Author: Miss Rich
"Routine security inspection..."

Hearing the urgent knocking, Lana steadied herself and helped the man to the bathroom. "No matter what happens outside, don't come out."

"But you..."

Before he could finish, Lana had already closed the door and left.

The knocking continued. Lana walked quickly to open the door, only then noticing that the entire right side of her cream-colored long coat was stained with blood.

Her brows furrowed slightly as she took off the coat, then opened the door.

Standing outside was the manager with several people behind him. He was momentarily stunned to see Lana. "Oh, it's Miss Carter. Here's the situation—a young man accidentally bumped into an important guest earlier. He was injured in the abdomen. We're wondering if Miss Carter has seen him?"

Lana stepped aside slightly. "Why don't you come in and take a look? But make it quick—Miss Chancer will be here soon."

Sophie was notorious in their circle for her bad temper.

She’s grumpy and feisty, always looking dow

    However unwilling Lily was, she could only follow them.Watching the three leave, Sophie gave them the middle finger, spat in disgust, and pulled Lucas inside before closing the door."Thank god the property management here has good eyes—they spotted Stephanie right away and called Lana immediately. Otherwise Ethan, that bastard, would've really caught Lana red-handed today!"At this critical moment, if Ethan had discovered the relationship between Lana and Nine, given that guy's personality, forget about a smooth divorce—Lana would be in for hell.Some people are just like that—total double standards.After speaking, Sophie went to call Lana, completely missing the dark gleam in Lucas's eyes.**Only after Stephanie had pushed Ethan out of Sophie's sight did she dare speak again. "Ethan, I still think that man is Lana's boy toy, and Sophie came here just to cover for her.“This is Ryan Luther’s property, and Sophie and Ryan are mortal enemies. Given her personality, she would

    Lana had actually betrayed him!Hadn't she said she would only love him for the rest of her life?Now she was keeping a boy toy behind his back!Fury completely consumed Ethan. Not caring whether his leg still hurt, he suddenly stood up from the wheelchair and grabbed Lucas by the collar. "What's your relationship with Lana?"Lucas looked at Ethan expressionlessly, offering no explanation. "Let go.""I don't like repeating myself..." Ethan's face was nearly twisted with rage. "You'd better answer honestly.""Ethan, why does he even need to answer..." Stephanie pointed at Lucas. "Why don't you call Lana right now and see if she dares to come over?"Lily seemed to be trying to calm things down, but was actually adding fuel to the fire. "Stephanie, you didn't actually see Ms. Carter with this gentleman, so let's not jump to conclusions.""Who says I didn't see it with my own eyes?" Stephanie began fabricating. "I saw it myself—that's why I called my brother. Lana left this apartme

    "Lana would never do anything to betray me!" Ethan's tone was particularly firm. "Anyone in the world might betray me, but she absolutely wouldn't!"He understood better than anyone what he meant to Lana and what he represented to her.Her love for him could never change in this lifetime.Ethan's trust in Lana was what Lily had always found most detestable.Her eyes darted quickly as Lily gently stroked Ethan's chest. "Don't be angry. I just wanted to tell you that I've known Stephanie for so long, and I've never seen her lie.“Of course, even if Stephanie isn't lying, that doesn't mean Lana did anything to betray you. It might just be a misunderstanding.“You know Stephanie's temper, and her relationship with Lana hasn't been great lately. If they get into another fight..."She paused here, then asked tentatively, "Should we go take a look?"Ethan pressed his thin lips together. Though he didn't immediately agree, there was already a subtle change in his expression.Lily lowe

    Just as Stephanie was about to send the photos to Ethan, someone suddenly rushed out from behind and slammed into her hard, not only making her drop her phone but nearly knocking her over.Stephanie steadied herself. She immediately turned around and started cursing. "Are you blind? Pick up my phone!"The person who hit her was a girl about her age, and she wasn't pleasant either. "You dropped it yourself—why should I pick it up?"Stephanie crossed her arms. "Because you bumped into me. If you hadn't hit me, how would my phone have fallen?"The woman rolled her eyes. "If you weren't lurking around here like a rat, how would I have bumped into you?"Stephanie was already fuming, and this made her even more furious. "Who are you calling a rat?"The woman crossed her arms, her face full of arrogance. "What, can't understand human speech?"Stephanie had never been treated with such disrespect. Her eyes flashed like swords. "I'm telling you one last time—pick up my phone!""Fine, I'

    "He doesn't know..." Margaret's voice dropped even lower. "I tricked him into signing it.""I see..." Helen asked, "But in that case, even if the waiting period ends, if your son refuses to show up for the final hearing, they still can't get divorced!"Margaret was confident. "He'll be willing."Helen looked curious. "How? Do you have a plan?""Of course I do. He's my son—naturally I have ways to handle him!""What method? Tell me."Margaret smiled mysteriously. "It's a secret for now.""...What's there to keep secret from me? Come on, spill."No matter how Helen pressed, Margaret refused to say. Helen didn't dare appear too eager, afraid of arousing suspicion.Using the excuse of going to the bathroom, Helen sent Lana a message.Lana read Helen's message and frowned.Even Helen couldn't get it out of her.But Helen also mentioned that Margaret seemed very confident, so there wasn't much to worry about.The next day, before work, Lana first went to Southern Court.She bro
