When He Returns, Love Has Been Silenced

Daniel was right, I am indeed blind...

I fell in love with him recklessly back then.

I fell in love at first sight with Daniel at the freshman orientation in college.

He is the most popular boy in school, and I am the prettiest girl in the department.

We were considered a perfect match in school.

My family background is not good, so I started part-time jobs since my freshman year to earn tuition and living expenses.

Daniel often came to help out at the shop where I work part-time, and the reward was that I treated him to a bowl of instant noodles.

On our first holiday together, I saved money and bought him a pair of sneakers worth 40 dollars as a gift.

Daniel loved them so much and said they were the best shoes he had ever worn.

At that time, I thought our family backgrounds were similar.

Until one day, I accidentally learned from a classmate that a pair of socks on Daniel's feet could be worth thousands of dollars.

Knowing that Daniel is actually a rich second generation, I took the initiative to break up.

But Daniel did not agree. He waited outside my dormitory every day, trying to please me and promising to treat me sincerely.

I couldn't control my heart and fell again.

My only insistence was not to use Daniel's money.

Daniel also respected me and never showed his superiority in front of me.

I always thought that there was true love between us.

It had nothing to do with money, nor status...

Until my senior year...

Daniel suddenly said that he wanted to leave for a while and asked me to wait for him.

His phone can no longer be reached.

Overnight, Daniel completely disappeared from my world.

I foolishly waited, but what I got was the news of his engagement abroad...

My thoughts were interrupted by a sudden phone ring, and Ella's condition suddenly worsened.

I took the car that Daniel was driving and rushed back to the hospital.

The attending physician said that in order to save Ella's life, amputation must be performed immediately.

I was thunderstruck.

Daniel frowned and asked, "Did you borrow money for the child?"

With tears in my eyes, I pleaded desperately, "Ella is only three years old, can you please save her..."

Daniel made a decisive decision and arranged for Ella to be transferred to another hospital. With just one phone call, the most authoritative expert team in the country was summoned.

After a night of rescue efforts, at dawn, Ella finally escaped from the life-threatening situation and kept her legs.

Daniel looked at Ella lying on the hospital bed, still unconscious, and suddenly asked, "Whose daughter is she?"

A trace of panic flashed in my eyes, and then I said, "She is, of course, my husband's and my daughter!"

Daniel's face turned dark, "So you slept with another man and got pregnant right after I left?"

I bit my lip, "You had left, do you still expect me to remain chaste for you?"

After a moment of silence, Daniel suddenly sneered, "I'm not interested in your affairs."

"But the money you owe me, and the favors, when and how to repay, I have the final say."

He grabbed my chin and forced me to look up at him.

Daniel's smile was cruel and mocking.

"One time equals 1,500 dollars, Stephanie, you can wait to die in my bed."

I, a married woman, became Daniel's mistress.

During the day, I accompany and take care of Ella at the hospital.

At night, I work hard to please him, my sugar daddy, in bed.

On the weekend, Daniel sent me a hotel location and asked me to go there on time.

I thought he wanted to play some new tricks again.

Even if I felt ashamed, I had to cooperate with him.

Only when he is happy and satisfied can Ella get better treatment.

When I went to the appointment wearing the black stockings prepared for me by Daniel, I realized that today was the university class reunion.

In the private room, I saw Daniel surrounded by people at the seat of honor at a glance.

A male student joked, "Isn't this the high-class beauty of our class? Mr. King, back then you two were..."

The girl next to him interrupted with a sarcastic tone, "Isn't this Stephanie, who got married before graduating from university?"

The male student slapped his forehead and immediately shut up.

Daniel just glanced at me and casually said, "Stephanie? Long time no see, I almost didn't recognize you."

A burst of laughter came from around.

Someone whispered, "She dressed so provocatively for the class reunion, it must be intentional."

"Still trying to seduce Daniel? You've already married, shameless!"

"Look at you, what is Daniel's identity? It was her luck to be able to play with her for a few years back then!"

In the eyes of my classmates, I was just a gold-digging woman who failed to entangle Daniel and had to marry someone else.

If I had heard them talking about me like this before, I would have slapped each of them without hesitation.

But now... what qualifications do I have to defend myself?

After three rounds of drinking, I went to the bathroom.

When I came out, a hand pulled me into an empty private room next to it.

The sound of the door being locked startled me.

Daniel pressed me against the wall, and the hot breath mixed with the smell of alcohol sprayed on my neck.

"How about doing it here, 5,000 dollars for once?"

At the point where our bodies touched, I could feel his strong desire.

I pushed him away abruptly, "Daniel, are you crazy?"
