"Seeing Raymond, Margaret lifted her eyelids slightly and asked expressionlessly, 'Is there anything I can help with?' Raymond softly replied, 'Mom, Arabella has been discharged. Do you know where she went?' Margaret simply smiled. 'You're her husband, and you don't even know where she went. How would I know?' 'She misunderstood me and is upset with me. She's gone somewhere, and I have no idea where. A young woman wandering alone with an injury is very dangerous. Please tell me where she went so I can find her.' His tone was polite, but there was an undeniable air of command in his words—a born arrogance. Margaret sensed the subtle arrogance in his demeanor. She pulled a chair and sat down, looking at him contemptuously. 'For those two years, you had a bad temper and poor health. She took care of you day and night without complaints. But now, she's gone, and she must have suffered a lot.' Raymond's lips curled slightly as he coldly said, 'You're busy; I'll continue searching for

Reginald put his hand into his pants pocket and took out his phone, glancing at the screen. His expression changed ever so slightly.Arabella looked over curiously, catching a glimpse of the name "Chloe" out of the corner of her eye.Her heart sank. "Aren't you going to take that call?" she said.Reginald gave her a look. "Aren't you upset?"Arabella thought, if I get upset, he won't answer it.The phone kept ringing. "Go on then, don't keep her waiting," she prompted indifferently.Reginald gazed at her intently for a moment before accepting the call. "Chloe? What is it?"In the phone, Arabella could hear Chloe's feeble, pitiful voice. "Reginald, where have you been? You didn't come visit me at all yesterday. Will you come today? If you don't, I can hardly eat a thing, I'm so distraught..."A wave of disgust rose up within Arabella, revolting.Rising on her tiptoes, she leaned toward the phone, mimicking Chloe's tone. "Darling, I've already taken all my clothes off. What's taking you

Chloe choked back sobs. "Three years ago when Reginald was injured, I wanted to stay by his side and take care of him, but my mum sent people to forcibly take me abroad and had bodyguards watch me 24 hours a day. I missed Reggie so much, I felt extremely depressed.""I loved him very much, but we were cruelly separated." When I heard he got married, I cried for three whole days, utterly devastated."She stood there with tears brimming her eyes, head bowed, looking exactly like a wounded puppy. Anyone would have felt sorry for her.The old lady's expression softened a little. "When the doctor pronounced three years ago that Reginald would never walk again, I understand why you left. After all, that change was too huge for most people to accept." Whether you left voluntarily or were forced to, you had already broken up, and Reggie is married to someone else now. If you try to ruin their marriage, that would be your fault, you know?"Chloe wiped her eyes. "I didn't ruin Reginald marriage

Alabella quickly turned her head to avoid him, staring with wide eyes, looking at him warily. “What are you trying to do?”“What do you think?” Reginald pinched her little chin lightly, speaking nonchalantly.Alabella put her fingers under his chin to stop him from getting close to her mouth, and said very seriously: “You said you were going to get a divorce.”“Just now at the hospital, you also said you didn’t want it anymore.”His dark eyes looked at her intently. “I’m taking this matter very seriously.”Alabella lowered her lashes. “I don’t want to do this with you now.”Reginald raised an eyebrow slightly. “Who was the one seducing me just now?”“I wasn't. I, I...” Alabella suddenly didn't know how to express herself correctly.In her panic, her face turned red again.It wasn’t just her face, her neck and wrists were also covered in a light red glow, like little wild roses blooming in the snow.A beautiful and charming combination, innocent yet alluring, irresistibly tempting.Reg

Chloe stared at the nondescript bag hanging on Arabella's shoulder with a hint of contempt in her eyes. "Chloe, you come from some small village, you may not understand luxury. To shop here, you must be prepared to spend at least £10,0000 before they'll let you buy anything. Do you have that kind of money?""Of course," Arabella answered coldly.She herself did not care much about luxury items. On her way out she had grabbed the first bag she saw, barely remembering what brand it was, only that it was convenient for carrying things."Oh?" Chloe asked with a frigid laugh. "It seems Miss Arabella has no hesitation spending Mr. Reginald's money. You are too generous."Arabella smiled. "He's my husband. I can spend however I want without needing permission from outsiders like you."Chloe scoffed. "Reginald and I grew up together for over ten years. We have a history you know nothing about. He even bought me my first Hermes bag! Compared to me, you're the outsider."Arabella did not bother
