Chapter 72 Taylor's SuspicionsCoralie was about to search the room after making sure Elizabeth was deeply asleep, but something caught her attention even more—the faintly visible bruise marks on Elizabeth's shoulders. Curious, she pulled the fabric a bit more and gasped, surprised by the intensity of those marks. She realized that Elizabeth had been assaulted in a cruel manner. Quickly, she left the room.Jayden emerged from his room shortly after Coralie left Richard's room. He didn't understand what she was doing there, but just in case, he decided to investigate. At that moment, he began to suspect the woman and examined Richard's room and then Elizabeth, who had her back exposed. For a brief moment, his eyes were fixed on her marks, feeling a bit guilty as well until he noticed she was without a shirt. He quickly exited the room, heading to the office."I hope you didn't wait too long," he commented upon entering."I just got in as well," Jayden responded while continuing to scru

Chapter 74 - Surprise EngagementRichard helped her out of the bathroom, dressing himself while she sat on the bed wrapped in a towel, looking at him provocatively as she subtly shook her hair."I'll take care of some things now, have your breakfast and rest. If you need anything, I'll be here," he informed, leaving the room as if trying to escape, while she held back her laughter.Jayden was already in the office with Richard's trusted lawyer, both examining and reading scattered documents on the table."Good morning, Mr. Campbell," the lawyer greeted with a brief handshake."Good morning, Monark. How are things?" Richard asked."Let's say I found a loophole. I analyzed your plan, and we might be able to act quickly, but I think it's a bit risky for you to relinquish your fifty percent.""But it will be for a good reason, and I want the media to announce it in detail so that no one else dares to try to steal from me!" he declared, annoyed.After sitting at the table, he began listeni

Chapter 76: Conflicts of a Heart"Why are you asking?" Elizabeth inquired, her expression odd."You seem strange," he commented, scrutinizing her suspiciously."It's nothing, just curious. What's happening in these three days?""Your recovery. A stylist will come in three days, and on that day, I want you to be more beautiful than you've ever been," he declared with conviction, leaving Elizabeth puzzled.Meanwhile, Taylor was in the same restaurant where Richard had met Bay. The secluded place seemed perfect for all kinds of meetings, including a secret gathering organized by Taylor, Emma, Ursula, and her father."I can't believe you found a weakness to bring down Richard," Taylor celebrated, holding a glass of wine."Well, he toyed with my daughter and decided not to keep his own word. Obviously, I wouldn't let that go," Afonso explained."As soon as I read that invitation, I couldn't have received better news."At that moment, Ursula looked at him in surprise."But who told you the

Chapter 78: What Richard is PlanningElizabeth didn't see Richard, even when she was ready. The stylist bid her farewell and left her alone in her room, with orders not to leave. Finally, someone knocked on the door, but thinking it was Richard, Jayden entered the room and briefly stared at her with no reaction."Mrs. Leblanc," he sighed, bowing slightly in reverence, extending his hand as an invitation."Where is Richard?" she asked uncertainly, feeling her chest tighten."He has already left and will be waiting for you. Shall we?" he called again, getting up and straightening his posture. She then passed by him without looking at him."You look as beautiful as the first time you were seen in such a gorgeous dress," he commented as they walked slowly down the corridor."Are you trying to be nice? I know you don't like me, so why are you complimenting me?""It's not that I don't like you; I just didn't trust you. Both Richard and I have had our reasons to stay away from people.""I al

Chapter 80: A Heavy GirlJayden remained leaning against the wall, cornering her."It's been a while since I've known you and Elizabeth. I don't see you as women, wouldn't have any wrong desire."How boring!" She grumbled, pushing him away and walking towards the hall, leaving Jayden behind."Ah, I'm so frustrated with Elizabeth." Brian grumbled again." How can I not dance with her? This time, she seems so happy... just today, it's a one in a million day..." he sighed enviously."Because she is." Ryuk commented indifferently." Sometimes I even think she's ashamed to be our sister."Relax, and again with this topic." Their mother, Eliza, sighed." Your sister is being happy like an ordinary woman. Maybe there's no price for the media to see a man like Richard openly declaring his love for such a simple woman. It's like a fairy tale."I doubt he would do that if she were really a simple woman." Brian grumbled."As far as I know, he would. After all, he tried." She commented ironically.G
