Xavier Grayson suddenly felt a sharp gaze fixed on him. He turned his head and met it head-on.

When he realized it was Scarlett Johnson, his brow lifted in surprise.

Chloe Bishop seemed to sense something was off and turned as well.

She immediately caught Scarlett Johnson staring back at her with a provocative look.

Resting her chin on her hand, Chloe Bishop let out a helpless sigh. "I didn't realize Scarlett Johnson held such a grudge against you."

Xavier Grayson shot her a sideways glance.

    Wyatt fell silent for a long while.Tim set his phone down, sat on the edge of the bed, and rested his head against the pillow, completely at ease as if the hospital were his own home.Caesor chuckled. "Xavier's sarcasm never misses. Wyatt's so pissed he's got nothing to say."Tim nodded. "Yeah, he's always like that."The group chat buzzed again, and Tim glanced at it.Wyatt sent a sighing emoji. "Xavier, that's enough. Stop messing with me. Adam wants to break up with me—what do you guys think I should do?"Tim typed back: "Let her go. Adam's been unlucky to be with you."Wyatt: "Tim! Stay away from me!"Tim sent back an eye-roll emoji. "You're overseas—we're thousands of miles apart. Where else do you want me to go?"Caesor typed: "Who do you actually like?"That was a good question. The chat went cold again.Tim frowned. "This guy Wyatt—he still hasn't figured out who he really likes, has he?"Caesor: "Probably."Wyatt replied in the group: "Of course it's Adam. We're still engage

    Caesor curled his lips into a contemptuous smile, the gold-rimmed glasses reflecting a cold glint that sent a chill down one's spine."With someone of Ava Adam's caliber? I could take down a whole army of her."Tim let out a whistle. "Nice. You've really got skills. After this, help me compile all this evidence together. I'm going to destroy her."Caesor's fingers paused on the keyboard as he considered something. "You want to hurt Tayne Marsh?"Tim: "No, I don't."He'd never once thought about hurting Tayne Marsh—why would Caesor get that impression?Caesor adjusted his glasses. "Then have you thought about the consequences if this gets exposed?"Tim swallowed hard and thought for a moment. "So what, I'm just supposed to sit here and do nothing? Let Ava Adam bully Gwen Grayson however she wants?"Caesor shook his head and spoke in a measured tone. "No, I'm on your side. Go ahead and tear Ava Adam apart."Tim: "...Are you crazy?! Then why did you ask me that question?!"Caesor laughed

    Though Wyatt was furious, he knew how serious the situation was, so he nodded immediately. "Fine."The waiter, seeing how cooperative he was, gave a slight nod of respect and turned to leave.Adam propped her chin on her hand and watched him, then suddenly let out a laugh.She traced the rim of her coffee cup. "Wyatt, oh Wyatt."Wyatt shot her a look filled with coldness.There was no love in it, only a hint of distance."You actually yelled at me for Laura's sake? All those years we've been together, and they can't compare to an outsider? No, excuse me, your childhood sweetheart of a sister."She took a sip of her coffee. Charcoal roast was always bitter, but ever since she'd downed a whole cup last time, she seemed to have fallen in love with the flavor.And now, she could barely taste the bitterness anymore. Compared to her heart, it was practically sweet.Wyatt looked her up and down. "You haven't even had that much to drink, how are you already drunk?"Adam shrugged helplessly. "

    Xavier Grayson: "Fine. Let's go eat."He released his arms from around her and stood up, walking straight to the balcony.Chloe Bishop watched his lonely silhouette and felt a twinge of discomfort. Still, she sighed obediently and reluctantly came up behind him.She wrapped her arms around him from the back."Shouldn't I be the one who's upset? What are you sulking about?"Xavier Grayson felt the softness of her embrace and barely concealed a smile."What? Changed your mind about eating?"Chloe Bishop gritted her teeth. "Yes."Hearing her answer, Xavier Grayson nodded and turned to face her."Since you don't want to eat, I'll give you something instead."He reached into his jacket pocket, and Chloe Bishop's eyes sparkled as she watched him intently.When he pulled out a necklace, she waved her hand dismissively. "Do you even know what I want right now?"Xavier Grayson ignored her, putting the necklace on her himself and admiring the sight.Chloe Bishop clenched her jaw. "I care about

    Xavier Grayson forcefully tried to remove her hand, but Chloe Bishop refused to let go. The two engaged in a brief tug-of-war—he pulled down, she pulled back."These aren't for you," he said.Chloe Bishop's eyes narrowed, a hint of grievance creeping in. "Then why did you buy them?"Adrian Grayson strolled over casually, hands behind his head, and planted himself between them, grinning widely."Uncle!"His childish, coaxing tone earned a response from Xavier Grayson. "Mm. Here."With that, he let go. Adrian Grayson caught the massive bag of snacks and plopped down on the floor with it.Chloe Bishop's eyes lit up. She was about to let go of Xavier Grayson's hand, but he suddenly reversed his grip and held onto her wrist."Hey—what are you doing?"Chloe Bishop frowned, annoyed. "Adrian can't finish all that—I'll help him."Rick, still oblivious to the tension, crouched down and patted Adrian Grayson's hair with a smile. "It's okay, sister-in-law. If Adrian can't finish, I'll help him ea

    He was almost desperate to be with her, but his injury would take time to heal.He let out a sigh and gently tapped his lower back. "This damn back—killing me."With a quiet groan of frustration, he slammed his fist against his leg—then immediately winced. His back!Nora wasn't the only one making a statement. Adam joined in too."Tea? What's tea? The only thing around me is white lotuses—those shameless white lotuses!"That was explosive. Everyone knew Adam was the gentlest of them all, the one who rarely said a harsh word. Yet here she was, responding with visible anger.It just went to show how much she loathed those "white lotuses" and "teas."Chloe Bishop watched the screen with a smile, but her eyes were starting to ache. She sat up and rubbed them.At four months pregnant, her movements had slowed considerably. Her slightly rounded belly made even simple actions a bit more difficult.Letting out a breath, she suddenly realized the room had gone quiet—she was alone.Xavier Grays

    “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
