Mom? She may have never seen her mom before but looking at the woman standing in the crowd, Lenora's gut instinct could tell that was her birth mother.Without thinking, her feet were already moving towards that direction. However, Mark presses his hands firmly against her shoulder while saying, "Ma'am, the automobile is this way...” He quickly let go when Lenora shot him a lethal gaze. By the time Lenora glanced into the crowd, her mom was nowhere to be seen. No! No no, wait! Don't go...Lenora was already running in that direction before the driver had the chance to stop her. “Ma'am, no!” he tried to run after her but in the end, Lenora got lost amongst the sea of people at the park making Mark curse. He ran a frustrated finger through his hair while dipping his hands into his pocket to phone Preston. Unfortunately, even after dialling Preston's number several times, there was no response. It wasn't on purpose since Preston was busy handling some issues to handle at that poi
“Young Master, it's bad!” exclaimed Arius as he rushed in.Arius ran in, "Young Master, it's horrible!" he shouted.A phone was resting on Preston's head while he was lying on a recliner. He spins on the chair ever so slowly, casting Arius a chilling, dangerous glance that reads, "I loathe being disturbed during conference sessions."He stopped the call and turned his frigid stare back to it before crossing his arms. “This had better be significant.”According to the information I received, "Young Miss Hydeia and Little Miss Inari just arrived in Harithon."Preston's stunning face was expressionless. Arius would have thought he was unaffected by the news if not for the little twitch on his lips.The young and little miss, in question here are Preston's sisters. And to say they are a handful most times will be an understatement. It's not a coincidence because they popped up in Harithon. They could have heard that Preston was going to be here, which is why they showed up. They are sim
There!Preston pondered. This is the snarky, impolite, and haughty Lenora that everyone has been talking about. That he had never before seen this side of her astonished him. Seems like it only comes out when she is among strangers.“What? You're dumb?” she yelled, gazing impatiently at the door and mentally swearing when she observed how dark it was outside.Although she doesn't like her husband, she couldn't help but worry about him. He must be going crazy searching for her now. How could she have forgotten about him?She gave the elegant man a frigid stare as a result of the notion. She would have drooled at his attractiveness under different circumstances, but right now... “Speak! Who requested that you release me on bail? What do you want, exactly? You can give me your number, I'll contact you soon.”With that said, she strutted around him in an attempt to leave.Preston was left stunned by her actions. Right! She doesn't know who I am, what was I thinking?He caught her hand jus
“Hello, Miss, Gonzalez.”“Humph! And you think I'll pay you the money? It's been a week since I gave you that task! Tell your boss I don't work with worthless people.” a shrill voice that belonged to none other than Lucinda rang out. She's been tensed for the whole week, anticipating meeting Lenora's fiancee. She couldn't wait to wipe that smug look off Lenora's face when she pay off that beggar. In truth, Lucinda had already imagined how everything would play out; all that was needed now was for the goons to deliver Preston.A trembling voice was soon heard from the other side of the phone. “Y-you can't, we've captured him already!”Freezing, Lucinda blinked as his words sank in. “What? Then what are you waiting for?? Send me the location, I'll meet you soon.” She was already at the door even before she hung up. She was so giddy at the thought of meeting Preston that she forgot to take any guards with her.After thirty minutes!Lucinda was welcomed by the leader of the thugs, she
“Woah, woah. Calm down, okay?” As he struggled to make sense of what was going on, Preston pinched the space in between his brows. His eyes gleamed with excitement as it only took him a few seconds to realize it.With a little smirk on his lips, he started walking in her direction.Lenora anticipated him to fumble or make excuses, but when he finally stopped in front of her, he did something unexpected.Lenora squealed as he lifted her and carried her on his shoulders. “Why are you doing that? Put me down!" yelled Lenora as she pounded at his back.Hmm, who knew Preston is this powerful? The thought filtered into her mind.She puffed her cheeks quickly, furious at herself for thinking those things, and proceeded to pound at his back, “I said put me down!”Nevertheless, Preston disregarded her and effortlessly took her to the European-styled master's bedroom and dumped her on the bed. Gasping, Lenora tried to push out the long dark locks that had covered her face but before she finish
In Sixth Dragon Penthouse!Preston was seated in the armchair, a smirk flickering over his lips. She must have noticed it by now, I suppose.He completely forgot that there were other people in the study because he was so preoccupied thinking about the frustrated expression on his sweet wife's face."Young Master," Arius said after clearing his voice.Immediately, Preston's focus was brought back to what the investigator he hired was saying.“You really mean you can't find them?” They shivered and were unable to look him in the eye as his harsh voice echoed out in the room, "I paid you both money to find just two innocent females and you can't do your jobs?”Arius's lips, however, couldn't help but twitch. Harmless? Although he would readily acknowledge it, Preston's sisters are cute but harmless? Nope. They are nothing but a pain in the ass! Wouldn't it be simple to track them if they were as "harmless" as Preston claimed? One of them could give you a headache, but all of them toget
Inari watched Lenora flawlessly and expertly jump through the fence, while she stayed hidden at the place where Lenora asked her to. What a badass her sister-in-law is!And she totally loves it!After learning that a beggar was wed to a former socialite, she and her older sister came sniffing at Harithon.To say they were startled when they saw the 'beggar' in question would be an understatement. His eyes alone had caused them to be absolutely speechless!Stupefied even!No beggar would have eyes that colour, especially now that their sibling has been away for a while. So, he came here? The hotel they were staying at was unfortunately discovered by Preston's men. Hydeiya was captured by his troops, but she managed to escape and decided to carry on with their main mission. Lenora!Inari pulled out the sunnies to shield her eyes while a little smile played across her lips. Lenora might not be aware of who she is, but others probably could recognise her.She believes that one of the rea
Lenora attempted to flee, but he simply approached her and hugged her from behind. “My little wife.”Lenora started to gag as his garlic breath blew in her face.She wanted to push him off, but then when his hands touched her skin, a moan slipped out of her mouth. Her mind was screaming at her to stop, yet she still found herself rubbing up against his body as that seems to alleviate the heat somehow.She couldn't stop!Looking at the delicate woman, rubbing at him like a little kitten, Frederick Albert felt satisfied. He has been pursuing Lenora for a while, but due to her haughtiness, she has mercilessly rejected him.She ought to be grateful he agreed to take her in as his fifth wife now that her name has been tarnished by the entire country.Frederick felt his body heat up when Lenora's hands slipped into his shirt. He quickly cleared his throat and glanced over at Priscilla. After all, Priscilla was the one who made all these possible.“Oh, yes. I already prepared a room for you
