Karina's hand moved toward the lamp by the bed, lifting it to defend herself.“What are you trying to do?” Devon raised a brow as he switched on the lights. He took off his suit jacket and hung it up before sitting at the end of the bed.Karina breathed a sigh of relief and gently placed the lamp back.“W–Why are you here?” She sat up, pulling her legs to her chest as she noticed him unbuttoning his shirt.“In case you've forgotten, this is my room,” he replied, turning to face her.“Ahh!” she exclaimed, quickly getting off the bed. “I—I’ll head to my room now.”She was about to leave when Devon spoke.“Your parents did that to you. Am I right?”He took off his shirt and tied his robe around his waist.Her foot hung in the air before she slowly placed it back down.How did he know about that?“Don't think this changes my opinion of you,” he sneered, his voice turning colder. “You're still the woman who took her sister's place and slept with her husband. Maybe if you had listened to yo

“I–I went to see a friend,” Karina stuttered, not daring to meet his gaze.Devon didn’t respond.His eyes drifted down to the flowers in her hands.“Lovely flowers.”Karina quickly hid them behind her back, cursing herself for forgetting she was carrying them.The expression on his face made it seem like he thought they were anything but lovely.“Sleeping with me isn't enough, so now you go out to see other men?” Devon lashed out, scowling.“It's not like that,” Karina shot back.“We just had lunch, that's all.”Her voice lowered slightly toward the end.Devon scoffed and stepped closer.“If I find out you're having an affair while in this marriage…”His eyes stayed fixed on her.“…best believe I'll break your legs.”Then he turned and went upstairs.The loud bang of the bedroom door echoed through the house.Karina held her chest and slowly exhaled.At least he didn't choke her this time.Her eyes drifted toward the kitchen.His meal still sat untouched on the counter.Was it because

Devon and Karina sat on one side of the dining table, his parents directly across from them.Jade and her parents filled the remaining seats.Karina’s stepmother glanced at her and frowned.That bitch is starting to resemble her mother.She exchanged a look with her husband.Didn't Jade say they didn't have a good relationship?No matter what, they weren't leaving today without ruining Karina.Karina stood up, took the basket from Devon, and placed it on the table, gently pushing it toward his parents.“I brought this for both of you. I hope you enjoy it.”She bowed slightly.Mr. Russell took the basket and opened it, bringing out the contents.Jade spoke up, covering her mouth in mock surprise.“Karina, you didn't ask your chef to make this, did you?”She tilted her head.“I mean… it's not like they don't already have food here.”Karina looked at Jade but kept her expression blank.She knew what she was trying to imply.But she wasn't backing down so easily this time.Mrs. Leila glan

Karina opened her eyes and slowly sat up, looking around.She was in Devon's room again.She checked the time and blinked in surprise.It was already afternoon.Did she really sleep for that long?Pushing the blanket aside, she got out of bed and made her way to the living room.She looked around, but no one was in sight.Even Betty wasn't running around noisily like usual.“Everyone finished their work and left already. Only the guards remain.”Karina turned at the sound of Patricia’s voice.The older woman smiled warmly as she walked closer.She didn't mention that Devon had specifically instructed everyone to finish up early and avoid disturbing Karina’s sleep.“Oh,” Karina responded softly before suddenly remembering something. “Wait—did he bring back anything last night?”The memory of them heading to the mall before she fell asleep surfaced in her mind.“Yes. I've already arranged the clothes in your room.” Patricia paused before adding meaningfully, “You can wear one of them wh

Jade paced back and forth, biting her nails anxiously. She pulled out her phone and was about to make a call when she spotted Karina's car pulling into the parking lot.A smile flashed across her face.She slipped her phone back into her purse and hurried over.Jade stepped directly into Karina's path.“What did you do to Devon?” Karina demanded, grabbing her wrist.Jade shook her off and crossed her arms.“What does it matter to you?” she scoffed.Her gaze briefly flickered toward the hotel across the road.Karina caught it immediately.Her heart began pounding as she turned and ran toward the hotel.Jade watched her leave, a smug smile spreading across her lips. Then she pulled out her phone and dialed the number again.“She’s already there. Make sure you do your part.”“Of course,” the voice replied. “Leave it to me.”By the time Karina reached the hotel, she was breathless.She rushed to the reception desk and quickly pulled out her phone.“Excuse me.” She turned the screen toward
