Do NOT hire people on Fiverr to do "rain sound" & motivation videos. If you're like most people, you try to get into Faceless YouTube Automation and do what the other "gurus" tell you to do. They either: #1 - Upload in saturated, low CPM niches like motivation, rain sounds or relaxation videos. #2 - Do sports or movie montages that are bound to get copyright strikes. #3 - Hire expensive freelancers from Fiverr or Upwork. The other "gurus" tell you to do this because it makes it sound easy and helps them sell their courses. I am a Faceless YouTube "guru" too because I've taught this to over 10,000 people since 2017. In fact, I have created the largest and longest running Faceless YouTube Automation community in the world. And I have taught some of the biggest names in the industry. But I'm not going to tell you the easy way like the other "gurus." I'm going to tell you the correct way. It's not "easy" but it is simple and effective. We'll show you how we: #1 - Build a cost-effective team of full time professional contractors pumping out 25 videos a month for the price of 1 voice over on Fiverr #2 - How we use our own network to pass the YouTube Partner Program review and reach the 4,000 watch hours and 1,000 subscribers in around 30 days. #3 - The simple strategy my team uses to generate predictably viral faceless videos quickly and efficiently and what we do to explode these videos to the moon. So if you want more info on how this all works... Click this ad and schedule a demo with us on the next page. We'll break down everything for you in a no-fluff, easy to understand way. Sound good? Then click this ad, go to the next page, and schedule a demo. -Jordan | LEARN_MORE | http://www.passivechannels.com/free-training | 1007351922794692 | Bye 9 To 5 | https://facebook.com/Bye9To5Official | 1,605 | 1 | 1,085,762,606,308,790 | 2024-08-04 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | Learn More | 0 | Bye 9 To 5 | 120210081453200014 | passivechannels.com | NONE | dco | http://www.passivechannels.com/free-training | 2024-08-04 10:47 | https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/453865315_992564132565496_4162330060720985326_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=102&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=28mD2u74uFIQ7kNvgHQdOpL&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.xx&oh=00_AYCvWVeT4iIVBeheyQBj2bAML4ltx9Hd2cx4VxVbW5LBfQ&oe=66B5FEE7 | person_profile | 0 | Jordan | YouTube Automation Coach | https://scontent-iad3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/453859835_1000030945242661_7981238419369230109_n.jpg?_nc_cat=109&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=wbUAwu1htg0Q7kNvgHxDMHO&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-2.xx&oh=00_AYAHvwvoLjZe5kuBKLy53HIBC-e9Fo5VNvuiBwNwjnWLCQ&oe=66B5DF85 | 0 | 3 | Bye 9 To 5 | 0 | 0 | 2024-08-04 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||

đRead the next chaptersđ | After three years of marriage, Nina finally slept with her drunken husband Nash, but he called out the name of his first love. <br /> When he woke up, he remembered nothing and said to her, "Find out the woman from last night!"...<br /> <br /> Nina Walker stood by the door of the suite, hearing a low growl coming from inside,"Get out!" It was followed by the sound of something breaking.<br /> She took a deep breath and walked in the room. It was a mess inside, Nash sat grimly on the bed. He looked tempting, but his handsome face was dark, teetering on the edge of rage.<br /> The woman she had brought was too scared to move, standing bared, with a hint of guilt in her eyes.<br /> Yes, Nina had called this woman to be here. she didn't want Nash to find out they had slept together yesterday. <br /> They had an agreement - three years of secret marriage, then they could divorce. <br /> She had been Nash's personal secretary for seven years and his wife for three. <br /> He had warned her that their relationship could only be that of superior and subordinate, never to transcend this hierarchy. <br /> Nina stepped forward and said, "Mr. York, there's a meeting at 9:30, you can get up now."<br /> Nash's gaze was coldly fixed on the woman.<br /> As if he still found it unbelievable.<br /> Sensing this, Nina said to her, "You can leave now."<br /> The woman breathed a sigh of relief, quickly picked up her clothes and hurried out.<br /> Nash's face remained stern as he asked Nina coldly, "Where were you last night?"<br /> Nina was momentarily stunned. Was he suspecting her?<br /> She felt a bit nervous, "I've been dealing with exhausting projects lately. I fell asleep in the office."<br /> As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Nash snort coldly.<br /> His face turned cold as he got up from the bed, grabbing a towel to wrap around himself.<br /> Nina watched his retreating figure, her eyes slightly moist. <br /> In her presence, he always concealed himself, as if being seen by her was something repulsive. <br /> But Last night, when he held her in bed and called out "Miranda", it was completely different.<br /> She saw the headline this morning: "Rising Star Singer Miranda Lewis Returns Home with FiancĂ©!" <br /> No wonder he had drowned himself in wine and cried in her arms. He had treated her as a replacement for his first love.<br /> Bitterness flooded her heart.<br /> By the time Nina snapped out of her thoughts, Nash had already finished showering and was standing in front of the full-length mirror.<br /> Nina walked over and, as usual, buttoned up his shirt for him. He was so much taller than her, so she had to tiptoe and reach up to put the tie around his neck.<br /> As she concentrated on tying his tie, Nash's warm breath brushed against her ear, his voice husky with tension, "Nina, that woman last night... it was you, wasn't it?" | LEARN_MORE | https://shgjfh.com/market/goodnovel/1?lpid=11490&u | 144939265372419 | Indulge in story | https://facebook.com/61552702618591 | 674 | 1 | 2,027,052,074,431,549 | 2024-08-04 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | Learn more | 0 | Indulge in story | 120211190684340342 | shgjfh.com | NONE | image | https://shgjfh.com/market/goodnovel/1?lpid=11490&utm_campaign={{campaign.name}}&utm_content={{campaign.id}}&adset_name={{adset.name}}&adset_id={{adset.id}}&ad_id={{ad.id}}&ad_name={{ad.name}} | 2024-08-01 07:24 | https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/453435001_3029279163880579_5790921531443108329_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=102&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=9Vc8gveH1K4Q7kNvgFuBV4t&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.xx&oh=00_AYBDl9OtF16ZRB1ynNxA0Bn8l1lKl0uYLH8N7P_LphbgeA&oe=66B5F49F | person_profile | 0 | Indulge in story | https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/453212207_456807337194741_1760407744181930599_n.jpg?_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=eZPncOG4Lg0Q7kNvgFWoums&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.xx&oh=00_AYACcWGWyWgCngK8pmXqQ6pQEjPSrOXH0fy7eD-GqayqRQ&oe=66B60994 | 0 | 3 | Indulge in story | 0 | 0 | 2024-08-03 02:00 | View Edit Delete | ||||||||||||||||||||

Read next chapter | He believed his wife married him for his wealth, even though he was a cripple. He planned to use her and then divorce her. Unexpectedly, after the marriage, he fell madly in love with her. His wife wanted to divorce every day, but he just wanted to pamper her!<br /> =====<br /> Chapter 1 How About We Get Married?<br /> "Today is our wedding day! What am I supposed to do if you leave?" At the wedding, Elyse Lloyd was in a panic as she grabbed Theo Ward's wrist to stop him from leaving, her eyes filling with pleading. <br /> "Kaelyn knows about our wedding, and now she's threatening to jump off a building. You are aware of her depression, aren't you? I have to go save her." Theo explained impatiently and pushed Elyse aside. <br /> The venue was filled with the family and friends of both parties, all seated and waiting. The officiant had posed the question to Theo about his willingness to marry Elyse. Instead of replying, he ignored the officiant, answered his phone, and then abruptly attempted to leave. <br /> <br /> "Kaelyn Bennett totally stabbed you in the back before. She's caused you so much pain--why the heck must you go see her right now?"<br /> <br /> "You're not in a position to judge what happened between me and Kaelyn. No matter her wrongs or the pain she caused, you don't measure up to her." A pain struck Elyse's heart. <br /> <br /> "You're more concerned with your wedding than a living person's life. You're so heartless. Let's reschedule the wedding." Without a glance at her pale face, he strode away from the ornate altar, oblivious to the puzzled looks of gathered guests. <br /> <br /> Elyse cried out, sitting pitifully on the floor. She trembled, tears ruining her carefully applied makeup. <br /> <br /> The man she had loved for three years, disregarding her dignity, had chosen another woman without a second thought on their big day.<br /> <br /> He was consumed with thoughts of Kaelyn's distress but seemed indifferent to how lost and humiliated she felt, left alone at the altar. <br /> <br /> All around her, countless eyes watched, some mocking, some pitying, and others even gloating. Elyse had never felt such torment! <br /> <br /> Her father, Lanny Lloyd, approached. She hoped for comfort, but instead, he scolded her sharply, "You can't even keep a man. How useless!" After berating her, he left with his wife, Glenda Lloyd, without a backward glance. <br /> <br /> Her sister, Mabel Lloyd, emerged from the crowd with a smirk. "Well, that's embarrassing, Elyse. Your groom ran off, and now you're a laughingstock. I'm embarrassed for you. Imagine how Mom and Dad feel." After saying that, she turned and left. <br /> <br /> One by one, all of Elyse's family members departed, leaving her completely alone. Initially, Theo's parents felt guilty, but upon witnessing her family's reaction, all traces of guilt dissipated. <br /> <br /> "Even her own parents didn't support her. It seems this isn't entirely Theo's fault."<br /> <br /> "Yes, if she were a good partner, why would her fiancé leave her?"<br /> <br /> "Did she cheat on him? What else would make a groom leave like that?"<br /> <br /> The murmurs of criticism from the surrounding guests grew louder and harsher. <br /> <br /> Suddenly, there were noises nearby. <br /> <br /> Turning around, Elyse spotted a man in a suit sitting alone in a wheelchair. The officiant, looking flustered, asked, "Where is your bride?"<br /> <br /> Wiping away her tears, she halted a passing staff member and inquired, "That man is a groom, right? Where is his bride?"<br /> <br /> The staff member glanced at her and responded, "She didn't show up. I heard it was because she couldn't deal with her husband's disability."<br /> <br /> "And he's been waiting here all this time?"<br /> <br /> The staff member nodded. <br /> <br /> The wheelchair-bound groom was facing away from Elyse, and they were a fair distance apart. She couldn't see his expression, but she understood the pain of being left alone. <br /> <br /> They were both unfortunate souls, abandoned. <br /> <br /> After a moment of reflection, a determined look settled in Elyse's eyes. <br /> <br /> She had loved Theo for three years, but he had betrayed her. Why should she remain loyal to him? She realized she didn't need to be with him at all. <br /> <br /> As she suddenly stood up, the guests who had been whispering and mocking her fell silent. All eyes instinctively focused on her as she lifted the hem of her dress and confidently walked toward the man in the wheelchair. <br /> <br /> The sight of a bride in a white wedding dress approaching left the man's guests equally stunned. <br /> <br /> Hearing the rustle of her dress, the man in the wheelchair turned around slowly. <br /> <br /> Elyse halted and gazed at the handsome man before her, a spark of surprise in her eyes. She then extended her hand and said, "Hello, I heard you're in need of a bride. My groom just left me. How about we get married?"<br /> <br /> Chapter 2 What Was She Up To?<br /> "My name is Elyse Lloyd. If it's all right with you, we can get married today," she proposed confidently. <br /> <br /> Her bold proposal left the crowd in shock, prompting several to capture the moment with their phones. <br /> <br /> "Miss Lloyd, are you certain about this decision? Given my disability, I may not be able to provide the future you envision," the man replied openly, without hiding his condition, and gently urged her to think it over. <br /> <br /> "I've made up my mind," Elyse responded with determination. <br /> <br /> "I'm Jayden," he introduced himself. <br /> <br /> Seeing her resolve, Jayden Owen grasped her hand and shared his concern, "I fear you might regret this choice later on."<br /> <br /> Elyse chose not to respond. She was sure of her decision. She had once been solely focused on marrying Theo, who never truly reciprocated her love. Now, who she married seemed inconsequential. <br /> <br /> After efficiently wrapping up the wedding formalities at City Hall, Elyse and Jayden were now bound by matrimony, officially united as husband and wife. <br /> <br /> With the marriage certificate in hand, Elyse experienced a profound sense of relief. <br /> <br /> Theo had broken her heart, and she was resolute in never returning to him. <br /> <br /> Regarding her father, since she would not be marrying into the Ward family, he had another daughter to think about. <br /> <br /> She understood her little sister Mabel too well. As someone driven by greed, how could Mabel resist the temptation to become Theo's wife and a member of the Ward family? <br /> <br /> Thus, marrying Jayden was Elyse's perfect escape from her family's clutches. She had no intention of going back home again. <br /> <br /> While she gazed thoughtfully at the marriage certificate, Jayden asked, "What's on your mind? Regretting your decision to marry a disabled man?"<br /> <br /> Elyse shook her head, took hold of the wheelchair, and replied, "I think it was a good decision."<br /> <br /> Jayden smiled slightly, though his eyes betrayed a hint of skepticism and mistrust. <br /> <br /> How could any woman genuinely want to marry a disabled man? He figured she was just putting on an act--an act that couldn't last forever. <br /> <br /> He needed a bride momentarily to distract his family while he pursued his own goals. Well, he decided, he might as well see what she was up to. <br /> <br /> Elyse helped Jayden into the car, and they drove to his house. <br /> <br /> Jayden's home was opulent, complete with a garden and a swimming pool, and staffed with a butler in a tuxedo and uniformed maids. <br /> <br /> As Elyse stepped onto the plush wool carpet, she truly realized that her new husband was far from ordinary. <br /> <br /> The butler, Driscoll Lee, approached them respectfully and inquired, "Mr. Owen, is this your bride?"<br /> <br /> Surveying the opulent house and recollecting her newlywed husband's full name, a sudden realization dawned on Elyse. <br /> <br /> The Owens were the most influential family in town, and Jayden Owen was particularly notable among his peers for his business acumen and exceptional talent. He was one of the wealthiest men around. However, after a car accident a year ago that cost him his legs, Jayden had faded from the public eye and his prior achievements were largely forgotten. <br /> <br /> So, she had married the legendary Jayden Owen? <br /> <br /> Elyse recalled hearing rumors about his engagement to a girl from the Foster family. The bride who had disappeared on her wedding day was supposed to be that Foster girl. <br /> <br /> Upon hearing Jayden's full name at City Hall, Elyse hadn't dwelled on it much. If she had known his background sooner, she wouldn't have had the courage to broach the topic of marriage with him. <br /> <br /> Jayden noticed the shock and panic on her face but remained silent. He still doubted that she truly hadn't recognized him. After all, his disability was well known. <br /> <br /> "This is Elyse Lloyd, my wife. From now on, she will be the hostess here," Jayden introduced her firmly. <br /> <br /> "Joanna Foster escaped on our wedding day because she didn't want to marry a disabled man," he added bluntly. <br /> <br /> "Joanna Foster disappeared on the wedding day?" Driscoll expressed his surprise. The Foster family had been eager to forge a union with the Owen family through marriage, pushing for Jayden to marry Joanna. <br /> <br /> On the wedding day, however, the bride had disappeared. Wasn't this a deliberate humiliation of Jayden? <br /> <br /> Driscoll felt sympathy for him and offered some consolation, "Sir, perhaps it's for the best that she left. It seems you might have found the right person after all."<br /> <br /> Elyse had shown no concern for Jayden's disability and was willing to marry him. That indeed counted for something. <br /> <br /> Chapter 3 He Could Walk Fluidly<br /> Looking at Jayden's legs, Elyse felt a wave of sympathy for him. Jayden had once been at the pinnacle of success, and now he seemed so vulnerable. Just because he was disabled, his bride had callously abandoned him at the altar, showing him no respect whatsoever. He must have felt even more devastated than she did during the wedding. <br /> <br /> Approaching Jayden, Elyse took his hand and said earnestly, "Don't worry. We are husband and wife now. I will take care of you for the rest of our lives."<br /> <br /> Jayden's expression turned rigid. Could she really mean it, promising to take care of him for a lifetime? He doubted her sincerity, thinking she was just putting on an act of compassion. <br /> <br /> Without a word, Jayden maneuvered his wheelchair into the study on the first floor. <br /> <br /> "I'm sorry," Driscoll said apologetically. "Since his accident, he's been a bit more temperamental."<br /> <br /> "It's fine. I understand," Elyse replied, dismissing it with a wave of her hand. Anyone in his situation might change. <br /> <br /> She then followed Driscoll upstairs to a room on the second floor. <br /> <br /> --<br /> <br /> "Sir."<br /> <br /> In the study stood a bald man named Vinny Bailey, clad in a tight black shirt that accentuated his prominent tendons. <br /> <br /> Respectfully, Vinny ignited a lighter and lit a cigar for Jayden. <br /> <br /> "Joanna has gone abroad. The Foster family is desperately trying to come up with a solution."<br /> <br /> "They've taken thirty million and five major projects from me. Is this their way of repaying me?"<br /> <br /> Jayden let out a puff of smoke and remarked casually, "If I don't teach them a lesson, others will see me as a pushover. The Fosters need to learn a few things."<br /> <br /> "Do you want us to bring Joanna back?" Vinny inquired, nodding. "And as for your new wife, should we make some introductions with our men?"<br /> <br /> "No need."<br /> <br /> Jayden, cigar clenched between his teeth, lifted a document from the desk and strolled over to the window. <br /> <br /> The wheelchair was tucked away in a corner of the room, ignored, as he moved fluidly across the floor. <br /> <br /> This document detailed Elyse's entire life, from her childhood through to her college life, even including her romance with Theo. <br /> <br /> He casually flipped through the pages and drawled, "An ordinary woman. She married me just for my money."<br /> <br /> Back then, the Owens had declared their search for a wife for Jayden, aiming simply to secure an heir. <br /> <br /> Upon the announcement, no wealthy family was eager to marry their daughter to him, except for the Fosters, who had enriched themselves through their daughters' marriage. <br /> <br /> The Fosters' motive was straightforward--to exchange their daughter for resources and money. <br /> <br /> Vinny saw no other reason for Elyse to marry Jayden but for financial gain. <br /> <br /> Yet, there was another twist. "She was originally going to marry Theo Ward."<br /> <br /> "Ward? The Ward family that's well-known?" Jayden lifted an eyebrow. <br /> <br /> "Yes. But apparently, the groom ran off to reunite with his ex-girlfriend after receiving a phone call."<br /> <br /> Vinny paused, then speculated, "Maybe she married you just to spite Theo Ward."<br /> <br /> Jayden ceased perusing the documents and glanced up at Vinny with a hint of annoyance. "You're looking at it too simplistically. By marrying me, she stands to gain more. That's the real reason she married me, despite my disability."<br /> <br /> In Jayden's eyes, Elyse hadn't yet revealed her true intentions. But he didn't mind her interest in his money. <br /> <br /> He needed a wife to appease his family. If she married him for gain, it would make a future divorce simpler for him. <br /> <br /> --<br /> <br /> Perched on the edge of the bed, Elysee scrolled through her phone and noticed the trending topics. <br /> <br /> #Bridegroom Ran Away For His Ex<br /> <br /> #Bride Marries Stranger To Anger Her Ranaway Groom<br /> <br /> She casually scrolled through the comments. The public deemed the entire situation unbelievable and both parties' actions as unreasonable. Nevertheless, discussions had thrust Elyse's name into circulation because of it. <br /> <br /> Some even discovered she was a violinist in an orchestra and stumbled upon a video of her past performance. <br /> <br /> Unable to resist, Elyse was watching these videos when Theo called. "Where are you, Elyse? Let's meet and talk."<br /> <br /> Chapter 4 Who Were You Married To?<br /> As Elyse descended the stairs to the villa's entrance, Driscoll approached her with concern. "It's quite late. Where are you off to? Shall I arrange a car for you?"<br /> <br /> "No, thanks. I'll be back soon."<br /> <br /> Driscoll watched her depart before heading to the study. <br /> <br /> Elyse, having agreed to meet Theo, called a taxi and was soon en route. <br /> <br /> Fifteen minutes later, she entered a coffee shop and instantly noticed Theo, who was in high spirits, busy texting on his phone. A flicker of sarcasm crossed her eyes as she approached and sat across from him. <br /> <br /> Theo looked up, his expression souring. "Why are you so late? Do you have any idea how long I've been waiting?"<br /> <br /> Staring back at him, Elyse felt a chill. They had been together for a long time, yet he was always domineering toward her, a stark contrast to his demeanor with Kaelyn. <br /> <br /> She had once loved him, believing she could endure anything. Only today had she realized how foolish that was. <br /> <br /> If she didn't love herself, how could she expect anyone else to love her? <br /> <br /> "If you don't want to wait, you can leave," Elyse retorted icily. <br /> <br /> Theo, taken aback by her response, grew visibly more upset. "You're holding a grudge about what happened at the wedding, aren't you? I get why you're upset, but you can't be more understanding and reasonable? I left because Kaelyn was in dire straits--she was depressed and contemplating suicide."<br /> <br /> "You can go to anyone you want. You don't need to explain anything to me--I don't care anymore." Elyse found humor in his words. <br /> <br /> Theo couldn't believe she was indifferent. They had been together for three years, and everyone knew how deeply she loved him. <br /> <br /> He thought her claim of indifference was merely a result of anger. But he was confident he could easily resolve this. Just a few sweet words and she'd come back to him. <br /> <br /> "It's not a big deal. I came back to you after handling everything, didn't I? I'll visit your parents soon, and we can start planning the wedding again," Theo said. <br /> <br /> "No need for that."<br /> <br /> "What?"<br /> <br /> "There won't be a wedding." Elyse's face was devoid of emotion. "We're done."<br /> <br /> "Why are you still upset? I left at the wedding, but I came back for you. Can't you forgive me?" Theo frowned. <br /> <br /> "Forgive you? Forgive you for abandoning me for another woman?" Elyse slammed her hand on the table. "Do you have any idea what I've been through since you left? Your family has been calling me names, even though you were the one who left me at the altar--just for another woman!"<br /> <br /> "Elyse Lloyd!" Theo shouted her name furiously. "What others say is their issue. Isn't our three-year relationship strong enough for you to trust me?"<br /> <br /> "Three years, and yet you never forgot your ex," Elyse countered, her face marked by disappointment. "I believed we'd be together forever, but it seems three years was our limit. We're done, Theo. It's clear we're not suited for each other."<br /> <br /> While speaking, she retrieved a ring from her bag and set it down on the table--the same ring he had used to propose. <br /> <br /> She recalled the joy she felt that day, now overshadowed by her current despair. <br /> <br /> Elyse gave Theo one last look, mentally closing the chapter on their three years together. She grabbed her bag and departed without a backward glance. <br /> <br /> Theo was stunned. Was Elyse dumping him? He always saw her as a simp, her family reliant on his. How could she just walk away? <br /> <br /> Humiliated, he chased after her, grabbed her shoulder, and said forcefully, "You have no right to break things off! Remember, your father's business relies on me. Without me, your family has nothing. Come back, and we'll marry in a few days to make up for today!"<br /> <br /> "Let me go!" Elyse fought back fiercely and yelled with defiance and frustration, "I'm married. Stop bothering me!"<br /> <br /> "So what if you are married! You will always belong to me."<br /> <br /> After blurting that out, he froze and asked incredulously, "What did you say? You're married? Who to?"<br /> <br /> While he was momentarily dazed, Elyse wriggled free from his grip. She hadn't anticipated turning around to find Jayden sitting in a wheelchair quietly a few meters behind her. "Jayden!" she exclaimed. <br /> <br /> Chapter 5 You Can Stand?<br /> "Didn't I make it clear? I'm married. We're over. This is my husband," Elyse said as she quickly moved to Jayden's side, gripping his arm. <br /> <br /> Theo stared at Jayden, failing to recognize him. With a sneer, he said, "To get back at me, you married a disabled man?" He then extended his hand, commanding in a domineering tone, "Elyse, come here! I'll make it up to you when we get back."<br /> <br /> But Elyse looked at him as if he were a stranger. <br /> <br /> "Did you hear me? Come here!" Theo grew frustrated. <br /> <br /> Elyse reflected on how she would have responded in the past--she would definitely walk over to his side. <br /> <br /> She had loved him deeply for three years. Her feelings had been genuine. Yet, the depth of her affection made the betrayal harder to bear. <br /> <br /> On her first birthday after they got together, she wanted to celebrate it by the sea. To make her happy, Theo bought a camera, promising to capture beautiful photos of her. As they were about to board the plane for their trip to the seaside, Kaelyn was injured on a film set and called Theo. Without any hesitation, Theo left her stranded at the airport. It was the most disappointing birthday Elyse had ever experienced. <br /> <br /> Theo had once vowed to attend her debut performance with her orchestra, yet she ended up not seeing him there. She lingered in the hall all night, only to learn the next day that he had missed the performance because Kaelyn had become drunk at a dinner party while trying to land a role. He stayed because he was worried she might be taken advantage of. <br /> <br /> For three years, he had been Kaelyn's protector, but he had never offered Elyse the same safeguard. <br /> <br /> This accumulation of disappointments came to a head at the wedding. She knew she deserved love and respect, not neglect. <br /> <br /> "I am Jayden's wife now. I owe my loyalty to him," declared Elyse with a chill in her voice. <br /> <br /> "Elyse Lloyd!" Theo roared, enraged. He thought Elyse was merely being spiteful and fabricating things due to the day's incidents. <br /> <br /> As he tried to seize her hand, Jayden intervened, blocking him swiftly. <br /> <br /> Theo struggled to free his hand, but was unable to. He couldn't overpower a disabled man? The realization pissedhim off. <br /> <br /> "Release me!" Theo exploded with anger. <br /> <br /> "She has no desire to leave with you. Can't you understand?" Jayden pressed slowly, his force causing Theo's features to twist in distress. <br /> <br /> Jayden held on until Theo cried out in pain before releasing him. <br /> <br /> "Remember this day, Elyse. You'll regret it in the future!" With a hint of embarrassment, Theo glared at Elyse and stormed off after his declaration. <br /> <br /> Watching him leave, Elyse felt a bitter smile form within her. She knew Theo would not easily let go of being humiliated, but there was no turning back for them now. <br /> <br /> "Let's go home, Elyse."<br /> <br /> "Okay."<br /> <br /> After helping Jayden into the car, they both sat silently, gazing out the window and avoiding any mention of Theo. <br /> <br /> "How did you know I was out here?" Elyse asked, her curiosity piqued. <br /> <br /> Without turning to face her, Jayden replied, "Driscoll mentioned it wasn't safe for you to be alone at this hour, so I came to pick you up."<br /> <br /> In truth, he had suspected she was up to something secretive, but it turned out she was merely meeting her ex. This revelation left him slightly disappointed. <br /> <br /> "Since you've married me, you should sever ties with your ex. My family members are strict, and I can't cover for you if they find out you're still seeing another man."<br /> <br /> "I won't see him again. I met him just to return a ring," Elyse responded, nodding. <br /> <br /> Jayden said nothing more. As long as Elyse respected his boundaries, she was free to make her own choices. <br /> <br /> When they arrived home, Elyse noticed Jayden heading straight for the study again. Curious, she asked Driscoll, "Why is he always in the study?"<br /> <br /> "The study is not only his workplace, but it has also become a sanctuary for his soul," Driscoll explained. <br /> <br /> "And why doesn't he return to his room?"<br /> <br /> "He does sometimes, but we rarely know when. He prefers that we don't fuss over him too much."<br /> <br /> With that, Driscoll departed. After freshening up in her room, Elyse was preparing for bed, but her thoughts lingered on the day's events with Jayden. She realized that despite his reserved nature, he was genuinely concerned for her safety. <br /> <br /> Feeling grateful and wanting to express her thanks, she left her room and walked towards the study. As she approached, she noticed the door was slightly ajar, casting a sliver of light into the hallway. <br /> <br /> Elyse pushed the door open and to her surprise, saw Jayden standing. She gasped and asked, "Jayden, you can stand?"<br /> <br /> ====<br /> "You need a bride, I need a groom. Why don't we get married?" Both abandoned at the altar, Elyse decided to tie the knot with the disabled stranger from the venue next door. <br /> <br /> Pitying his state, she vowed to spoil him once they were married. Little did she know that he was actually a powerful and healthy tycoon. <br /> <br /> Was Jayden's fake disability revealed just like that? What happens next? <br /> <br /> Available chapters here are limited, click the button below to install the App and enjoy more exciting chapters (Automatically jump to this novel when you open the app)<br /> <br /> &6& | LEARN_MORE | https://fbweb.moboreader.net/55905322-fb_contact-e | 117951071240200 | Heat Novel-A | https://facebook.com/100089877962783 | 305 | 1 | 1,903,873,030,085,902 | 2024-08-03 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | Learn more | 0 | Heat Novel-A | 120211297981100714 | fbweb.moboreader.net | NONE | image | https://fbweb.moboreader.net/55905322-fb_contact-enp12_8-c1-0720-core1.html?adid={{ad.id}}&char=331118&accid=934080944896999 | 2024-08-02 01:22 | https://scontent-iad3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/453621001_516981067438272_8704124801590885191_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=105&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=HUQSiwkZdo0Q7kNvgFkz14S&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-2.xx&oh=00_AYCeG0v9kgsMOXH-JLshn1ropwV8miC71TIqo4iXLh6J5w&oe=66B5EE6F | person_profile | 0 | Heat Novel-A | https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/453503477_1578293023095982_7411981950492231606_n.jpg?_nc_cat=110&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=xBdpzwA41R0Q7kNvgE_YU4m&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.xx&oh=00_AYAvZAizfM0eYe78EDwlCg0M4Fle7yczCdkr39vBd5uKYQ&oe=66B5EA5E | 0 | 3 | Heat Novel-A | 0 | 0 | 2024-08-03 02:00 | View Edit Delete | ||||||||||||||||||||

đRead the next chaptersđ | Chapter 1 Everyone called her a party girl. This time, however, Mia Shaw finally met her match. The whole city was waiting to see her make a fool of herself. There was a dinner party following her breakup with her ex. Unexpectedly, she hooked up with the most esteemed man in Hampshire City at this party. He was the perfect husband, but he had one fatal flaw. ⊠The ballroom was dazzling with lights and elegantly dressed guests. In the southeastern corner, Victor Gray was chatting up a beautiful woman. He had his arms wrapped around her, and he was completely unaware of Mia approaching. âVictor, I heard you and Mia have set a date for your marriage. Congratulations!â âI never said Iâd marry her. Now that sheâs done fooling around, she wants a decent man to settle down with? Itâs wishful thinking on her part.â His friend was surprised. âHavenât you been pursuing her for years?â âI was only pretending to be in love with her.â Victor caressed the womanâs waist and replied indifferently. âEveryone else has had their fun with her. Iâm not about to marry someone like that.â Mia was shocked. Victor had always appeared devoted to her. Although she was not particularly fond of him, she had taken their engagement seriously and even announced it herself. She usually rejected others, but it turned out that she could be rejected too. Right then, someone noticed her and started signaling to Victor. Victor received the cue and turned around. He panicked for a moment when he saw Mia. But he quickly hid it and pretended to be unbothered. âSince youâve heard everything, letâs clear things up. I invited you here to break up with you, not announce our wedding. Ivyâs conceived, and I need to accept responsibility.â The crowd turned their eyes toward them. There was surprise, but mostly jeers. After all, Mia getting dumped was quite the show. Despite her tarnished reputation, she had been lucky enough that the Gray family was willing to accept her. Without Victor, who else would want her? No matter how enchanting she was, everyone still treated her like dirt. Mia remained composed and showed no reaction. She then scanned the room until her gaze landed on a handsome man in the corner. She was looking at Nolan Locke, the Locke familyâs wealthy and aloof heir. This family had a century-old empire and held a near-royal status in Hampshire City. Even the Gray family had to respect them. She gracefully walked up to Nolan in her champagne-colored gown. Mia had such refined beauty that it was as if she had been sculpted by a master. Nolan assessed her with calm eyes as she wrapped her fingers around his tie and gave it a few twists. He narrowed his eyes but did not stop her. She leaned in and whispered, âActually, I had my eye on you first, but I couldnât resist Victorâs relentless pursuit. Now that weâve broken up, Iâd like to pursue you. Is that okay?â Victor was the first to react. He nearly jumped up and scoffed loudly. âMia, are you crazy? Trying to salvage your dignity by going after Nolan? Heâs a good friend of mine. What makes you think heâd give you any attention?â Mia ignored him as if his words were just white noise. Her shimmering eyes stayed fixed on Nolan as she waited quietly for his response. There was a hint of interest in his dark eyes, and he smirked. âSure. You can pursue me. Donât mind him.â As soon as he spoke, the room erupted into murmurs. Even the boastful Victor was taken aback. Mia was not confident that Nolan would entertain her advances. The Gray and Locke families were family friends, so Nolan would likely reject her. If he did that, she would also be humiliated. However, she did not care. Dignity was something she had lost long ago. She suddenly expressed interest in Nolan just to spite Victor. She released Nolanâs tie and prepared to leave. However, he grabbed her waist and pulled her close with his hand firmly on her back. His deep voice was full of allure. âDidnât you say you wanted to pursue me? Leaving already?â Mia frowned slightly. Nolan was not playing by the rules and being even more proactive than she had expected. She only mentioned that she would pursue him, not that she would start immediately. But since they were still in public, she had to keep up the act. Her fingers crawled up his neck as she murmured shyly, âThere are too many people here.â âAlright. Letâs go somewhere less crowded,â Nolan easily agreed and surprised Mia with his compliance. He wrapped his arm around her as everyone watched. Victorâs shouting followed them while they exited the ballroom, but Nolan ignored him. Eventually, Victor caught up to them. âNolan, youâre taking this joke too far.â Nolan turned back calmly. âWerenât you just playing with her? You wronged her first, so donât put the blame on others. Iâm taking her away.â With that, he led Mia downstairs. Mia felt a bit awkward. âMr. Locke, thank you for helping me out.â Nolan had always been Miaâs type, both in terms of appearance and personal qualities. When she first met the men, she was indeed more interested in Nolan. But Victor announced that he wanted to woo her, so all his friends avoided her to prevent any misunderstandings. Otherwise, she might have actually pursued Nolan herself. Nolan looked at her. His affectionate and inviting eyes seemed to whisper sweet nothings. âDo you really want to pursue me?â âMaybe Iâll give it a shot. Thereâs no one I canât win over,â Mia replied. Nolan smiled faintly. Perhaps he was amused, or he found her amusing. âPursuing me wonât be easy.â âIâm not afraid of a challenge.â âThen, show me your sincerity.â Mia looked at him in confusion. Forty minutes later, she understood what he meant by âsincerity.â He had taken her to a hotel. As they fell onto the large bed, Mia felt a little disoriented. What was this? She had never heard of showing sincerity by starting in bed. This sequence seemed illogical. By the time she realized what was happening, there was no turning back. The soft and clean sheets beneath them creased and ruffled. Nolan had a reputation for being chaste and unmotivated by lust. Meanwhile, Mia was a reputed vixen of the city. But at that moment, she felt that Nolan played the game far better than she did. In reality, Mia was still innocent, and Nolan was her first. Midway through, he seemed to realize this as well, and surprise flashed in his eyes. âYouâre...â Feeling embarrassed, Mia pretended to be impatient. âAre we doing this or not? If we are, hurry up. I donât like men who talk too much in bed.â Nolan raised an eyebrow in amusement, and an unreadable smile crossed his face. After a heated night, Mia woke up late the next morning. But Nolan was nowhere to be seen in the room. Her clothes were hanging neatly on the couch beside the bed and within easy reach. Last night, they had been scattered all over the floor. So, Nolan probably tidied the place when he got up. Chapter 2 After Mia changed her clothes, Nolan returned to the room. Mia was slightly startled. âI thought you had already left.â Nolan remained silent, and his gaze fell on the spot where she had slept. The white sheets bore a red stain. Nolanâs expression was complex. Rumors had painted Mia as a woman who had been with countless men, and everyone thought that her dignity had been tarnished long ago. He never expected her to be the first time. Mia thought he might be worried that she would use this to cling to him. So, she spoke first, âDonât worry. I have no hang-ups, and I wonât expect you to take responsibility. This was my choice.â Sleeping with a handsome man like Nolan did not feel like a loss to her. His skills had matched his looks, and she had enjoyed it. It seemed fair. Nolan was about to say something but paused. He chose his words carefully before he finally said, âA single night doesnât really mean anything.â Mia nodded in understanding, as this was within her expectations. Nolan called for room service, and soon, they delivered a lavish breakfast spread. Both of them sat at the table and ate in an oddly silent atmosphere. Mia accidentally smeared some of the sandwich she was eating on her lips. She was about to wipe it off with a napkin when Nolan reached across and steadied her chin with one hand. Then, he wiped the smudge off with the thumb of his other hand. It was a moment of closeness in their sober state. Unexpectedly, Mia felt her face warm up. âMia, once you start pursuing me, you canât pursue anyone else,â Nolan said as he looked intently at her. Mia was taken aback. âWhy not?â Nolan frowned, and he was puzzled by her question. Mia explained, âIf Iâm the one pursuing, the initiative is mine. If I canât win you over, arenât I allowed to give up and pursue someone else?â Her logic stumped Nolan for a moment. Mia added, âBesides, Iâve decided not to pursue you anymore.â Nolan furrowed his brows even further, and his demeanor became cold. âWhat did you say?â âWeâve already slept together before Iâve had the chance to pursue you properly. Do I really need to continue?â Mia spread her hands. Nolan could not help but laugh, albeit bitterly. He remembered the rumors painting Mia as a party girl. She truly lived up to her reputation. âSo, you pursue someone just to sleep with them?â The usually aloof Nolan Locke was almost driven to say something as undignified as âEven if you have my body, you wonât have my heart.â âNot really,â Mia admitted and felt a bit guilty. âBut itâs not like youâd actually marry me.â âWho says itâs impossible?â Nolan replied slowly. Mia was stunned. Although the Shaw family was part of the elite, it did not compare to the century-old, prestigious families like the Gray and Locke families. The Locke family was influential in real estate, tourism, energy, finance, and more. Mentioning the Locke family in Hampshire City alone could shake the ground. Families clamored to align themselves with the Locke family through marriage. The Shaw family did not come close. Would the Locke family really consider her? Was Nolan just playing with her? Mia put down her cutlery. âIâm full. Could you please take me home, Mr. Locke?â Nolan was frustrated, and he felt that she was not taking him seriously. After a drag, he nonchalantly said, âAnd here I thought I had met someone interesting. Miss Shaw, you might as well go back on your own. Iâm not headed that way.â Mia picked up her bag and stood up gracefully. âMr. Locke, donât bother trying to provoke me. I may not have the best reputation, but I have my principles. I wonât be anyoneâs mistress.â Miaâs aunt, Ellen Shaw, had pressured her to marry a man over seventy to escape her circumstances, but she was not about to jump from one cage into another. She sought an equal relationship. Only then would she have the freedom to pursue what she wanted. Mia turned to leave, but as she opened the door, Nolanâs voice rang out. âI canât promise Iâll marry you, but becoming an official couple isnât out of the question.â Mia stopped in her tracks. She really needed to improve her status, especially if she wanted to be with someone as influential as Nolan. Only then would she not be treated like a commodity or be handed out to anyone who showed interest. Ellen had tolerated her past relationship with Victor because of the Gray familyâs status. Since Victor had broken off their engagement, Mia was worried about facing Ellen at home. Her suggestion for Nolan to drive her home had also been strategic. If Ellen saw that Mia had gotten with Nolan, she would likely be less critical. âReally? Iâll hold you to it, then.â Mia turned around with gleaming eyes. âI donât have many virtues, but the one I do have is loyalty!â Mia knew that it would be tough. However, with Nolanâs heart softening, she was no longer afraid about not winning him over. She may not have much experience in pursuing others, but she was well-versed in being pursued. With sincere intentions, she was sure that she could turn this small opening into a real opportunity. Nolan began to walk away. After a few steps, he noticed that Mia had not followed, so he turned back with a frown. âArenât you coming?â Mia feigned ignorance. âSo, weâre headed the same way now?â Nolan did not reply this time and just continued walking. Bouncing after him, she caught up and entered the elevator with him. Her exquisite face carried a hint of playfulness. Nolanâs expression remained impassive, and his tall figure exuded a silent coldness. However, he seemed less unapproachable next to the woman with a bright, blooming smile. Eventually, Nolan dropped Mia off at her home. The car glided smoothly up to the front of the villa without any attempt to hide. âThank you for the ride, Mr. Locke,â Mia said as she got out of the car before bowing slightly in gratitude. âIt was on my way,â Nolan replied. The car window rolled up and obscured his face behind the privacy glass. Then, the car pulled away. Mia stood there and remained polite as she watched him drive off. She took her time to enter the house. While she bent down to change her shoes, a fierce female voice bombarded her with questions, âWhere were you last night? You didnât come home! And who dropped you off?!â Ellen was standing at the center of the living room, and her stern gaze was fixed on Mia. Miaâs mother had passed away early on, while her father never provided for her. He was mostly reliant on his brother and sister-in-lawâs charity throughout his life. As they did not have children of their own, Miaâs father had shamelessly exchanged her for a substantial sum of money. Ellen had been meticulous in Miaâs upbringing by making her attend classes for piano, cello, dance, horse riding, and golf. Everything a lady of a wealthy household should know, Mia had to learn. Everyone praised Ellen for her generosity toward a child who was not her own. But only Mia knew that Ellen saw her as a valuable asset. She was to be groomed for an advantageous marriage. As such, Ellen was particularly strict with Mia; she allowed her almost no personal freedom. âIt was Nolan Locke, the Locke familyâs eldest son.â At the mention of Nolanâs name, Ellenâs face immediately lit up. âThe heir to the Locke Group, Nolan Locke?â Mia nodded quietly. Ellen quickly dropped the subject. Mia scoffed inwardly. Ellen did not truly care whether she was fooling around with men. All that mattered to Ellen was the status of the man involved and whether he could be of benefit to her career. Chapter 3 âTell me. Whatâs going on with you and Victor?â âWe broke up. He initiated it.â âThe engagement announcement was already made public. Do you think this is some childâs play?â âHe cheated, and that woman is carrying his child. Itâs better this way. I donât want to have anything to do with him anymore.â âUseless!â Ellen cursed. However, it was unclear if she was scolding Victor for his lack of morals or Mia for failing to secure her man. Ellen grew increasingly angry. She strode over to Mia and poked her temple. âDo you really think you can level up to the Locke family? What makes you think someone like Nolan Locke would care for your background? Iâll lay it out for you now. Either you make up with Victor and continue with the wedding or start accompanying me to social events again and prepare for an arranged marriage.â The mention of an arranged marriage made Mia shiver. Previously, Ellen had mentioned a property tycoon in his seventies. The man had outlived two wives and had numerous children, some old enough to be Miaâs parents. The first thing he did was demand that Mia devote herself to serving his entire family after marriage. This was not a marriage proposal; it was a job offer for a maid. Mia had also heard that despite his age, the tycoon was notoriously promiscuous. He had ruined many of his young lovers, which included celebrities. Ellen only stopped pushing her for more matchmaking after she started dating Victor. The reason was his family background was comparable to the tycoonâs. ⊠Ellen sent Mia back to her room. Shutting the door, Mia threw herself onto the bed and rolled into the covers. Tears silently streamed down her face. She just needed to hold on a little longer. Once she received her appointment notice from the Hampshire City Art School, she could move out and escape Ellenâs control. Mia then took out her phone. Victor had been bombarding her with calls and messages. He was questioning why she was hooking up with his friend. Annoyed, Mia immediately blocked him. Nolanâs number, which she had recently added, lay quietly in her address book. It seemed like they had reached some kind of agreement, but she still felt that he might have been impulsive. He could very well forget about their arrangement. So, in the following days, Mia did not reach out to him or see him. She was busy with her new job. Ellen did not allow Mia to rest for long. She was eager to bring her along to high-society parties and business gatherings. At the events, Ellen and Mia moved through the crowds as they exchanged toasts and pleasantries. Mia was a stunning beauty, and naturally, she became the center of attention. Many wealthy businessmen and political figures gave her favorable attention. So, who said beauty was not valuable? In such environments, beauty could indeed translate into a certain amount of worth. In one evening, Ellen had secured several significant business deals. Meanwhile, Mia had exchanged contact information with many influential people. At the end of the party, Ellen suddenly pushed Mia toward a construction magnate. âMr. Tate, Iâm entrusting Mia in your care tonight. If she does anything unsatisfactory, please be patient.â âMrs. Shaw, please donât mind us. Donât worry. Once Mia has had her fun, Iâll escort her back.â Even Mia, who often played the fool, understood the implication. Despite her notorious reputation, some people were still eager to court her. However, Mia would turn many down and offend them by using her relationship with Victor as an excuse. Unfortunately, Victor had just dumped her before their engagement. She had lost any bargaining power in marriage negotiations. Rather than waste her youth and beauty, Ellen decided it would be more profitable to send her to interested executives as a form of benefit exchange. The realization sent a chill through Miaâs body. She also felt heartbroken because she could not believe that Ellen could be so cruel. âAre you tired, Mia? Why donât you sit down over there?â George Tate came closer with a smile that revealed his ulterior motives. He did not give Mia a chance to reject. Instead, he put his arm around her shoulder and guided her toward a secluded corner. His motives were glaringly obvious. His urgency had been apparent even during the party. Mia endured his advances with disgust while she quickly thought of ways to get rid of the old lecher. Once seated, George did not hesitate to place his rough hand on her behinds. Mia stood up abruptly. Her face was pale, but she held back her anger for the Shaw familyâs sake. âI need to use the restroom. I drank too much.â âAlright, go ahead. But come back quickly.â Georgeâs smile lingered as he watched her. To him, she looked like a lamb that could not escape his grasp. Mia quickly walked in the opposite direction. She did not really know where the restroom was; she just wanted to get away. However, George followed her. Alarm bells rang in Miaâs head. She started to run even though her mermaid-style evening gown made it difficult. Worried about being caught by George, Mia pushed a random door open and found herself face to face with Victor. Victor was sitting right in front of the door on a couch. He was playing cards with a few acquaintances whom Mia recognized. What made the situation more awkward was that Victorâs new girlfriend, Ivy Brent, was also present. His body tensed when he saw Mia. Sensing Victorâs discomfort, Chris Hughes followed his gaze and spotted Mia too. He was seated next to Sam Andrews, so he gave him a nudge with his elbow. âWhatâs the matter? Is it too cramped, or are you trying to flirt with me?â As Sam looked up, his words got caught in his throat as if heâd seen a ghost. âYou guys were right. She really couldnât stand being away from Victor. Look, sheâs already back,â he said. âVictor, she must be here to confront you!â Seeing Mia, Ivyâs innocent face instantly turned pale. She clung tightly to Victorâs arm, and her look of distress made it seem as if Mia was the aggressor. Victor glanced back at Mia but ignored her presence. âAre we playing or not? Letâs continue.â âVictor, Iâm not feeling well... I think I want to go home...â Ivy whispered. âWhatâs wrong? Do you need to go to the hospital?â Victor asked gently. His concern was evident. Sam could not bear to watch Ivyâs act and directly addressed Mia, âMia, Victor and Ivy are happy together. What are you doing here? Ask yourself. Werenât you also at fault for what happened between you two? Ivyâs a thousand times better for him than you ever were. Be sensible and stop bothering him.â Mia had no intention of entering upon seeing them. âYouâre all mistaken, I was just looking for someone and walked into the wrong place,â she replied coolly and stepped out without missing a beat. Right then, her primary concern was George. Distracted, she turned and bumped into someoneâs arms. Chapter 4 Miaâs reaction was almost reflexive as she pushed the person away in a panic and nearly stumbled from retreating. Nolanâs expression darkened slightly as he steadied her. âWhat happened?â He had been with the group in the private room too. Initially, he and Victor had a falling out, but it did not take long for Victor to seek him out. Victor felt that a woman like Mia was not worth losing years of brotherhood over. So when Victor came out for fun, he called Nolan to join him. To Nolanâs surprise, he ran into Mia. His gaze drifted downward, and he noted the curve of her waist. There was no question that she had an appealing figure. Her waist was slender enough for him to hold with one hand, and her skin looked like porcelain under the warm light. Her entire being seemed soft and delicate. Anyone who saw her would yearn to get a closer look. However, the fear in her eyes was evident; she was clearly scared of something. When Mia realized that it was Nolan, she stopped, and a sigh of relief escaped her lips. Just then, Victorâs voice echoed from the room. âNolan, whatâs taking you so long? Weâre all waiting!â Nolan hummed in response and released Mia before he entered the room. Mia stood frozen for a second. Nolan and Victor had been at each otherâs throats not long ago, but it seemed that all animosity had disappeared. That figured. Why would she be worth sacrificing their brotherhood, which began in their cribs? She did not deserve it. Although she had not actively pursued Nolan or tried to contact him recently, his detached demeanor suggested that he did not care. His pcraziness in bed that night contrasted sharply with his current indifference. Men like Nolan were at the pinnacle of the social pyramid. To them, brief flings were nothing more than trivial distractions and not worth any emotional investment. He had likely forgotten the promises he had made that night. Mia smiled bitterly to herself and headed toward the outdoor area of the lounge. Many guests were getting some air there. All of a sudden, someone with a strong hand pulled her into a security passageway. A man pinned her against the door while he restrained her hands. His manly, overpowering scent flooded her senses, and she was terrified. Mia tried to kick the figure before her, but he stopped her with his leg. âSo rough,â the man teased. The motion sensor light came on, and Mia saw Nolanâs face. âWhy are you here? What are you doing...?â âI stepped out for fresh air. What are you sneaking around for?â Nolan asked without changing their compromising position in the secluded space. His tone was devoid of emotion yet somehow laced with underlying desire. Mia was contemplating asking him for help when Georgeâs voice echoed down the corridor. It struck her like thunder. âMia, stop hiding. The restroom is in the other direction. Come out. Let me take you there.â Georgeâs tone made her stomach turn. She stopped pushing Nolan away and gave him a pleading look instead. She was hoping that he would not hand her over. Initially resisting physical contact, she suddenly seemed to find solace in Nolanâs arms. Seeing Mia cling to him like a frightened kitten, Nolan raised his brows in curiosity and watched the unfolding drama. He was familiar with George Tate, a material supplier who had risen to wealth in recent years. George was known for his predatory behavior toward female college students. Considering Miaâs situation at the Shaw residence, it was not hard to guess what was happening. However, unless Mia spoke up, Nolan was not inclined to intervene on his own. âSo, arenât you going out? Heâs looking for you,â he whispered close to her forehead, and his breath tickled her. Mia clenched her fists and found the humiliation unbearable. âCan you help me?â Her voice was low and desperate. Nolan replied, âYou only seek me out when you need something. Iâm not some saint or one of your on-call lackeys.â Mia took in his words for a moment. Was he calling her out for not keeping in touch? She glanced at his face with bright eyes and playfully scratched his waist with her slender hand. As Nolan looked down, his gaze intensified. His lean muscles tensed under her gentle touch as well. She then stood on tiptoes and kissed him on the lips. His lips were dry and cool. They also had a lingering scent of tobacco and mint. Mia had no plans to deceive Nolan. She knew too well that tricking him would be like walking into a trap. So, she gave him what he wanted instead. She could tell by his gaze that his intentions were not pure. With that, she kissed him carefully and grazed the surface of his lips without much skill. She sensed that Nolan was not particularly impressed as he looked at her indifferently and observed her attempt to please him. Feeling challenged, Mia wondered if she was not attractive enough for him. She intentionally leaned closer, and their lips met. When she gently bit his upper lip, she sensed his breath faltering slightly. His dark and intense eyes were filled with desire. Just then, Mia deliberately stopped and pulled away. No sooner did she step back that she felt his arms wrap around her waist. He pulled her back toward him and kissed her. This time, he took the lead with precision and skill. It did not take long for Mia to feel overwhelmed and breathless under his assertive embrace. Soon, she was leaning weakly against his chest. Nolanâs breathing was uneven as he shifted her against the door for support. His advances became fierce and relentless. When he finally released her, Miaâs lips were numb and probably swollen. For some reason, it felt like he was punishing her. Although she was breathing heavily and covered in the scent of tobacco and mint, she did not find it unpleasant. However, she did not realize how enticing she looked. The pleading gaze in her moist eyes made her appear innocent but provocative. Passion was still in the air when the doorknob suddenly turned. Nolan calmly caressed Miaâs hair and hid her by the door before he opened it. âMr. Locke?â âWhatâs with all this racket?â Nolan responded with displeasure. With an embarrassed smile, George said, âI was looking for someone. I mustâve made a mistake.â Nolan did not have to say another word for George to scurry away. He then closed the door behind him. âThank you,â Mia said. Nolan responded, âIâll take you home in a bit. Now that George has seen you with me, he probably wonât bother you anymore.â Mia nodded obediently. As Nolan stared at her, he saw a seemingly innocent girl who was actually heartless and crafty. He felt that she could manipulate a manâs emotions effortlessly while appearing clueless and innocent. Victorâs companion, Ivy, kind of reminded him of Mia. The motion-sensor light dimmed, and an eerie silence settled in the darkness. Nolanâs sharp and possessive gaze was fixed on Mia. He seemed predatory and ready to pounce at any moment. During these tense seconds, Mia could feel him staring at her. Her heart pounded, as though it was about to leap out of her chest. Nolan took a step closer, and his tall figure loomed over her. Chapter 5 Just as Mia thought Nolan was about to do something, his phone started to vibrate in his pocket. Nolan answered the call, âWhatâs up?â âWhere are you? You vanished again after you sat down. You didnât go chasing after girls, did you?â Victorâs voice was particularly clear in the quiet environment. Nolan glanced at Mia and asked meaningfully, âWhat are you worried about?â âWhat am I worried about? Donât flatter yourself. Who is worried about you?â âYouâre worried about who Iâm with?â âI donât understand what youâre talking about. Suit yourself. I had to beg you to come out anyway,â Victor grumbled as he hung up. Mia and Nolan knew him well enough to understand that he was feeling guilty. She could not help but laugh. âOthers would think that you two were the ones in a relationship.â Nolan shot her a look as the motion sensor light came back on, and the previously ambiguous atmosphere disappeared. He then headed for the door. âLetâs go.â He was back to his distant and refined self. Mia followed him and admired his tall figure from behind. Nolan dropped Mia off at the villa where she lived with Ellen and her husband. However, Mia never told Nolan that if she did not leave with George Tate tonight, Ellen would not let it slide. Ultimately, it was a family issue. Forget Nolan, even a saint would get annoyed if he had to help more than once or twice. Anyway, Mia had guessed correctly. As soon as she arrived home, Ellen ordered Mia to kneel in the study. The study was unheated, and it was freezing in the deep winter. Mia was wearing an evening dress. Plus, she had just handed over her fur shawl to the housekeeper because the indoor heating was sufficient. Unfortunately, she was shivering in the study. Feeling resigned, Mia knelt on the floor. Her body turned stiff within minutes. Although there was a carpet, her knees ached from the hard floor. The door to the study opened, and Ellen entered with a thin whip. âTake off your clothes. Itâs not worth ruining such an expensive dress to punish you.â Mia complied and removed her gown. A huge area of her skin was then exposed. She felt cold and humiliated. Ellen whipped and scolded her for over forty minutes. When Ellen was finally tired, she left Mia in the study and went off to rest in her room. She had been drinking quite a bit, so her blows were harsher than usual. Miaâs legs had gone numb by then. With trembling hands, she picked up the gown next to her and draped it over her body. She sat in the study for a long while before her legs regained some sensation. She tried to stand but fell back down. The pain from the fresh wounds on her back was excruciating. Just then, the housekeeper, Sally, entered. She was shocked. âGood heavens! How could the madam be so harsh?!â Sally approached Mia, and her eyes welled up when she saw the wounds on Miaâs back. In this household, Sally cared for her more than her own aunt, Ellen. Soon after, Sally helped Mia back to her room. Unable to hold herself up any longer, Mia collapsed onto the bed as soon as she touched it. Her body suddenly felt heavy and extremely tired, but she forced herself to stay awake a little longer. In the end, she managed to grab her phone to call Nolan. After five or six rings, he answered the call, âHello.â His deep, magnetic voice sounded in her ear. Mia gathered her strength and tried to sound normal. âNolan, itâs me, Mia. Did you get home safely?â âYes. I just got home.â âThanks for tonight... I owe you one. Letâs have dinner sometime when youâre free.â âWeâll see.â Nolan paused, then asked, âTired?â Despite Miaâs efforts to conceal it, she sounded weak and breathless. To the uninformed, it would sound like she was on the verge of falling asleep. âYeah⊠I probably drank too much tonight.â âRest early.â Nolan was always aloof and concise. Mia said goodbye and placed her phone down before she lay on her pillow. Immediately after, Sally came in with iodine and medicine. Seeing Miaâs flushed skin and cracked, bluish lips, Sally touched her forehead. âOh! Why are you so hot? I need to tell the madam that we have to visit the hospital!â âNo⊠Ah!â Mia cried out in a panic and accidentally agitated her back wound. Even though she was a prideful person, she was still frail. The pain brought tears to her eyes, and caused her to sob softly. Sally was both distressed and anxious as she hurried back. âOkay. We wonât go. Iâll apply some medicine for you, and you can take some anti-inflammatory pills later. Have a good rest after that.â Unbeknownst to them, Miaâs phone call was still active. Confused by her fever, she never hung up, and her phone had slipped next to the pillow. Nolan had waited for her to hang up first out of politeness. However, he ended up hearing Sally checking her temperature. She was sick? No wonder she sounded so low on energy. Nolan was not one to meddle, and her fever was none of his business. Yet, for some reason, he did not end the call and continued to listen. He then discovered that Mia had been beaten upon getting home. He further learned that Ellen had sent her own niece to a lecherous man and beaten her when she failed to meet their expectations. Nolan found the Shaw family quite interesting. His assistant, Ethan Lewis, was sitting in the passenger seat. At this moment, he handed Nolan a report. âMr. Locke, please look at this reportââ Nolan raised his hand to stop him, and Ethan immediately fell silent. On the phone, Miaâs faint sobs continued. Her high fever left her weak and her voice soft. âSally... it hurts so much...â âOh, dear⊠Iâm here. Iâll stay with you⊠I feel like crying too when I see you like this. Youâve grown into such a beautiful woman. How could the madam do this?â Soon, the murmuring subsided, probably because Mia had fallen asleep. However, Nolan could still hear some faint sobbing. He finally hung up. Ethan then handed Nolan the report, and he started reviewing it attentively. âWhat do you think about the Jewel Bay tourism development project?â he casually asked. Ethan was taken aback. He did not know why Nolan would suddenly bring it up. Thinking it over, he realized that the Shaw family had secured the Jewel Bay spa project. Nolan had been quite close to Mia recently, so maybe he was considering helping her? âPolicies have been leaning toward developing new areas lately. I think itâs worthwhile for our travel investment team to assess it. But if youâre thinking of helping the Shaw familyâs company, that might be an overuse of resources.â Nolan looked up with a glint in his obsidian-like eyes. âWho says Iâm helping the Shaw family? Are they even worthy?â Ethan immediately apologized, âSorry. I was wrong to assume.â He was quite frightened. In his eight years working under Nolan, he had never seen him pull strings or make compromises for a romantic interest. Ethan knew that Nolan always prioritized business. He was famously impartial and unemotional. The only person who could get him to break this rule was the Lowe familyâs heiress. Apparently, she was about to return to the country. | LEARN_MORE | https://beokn.com/market/buenovela/3?lpid=12974&ut | 144939265372419 | Indulge in story | https://facebook.com/61552702618591 | 674 | 1 | 291,589,767,345,573 | 2024-08-03 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | Learn More | 0 | Indulge in story | 120210982243970281 | beokn.com | NONE | dco | https://beokn.com/market/buenovela/3?lpid=12974&utm_campaign={{campaign.name}}&utm_content={{campaign.id}}&adset_name={{adset.name}}&adset_id={{adset.id}}&ad_id={{ad.id}}&ad_name={{ad.name}} | 2024-07-31 04:54 | https://scontent-iad3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/453219226_858735558922586_4888892143332815271_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=111&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=FNiXw0Xx-_IQ7kNvgHO9l7B&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-2.xx&oh=00_AYDS3XI3vcWk3mG09PNZC3ITVGY8i9l5tYbb-0uOCdLZvA&oe=66B5FA1A | person_profile | 0 | Indulge in story | https://scontent-iad3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/453595933_712689130991837_6681066982518861059_n.jpg?_nc_cat=104&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=srOm8FEe1ogQ7kNvgF7B-_B&_nc_ht=scontent-iad3-1.xx&oh=00_AYCFe-Qrg1Zb_Vl3czCEEhyx5y4v9YvUXg3sR2tlqnopxQ&oe=66B5FF3F | 0 | 3 | Indulge in story | 0 | 0 | 2024-08-01 02:00 | View Edit Delete |
