As it finally wound down, I grew antsy.

I didn't want to keep Alexander waiting.

I already had my exit planned.

Let's see what drama we can dig up!"I hesitated."You go ahead. I'm leaving."I checked my phone."I'm tired. Heading home."Song Sheng's face fell."What? It's still early! You can't miss the main event!"Roy Shen's gaze fixed on my distracted expression."Are you feeling unwell?""No."I shook my head."My dog needs his dinner."I turned to leave.A hand lightly caught my wrist.Roy released it immediately, his touch barely there.H

    The air in the private hospital suite plummeted, turning frigid.Alexander slowly shifted his gaze back.He stared at his son in dead silence for several long seconds."Then what you'll lose will be far more than just your position at Knight Group.""More than your freedom.""You're free to think.""Think until you're completely clear-headed.""Or until you've gone utterly mad."Ethan's pupils contracted violently.His blood ran cold.He didn't doubt for a second the truth in his father's words.If Alexander said it, he would absolutely do it.Alexander didn't look at him again.He turned and walked toward the door.His hand closed around the polished brass doorknob.He paused.He half-turned his face.The hallway light spilling from behind him carved out a sharp, unyielding profile."Ethan."His voice had dropped lower, each word weighted with unyielding gravity."A man's value lies

  • His Dad Calls Me Baby   Chapter 139: A Warning, A Final Ultimatum

    The air on the hospital’s VIP floor was thick with the sterile tang of disinfectant.Ethan Knight lay motionless, his head swathed in bandages, a raw gash slashing his temple. His skin was ashen, dark circles bruising the hollows under his eyes. He stared at the ceiling, his gaze vacant.Lost.A car crash.A brush with death.In that hazy limbo between consciousness and oblivion, shards of memory had slammed into him—distorted, unrelenting, like a broken film reel. He was the star, yet the man on screen felt like a stranger.He saw himself: pathetic, chained to Winnie Carter’s whims, begging for her scraps of attention. He saw himself pushing Lisa away, his words like shards of glass, snuffing out the light in her eyes. His wedding to Winnie—lavish, hollow, a performance for no one but the cameras. Lisa in a detention center, her spirit crushed beneath the weight of his mistakes. Then a grimy alleyway, her body broken, life bleed

    As the morning glow filtered through the frosted glass, I lay sprawled on the sofa, breathing heavily.It was true, this time hadn't been as frantic as before. He'd kept himself in check.I didn't feel completely wrecked. Just thoroughly spent, a pleasant, lazy ache humming through my body."Someone's almost human today."I teased him on purpose.Alexander looked up at me.Then he bent down and bit my collarbone, not too lightly, not too hard, his teeth grazing the sensitive skin."It's because I was afraid you'd get angry again, baby. Run off in the middle of the night. Hide where I couldn't even touch your hand."I gave a soft humph.He really was learning.I forced my heavy eyelids open and glanced at the brightening sky."I need to leave by seven."I couldn't let the staff see me leaving the CEO's office."Mmm."He agreed, but his arm tightened around me."It's still early."Overcome by exhaustion, I

    Alexander lowered his gaze. He didn't look the least bit embarrassed at being caught."Mmm."He admitted it frankly, his thumb stroking the soft skin at my waist."I watched.""Every day."He bent his head, his nose brushing against the shell of my ear. His breath was hot."I watched you work late into the night.""Watched you buried in work, looking so serious.""I watched you whispering secrets with Clara."My heart skipped a beat.I hadn't expected him to admit it so easily—or to have noticed such little details.I turned, looping my arms around his neck, tilting my face up to meet his deep gaze."The boss spies on his subordinate?"I let out a soft laugh."What does that mean?""It means inspecting what's mine. In advance."He spoke the words slowly, deliberately, each one weighted with implication.His warm lips pressed against the pulse on my neck, feeling how fast it was racing."I

    Knight Group Headquarters, top floor, the CEO's suite.Alexander Knight set his phone aside, the screen still glowing with his last conversation with me.He sank back into the wide leather chair, pressing his fingertips hard against his temples.He tried to rub away the fatigue from too many sleepless nights.But his mind was still filled with the sound of my teasing, tempting voice from our call.He loosened his tie.He closed his eyes.He let his knuckles rap softly against the desk.He really was losing it.The exhaustion was real.So was the ache of missing me.He'd been going nonstop—lining up the board, closing the net, pressuring Gerald, and handling Linda Voss.Not one misstep was allowed.His nerves were frayed to a breaking point.Only when my voice came through did he feel like he could breathe again.I was his sanctuary.His vice.He had to wrap this up.He needed to bring me

    Alexander raised an eyebrow, his gaze catching on my whitened knuckles."Afraid he'll see?"His voice was low, carrying the casual scrutiny of a man who held all the cards."Since when did Assistant Lisa lose her taste for trouble?"I couldn't let Ethan discover us. Not now.

    I slipped into the driver's seat but didn't fire the engine right away. I leaned back wearily against the seat, picking unconsciously at the steering wheel. Five million dollars sat quietly in my account, and the ashen, defeated faces of the three White family members still lingered viv
