With some things, it was better to leave them unsaid.

Saying too much wasn't his style.

Letting the other person's mind wander with unanswered questions—that was the most exquisite torture.

Xavier Grayson placed his phone against the glass. One video showed Nadia losing the bet and handing over the southern suburb land. The other was footage captured by highway surveillance cameras—zoomed in, the license plate and faces inside the car were clearly visible, and the person behind the wheel was un

    Tim didn't quite catch Gwen Grayson's meaning, but Caesor understood it all.He swirled the drink in his hand and took a sip. "If we're playing, we need props. I'll go get them."Nora Fatehi immediately stopped him. "Let me go. I'll grab some snacks too—keep Joy company tonight."She didn't spell it out, but the implication was clear: she couldn't drink much.Caesor nodded and let her go.What she didn't expect was to come back with a face full of secondhand embarrassment.Back in the room, Gwen Grayson had Tim by the ear. "Are you sure?""Yes, yes—ouch! My ear! You're really going for it!" Tim clutched his ear and yelped.But Gwen Grayson hadn't even used that much force. Was this man always such a drama queen?—When Chloe Bishop woke up, it was already late at night. She turned over instinctively and brushed against something soft.Opening her eyes, she found Xavier Grayson sitting beside her, holding the contract she'd signed earlier that day."You're awake?"He spoke softly, his

    With some things, it was better to leave them unsaid.Saying too much wasn't his style.Letting the other person's mind wander with unanswered questions—that was the most exquisite torture.Xavier Grayson placed his phone against the glass. One video showed Nadia losing the bet and handing over the southern suburb land. The other was footage captured by highway surveillance cameras—zoomed in, the license plate and faces inside the car were clearly visible, and the person behind the wheel was unmistakably Nadia.Arthur Bennett's eyes went wide. "No... that can't be. Nadia wouldn't—!"Xavier Grayson said nothing. His gaze was sharp as a hunting leopard's, fixed unwaveringly on the man's face.Watching him panic. Watching him fall apart."Mr. Grayson! Please! My Nadia is innocent—don't hurt her!"Finally, he caved.Xavier Grayson calmly withdrew his phone. "Sorry. This time, she brought it on herself.""Xavier! You son of a bitch! You've already destroyed us, and now you want to ruin Nad

    Chloe Bishop's car passed through the toll booth swiftly. She studied the vehicles closing in from behind.It seemed that even on a crowded highway, she couldn't shake them.She placed a hand on her belly and said to Vincent, "Can you lose them?""Yes." With that, Vincent pressed down on the accelerator.But as he sped up, the cars behind them sped up too. The distance between them wouldn't budge.Chloe Bishop knew they had about ten minutes before exiting the highway. If they couldn't shake the tail, a confrontation was inevitable. A fight would be one thing, but Anna and Rick were essentially helpless, and she herself was pregnant—an injury would be disastrous.A sudden idea came to her. She leaned in and whispered something to Vincent, who immediately frowned in objection. "No, Madam. You're pregnant. You can't handle that kind of stress.""Trust me. I know what I'm doing. I'll take responsibility if anything happens." Chloe Bishop smiled confidently.Vincent still refused. "That w

    "Yes, Lord Thomas.""To think I'd run into you again after all these years. Last time I saw you, you only came up to here." Thomas gestured to his shin, his eyes filled with nostalgia. "How is your grandfather?"Chloe Bishop's gaze softened.She chatted with the three masters for a while and saw them off respectfully, already breaking into a sweat.Nadia's outburst earlier had been quite something.Anna immediately checked on Chloe Bishop. Finding only a mild scare, she let out a relieved breath."Madam, it's crowded here. You should head back after you've seen enough."Vincent tucked his phone into his pocket and strode over.Chloe Bishop didn't answer. Instead, she looked at Rick, who was staring at the exhibition with wide, starry eyes, completely captivated.She couldn't disappoint her. Rick had been looking forward to this.So she shook her head. "No. Rick hasn't seen enough yet. The exhibition hasn't even officially started. We'll stay a little longer."Vincent opened his mouth

    Rick, standing right beside her, immediately noticed Chloe Bishop's slight tremble and her face filled with concern."Nadia, you come from a prominent family—how can you not even own up to a simple bet?""Exactly. If she had lost, would she have handed over Bishop Group so willingly?"The crowd's words cut through Nadia like knives.Freya bit her lip, frustrated by the failure, but still tried to smooth things over. "No, this was all just a joke. We didn't expect everyone to take it so seriously."A joke? How could she even say that? Things had gone far beyond a joke at this point.Chloe Bishop stepped forward. "Betting is a matter of mutual consent. Miss Bennett, if you don't want this to blow up and embarrass you further, how about we both call our lawyers and settle this properly?"Nadia gritted her teeth. "You! You cheated—you must have! Otherwise, why would you win both rounds?!"The moment she said that, the crowd began to murmur.Her words implied that the three masters had pla

    The moon rises bright and clear, How fair her form appears! Soft and slender is her grace, My restless heart can find no peace.The moon shines pure and high, How lovely meets my eye! Gentle and graceful she appears— My troubled heart is filled with tears.The moon casts down its light, How radiant is her sight! Sweet and charming is her air— My aching heart knows only care.Leaving aside the complexity of the script, the emotion woven into the words was enough to fill Chloe Bishop with quiet joy.The competition had drawn reporters, and their cameras captured the moment perfectly—broadcasting it live. Somewhere in his office, a certain wolf found his lips curling upward beyond his control.Finch watched his boss—those eyes barely concealing his delight, that mouth fighting to stay level with the sun—and felt exhausted just looking at him.He rose at just the right moment. "I'll—I'll go to the restroom!""Mm."Xavier Grayson's mood was clearly excellent. Normally, he'd have been dismi

    Looking into Chloe’s bloodshot eyes, Liam withdrew his probing gaze. He lowered his eyelids, remaining silent and detached, his long lashes veiling whatever emotions stirred beneath.Chloe had always adored Liam’s physical perfection. Even now, standing there in the dim light, he looked like a flaw

    Outside the Operating Room.Chloe sat on a plastic chair, still wearing her million-dollar designer wedding dress. She was trembling, sitting as still as a lifeless mannequin. The dress, once pure and white, was now stained with dark, wet patches of blood. Against the crimson stains, her skin looke

    Chloe pinched the tiny scrap of black lace between her fingers, her expression filled with pure skepticism. "Are you serious? Is this even wearable?"Wouldn't just pinning him down be faster and more efficient? she thought.Bella rolled her eyes at Chloe’s lack of romantic vision. "What do you know

    “Have you found out who did this yet?”Liam Martin’s usually handsome, refined face was currently shrouded in a dark, suffocating shadow. He looked cold and lethal—the literal personification of the calm before a devastating storm.At twenty-four, Liam had spent the last six years clawing his way t
