Sonya immediately messaged Henry,
"What's going on?"
"Just respond."
"I'm asking how my nended up on the deed! When did this house becmine?"
"The day you agreed to marry me, | had Mr. Givens start preparing the paperwork to transfer the villa to your

You probably don't remember."

Sonya racked her brain. She vaguely recalled Mr. Givens handing her a stack of papers and asking her to sign in
certain spot. Had she signed a property transfer agreement? didn't agree!" she typed furiously.

"Was discussion necessary?"
"Wasn't it?"
"I didn't think so."
"Hah, Mr. Sullivan, what do you think | am?"
"My wife."
"No, you treatlike a commodity with a price tag!"
"Are you angry?"
"Have | already sold myself? Do | even have the right to be angry?"
Henry didn't reply.
Sonya threw herself onto the bed, catching her breath. The doorbell rang. She went downstairs and found Julian
Jennings standing outside, his face grim. "Something you need?" she asked.
He sighed. "Seraphina and my mother are back. They're fine."
"Of course they're fine. | wouldn't poison them and then incriminate myself."
"You shouldn't pay attention to those online rumors."
"You only say that because it's not *you* or Seraphina West being attacked, so you don't care."

He ran a hand through his hair in frustration."But you shouldn't have posted a fake property deed! If the actual
owner sees it, you'll be sued!" "Fake? Hah. You think | photoshopped a fake deed?"
""It's obvious."
"So sure?"
"The owner of that villa's last nis Reynolds. Don't tellyour so-called fiancé is him!"
"Who my fiancé is is none of your business. Go back and coddle your precious Princess Wen!" 13.11

"You'll buya house? Do you even have the right?"
She scoffed, slammed the door, and locked it.
Upstairs, her phone buzzed. She guessed it was Henry. She calmed herself before opening the messages. He'd
sent several.
"I'm sorry. | didn't consider your feelings."
"But it wasn't out of disrespect. From the moment you agreed to marry me, I've been carefully trying to figure

"Sonya, from the moment you agreed to marry me, you are my wife. You're the my life with."
Sonya was stunned. She'd thought it was a partnership; if it worked, it worked; if not, they'd split. But Henry was
talking about a lifetime.

love you."
He wanted to learn how to love her.
Her heart swelled. She reread his messages, realizing his seriousness and sincerity. She felt both touched and
ashamed.
She admitted it; there had been a touch of spite in agreeing to marry him. She wanted to show Julian Jennings
she wasn't unmarriageable. She needed a fiancé; it didn't really matter who. Henry needed a wife; it seemingly
didn't matter who either. She'd thought it was fair, but she'd remained detached from the role of fiancée, while
Henry had fully embraced his role from the start.
"It's my fault," Sonya replied. She added, "Givestto adjust to this identity: Henry's wife."
"Sonya's husband. I've adapted perfectly."
Sonya chuckled."Are you up yet?"
"Actually, I'm booking a flight back."
"You're coming back?"
"To beg you not to be mad at me."
She was surprised he'd rush back because she was angry.
"Cancel it. I'm not angry anymore."
"I'll be back as soon as possible."
"Okay."
After ending the chat, Sonya checked the online comments on Henry's post. Seraphina West's

fans were attacking him, calling him a loser and a poser, asking how he could afford a villa in Clouds Wood.
Sonya tagged Henry and posted: Waiting for you to chome.
Four simple words; no need for more.
The next day, Sonya went to Julian Jennings's villa. Yang was already preparing breakfast. "Lethelp," Sonya
offered, rolling up her sleeves.
"Ms. Ella, please don't. The Madam said you're not allowed in the kitchen anymore," Yang said nervously.
Sonya shrugged."Then what should | do? Clean?"
"That's fine."

With a crash, the deer shattered.
Julian Jennings and Seraphina West rushed downstairs, staring at the broken lamp.
"Sonya, you're going too far!" Seraphina West shrieked.
Sonya spread her hands. "It was an accident."
"You did this on purpose!"
"Didn't you forceto be your housekeeper?"
Seraphina West's face turned livid. She looked at Julian Jennings."Julian, she did it on purpose!"
He rubbed his forehead. "You don't need to handle household chores anymore. Just check on Seraphina when she
needs you."
"In that case, callDr. Ella," Sonya said.
"Dr. Ella," Julian Jennings gritted his teeth."Happy now?"
