Chapter Seventy-NineBella didn’t think much of it because Levi's personality had always been erratic, and what she said wasn’t wrong. Whatever their relationship was, Levi might forget, but she wasn’t allowed to.No matter how good Bella's mood was, she was currently very tired after the flight and wanted to eat quickly and go to sleep."Stop being childish, I don't want to create more trouble for myself." Bella sighed, her tone and demeanor expressing exhaustion as if she wanted to quickly drive Levi away.It was precisely this attitude of Bella's that once again irritated Levi, but listening to others was not his thing. He opened the pizza box without hesitation and took a slice, looking at Bella provocatively."I understand your concern, but unfortunately, I don't feel like leaving right now. Besides, I haven't done anything to you. I can still sit here as your husband's friend. Or are you worried because you're thinking of something inappropriate?" Levi smirked provocatively.Lev
Chapter EightyBella shuddered slightly and immediately became silent, not daring to struggle or make any noise. But this made her even more scared. The sound of Max’s footsteps outside grew closer, making Bella’s heart race.However, it seemed Max didn’t notice anything unusual. He slowly walked into the kitchen to get a drink of water. After a few minutes in the kitchen, Max went back to his room without realizing another man was in the house.Only when they heard Max’s door close did Bella dare to breathe a sigh of relief, feeling as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her shoulders.As soon as Levi let her go, Bella immediately pushed him away. His recent actions and words made her extremely dissatisfied and uncomfortable. If it weren’t for Max being half-asleep and simply wanting to go to the kitchen for a drink of water, they would have surely been discovered in a shady position.The recent incident terrified Bella, and for the first time, she felt extreme discomfort and diss
Chapter Eighty-OneMax looked at Pearl with a doubtful gaze. Did Pearl really not want to harm Bella? Was it all just for the plan? Max, of course, knew what Pearl was thinking. The two of them had been together from having nothing until now, so they understood each other very well."Why are you looking at me like that?" Pearl felt extremely uncomfortable when she saw Max looking at her that way, as if in his eyes she was a very evil person.Pearl acted innocent, while massaging Max, she said, "I know what you're thinking, Max. But we both know that Bella is different now. She doesn't even care about or pay attention to you anymore. Do you really think that after she gets pregnant with your child, she will love you as she used to? We've all seen Bella's change. I don't want to make you sad, but... it seems Bella doesn't love you as much as she used to...""That's right..." Max responded as if mesmerized by her words. Pearl was too correct, so Max couldn't deny it. More than anyone els
Chapter Eighty-TwoReturning to work, Bella felt much more at ease, though she often found herself pondering Levi's words from that night. Levi's words weren't difficult to understand, but what confused her was his gradually changing attitude. The thing was, Bella couldn't determine in which direction his attitude was shifting.Bella thought she should be the one feeling anxious and urgent, not Levi. This was why she couldn't grasp Levi's behavior. Whenever she thought about it, she wondered if Levi was perhaps misunderstanding their relationship.Bringing those thoughts and feelings home, Bella didn't expect Max to already be there since she thought she had returned early. Thinking about how Max didn't discover what happened the previous night, Bella's face flushed with a mix of embarrassment and anxiety, but she quickly regained her composure.“Why are you home early today?” Bella asked, trying to sound casual.Bella arrived just as Max was finishing cooking dinner. Seeing her, he c
Chapter Eighty-ThreeAs soon as Max finished speaking, he immediately stepped into the living room. Although this wasn't his first time visiting his father-in-law's mansion, each visit always brought an invisible pressure that tightly bound him.“Father, we’re here.” Max gently knocked on the door.Mr. James, who was reading a document, looked up with an expressionless face. He glanced at Max, “You came alone? Where’s Bella?”“Here I am!” Bella cheerfully walked in, quickly choosing a seat next to her father and handed him a prepared gift box. “Dad, look at this, it’s the high-grade tea that you really like. I went through a lot of trouble to get it.”In contrast to his reaction to Max, Mr. James beamed with joy upon seeing his daughter, his face bright with happiness. Max, trying to appear cheerful, sat down opposite them. Despite being married to Bella for four years, in his father-in-law’s eyes, he was still an outsider.“Father, why did you call Bella and me here?” Max didn't want
Chapter One"Darling, the 15th of next month marks our three-year wedding anniversary. What do you think about going on a trip?" Bella couldn't hide the happiness that was clearly displayed on her beautiful face. Three years ago, they had a grand and magnificent wedding, and ever since, Max had treated her like a princess.Max smiled and kissed Bella's lips, but he shook his head. "I'm sorry, honey. I have an important business trip next month, so I won't be able to go on a trip with you. You're not mad at me, are you?"Bella understood that Max's work and career were very important to him, so she didn't want to be a demanding and ignorant woman. They would be together for the rest of their lives, so if they couldn't go on a trip this year, they could go next year.Max knew that Bella would understand, so he couldn't hold back his emotions and hugged her tightly. After a sweet farewell between the two spouses, Max had to go to the company.Max and Bella met at a product launch party f
Chapter TwoIn the office, the lustful moans did not stop, the two were so intense that they didn't even notice that their crime was seen by Bella, the door was open without them knowing...“Hmmm… so good… so deep baby. Max… Max… I love you… ha… ummm…” Pearl let out sweet, seductive moans.“I love you too, honey…” Max kissed her plump lips like a hungry animal.Their 'war' is not over, as they continue their passionate affair in the private bathroom of their office like wild animals."Max, when will you finally divorce her? It's been three years, I don't want to continue like this anymore," Pearl sat discontentedly on Max's lap, showing her frustration and being coy with him.Max couldn't resist her temptation, as he lovingly caressed Pearl's slender waist."I also want to divorce Bella quickly, but you know that her father is the chairman of this company, and the position I have is also thanks to him. If I divorce her, I will have to leave with nothing," Max said with a sigh, as he h
Chapter Three"What's bothering you, beautiful lady? May I have the honor of listening?" The man said.Bella tilted her head to look at the unfamiliar man beside her, she had never met him before Bella was also in need of someone to confide in."Yes, I have something on my mind... My... husband, we've been married for three years, and... my closest friend, they both betrayed me at the same time...""That's awful, what did they do?" The man took a sip of his drink and asked.Bella continued, "Well, they had an affair behind my back, it must have been going on for a long time but I... I had no idea...""Oh... so I've been... I've been happy and joking with those wretched people all this time... do you think I'm stupid?" Bella turned to the man, her eyes pleading for an answer.The man didn't answer Bella's question, instead, he asked her, "Do you want revenge? I can help you with that.""Revenge? How?" Bella looked puzzled at the stranger's offer of "help."The man laughed when he saw B
