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

Selina suddenly sprung up from the sofa and looked at Hester solemnly. "Hester, I want to ask you a favor."


"Tell me, what is it?" Hester smiled and took a sip of juice.


Selina took a deep breath and made a decision. "I want to learn how to fight."


Hester nearly spat out the fruit juice.


Hester coughed a few times and looked dumbfounded. "Selina, what did you say?"


The steely-eyed Selina replied steadfastly, "I want to learn how to fight!"


Dave who just walked out of the kitchen was also struck dumb.


Hester scratched her head. She felt the need to stop being a bad influence on the kid. So, she smiled at Selina and said, "Selina, why do you want to learn to fight?"


"I don't want to be weak. I want to protect myself as you did. I can also..." Selina glanced at Dave and continued, "Protect others."


Hester noticed Selina's gaze and was saddened. She wondered if it was a bit strange to let a girl protect a boy.
