Third-person perspective.
Early in the morning, Howard was summoned to Ismail's office.When passing by the secretary's office, Howard couldn't help channeling his inner Don Juan, whispering in the secretary's ear, "Baby doll, do you know why the Alpha wanted to see me?"The secretary glared at him, her gaze thick with distaste. "You might want to watch your behavior, Director Howard.""Well, you need to stop acting so uptight, missy." Not having got his way, Howard rolled his eyes and wondered why all the female secretaries were behaving like zombies. They knew next to nothing about the art of flirting. Compared to the female employees under him, they really were far inferior."Director Howard, please come in." The secretary made an inviting gesture, but there was still no expression on her face.Not counting how much she hated this immensely nepotistic man who had relied on Ismail's uncle-in-law to get the position, even if the uncle-in-law himself waLillian's perspective.The dinner party was held at a famous hotel in the city. By the time we arrived, almost all the guests were already there.Mayor Ryan was so delighted to see Ismail that he couldn't stop grinning. After greeting us like the good host that he was, he let the waiter welcome us into the hall.A wave of uneasiness washed over me as soon as I stepped into the venue. The Nash family was also one of the most prestigious families in the city, and Kayden had to be on the guest list. What if, God forbid, I bumped into him later?I looked around, but fortunately I didn't see him.Instead, I saw my father and stepmother, who had also met my eyes and were sauntering toward me.I really didn't want to see them again. But life threw me a curveball, and I had no choice but to grab life by the balls.Well, well, the two of them were very polite in front of Ismail. So wide was their smile that their eyes were hidden under their bulging cheeks.
Third, it was called an perspective.Lily An had just revealed her face in the banquet, but she was gone. Most of the guests did not see her.In this way, the men and women in the banquet began to discuss again in twos and threes. They were all curious about why, despite having already married a woman, they did not see his wife attend the banquet together.There were even some women who guessed the possibility and wondered if their new wife was still alive, or if she had not survived as the rumors said.It wasn't that they didn't feel anything about other people's comments, but they just disdained to respond.Gradually, Duke Ryan had a feeling that although he was dissatisfied with this kind of criticism, it was hard for him to say anything. After thinking about it for a while, he finally came up with a solution.When he was on stage, he thanked the couple and invited them to the stage to cut the cake with him.The audience burst into thunderous ap
Third, it was called an perspective.There was a flash of surprise in her eyes. Xiaoyu was dead? How could it be?A few days ago in City Y, he also heard her telling him with excitement that Xiaoyu's operation was very successful and there would not be any sequelae.He didn't pay much attention to the child, but he knew that Lily An had always treated him as his younger brother. Was this why she cried so sadly?"I shouldn't have suggested that he perform the operation. I killed him..." Lily could not help but complain to him, knowing that he was not in the mood to care about Xiaoyu. After all, he was the only person who stood beside her tonight. There was no one else who could make her cry except him."So you left me alone at the banquet, regardless of the fact that you're attending?" The man's hand was still on her arm. Although his tone was a little gentle, it was still full of displeasure.Lily stopped crying and lowered her head to let him teach her
Third, it was called an perspective.She had always been used to being overbearing and had never been resisted like this before. She could not help feeling unhappy, and her desire to conquer her grew stronger.Moreover, things had developed to this point. If he suddenly compromised, what dignity would he have in front of this woman in the future?"Are you going to eat or not?""I really can't eat it..." Lily was about to cry, because she knew the details of the situation. As long as it was something he decided to do, no one could change it. If she continued to resist, she would only provoke him.As she had expected, the glass of water in her hand was on the table next to hers. She grabbed Lily's arm and pulled her hard. Lily was instantly pulled into his arms.He lifted his hand and pinched her lower jaw. He forced her mouth open and stuffed the pill into her mouth with his other hand.Lily was forced to open and close her mouth. She felt that the
Lillian's POV"Lillian, you've got to help your sister out and marry in her place." My father's tired, pleading voice rang through my mind. I opened my eyes and surveyed the room I was in. Today was my wedding day to Ismail. But there was no ceremony nor blessings – just a ring and no sign of the groom. In the afternoon, after a fleet of cars from the Amus family picked me up, I was brought to this luxurious bedroom. The room was dimly lit, with an eerie atmosphere that made me feel like I was in a dream. I sat at the bedside alone. I never expected my wedding to turn out like this; it was so different from what I had envisioned.But what made me more anxious was the wedding night ahead.After all, rumor had it that six previous mates of Ismail were dead. My fear began to cripple me at this moment. Looking around the room again, I still couldn't shake the feeling of unease. Despite the grand decor and luxurious furnishings, there was a strange energy that permeated the air. Ev
Lillian's POVI couldn't see Ismail's face clearly, but I could feel his hand on my jaw was icy cold, causing me to shiver involuntarily. Was this the normal body temperature of a person? He said if I was the cure to his illness, but I was completely clueless. I didn't dare to simply to make up an answer, so I just kept quiet. Unfortunately, my silence only worsened his disposition toward me; he continued to tower over me. With a disdainful sneer, he remarked, "You're already in my bed, so put away your tricks."What tricks? What was he talking about? I was dumbstruck by his remark. Before I could even react, I heard his breathing become heavier. He suddenly leaned forward and pressed on my shoulders. Without warning, he then began to undress me. His movements were quick and precise. His voice carried a deep, almost menacing tone, "Let's see if you really have what it takes to cure me!" It was pitch black, and I could barely make out his face, but the intensity of his gaze bo
Lillian's POV"Really?!" My face turned pale, and I couldn't believe it. "But I heard that Ismail's wolf had disappeared?""I'm positive about it. You know how rumors can be unreliable. Ismail's wolf is real, but its scent is oddly weak and unstable for some reason.""Maybe it's because Ismail is sick." My gaze involuntarily turned to him.He looked rather ill, in fact. It would be strange that the wolf in his body was stable.But I didn't have any extra energy to care about anything else at this moment. I tried to calm my breathing slowly. After a while, the air was filled with a subtle scent of metallic tang.Instantly, I turned to look at Ismail, who was still lying on the floor. From my position, I could only see his broad back. He was still shaking, but had stopped mumbling after releasing me. I assumed he had bitten his own lip too hard, causing it to bleed and the scent of iron to fill the air.If he continued like this, he might be in danger.Realizing this, I used all my s
Lillian's POVThe two alert young servants quickly grabbed my hand, attempting to take the ring off my ring finger."Hey! What are you doing?" I protested and shouted in anger as I struggled to free myself.The Queen gazed at me expressionlessly and said, "You have already entered the Amus family and have seen my son's illness. Therefore, you can never return to the Rosenburg family.""What do you mean? What are you going to do with me?" I stared at her in fear.I saw Ismail's illness? Did she mean the way he looked when he was sick the previous night? But the bedroom was pitch black, and I didn't see anything!"Right now, you have two options. First, choose something from this tray to end your own life." The Queen beckoned, and a maid came in carrying a tray. To my horror, I saw a gun, sleeping pills, and a fruit knife on the tray.I instinctively stepped back and asked, "What's the second option?""The second option is to go to the airport tomorrow morning. Someone will take you to
