CHAPTER 41

Collins grabbed his phone as he sat comfortably on the seat with a jovial expression. He was happy that he had completed the contract with the clients and that things would move according to his plans.The company will get huge exposure in multiple countries, and that will multiply our income, making me successful.“I have reached a milestone by securing foreign investors, but I still have my biggest dream to achieve.The huge one I’ve been aiming for. I must find a way to convince Agatha as soon as possible.She must hand over everything to me because I'm the man who can protect the properties. And if that happens, that will be the end of the journey for them,” Collins mouthed with determination in his eyes as he ran his hand through his hair in frustration.He pulled out his phone from his pocket and intended to call Agatha to update her on their contract.He dialed her number, and the line indicated it was going through.“Hello, honey,” Agatha said in a soft voice.“Hi, honey, I ha

CHAPTER 42

Sarah pulled over at the parking lounge of Raymond’s mansion. Her eyes were dry from the drenched tears.She felt she had cried enough already and needed to accept the problems that had erupted in her relationship. She had to look forward and take her enemies down.“Linda has promised to uncover Lucy’s true colors, so I must be strong for myself because I have a lot to focus on—the company and reclaiming my properties,” Sarah uttered with determination in her eyes. She heaved a deep sigh to calm her nerves and accept her fate.She stepped down from the car and threw the keys to the driver standing at the lounge. The driver greeted her with an excited grin, exposing his white teeth, and Sarah responded with a wave as she passed by him, heading toward the door leading to the hall.Sarah intended to leave the house and live with Linda because of Lucy. She presumed Lucy would be troublesome and wasn’t ready to tolerate her nonsense.Sarah had deliberated on it with Linda, but Linda sugges

CHAPTER 43

“You are only considered to be in this house because of the child you're carrying for Raymond.I don't even think that the pregnancy you claim is for Raymond is true or not, so don't even think of calling yourself a mistress in this house. Raymond saw you, but he chose me to be his queen, and I deserve that position from him, but not a greedy lady like you,” Sarah exclaimed with a mocking grin as she looked at Lucy, who was filled with anger.Lucy’s heart twisted painfully in her chest, making her look at Sarah with reddened eyes as she felt her heart racing.She stepped closer to Sarah, gripped onto her cloth, and ranted,“I will deal with you today, you bastard.”“Let go of me. Leave me alone,” Sarah sputtered while trying hard to shove Lucy’s hands from her cloth, but Lucy’s grip was firm, and she was shaking Sarah with all her might, wanting to grab Sarah’s hair, but Sarah was defending herself.Their voices grew louder in the hall, catching the workers' and Raymond’s attention.T

CHAPTER 44

The night disappeared like a speeding train. Sarah waited for Raymond the whole night, but he didn't come, so she slept over and left the door unlocked.Sarah gasped awake to turn off the ringing alarm that echoed in her ears from the edge of the bed.She blinked several times, rubbed her eyes, and a yawn escaped from her lips as she stretched her body.She turned around, and her eyes widened in pleasant surprise as she saw Raymond sleeping soundly like a baby.Raymond held onto Sarah’s nightgown in his sleep, and Sarah grinned when she saw that.She gently removed her gown from Raymond's arms, intending to head to the bathroom without waking him up.Meanwhile, Raymond felt it when the gown slipped through his fingers, but he didn't open his eyes, pretending to still be asleep.He grinned when he noticed Sarah’s intention of sneaking away from him quietly.Just as Sarah was about to step down from the bed, Raymond grabbed her from behind, making her flinch. She fell into Raymond’s arm

CHAPTER 45

Lucy’s jaw tightened when Raymond’s words pierced her ears. She glared at him with discomfort, sensing her heartbeat racing with jealousy, and she uttered,“You are being unfair to me. Why do you think so much about her and care less for your unborn child? I'm carrying your child, Raymond, and that must be the most important thing to you because you don’t have an heir.If you don’t love me much, then don’t abandon your child because we need you now. Your child is innocent and doesn’t deserve rejection from you.”Raymond’s face drew into worry when he heard Lucy's complaints. He scratched his head as frustration built in his eyes. His gaze shifted to Lucy's exposed stomach, looking at it deeply as the desire to hold his child consumed him.He thought that what happened between them was unplanned, but he didn’t have to make his child feel lonely because it was his blood.Lucy looked into Raymond’s eyes and noticed her words had put him in deep thought, which made her mouth curve into a

CHAPTER 46

Sarah got to the lot and entered the car that was waiting for her, with the driver behind it. The driver smiled at Sarah when he noticed her presence. He got into the car immediately and started the engine as he drove off from the lot.Sarah heaved a deep sigh as she gripped the seatbelt and let go of the tension pressing down on her heart.She was consumed with jealousy over Raymond spending time with Lucy, but since they hadn't received any confirmation about Lucy’s secret lover concerning Lucy's pregnancy, Sarah didn't want to accuse Lucy of forcing the pregnancy on Raymond just to have him for herself.She had intended to wait until they discovered who Lucy's secret lover was before exposing her to Raymond and everyone.Sarah rolled her eyes to the louvers, dispelling the thought from her mind. She rolled down the louvers, wanting some fresh air on her body.She closed her eyes and took a breath in as the air brushed her face. In the midst of her interaction with the air, she reca
