Ross was now a second-year college student pursuing a business degree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, he had chosen the course because it was the cheapest available at his school, aligning with his once-tight budget.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, now that he was unimaginably wealthy, he saw no reason to change it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The course was manageable, and despite his growing fortune, Ross wasn't particularly interested in academics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For him, it was a box to check rather than a passion to pursue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One evening, as the frost settled outside, Ross gathered his wives in the spacious living room of his luxurious home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had an announcement to make, and they all sensed it was something significant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearing his throat, he addressed the group with a tone that commanded their full attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want you all to know something,\" he began, pausing to gauge their reactions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I've decided to marry again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room grew quiet, and then a wave of murmurs rippled through his wives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ross raised a hand to quiet them and continued, listing the names of the five women he intended to marry: Mari, Stephany, Jessica, Rose, and Ayla.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each name seemed to spark its own ripple of surprise or intrigue among the gathered women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't stop there. Ross had also approached Emma, a woman who had been a significant part of his life, to see if she would join his ever-growing harem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Emma had steadfastly declined. Her reasoning was clear: she wanted to raise her daughter, Erica, in a stable and conventional environment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having a father figure with multiple wives didn't fit into the world she wanted for Erica.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ross,\" she had told him firmly, \"I can't let Erica grow up in a home like that. She deserves stability, and I can't give her that if I'm part of your marriage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Emma offered him a compromise. In Erica's eyes, Ross would remain a close and trusted friend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind closed doors, however, they would continue as lovers. Ross accepted her terms without argument.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew he could have pressed the matter further—after all, his wealth and influence gave him considerable power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he chose not to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He valued Emma too much to force her into a situation she wasn't ready for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, their current arrangement suited him just fine. He had the intimacy he wanted, and Emma had her peace of mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hazel, another significant woman in his life, had also been approached. But like Emma, she declined—though for different reasons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's too soon,\" she explained. \"I want to wait a few more years before making things official. I need to think about my parents, too. It would be too much for them to find out that both Althea and I have fallen for the same man.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ross respected her decision, even if it wasn't what he wanted to hear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Patience, after all, had its rewards, and he was confident Hazel would eventually join his family on her own terms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the end of January, Ross had officially married five new women, bringing the total number of his wives to 17.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no elaborate honeymoon—no extravagant trips or grand displays.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, they celebrated privately in Parkland City, surrounded by the opulence Ross's wealth afforded them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wedding night was a spectacle in itself. In the intimacy of his home, Ross and his wives came together to consummate their union, each moment steeped in passion and excess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene was one of boundless indulgence, a testament to Ross's growing power and the life he had built for himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As January gave way to February, Ross found himself at the center of a life most could only dream of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was wealthy, powerful, and surrounded by beautiful women who adored him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, even as his harem expanded, he remained keenly aware that not everything in life could be bought or forced—something Emma and Hazel had taught him well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This February held something special for Ross—something he had carefully planned and anticipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was finally time to take Jessica's cherry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike some of his other wives, Jessica was untouched, and Ross, despite his indulgent lifestyle, wasn't heartless enough to let such an intimate moment be witnessed by others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted this to be special for her, devoid of embarrassment, messy blood, or unnecessary pain in front of an audience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To make the experience memorable, Ross decided to save her for last.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He planned an exclusive trip for just the two of them, ensuring they would have the privacy and intimacy needed for such a momentous occasion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some thought, he chose a beach setting—a tranquil, romantic backdrop where they could escape the demands of their everyday lives and focus solely on each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One weekend in February, Ross and Jessica left Parkland City and headed to a secluded beach resort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The destination was breathtaking—white sands stretched endlessly under a golden sun, and the azure waves sparkled like liquid gemstones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their villa, perched just steps from the shore, was designed for romance, with luxurious amenities and sweeping views of the ocean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they settled in, Ross made sure Jessica felt at ease. He spent the day with her, indulging her every whim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They walked along the shoreline, collected seashells, and laughed as the waves lapped at their feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By evening, the sky was ablaze with the colors of the setting sun, casting a warm, golden glow over the water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A penny for your thoughts?\" Enjoy new chapters from My Virtual Library Empire\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jessica was startled out of her quiet introspection by a deep, smooth voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had been enjoying the peaceful view in silence, the ocean breeze gently brushing against her face, when the unexpected intrusion broke her reverie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning her head, she saw an incredibly handsome man standing nearby, his smile effortlessly charming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A strange sense of déjà vu washed over her, and her stomach sank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had been in a similar situation before—one that hadn't ended well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm sorry,\" she said, her tone polite but firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm already married, and my husband is with me right now. Please leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jessica turned away, making it clear she had no intention of entertaining the man further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Does marriage prohibit you from making new friends? From talking to other men? If so, being married sounds like a rather spooky prospect,\" the man quipped, his playful tone laced with humor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His grin widened as he delivered the line, clearly hoping to lighten the mood.\u003C\u002Fp>",1076,"2026-06-09T06:18:43.919Z",1,"novelbin.me","b96ea6f75f6f2a7db85e73a8f7a1400476e973e5523973b3f87f7d2085476d80","evil-mc-s-ntr-harem-chapter-380","evil-mc-s-ntr-harem-chapter-378",1212,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fevil-mc-s-ntr-harem-cover.jpg"]
