Erica's eyes fluttered open. Her body was about to rise, but a strong hand still circled her waist. Arnold's warm breath still brushed her neck. Erica closed her eyes again, savoring every beat of her racing heart. She smiled, remembering what happened the night before. Arnold had brought her to a peak of pleasure she had never experienced in her life. Though it had started with pain, Arnold managed to turn all that pain into pure bliss.Erica moved slightly, creating a bit of noise as she tried to get up. This action only stirred something within Arnold. He tightened his embrace around Erica."Where are you going, darling?"Erica's heart soared at the endearment Arnold used. She lost count of how many times he had called her "darling" the night before. Her husband had also said "I love you" several times during their intimate moments. Erica's love for Arnold grew exponentially."I want to take a shower," Erica murmured playfully."Do you want me to bathe you, hmm?" Arnold pressed

"Derrick, who is this man?""Huh?"Troy's eyes widened in disbelief at what he was hearing and seeing. Sarah had called Derrick by the name and ignored him, looking at him as if he were a stranger. Sarah's gaze toward him was completely different."Sweetheart, it's me, Troy. I'm your husband!" Troy panicked and unconsciously gripped Sarah's arm again, causing her to wince in pain."Ouch, it hurts. Derrick, please help me. Make this man go away. I'm scared!" Sarah kept looking at Derrick with pleading eyes.Derrick, still standing not far behind Troy, was stunned. He couldn't believe that Sarah had called his name."Derrick!" Sarah kept calling out to Derrick with a fearful expression.Meanwhile, Derrick remained frozen, looking back and forth between Sarah and Troy. He didn't know what to do at that moment."Derrick, call the doctor, quickly!" Hearing Troy's urgent tone, Derrick hurried out to find the doctor and nurses.A few seconds later, a doctor and two nurses entered to

"Derrick, starting today, I'm promoting you to be my personal assistant," Troy spoke with a serious tone. Lately, he had been overwhelmed with handling several work contracts from advertising companies. He also needed someone to take care of all his needs. At the moment, Derrick was the only person he could trust."Thank you. What do you need me to do?" Derrick's face lit up. With this new job, he was sure his salary would be much higher."I'll email you some contracts that you need to handle. I want to focus on taking care of Sarah until she fully recovers. Make sure we don't accept any jobs for the next two months."Derrick nodded. He had just arrived at the hospital ten minutes ago and went straight to see Troy in the VIP room."Derrick!"The two men sitting on the sofa immediately turned when they heard Sarah calling out.Derrick glanced at Troy nervously. He wanted to approach Sarah, but he was worried that Troy wouldn't allow it."Go to Sarah, tell her the truth. But don't

"Hello, Erica. Is Arnold still there?" It turned out that the caller was Irene."Oh, it's you, Irene. Yes, he's still here. Hold on, you can talk to him directly," Erica replied, glancing at her husband."Here, Irene wants to talk to you." Erica handed the phone to Arnold, catching him off guard as he fumbled to put the phone to his ear."Hello, what's up?""Why are you still there? Your parents have been pacing around waiting for you, but it turns out you haven't even left yet. So, what should we do? Should we postpone it?" Irene's voice carried a tone of disappointment."No, don't! I'll be home shortly. Just wait for me!" Arnold quickly ended the call with Irene and handed the phone back to his wife. He watched as Erica prepared to leave for Troy's house. Although he was reluctant to let her go, it wouldn't be fair to stop her from simply accompanying Troy's children, especially since he was about to leave Erica to marry someone else. Arnold rubbed his face roughly, trying to cl

"We've arrived. Today, Gillian is off from school, so everyone should be home," whispered Troy, sitting right next to Sarah."This... is our home?" Sarah was stunned by the sight of the large, luxurious house as the car entered through the gate."Troy... I'm nervous!" Sarah whispered, unconsciously gripping Troy's arm tightly."Relax, sweetheart. Everything will be fine," Troy tried to reassure her.A nanny hurried over to open the car door and reached for Kingsley from Sarah's lap. However, Sarah hesitated to hand over her baby to the nanny."Ma’am, let me take the baby," said Annie, who had been with the family since Prince was a baby.Seeing this, Troy quickly approached and gently explained, "Sweetheart, this is Annie who has been taking care of Prince since he was a baby. So, you don't need to worry. She will help you take care of Baby Kingsley."Sarah nodded and, without saying anything further, handed her baby over to Annie."Let's go inside," Troy said as he helped Sara
