He was the successor of a mysterious European family and the president of a transnational financial conglomerate. Although a bachelor for years, he had a 6-year-old son.
She was the head of the Criminal Investigation Department of the North District Police Station, a dumb violent police officer.
When they first met, she thought he was a mobster. Not only did she crash into his expensive sports car, but even bit him.
He calmly raised his slender fingers with teeth marks and said, "Hester, do you think you can get away after biting me? I want money, or this isn't over."
She buckled when she noticed the bite mark, asking sheepishly, "How much?"
"Let's see. 500,000." He smiled charmingly but was cooking up a plan. "Bucks!"
She only made 4, 500 a month. Bursting into tears, she said pitifully, "What if I can't afford it?"
The smile on his thin lips spread wider. "Then I guess you will make do. I am in need of a girlfriend, and my son a mother."
However, she didn't want to be a stepmother!
The spoiled brat countered, "I don't want that dumb woman to be my mommy! I only agreed to call her mother for Daddy's sake. It's not because I like her or anything!"

The Odyssey of a Woman from Mars

For so many years, Farley had never been nice to Dave. Fortunately, Dave was a smart child who learned to get along with Farley. Otherwise, this child would probably be very miserable.


Farley knew what Garret meant, so he did not refute. He said indifferently, "Dave is my son forever, and Dave likes Hester."


"Even though Dave likes her, don't forget that your status isn't on the same level as hers. Your chances of marrying her are almost zero." Garret discouraged him.


However, his words didn't work. Farley seemed to be considering, "So it is." What she was afraid of and rejecting was this.


Even outsiders like Garret knew that they couldn't be together, and that silly girl who wasn't quick-witted but quick-tempered must have thought so.


She came from an ordinary family and had no confidence in him. No wonder she had always wanted him to make it clear.


In her opinion, if he was serious, then at the very least, he would say it out.
