Seeing Yvonne Blue’s "damsel in distress" act only fueled the fire in Victoria Vance’s chest. Unlike the men who were easily blinded by tears, Victoria felt only a visceral disgust. She was a woman of iron; she had no room for this brand of fragile performance.

"Shut your mouth!" Victoria snapped, her patience finally snapping like a dry twig. "Stop playing the victim in front of me. Arthur’s judgment has truly hit rock bottom if he thinks a low-class woman like you is worth his time."

    Chloe studied Xavier Grayson’s profile, carefully choosing her next words. "Why is Blueberry joining the racing team? What is the real reason?"Xavier didn't treat the question like a state secret. "She wants to be the face of Grayson Tech’s flagship smartphone line," he said flatly. "I told her: secure a top-three finish in the Grand Prix, and the endorsement is hers."Grayson Tech’s mobile brand was a titan in the domestic market—beloved by the youth, boasting both elite reputation and staggering sales. If Blueberry secured that contract, her status would skyrocket from a mere starlet to an A-list icon.Chloe was genuinely stunned. "Why didn't you just say no?"Blueberry was skilled, but this was an international field. Making the finals was a feat of luck; breaking the top three was nearly impossible unless she had a miracle under her hood.Xavier was clearly using the "impossible goal" tactic to make her retreat, yet Blueberry had shown unexpected grit by actually passing the team

    Two hours ago, Arthur Vance had been speaking of marriage and engagement rings. But after a single encounter with his ex-wife, all those promises had been tossed into the wind.Yvonne Blue clutched her designer handbag until her knuckles turned white, forcing a brittle, natural smile onto her face. "I’m not a child, Arthur. Go to the office. Don't worry about me."The moment the car sped away, her mask shattered. Her face twisted into a cold, venomous mask. She had made a tactical error. In her haste to humiliate Sarah Vance by revealing Nathaniel’s collapse, she had inadvertently forced a confrontation that derailed her own engagement. She had outplayed herself, and as she stood on the curb, she realized that Sarah still occupied a space in Arthur’s mind that no mistress could easily colonize.The Road to the MansionWhile the Vance empire flickered in the wind, Chloe Bishop was focused on her own departure. She left the racing track early, directing the staff to pack her and Liam Jr

    Yvonne’s voice was loud enough for Arthur Vance to hear from the hallway—soft, concerned, and saintly. But as she leaned in close to Sarah, her expression twisted into a triumphant sneer."Your father actually got down on his knees for Arthur," Yvonne whispered, her eyes dancing with malice. "But Arthur didn't even blink. He left him fainting on the sidewalk. If I hadn't begged him to help, Arthur would have left him there to die. Sarah, you really are nothing now."Sarah had long ago cauterized her feelings for Arthur. Without expectation, there was no disappointment. She met Yvonne’s gaze with a chillingly calm smile. "Why don't you say those words loud enough for Arthur to hear? You keep comparing yourself to me because, deep down, you know you’ll never measure up.""I won't measure up to you?" Yvonne scoffed, her voice trembling with sudden insecurity."Even if the Vance family goes bankrupt, I have my own skills and a circle of loyal, wealthy friends," Sarah continued, her voice

    Yvonne Blue caught Arthur Vance’s arm, pointing back toward the sidewalk with a look of manufactured concern. Arthur turned, his eyes narrowing as he saw Nathaniel Vance lying motionless on the pavement.A shadow passed over Arthur’s face. He let out a low, venomous curse under his breath, but the shred of duty he still felt toward his former father-in-law won out. He turned back, scooped up the unconscious man, and strode back into the emergency ward.The Departure of the KingAcross town, Sarah woke up just as the noon sun hit its peak. Maddy had tired herself out playing and was napping beside her. Sarah tidied herself up and gently woke the little girl; the two of them, neither capable of navigating a kitchen, needed to head downstairs for food.The moment they stepped out of their suite, they saw him.Julian Thorne was no longer the weary, drug-addled man from the morning. Dressed in a sharp, all-black tactical suit, he radiated a sovereign power that commanded the hallway. He wa

    Arthur’s mind drifted back to the night he "saved" Yvonne. He had found her battered and bruised after a near-assault, yet she had fought back with a ferocity that stunned him. She had looked at him through swollen eyes and confessed that she would rather die than let another man touch her, because her heart had belonged to him since they were teenagers.That moment had shattered Arthur’s defenses. To think that while he was married to the "cold and untouchable" Sarah Vance, there was a woman who had spent years silently, selflessly loving him from the shadows—even after he had once humiliated her. To Arthur, this love was precious and fresh. It was a worshipful devotion he had never felt from Sarah, who always treated him as an equal rather than a king."Come with me," Arthur said, his voice dropping into a protective, possessive register as he squeezed Yvonne’s hand."Where are we going?" Yvonne asked, her voice trembling with perfectly executed anticipation.Arthur offered a rare,

    Arthur Vance sat by the bedside, taking his mother’s hand with a look of genuine concern. "Mom, I’m sorry I’m late. How are you feeling? Is the pain better?"Victoria managed a thin, fragile smile. "I’m fine. Your brother Liam overreacted; he insisted on checking me in.""You always say that," Arthur sighed, his voice full of a son's exasperation. "Since you’re here, stay put. Listen to the doctors and recover properly so we don't have to worry."He reached back and pulled Yvonne Blue forward, taking the heavy gift bags from her hands. "Mom, Yvonne bought these supplements for you. When she heard you were hospitalized, she was incredibly worried. She’s been asking to see you every hour."Worried? Victoria thought, a cold sneer forming in her heart. She’s worried I haven't died yet.Having tasted the sting of Yvonne’s "White Lotus" tactics before, Victoria had grown cautious. She wouldn't be baited into a public rage again. She looked at Yvonne and nodded slowly. "You're very thoughtfu

    Little Maddy was paralyzed with terror. Tears streamed down her flushed face as she wailed, her small voice cracking under the strain. "Daddy, it’s not Mommy’s fault! I guessed it! Mommy didn't say anything to me, I promise..."It was the heartbreaking truth. Even in the depths of her fever and bet

    After ending the call with Dr. Julian Vance, Xavier Grayson leaned back against the plush leather of the Rolls-Royce. A rare, languid ease settled over his features; the cold, tectonic lines of his face had softened into something almost approachable. He was a man savoring a victory he hadn't yet f

    A flicker of flustered annoyance crossed Xavier Grayson’s eyes. He tightened his grip on Chloe Bishop’s delicate chin, his voice dropping into a possessive growl. "Remember, you are my wife. I do as I please. Do you understand?"With that, he released her and stepped into the steaming water of the

    The air at the banquet table crackled with a different kind of electricity—the friction of familial shame. Silas tried to deflect his mother’s fixated matchmaking with a playful scoff. "Exactly, Mom. Stop making it sound like Tiffany is some clearance item no one wants."But Aunt Sarah was undeterr
