In the backseat of his car, Arthur Vance listened as his secretary attempted to spin the disaster. "We can claim your mother simply wanted to see her granddaughter," the secretary suggested. "We can say Sarah was being obstructive, so we 'borrowed' the girl and returned her shortly after."

Arthur shook his head, his voice tight. "No. I already declared at the press conference that we’ve been divorced for three months and that I have custody. If I admit I 'borrowed' her, I’m admitting I don't ha

    The Careful Lie"Mother, what exactly is wrong with Chloe?"Madam Bishop stared at Chloe, who remained deeply unconscious, her eyes streaming with tears of panic.Master Marcus’s wife, Grandma Marcus, spoke up with a calm smile. "It is nothing serious. She is simply exhausted, and her blood flow is weak. She just needs a long, deep sleep, and she will be fine.""Then why did Father remain silent just now?" Madam Bishop asked, clearly not buying the easy explanation.Donovan Tang stepped forward, his expression tight. "Should we take her to the hospital for a full physical check-up to be safe?"Grandma Marcus shook her head with a gentle, dismissing smile. "There is no need for that. It is just a minor ailment common to women; the old master simply felt embarrassed to speak about it in front of you men."Madam Bishop immediately turned her gaze toward Master Marcus Sr. "Father?"Master Marcus nodded, keeping his expression neutral. "Mhm. It is no major problem. Let your mother prepare

    The Silent WatcherWhat exactly was Vince supposed to be watching?The mission was simple: make sure Donovan Tang never stepped foot inside Chloe Bishop’s bedroom. If Donovan dared to act out of line, Vince had orders to neutralize the threat without a moment’s hesitation.Yet, seeing Donovan at the Bishop villa again tonight felt like a punch to the gut. Was the man actually planning to move in permanently?Why hasn't Vince returned yet?Xavier Grayson glanced at the expensive watch on his wrist. It had already been five minutes since Chloe vanished through the front doors alongside Donovan. He picked up his mobile phone and dialed Vince’s line, his voice cold. "Did you track the target?"Vince’s tone was heavy and filled with frustration. "He managed to slip away, but the location where he disappeared was revealing. It is a nightclub owned by a woman named Sarah He, and the man pulling the strings behind the scenes is none other than your father."Xavier’s eyes narrowed. "What is th

    The Broken BoundaryChloe Bishop never expected Xavier Grayson to suddenly kiss her. By the time her mind could react to the impact, her body was already pressed firmly against the leather car seat, with his large hand locking the back of her head completely in place.The kiss was sudden and fierce. Xavier refused to give her even a single fraction of a chance to fight back."Get away..."Chloe pushed against his heavy shoulders with all her strength, desperate to force the man away from her space. But the difference in their strength was simply too vast. No matter how hard she pushed or hit him, his massive body remained completely unmoved."Chloe?"Donovan Tang’s voice cut through the mobile speaker once more, his tone overflowing with deep, heavy confusion."You bastard!"Chloe was filled with pure anger and humiliation. She raised her free hand and swung it straight toward his handsome face to slap him.By what right? By what exact right did he think he could humiliate her like th

    The Broken Request"When the execution initialized, if your network needs... what?" Xavier Grayson pushed for answers, his deep voice heavy with a harsh demand.He had shared the dangerous details of the simulation plan with her solely to get her to speak up. Who could have expected that she would cut her sentence perfectly in half and forcefully swallow it back down?"It is nothing," Chloe Bishop answered quietly, refusing to bring the topic up again.Her thoughts automatically flashed to the image of little Liam Jr. resting so sweetly and comfortably inside Vivienne Lin’s arms. The bitter memory caused a sudden, sharp ache to tighten over her chest. It was a miserable feeling that was incredibly difficult to describe—filled with a mix of cold bitterness, sorrow, and deep loss.Xavier, however, refused to let her retreat. "No one knows what will happen when the simulation goes live. To prevent a worst-case scenario, I want you to be there."He let out a flat, inward sneer. To think y

    The Unyielding Command"I said, get in the car."Xavier Grayson repeated his words, his voice thick with a dominant, terrifying arrogance.Unfortunately, Chloe Bishop completely lacked any sense of high-society submission. She pointed a slender finger toward her own red vehicle and flatly refused his perimeter. "There is zero need. My system can simply drive back to my residence alone."She already owed his estate far too many debts; how could her system dare to trouble his frame any further?Xavier’s handsome face turned completely severe, his eyes flashing with a dangerous light. "Do not force my voice to state the command a third time."The sudden near-miss from a block of seconds ago had left Xavier with an intense wave of lingering horror. If his system hadn't stayed stationed inside these underground coordinates to monitor her safety, or if his physical frame had launched even a microsecond slower, Chloe Bishop would be either dead or permanently crippled right now!Staring at X

    The Missing PiecesChloe Bishop was more confused than ever. Was it possible that Donald Jay had also received a midnight phone call from that exact same mysterious benefactor before stepping forward to clear her name?She immediately pushed for answers, her fingers typing out a sharp demand: "Then who exactly should my system be thanking?"Donald Jay replied almost instantly: "Run a guess protocol!"Not again!What on earth were they all trying to hide? Was it truly necessary to be this secretive and deliberate on the board?Chloe refused to let it go, sending back another burning text: "Is this person truly so shameful that they cannot even show their face to the public?"This time, Donald Jay did not reply at all. His silence left Chloe feeling incredibly frustrated and completely locked out of the core data.Yet, she understood the mechanics of the game perfectly. The public voices of both Ethan and Donald Jay had been absolutely critical during this media war. One had fully valid

    Chloe Bishop slowly shifted her finger, pointing directly at the maid standing beside Sienna. "It was her. She’s the one who pushed me."A wave of confused derision swept through the crowd. First she says it was Sienna, and now she’s targeting a maid? Does she even know where she is? Does she have

    The whispers turned into a roar of condemnation. Emboldened by Xavier Grayson’s lack of intervention, the relatives grew louder."To shift the blame onto someone else just because you made a mistake... thank god there was a witness, or Miss Sienna would have been wronged beyond measure.""So this i

    Arthur’s wife, Leah, chimed in with a sigh of relief. "Exactly, as long as she’s okay. That was terrifying to watch."Suddenly, Sienna, who had always been at odds with Chloe Bishop, spoke up with a look of feigned innocence. "Sister Chloe didn't do it on purpose. Since the fire is out, can't we ju

    In the center of the courtyard, a large brazier roared with flames. Custom dictated that Xavier Sr. must leap over the fire, after which the servants would burn every item he had brought back from prison, symbolizing a clean break from the past.The crowd pressed in, suffocating Chloe with their no
