Fiona was crying alone when her phone rang, startling her. Aiden's name appeared on the screen, and she immediately answered.

"Hello, Fiona! What's wrong? Why are you calling me so much?" asked Aiden, surprised by Fiona's unusual behavior.

"Get to Dr. Vernon Stone's hospital right away! Billy's been in an accident!" Fiona said, her voice trembling with fear.

Aiden's eyes widened in disbelief. Billy was a skilled driver and always careful on the road, especially when driving his megacar.

"Don't joke, Fiona. Billy's a careful driver. Are you sure?" Aiden said.

"I'm not joking, Aiden. Get to the hospital now and tell Bryson too," Fiona said, her voice firm and convincing.

"Okay, I'm on my way," Aiden said before hanging up the phone.

Fiona released a long, weary sigh and settled into a chair in the hospital corridor. Retrieving her smartphone, she opened the photo album and gazed at their wedding picture. It had been a modest ceremony, devoid of grand celebrations due to Stephen's limited

    As Fiona watched her husband Stephen brush his hair in the mirror, she couldn't help but marvel at the beauty of his physique. It was as if she was seeing him for the first time, noticing the flawless posture and rippling muscles that he had always possessed. Today was Stephen's first day as an impromptu model, and Fiona was filled with a mix of excitement and apprehension."Are you sure you're feeling okay and ready for the photoshoot?" Fiona asked, her tone reflecting her concern.Stephen turned around to face his wife, his eyes sparkling with confidence. "Absolutely! Thanks to all the delicious and nutritious food you've been cooking for me, my stamina has come back tenfold."Fiona's heart swelled with pride at the compliment. She had always been passionate about cooking, and had even won several campus cooking championships, but hearing Stephen's praise was like winning the ultimate culinary accolade."Don't be ridiculous! You've been working at the restaurant for ages, and have ta

    "Come on, Stephen!" Keyla grabbed Stephen's hand, pulling him away from Arthur before he could cause any trouble.Stephen looked at Keyla with surprise and confusion. But, she only smiled and raised her eyebrows in apology and desperation for his help. Stephen turned to Arthur, who was glaring at him like an angry bull. Stephen realized Arthur was jealous because Keyla was with him. It's fun to see the guy mad. But, what if Fiona saw Stephen together with Keyla? She must be mad too.After Arthur was nowhere to be seen, Stephen released Keyla's hand, and she blushed with embarrassment. It was the first time a man had rejected her."I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be so reckless. But..." Keyla trailed off, looking back at Arthur as if to explain why she didn't want to be near him."It's fine this time," Stephen said with a dry smile.Keyla lingered, not wanting to leave Stephen's presence just yet. "So, do you want to have lunch with me?" she asked hopefully."I'm sorry, Keyla. I can't have

    After several days of being unconscious, Billy finally woke up from his coma, disoriented and confused. He slowly opened his eyes and saw the blurry faces of his family around him. His body felt heavy, and he could barely move, but he managed to give them a weak smile."Billy, thank goodness you've come to your senses! We were all worried about you!" said Aiden, the head of the Geoff family, with relief in his voice.Billy tried to remember what had happened, but his mind was foggy. All he could recall was the sound of metal crunching and the screeching of tires. And then, nothing.As his vision cleared, he noticed his family standing around him. He was grateful to see them all, but deep down, he was upset. His favorite luxury sports car had been badly damaged in the accident. He tried to hide his disappointment and put on a brave face."Thank you, without all of you I would have died!" Billy said, taking a deep breath."All this thanks to Fiona. Therefore you are saved from death," Br

    "Sorry, Fiona. I have come late to see Billy," Stephen apologized as he stood in front of Fiona. He was about to invite her into the Billy's room."Perhaps another time. I was hoping to have lunch. Would you like to join me?" Fiona suggested, hoping to avoid any tension that could arise from her being in the same room as Alex and Stephen."Okay," Stephen agreed without hesitation.Before they left, Stephen noticed Alex's annoyance at seeing Fiona with him. He decided to hold Fiona's hand, hoping to calm her. Stephen thought, feeling the warmth of Fiona's hand in his."Don't tell me you're taking Fiona to a roadside stall," Alex sneered, feeling angry that Stephen had taken her away from him."Bastard! Wait for my revenge!" Alex fumed inwardly.As they walked down the corridor holding hands, Stephen asked, "Where do you want to eat?""It's up to you," Fiona replied, not wanting to burden him with her favorite elite restaurant."Okay, then I'll choose," Stephen said.They hailed a taxi a

    Stephen's words brought a smile to Fiona's face. She had just realized that the blond man before her was wise. She ignored Juanita Mosley and continued her conversation with Stephen."Honey, what do you think of a man who legally robs his woman? Even though he already gets pleasure in bed, he still asks his woman to pay for his necessities of life!" Juanita's voice was clear to Fiona and Stephen.Juanita had assumed that Fiona would pay for a sumptuous lunch at the Magnificent Emarlad restaurant. Meanwhile, she considered Stephen a weak man who relied on his wife's wealth. The man in the black suit before Juanita smiled with authority. His handsomeness and charm captivated Juanita's heart, making her believe that she had found a better partner than Fiona."I think only bastards do stuff like that!" Fernando Avery said with a smug expression."You're right, honey! I'm grateful to have you! You're rich and handsome! It suits my fine taste!" Juanita glanced over at Fiona's table, but Fio

    "By the way, this lemon tart with meringue and raspberry coulis tastes really good!" Stephen said as he cut into the lemon tart and took a bite. “I agree. Even though it's not the most expensive dessert here, I always buy this tart when I have the opportunity to visit this place," Fiona smiled at Stephen, who was enjoying his dessert. While eating and chatting, Fiona secretly watched Stephen. Despite the fact that he was wearing his usual plain white t-shirt, he looked different in this Magnificent Emerald Emerald restaurant. Ever since he first came, the way he acted and ate his food was so classy, as if he were born into a wealthy family. "Oh my God! What are you thinking?" Fiona thought to herself. "Don't dream, Fiona! No rich man works as a beach cleaner or lives with his in-laws because he doesn't have enough money to rent a house." Fiona took a deep breath. Although she was disappointed because she knew her imagination couldn't come true, she was still happy because Stephen

    Stephen was surprised to see the serious look on Fiona's face. He had never seen her argue so boldly before. Likewise, Juanita clearly felt slapped by Fiona's words."Wow!" Stephen muttered, trying his best to hold back his laughter as Juanita's face turned red."Shut up! You're a sex-worshiping woman! Willing to give anything to a useless man for sex!" Juanita was annoyed and left Stephen's table for hers.The eyes of all the customers were fixed on Fiona, but she didn't care. In fact, Fiona and Stephen knew better than anyone else that they hadn't even had sex since their nine months of marriage.Juanita cursed angrily, "Bastard!"Arriving at her table, Juanita grabbed her cell phone and searched for Fernando's name. She called her boyfriend many times, but there was no answer at all.Annoyed, Juanita sighed as she leaned back in her chair, her gaze returning to Fiona and Stephen's table. Surprisingly, they both looked very happy while eating the lemon tart with meringue and raspberr

    Juanita's eyes were scanning the room in search of Fernando. Her heart raced with anticipation, but as the minutes passed, her hope began to dwindle. Suddenly, Stephen's voice broke through her thoughts, jolting her out of her reverie. At first, she was stunned by his audacious request, her mind trying to process what he had just said.A sense of anger and frustration began to boil inside her as she realized that Stephen was trying to humiliate her in front of Fiona. She had already been looking down on Stephen, and now he was trying to push her even further. But despite her growing rage, Juanita was determined not to give him the satisfaction."What the hell are you talking about?" Juanita burst out laughing, but her laughter was tinged with malice. Her eyes sparkled with mirth, but her tone was cruel."Fiona, your husband has a gift for comedy! He's hilarious!" Juanita continued laughing, mocking Stephen openly.Fiona, who had been oblivious to Stephen's plan, watched him with curios

    Inside the helicopter, Stephen peered at the bustling beach. From his vantage point, he could clearly see a restaurant next to the jet ski hangout spot.

That night was no exception.With full attention, Raymond, Vincent, Kaysen, and William paid attention to the presentation delivered by Oliver, the man who most often accompanied Stephen on various occasions.As the most senior man, William observed the behavior of every agent under him, including Alyssa. Several times, William noticed Alyssa paying attention to Raymond and not focusing on what Oliver was saying.Initially, William thought it was because Alyssa hadn't seen Raymond for a long time, but if it happened more than once, it meant something else was going on. Moreover, there was an unwritten rule that a

    Twelve months had passed since Falla's birth. Stephen invited Fiona and Falla to the recently completed Magnificent Emerald Park. After the park's inauguration, visitors increasingly enjoyed the free tourist spot. At that moment, Falla was in Fiona's arms, looking enthusiastic as they strolled through the beauty of the park. Fiona turned to her husband and said, "What if we go on the Ferris wheel?" Stephen looked up at the ferris wheel with the slowly rotating baskets. He thought for a moment, then said, "Alright. Let's go there." They walked together towards the Ferris wheel. However, suddenly Falla rebelled in Fiona's embrace and started crying. Fiona gently comforted her baby, "Falla, what's wrong? Are you scared of going on the Ferris wheel?" But Falla's cries didn't stop. Fiona tried to comfort Falla with a small doll she usually played with. But Falla continued to cry. Fiona thought maybe her baby was hungry, so she offered some boiled fruits and vegetables they had brought.

    However, admitting guilt meant nothing to Stephen. Regardless, Tristan's crime had caused a lot of damage, and opposing him had consumed much of Stephen's time and energy. Stephen had decided that Aiden still needed to face his punishment.In a low, pressing voice, Stephen said, "If you admit guilt, do you still deserve to be among us?"Aiden looked at Stephen, not surprised by Stephen's decision, but remorseful for his own foolishness and ill treatment of Stephen and Fiona all this time.Moreover, this was not the same Stephen that Aiden had once suppressed. After this, Aiden wouldn't be able to escape Stephen, even if he hid at the ends of the earth. Stephen would surely pursue him and find him. With a regretful expression, Aiden nodded in surrender and said, "No, I don't deserve to be here."With his cold gaze, Stephen continued to observe Aiden. He was curious about what else the man would say.Realizing his unwelcome presence in the luxurious room, Aiden rose from his seat. Since

Since Fiona remained silent, Stephen assumed Fiona deliberately allowed her two older brothers to punish themselves in front of the Southroses University students.Fiona's fists clenched tighter, and her facial expression suddenly changed when she said, "Stephen..." weakly.The handsome man approached Fiona, "What's wrong?" He wanted to know Fiona's plan regarding her brothers. But then, she gripped Stephen's arm tightly, her face pale.Oliver quickly took over the bouquet of flowers, chocolate bouquet, and frame from Fiona's hands. Unexpectedly, after that, Fiona's amniotic fluid broke, leaving Aiden and Billy silent, exchanging glances."Fiona!" Aiden stopped slapping his own face and approached Fiona.With a worried expression, he said to Stephen, "She's about to give birth! Take her to the hospital now!"Stephen looked down and found Fiona's calfs wet

    When the two individuals exchanged glances, it was as if the Earth had stopped rotating and time had ceased to move. Stephen gazed intently at the beautifully sad face. He had known about Keyla's feelings for a long time, and her expressions were not new to him.Gently, Stephen spoke, "Keyla."The supermodel's chest rose and fell as she struggled to contain the turmoil within, which seemed ready to burst. She was very afraid of what Stephen would say, but in reality, she continued to stand there, almost frozen in place.Looking directly at the supermodel, Stephen said, "I know how you feel, Keyla. But, you know I am already married, and soon I'll be a father?"The beautiful woman took a deep breath and nodded, "Yes, I understand." The supermodel turned back towards the door and left the luxurious room, tears streaming down her face. Although she already knew what Stephen would say, she still felt sad, and the tears couldn't be held back from flowing down her cheeks.Outside the room,

    Stephen, anoyed with the disrespectful behavior of Fabian Hudson's ex-girlfriends, spoke in a cold tone, "Quickly, tell me what you want in meeting the patriarch?"The women nudged each other in confusion at the unexpected presence of the patriarch. Their eyes exchanged clear expressions of anxiety, but their determination remained firm. Their visit to the Hudson family mansion had to yield results – they wanted to regain the privileges Fabian had once granted them.Since none of them dared to speak in front of the patriarch after openly admitting their mistakes, Stephen said coldly, "Damn it, I've wasted my time with a bunch of foolish women." He turned to the security guards and signaled them to escort Fabian Hudson's ex-girlfriends out.Several men dressed in all black with pistols and handcuffs approached the group of women who were starting to panic. Pressed, a bespectacled woman said, "Please stop this, Lord Stephen!"Seeing this initiative, the group of women quickly sought hel
