LOGIN“Didn’t you have your own man?” Scarlett continued sharply. “Or did it finally dawn on you that Adrian is better?” she said hatefully as the face of Lucien flashed on her mind. “Do you think you can steal Adrian from Scarlett?” June commented sharply. “Better know your place.” She added and her words got Elowen attention. Elowen calmly placed her phone back into her bag. She looked at them quietly and then she chuckled. “Steal?” she repeated softly and sighed tiredly like it was a joke. “Why should I steal what I already gave out?” She asked with her brow raised Confusion flashed across their faces not understanding Elowen's words. “Scarlett wanted Adrian so badly,” Elowen continued calmly. “ I gave him to her and I'm too generous to take him back from her” She added, tilting her head slightly. ......... Elowen Whitemere was never meant to exist in the Whitemere family—let alone defy it. Born illegitimate, she was treated as a stain on noble blood, forced to endure silence, cruelty, and neglect. She accepted it all… until an accident stole the use of her legs and trapped her in a wheelchair. That was when love turned its back on her. Adrian Jones, the man who swore forever, abandoned her for her sister—Scarlett Whitemere—coldly declaring that he needed a woman who could walk. Shattered and discarded, Elowen disappeared. Then she met Lucien Calderwood. A man cloaked in calm and danger. A detective by title, a ruthless business tycoon by truth. Untouchable. Unforgiving. Powerful enough to make empires tremble. The moment he steps into Elowen’s world, the rules change. The Whitemere family soon realizes they didn’t just lose control of Elowen— they awakened a force that will expose their secrets, crush their pride, and rewrite their fate.

Then she picked up the flower, brought it close, and sniffed it.A soft hum escaped her lips at the pleasant scent.She slowly placed it back on the table and opened the snack package.A small smile unknowingly curved on her face on seeing that It was her favorite—yogurt parfait and a burger. She stood there, staring at them, when her assistant walked in.“I’m sorry, ma’am. I will remove them now,” her assistant said quickly, nervously stepping forward to take the flower and snacks to throw th
“How could you think of living peacefully without me, Dad?”The voice came again as the young man walked closer, a gentle smirk on his face. But his eyes were fixed on Felix.“Jeremy… I told you to wait for me in the car,” Henrietta said weakly as she looked at him.She had been staying at Jeremy’s apartment these past few days, and he was the one who drove her to the mansion. She had told him to remain in the car.“You did,” Jeremy replied calmly, “but I also have something to say to him.”His gaze shifted from Felix to Scarlett, and his smirk widened when he saw her in a wheelchair.There was satisfaction in his eyes.Scarlett noticed it immediately.“What are you staring at?” she snapped angrily without thinking.She already felt ashamed of being in a wheelchair, and now he dared to mock her.“Who the hell are you? Get out of here!” she ordered.Jeremy raised a brow.“What position do you have in this family to send me out?” he asked calmly. “You are just an illegitimate child, so
“Shut up! You didn’t mention to me that you had a girlfriend back then!” Grandfather’s voice trembled with rage. “And when Henrietta rejected the marriage proposal, I let you be. I didn’t continue forcing you,” he added, hitting his walking stick hard against the ground.His body trembled.He could never have imagined that his own son would exchange the two children.And now his excuse was that he had been forced into the marriage.Grandfather remembered clearly.Felix had never told him about Beatrice.He had only refused the marriage at first, but because the marriage would bring great profit to the family, Grandfather had pressured him.However, when Henrietta herself strongly rejected the marriage, he had let Felix be.But then, one day, Felix came to him and said he would do everything to make Henrietta marry him.Grandfather had thought his son had fallen for her.But now…It was clear that was not the case.“And that made it worse. How could she reject me?” Felix suddenly shout
“W… what are you talking about?” Felix asked, breaking the silence.Henrietta smiled briefly at his response, as if he truly didn’t know what she was talking about. Then the smile disappeared.She raised her hand and landed a hard slap across his face.Slap.The sound echoed through the room, shocking everyone.Their eyes widened as they stared at Henrietta, completely speechless.“You dare to ask me that?” Henrietta said coldly, her chest rising and falling with anger. On her way here, she had thought she would stay calm, but seeing Felix’s face and him acting ignorant made her lose control.“You slapped me…” Felix muttered in disbelief.“It is nothing,” Henrietta replied sharply, “because I will make sure you pay for what you have done.”She raised her hand again and slapped him a second time.Slap.“You…” Felix whispered, stunned, as he placed his hand on his cheek.In all their years of marriage, he had never seen Henrietta hit anyone—let alone him.“What is going on? How could yo
