Katherine’s tone felt like a nail piercing straight into Justin’s ear, making him extremely uncomfortable. Yet, he remained calm and responded to her:“Katherine, how could you use that tone to talk to me?”“Why wouldn’t I? You go off with another woman and still have the nerve to say this and that to me?”Not asking about Julie’s condition, not asking about his own situation, but her words for him at this moment were only full of interrogation, interrogation, and more interrogation.Justin bent down to look at Julie, who was exhausted and closed her eyes dreamily, then looked at his hands, tightly wrapped in bandages, feeling absurd.“Katherine, watch your words. Don’t let blind jealousy cloud your judgment. Who gave you the right to smear others like that?”“Justin, and you’re still playing the victim now? You like playing the victim so much? Yes, I’m not as pretty as that woman. I’m not as rich as her either. But one thing I will never do is steal someone else’s husband!”Katherine
Mr. Thomas and Ms. Laura could not believe what they had just heard. Even Laura felt that someone like Justin would never commit adultery and do such morally depraved things.But the passing thought of Justin is thinking about something else, which is her benefit. Mrs. Laura bit her nails. She hadn’t even had time to get any money from Justin and now he was in love with someone else? Impossible!At this time, Mrs. Laura looked at Katherine sitting on the sofa and panted like a teapot boiling so hard that it seemed like it was about to explode on the stove. She immediately approached and spoke sweetly to Katherine.“What exactly are things like? But where is Julie? The baby is doing okay.”Mrs. Laura cares about Julie. She believes that as long as Julie is still alive, the bond between Justin and Katherine cannot be broken.“She was with Monica the other day. He said she would get better care there.”“But overall she’s okay, right?” Mr. Thomas asked again, and Katherine nodded, which m
Justin stood in Monica’s living room, his mind reeling with conflicting emotions. He knew that Katherine’s desire to see Julie was understandable, but he also couldn’t shake the feeling that Katherine was projecting all her malice on him along with Monica - who had helped him so much in solving the problem. Save Julie.Entering the house, Laura was even more overwhelmed with the wealth here. She assessed Monica was from a famous family that had been rich for many generations, because this house was quite old. She walked a little while touching something with a careless attitude, then turned to Monica and asked:“Is this expensive?”“This must be very expensive, right?”“Wow, if I sell the things in this house, I’ll probably be able to buy a few other houses.”At those times, Monica could only respond with a forced smile and a shy nod.When Katherine saw her mother like that, she lost face. She glared at her, making Laura understand and stop touching her.On Justin’s side now. After a
Physically and mentally exhausted, Justin slumped to the ground, his body weighed down by the events of the day. Mrs. Laura, with a sympathetic expression, knelt beside him, offering words of comfort and support as she tried to ease his burden.“I’m so sorry, Justin,” she whispered, her voice gentle and caring.“But please understand, Katherine, because her daughter’s abduction has left her emotionally unstable.”Justin nodded wearily, his gaze fixed on the floor as he tried to process everything that had happened. His mind raced with conflicting emotions, but amidst the chaos, one thought remained clear: he needed to find a way forward, for Julie’s sake and his own.After comforting him, Mrs. Laura hurried off to tend to Katherine. At that moment, a pair of worn-out shoes appeared before Justin, belonging to Mr. Thomas.“As a fellow man, I advise you... to divorce her, for your own well-being.”As Mr. Thomas attempted to console him, footsteps echoed down the hallway. Leona, with a h
“Nursing…”The word was like a death sentence for Snyder. He walked a few steps forward on his knees, moaning and begging.“Your Majesty, this is not possible.”But the King was now turning his attention to the task at hand, his mind racing with plans on how to bring Justin back.“Your Majesty, I beg you,” he pleaded, his voice filled with desperation. “Give me another chance. I swear I won’t let you down again. Let me get Justin back.”But the King’s expression remained stony and he calmly shook his head in refusal. “No, Snyder,” he declared, his voice firm. “I will not entrust such an important task to an incompetent person like you. Get out of my sight immediately!”Defeated and humiliated, Snyder bowed low to the king before sneaking out of the room, his mind ablaze with thoughts of revenge.Alone on the road, Snyder broods over his failure and harbors burning resentment toward Justin. With every passing moment, his hatred festers like a malignant tumor, eating away at him from th
Katherine kept drinking and was drunk without even realizing it.As for Laramie, he wasn’t drunk. He looked at Katherine in front of him, feeling that this girl, even when drunk, was adorable.Much more seductive.Laramie stood up and went to sit down next to Katherine. He placed his hand on her thigh, then gradually slid it inside.Katherine did not resist, she even leaned against his chest.“Mr. Laramie, I am exhausted, very sorry, and very resentful.” Katherine talked loudly.“I know. I understand what you’re going through, honey. So I’m trying to make it up to you.”Laramie replied yes. He looked around and saw that the restaurant was now empty, under the dim lights. Surely no one was paying attention to this side, he thought.He then pushed his hand deeper and into Katherine’s panties. A feeling of stimulation came from his fingertips, causing his body to quickly heat up, and certain parts also felt stimulated.But at this moment, Katherine suddenly pulled away.“I want to go to
In the peaceful atmosphere of her hotel room, Katherine felt as if she were standing before an insurmountable wall. Laramie’s eyes were looking at her, and she felt immense pressure and fear.Her hands unconsciously curled tightly around the blanket, waiting for the man’s reaction first.“You don’t have to explain,” Laramie said, her tone light and sincere. “What happened between us isn’t as important as you think. I just want you to understand that, no matter what happens, I’m still here, by your side.”Katherine looked into Laramie’s eyes, feeling what he said touched the bottom of her heart. In her vague and complicated world, every word he said was like glimmers of light, making her feel a little more secure.“Why do you care so much about me?” Katherine asked, surprise in her voice.“Because I love you,” Laramie answered firmly, but also as an oath. “Love at first sight, from the moment we met. You don’t need to explain or express anything. Just know that I will always be here, r
Even though Laramie is her husband, Kimmy doesn’t like him at all. In her eyes, he was the ugliest person in the world, short and thin, with a bony face, a broken nose and bulging eyes. His personality is also unpleasant. For Kimmy, no one would want a man like Laramie thrown on the street, but she did not expect that her discarded items would be a “piece of gold” to others.“Good afternoon, dear wife.” At this time, Laramie spoke up to greet Kimmy. He, as usual, approached and kissed his wife’s cheek. However, these actions are very mechanical, as if pre-programmed, with no emotion.“I’m back too early today.” Kimmy said with a bit of sarcasm in her voice.Laramie did not answer that statement, but quickly went upstairs.“I took a bath.” After speaking, he immediately left, not wanting to stay any longer. But at this very moment, Kimmy’s nostrils moved slightly. She smelled a strange smell, a woman’s smell, and this smell made her a little uncomfortable, unlike the perfume scents tha
