"Is Mr. Huo still not planning to let Shen Mu Yue and her son in?" "No need, she's just a love child." I was about to push the door open when I heard this, and my hand froze in mid-air. I am the Shen Mu Yue they were talking about. I am the illegitimate daughter of the Shen family, and I have a son who is also an illegitimate child. Huo Ting Yu has no love for me. I silently withdrew my hand. It's time to let go of my obsession.

Chapter 1

"Dustin, you still haven't let Sabrina and her son in?"

"No need, it's just a bastard."

I was about to push the door open when I heard these words, my hand frozen in mid-air.

I was the Sabrina they were talking about.

I was an unrecognized daughter of the Bennett family, and my son was also considered unacknowledged.

Dustin had no love for me.

I silently withdrew my hand.

It was time to let go of my obsession.

"Dustin, you still haven't let Sabrina and her son in?"

"No need, it's just a bastard."

I was about to push the door open when I heard these words, my hand frozen in mid-air.

I was the Sabrina they were talking about.

I was an unrecognized daughter of the Bennett family, and my son was also considered unacknowledged.

"Poor Sabrina. She went to great lengths to seduce you, even had a child, yet she can never become your wife."

Dustin frowned, clearly impatient with the topic. "Don't mention them again."

Three years ago, after a night of reckless abandon, if I hadn't managed to get him drunk, he wouldn't have slept with me.

Others wanted to say more, but were silenced by Dustin's icy stare.

Everyone in the elite social circle knew that Dustin, the young and promising heir to the Anderson Group was a business prodigy.

But in matters of the heart, he stumbled, getting drunk and causing a scandal with an unrecognized daughter from a modest family, resulting in an illegal child.

I, the unrecognized daughter of the Bennett family, was said to be strikingly beautiful, charming and captivating.

At this moment, Dustin's face was ashen, yet someone obliviously failed to notice his anger.

"Since you have no interest in her, why don't you let us have sex with her and let us enjoy her."

The atmosphere suddenly turned icy.

That person, drunk and speaking nonsense, shamelessly revealed his sordid thoughts.

Dustin coldly replied, "You are not worthy."

I silently withdrew my hand.

It was time to let go of my obsession.

Back home, my son, Gretchen, toddled over from the poolside, pouting and whining, "Mommy, you're back!"

The gloom in my heart vanished.

Everyone in the circle knew Gretchen was Dustin's unacknowledged child.

They secretly looked down on us.

"Gretchen, I will take you away from here, to a place where no one knows us. How about that?"

"Mommy, don't be sad. I will always love you. As long as I'm with you, we can go anywhere."

Gretchen's understanding made my heart ache.

I hugged him tightly, unable to hold back my tears.

Gretchen tenderly wiped away my tears, "Mommy, don't cry."

Dustin was a formidable figure in the business world, respected by all.

But to me and Gretchen, he was an inadequate man, a failed father.

Whenever he visited us in Mountain Villa, Gretchen would cautiously approach him, hoping for a hug and a greeting.

But he didn't get any response.

Over time, perceptive Gretchen understood that his father didn't want to acknowledge him.

I didn't want my child to be like me, treated as an outcast, growing up in a family devoid of paternal love.

Leaving might be best for everyone.

Dustin usually didn't stay overnight at our house.

For some reason, he hosted a banquet here today to entertain his business partners and did not hide my presence from the outside world at all.

I thought he would leave after the banquet ended.

Unexpectedly, he appeared in my bedroom in the middle of the night.

"What, not happy to see me?" Dustin loosened his tie, his tone mocking.

This high-and-mighty man treated me like a plaything at his beck and call, never considering my feelings.

"Dustin, you're in such high spirits tonight. Did something good happen?" I looked at him coldly, with no emotion in my heart.

"Come here, don't just stand there." Dustin impatiently ordered, "I'm staying tonight, you'd better make it memorable."

COALESCENCE OF THE FIVE SERIES BOOK ONE: THE 5-TIME REJECTED GAMMA & THE LYCAN KING BOOK TWO: THE ROGUES WHO WENT ROGUE BOOK THREE: THE INDOMITABLE HUNTRESS & THE HARDENED DUKE *** BOOK ONE: After being rejected by 5 mates, Gamma Lucianne pleaded with the Moon Goddess to spare her from any further mate-bonds. To her dismay, she is being bonded for the sixth time. What’s worse is that her sixth-chance mate is the most powerful creature ruling over all werewolves and Lycans - the Lycan King himself. She is certain, dead certain, that a rejection would come sooner or later, though she hopes for it to be sooner. King Alexandar was ecstatic to meet his bonded mate, and couldn’t thank their Goddess enough for gifting him someone so perfect. However, he soon realizes that this gift is reluctant to accept him, and more than willing to sever their bond. He tries to connect with her but she seems so far away. He is desperate to get intimate with her but she seems reluctant to open up to him. He tries to tell her that he is willing to commit to her for the rest of his life but she doesn’t seem to believe him. He is pleading for a chance: a chance to get to know her; a chance to show her that he’s different; and a chance to love her. But when not-so-subtle crushes, jealous suitors, self-entitled Queen-wannabes, an old flame, a silent protector and a past wedding engagement threaten to jeopardize their relationship, will Lucianne and Xandar still choose to be together? Is their love strong enough to overcome everything and everyone? Or will Lucianne resort to enduring a sixth rejection from the one person she thought she could entrust her heart with?
