The white Christian Louboutins Anna wore made a rhythmic clicking against the marble floor as she climbed the stairs toward the mansion's terrace.As soon as the front door opened, Aunt Emma immediately rushed to greet her.“Welcome back, Miss,” Aunt Emma greeted her with a respectful bow.The woman deftly took the bag from Anna’s hand, then gently slipped the Saint Laurent blazer off her employer’s shoulders. Now, Anna’s body was clad only in a cream-colored, sleeveless, off-the-shoulder bodycon dress that clearly accentuated every curve of her beautiful figure.“Has Xavier returned yet?” Anna asked, intending to thrust the divorce papers right in his face.“He’s just returned from work, Miss. He’s currently at the shooting range in the backyard.”Her initial plan had been to head to Xavier’s study, but now she turned around and made her way toward the spacious field behind the mansion.Time seemed to fly by for Anna since her meeting with Adrian that afternoon. Now, the sky above h

The ringing of the phone could be heard faintly from the bedroom. “Ma’am, I found your cell phone ringing nonstop on the nightstand,” said a young maid named Lily, hurriedly handing her the phone as soon as Anna stepped out of the bathroom. “It sounds like an important call, Ma’am.”Anna picked up her cell phone, which she had deliberately turned off last night to escape her mother’s relentless calls. Apparently, her mother still hadn’t given up this morning.Her goal? Nothing less than to force her to come to the hospital and donate blood for Jessica, whose illness had now relapsed.How shameless! After kicking her out of the house and threatening to cut off family ties, they still had the nerve to use her body as a walking blood bank.How long were they going to treat her like this!“Miss, are you okay?” Lily asked, seemingly noticing the change in Anna’s expression.Anna turned off her phone screen, then handed it back to Lily with a forced, faint smile.“Someone’s been bothering m

The large window framing the spacious room offered nothing but a vast expanse of pitch-black night. Fifteen minutes had already passed, but Anna seemed reluctant to look away. There was really nothing interesting to see. The window in front of her simply revealed the garden on the south side of the mansion, the still waters of the swimming pool, and a row of pine trees in the distance beginning to be swallowed by thick fog.Anna’s thoughts wandered far away, while her chest continued to be tormented by a gnawing anxiety ever since she’d set foot in Xavier’s room.The distinctive masculine scent of cedar wood and tobacco filled the room. The fragrance, which should have been soothing, somehow now felt suffocating.A chill breeze slipped through a crack in the window, lifting the deep red satin robe wrapped around her body. Feeling the cold begin to pierce her skin, Anna walked slowly toward the king-size bed.She sat down on the edge of the bed. Her eyes were fixed on the bathroom door

“Take off your clothes, Anna. I want to see the obedience you promised me this afternoon.”Anna’s eyelids remained tightly shut for a few seconds. When she opened them again, the turmoil in her eyes was replaced by a blank stare. Her emotions and anger had nearly spilled over. Once again, she could only remind herself that this was the only way to live a decent life, even if it meant having her self-respect trampled on until nothing remained.Anna reached for the sash of her red satin robe, slowly letting the outer layer slide down to her feet. Under Xavier’s hungry gaze, she touched the thin straps of her sheer nightgown, sliding them off her shoulders. She froze when his hand suddenly shot out, gripping her wrist.“Let me take it from here.”In fact, the man didn’t immediately remove the rest of Anna’s clothes. Instead, Xavier reached for the wine bottle on the nightstand. With a slow motion, he tilted the bottle directly over Anna’s neck.The cold red liquid fell, flowing slowly do
