Hearing Maya's accusation, Noah's face darkened.

No wonder Second Brother had kicked her out — so New York City's top socialite was this kind of person. No wonder Grandma had praised her so highly.

Ava Adam's pretty face was also filled with disapproval. Her delicate features were scrunched up in displeasure. "Miss Bishop — why would you do such a thing?"

Everyone looked at Chloe Bishop with indignation — but she just smiled dismissively and said something utterly arrogant. "They asked for a bea

    Of course Adrian Grayson remembered that promise. He just didn't want to talk about it.So he wriggled out of Xavier Grayson's arms. "It's nothing."This kid—just as stubborn as ever.Xavier Grayson knew that all too well. Irritated by the boy's defiance, he grabbed his arm. "What do you mean 'nothing'? Tell me the truth."Adrian Grayson bristled like a cornered little leopard. "Nothing, nothing! I said it's nothing! Both of you, get out!"Xavier Grayson's temper flared—he was about to say something when Chloe Bishop grabbed his arm and pulled him out of the room."Adrian, you get some rest. I'll come keep you company tonight."Adrian Grayson wanted to refuse, but meeting Chloe Bishop's gentle gaze, the words died in his throat. He could only give a soft, puppy-like "Mm" in response.Her maternal instincts in full swing, there was no way she'd let Xavier Grayson yell at him.She shut the door and pushed Xavier Grayson back toward their room."That's enough from you!"Xavier Grayson pl

    Xavier Grayson wasn't in a hurry.After all, swooping in to intercept a deal halfway through was essentially crashing someone else's party. One wrong move, and the goods could be lost and reputations ruined. Once trust was damaged, it would be hard to find another partner in this market.Filis asked, "If the shipment does end up in your hands, what do you plan to do with it?""Nothing much. I'll be upfront with you—even if you come all the way here, Hank Grayson will struggle to pay the balance. If you don't believe me, you can test the waters first, and then come find me."Xavier Grayson knew that if he pushed too hard for a partnership straight away, Filis would harbor doubts and suspicions.The best approach was to let him see for himself.And Filis, as expected, took the out Xavier Grayson had given him. "Fair enough. We'll talk the day after tomorrow then. If Hank Grayson really can't pay the balance, I won't waste any time. I'll take the goods back and return every penny of his

    "Is someone really out to get us?"Rocco's face paled slightly—clearly, the matter rattled him.Christ rolled a pair of walnuts in his palm. "I hope it's not true."As they spoke, the driver noticed something off. "President Johnson, there's a car tailing us."Christ and Rocco whipped their heads around in alarm.These past few days, Christ had been driven to the brink. Everywhere he went, there were people following him. If he at least knew who he'd offended, he could figure out what to do—but he didn't even know who his enemies were!Rocco's face turned white. "What do we do, President Johnson?""There's only one thing to do—drive! Get on the highway!"The driver nodded and swerved sharply.Just as they were about to make their escape, Christ's phone rang. He grabbed it and glanced at the caller ID—it was Xavier.Like a drowning man clutching a lifeline, he answered, "Hello! President Grayson!"Xavier's voice was calm. "Don't panic. The car following you is carrying bodyguards I arr

    Xavier Grayson made the necessary preparations and had Finch stay close as he awaited Christ's arrival. Within a few hours, the man showed up.He was heavyset, unremarkable in appearance, and dressed casually to avoid drawing attention from reporters."President Grayson, a pleasure." Christ beamed.Xavier Grayson nodded and shook his hand. "Likewise. I asked you here today for one simple reason—I want to confirm if your intelligence is reliable. Is Hank Grayson really planning to acquire Mr. Filis's shipment within two months?"Christ replied, "Reliable. I just came from Grayson Corporation myself—it's a ghost town in there. He told me to give him two months. But according to my sources, he seems to have moved the timeline up to the day after tomorrow.""The day after tomorrow? That soon?" Xavier Grayson was taken aback.This was something he'd overlooked. He'd assumed that after poaching all of Grayson Corporation's people, the company would simply fizzle out. He hadn't expected Hank

    Hank Grayson swallowed hard, cold sweat beading on his forehead."Look—this matter, we can talk it over properly..." he stammered."No need, Mr. Grayson. This is illegal. Don't think I'm someone to be trifled with. You wanted to pit Xavier and me against each other so you could swoop in and claim the spoils? Quite the scheme, Mr. Grayson." Nicholas Taylor's final words came out sharp and biting.Hank Grayson's heart gave a heavy thud.By the time he tried to respond, the line had already gone dead.He muttered a curse under his breath. "Nadia—what the hell are you playing at? You just had to go and expose everything, didn't you!"At Bishop Group, the building was completely surrounded. Bodyguards held back the swarm of reporters.Finch glanced down, then took the elevator up to Xavier's office."Mr. Grayson, we're completely boxed in by reporters. Getting out is going to be tricky," Finch reported.Xavier nodded. He stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing down at the scene below—

    Nicholas Taylor hung up first, which gave Xavier a small sense of satisfaction.It wasn't easy to see Nicholas Taylor at a loss.At Grayson Corporation.Hank Grayson furiously clicked through every news report, only to realize that all the evidence had come from Nadia.He'd completely misjudged her.He pulled out his phone and called Nadia—but she rejected the call. Unwilling to accept it, he dialed again. This time, it went straight to voicemail.Hank Grayson hurled his phone onto the desk.Damn that woman. Was she trying to drive him to ruin?No—if he was going down, he wasn't letting her off the hook.If it weren't for her, he'd never have gotten tangled up with Nicholas Taylor in the first place! And now that trouble had hit, she thought she could just run? Ridiculous!He reached for the phone to call Nicholas Taylor, then paused. A thought struck him—even if he did nothing, Nadia would never survive this unscathed.Just as he was letting out a bitter laugh, his secretary's voice

    “Where am I?”Chloe Bishop bolted upright, her head spinning with a sickening heaviness. The room was cold, sterile, and completely unfamiliar. She scrambled to get out of bed, her heart hammering against her ribs. She couldn't be here. Tomorrow was her wedding day—the day she would finally marry L

    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
