Wendy Quinn was sleeping soundly when Samuel Lockwood’s shouting startled her awake. Seeing his terrifying expression, she began to cry: "I... you have the nerve to ask ? You are the one who slept with last night."
Samuel Lockwood’s mind went blank.
He slept with her?
This... how is that possible?
Yesterday evening, he was planning to go back to the old mansion to bring Nicole ho. As he sat in the driver’s seat, he suddenly felt dizzy, and then... the events afterward were unclear, as if he didn’t rember them well.
Samuel Lockwood’s face changed drastically, and he looked at Wendy Quinn with sharp eyes: "It was you, did you drug ?"
Wendy Quinn froze for a mont, then shook her head, playing dumb: "What drug? Samuel, why would I drug you? You know how much I like you!"
Samuel Lockwood laughed bitterly: "Like ? This is your conspiracy with my mother, isn’t it? Trying to force to divorce Ivy? Let tell you, it’s not possible. I, Samuel Lockwood, will never divorce Ivy Linden in this lifeti to marry another woman."
Wendy Quinn was jealous to the point of madness. What was so good about Ivy Linden? She wasn’t as beautiful as Wendy Quinn nor did she have the noble family background. What did Samuel Lockwood see in Ivy Linden?
Wendy Quinn secretly clenched her fingers, suppressing her inner rage, and spoke pitifully and resentfully: "Samuel, even though you forcibly had relations with last night, I never thought of ruining your relationship with Ivy Linden. Why do you think so badly of ?"
Samuel Lockwood frowned fiercely. The mories of last night were very vague. As he tried hard to recall, all he rembered was feeling dizzy, his whole body burning up, but he couldn’t rember having relations with Wendy Quinn.
At that mont, he really wished he could slap himself hard. How could he do sothing that would betray Ivy?
Samuel Lockwood hated himself and hated Wendy Quinn. If she hadn’t tampered with his food, how could he have done sothing so beastly? The only person he ever loved was Ivy, and he had no interest in Wendy Quinn at all. Going out for als and tea with Wendy Quinn was also demanded strongly by his mother. If he didn’t comply, his mother would keep Nicole to study by her side.
Ivy couldn’t be apart from Nicole, and Nicole couldn’t be apart from her mommy.
So, Samuel Lockwood compromised with his mother.
"Not ruin my relationship with Ivy, right? Fine, the events of tonight, if you dare spread them, I won’t let you off." Samuel Lockwood said fiercely.
Wendy Quinn’s fingers tightened, her nails digging into the flesh of her palm as her whole body trembled slightly with anger.
Samuel Lockwood threw off the covers and got up coldly.
Wendy Quinn looked at his strong back, dissatisfaction flashing in her eyes, and suddenly reached out both hands to hold him from behind. Just feeling his body stiffen instantly, she smiled.
"Let go." Samuel Lockwood shouted angrily.
Wendy Quinn was startled, her heart jolting, she bit her lip to maintain composure, and in a tone as if crying, said: "Samuel, don’t worry, I won’t spread it. I’ve already beco your woman now, show so rcy for , okay? I don’t ask for anything, just want to be your mistress."
Samuel Lockwood forcibly pried her fingers away, picked up his clothes, and put them on: "I have a wife and that’s enough, no need to keep a mistress."
Wendy Quinn’s heart was pierced with pain.
She had lowered herself to this extent, yet Samuel Lockwood was still so heartless to her?
Fine!
If being soft doesn’t work, then she’ll try being hard.
Wendy Quinn stretched her foot, stepped onto the cold floor, shalessly stood in front of him, her fair body marked with red spots, seemingly accusing the "good deeds" of Samuel Lockwood last night.
"Samuel Lockwood, a person shouldn’t be so heartless." Wendy Quinn abandoned her pitiful persona, and at this mont beca quite difficult to deal with as she pointed at her body: "These are all done by you. If you coldly pat your butt and leave, then I’ll go to your house right now and show your beloved wife these marks."
Samuel Lockwood’s face was gloomy: "You dare?"
Wendy Quinn displayed a reckless stance: "Why wouldn’t I dare? You can eat the al and not pay, so why can’t I go settle the bill with your wife?"
Samuel Lockwood’s handso face turned ashen: "Wendy Quinn, are you a commodity?"
Sadness flashed in Wendy Quinn’s eyes as she saw Samuel Lockwood take out a check from his pocket, and she felt humiliated. This man was truly ruthless, treating her this way.
Samuel Lockwood wrote a check and tossed it to Wendy Quinn.
The amount wasn’t small, fifty million.
Wendy Quinn was a bit surprised that Samuel Lockwood would give her so much money. After struggling intensely in her mind for a few seconds, she chose to tear up the check: "I don’t want the money, I just want you."
Samuel Lockwood didn’t even think: "Impossible."
Wendy Quinn once again shalessly leaned in, only to be pushed away hard by Samuel Lockwood, her eyes welling with tears: "Samuel Lockwood, you now have only two choices: either the matter between us goes to your beloved wife or you accept as your mistress. Think carefully!"
Samuel Lockwood clenched his fist, wanting to punch Wendy Quinn’s face hard.
But reason told him he couldn’t.
Samuel Lockwood was genuinely afraid Wendy Quinn would bring the matter to Ivy Linden’s attention. He knew Ivy’s character too well; if she found out he cheated, she would definitely leave him and take Nicole with her.
Thinking about Ivy Linden leaving, Samuel Lockwood was devastated, unable to accept such a result.
Samuel Lockwood reached out, fiercely pinching Wendy Quinn’s chin: "Are you sure you want to be my mistress?"
Wendy Quinn’s chin hurt, tears rolled down like beans: "I’m sure."
Samuel Lockwood sneered coldly: "Fine, as you wish, hope you can bear the consequences."
Wendy Quinn looked at Samuel Lockwood’s eyes that held no warmth; she shivered, suddenly having a bit of regret. Perhaps she should take the fifty million and go! It’s too much money to pass up.
But...
Fifty million still pales in comparison to being Mrs. Lockwood.
She must hold on, having already taken the first step, she should continue boldly and scatter Ivy Linden and Samuel Lockwood, then she can rise to her position.
Wendy Quinn stated firmly: "I love you, I’m willing to accept any test you give ."
Samuel Lockwood’s fingers trembled, disgusted by Wendy Quinn, he released her chin and strode out of the room.
Once outside, he realized he was at "The Sovereign Hotel."
Samuel Lockwood furrowed his brows, deeply uneasy, knowing this was Leon Keane’s territory. If Leon discovered his matter with Wendy Quinn and told Ivana Monroe, he would be finished.
Samuel Lockwood returned to the Lockwood family mansion.
"Mr. Lockwood, are you going to bring Miss Nicole ho? Miss Nicole is already asleep," the nanny said in the living room.
"I know."
Samuel Lockwood turned and ascended the stairs. The events of tonight were really bad, he was enveloped in the scent of another woman, so he wouldn’t return ho. He planned to take a shower and stay at the mansion, bringing Nicole back ho in the morning.
