In the dark of the night, Loraine Bryant walked nervously to a room, straightening her silk nightgown


    with sweaty palms.


    This was the first time she’d worn such a revealing nightgown, and she wasn’t wearing any underwear,


    either.


    There was a cool breeze, and the sensation of it brushing past her skin made her tremble.


    Loraine spurred herself on.


    There was nothing to be afraid of, she reminded herself.


    The man in the room was her husband, Marco Bryant, and they had been married for three years. A


    nightgown like this was made for times Like this.


    Patting her face and taking deep, calming breaths, Loraine knocked on the door.


    A man appeared, tall and strong-looking. His eyes were unfriendly and his Lips were slightly pursed.


    He was as handsome as a god from an ancient Greek oil painting.


    “It’ste. What’s up?”


    His voice was ice cold. It was like looking at a stranger.


    Loraine almost lost all the courage she had worked so hard to gather.


    “Marco, do you remember what day it is?”


    Marco frowned. “Get to the point.”All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    The expectation in Loraine’s eyes became disappointment. Forcing a smile, she said, “It’s our third


    wedding anniversary. You’ve seemed so busy Lately. But it doesn’t matter; I prepared a surprise for


    you!”


    No sooner had she finished speaking than a woman suddenly stepped out from behind Marco. She


    stoodfortably by his side and greeted


    Loraine with a smile.


    “Loraine, I’ve heard so much about you from Marco. We haven’t been introduced, have we?”


    The woman was beautiful. Her voice was gentle, and her eyes were lively. It made people want to


    protect her.


    But the sight of the woman shocked Loraine. She froze, feeling the warmth drain from her hands and


    feet.


    “Keely? Why are you here?”


    Though they had never met, Keely Haywood’s existence had always overshadowed Loraine’s marriage


    Like a dark cloud.


    The house was full of traces of Keely. All the members of the Bryant family had reminded Loraine that


    Keely was Marco’s woman of choice and that Loraine was just the titr Mrs. Bryant.


    Noticing Loraine’s sexy nightgown, Keely lowered her eyes with embarrassment .
