Startled by the sudden acceleration of the car, Essie grabbed on her seat and said, "Hey, slow down!"

She wondered why he was trying to bring her home in a hurry. She figured it was because Leila would get so impatient waiting for him.

Men always got tired of old, and were fond of the new. After playing around for so long, he seemed to have grown tired.

Essie already had enough of having her heart broken into pieces. Now, she didn't want to end up losing her life.

"Zac, I'm telling you, the last time you had a rare chance of getting your way out. However, you failed to seize it and you missed your chance. I have now decided to watch your performance and I get to decide when we get divorced." She folded her arms across her chest and said these words loud and clear.

The cast of gloom disappeared on his face. He slowed down the car and said with a smile, "What do you mean?" He raised his left eyebrow and his eyes began to spark a tinge of light within the darkness.

"If you treat me well and make me happy, I will move the divorce a day earlier. However, if you displease me, I will postpone it for another day," she said sweetly with eyelashes that fluttered like wings. Now, she had complete control of him and had seized the initiative. If he wanted his freedom to be with Leila, all he had to do was listen to her and make her happy.

She was too caught up in her triumph to notice that he had smiled with a mischievous look in his eyes.

The situation seemed to have reversed dramatically.

Now, he didn't need to lay his cards on the table, but to put all his efforts into tormenting this confused little girl.

She had been mistreated countless of times, while she spent the whole time treating him like her first love.

He never realized that the confused little girl intended to abuse herself.

"You seem to have gotten it all wrong. Shouldn't my good performance make you

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

n't have the patience for it, so I'll watch the series once it has all been released," she said with a subtle pout.

Zac proceeded to the kitchen and came back with a tub of ice cream. He knew that this was something that helped people stay awake. She waved her hand at him and yawned, having no regard of her image as a lady. "I don't want to eat, I just want to get some sleep."

"Okay, I'll sleep with you."

When these words escaped his mouth carelessly, Essie was suddenly wide awake.

"Check the TV." She smiled awkwardly, using all her strength to keep her eyes open. She was worried that Zac would instantly take advantage of her the moment she blinked an eye.

Zac murmured silently by himself. He had the time, patience and wisdom. Clever cats would play with the mouse before they swallowed it.

When the clock finally hit 12 o'clock midnight, Zac suddenly mysteriously went up the stairs. After a long while, he came back and said, "It's getting late. It's time to go to bed."

She rolled her eyes and felt as though something was wrong with him. By this point, however, she was too tired to think about it and just went straight up wanting to sleep.

She pushed the door open and the light of a candle glimmered in front of her eyes.

She was stunned.
