Chapter 656

Berlin was still wrapped in his dreams, comfortably snuggled under the plush quilt.

But Candy, his little sweetheart, had been up since dawn, primping herself at the dressing table.

Agnes noticed a stack of photos on the makeup table. It seemed that Phenix had already shared them with Candy.

Candy was humming a cheerful tune, her spirit as bright as the morning sun.

Before long, the door opened with the arrival of breakfast, delivered by a uniformed butler.

Candy wheeled in the breakfast trolley, then sauntered over to the bed, her voice a soft, coquettish purr as she

tried to wake her man.

Berlin woke up, pulling Candy onto the bed with a devilish grin.

Erotic sounds echoed from the room, causing Agnes to hastily shut her laptop.

These sounds lasted for about half an hour.

During this period, Agnes brewed a cup of coffee using the room’s espresso machine.

Half an hour later, the sounds from the computer gradually subsided.

Agnes finished her coffee and walked back to her laptop.

Berlin was lounging on the bed, looking utterly satisfied, while Candy was tidying up her clothes.

Candy’s voice carried a hint of reproach, “Berlin, you’ve been neglecting me. You vanish for weeks, do you have

any idea how lonely I’ve been? The other girls seem to be having the time of their lives, while I’m left pining for

you.”

Berlin cupped her delicate chin, “I’m here now, aren’t I? Don’t be mad, my beautiful girl. I promise to visit you more

often.”

Candy continued complaining, “Ever since you married Laura, I’ve been pushed aside. I was barely twenty when I

first met you. You were my first, and I’ve been loyal to you these seven years, never been with others. I’ve lived on

your promises, your words that you’d give me a proper place.”

Berlin’s patience was running thin at this point. Candy had been raising this issue for the past four years.

Laura, although less attractive than Candy, was far more capable. She had been managing his businesses

efficiently, even making wise investments in antiques and making a fortune.

Candy, on the other hand, was just a pretty girl wanting to marry a rich man. She had taken his sweet nothings

seriously and held on to them for the past four years.

While he was frustrated, seeing his sweetheart in tears still moved him, Titles aren’t important, my love. Isn’t my

heart with you enough? Look at the lifestyle you’ve been enjoying, the properties I’ve bought for you and the

jewelry I’ve gifted you. You’ve always been the apple of my eye.”

Candy finally smiled, playfully poking Berlin’s chest, “At least you still have some conscience left.”

Suddenly serious, she continued, “Berlin, I know my place. My skills lie in serving you, not helping with your

business. I know that when you said you’d marry me, it was just a joke. You chose a smart and capable woman as

your wife. But Berlin, smart women aren’t always the best choice. They have their own opinions and wouldn’t be as

devoted as I am. The smarter the woman, the more cunning and daring she is. I can’t compete

with that.”

Berlin sensed the hidden meaning in Candy’s words, asking, “What do you mean by all this?”
