Chapter 61 What's There to be Afraid of
Yaacob's tone sent chills down Nancy's spine. She instinctively inched backward and shook her head. "No… No!""Then why are you getting away from me?""I… I'm not!""Really?""Y-Yes!" Nancy cleared her throat and feigned calmness.The next moment, Yaacob turned around and fished out a knife from the nightstand drawer."Hey, what are you doing?" Nancy was stunned by this. She retreated until her body was on the edge of the bed, but Yaacob advanced toward her.The blade brushed against her thigh, but the next moment, Yaacob spun it toward him as he reached out to grab an apple from her side of the nightstand. "Apple?"Nancy's heart finally calmed down when she saw him pick up a bright red, juicy-looking apple from the fruit bowl. "No thanks. I don't have an appetite."Yaacob paused, then handed her the knife instead. "Well, put this on your nightstand. There's an old wives tale that says you'll stop having nightmares if you keep a knife by your head!""Um… I don't need that, ei

Chapter 62 Is He Crazy?
"Nancy, have you heard of someone named Randall Smith?" "No, I've never heard of him before." Nancy shook her head. "Who is he?" "He's the head of a very elite underground organization abroad. In a way, he's been tiptoeing on the edge of legality. This man is extremely powerful and has very strong connections all over the world, but all he does is dirty work." "Hey, weren't you going to tell me about Yaacob?" Nancy interjected. "Why are you telling me this?" "I'm getting to it. My point is, Yaacob is close to Randall Smith, and the two of them even proclaim to be best friends. Some of my friends have seen Yaacob frequenting the casinos in Las Vegas that belong to Randall Smith. Combined with the fact that he somehow managed to acquire an immense amount of funds soon after returning to Athenapolis, I'm sure you can understand what I'm getting at." Nancy's heart lurched when she heard this. "Hey, speaking of this, there's something I want to ask you. Do you know if the properti

Chapter 63 I Was Scared You'd Hit Me
"Hey!" Nancy was utterly stunned by this turn of events. "What are you doing?" Yaacob did not reply and instead, grabbed her arm and tossed her right into his car. His expression was so dark that Nancy did not even dare to continue fighting back. She watched in silence as he sped toward Amethyst Coast, his expression the coldest she had ever seen. A storm was coming. She could feel it. The moment they got home, Yaacob dragged her into the study and locked the door. "What… What are you doing?" Nancy asked, staring at him in horror. "I'm giving you one chance to explain why you were seeing him behind my back," Yaacob said coldly. He sat down in his leather chair, placing his legs up on the tabletop, staring at her like the grim reaper. Nancy wrung her hands in terror. She knew that she had to pick her words very carefully. Her life was at stake here. "Would you believe me if I said it was just a coincidence?" "Do I look like an idiot to you?" he glared at her. "Alri

Chapter 64 She Might Hit Someone
Spencer was wearing a white tuxedo that suited him perfectly. His chiseled features looked extra handsome in the limelight. It was as though he had stepped right out of a fairytale. Next to him, Teresa was wearing that same shimmering dress with the fishtail hem. The gemstone pattern was inspired by waves, and it glittered underneath the spotlight like waves crashing on the beachfront. Not only that, but Spencer's tie had been specially picked out to match the gemstones on Teresa's dress. It was clear they had planned that on purpose. It would no doubt be a stunning sight if it were not for Nancy standing right next to them in horror. Teresa snaked her arm around Spencer's and was about to walk into the hotel when she also caught sight of Nancy. "Hi, Nancy…" Her gaze landed on Nancy's dress, and her entire body stiffened. They were wearing the exact same dress! This was probably the most awkward situation they had ever been in. It was one thing to accidentally wear the sa

Chapter 65 Are You Going to Defend My Honor
Nancy tried to use two napkins to clean the wine stain on her dress but failed. She crumpled the napkins in frustration and was about to toss them into the nearest trash can when she suddenly changed trajectory and hurled them toward Serena instead. Serena instinctively stepped backward in fear, but after realizing it was just a wad of balled-up napkins, she straightened up and glared at Nancy. "What are you doing? I heard you're known for your hot temper, but this is Madam Getson's birthday party. You'd better behave yourself!" At that moment, Spencer had reached Nancy's side. He whispered under his breath, "Take no notice of her, Nancy. Why don't I bring you out to get another dress?" It was clear from his reaction that he did not want to be humiliated in front of the Getson family as well. He did not even try to defend her when Serena insulted her just now, but was now asking her to back off? It was only because he did not want to lose face in front of the continent's rich

Chapter 66 What?
Yaacob paused as though trying to understand what she was trying to say. After a moment, he connected the dots. "Are you talking about those boxers in my drawer?" "Yes. It's like you're collecting the colors of the rainbow. Is it some kind of secret mission I don't know about?" Nancy chuckled at the thought of this. "I didn't think someone like you would like wearing colorful underwear." "Those aren't mine! My grandmother came over to help me tidy the house before I returned, and she had bought me most of my clothes. You should know, old grandmothers like colorful things." Yaacob glanced at Nancy and could not help reiterating, "Didn't you notice I kept them all in the guest room? That's because they're all brand new. I've never even worn them." It was no wonder she kept snickering at him lately. Had she been making fun of his underwear collection all along? Yaacob felt a strong duty to emphasize his masculinity. "Why the hell would I wear boxers like that?" Nancy, however, w

Chapter 67 Do You Think Your Apology Is Enough?
"Damn it, Nancy. I spent nights scouring pages just to get you this information, and now you're telling me you already know?" Todd complained. Nancy rubbed her temples in frustration. "I just found out a few minutes ago that Yaacob is Damon Getson's son." "What the fuck? Damon Getson has an illegitimate son? This is going to make headlines!" "You didn't know this at all, Todd? I find that surprising, considering you're always the first to hear things like this." "I had no idea, but I heard that Damon Getson had an affair with an escort about twenty years ago. Hey, Nancy, does that mean that escort is Yaacob's mother?" "Wait a minute. I need some time to process all this. Don't jump to conclusions just yet." "I know, I know, I'm just guessing. Since Yaacob is your husband now, I won't do anything that'll hurt his reputation, but I can help you investigate this!" "Am I even allowed to investigate his family like this?" Nancy wondered aloud. All of a sudden, the bathroom d

Chapter 68 Did We Cross the Line?
"I have some connections with the head of the museum that displays Mr. Lucas' works and the designer himself. After finding out that I was going to let my wife meet my family for the first time, he specially loaned this dress to me so my wife could wear it. Do you somehow think that the wife of Yaacob Getson cannot even afford to wear a legitimate designer dress?" Yaacob emphasized the word 'family' so that it sounded more serious. In a way, he was trying to make this sound like Serena had crossed the entire Getson family with her wrongdoing rather than Nancy alone. Since Damon had already revealed to the public that Yaacob was his son, to look down on Yaacob meant to look down on the richest man! Serena was horrified by this. "It wasn't me! It was Vivian who said that!" With that, she turned back to search the crowd and finally found the girl in glasses who she claimed to be a designer. "Vivian, tell them what you said to me. didn't you say that Mr. Lucas made only one of thes

Chapter 69 Don't Fall for Me
Nancy was so engrossed in her thoughts that once again, she lost her footing and almost fell. Thankfully, Yaacob managed to catch her just in time. "What's wrong?" he asked, staring at her. "I… I couldn't keep my balance." Yaacob glanced at her shoe. Then, he kneeled down and began inspecting her ankle. Nancy froze. She did not expect him to get on his knees just to check her feet in front of all these people. She tried to pull him to stand again, but he grabbed hold of her calf and lifted her feet up, then took off her heels. "What… What are you doing?" "You sprained your ankle. Don't even bother wearing heels anymore. It's not like you need them!" Clutching her heels, he then bent down to pick her up in his arms. That was his second time carrying her like this, aside from the first night they spent together as a married couple. This time, however, things felt entirely different from the last. Nancy remembered feeling both nervous and excited at the prospect of mak

Chapter 70 Affair
Nancy finished getting ready at lightning speed, picked out a presentable outfit, and finally strode out the bedroom door. By the time she went downstairs, however, she was dismayed. Damon had already left. "Hey… where's your father?" Nancy asked Yaacob. "He left." "Already?" Nancy scratched her head in puzzlement, then asked, hoping Yaacob's answer would be the one she wanted to hear. "Did he see me just now?" "Of course he did," Yaacob replied in all honesty. "He even warned me not to tire you out in the future." How humiliating! "Why didn't you tell me your father was coming? I didn't know, and if I had known, I would've put in some effort to look presentable. How embarrassing," Nancy blamed him. "How was I supposed to tell you when you're knocked out?" "You could've woken me!" "Are you sure you wouldn't have beat me up for waking you before noon?" Nancy could not come up with a comeback for this. He was right. She was a heavy sleeper with a temper, and definit
