That night, their room was dim, lit only by the small bedside lamp. The atmosphere was quiet, yet Liora could not close her eyes. She lay on her side, staring at the ceiling, her face pale even though her body was exhausted.

Inside her head, those disgusting images kept replaying. The video clips she had once seen—her own body recorded, treated without respect by the man she once called her husband.

Liora shut her eyes, but the visions became even clearer. It felt as if she were back on those nights when Noah forced her, deceived her with sweet words, then secretly recorded everything. Her heart churned, her body felt filthy. Suddenly, she sobbed quietly. She covered her face with her hands, her shoulders trembling.

Xavier, lying beside her, immediately woke up.

“Liora?”

Liora quickly shook her head, trying to hold back her tears. “It’s nothing, I just had a nightmare.”

Xavier sat up and switched on the lamp. His face was serious, his eyes studying his wife closely.

“You’re not okay.

    Liora and Isabelle sat facing each other near the window, their conversation flowing easily. The stack of romance novels Isabelle had brought earlier lay neatly on the small table, while their soft laughter occasionally filled the room. For the first time, they truly looked like close sisters-in-law—no distance, no barbed remarks.When the bedroom door creaked open, both turned at the same time. Xavier appeared in the doorway, wearing a white shirt with rolled-up sleeves and a slightly tired expression after a long day at work.His gaze immediately fell on the two women he cherished: his wife and his sister. Something was different this time—they sat close, smiling, without arguments.Xavier paused for a moment, simply observing.“Xavier, you’re home,” Liora said.Isabelle also gave a small, slightly awkward smile before standing.“What were you talking about?” he asked flatly, though the curiosity in his voice was clear.Liora smiled and pointed at the novels on the table. “Romance n

    “How do you know?”Xavier remained standing tall, arms crossed. His face was expressionless, but his eyes carried something far deeper.“I remember Damien had a friend, a little girl who was brave. A girl who used to throw tantrums whenever her shoes got dirty while playing in the park. A girl who once slapped a mischievous boy just because he stole her cotton candy. You.”“Even I had almost forgotten those days,” said Liora.“I once saw you, but I never paid attention. Back then, I was too busy with my family’s matters. Too busy proving myself,” said Xavier.“So all this time, you knew we’d met as children?”Xavier nodded slowly. “Yes. I never mentioned it because I didn’t want to bring up things that felt distant and nearly irrelevant to me. But today, when Damien tried to approach you with that memory, I realized something. He wants to claim a piece of your childhood. A piece that no longer has any relevance now.”“You sound jealous.”“Not sound— I am,” Xavier replied firmly, his e

    In the family room, Xavier was reviewing several files he had brought home from the office. Liora sat on the sofa, enjoying a cup of warm tea while occasionally caressing her growing belly.The calm atmosphere was suddenly disrupted by a knock on the large door. Moments later, Damien entered with his usual flair—casual, confident smile, always carrying an energy that seemed to shift the room. He wore sporty casual attire: a white polo shirt, beige trousers, and golf gloves hanging from his waist.“Xavier!” Damien called out cheerfully, as if the house were his own. “The weather’s perfect. Come play golf with me. You’ve been buried in meetings and documents for too long. You need fresh air.”Xavier lifted his face briefly, then returned to his papers. “I don’t have time for games.”Damien came closer, patting his cousin’s shoulder in a mock-friendly way.“Come on, cousin. You won’t die from taking one morning off work. Besides, golf isn’t just sport—it’s strategy. Many big business dea

    That night, the sky outside the bedroom window was dark. Liora lay on her side on the large bed, eyes wide open, staring at the ceiling. Her growing belly made sleeping positions uncomfortable, and on top of that, her legs ached as if pricked by fine needles. She had changed positions several times, but none felt right.With a frustrated sigh, she slowly sat on the edge of the bed. She rubbed her calves, which felt stiff, hoping a little massage might help. But the more she rubbed, the more the stabbing pain grew.She glanced to the side. Xavier lay with a calm face, his breathing steady. For a moment Liora hesitated to wake him. She knew how busy her husband had been lately—days of meetings, overseeing the construction of the new building, and dealing with legal problems that never seemed to end.But the ache kept getting worse. Liora bit her lip, then finally touched Xavier’s arm lightly.“Xavier,” she whispered.He stirred for a moment, then his brows furrowed and his eyes opened s

    Xavier sat in his black leather chair, a financial report file open on the desk. But his eyes weren’t really looking at the numbers. The door creaked softly. Max entered with a cautious expression.“I think you need to know something.”Xavier closed the file, fixing him with a sharp look. “What is it?”“Just now, a guard at the mansion accidentally overheard a conversation between Madam Amanda and Miss Isabelle. They didn’t realize someone else was near the family room corridor.”Xavier’s eyebrow lifted. “And?”“Madam Amanda scolded Miss Isabelle for visiting Madam Liora. Amanda forbade her from getting close to Madam, but Miss Isabelle defended Madam Liora.”“Defended her?” Xavier asked.“Yes, sir. She said Liora is not an outsider. She is your lawful wife, and moreover, pregnant. Miss Isabelle refused to keep blaming Liora for the old scandal. She even compared our family’s attitude to the Granthams, saying we shouldn’t just protect our image while closing our eyes to the truth.”Xa

    Liora sat in the living room, wearing a loose dress. Her growing belly made her movements slower, but her face looked brighter, better than it had a few weeks ago.A servant suddenly entered, bowing politely.“Madam, there’s a guest who wishes to see you.”Liora frowned. “Who?”The servant hesitated for a moment before answering, “Miss Isabelle Wrenford.”Liora froze. She could hardly believe what she had just heard. Isabelle?“Bring her in,” Liora said.The door opened. Isabelle stepped in, wearing a simple yet elegant dress, her long black hair neatly flowing down. In her hands, she carried a basket of fresh fruit wrapped with a golden ribbon.“Isabelle?”Isabelle gave her a brief glance, then walked closer. “These are just fruits. Don’t think too much of it. I simply don’t want to be considered rude by letting my sister-in-law carry twins without visiting.”“Thank you. That means a lot to me,” Liora replied.She rose slowly, helped by a servant, then received the fruit basket with
