The Abandoned Wife Chapter 6 The Daughter Of Lucian Farwell

The Drunken Fairy was one of the best private restaurants in Horington.  Every dish served was exemplary, and the place only accepted the most high-profile clients.  Reservations also had to be made at least one month in advance.

Madilyn had managed to book a table yesterday using her connections.

The restaurant's interior was exquisite;  a screen separated every table, each room's entrance was made of wood, and the building didn't have a roof.  When night fell, the chandelier above gave off a very antique and quintessential vibe, and one would feel as though they were dining under the moonlight.

The small group made their way into the building and seated themselves at a corner table.

It wasn't long until the waitstaff arrived with their food.

Worried that the little girl would feel uncomfortable, Roxanne gave her all her attention, feeding her and wiping her mouth at every opportunity.

Archie and Benny sat next to them.  Seeing Estella indulge in the food melted their hearts, and they tried their best to peel as much shrimp as they could for her.

Estella never stopped chewing as she kept her focus on the growing pile of food before her.

The Abandoned Wife Chapter 7 An Eyesore

There were now only two people inside the room.

Lucian scanned his surroundings before his gaze fell on his daughter.

The little girl was still upset by Roxanne's sudden departure, so upon seeing her father, not only was she completely unafraid, but she even turned away with a huff.

A faint scowl appeared on Lucian's face.

Well aware that Estella was just as enigmatic and difficult to handle as her father was, this was a job for Lucian's assistant, Cayden.

“Are you okay, Ms. Estella?”

The little girl merely glanced at him before furiously turning away once more.

Cayden observed her.  Noticing that she was safe and sound, he sighed with relief and turned to report to his boss.

With narrowed eyes, Lucian turned to the woman beside his daughter.

Madilyn's chest tightened as she met his gaze, and she secretly squeezed her own hands to compose herself.

“Where's Roxanne?”

Lucian's expression darkened as he took a good look at Madilyn's face.

The Abandoned Wife Chapter 8 Not Giving Up

Seeing how restless their mother looked, Archie and Benny asked deliberately, “Who's Lucian, Mommy?  Why are we hiding from him?”

Roxanne slowly returned to her senses and stroked their heads, smiling as if everything was fine.  “He's no one important.  I just have a bit of a personal grudge against him.  I want you both to hide if you ever hear his name, okay?”

The two boys nodded.  “Okay, Mommy.”

After Roxanne looked away, they glanced at each other curiously.

What could've happened between Mommy and Daddy?  It all seems like a huge misunderstanding.

As Roxanne continued to ponder over what could be happening on Madilyn's side, the boys spoke again.

“Mommy, we left in such a rush back there.  If that guy becomes suspicious, he might check the surveillance cameras and find us easily,” Archie reminded.

The woman tensed up instantly.  “Oh, God.  I totally forgot!  What do I do?”

I was so focused on running away that I forgot about the cameras!  Lucian might already be here.

I can't stay here.  I have to take the kids home right now.

Seeing the way their mother reacted made the boys turn away to conceal their smiles, and they only consoled her after they had suppressed the smiles on their lips.

Chapter 1 Betrayal

"Dad, Mom, Ashley, thank you for attending our engagement ceremony.  Raymond and I are so happy that you're here with us.  May I propose a toast everyone?  For the start of our new life, for love, and for the family!  Cheers!" the endearing girl proposed as she raised her glass with a beaming smile.

Wearing a flowing white off-the-shoulder, knee-length satin dress, the angel-faced woman was basking in infinite happiness.  With a calm and contented expression, she was holding a man's arm intimately.

On the contrary, the man in white, tailored business suit, appeared to be uneasy.  Looking at him, one would know that he was not happy.  Instead of fixing his eyes on his radiant fiancee, he laid his eyes on a girl.  With a simple shove of his hand, he tried to withdraw his hand from his wife-to-be, but the latter tightened her grip.

"Raymond!"  The elegant middle-aged woman beside him called out his name casually, warning him to behave properly.  Her voice was filled with mirth and a tinge of displeasure.

The woman's voice pulled Raymond Luo back from his thoughts.  Holding on to his glass, he shifted his gaze from that girl to his fiancee reluctantly.

Chapter 1 The Three Alphas (Part 1)

A beautiful young woman, with her long blonde hair and skin as white as ivory, a fairy appearance in the darkest of the night.  She was running into the road, clinging for her dear life, a life that her own family had destroyed.  Her name is Skylark Bluedawn.  On her twentieth birthday, she needs to run away from her party after she hears her grandparents make a deal with a wicked man, the alpha of her werewolf society in the West.

Skylark Bluedawn is a werewolf, a werewolf who can’t transform but is the beautiful one of her kind.  She lives with her grandparents, Geoffrey, and Suzanna Bluedawn after losing her parents in a freak accident.

“Sky… Sky!  You can’t hide from me!  Just show yourself!”  The old Alpha screamed from the second floor of the mansion, with her grandparents behind him, looking desperate and terrified of the consequences later on.

Sky looks above her hiding place, praying that her rescuer will come as soon as possible, as she cries for her bad luck.  Never in her life, she would have thought that her loving grandparents were going to sell her into servitude to one of the ruthless Alpha in the western region.  What went wrong, Sky never knew, as both of them were such loving grandparents to her.

Being brought up in a wealthy environment, but a very sheltered one, Sky never complains about her life.  She was homeschooled and never had any interaction with her grandparents and the servants.  She looks into people who come and go from her mansion, but never have any interaction with any of them, except one man, a man who confessed to be the old friend of his father.

Chapter 1 MR. CEO

“Get out of my sight you incompetent thing!  Mr. Clark screamed, holding the broken pieces of his most expensive vase in his trembling hands.

The maid, Camille, stood far apart, shaking visibly and most importantly, waiting.  Waiting for the words that would determine her next line of action.

She had committed the most unforgivable act and she knew that Mr. Clark would never consider the fact that she had been the family maid for several months.

Then she remembered that Mr. Clark did not like to repeat himself, so she already knew her fate.

Taking one last glance at the fury in Mr. Clark's eyes, she scurried away holding back the tears in her eyes.

"I will consider the fact that you have served us for several months and that my kids love you.  But never forget that these are the only reasons you are still here.  One more strike and you are out!  Do I make myself clear, Camille?!"  Mr. Adrien warned, his bold voice resounding throughout the room.

Camille shivered a little, before answering.

"Ye…yes, sir Clark.  Thank you so much" she nodded, tracing the lines on her hands.

Mr. Clark was ruthless and she was lucky that the very few people that mattered to him loved her.

Chapter 1 First Meeting

Sophia's POV:

A long and deep sigh escaped through my lips as I checked my wristwatch for I don't know how many times.  I've been sitting inside the coffee shop for almost forty-five minutes, but I still can't see even a glimpse of the person who texted me yesterday.  Mr. Daniel Kelley, the CEO of Kelley International Corporation, my 'so-called' fiance and a husband to be three weeks from now.

He said he wants us to meet and to see me personally before they announce our engagement party next week.  I agreed, so I cancelled my first practice appointment just to meet him.

Maybe you're confused about the engagement party.  How can be two people get engaged without knowing each other, or without even seeing each other?  Well, this is just a contractual marriage, so to be intimate with each other is not necessary.  We only need to be in this marriage for one year and after that, we're going to go in our separate ways again.

"Ten minutes.  No, five minutes.  Five more minutes and if he still don't show up himself, I'm gonna leave and I won't also show myself until the engagement party."  I muttered lowly while roaming my eyes inside the restaurant.

Chapter 1 Unveiling Deceit

Briana was picking a gift for their three-year anniversary when she received Kiley’s text.

Briana was bombarded by more than a dozen photos.  Once she processed what she saw, her face drained of color in an instant.

While the photos varied, Maxim and Kiley appeared in each and every one of them.

In the pictures, they were seen hugging, kissing… What remained consistent was the affectionate gaze Maxim directed toward Kiley in those images.

Despite spending three years by Maxim’s side, he had never regarded Briana with the same look.

“Does this look familiar to you?”

Briana felt a headache starting to emerge and instinctively massaged her temple.  The house in the pictures did seem recognizable.  However, before Briana could draw a conclusion, she received another message from Kiley.

“This is the house you are supposed to live in after you married Maxim.  Don’t you recognize it?

“Oops… I almost forgot.  Maxim never allowed you to enter it after your wedding night.  Do you know why?

“Because Maxim had decorated this house for me.  If Norma didn’t butt in on your wedding day, you would never have the chance to enter this house.”

Every word was a stab to Briana’s heart.  Briana’s hand started trembling subconsciously as she read the text.

She found a secluded spot to stand, looking at the tree in front of her, which already had buds.

She crossed her arms, seeming weak, but emanating a stubborn indifference

She had a very beautiful face, her exquisite features rarely showing much emotion, but this didn’t affect her charm, her delicate skin lonely, and also uniquely attractive.

She took a deep breath.  Her mood just slightly became better when someone stood in front of her.

Keira held a steaming thermos cup, her long, curly hair draped over her shoulders.  She had bright eyes and white teeth.  There was a man’s uniform jacket draped over her body

Looking at Chloe’s indifferent and beautiful face, her proud temperament made Keira very jealous.

Chapter 1 A Special Birthday Gift

"Are you even a legal adult?"

Under the influence of the drug, Madeline Powell answered with the last bit of reason she had, "Of course!  I've just turned eighteen today!"

"And you decided to prostitute yourself as soon as you came of age, huh?  Are you so short of money?  Or you just can't wait to have sex with men?"

The man touched her chin with his long fingers and lifted it as if inspecting a newly acquired possession.

His rough fingers caressed Madeline's face gently until he suddenly pinched her chin hard and forced her to look into his eyes.  Her cheeks were slightly flushed due to the drug's effect, a silent invitation for the man.  Her faint fragrance lingered in his nose, making his member hard and throb between his legs.

Yet, high-level predators were known to be patient instead of rushing things.  Thus, the man's fingers first moved past her slip dress to meet her already wet vagina.  Madeline screamed at his sudden intrusion.  Before she could retreat, his lips went down on hers, and she unconsciously clamped her thighs.
