Hong Kong International Airport was freezing cold.

As soon as I passed through the arrivals gate, a blast of humid heat hit me, making me sway.

The thick, damp air churned my stomach, bringing back the nausea.

I took a sharp breath, forced it down, and scanned the crowd.

"Lisa! Here!"

A clear male voice cut through the noise.

Roy Shen was leaning against a pillar nearby, one hand in his pocket. He saw me look his way, smiled, and raised his hand.

    A lingering gloom hung over the White Mansion.Since the scandal at Nebula Hotel and the ten million ransom, the White family had been severely weakened. Chloe White stayed home all day, her former arrogance gone.Winnie Carter’s visit felt like an unwelcome intrusion."Chloe, it’s so nice of you to come see me," Chloe forced a weak smile.Winnie sipped her black tea."Sister, are you feeling better? You still look pale.""Same old," Chloe avoided eye contact, unwilling to say more.Winnie set down her cup and sighed softly."Speaking of which, New York has been quite lively lately.""That 'Breaking Cocoon' art exhibition by Knight Group is getting massive hype."Chloe looked uninterested."Oh? Knight Group’s projects are always like that.""Yes," Winnie suddenly changed the subject."Especially this up-and-coming brand called SoftVoice.

    The crisp afternoon light of Zurich, shining through the screen, reflects in my eyes.I curved the corner of my lips and smiled. "Alright then. A ride in Mr. Yan’s personal car and all the treats you could ask for. I’d better think hard about how to repay this.""No need to think." His voice was deep and magnetic. “Be there. I’ll see you when I land.”I smiled softly. "I promise I’ll be on time to welcome you back."The call ended.Silence fell over the suite again, as the glowing lights of Victoria Harbour outside the window flowed silently by.The Breaking Cocoon exhibition was only four days away. Alexander Knight was returning early—this tough battle was finally going to reach its climax.I had no mood to finish the ginger milk pudding. Turning around, I dived straight into my work emails.In stark contrast to my relentless hustle was Ethan Knight’s self-destructive drunken stupor.His d

    A flicker of competitive spirit sparked in me.I narrowed my eyes."Mr. Knight, does your surveillance network cover the entire planet?""Still diligently checking up on me even when you're abroad?"A few seconds of silence."You're using the VIP lounge of the airline Knight Group has a long-term partnership with.""Pulling your record takes one minute.""As for checking up on you...""Which kind do you want it to be?"He flipped it back on me, kicking the ambiguous ball into my court, letting me define it.Underneath the calm text, there it was—that quiet, relentless possessiveness.The tips of my ears warmed.My fingers tapped against the screen."Neither!""And you, Mr. Knight? It's 2 a.m. in Zurich. Can't find your Zen?""Guess the Zurich night sky isn't quite enough to help you meditate."The moment I hit send, my phone rang.Alexander was calling.A smile tugged at my lips as I lazi

    Ethan's head spun. A vein bulged at his temple.She dared to call him that?He instinctively took it as a vicious insult, payback for the things he'd hurled at her back at the cove."Lisa!"His voice came out as a low growl. His fists clenched tight at his sides.He wanted to grab her, force her to explain. He wanted to wipe that infuriating mark off her neck.But when he met her mocking eyes, the pent-up fury deflated like a punctured balloon.What right did he even have?"You're calling me that?"His voice was hoarse.---"Think whatever you want."I didn't bother looking at him again. My eyes fixed on the glowing red numbers above the elevator doors.Ethan's chest tightened, choked by my indifference.The rage that had nowhere to go was forced down.All that was left was a burning ache in his gut. Sour. Weak."Lisa. These three days you didn't come to the office... was it because of me?"He pause

    Copying sutras?Last time, he’d done it with such ruthless focus because desire had burned inside him with no release.Copying scriptures had been the only way to force down the urge to pin her right on the pages and take her apart.But last night, she’d calmed that restlessness at its core in a different way.It hadn’t been fully settled, no.But it had been enough to douse the raging fire in his chest.So today, he had no need to rely on self-deceptive scriptures.But could he actually tell her that?Alexander set his coffee cup down and lifted his gaze."Copying sutras is an old method. Inefficient."His voice was low, slower than usual, every word deliberate.I raised an eyebrow, intrigued."Oh? So you’ve found a better way, Mr. Knight? And it worked that quickly?"Alexander’s gaze slid from my face to my right hand, resting on the edge of my bowl."The results are promising."

    I stormed into the bathroom still fuming.On the marble counter, next to a full set of untouched luxury skincare products, sat several neatly arranged boxes of tampons in various sizes.I grabbed a box and walked back to the bathroom door, leaning against the doorframe.I held up the box and shook it at him."Mr. Knight. You keep these stocked at home at all times?""After your last stay, the house manager added a full set of women's essentials."Alexander tied the belt of his robe, looked up, and caught the surprise on my face.He added,"Better safe than sorry."Something tapped softly against my chest.The house manager stocked them?He approved it?Or did he order it himself?"Your house manager is incredibly thorough, Mr. Knight."I turned and tossed the box back onto the counter.The bathroom was soon filled with the sound of running water.When I finished cleaning up and walked out, I was back in
