Sophia stood up slowly, adopting a soft demeanor, and came over affectionately to hold Emily's hand. "Emily, don't be angry. Carol is just worried about me. You know, I'm carrying the heir of the Reed family in my belly."Why don't you go compete for an Oscar? Emily felt thoroughly disgusted by Sophia.Carol, upon hearing Sophia's words, became even more infuriated. She pulled Sophia protectively behind her and pointed at Emily's nose. "I just can't stand her! She married into the Reed family on the pretext of old Mr. Reed's will, and for four years, she couldn't even bear a child. Is she trying to ruin the Reed family with her barrenness?!""Carol, calm down. It's not Emily's fault she can't conceive. She didn't do it on purpose...""My dear Sophia, why are you so kind-hearted? Even though Emily bullies you like this, you still speak up for her? Let me tell you, there are such despicable people in this world. You're good to them, and in the end, they'll turn around and bite you! You

Emily downed several cups of cold soda water, trying to calm herself down.But what Olivia had said over the phone still made her tremble uncontrollably.Her body was healthy, capable of bearing children. The doctor who issued the report of blocked fallopian tubes had taken Sophia's money!Emily suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.Since when had Sophia been planning all this? She first seduced Nathan at the company, then successfully got pregnant to force him into marriage. She even bribed the hospital's obstetrician-gynecologist to provide her with a fake medical report. And then she arranged for someone to take nude photos of her friend in room 2302.It was like a finely woven web, trapping her tightly, leaving no room for escape.Sophia was a venomous snake.Olivia had arranged to meet her at a café across from the Hilton hotel, and by now she should be there.Emily poured herself another large glass of soda water and changed her clothes before heading out.As soon as she ste

Olivia drove to the Hilton Hotel to pick her up.As soon as they entered, she sniffed around like a police dog.Emily chuckled, "What are you sniffing for?""I'm sniffing out the scent of a scumbag," Olivia said seriously as she sniffed from the living room to the bedroom, nodding in satisfaction. "It seems Mr. Satan is a good man. I trust him with you."Emily laughed, "You can tell he's a good man just by his smell? That's impressive!"Olivia proudly puffed out her chest, "Let me tell you, scumbags always have one characteristic—they carry the scent of other women. Whether it's the smell of makeup or perfume, I can sniff it out. You, I know you the best. Even though you used to be a makeup artist, you rarely use makeup. So, I can easily tell whether Mr. Satan has had close contact with other women."Emily nodded after hearing this; it made some sense."Hey, Emily, do you want a job?"Of course, she did.But she didn't have a college degree or any special skills. Finding a job wasn't

Emily's hand trembled, nearly dropping her phone into the sea.He was actually on the yacht!Emily bit her lip, unsure how to respond."Do you want to see me?" Mr. Satan's message came through again.Gritting her teeth, Emily replied with a simple "Yes" and hit send."Emily, not now."She was rejected.But Emily wasn't too upset. Mr. Satan had warned her before, hadn't he? He didn't want to turn on the lights or take off his mask; it was all about not revealing himself."I'm sorry, I shouldn't have come. I won't do it again," she replied."No need to apologize. As I said, you never need to apologize to me. Emily, I promise you, when the time is right, I'll let you know the real me.""Okay."As the screen darkened, Emily attempted to put her phone back in her bag, but another message popped up: "You looked beautiful today."Those words seemed to carry a warm, moist heat as they penetrated her ears and heart.It was like his hot breath in the dark night, spraying on her neck and whisper

Emily was awakened by Olivia's call at seven in the morning."Emily! Let's go eat Australian lobster!"After being "tossed around" by Mr. Satan in various positions for almost the whole night, Emily was so tired that she couldn't open her eyes properly. "Olivia, can we do it another day? I'm really sleepy...""Don't be like that! The lobsters today are amazing, you won't regret it."Emily sighed. "We're having lobster for breakfast?""Yeah, they just arrived fresh from Australia this morning. We have to eat them while they're still fresh! Come on, I was your chauffeur and bodyguard for free yesterday, give me a break, okay?"Emily didn't have any more excuses to refuse.After hanging up the phone, she was wrapped around the waist by a big hand. With a little force, she was pulled back into a hot embrace.The curtains were tightly drawn, not letting in a single ray of light into the room. Emily lay with her back to Mr. Satan, unable to move as he held her.For the first time in many da
