Chapter 85
Five months later, Courney was overwhelmed with nerves. The day of her wedding had arrived, and she would be getting married in the church. Her insecurities always attacked her; she still attended psychological counseling.Lindsey helped her put on the wedding dress she had designed herself. It was a beige lace dress with floral motifs, with sensual V-neck and a delicate back covered in very fine lace, subtly revealing the skin through floral-patterned transparencies. It was designed in a mermaid style that highlighted her beautiful figure.Stefany was sitting comfortably on the bed, enjoying spoonfuls of creamy chocolate ice cream, savoring the indulgence."Stefany! For God's sake, stop eating so much. Look at how chubby you've become, and you're only seven months pregnant," complained Luan. Every time he saw his sister, she was eating, and it infuriated him."Well, you don't know that every pregnant woman is round. What do I do if these three troublemakers demand food all the time?

Two months later."AY! AY! AY! UFF UFF UFF," Stefany cried out."You can do it, love, push, push.""Ahhh Ahhh Ahhh, I can't take it anymore," she exclaimed, sweaty."Just a bit more, Stefany, here it comes, here it is," the doctor commented.The spouses heard the first cry and smiled with happiness, but that smile on Stefany's face didn't last long; another strong pain made itself known."It's a girl," the doctor passed the baby to the pediatrician for examination."Once again, I pushed hard, Stefany, here I see the head," the doctor repeated."Ahhh Ahhh Ahhh."Another cry echoed in the delivery room."Here it is! It's another girl, once again, Stefany," the doctor handed the other baby to the pediatrician."I can't take it anymore, I can't... Ahhh Ahhh." —You can do it, love, our prince is still to come.""Stefany, come on, he needs you, strong push, push," the doctor shouted."Ahhh Ahhh Ahhh."The third cry made its presence, and the doctor showed the baby to the pediatrician for cl
Chapter 1
Lindsey Girt Rose is a young woman of just 19 years old, standing at 1.75 cm tall. She has hair as blonde as the sun, skin as white as snow, and striking greenish-gray eyes—a enviable beauty hidden behind thick black glasses and loose-fitting clothes.For the past 11 years, her life has been a torment. Shortly after her mother's death, her father remarried, and her stepmother always treated her as inferior. At the age of 8, she was forced to prepare her own meals and do chores in a spacious two-story house. Her stepmother threatened to fire the employees if they helped her. Being a year younger than her stepsister, Lindsey wore worn-out and discarded clothes. Courtney made her life miserable, crying in front of her father, accusing Lindsey of hitting her, pulling her hair, ruining her homework. All Lindsey could do was wait for shouts, punishments, and confinement to her room with no rights. That room became her refuge in a house where she had neither voice nor vote.Her so-called fat

"I told you; wine is meant to be sipped slowly. Look at yourself, you look like a drunkard," commented her sister, noticing the effects of the liquid."But I only had one drink, I don't understand. Why is everything spinning?" Lindsey replied."Come on, let's go. I'll accompany you to the bathroom," her sister said, trying to grab her arm."Leave me alone, I can go by myself," Lindsey resisted being touched."You're so stubborn. Let your sister help you," whispered Kathen."But I..." Lindsey didn't finish speaking as her father interrupted coldly."Get her out of here before she makes a fool of herself."Her sister walked with her to the bathroom, but on the way, two young men intercepted them, diverting into a hallway."Help me, this prude has passed out."Each guy took her by an arm and led her to the elevator. They entered and pressed the 9th floor button.Lindsey peeked out to check; the hallway was empty."Hurry, guys, someone might see us," Courney said, almost running. She exit

Kyle is confused; his head is spinning, and he has no explanation to offer."I don't know why she's here in my room.""Forgive me for what I'm about to say, Mr. Pratt. That girl lying there is our daughter. From what I see, her dress is on the floor, and you were without pants, being the mature man you are. What do you think I can assume? Besides, our daughter is a decent young lady." With greedy, shining eyes, he mentally wondered, ‘How does my daughter know this man? I can take advantage of this situation.’Kathen was infuriated by the luck of the girl being in bed with Kyle Pratt himself. She approaches Lindsey and shakes her."Lindsey, get up! You have a lot of explaining to do."Lindsey moves on the bed, opens her eyes lazily, and the first person she sees is her father. She blinks several times, clings more to the sheets."What happened to me? I don't remember anything, just that I was dizzy and going to the bathroom," she mumbles sleepily, feeling her body heavy and a slight he

In the Girt Rose household, a heated argument erupted during dinner."They can't force me to marry an arrogant man who thinks he's superior to others," Lindsey declared."You're definitely marrying that man. Who do you think you are, acting like a slut like your mother? Where did we find you? In a church praying or in a room rolling around with none other than Kyle Pratt? Besides, your father's company is bankrupt, and right now, you're the best option," Kathen stated sarcastically.Lindsey burst into laughter, stood up from the table, and shouted hysterically,"You mean my mother's company. She was a lady, not a woman who marries a man whose wife passed away just two weeks ago."John rose from the table with bloodshot eyes, approached his daughter, and delivered a strong slap as he spoke, "You're a spoiled brat, insolent, little thing. I thought you had learned to respect Kathen. You know, young lady, this time you used your head and rolled in the right bed. You're getting married in

A shiver ran down Lindsey's spine as she recalled a year ago when, at the age of 18, tired of the abuse and humiliation from those three people, she stealthily left the house with her morale on her back and a few bills she had managed to gather for the fare. She took a taxi to the airport, bought a ticket to a foreign country where her maternal grandmother lived. It was strange when the person at the ticket counter looked at her passport for a while, stared at her, and asked."Are you Miss Lindsey Girt Rose?""Yes, it's me! Why?"The only response she got was,"Wait a moment."The person made a phone call that Lindsey couldn't hear, and after a few minutes, two security guards appeared and escorted her to a cubicle."Miss, wait here," said one of the guards, closing the door behind her.She started looking around; it was a white room with a square table and two chairs, one at each end. She sat and waited; nerves took hold of her. She didn't know what was happening. Why were they keepi

The bride's family just watched in silence, anticipating the marriage that would bring them the benefits of being sponsored by the Pratt companies."You are very ill-mannered, young man. This is the education we have given you," shouted the old man in response to his grandson's arrogant attitude."Good morning, everyone. Grandfather, I have a tight schedule. Judge, let's get this over with quickly," he said, sitting in the chair next to the girl.The wedding was swift. Lindsey's heart raced; she felt a cold sweat running down her back. Not because of her husband, but because she had once dreamed of marrying the love of her life in a church, and now that dream had gone off a cliff.Kyle signed the document, glancing at the girl who evoked no feelings in him. He was neutral. He stood up, adjusting his suit.With a malicious smile, Kathen whispered in her daughter's ear."I told you, this man is going to ruin her."Courtney only looked at the handsome man flirtatiously."Well, gentlemen,
