About an hour later, Erin drove Ryder to Alan's private hospital. This hospital was indeed the top choice for affluent people.Right after Erin parked her car, Ryder turned to her and instructed, "When we enter the ward later, speak as little as possible. If my dad asks you anything, just answer according to what I taught you, capisce?"Taking in his serious expression, Erin understood that Ryder attached great importance to getting the inheritance. Although she didn't know how much money was involved, that didn't really matter because all she had to do was help him secure the money. She could only enjoy true peace after repaying this debt of gratitude.Erin nodded affirmatively to show that she understood what he said. With that, Ryder got off the vehicle, and Erin followed him. While it wasn't right to lie to an elderly person suffering from cancer, Erin tried her best to convince herself that there was nothing wrong with Ryder doing this to secure his inheritance since he was the

Before they called it a day, Erin explained everything from A to Z about her pretending to be Ryder's fiancée at the hospital.Holding her in his arms, Chandler's heart finally felt assured. However, he raised an eyebrow and warned, "Next time, don't agree to such requests from other men! You have a husband now. If there's anything like this in the future, let me handle it."Erin nodded sleepily. "Understood, boss. Can I sleep now?""Yes, you can," Chandler answered with a bossy demeanor. Suddenly, he remembered something and asked, "Right, Alana said she wants to move back to the villa in a few days. You don't object to it, do you?"Erin had a foreboding feeling in her heart, but she thought she was overthinking things. She replied calmly, "Sure. If that's what she wants, I have no objections."Despite her words, her body turned to the other side so that she was no longer facing Chandler. Seeing this, Chandler pressed himself against her back and put an arm around her waist.He

Erin was completely caught off guard as she never expected Roman would forcefully attempt to kiss her. She quickly regained her senses and pushed him away with all her might. Her resistance helped him regain some sanity.He took a clumsy step backward.Feeling a bit anxious, Erin reached for the light switch near the door and hastily turned it on. As the bright light illuminated the room, Roman turned around, unable to face her—he knew what he'd just done. Such a bold move was only possible when under the undue influence of alcohol."Roman, it's me." Erin's voice was soft as she spoke, and she took off her mask.Roman, who had her back turned to her, knew he couldn't avoid facing her forever. Therefore, he slowly turned around."I know it's you, Erin." He'd kissed her without her consent, but he had no intention of apologizing for it. He waited many years to do that. If it weren't for the alcohol, he wouldn't have been able to kiss her, especially not when he was sober.His respo

Seeing that Chandler was kneeling, Roman felt that he should leave. The newlyweds needed their own space to sort things out."I'm going, Erin. You two should have a good talk."After Roman left, Chandler remained kneeling on the ground. His humble move completely extinguished the flames of anger in Erin's heart. She blamed herself for pushing Chandler to this point.Glancing at her surroundings quickly, Erin found that it was dimly lit and no one else was around. She said, "Get up now, Chandler."With a conflicted look in his eyes, Chandler said, "Don't mention getting a divorce so easily again in the future, Erin."Looking at the imposing 6'2" man kneeling on the ground, Erin nodded and agreed.With that, Chandler finally stood up. The moment he stood up straight, Erin went back to being a delicate and tender woman. Chandler put a hand across her shoulder and helped her back into the passenger seat gently. Soon, he got in and drove them away from the castle.…On their way b

Erin merely glanced at Ian impassively even though he went out of his way to make pleasant talk. However, Erin still stood up and shook his hand briefly before quickly withdrawing out of common courtesy. "Thank you for taking care of my parents while I was gone."Ian smiled gracefully and openly. "We're all family. There's no need to be so formal."Yvette sat in her seat grumpily and observed the interaction between her ex-husband with his first ex-wife with cold eyes. She was going crazy inside, but her excellent acting skills allowed her to stay composed as she remained silent. She'd divorced Ian by then. Cherry and Steven had come to terms with this fact. They didn't hold a grudge against Ian and would still greet him amicably if they chanced upon him."What a coincidence, Ian. You're here for dinner too?"Steven took the initiative to stand up and greet him. Although Ian had a disgraceful past history with Tracy, he'd just invested eighty million dollars in Steven's new factory
