Chapter 656 Berlin was still wrapped in his dreams, comfortably snuggled under the plush quilt.
But Candy, his little sweetheart, had been up since dawn, primping herself at the dressing table.
Agnes noticed a stack of photos on the makeup table. It seemed that Phenix had already shared them with Candy.
Candy was humming a cheerful tune, her spirit as bright as the morning sun.
Before long, the door opened with the arrival of breakfast, delivered by a uniformed butler.
Candy wheeled in the breakfast trolley, then sauntered over to the bed, her voice a soft, coquettish purr as she tried to wake her man.
Berlin woke up, pulling Candy onto the bed with a devilish grin.
Erotic sounds echoed from the room, causing Agnes to hastily shut her laptop.
These sounds lasted for about half an hour.
During this period, Agnes brewed a cup of coffee using the roomâs espresso machine.
Half an hour later, the sounds from the computer gradually subsided.
Agnes finished her coffee and walked back to her laptop.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates...
Berlin was lounging on the bed, looking utterly satisfied, while Candy was tidying up her clothes.
Candyâs voice carried a hint of reproach, âBerlin, youâve been neglecting me. You vanish for weeks, do you have any idea how lonely Iâve been? The other girls seem to be having the time of their lives, while Iâm left pining for you.â
Berlin cupped her delicate chin, âIâm here now, arenât I? Donât be mad, my beautiful girl. I promise to visit you more often.â
Candy continued complaining, âEver since you married Laura, Iâve been pushed aside. I was barely twenty when I first met you.
You were my first, and Iâve been loyal to you these seven years, never been with others. Iâve lived on your promises, your words that youâd give me a proper place.â
Berlinâs patience was running thin at this point. Candy had been raising this issue for the past four years.
Laura, although less attractive than Candy, was far more capable. She had been managing his businesses efficiently, even making wise investments in antiques and making a fortune.
Candy, on the other hand, was just a pretty girl wanting to marry a rich man. She had taken his sweet nothings seriously and held on to them for the past four years.
While he was frustrated, seeing his sweetheart in tears still moved him, Titles arenât important, my love. Isnât my heart with you enough? Look at the lifestyle youâve been enjoying, the properties Iâve bought for you and the jewelry Iâve gifted you. Youâve always been the apple of my eye.â
Candy finally smiled, playfully poking Berlinâs chest, âAt least you still have some conscience left.â
Suddenly serious, she continued, âBerlin, I know my place. My skills lie in serving you, not helping with your business. I know that when you said youâd marry me, it was just a joke. You chose a smart and capable woman as your wife. But Berlin, smart women arenât always the best choice. They have their own opinions and wouldnât be as devoted as I am. The smarter the woman, the more cunning and daring she is. I canât compete with that.â
Berlin sensed the hidden meaning in Candyâs words, asking, âWhat do you mean by all this?â
