Erik dropped to his knees in front of Krista, clutching the fabric of her dress like his life depended on it. His eyes were full of regret. “Krista, it’s all my fault. Please, don’t divorce me. If you forgive me, I’ll have all of their stuff thrown out right now.”
He whipped around and snapped at the housekeeper, who was standing there in shock. “Why are you just standing there? Get them out of here, right now!”
Gianna screamed, her voice shrill and desperate. “Erik, what are you talking about?”
Marilyn was just as furious. “Dad, are you seriously kicking Mom and me out for her?”
Victoria nearly lost her balance and had to grab the sofa to steady herself, her face stunned. What on earth was wrong with her son? Why was he kneeling to Krista, of all people? If anyone should be kneeling, it should be Krista, not Erik.
Krista looked down at the man who used to act like he was untouchable. Now he was on the floor, begging. The anger in her chest burned just as strongly as ever.
“Erik, do you really think a few tears are going to fix what you’ve done?” She shook off his hands, her voice icy. “The prenup is clear. If you cheat, you leave with nothing.”
Erik’s face was serious as he looked up at her. “Krista, I don’t know what I was thinking. Please, for the sake of all the years we’ve been together, forgive me this once. I’ll do anything. I just don’t want a divorce.”
Krista’s tone softened a little as she met his eyes. “Anything I want?”
“Yes,” Erik said quickly.
A cold smile played on Krista’s lips. “Alright, then start by getting them out of my house. I don’t want to see them ever again.”
Gianna’s face twisted in rage as she screamed, “Krista, you came back from the dead but it doesn’t mean you get to run the show! Even if you kick us out, you’ll never be in charge of the Bland family!”
Krista didn’t even look at her. She just glanced over at the bodyguards by the door. They moved in right away, dragging Gianna and Marilyn out as they kicked and screamed. Their angry voices faded down the hallway, leaving behind an awkward silence.

Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
