Standing under the gorgeous room lights, Alex curled up his lips into a relentless and ironic arc.

Nora stared at the man, and for a moment, she felt like those four years were like a horrible dream that she would never want to look back at again in her life.

Thus, she replied to him in a cold voice, "Really? Is Mr. Hoffman that powerful now? Impressive. But I'm also clear that if my mother learned that I saved her by getting pregnant with my ex-husband's child, she would get mad with me or even get ill again because of that."

Abruptly, the door to the room was closed. Nora was stunned by the noise and breeze. Before she came to her senses, Alex reached out to hold her waist and kissed her on the lips, overwhelming her with his masculine breathing and vibe.

Alex clasped the back of the woman's head, cornered her 1.6-meter figure against the wall, and kissed her at will as if she was his prey.

Nora could not believe what the brute was doing to her and struggled to press her hands against his sturdy chest. The moment her soft fingers touched the man's naked, cold upper body, the kissing intensified.

"Alex, are you crazy?"

"You bastard. Get off me."

Alex suddenly paused his movements and said to Nora with a sneer, "Get off you? Sorry, I don't know how." With that, his grim smile deepened.

While Nora was still stunned, the man continued kissing her violently.

The man held Nora's full buttocks with his broad palms. Upon seeing the European-style, king-sized bed in the room, the woman panicked.

"No! Let go of me, Alex! No! Stop it!"

Nora kept slapping the man's torso, waving her hands and feet.

"You've charged me half a million yuan. It's your service to make a baby for me. So, of course, I need to scrutinize your body."

Nora was thrown on the bed, the sky and earth spinning around. It was a big bed which could accommodate four adults. The woman managed to climb up, but the man stopped her from getting out of it.

After several attempts, Nora became anxious and wept.

Upon seeing the woman's tears, the man lifted her chin and dried her damped face with his kisses bit by bit in a seemingly sympathetic manner.

His tone of voice was gentle, "What are you crying for? You used to enjoy making love to me, didn't you?"

Nora glared at Alex, saying, "Son of a bitch, why are you doing this to me? Didn't you say you were tired of sleeping with me? I'll pay you back. Just let me go! Let me go!"

The man pushed Nora back onto the bed, ignored her weeping, and said in an indifferent tone, "Perhaps I was somewhat tired of you back then and wanted to try some women else." He nibbled on the woman's ear and whispered, "But now I come to the conclusion that you the best."

Alex's touch on Nora's body made the woman's heart tense up all over.

Uncontrollably, she gave the man a slap in the face.

Alex was slightly shocked by the woman's movement, and his expression instantly became gloomy.

Nora wiped her tears away, and images of the past occurred to her. Alex did not love her. Why did he trample her over and over again?

She could not convince herself to stand shoulder by shoulder with the man against whom she had deep hatred. Once upon a time, Nora was willing to do anything for the man. In the end, however, her entire family suffered a lot due to her stupid obsession with him.

If possible, she wished she had never known him!

...

Nora had no idea how she eventually got out of the hotel and vaguely remembered that she kicked Alex in his lower body before she got a chance to flee.

It was a summer night. However, Nora felt cold all over after getting out of the hotel.

She hailed a taxi and told the driver her address. Then, she began to think about how to raise the money. No matter how, she would not take that half a million yuan from Alex.

Unexpectedly, after five minutes since she got out of the hotel, Nora received a phone call.

"Hello?"

"Nora, where are you? Something's happened."

It was from the attending doctor of her mother. With her heart contracted abruptly, Nora asked worriedly, "Doctor Lloyd, what's the matter? Is my mother okay?"

Doctor Lloyd's voice sounded from the other end of the line, "Nora, did you offend someone? I don't know why the surgery scheduled for your mother tomorrow has been canceled. As you know, given her current condition, the surgery is a must."

The cell phone slid down the woman's hand, and her empty heart immediately became filled with hatred.

Alex Hoffman, you madman!
