Jerome, twisted in his tastes, loved perverse games. But dependent on the White family, with Lena so domineering, he never dared demand such things of his wife. Tonight, with Susan, he could indulge freely.
He felt pent-up and miserable, so he had no choice but to find other women outside the marriage.
Susan, though older, knew how to play the game better than anyone. Every time he was with her he got especially excited.
Buoyed by Jerome’s rapt praise, Susan grew ever more confident in her own allure.
She thought Blanc and Soren had been blinded by a vixen and couldn’t tell right from wrong.
If she weren’t beautiful enough, if she weren’t seductive enough, how could Jerome possibly be unable to stop himself?
She loved comparing herself to others, loved watching men belittle other women in front of her.
She looped her arm around Jerome’s neck and batted her eyes like a silk thread. “What about me compared to Lena?”
“Jerome, who do you prefer, me or Lena?”
“Do I even need to choose? Of course you, Susan-you’re prettier! I don’t like that tigress Lena anyway.”
Birds of a feather flock together.
Lena could fight; her circle of close girlfriends were all more than capable.
When they learned Jerome had cheated, they were furious-ready to tear that ungrateful dog apart.
Jerome was really hooked on living off someone else.
Even the hotel where he’d taken Susan was owned by the Bai family.
Because it was their hotel, Lena had no trouble opening the guest room door.
Her friends were about to rush in to give Jerome and Susan a brutal lesson and take back justice for Lena, when Jerome’s voice floated out.
“I never liked that tigress Lena! If she hadn’t forced me to marry her back then, I might’ve married you,
Susan. That tigress-temper like a demon, ruthless, looks like a hag. Just seeing her makes me sick. The most humiliating, disgusting thing in my life was getting involved with her. She isn’t fit to even tie Susan’s shoes!”
After seeing that video, Lena was already utterly disappointed in Jerome.
Hearing him say that made her feel both pathetic and ridiculous.
She hadn’t married Jerome because she pushed him around-he wouldn’t stop pursuing her.
When they were young he’d been refined and charming, full of sweet talk. The naive Lena had fallen into the gentle web he wove, and she’d worried their families were too different-that it might make Jerome uncomfortable.
So she carefully guarded his pride, quietly gave him resources, and helped him on his upward path.
Over the years after marriage, Jerome had been good to her-famously devoted to the family.
She tried to keep their home together; even when she pushed to help Jerome and he still couldn’t rise, even when his body changed, she didn’t despise him.
How ridiculous that she had poured herself into him, and in his heart she was just a disgusting tigress.
How ridiculous that she was still young and beautiful while he had grown paunchy and greasy -and he had the nerve to call her a faded old hag.
Lena wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes. Looking at his greasy body, there was not an ounce of love or regret left.
She stepped forward and slapped him hard across the face.
“You live off my money, stay in my house, enjoy the resources I fed you-who gave you the right to despise me? I let you find a mistress, I let you play around because you’re ugly and worthless… I’ll ruin you!”
Jerome, who’d been in the middle of some intimate game with Susan, was terrified by Lena’s sudden slap.
He screamed, then scrambled to the floor and begged, “Lena, I was wrong. It was that bitch Susan seducing me! I only have you in my heart. For the sake of our daughter, please spare me this once…”
Lena kicked him.
Her daughter was hers-what did that lecherous man have to do with it?
When young, insubstantial. she had believed love was everything. As she got older, love felt more and more
After living through a marriage, who still believed love alone could fill a life?
Now, for her, having her daughter was enough-who cared about a dirty, greasy man?
I never believed only the mistress was to blame when a man cheats-I’ll beat the hell out of both!
Lena and her friends had fierce fighting power. Before long they had Jerome and Susan begging and crying. you
One of Lena’s friends even had several buckets of kitchen swill brought in. Ignoring the pair’s pleas, they poured the filth over them.
But beating them and dousing them in swill still didn’t sate Lena’s anger.
Later that night, she had them thrown into the cesspit.
She “kindly” had someone watch over them so they wouldn’t die.
After all, she’d heard Susan and her daughter had offended the Luke family and might end up in prison.
She preferred to torment someone in jail-so she made sure Susan lived to suffer.
Two weeks later, Susan and Renee were both sentenced.
One got twelve years, the other ten.
Lily and Adeline had once sung the end-credits song for a movie.
Not long ago that film opened and its box office exploded-the end-credits song became wildly popular.
Lately, many production teams had been inviting the two of them to sing theme songs, ending songs, and inserts for movies and television dramas.
That afternoon, Nancy went to the studio to pick up Lily.
Knowing how close Lily was to Adeline, Nancy insisted on inviting Adeline home for dinner.
Adeline was afraid of running into Victor and naturally didn’t want to go to the Luke family estate.
But she wasn’t very good at turning people down. Nancy was so warm, and Lily clung to her hand, begging. Unable to refuse such sincerity, Adeline eventually went to the Luke family manor.
She knew Victor was a leading scientist, usually buried in work.
She silently prayed she wouldn’t run into him that evening.
But things rarely go as one wishes. That day Victor came home early. The moment she stepped into the living room, she saw him coming down from the second floor.
Thinking about how Victor already had a fianc?e and was about to become a father, while that night she’d drunkenly kissed and touched him, she felt overwhelmed by embarrassment, not knowing where to put her hands and feet.
Victor’s expression froze, as if his soul had fled his body.
He hadn’t expected Adeline to be at the Luke family home.
He knew he had touched Marilyn, that he no longer deserved Adeline. She already had a senior she liked. It was impossible between them.
Forcing down the chaos in his mind, he was just about to greet Nancy, Lily, and the others as usual, when the front door banged open-Marilyn walked in.
And then he heard her voice.
The voice that sent his heart straight into hell.
“Victor, I’m pregnant!”
Marilyn truly felt she was blessed, even heaven seemed to favor her.
Her plan had been to fake a pregnancy.
But everyone in the Luke family was clever. A fake would be exposed too easily.
Then, that very morning, she’d suddenly felt nauseous. After a hospital visit, she discovered she was actually more than three weeks pregnant.
The day before Adeline and Victor’s encounter, she had desperately wanted that thirty- thousand-dollar bracelet.
So she’d for her. gone to her former benefactor and pleased him for a night, coaxing him into buying it
