Chapter 1

When I got home, my son’s eight potential brides and the housekeeper’s son, Joshua Crowe, were all gathered in the middle of the living room.Quinn Jolliffe stood at the front, leaning against Joshua’s shoulder. Her loose dress could no longer hide her four-month baby bump.The other seven women stood on either side of Joshua. When they saw me walk through the door, they all straightened up.My son, Jensen Selway, sat alone in the corner of the couch, his eyes bloodshot and his expression grim.I hurried toward Jensen, but Quinn stepped forward and blocked my way.“Dad, please don’t blame Jensen. I was the one who rejected him. I’m pregnant with Joshua’s child, and he’s the one I love, so I won’t marry Jensen.”Mandy Hewitt supported Quinn by the arm.“That’s right. The seven of us have thought this through. Joshua is the man we all love.“Quinn just happened to be the first to get pregnant with his child. We won’t fight her over her place. From now on, we’ll all take care of J

Early the next morning, I had barely pushed open the conference room door when I saw all eight women sitting in their seats.Quinn sat with her legs crossed, twirling my signature pen between her fingers.When Mandy and Naomi saw me walk in, they even exchanged smug glances.Apparently, not one of them believed I would actually fire them.Quinn stood up and pulled out the chair at the head of the table for me.“Dad, you’ve had all night to cool off, so you should be over your anger by now. As long as you accept Joshua, we can pretend yesterday never happened.”I did not take the seat. Instead, I pushed eight termination notices across the table.“Effective immediately, all eight of you are terminated from your positions at Selway Group.”Quinn’s hand froze on the chair back.Meanwhile, Mandy picked up the paperwork and flipped through two pages. When she looked up at me, her smile was gone.“Dad, this joke has gone too far.”Naomi pushed the paperwork back toward me.“You’r

I went to Fitzpatrick Group by myself.Lionel Fitzpatrick, the chairman, shook my hand and assured me, “Fitzpatrick Group is partnering with Selway Group, not Quinn Jolliffe.”The contract for the project Quinn had held onto for three months, intending to use it as leverage against me, was successfully signed that very evening.After the person in charge was replaced, the finance department went back through the old accounts. As soon as they looked into the three suppliers managed by Joshua’s uncle, the numbers stopped adding up.The audit department worked through the night, tracing the money trail. More than six million dollars in kickbacks over the past two years all led back to Quinn.I had the legal department seal the evidence and told Blake to continue recovering the Selway family assets registered in the names of all eight women.When I returned to the mansion that evening, a set of car keys landed at my feet.“Dad, you’ve gone too far!”Quinn stood in the middle of the

Jensen got along with the Fitzpatrick family’s youngest daughter, Serena, even better than I expected.“Dad, Serena is teaching me how to read financial reports!”Jensen had tried bringing company documents to Quinn before, but she would only respond impatiently. “You’re not in good health and not very bright. You don’t need to concern yourself with such things. The eight of us will take care of Selway Group from now on. All you have to do is sit back and enjoy your life.”Serena, however, set aside two hours every day to go over financial reports with Jensen, and his project analyses became more and more impressive.When Jensen called me to say he was planning to get married, he spent a long while blushing and hesitating before finally telling me that Serena was nearly three months pregnant.I held the phone and laughed for quite a while, then had my staff begin preparing for the wedding.Meanwhile, Quinn and the others were still waiting for me to back down.When the eight o

Quinn stared at Jensen, a pleading look flickering in her eyes.“Jensen, you said you’d never marry anyone but me. How could you have another woman carry your child?”Jensen yanked his hand free from hers and asked coldly, “Didn’t you say I was the only one you’d ever love? Yet you’re having another man’s child!”A flicker of emotion crossed Quinn’s eyes, and she instinctively reached for Jensen. But Serena stepped out from behind Jensen, grabbed Quinn by the wrist, and roughly shoved her away.Quinn staggered a few steps before regaining her balance, her eyes fixed on Serena’s lower belly.“Is that really your child?”Jensen tightened his hold on Serena’s arm but said nothing.Quinn’s expression slowly darkened as she stared at their intertwined hands. She clenched her teeth and sneered.“Fine. You’d even have a child with another woman just to spite me. Call off the wedding today and have Serena get rid of the baby, and I’ll overlook the fact that you slept with her.”Jensen

Selway Group quickly issued risk notices to its business partners, and all personnel violations, improper transfers of benefits, and confidentiality issues involving the eight women during their time at the company were also placed under investigation.Quinn went to several companies in the same industry looking for work, but after reviewing her employment history, not a single one was willing to hire her.As for Mandy, she found a job at a logistics company, but after only two days, Selway Group’s legal department warned them that she was bound by a non-compete agreement, leaving them no choice but to fire her.The eight women completely lost the lives they once knew.Mandy took what little money she had left to a hospital to ask about reversing her sterilization. The doctor said they could attempt the procedure, but no one could guarantee she would regain her ability to have children.She returned to their rented apartment with the medical report and slammed it down in front of

I did not open the gate.Quinn waited outside for more than half an hour with Ella in her arms. The infant cried nonstop, and Quinn’s voice grew hoarser by the minute.“Dad, I’m your daughter, and she’s your granddaughter. You have enough money to support so many people. What’s one more child for you to support?”I told Anton to open the gate.Quinn’s eyes lit up when she saw me come out, and she immediately wheeled herself toward the house, but I blocked the entrance.“Quinn, who told you I ever adopted you?”Her hands froze on the wheelchair, and her brows furrowed.“Dad, what do you mean?”I held out the orphanage records from all those years ago.“The eight of you were placed in long-term foster care and received sponsorship. You were never legally adopted. You remained legally registered with the welfare institution the entire time, so legally speaking, I was never your father.”The color drained from Quinn’s face. She snatched the documents from me and flipped through t

Jensen raised his hand and slapped Quinn hard across the face.“Who do you think you are, thinking you could still marry me?”The slap sent Quinn’s head snapping to the side, and Ella burst into tears in her arms. Quinn covered her cheek and stared at him in stunned disbelief.Jensen’s eyes reddened as he glared at her.“Quinn, have you always thought me that pathetic? Do you really believe I’d forgive you for abandoning me, for stealing from me, and even for having a child with Joshua?”Quinn parted her lips. “Jensen, I just used to think—”“Shut up!”Jensen wiped away his tears, his voice growing colder with every word.“You even asked me to be your side piece right in front of my dad. What right do you have to stand in front of me now?”Quinn shuffled closer on the ground, her eyes still red with tears.“Jensen, I really messed up. I used to think you’d never leave me, that no matter what I did, you’d always be there waiting for me.”Jensen avoided her outstretched hand a
