Chapter 1168
Vans held Nina as if she was a doll, and paced around as he continued calmly, 'My parents met before my dad took
over the Stanley family."
At that time, Lionel Stanley, who was now his father, was just an ordinary employee working in the Stanley family's
business.
Vans's mother, Lillian Collins, was Lionel's superior due to her outstanding performance at work. For a woman to
rise to such a position in the company wasn’t easy, but it also brought a lot of gossip and backbiting.
Most of it revolved around insinuations that a woman was in such a role. How else could a woman reach such
heights and be in charge of so many men?
Was it because of her professional skills?
Of course not.

Amidst all those rumors, Lionel was the only one who stepped up to defend her. Lillian began to develop a slight
liking for her colleague. She was more willing to have him along for business trips.
At that time, it was merely a fondness. Lillian had never considered quitting her job, or engage in an office romance
with her colleague. It was clearly stated in the company's rules that office romances were not allowed.
She had worked tirelessly to climb the corporate ladder to her current position as a division head, and she wasn't
ready to throw it all away. She certainly wouldn't do anything to jeopardize her future.
But one night, while on a business trip with Lionel, she was unwittingly dragged into the power struggle among the
Stanley family heirs.
Lionel was drugged by the eldest Stanley sibling.
His entire body trembled, and his face burned red. Yet, he tried his best to maintain his composure. He urged Lillian,
who had come to his room to discuss preparations for the upcoming business meeting, to leave his room quickly.
At that moment, Lionel's eyes were bloodshot from the effects of the drug.
He urged Lillian to leave as quickly as possible.
"If you stay any longer, I won’t be able to control myself. I won't be able to resist using you as an outlet." Lionel
struggled to utter the words.
Lillian's face instantly turned crimson. She had noticed something was off with Lionel for a while, but she hadn't
mustered the courage to ask until now. "Lionel, what's wrong with you?"
Her voice was like the most refreshing popsicle on a scorching summer day, and Lionel felt the burning sensation
inside him reaching its peak.
He forcefully raised his head and pushed her out of the room. "Just go!"
The moment his hand touched her skin, however, he felt like he had touched an ice-cold natural freezer.
He longed for her. He craved her.
Lillian understood the look in his eyes, but she didn't want to stay and help him. Without hesitation, she opened the

However, her words were cut off as Lionel dragged her back into the room.
That night, Lillian's world came crashing down.
In the many nights that followed, she kept replaying that night in her mind, trying to understand what had
happened.
The man she trusted the most, the one she believed had the most sense of justice, had done something so cruel to
her.
She felt so filthy.
She began to shower every day, scrubbing her skin until it was raw. However, she couldn't wash away the
nightmare of that night.
And then came another nightmare.
Lillian discovered she was pregnant.
She stared at the two lines on the pregnancy test, unable to believe she was carrying Lionel’s child.
