Chapter 29
Chapter 29
Keith left. Instantly, only William and Vanessa were left in the living room of the presidential suite.
Vanessa supported William, saying. “Let me help you back to your room to rest.”
In the next moment, William pinned Vanessa down on the couch.
*Mmm…” Vanessa was kissed. She looked into William’s dominant and aggressive bloodshot eyes, trying her best to get up. She tried a few times, but every time she managed to prop herself up, William pinned her down again.
At that moment, William was like a wild wolf that was totally out of control.
Vanessa remembered what Keith had said that there was remaining poison in William’s body, and she felt anxious.
She called out to him, “William, calm down.”
“Honey…” William’s bloodshot eyes were filled with veins. Apparently, he couldn’t restrain himself any longer.
“Hey, William!” Vanessa shouted.
His kiss descended onto her lips once again, which was urgent and passionate…
Vanessa slowly closed her eyes and responded to William’s kiss. He saved her father’s life, and now they were husband and wife. She was willing to be his antidote.
Sensing that Vanessa was responding to his kiss, William became almost insane. He wished he could devour Vanessa whole.
The raging fire of lust was burning wildly in his heart. His soul was completely consumed, leaving the atmosphere in the room full of desire…
The crimson in William’s eyes gradually faded, and soon, he became clear–headed.
Vanessa wrapped herself in a blanket, her face blushing with the innocence of a girl who had just experienced her first time
of sex.
William looked at Vanessa. Once again, he had the urge to pounce on her.
Suddenly, he noticed the blood stain on the couch. He was surprised and delighted.
William didn’t mind her past, but the first time indeed brought him a sense of surprise. He stood up, put on his pants, and lifted Vanessa along with the blanket, carrying her into the room.
He placed her on the bed, leaned over, and gently caressed her cheek with his thumb, saying, “I will be good to you for the rest of my life, I promise.”
Vanessa didn’t say anything.
If William was just an ordinary person, she would have tried her best just to be with him. But unfortunately, he wasn’t.
She was afraid of getting emotionally involved. She was afraid of ending up like before, humiliated and abandoned.
*I’ll take a shower. You go ahead and sleep.” William reached out and touched Vanessa’s face. He then went to the bathroom.
Vanessa held the blanket to her chest, looking in the direction of the bathroom. She felt a mix of emotions whirling in her heart.
“If he was just an ordinary person,” she murmured inwardly, “how nice would that be.”
But the truth was, he was a billionaire, a top magnate who could earn billions of dollars from a single project.
Vanessa just couldn’t hold back her inner insecurity.
She recalled the scene in which Jackson’s mother threw a bunch of fake photos in her face and condescendingly said to her, “Girl, have some self–respect, will you?”
At that time, Vanessa held the photos and explained, “No, these photos have been photoshopped. I didn’t do it.”
Jackson’s mother looked down on her and said, “I’m not just talking about the photos. Actually, they don’t matter. What matters is that your status doesn’t match Jackson’s. To pursue something that you don’t match is a lack of self–respect, you know?”
Vanessa said, “Mrs. Foster, I will try my best, I promise. I will try my best not to hold Jackson back and be a good wife.”
During college, she worked tirelessly, just hoping that one day she could match Jackson.
Jackson’s mother seemed to have heard a joke. She sneered, saying, “Ha, not hold him back? Be a good wife? You know what? Based on your status, you’re just a joke in this society. This is not just about holding him back, understand? You will definitely disgrace my family. Be a good wife? Can you provide financial support to Jackson? Or can you provide connections to support him? In a wealthy family, one small incident can have a ripple effect. One piece of negative news can cause stocks to plummet. Only a high–ranking heiress from a wealthy family can help Jackson make the Foster family

Chapter 29 stronger.”
Vanessa wanted to explain, but Jackson’s mother left without even looking at her.
At that time, she called Jackson and explained that the photos weren’t real, and she hoped that Jackson would convince his mother. However, Jackson coldly said to her over the phone, “Let’s break up. It doesn’t matter whether the photos were real
or not.”
At that moment, Vanessa felt as if she were deaf. She felt like a fool, crouching on the ground, crying like the saddest person in this world.
This had become a bloody scar that she still couldn’t truly heal. She could only try her best not to think about it.
Vanessa also understood that there was a vast difference between ordinary people and the rich. It wasn’t something she could catch up with just by working hard. No rich family would accept an ordinary girl. She didn’t want to face mockery and humiliation in the future either. She just wanted to live a simple life, stable and peaceful, which belonged to an ordinary person like her.
Vanessa felt a coldness on her face. When she reached out and touched it, she found that there were tears. Why was she crying again? She pursed her lips and tried to stay strong.
When William returned to the room, Vanessa was sitting on the bed. He naturally lifted a corner of the blanket and sat down. “Waiting for me, huh?” he asked with a smile.
“Yeah.”
“Do you have something to tell me?” William asked again.
Vanessa nodded, her hands clutching the hem of her skirt under the blanket. She said, “Meeting you has been a stroke of luck
for me.”
If it hadn’t been for William, perhaps her father would have been gone by now. Her younger brother wouldn’t have received cochlear implants either.
“I’m the one who’s lucky.” William reached out and caressed Vanessa’s hair. It was slightly messy, but it didn’t diminish her beauty. He just felt that it was time for her to sleep and that she should remove her makeup. He said, “I’ll have someone bring up a makeup remover set.”
William held his phone in one hand and reached into the blanket, holding Vanessa’s hand with the other. He was accustomed to holding her hand.
Vanessa didn’t withdraw her hand. She felt a bit uneasy and said, “Actually, you’re not a worker who only earns a monthly salary of 4,000 dollars, are you?”
William instructed someone on the phone to bring up the makeup remover set. He hung up and looked into Vanessa’s eyes. honestly saying. “No, I casually wrote down a monthly salary of 4,000 dollars at that time because I wanted to find a suitable person to marry. I’m lucky to have found you.”
“Are you in a rush to get married to spite your ex–girlfriend?” Vanessa asked ”
“Not entirely,” he replied.
“Actually, even after a breakup, you should still love yourself, Vanessa said.
William felt that something was off with Vanessa. He looked into her eyes and said, “I’ve always been loving myself.”
After the breakup, he quickly went on blind dates and got married, starting his new life. How was that not loving himself?
Vanessa said, “With your status, even if you don’t marry Ms. Yost, you should marry a daughter from a wealthy family. You have many options.”
“So what?” Willian frowned and looked at Vanessa closely.
“Marriage is not just about two individuals, but two families. I am a poor person who can only hold you back. I’m not worthy of you… um…” Vanessa’s words were cut off by William.
William bft Vanessa’s lip, displeased, which seemed to be a form of punishment.
After a while, he finally released her.
Vanessa said, “William, calm down. You know that not many people know about our marriage. If we separate, you can marry a daughter who matches your status…. ah…”
This time, William fiercely bit Vanessa’s lip, causing ber to cry out in pain. He pressed her down, his eyes looking at her, full of displeasure. “Why do you have to belittle yourself like this?”
Vanessa really made William angry with her attitude.
Usually, it was a man who denied his responsibility after having sex with a woman. But now, the situation was totally different. Vanessa enjoyed the pleasure and then told him they should break up.
