Only after completing the discharge procedures, did Adriana sent a message to Henry.

Henry, exhausted from a late-night surgery, slept sprawled out. It was half past nine when he saw the message.

Grabbing his phone, he ran toward the first floor, “Adriana, where are you?”

Adriana was on her way home. She hadn’t changed her clothes from the night before and couldn’t wait to give herself a thorough shower. “You’re awake? I heard from the nurse that you had a several-hour surgery yesterday. Go get some more sleep.”

“I’m a grown man; a few surgeries won’t kill me. Why did you leave without telling me? I still wanted to have breakfast with you. There’s a small restaurant in front of the hospital. Their grilled sandwiches and corn soup are very tasty.”

Adriana thought to herself, If I’m still eating breakfast with you, won’t your coworkers have even more misunderstandings?

“You should explain our relationship to your coworkers so it doesn’t get too awkward,” she said.

    Darren’s face immediately showed a hint of a smile—though anyone could see it was just a surface-level politeness.“So this is the long-awaited and much-talked-about Calvin Walker! Nice to meet you, truly a pleasure.”He didn’t know Calvin personally, but Calvin knew everything about him—as if he had done his homework. Not long ago, Calvin had even sent Darren an indecent video to teach him a hard lesson. And yet, standing here now, he didn’t show even the slightest trace of emotion.“Mr. Venzor is too kind,” Calvin said lightly. “I didn’t expect the underworld king of New York City would grace New Jersey just to enjoy the scenery.”Darren’s position in New York City was, in some ways, comparable to Xavier’s in New Jersey. Their forces were deeply intertwined—black and white working in tandem, with wealth and influence equally shared.Darren had coveted that island for a long time—coveted it, but couldn’t obtain it. He had waited patiently for Xavier to show signs of letting go. What

    The waiter took the violin from Carson’s hands as he stepped forward and reached out. Alice placed her hand gently in his, and the two descended the steps bathed in a stream of light.Adriana had to admit—the atmosphere alone was enough to rival a wedding scene.It was Alice’s first time seeing Calvin in person, and her eyes briefly flashed with admiration. But she quickly composed herself and spoke with poise. “To finally meet the legendary Calvin Walker in person—it seems the rumors weren’t exaggerated at all. Your presence and elegance are unmatched. One in a hundred million.”Adriana couldn’t help but marvel inwardly. Alice wasn’t that old, but her presence and polish were impressive. Other women who saw Calvin either panicked and lost their composure or stared at him like fangirls struck with infatuation. But Alice was composed.Truly worthy of being Xavier and Serena’s daughter.Calvin replied blandly, “Miss Hamper, you flatter me.”Carson gave a cold laugh. “How could those wom

    Plans change, and the prepared outfit had to change accordingly. Adriana washed up and changed into freshly dry-cleaned clothes.“There are still a few hours left. I’m going to buy a dress!”Wait—Calvin wasn’t wearing the same clothes he came in with. Didn't he just buy sportswear?Calvin folded his legs and sat on the sofa, casually checking the stock market. He pointed lazily toward the suite. “Go and choose for yourself.”Adriana wasn’t surprised that Calvin had managed to get a new outfit so quickly, even off-season. What did surprise her was why he went to the mall himself when he could’ve handled it with a single order.To experience civilian life? Soak in the local flavor of New Jersey?Probably not.Xavier’s wife was extremely beautiful—she wouldn’t want to be outshone. So, Adriana chose a low-profile, understated white dress. It had a square neckline that framed her collarbone in a shallow V-shape. She added a delicate necklace—just enough to bridge the gap.After changing, A

    “It’s me who can’t afford to make mistakes, but Calvin, with all his pride, wouldn’t… forget it. You just stay here. I’ll go find him.”“Go find him?” Calvin repeated.“What are you thinking? That I’d go to his room? Am I crazy?”She was tempted to add, One of you is already giving me a headache—I’d have to be sick in the head to get involved with another one.Calvin grunted. “You seem awfully eager to go.”“You…” Adriana deflated with a sigh. Forget it. What’s the point of arguing with a self-centered man?She grabbed the things from his hands and tossed them on the sofa. Then she took a deep breath, adjusted her posture, and walked to the door. She opened it just a crack, trying to step outside without letting Carson see into the room.As Calvin watched her walk away, a nameless irritation slowly rose within him.Adriana angled herself through the narrow opening and asked, “What do you want to see me about?”Carson eyed her awkward posture and scoffed, “What’s with that? Is there so

    Adriana held Calvin’s car key as if it were some life-or-death code.Even though the real reason was simply that it was inconvenient for him to come down personally—he had already taken off his clothes to shower—Adriana couldn’t help but feel that Calvin should trust her.With her thoughts in a tangle, she gathered his clothes bag and headed toward the hotel reception. Fortunately, she had her ID with her and, thinking quickly, managed to open another room on the way.“Adriana!”A low, disgruntled voice called out to her, making her instinctively raise her head.Why is it him again?Carson towered over her, his knife-sharp brows furrowed. “You live here?”Adriana shot back, “What about you?”Carson held up a room card. “Looks like you don’t want to stay in the same hotel as me.”She played dumb. “It’s your freedom to choose which hotel the Deputy Director wants to stay in. It has nothing to do with whether I want to or not.”Carson gave a low hum. “That’s true. But running into each o

    It was really hard to tell who the winner would be.More importantly, it was still a toss-up whether Xavier was even willing to sell.Calvin said bluntly, “I’ll invite you to throw in a handful of soil at the groundbreaking ceremony, so don’t be in such a hurry.”Carson cursed under his breath. “The more you run your mouth, the worse you’ll end up. You think you can take meat out of that old fox’s mouth just because of the Grand Empire name? It didn’t work before. Bringing a female secretary won’t change anything.”Calvin replied calmly, “We’ll see.”Adriana, caught in the middle of their standoff, interrupted, “I’m hungry. Can we eat now?”Even choosing lunch turned into another battleground, with the two men nearly arguing again. Finally, Adriana had to raise her voice. “I just want to eat Northwest cuisine! You guys can go eat Japanese or French food if you want. Let’s split up.”In the end, the two men—with both the best looks and highest status—ended up following Adriana to a Nor

    Adriana smiled and thanked him, sitting down as she was told. Noticing Xavier’s teacup, she asked, “Mr. Hamper, do you like Fuding White Tea?”Xavier raised his brows in surprise. “Oh? You know about tea?”She couldn’t say she was an expert—just that her father loved tea, and over time she had picked up a few things by watching and learning from him.Adriana replied, “May I smell it?”Xavier noticed she had brought two tea brushes with her and handed them over.“Then tell me—can you guess which one this is?”Adriana held the cup about a dozen centimeters from her nose, fanned the aroma gently toward herself with her hand, and took a few measured sniffs. “Fuding White Tea. Snow Buds, roasted over charcoal—the scent is quite distinctive. The best leaves come from Tai Mo Fangjia Mountain, a tiny region. The genuine mountain-grown White Pine-pressed Silver Needle is top-grade—so rare that even with money, you may not be able to find or drink the real thing.”Xavier had thought she might k

    “Mr. Hamper, I’m really sorry for being late!”The sound of laughter nearby snapped Adriana’s attention in that direction. Just a moment ago, she had hated Calvin’s proximity—and now, she desperately wished he would come closer, preferably pulling her into his arms and hiding her away.Calvin had said that Xavier had an appointment with someone, but he hadn't mentioned that the appointment was with Carson.How could she justify herself if her identity were revealed on the spot?She feared that when the time came, not only would she fail to achieve her goal for Calvin, but she might also provoke Xavier into hostility.When cooperating, honesty and sincerity were essential. If they couldn't even manage that, how could they expect Xavier to work with them?Her mind was in disarray, thousands of thoughts racing through her head. But Calvin, standing behind her, seemed completely unmoved.Adriana asked in a low voice, “You didn’t know at first either?”He wouldn’t have let her play secreta

    Calvin wore a white duck-bill cap, a black polo shirt, and matching black pants. His stride was relaxed and confident, stretching easily between the green grass and the blue sky—as if the entire field belonged to him and everyone else was just passing through.Xavier gripped the club with both hands but paused at the sound of footsteps. Without even looking closely, the familiar aura told him exactly who it was—Calvin.Xavier understood the purpose of his visit immediately. He straightened up with a smile and said, “Mr. Calvin, what wind blew a big person like you all the way here?”Calvin gazed out at the vast, unseen edges of the course. His eyes were calm and thoughtful, his mood lifted by the sweeping view of sea and sky. “A good place like New Jersey—I think I’ll start coming more often.”Xavier caught the hidden meaning behind his words but maintained the cordial tone of a host. “It’s an honor that Mr. Calvin is willing to visit our little place. I’ve always said, the sky in New
