and she sniffed pitiful
“Can I get my phone?” As soon as Gillian woke up, she turned to Irie and asked.Gillian hadn't heard from Augustus since she woke, and that made her extra worried.Although Gillian had felt Augustus’s presence when she was in a coma, that wasn’t enough to calm her down.Gillian knew that the person who would be affected the most by her accident was Augustus, and it made her exceptionally worried.Upon hearing this, Irie paused in her tracks and hurried toward Gillian. She gently patted Gillian’s hair and shook her head in refusal.“You’re still in recovery, so I have to prevent phone exposure for now.”Gillian’s brows knitted, but in the next second, she bit her lower lip and blinked her eyes innocently.“Then you can pick up my phone and put Augustus on the line,” she suggested.Upon hearing this, Irie’s brows knitted in confusion. Wasn’t Augustus just a retard? Not to mention that he had the Albrecht family watching over him—why was Gillian this worried? Nothing will happen, will it
“I have to visit Gillian at the hospital. Calista, hurry up and pack up," Renata conveyed. Her voice was so filled with anxiety that if one didn't know better, one would believe that Renata and Gillian had a very good relationship.“Yes, Mom,” Calista nodded her head and picked up a woolen white scarf, which she wrapped around her neck.Calista picked up her phone and bag and followed Renata out.Calista suddenly paused in her tracks and instructed Butler Leo, "Butler Leo, we will be back soon, so do not shut the door.""Ah, yes, Miss," Butler Leo responded with a bow and straightened his back.Immediately, Calista and Renata got into the car.Soon, the car drove out of the compound.In an inconspicuous part of the mansion, a team of six assassins suddenly appeared without making a sound or drawing attention.They were in black outfits, and their faces were covered in masks, effortlessly blending into the background.They expertly held their silenced weapons and fluidly moved around t
“Gillian.” Roger Arison stepped into the ward and perfunctorily made his way toward the table where the flowers and gifts were placed. He placed the flowers and basket of gifts he had carried along on the table, no traces of concern for Gillian in his eyes.If it wasn’t that not coming to visit Gillian would spark a reaction, he’d definitely not have come to see this cocky wench who ruined his years of hard work. Hmph.But thinking about it, if Gillian hadn’t had an accident, would Willa be capable of using pity to win netizens' hearts and increase the stock price? No.And it was all because of this that Roger had visited Gillian.By showing affection, hopefully, he’d be able to win netizens' hearts and also increase the stock price.As long as there’s an increment, Roger's company situation will turn around, and he’ll definitely be able to win investors again and find partnerships.Upon seeing Irie, who was currently going through her phone while grinning from ear to ear and leisurel
A thin and pretty nurse gently pushed her medical cart toward Gillian's ward. Upon seeing the Albrecht guard, her eyes sparkled with sweetness, no sign of fear or nervousness in them. She gently reported, “It's time for Miss Gillian's treatment.” The Albrecht guard watching over Gillian’s ward immediately eyed the nurse from head to toe, unfazed by her sweet nature. Upon seeing the guard's glance, the nurse suddenly recalled something. She blinked her eyes innocently, smiled sweetly, and explained, “Doctor Ren had an emergency case to attend to, so he sent me to check up on and treat Miss Gillian in his place.” Upon seeing the guard staring at her quietly, her stomach flipped from petrification, yet she tried to appear calm. The nurse tightened her hold on her cart and hurriedly spoke up, “Miss Gillian's issue is urgent. The more we delay, the higher the risk…” “Where's your card?” The Albrecht guard suddenly retracted his gaze and interrupted in a gruff voice, completely unf
The incessant buzzing of Luke's phone made his face wrinkle, and he let out a groan.His hand drowsily reached out for his phone, and he picked it up. He sighed and reluctantly opened his eyes before unlocking his phone to go through it.Soon, Luke realized that he was being tagged on social media.Since Luke and Gillian had once had a relationship in the past, of course, the netizens weren't willing to let Luke go, so they had tagged him, wanting to see his response.Soon, the drowsy expression on Luke’s face disappeared, and he abruptly sat up due to shock. “Gillian had an accident last night?” he pronounced, talking to no one.Immediately, Luke pushed off the blanket from his body and abruptly stood up, revealing his toned and naked body.Upon hearing Luke's words, Ivy's eyes flew wide, and her expression immediately became twisted.She abruptly sat up, causing the blanket on her body to fall, revealing the bite marks left by Luke the previous night.Her hands immediately stretched
A certain news and live broadcast suddenly took over the whole internet by storm that early morning, breaking the internet and shocking netizens.Willa had gone to a temple early at dawn just to pray for Gillian’s recovery. How could the netizens not be shocked?As if that wasn’t enough, Willa even went to donate things to orphans and the needy, as if hoping that such donations would soften heaven’s heart and help give Gillian a speedy recovery.All the media channels that broadcasted this live instantly had a surge of views and endless gifts and comments from fans.At that moment, the netizens couldn’t help being exceptionally touched.They felt that even though Willa had treated Gillian badly in the past, she deserved to be forgiven.After all, who hasn’t made a mistake at some point?The netizens even mentioned that a sweet family couldn’t go without having enmity at some point—otherwise, how would the bond be sweet?Some netizens even commented that they had done worse to their fa
