Chapter 1

Alvina Jones stood outside the study, listening to the muffled groans of pain coming from inside, where her husband, Eden Gray, was undergoing another therapy session.A long while later, the study door finally opened.Eden stepped out, his face flushed.Only then did Alvina relax her clenched fists, her fingernails having nearly dug into her palms. She walked over calmly."Finished with the session?""Mmm." Eden gently stroked her long hair."How did it go?""The same as always. Every time Dr. Warren guides me through the trauma, it brings back the fear. The process is painful, but once it's over, I feel completely relieved."He truly looked as though a tremendous weight had been lifted from his shoulders."You heard Eden groaning, Alvina. You must be worried sick."Wendy Warren stepped out behind him with a warm smile. Her luminous eyes seemed to ripple with warmth, carrying an effortless allure.Alvina returned the smile. "Not at all. You're one of the most respected psychologists

Chapter 2

Alvina nearly laughed from sheer disbelief.She noticed long ago that Wendy’s daughter was not as innocent as other children her age.Lily knew exactly how to please Eden, while treating Alvina in a completely different way.Before Alvina discovered the affair, she never thought too deeply about it.Now, it seemed every one of the child’s actions was instigated by her mother.Wendy used a five-year-old child to frame her for using a sex toy. If she had gone so far as to coach her own daughter like this, she must have had a purpose.As for what that purpose was, Alvina still did not know.Her cold gaze fell on the child who lied without hesitation, and she asked sharply, “Lily, are you sure you found this in my room?”“Yes. Under your pillow.”Lily lied without even blinking.“That doesn’t belong to me. As for where it came from, I’m afraid you’ll have to ask Dr. Warren.”Alvina’s piercing gaze shifted to Wendy.Wendy quickly pulled her daughter behind her. “Children don’t lie. Alvina,

Chapter 3

Through the surveillance feed, Alvina watched Eden and Wendy enter the study one after the other.They had just screwed each other at noon, and by night, they were already desperate for more…What an addiction.Wendy was wearing a trench coat. At first glance, nothing seemed wrong.But once she stood in front of Eden and removed the coat, everything beneath was laid bare.The two stood together as Wendy took a long silk ribbon and covered Eden’s eyes with it.But what happened next left Alvina stunned.Eden picked up a bottle of perfume and sprayed it over Wendy.Alvina knew that perfume better than anyone. It was the perfume she made herself, the one she usually wore.She had a habit of making several bottles of the same scent and keeping them around the house as backups.She never expected Eden to take that bottle and spray it on Wendy.What was he trying to do?Their conversation soon gave her the answer.Wendy hooked one arm around Eden’s neck while her other hand slid across his

Chapter 4

The process was exactly the same as the day before.After Alvina confirmed that Eden had sprayed the perfume on Wendy, she turned off her phone.The nausea from yesterday was too awful. She had no desire to go through it again.…Inside the study.Wendy was in the middle of giving Eden her so-called dedicated treatment.Suddenly, an itch spread over her body, and she could not help scratching.It felt as though unknown insects had crawled all over her. The itching grew stronger and stronger.She could not stop scratching herself.“Eden, I’m so itchy…”The man teased, “You’re that desperate for me?”Wendy stood up and scratched hard at her chest. “No, my body is itching. I’m going to die from it.”The study lights were off. Only a dim candle lamp was lit, casting a faint glow that created a suggestive atmosphere.It was exactly the kind of mood Eden liked.Eden removed the long silk ribbon from his eyes and turned on the main light. Both of them were immediately startled.“Eden, what…

Chapter 5

The backyard of the Gray residence was a garden.Inside, Alvina planted all kinds of rare flowers for her perfumery.She usually tended to them with great care, almost as if she were raising children.As Alvina rushed downstairs, countless possibilities flashed through her mind. Could Wendy have resented her for tampering with the perfume and instructed Lily to pick her flowers?But when she reached the scene, she realized the situation was far worse than she imagined.Lily had done far more than pick her flowers. She set fire to her garden.The rare flowers Alvina spent three years planting had already been swallowed by the flames and reduced to nothing.Datura, rosemary, black roses, cardamom, geranium, clary sage—everything she could name and everything she could not had turned into charred, withered branches, lying scattered across the ground like the aftermath of a silent massacre.Lily stood off to the side, wailing loudly.Through her sobs, she kept apologizing. “I’m sorry, Al

Chapter 6

”I must have been blind.”Alvina tasted the irony in those words and let out a soft laugh.Her gaze was cold as she walked up to Eden. She did not accuse him of saying exactly what she was thinking. Instead, she said calmly, “Then it’s not too late for you to regret it. Do you want a divorce? I’m ready whenever you are.”Eden froze in stunned disbelief.Alvina turned and instructed the housekeeper beside her, “Go get the wedding dress from my closet.”The housekeeper did not understand why, but she could only obey.A moment later, the housekeeper carefully carried the expensive couture wedding dress, custom-made overseas, into the living room.She held it cautiously in her arms, protecting it the same way Alvina once had.Everyone knew how much Alvina treasured that wedding dress, Eden included.To her, it had once been proof of all the years they loved each other.But now, it would also bear witness to how completely their past turned to ash.With none of her former tenderness, Alvi

Chapter 7

As Eden held the camera between his fingers, the shock inside him was no less than a violent earthquake.His mind went completely blank.A camera? There was actually a camera in his study?Then everything he and Wendy had done in here…Panic came crashing down on him, but he forced himself to calm down.The most urgent thing now was to figure out where the camera came from.His first thought was that Alvina might have installed it.But once he calmed down and thought it through, the camera might not have anything to do with her. He could not lose his composure. If Alvina knew, there was no way she would have stayed so quiet.Just like that day, he reassured himself again that Alvina loved him.Out of jealousy alone, she would have caused a scene.After forcing his tangled emotions under control, he took out his phone and sent Alvina a message.“Come to my study.”Alvina was just about to leave for the studio when she received Eden’s message, so she turned around and went to his study

Chapter 8

“I’m warning you. Don’t do anything reckless. If you dare lay a hand on me, you’ll regret it.”Alvina warned him again.The man could no longer hold himself back. He licked his lips as he stripped off his clothes. “Relax. If I dare lay a hand on you, that means someone’s already covering for me.”“Who? Who told you to do this?”Alvina glared at him with eyes full of hatred.Her pupils were almost bulging out of their sockets.“That’s not something you need to know. I’m going to take a shower first. I’ll have plenty of fun with you later.”The man did not need to force her, because Alvina had been drugged. Once the drug took effect, it would be far more exciting when she started begging for it herself.All he had to do was wait patiently.The creep went into the bathroom. When the sound of running water came from the bathroom, Alvina began struggling with everything she had, forcing strength back into her body through sheer willpower.She staggered upright, with only one thought in her

Chapter 9

All the windows Alvina climbed past were closed. Only this one was left open.By then, she was completely drained, her body swaying dangerously at the edge of the window.Just as she was about to fall, the man reached out and pulled her in, and her whole body collapsed like a rag doll.She landed right on top of him.Sariel had long grown used to Meredith seizing every possible chance to push women into his life.But this was the first time one arrived in such a dramatic fashion.He gave a faint, mocking laugh. “How creative.”The woman slumped against his shoulder, soft and limp, as if she had no strength to fight back and could only let him do as he pleased.“You’re the woman my mother sent?”His voice was low and cold, without the slightest warmth, like a current moving beneath a sheet of ice.Alvina’s mind grew blurrier and sharper all at once.The drug was raging through her veins. Her vision began to lose focus, and all she could see were those pale eyes looking down at her from

Chapter 10

Sariel rushed into the bathroom, grabbed the showerhead, turned on the faucet, and let the cold water blast over his face several times.Only then did his chaotic thoughts gradually calm down.He had not been drugged directly, so the effects did not last long.His mind slowly cleared.When he thought back to how completely he had lost control just now, he shut his eyes, overwhelmed.He had gone mad.He must have been insane...The banging on the door continued.He temporarily pushed down his chaotic emotions, adjusted his breathing, and walked over to open the door.When the door opened, his assistant, Daniel Moore, was standing outside.Behind him was a large cardboard box.“What is it?”Sariel asked darkly.“Mr. Roland, this is what Madam Roland asked me to bring over. Should we... keep it or throw it out?”“What is it?”Sariel had not yet caught on.Daniel looked troubled. “It’s from Madam Roland. What else could it be...”Sariel immediately had a bad feeling. He casually pulled ope
