บททั้งหมดของ Mr. Frost’s Reluctant Prisoner Bride: บทที่ 51 - บทที่ 60

Few of these women had any kindness towards her.She knew it.These humiliations and abuses were something she couldn't resist. Rather than struggling in pain, it was better to accept them willingly, to suffer a little less torment."What else can I do? My grandfather is very enlightened," Rose curled the left corner of her lip, as if smiling, but it was stiff and cunning. "...Call the police. Grandfather said, conduct business according to the rules, calculate everything as it should be."This was her purpose.Only by driving Vanessa away could her marriage to Julian be secured.This woman had to be dealt with.Sooner or later, she would cause trouble.But hearing the word "police," Vanessa's face suddenly changed. She stood in the light like a disembodied shell, her lips trembling, as if pleading. "...Don't call the police. Anything, just don't call the police."The custom-made gem necklace, three months in the making, was finally in her hands.Rose put on an off-the-shoulder dress

That was true.Vanessa used to boss around the nannies when she was little. They suffered terribly. If they scorched her blouse, got the wrong sheet music, or forgot to dust the piano, they would be fired for any mistake.Julian once questioned her, "You fire them for small mistakes. Don't you think you're being excessive?""Excessive?" Vanessa replied with an innocent and delicate face. "Regardless of the size of the error, once a mistake is made, I can't forgive it."Snowflakes swirled, and her figure seemed to be standing in the snow, covered in it, looking like a snowman.The car sped past, catching a glimpse of her frozen red cheeks. Julian then realized it wasn't an illusion; it was real.This was Vanessa, struggling to make a living.He glanced coldly, dismissing it, but his gaze involuntarily fell on the rearview mirror. Vanessa's shadow gradually shrank, yet magnified in his heart.After seeing Rose off.Jerry was driving, and Julian lightly rubbed his fingertips. After a lon

Vanessa treated her wounds herself. She had plenty of experience in that area. When her father beat her so badly that her wounds festered, she would secretly buy gauze and disinfectant to bandage them.But she had to get rid of the smell before her father came back.If he knew she was hiding money, it would only result in another beating.The next day, she had Ruth's lesson.After the last incident, Vanessa had resigned from the Lane family, but Ruth only wanted her to teach. Helpless, she agreed to go two more times.On the way to drop her off, Perry worried about her injuries. "Are you sure it's not serious?""I'm fine."She let her long hair down, covering the white gauze on her forehead. She was already thin, and with her hair obscuring half her face, she looked even more pale and haggard, like an old crystal ball, fragile and easily broken, yet strong.He dropped her off at the Lane residence.Perry pointed to the watch face. "I'll be back to pick you up on time.""Okay, thank yo

"What exactly do you mean?"Adrian wasn't stupid. He exhaled smoke, scrutinizing and contemplating, then chuckled after a moment. "Julian, you're quite something. You couldn't stand her back then, and now you're suddenly smitten?"This wasn't a big deal."What, do you need me to fetch her to ease your boredom?"With someone like Julian, not denying was often the same as admitting.Leila hid outside the door, tears streaming down her face. She was fragile to begin with, hadn't experienced such turmoil. Suddenly taken in by Julian, she lost her peaceful life, only to become a plaything they could send back and forth.But that wasn't the worst part.The worst part was Vanessa.Standing in front of the music store, Vanessa held an umbrella and gazed at a violin inside for a long time. The violin had a clear price tag, a sum she'd have trouble scraping together.The agreed-upon lesson time had arrived.She reluctantly left.As Leila was about to get out of the car, the driver hurried to ho

The location was arranged by Adrian. Julian was at the same table as Vanessa, who was with Evelyn. Perry had taken his seat early.Julian tapped his cigarette ash, glancing at Perry's face in the reflection of the porcelain white dessert plate on the table. A typical pretty boy, good at deceiving people.Especially a stupid woman like Vanessa, it was effortless for him.Returning from Evelyn's side, Vanessa walked towards Perry, her eyes filled with wariness as she swept past Julian. Before she could sit down, she was suddenly called away.Separated by two tables, in the changing lights of the banquet hall, Vanessa standing in this environment, a sense of constraint and unease arose, a look that the Voss family's eldest daughter would never have.But she no longer bore the Voss name.Suddenly called away by a staff member and assigned to another table, these were not good people.Vanessa wanted to leave, but someone beside her grabbed her tightly, "Isn't this Vanessa? Long time no see
