The loud beep of the ECG machine echoed by the bedside wakes Glenn up. His forehead creased in disturbance as his eyes took in his surroundings. An old machine, rusty chairs and beds, a ceiling adorned with dangling spider webs, a musty odour filling the roomWhere was he? When he tried to stand, his body was stiff and unresponsive. He tried to move his body, but it felt as if his body was completely paralyzed; he couldn't feel his legs and arms. ‘What's happening?''Why can't I move my body?' 'Where is everyone?''What is more, why am I being treated in such a terrible hospital? I'm one of the most powerful businessmen in Edgartown,’ He tried to analyse it in his mind. "Ugh..." he groaned, feeling an excruciating pain in his head when he attempted to uncover the reason why he ended up in that sad and helpless state hospital. That memory comes rushing into his mind. He had been on his way to work in Smith Corp when the steering wheel of his car became unresponsive as he acceler

That evening, wearing a shirt and khaki pants, Glenn entered John Steel’s residence carrying a large gift box that he handed to Amber. Of course, Amber's smile upon seeing the large gift he brought caught Glenn's attention; her demeanour changed not because of seeing Glenn, it did not escape his notice. "What's this?" Amber asked curiously. "You can open it later after I've left," replied Glenn. His in-laws had previously greeted him enthusiastically. Now the fake smiles of these money-minded individuals were painfully obvious to Glenn. These two were leeches back when he married Amber, constantly asking for financial support for their failing business. He couldn't refuse because after marrying Amber, they became his family. As Glenn was cutting his steak, the impatient expression on his father-in-law's face was reflected in his wine glass. "Yes, Sir?" Glenn inquired. "Ahem, is it true that you're solely heir of Smith Corp?" he initiated the conversation. "That's correct, Sir. I

She had just gotten crazy inspiration from Jason, but then Amber remembered that she was upset because she had been embarrassed by Glenn in front of the entire campus that day. How could she embarrass herself further by begging for the acceptance of that foolish man? The word 'foolish' she attributed to Glenn left her stunned. She thought about Glenn's appearance today, his way of speaking, body language, clothes, and strikingly different appearance. "Ugh... I don't know; it seems like that foolish man is now hard for me to control," Amber suddenly complained. Jason approached her and affectionately wrapped his arm around Amber's waist. "How could it be, baby... Isn't he so crazy about you like I do? I think he's acting that way to get your attention. He's playing hard to get," Jason instigated in her ear. After that, he gently blew into Amber's ear, arousing her, which made her immediately smirk mischievously and invite Jason to satisfy their desires. After fulfilling their de

Glenn grinned at Amber's confusion, convinced she was busy finding excuses to avoid him. He still remembers throughout their past marriage, Amber rarely consented to fulfilling his biological needs. Glenn had to coax her, treating her like a queen for a whole week, just to satisfy his desires for a maximum of twenty minutes. Even then, Amber would do it begrudgingly, almost as a formality. If Glenn took too long, Amber would fake a yawn and pretend to fall asleep. His self-esteem was deeply wounded by Amber's behaviour towards him. However, due to his immense love for her, he didn't make much of an issue out of it. For him, as long as his wife remained faithful, he considered her lack of appreciation because of his inability to make her happy. But the fatal accident that befell him reinstated his lost self-confidence. It revealed that the root of the problem wasn't with him but because his wife secretly had another man in her life.Remembering Amber's betrayal, Glenn's eyes sudde

"Ah, just leave them be, mate," Darren waved off, noticing Glenn's gaze.Darren then handed a can of beer to Glenn. "Thanks," Glenn said as he accepted it. They bantered before taking a sip."You didn't invite Amber?" Darren asked out of the blue, and Glenn just shook his head. Darren's eyes suddenly lit up."Thank goodness... It would've been chaos if she showed up," Darren sighed in relief.Darren gestured subtly towards Jason, the man still engrossed with the woman nearly twice his age.Seeing Darren's reaction to knowing about Amber and Jason's relationship, Glenn felt foolish. If he hadn't realised quickly, he would have continued displaying himself as Amber's lackey, and no one would have stepped up to inform him of his folly.But beyond that, Glenn also realised something new. Initially thinking that Darren would appreciate him bringing Amber, who seemed popular among guys, Glenn now understood a side of Amber that this particular person didn't favour.‘What else about Amber ha
