"If our son turns out to be impressive, those women wouldn’t mind if he took several wives, would they?"

Sienna Johnson squinted slightly as she stared at Adrian Desmond, "By what you said, do you feel like you lost out by only marrying me, huh, Sixth Master?"

"No!"

"Sixth Master, are you lately feeling ’hungry’? With your wife pregnant, you aren’t satisfied, are you feeling aggrieved, huh?

Are you thinking if you had more wives, you wouldn’t be this ’hungry’ right now? If the main wife can’t satisfy you, then there’s the second wife, and the third one, hmm?"

Adrian Desmond accompanied her with a smile and immediately expressed his unwavering stance to his wife, "For me, it’s about body and soul entwined together. Sex without love is for dogs. I’m not one of those dogs on the streets that will go for any female dog."

"..."

"You don’t know, just holding you now makes me feel satisfied." Adrian Desmond embraced Sienna Johnson, whispering sweet nothings.

"Really?"

"Really!"

"Then from now on, whenever you’re ’hungry,’ just hold me. We don’t need that body and soul fusion anymore." Sienna Johnson purposely provoked him, and sure enough, she saw the man’s expression change.

Trying to act like that?!

Hypocrite!

"Mrs. Desmond, have I done something to upset you again? Tell me, please." Adrian Desmond pleaded.

"Misplaced anger, misplaced anger, do you understand? The Hopper Family upset me, so I can only vent my anger at you. I’m afraid if I don’t release the fire in my heart, it’ll lead to internal injury."

Adrian Desmond felt terribly wronged, "Wife, don’t you think I’m being treated unfairly?"

"Not at all!"

Adrian Desmond embraced Sienna Johnson, with Sienna Johnson lying bonelessly in his arms; he asked with some unease, "Do you especially dislike making love with me because you were traumatized by our first time?"

Their first time was a disaster due to his inexperience and her rejection.

"You’re overthinking; it’s just because of the Hopper Family, I’m in a bad mood."

"So you do want to do it with me?"

"..."

"How often do you feel desire? Hmm? Every three days, a week? Or every two weeks?"

He leaned his handsome face closer, only to be pushed aside by Sienna Johnson; she knew they shouldn’t discuss this topic.

"I feel desire for you every day." He whispered seductively, nibbling on her ear lobe.

"Adrian Desmond, indulging in desire shortens one’s life!"

"I’d rather die on top of you!"

"Adrian Desmond, could you die more honorably?"

Adrian Desmond: ...

...

The hospital,

Ashley Hopper looked at her flattened belly, feeling a bit dazed; she didn’t understand how things turned out this way.

Back then, she had chased Marvin Rafael for so long, but Marvin Rafael didn’t fancy her; it was only because of the child in her belly that Marvin Rafael decided to marry her.

But now the child is gone...

If Marvin Rafael doesn’t want her anymore, what is she supposed to do?

"Ashley, why isn’t your brother released yet?" Mother Hopper asked worriedly.

"..."

"Your brother, he’s never suffered a bit since he was young; now being captured, he can’t eat or drink well. Do you think they’ll abuse your brother? I’ve seen on TV; the police abuse prisoners, even beat some to death.

Milton is the life root of our Hopper Family; if anything happens to Milton, I don’t want to live either." Mother Hopper completely disregarded her daughter who had a miscarriage, obsessed only with her sole son.

Her son Milton Hopper was her lifeblood; the daughter was just grass!

Ashley Hopper was also worried and tried to comfort her, "Mom, Marvin has already gone to pull some strings, he’ll be released soon."

"Really?"

"Hmm." Ashley Hopper nodded, speaking softly.

She had a miscarriage, and Marvin Rafael hadn’t come to see her; he doesn’t plan to keep her.

She had also hit Rose Collins; she didn’t mean to at that time, she couldn’t control her anger.

Just an adopted daughter, yet their family treasured her like a gem; can she compare to the grandson in her belly?

The medicinal material factory made so much money, and they weren’t thinking of taking over it, leaving their family to fend for themselves in the Northwest wind?

Jenny asked, "Sister, where is brother-in-law? Why hasn’t he shown up?"

Father Hopper asked, "Yes, Ashley, is he not planning to keep you?"

"We’re already married, how could he not want me? Stop talking nonsense, okay?" Ashley Hopper didn’t feel confident saying this.

In Marvin Rafael’s heart, his mom, his sister, each one was more important than her.

"Sis, I asked a classmate who studies law, and they told me that during divorce, you can split half the assets. If the medicinal material factory sells, even half the money is enough for us to live lavishly for the rest of our lives." Jenny calculated.

Ashley Hopper looked at her parents, looked at her sister, the physical pain couldn’t compare to the emotional pain; she had a miscarriage, and not a single family member cared, instead thinking of her divorcing Marvin Rafael, calculating money.

"If I divorce, where would I find a good man like Marvin Rafael? Can you all just stop? If it weren’t for you urging me, causing trouble at the old house, I wouldn’t have had a miscarriage, and Marvin wouldn’t be angry and not come to see me?"

Jenny blew on her bright red nails, looking at her sister, "Sis, isn’t it a bit late to say this now? You agreed to it back then, didn’t you?"

"Can’t I regret it now?"

"Sis, regretting now is too late. Since things have happened, we have no way out.

If Marvin Rafael dares to divorce you, you need to take the medicinal material factory..."

Mother Hopper added, "And that little villa and BMW, we need them for Milton’s marriage."

"Mom, I’m not divorcing!"

Ashley Hopper still had feelings for Marvin Rafael; Marvin Rafael had excellent qualities, was responsible, and cared for the family. If she divorced Marvin Rafael, where would she find another man with such good qualities?

"Sis, whether you divorce or not isn’t up to you now. Just wait, Marvin Rafael is so filial; since you hit his mom, he’ll soon come to ask for a divorce." Jenny spoke coldly.

"I will not divorce!" Ashley Hopper looked determined to cling to Marvin Rafael.

The door to the hospital room was pushed open by Marvin Rafael, who entered carrying a load of supplements, with a smile on his face.

"Ashley, are you okay?"

"Marvin?"

"I brought lots of supplements for you, take good care of yourself."

Marvin Rafael’s attitude completely surprised the Hopper Family; they thought Marvin Rafael would be resolute in wanting a divorce.

Ashley Hopper cautiously asked, "Marvin, did you go to the old house?"

"I did."

Marvin Rafael wasn’t good at acting, so he placed the items on the table, avoiding Ashley Hopper’s gaze.

"Mom, what did she say?" Ashley Hopper cautiously asked.

"Mom knows you had a miscarriage, she’s very upset and feels guilty, she wants you to take good care of yourself."
