"You, Nicholas! Fill up our footbath with warm water!" Yelled his wife while lounging on the sofa with her two best friends. They were having a good time chatting and laughing while their feet enjoyed the spa.This was just another typical sunny day in Warlington. However, Nicholas's mood was not very sunny.From a distance, these beautiful women looked like kind goddesses, each with their unique charm. However, not everything seen from afar would still look the same at a closer distance.At his wife's command, Nicholas brought out three buckets of warm water and replaced their foot bath, choosing not to complain because he was only a live-in son-in-law.He and Georgina had been married for three years, but their relationship was merely a facade. They hadn't even touched hands! Every night, Nicholas had to sleep on the floor because Georgina despised him from the bottom of her heart.Every little thing he does would trigger scolding from his wife and mother-in-law. Nicholas would cook

Georgina was in a bad mood because their company was in a dire situation. They needed to find an investor to inject five million dollars to survive the threat of bankruptcy. An urgent shareholders meeting was called, and as the general manager, she had to attend. However, when she woke up this morning, she remembered Blaire borrowed her car. So she had no choice but to ask Nicholas for help, but it only doubled her annoyance."Drive faster! If I'm late today, I won't let you see the end of it!" Georgina impatiently said, but soon regretted it.She almost fell off when Nicholas picked up speed and couldn't help hugging his waist.Nicholas shivered from her touch. This was their first intimate contact in three years, and feeling Georgina's heat on his back was riling him up. Nicholas drove even faster because of that.Georgina breathed a sigh of relief when they finally arrived at the company, and just as she got off the scooter, a blasting engine roared on her left. An Audi Q-5 parked

Inside the CK Group building on the other side of the city, the shareholders' meeting ended after hours of exhausting deliberation.Georgina stood by her office window, massaging her forehead with her brows furrowed in frustration. But since it was time for a break, she left her office to grab a snack.She heard several employees chattering in the lobby from a distance, laughing while holding their phones.'Why are they loitering here?' she thought.Georgina walked in their direction. She was about to reprimand them when she noticed the man in the video playing on an employee's phone.It was Nicholas talking to his scooter! Georgina's eyes widened in horror."Don't worry, Scooty. I'll avenge you! Just wait and see." He sobbed while stroking the bike's pedal."That guy is so funny! Who is he?" One employee cackled after watching the video.The employee holding the phone frowned. "Don't you know who he is? He's Manager Clark's husband!"Georgina stood behind them like a statue, too asha

Heather's comment caught some of their former classmate's attention while Nicholas stood still, confused. He heard them making fun of him in the background, but Nicholas made sure his clothes were clean before attending.He was about to reason with Heather, but John Bennet suddenly pulled him away.He remembered that he and John had the best relationship in high school. They often fought and skipped classes together. Nicholas expected that John wouldn't talk to him like the rest of the batch, but the latter proved him wrong.John pulled Nicholas to a corner and shook his head while pointing at Heather. "Dude, a woman like Heather isn't on our level. Sitting next to her would only bring shame to ourselves." Nicholas just laughed and nudged John's shoulder.They were busy catching up when Heather suddenly stood up and picked up a microphone. She was tipsy after having quite a few drinks.She stood at the center and swayed her hips sexily while singing. Most of the boys in their batch in

The Clarks were a family thriving with a billion-dollar worth of assets led by a matriarch. She's the grandmother of almost everyone present at the gathering, and Ryan is her most favored grandson. If they want a peaceful life, they better not mess with him."Mom, what are you doing?" Georgina stepped in. Although she disliked Nicholas, he still saved their faces.Despite the stinging red palm print on his face, Nicholas smiled. It was the first time in three years that Georgina spoke up for him. With a satisfied heart, Nicholas turned and walked away."Hey, you piece of garbage, get back here!" Esther's angry voice could still be heard from far away.Amidst everyone's watchful eyes, an old voice suddenly sounded from nearby."What's with all the commotion?" The Clark family matriarch, Barbara, asked as she walked through the crowd. The once lively hall suddenly fell silent."Well, well, don't be so uptight. Sit down," she said, waving her hand. A few assisted her as she continued, "A
