Chapter 1
“Mrs. Ford, Mr. Ford’s back.”
“Really?” Yasmin Starr was busy with her drafts. When she heard that her husband was back, her
eyes lit up. She drew the curtains before her to see a Rolls-Royce Cullinan driving along the path
leading to the vi.
She saw a man in the car. His handsome face was visible from where she stood; his actions and
carriage exuded a regal air.
It really was him!
Yasmin’s heart started racing. Her face burned at the thought of the things they did whenever he
came home. Every kiss they shared was searing and passionate. It made her shy yet nervous.
Just then, the door to her room swung open. ke Ford walked in.
Yasmin smiled at him. “Mr. B!”
“Come here.” He loosened his tie.
She walked over to him shyly. In the next second, he pulled her into his arms and gave her a hard
kiss. She moaned before sinking into the kiss. Then, he carried her to the bed and had his way with
her.
ke looked like the celibate and gentle type, but he was no gentleman when it came to s*x. He
wouldn’t let Yasmin off the hook without making her cry.
Yasmin shut her eyes as she savored the experience. This time, ke was wilder than he’d ever
been. He was only satiated when she begged him to stop with tears streaming down her face.
He lifted the sheets and strode into the bathroom. Shortly after, there was the sound of running
water.
Yasmin remained in bed, lying there without an ounce of strength in her body. She and ke had
been secretly married for two years now. At first, it hadn’t been a marriage of love. Her father had
forced ke to wed her.
So, in the beginning, he didn’t like her much. But she adored him. She’d done everything she could
to chase after him and treat him well. Finally, he’d returned her feelings.
Yasmin’s heart pounded as she recalled how wild and enthusiastic he’d been tonight. She couldn’t
help feeling sweet. Would their marriage get better from now on?
Once she bore him a child, they’d be a happy family of three.
Suddenly, the bathroom door swung open. ke walked out with a towel wrapped around his waist.
He had an amazing body, but his expression seemed somewhat menacing.
He hadn’t even wiped the beads of water dripping from his hair as he asked brusquely, “Are you
pregnant?”
ke held up a pregnancy test. It had been ced on the toilet bowl, where he’d taken it.
Yasmin sat up. She was a little scared of not being able to read him. “I don’t know yet. I bought it
this morning.”
“Why did you buy it?”
“I’ve been feeling nauseoustely, and I haven’t had much of an appetite. You told me to do a test if
I had any symptoms.” Yasmin’s big eyes were filled with innocence.
ke said, “Go do the test now.”
“I’ll wait until you’re done showering.” He was obviously not done yet.
“Do it. Now.” His expression was frosty.

Yasmin didn’t dare dy further. It just so happened that she needed to pee, so she did the test at
the same time. A few minutester, she walked out of the bathroom.
ke was sitting on the couch. He looked up when he heard here out. His eyes were like dark
whirlpools as he looked at her. “How is it?”
“There’s only one line, Mr. B.” Yasmin was rather disappointed. She wasn’t pregnant.
It was impossible to tell whether ke’s eyes were filled with disappointment or relief. He said
calmly, “Get me something to wear.”
“Are you still going out sote at night?”
“Yeah.” His voice was as cold as ever.
Yasmin didn’t say anything else. She went to the walk-in wardrobe.
She was actually very disappointed about not being pregnant. Deep down, she wanted to bear a
child. The Ford family wanted her to have a child, as did ke. But no matter what treatments and
supplements she’d taken over the past two years, she’d still failed to conceive.
Besides, she was reluctant to let ke go. Over the two years of their marriage, her love for ke
had only grown deeper. He was always too busy for her, though.
Sometimes, he would be away from home for up to half a month. Now that they’d finally been
reunited, he was leaving again.
