작가: Tangy Candy
Lauren let out a cold snort. She lifted her hand, stopping Stella from launching into another furious tirade.

"Trey, I'll give you one week to deal with that woman properly. And remember to pass this message on to her—

"Tell her to leave the country immediately. From now on, she is never to set foot in Goldmont again. Otherwise…" A ruthless glint flashed through the old woman's cloudy eyes. "She'd better be prepared to never see her son again for the rest of her life."

    The reagent bag lay quietly inside the box.Nick glanced at it, then handed the box back to her."Khloe.""Mm?""Don't go out alone these days."Khloe looked at him.His expression was calm, but his tone was serious."Lacuna members are in Swinterland," he said. "They wouldn't appear here without a reason."Her heart sank slightly."You mean…""I'm just telling you to be careful," Nick cut her off. "Nothing else."Khloe said nothing. She leaned back into his embrace, the small box still in her hand.Night deepened outside the window.…Two hours later, after spending an entire evening in the kitchen, Khloe finally brought out four dishes and a soup.Nick sat at the dining table, looking at the full spread, the corners of his lips faintly curved."Are you sure we can finish everything?""If we can't finish it, we'll heat it up tomorrow," she said, sitting across from him. "Try it."Nick picked up his fork and took a bite."How is it?""Good."Khloe smiled. "You say

    Everything looked normal.But that feeling of being watched still lingered.The bodyguard crouched beside the elderly woman and forced the pill into her mouth. The woman convulsed and struggled weakly before finally managing to swallow it.Nearby, her assistant was still on the phone, calling for an ambulance, speaking quickly in accented French.Khloe watched the scene unfold, and a thought suddenly flashed through her mind, 'Too coincidental.'The moment she stepped out, the old woman had an episode. The moment she tried to approach, she was stopped by the bodyguard. Everything seemed perfectly logical, seamlessly arranged.But something still felt off.Her gaze shifted again to the man in gray. He was still there, head lowered, staring at his phone, completely motionless. Two minutes had passed. He hadn't turned a single page.Khloe's heart sank slightly."Madam," another bodyguard approached her. "The ambulance will arrive soon. Should we wait in the car first?"She nodde

    Khloe quickly packed her belongings into her bag, then called over a waiter to order a dessert. Only after finishing it did she stand up and leave.She had asked Lucas to investigate the research project on T7 that Nick's attending physician had mentioned. It was indeed a new extract developed in Naraida that could reverse the spread of cancer cells. The clinical data looked impressive.However, the source of the extract had been deliberately erased. Using all available channels, Lucas had only managed to uncover two words: Biological extraction.Khloe stared at that reply for a long moment, a faint unease creeping up her spine.A biological extract—what kind of organism required its information to be hidden so thoroughly?But she didn't have the mind to think further about it now.As she stepped out of the café, that same feeling of being watched returned.She turned back.The bustling street behind her showed no one paying her any attention.The bodyguards and assistant wait

    Her phone rang. She glanced at the caller ID and froze for a few seconds.Michael, standing beside her, asked, "Who is it?""The foundation," Winnie said.Michael nodded. "Answer it."She took the call.The voice on the other end was extremely polite—so polite it felt like they were talking to a VIP guest."Winnie, regarding your mother's inheritance, we'd like to meet with you in person to discuss it."Winnie's grip on the phone tightened."Discuss what?"There was a brief pause on the line."Restitution," the person said. "Everything that belongs to you will be returned in full."Winnie hung up. She stood there, frozen, for a long time.Michael walked over and gently wrapped his arms around her from behind."You heard that?" he asked.Winnie nodded. She still didn't speak. But her shoulders trembled slightly.Michael turned her around to face him.Her eyes were red, but she hadn't cried."Winnie," he said softly.She looked at him."You got it back," he said. "Your

    Ariana looked up at Trey."What are you smiling at?"Trey took a slow sip of wine."You don't see it?" he asked.Ariana said nothing, still watching the screen.Trey set down his glass and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window."That girl, Winnie," he said lightly, "doesn't have the brains for this."Ariana frowned."You mean…""Khloe." Trey cut her off. "This is her work."Ariana paused—then smiled as well."Isn't she in Swinterland with Nick?""So what if she's in Swinterland?" Trey turned back. "That doesn't stop her from meddling."Ariana fell silent.Trey studied her, a faint light flickering in his eyes."Think about it," he said. "The rhythm of the public opinion shift, the timing of the evidence release, the foundation's reaction speed—every step hits perfectly. That's not something Winnie could pull off."Ariana nodded."So what now?"Trey's lips curved slightly."So," he said, "the more Khloe does this, the happier I am."Ariana looked at him."Why?"He

    "It's fine. You should head back first. I can handle the rest myself," Winnie said."Did you already forget what we just discussed?""But your dad…""Dad asked me to assist you."Michael didn't say much more. He simply showed her his chat with Oscar.Indeed, Oscar had told him there was no need to stay by his side. He had enough medical staff and assistants around him, and Michael and Winnie should focus on their own matters instead."So why did you…"Winnie still looked doubtful. If that were the case, Michael wouldn't have needed to step out to take his call earlier.Michael pinched her cheek lightly. "Dad already acknowledges you as his daughter-in-law. Stop overthinking. We were just discussing how to use tonight's situation to get you your inheritance as quickly as possible."Winnie was surprised. Ever since Clarice had fallen from power, cooperation between the Morrison and Olson families had been cut off.Now that Michael and Winnie were married, Oscar naturally knew w

    On the way back, Delilah told Khloe a little about Henry.Although he was currently recuperating, he still served as chairman of several chain brands under the Morrison Group. In recent years, he had also founded a highly successful supermarket brand and a chain of hotels in Naraida.Delilah said

    "Madam, we've got good news."As the call connected, the person inside the car withdrew his arm, rolled up the window, and let out a low chuckle."Understood."Clarice ended the call and lowered her gaze to the set of photos that had just come in on her phone.Nick had actually arrived in Naraid

    "Did something happen? Is Henry giving you a hard time?" Nick asked.Though the words sounded soft and intimate, Nick's intuition caught every nuance.Khloe was usually reserved. Even when she longed for him deeply, she rarely spoke of it outside private moments, outside their own rooms."No…"I

    Khloe wasn't very hungry, and having sampled quite a few wines at the winery that afternoon, she was already feeling a pleasant buzz. After a brief chat with some of Henry's friends, she decided to head back.The winery was a fair distance from the main estate. Just as she was about to get into the
