The Tiger and Wolf's Den

Su Fuying studied abroad in the United States for four years and dated a nobleman from a prominent family.

Bo Sen was perfect in every way, except that he was far too controlling.

She wanted to break up, but didn't dare bring it up.

Luckily, near graduation, someone from the Winchester family came to see her.

They told her to leave Bo Sen, or his adoptive father would personally come and "have a talk" with her.

Su Fuying had heard that his adoptive father was a control freak even worse than Bo Sen, and Bo Sen couldn't disobey his orders.

With an excuse in hand, she readily agreed, took the compensation money, broke up with him, and escaped that den of wolves and tigers.

Su Fuying returned to Hong Kong and got a job as the chairman's secretary at an American company, settling into an ordinary life.

The director transferred from headquarters was of European and American aristocratic descent, noble and handsome, but cold and blunt toward others, showing no mercy.

A secretary as beautiful as her was bound to attract trouble, and she and Fei Xize began with a drunken mishap.

The powerful man developed a taste for her. He used threats and enticements, and she couldn't refuse.

Fortunately, the man was gentle and wealthy, attentive and considerate, and mindful of her youth.

Just as Su Fuying was about to sink into the warm grave of tenderness the powerful man had made for her,

she suddenly saw a photo in his house of the Winchester family father and son.

Under the gloomy, sinister lighting stood a discreetly luxurious castle palace. Fei Xize's hand rested on Bo Sen's shoulder, his expression cold and dark, as if he were controlling a well-behaved puppet.

Su Fuying quit her job and ran away.

On the day she was caught and brought back, she woke in a magnificent castle.

The man, usually so gentle and tolerant, held a neatly folded leather belt and tapped her lower belly. "Darling, you really are so disobedient."

Reader's guide: 1. Neither has been with anyone before; eight-year age gap.

2. Gentle, honest sweetheart × mixed-race daddy with an overwhelming need for control.

3. Male rivals compete for her + mild coercion + a story about bullying an honest girl.
