Stefan entered the room and found Dorothy sitting on the bed, writing on a sheet of paper. Around her were several crumpled papers, and she looked troubled.

"Love, what are you doing?" he asked, coming to sit beside her.

"I'm trying to prepare a startup speech for the presentation, but I can't seem to come up with a good one," Dorothy pouted, tossing the last paper onto the floor.

Stefan sighed and sat closer.

"You don’t have to overwork yourself or prove to anyone that you deserve the title I gave you. Love, you know I don’t play with my business. I wasn’t stupid when I asked you to be my First Lady," Stefan told her.

Dorothy bit her lip. He was right—she worried too much about what people thought. Ever since Stefan announced her as First Lady, she had been receiving disgusted looks from women and criticism online.

"Thank you," she said, smiling in appreciation.

"Now, will you drop all this and at least eat something?" Stefan asked. Before Dorothy could respond, he added, "If you say

    At Everest Stock Exchange, while Tristan was in the boardroom, the door suddenly swung open and an angry Stefan barged in. Without giving anyone time to react to his presence, he stormed straight toward Tristan, yanked him from his chair, and punched him hard across the face.Before Tristan could recover from the blow, Stefan grabbed him by the collar and slammed him against the wall."Listen to me, you bastard," Stefan hissed in a low, threatening voice. "You can pull whatever the hell you want with me, but you’ll stay away from my wife.""What the hell are you talking about, you asshole?" Tristan growled, his lower lip already bleeding."You know damn well what you did, Tristan. And believe me when I say, you’ll want me quiet about this," Stefan snapped, seething with rage.The door burst open again as security rushed in, grabbing Stefan and pulling him off Tristan. Stefan shoved their hands off his body and pointed furiously at Tristan."You want war, you bloody fuck? I’ll give you

    She was awake, her gaze fixed on the ceiling. Stefan stood by the door, unsure of what to say or do."Are you going to come in?" Dorothy sighed.Stefan shook his head slightly. "I'm sorry," he apologized quietly, stepping in and moving closer to her.There was more silence before Stefan finally spoke. "Do you know?" he asked calmly.No response. Stefan chuckled bitterly."Why didn’t you say anything for so long?" he asked again.Dorothy swallowed hard, turning her face to the wall."You were having a good time with Edward and his sister, and I didn’t want to spoil anything for either of you," she replied."Biggest bullsht," Stefan disagreed. "No matter what, love—I would always choose you. No matter fcking what, love. F*ck!" he clenched his fists, turning away."Really?" Dorothy said coldly, shooting him a painful look. "Does 'I would always choose you' mean letting your ex-girlfriend slap and trash-talk me for something I didn’t do?" she asked angrily."Love..." Stefan sighed."I can

    Stefan was restless after the phone call. He immediately grabbed his jacket and car keys and rushed out of the house. Bianca saw him coming and smiled."Stefan, thank God you came out. Edward is finally awake," she said, not noticing the urgent look on his face. He strode right past her."Stefan, what's wrong?" Beatrice asked. She had seen him on the phone earlier, speaking in a soft tone—Beatrice figured it must've been Dorothy. He only ever spoke to her that way."Is Dorothy okay?" she called out, but Stefan was already gone.Bianca rolled her eyes at the mention of Dorothy. Of course, it was her. She never let anyone else have a moment. Just give her a second and she’ll make everything about herself again, Bianca thought bitterly.As soon as Stefan got to the car, he called Griffin. After one ring, Griffin picked up."Step out of the company. I’ll be there in a minute to pick you up," Stefan said and hung up, not waiting for a response from the confused Griffin.When he arrived, Gr

    Dorothy snatched the package from Bianca immediately. It wasn’t low-fat butter- the label had been swapped to make it seem so, but she could swear with her life that she hadn’t done it.“I can’t believe you, Dorothy. Why would you want to hurt a child?” Bianca asked, her voice and expression full of disbelief.“I didn’t do this,” Dorothy said, trying to defend herself, still confused about how all of this had even happened.“If you didn’t, then who did? Was it Stefan? Does he hate his son so much that he’d want to kill him? Or was it Beatrice? Or do you think it was me? I wasn’t even there!” Bianca screamed.“Calm down, Bianca. There has to be some kind of misunderstanding,” Stefan tried to soothe her. The distress on his face was clear, but deep down, he knew Dorothy wouldn’t do something so cruel to a child.“What misunderstanding, Stefan? She’s never liked that Edward and I are around. Maybe she decided to do something about it!” Bianca said bitterly, tears falling down her cheeks.

    Maxwell and Beatrice returned from the park, and he was surprised to find Edward in the living room."Maxwell, I've been waiting for you. Your aunty told me you lived here," Edward explained to him with full enthusiasm, it almost scared Maxwell."Why don't you show Edward your room and around the house while I bake some yummy cookies for you boys?" Dorothy offered with a smile."Yay! You're making cookies again!" Maxwell cheered, then turned to Edward. "You came at the right time. Aunty’s cookies are the best in the whole world.""I can't wait to try them," Edward grinned."Okay, let's go to my room. I want to show you my new toy!" Maxwell said, and Edward eagerly jumped up from the chair to follow him upstairs.Dorothy smiled and shook her head. Stefan had slyly escaped with the excuse of being "busy," leaving her with the kids. She was sure he was working upstairs—his body simply didn’t know how to rest unless it was occupied with something.She scooped a generous amount of butter i
