Yvonne had believed that Zachary would protect her, but now her pregnancy had been exposed online.She was now being portrayed as the mistress who had used her pregnancy to displace the rightful wife. Yvonne felt wronged. How could the public blame her for being the mistress when Lexi was already with another man?If it weren't for the fact that Mr. Quall was not someone to be trifled with, she would have already uploaded the hotel footage online. Everyone would know that Lexi had been with a man before her divorce.Yvonne only dared think about it because she orchestrated the whole situation with Lexi. She was also afraid of being found out.…Yvonne went to the Jenkins Corporation to see Zachary. "Zach, it must be Lexi who exposed my pregnancy to clear her name," she said.Zachary paused his work. The recent projects at the company had not gone well, and he knew someone was pushing things in this direction behind the scenes.That person was likely Claude.On top of that,

In the past, Sandra would punish Lexi the moment Eugenie cried. Sandra was so furious that her chest hurt. "Have you gone mad, Lexi? What the hell did you come here for?" Lexi turned her head to look at her with a smile. "I'm still of sound mind, Mom. I have not forgotten about that rumor from the Lindts that spread on the internet a while back." Sandra knew about this, too. She felt very embarrassed at the time, and she wished no one would find out that Lexi was her daughter. "This has nothing to do with your younger sister. Genny is not the type who would spread rumors behind people's backs. You should know those relatives from the Lindt family very well. What do the rumors they spread have to do with Genny?"Plus, aren't you fine right now? The online news will be forgotten in a few days. No one will remember it." Sandra said those words as if they were a matter of fact. Lexi couldn't help but laugh. Sandra's face fell when she saw Lexi laughing. "Lexi Loyle." "Mom, p

This road was quiet and had no traffic. Claude drove himself that day. He maneuvered the steering wheel with one hand while he rested his other arm on the side of his car window. He accelerated slowly. He could feel the wind blowing from outside the car onto his face.He looked frigid. For some reason, he felt upset. What could he do? The image of the woman on the carousel horse embracing the elegant man kept replaying in his mind. He stopped his car at the entrance to Dream Club. He tossed his key to the valet and walked straight in. Dream Club wasn't open for business as it was still during the day. Jason had just rushed over from seeing a woman. When he arrived, Claude was sitting with his legs spread and a cigarette between his fingers. He was watching some male entertainers performing on stage.Claude was the only man in front of the stage, which blew Jason's mind. "You came to watch a male revue instead of a female strip show? Are you alright?" Claude turned

"I'm waiting for you downstairs," said Claude."No. I'm busy," replied Lexi"I will hang your piglet underwear at the front gate."Lexi fell silent. Even she had to admit that it was a pretty impressive move."Remember to go out and get it."He hung up after saying that. Lexi hesitated for a moment. Claude really was the kind of person who would do something like that.She was worried that the next morning, people would see a pair of underwear with small piglets on it hanging on her door.She would be utterly humiliated if that happened.She figured that he was probably downstairs and not at the gate.Lexi hesitated. Claude was actually standing in front of Lexi's door.He was like a hunter waiting for his prey to open the door.Claude was there to clarify something. He wanted to know if she was really going to accept that man's marriage proposal.He heard the door open. Lexi opened the door and saw Claude standing in the doorway.The two of them stared at each other i

Lexi finally spoke up in a hoarse voice, "Wait. What are you bringing your luggage over here for?"Claude told the person on the other end of the call to hold on while he walked into the living room from the balcony. "A couple should live together, no?"He spoke in an extremely matter-of-fact tone.Lexi looked confused.She wondered who came up with that rule.Claude wasn't planning to go along with what she wanted. They were now a couple, after all.He refused to live separately.His possessiveness was beginning to show.Milo could grasp some of what Claude was saying to Lexi over the phone and was rendered speechless.After the call, Claude went to the kitchen and found a jar of honey. He prepared some honey water for Lexi so she could soothe her throat.He brought the honey water out to the living room, where Lexi was bending down to pick up a pen that had fallen on the floor.Her neck was exposed as she bent down.The hickeys and bite marks on her neck were extremely
