But his entire body was pressing down on her, taut and rigid, making it impossible for her to push him away. It wasn't until she bit through his lip that he finally stopped. "Did you sneak off to the U.S. just to go on a date with another man? Huh?" His large hand gripped her chin, forcing her to look up at him. Selena Patrick laughed bitterly, scoffing, "What right do you have to control me?" "How do I not have the right to control you?" He yanked off the jacket Baggio had draped over her. "I'm your damn husband." "Whose damn husband are you?" Was he forgetful, or did he think she was? The woman stared at him, her gaze dead and unyielding. His dark eyes focused intently on her, his brows slightly furrowed. "What do you mean by that?" "With Mr. Maugham's intelligence, pretending to be stupid is laughable." She pushed him away forcefully, straightening her hair and clothes. "Show some self-respect." "Selena Patrick, you..." She showed no remorse at all.

She completely disregarded Selena Patrick, even with a hint of mockery in her tone."President Shen, I came to see you today really for the matter of designing an evening gown. The thing is, President Huo and I…"She paused, smiling but not saying more, as if it was something hard to put into words."Slept together?" Selena Patrick asked bluntly."Oh!" Bai Xue laughed, feigning shyness while being proud. "President Shen, you always ask such embarrassing questions.""Do you have any shame at all?" Selena Patrick retaliated fiercely against this provocation. "You're telling the original wife that you slept with her man, and you're proud of it. How could your mother give birth to someone like you?"This slap landed heavily on Bai Xue's face.Bai Xue was stunned: "Why did you hit me?""You came here to show off, wasn't it just to get slapped by me? Did I misunderstand your intentions?"The slap was light compared to what she could do.If Bai Xue provoked her again, she would deal

Dou Yixiao also came to understand, looking at the pale-faced woman, he added, "Zhan Xiao wanted twenty million, you two must have discussed this, right? Why sacrifice yourself for his greed? You're a top celebrity now; earning twenty million is easy. Edward Maugham doesn't mind you using him for publicity, but don't push your luck. Know when to stop.""I..."Of course, she wouldn't care about twenty million.What she wanted was Edward Maugham himself.If she could marry him and enter the prestigious Maugham family, she would become the young mistress of Jiang City's most illustrious household.Such an honor was something many noble women could only dream of."Bai Xue, think carefully. One wrong move, and you could end up on two very different paths."This was Dou Yixiao's final warning.Edward Maugham, clearly lacking Dou Yixiao's patience, gave Gale Jonathan a look.Gale Jonathan then dragged her out.Bai Xue screamed in fear."No, no...""Did you sleep with Edward Maugha

"I heard it's a wilderness survival activity, and the school requires fathers to participate," came the information.What on earth is this wilderness survival?Selena Patrick was puzzled: "Is it dangerous?"Nian Aunt wasn't sure about the level of danger, but she had heard that the location for this wilderness survival was a notoriously dangerous area."It's in a place called Yangshui Slope. I’ve heard there are lots of snakes, insects, rats, and ants, and the environment is harsh. The school says it's to train the children's survival skills in extreme conditions, but since the children are so young, they require their fathers to accompany them."The more Selena Patrick listened, the tighter her brow furrowed.What kind of school is this?Is this wilderness survival?This is clearly survival in the wild.Pfft.It's all the same thing.How could the school think of such a thing for such young children?Even with their fathers accompanying them, what good would it do?They c

Half an hour later, a stretcher carrying someone was brought out. Selena Patrick widened her eyes in alarm. The reporters rushed over to inquire but returned soon after, looking dejected. "We are deeply sorry to report that a child has had an accident and is being taken to the hospital. We ask all parents watching at home to please be patient as we work on rescuing everyone. We will do our utmost to ensure the safety of both the children and adults."Selena Patrick's heart began to race wildly. A child was injured? Was it just an injury or something worse? She could no longer stay still. No, she had to go to the scene, even if they wouldn't let her in, even if there was nothing she could do, she needed to be there.She grabbed a raincoat from the closet and put it on, then found a pair of rain boots. "Aunt Nian, if you get through to him, tell him I've gone to the site. He can come find me there.""Madam, are you going to the site? It's very dangerous there," Aunt Nian tried to stop
