Julissa’s apartment, a small two-bedroom, one-living-room layout, was decorated... probably intended to be cozy, but in reality, it was messy and disorganized. Scott felt like he had never entered such a chaotic home.

Julissa glanced at him. His discerning eyes and furrowed brows made him look just like the dormitory manager checking for cleanliness when she was in school.

She felt nervous, and now, looking at her own little space, she could see everything that was wrong with it.

There were delivery boxes piled at the door, still unopened, and clothes that needed washing were scattered on the couch.

Oh no, there’s even a piece of underwear!

Quickly, she hurried over to pick it up and quietly put it in the laundry basket on the balcony.

If she hadn’t tidied up, Scott wouldn’t have noticed. But now that she had, he certainly saw it.

It seemed like he really liked black lingerie. She had worn a black one the other night, but it didn’t look like the same one.

After taking off his coat and

    "Zane, aren't you eating?""I just got a call from the hospital. One of my patients is in trouble, and their wound has reopened. I have to go right away."He was already at the door, and from his anxious expression, it seemed like it was serious."Be careful on the road.""Yeah, you go ahead and continue eating. I really wanted to spend more time with you tonight."Julissa quickly reassured him, saying it was fine, and they could eat together next time.Scott walked them to the door and said to Zane, "Take care, Doctor Carter."Julissa furrowed her brows and looked at the person beside her. Why did it feel like he was the one in charge of the house?And leaving her alone with Scott, what was that about? Didn’t Zane have any suspicions?Lost in thought, Zane turned to Julissa and said, "Julissa, can you help me swipe the elevator card?""Oh, sure."Julissa took the card and stepped outside.When the elevator arrived, she swiped the card for Zane, but he pressed the button to hold the d

    Julissa added the Nicholsn Ramyeon to the pot, thinking to herself, *The CEO comes to someone's home as a guest, and he's being so domineering?*As the noodles were nearly cooked, she placed the cheese on the noodles. Once the cheese hit the heat, it softened and enveloped the noodles with a rich, creamy texture. Julissa’s eyes lit up. She took a bite eagerly, and just as she was about to dive in, Scott handed her his bowl."Can you serve me?""??"Looks like the CEO is really good at delegating.Fine, I’ll serve it! Here you go, just eat quickly and leave, my dear CEO.Julissa was furious in her mind but dared not show it. All she did was mutter quietly inside, handing the bowl over to Scott while trying to smile obsequiously, "Take your time eating, it's still hot."This was the power of a 100,000 monthly salary.Scott glanced at her, raised the corner of his mouth, and picked up the noodles to try. He raised an eyebrow, surprised. He hadn’t expected something as ordinary as instant

    She glanced at the person in the living room. The CEO was holding a teacup, sipping gracefully, and observing her living room. He frowned at times, twitched the corners of his mouth at other times, and then showed a rather amused expression.Was he making fun of her home being like a pigsty, or was he making fun of her home being like a pigsty?Julissa had seen all these expressions on her mother's face before.Every time her mother came to her place, she would help clean the house while wearing that speechless expression.After washing the dishes and drying her hands, Julissa walked out of the kitchen. Looking at the clock on the wall, she said to the person in the living room, "Mr. Nichols, it's getting late, isn't it?"Scott also looked at his watch. "Well, it's already so late.""Yeah!" So, aren't you leaving yet?Scott looked at Julissa. "By the way, Assistant Hickman, I have something I'd like to ask you for help with."The address of "Assistant Hickman" made Julissa stand up st

    Although there was a door blocking the view, she could only see half of his chest exposed, and the other half of his body was hidden behind the door. But her door was made of frosted glass.With frosted glass, you can't see anything from a distance, but when you're close... it's very clear, and you can see everything.Julissa swallowed nervously and tried her best not to look, even retracting her peripheral vision. She asked calmly, "What's the matter, Mr. Nichols?""Could these things have been used by your ex-boyfriend?""Don't worry. He never stayed the night here."Scott nodded. "That's good. I don't like sharing these items that come into close contact with the skin with others."Julissa also nodded with a smile, thinking to herself, if he doesn't like sharing items in close contact with the skin, then why is the CEO going to sleep in my bed?"Do you have anything else, Mr. Nichols?""Not for now. If I do, I'll call you."The bathroom door closed again, and Julissa let out a sigh

    Julissa felt so embarrassed she wanted to die. She cleared her throat and said, "Umm... I actually don't usually read those things. I just bought it out of curiosity. I usually read these books over here."Julissa smiled awkwardly and pointed at the row of classic novels on the shelf, covered in dust.Scott put the book back and came over to her. He took the panties from her hand and raised an eyebrow."Why did you buy such a large size? Do I look that fat to you?""Oh no, I don't have any experience. I thought... I didn't know..."Scott understood and suddenly smiled. As he left the study, he said, "Food and sex are basic human instincts. It's natural, Assistant Hickman. There's no need to hide it. I understand.""..." Julissa rubbed her forehead and said in a dry voice, "Thanks, Mr. Nichols.""You're welcome."What kind of conversation was this? Julissa was embarrassed to the point of madness.Regardless, Scott went back to his room, and Julissa, after a moment of disarray in the st

    Kendrick unfolded the crumpled painting draft and took a look. It was an unfinished painting that seemed to be intended to depict a sea, a very familiar scene.Annabelle sat up, hugged her knees, and looked depressed."I originally wanted to give it to you as a gift, but I messed it up."Kendrick remembered that when they were in Shadelake, he gave Annabelle a necklace and a jewelry box. At that time, Annabelle said she would give him a gift in return, but he needed to wait a while.Some time ago, she went to the calligraphy and painting market and bought some things. He didn't ask in detail. Now, looking at the picture frame piled up by the wall and the paintings in the room, Kendrick understood.Annabelle was going to paint a picture for him with her own hands. She probably didn't want him to enter this room last night because she was afraid that he would see it in advance.However, it seemed that none of the painting drafts visible in the room was intact."Is it still not finished?

    Kendrick casually rolled up the cuffs of his shirt twice and then returned to the easel. He carefully took down that painting."What are you doing?" Annabelle asked in surprise.Kendrick turned back and smiled at her. "I'm going to frame the painting."Annabelle really wanted to stop Kendrick because the painting had been cut up by her, and it would look so ugly when framed.Actually, she could paint another one for him. Although she couldn't paint well now, she didn't know when she would pick up the brush next time either.Thinking of her own body, Annabelle fell into melancholy again. She pressed her finger against her pulse.Her pulse was chaotic, and she felt terrible. If it was poisoning, it would be fine as long as the poison was detoxified. But she didn't know what kind of poison it was, nor which organ had been damaged by the poison, so she couldn't prescribe the right medicine.She really wanted to contact the young master. With his excellent medical skills, he must know what

    Annabelle shifted her gaze and lightly scolded him, "I didn't! You're mistaken." Kendrick smiled and handed her the warm milk, with the little cat, Coco, eagerly waiting for its milk at his feet. Annabelle took a small saucer and poured a little for Coco. "Can Coco drink milk?" Kendrick asked Annabelle, but Coco meowed, as if to say, "Yes, I can." Annabelle crouched down, rubbed Coco's forehead, placed the saucer on the floor, and said to Kendrick, "Most cats are lactose intolerant, so milk can cause diarrhea, but the milk I bought is lactose-free, so it's fine to give him a little." Afterward, both the large and small ones were drinking milk in the tea room. The small one was soft and cute, while the large one was gentle, and Kendrick's gaze deepened. After Coco finished, it stretched, rubbed against Annabelle's leg, and walked off with small steps. Annabelle, also looking satisfied, licked her lips, feeling that the gloomy mood earlier had dissipated. She was about

    Ten minutes later, Annabelle finally finished getting dressed and walked out of the bedroom, then followed the young master out of the suite.This was the young master’s private suite at the hotel. Annabelle wasn’t sure if it was where he stayed regularly. She only knew that the last time she was poisoned in South Lake City, she was brought here by him—so it felt somewhat familiar.They headed slowly toward the elevator.The young master was clearly aware her back was hurting, so he walked at a leisurely pace to match hers.As they walked, he asked casually, “You've been with Kendrick for a while now. Tired of him yet?”Annabelle glanced at him, but he wasn’t looking at her. His expression was calm, unreadable.She lowered her head and replied softly, “...No.”“Has he ever bullied you?”“Bullied... uh, no. He hasn’t.”Annabelle almost answered instinctively—Kendrick had “bullied” her too many times, though not in the way the young master meant. Realizing her slip, she instantly regret

    Annabelle called back, and the call was picked up before the first ring even ended."Anna, where are you? Are you okay?" Kendrick's anxious voice came through."I'm fine, don’t worry. I’m at the Young Master's place..."Kendrick was silent for two seconds. "What’s wrong with your voice?"Annabelle didn’t think there was anything wrong with her voice. But since she had just woken up and was still lying down, her tone wasn’t as clear as usual. Kendrick must’ve noticed."I just woke up... still lying down.""Is that so."His voice was hoarse, as if he was trying to suppress some emotions.Annabelle quickly explained, "It’s not what you’re thinking.""I know," he paused, "When can you come back?""I’ll come now—ow..." Annabelle said as she tried to sit up, but pain in her waist forced her to lie back down."What’s wrong?""My back hurts."Kendrick went quiet again. "Can you come back today? I can take you to the hospital.""I can. Meet me at Central Hospital, I’ll ask the Young Master to

    Ryan replied, “My plan is underway. You all promised not to interfere with my pace.”“Unless your pace is too slow,” the man said with a pause. “Consider this a warning. If you keep stalling, your Anna might not be so lucky next time.”He hung up.In the blink of an eye, the man had vanished from Ryan’s view.Ryan clenched his fists. Blood from the wound on his arm dripped down to the ground.He hadn’t dared contact Anna publicly, precisely to avoid this kind of situation—afraid she’d become his weakness and be used to threaten him.And now, what he feared most had still happened.Kendrick had to die—whether to reclaim Anna or for his own reasons.But he hated being forced like this.Especially when they used Anna to push him.Glancing at the unconscious Anna in the back seat, Ryan calmed himself, got in the car, and drove away quickly.Annabelle didn’t know how long she’d been asleep.When she opened her eyes, the room around her gradually came into focus.She recognized this place.

    Annabelle still wanted to go forward to help, but Seraphina grabbed her arm.“If you go over there, the young master will have to save you too.”Hearing this, Annabelle snapped back to her senses and finally didn’t step forward, only watching anxiously in the young master’s direction.As he passed the gate, the young master grabbed a fire extinguisher and rushed to the car door. He smashed the front passenger window hard twice, shattering the glass.The trapped driver, Barry, immediately crawled out through the window.By then, security guards had also rushed over, each holding a fire extinguisher to put out the fire.The young master quickly walked back toward them.Just when Annabelle thought the danger had passed—Boom!A loud explosion burst from the car!The blast shockwave seemed to hit the young master. He staggered forward from the impact.“Young master!”Both Annabelle and Seraphina cried out at the same time.Annabelle endured the sharp pain in her waist and forced down her d

    What was Young Master doing at the Whitney Group?He had said before that he didn’t know much about Ryan. Running into him here today—could it be that Young Master was doing business with the the Whitney Group?Annabelle noticed that Seraphina was standing on Young Master's left side, while on his right was another man in a suit, holding documents and reporting something as they walked. Three more suited men followed closely behind.It seemed clear—this was a business visit.Seraphina inadvertently turned her head and glanced in Annabelle’s direction. She seemed to have spotted her and said something to Young Master.Annabelle saw Young Master turn and look toward her, where she sat in the car.Since he had seen her, Annabelle decided to go say hello.Ever since their phone call in North City, she hadn’t spoken to Young Master. This was a good chance to thank him in person for warning her and Kendrick that their breakfast had been poisoned—if not for that call, the consequences would’

    Scott held Julissa by the shoulder and gave her a light pat. “You should count yourself lucky it was me you met.”“What do you mean?”“If you’d run into a real scumbag, you’d probably get played in circles without even knowing it.”“Mr. Nichols, why are you saying that all of a sudden…” Julissa pouted. “You’re really good at hitting where it hurts.”Scott paused, rubbing his brow. She had already met a scumbag before.That brat Liam had completely fooled her—planning a wedding with her on one side while sleeping with another woman on the other. Julissa might be easy to deceive, but she had one redeeming quality: once she saw through someone, she left immediately, no second chances, no regrets. Even if she and Liam had been childhood sweethearts for over ten years, it didn’t matter.“Alright, I won’t bring it up again,” he said, kissing her on the forehead. The most urgent matter now was dealing with the Keller family and the massive trouble they posed.—Elsewhere, Annabelle and Kendr

    Looking at the wound on her face, Julissa instantly panicked.Would it leave a scar?But then she quickly comforted herself—it’s fine, Anna would definitely help her heal without a trace. After all, Anna had suffered serious injuries before and still fully recovered.Soon, Scott came out carrying a first-aid kit.Seeing how well-stocked it was, Julissa was a bit surprised. “Wow, this thing’s fully loaded. Why do you even have surgical scissors?”Scott glanced at her. “Why do you ask so many questions?”“I’m just curious.”He didn’t answer and started cleaning her wound first to prevent infection.Only then did Julissa start crying out in pain.“Just hold on for a bit.”“But I really hate pain! When I was a kid, I could only get shots after I fell asleep—so I wouldn’t see it coming.”As Scott moved in with a cotton swab to apply medicine, she screamed before he even touched her.He was speechless. “Weren’t you just smiling a moment ago?”“I hadn’t seen my wound yet, so I wasn’t scared.

    The wound was about an inch long, right on her cheek, and blood had already started to seep out.Julissa wiped her face, hissing slightly, and when she saw the blood on her fingers, her eyes widened in shock.Annabelle quickly figured it out—when Heather slapped Julissa earlier, she must have twisted her diamond ring around. So when her hand struck Julissa’s face, the ring cut into her cheek.By now, Heather had already climbed to her feet, screaming hysterically at Annabelle, “Even my parents never hit me, and you dare to slap me?!”Julissa let out a cold laugh. “Maybe that’s exactly why you’re so spoiled and uncivilized.”That one jab hit a nerve. Heather lost it. “Say that again! Who are you calling uncivilized? Who?!”Screaming, she lunged at Julissa, aiming to grab her hair.But before she could touch Julissa, her wrist was caught in a firm grip.“If you dare lay another finger on her, you won’t need this hand anymore.”With that, Scott yanked Heather away from Julissa.Heather s

    "So you'd better figure out how to deal with them as soon as possible. If you need my help, just say the word."Scott thought back to the look of rage on Heather’s face that day at the club when she saw Julissa. His mood grew heavier.Heather had an extreme personality, and her father was cunning and ruthless. The father-daughter duo was capable of anything.Regardless, he was genuinely grateful for what Kendrick had said today—and the investigation he’d quietly done on his behalf.“Looks like I need to find Samuel’s weak spot fast. Still, thank you, Kendrick.”Kendrick waved it off. “Actually, I should be thanking you. And this—this is my token of appreciation.”As he spoke, he pulled a contract from the briefcase he carried—this was the file he’d asked Jaime to deliver earlier during lunch.Kendrick’s newly developed property project came with fully furnished apartments, and among the amenities, he had incorporated a smart home system that happened to align perfectly with the Nichol
