Shane's jaw clenched.

Why hasn’t the drug worked yet?

By now, Dustin should’ve been furious with Rihanna, disgusted by her touch, rejecting her with cold indifference. His mind should’ve been flooded with memories of her, his ex-wife, the woman he once loved.

But nothing.

Her eyes narrowed. If this doesn’t work by tomorrow, I’ll return and triple the dose. I’ll poison his brain until he forgets every woman except me. I’ll own his mind, his heart, and his soul again.

In the middle of their intense kiss, a sound broke through the moment.

Soft sobbing.

Dustin and Rihanna pulled away from each other, their heads turning toward Shane.

“Dustin,” Shane choked through her tears, “how long are you going to keep punishing me? Why do I have to go through this? ”

She stepped forward, eyes glistening. “I’ve regretted leaving you for so long. I only did it because your stepmother threatened me… She said she’d kill me if I didn’t break up with you.”

Her voice cracked. “But I can’t do this anymore… I

    "Love!" Rihanna exclaimed with excitement the moment she saw Dustin inside his office. Without hesitation, she rushed toward him, wrapped her arms around his neck, and planted a kiss on his lips.Dustin gently reached up and touched his wife’s soft face, a playful smile forming on his lips. “Wait... Why do I feel like my wife is in a really good mood today?” he asked teasingly.“Guess what, Love?” she grinned from ear to ear, moving behind him to give him a back hug. “I stepped down as CEO! That means I can finally take better care of you at home!”Dustin felt the warmth of her cheek pressing against his, her scent immediately relaxing him. It was a fragrance that calmed his nerves and made him close his eyes, as if he were melting into her presence."Wife, let's go home," he murmured. He couldn't resist her sweetness. It made him want her more, to kiss her again, to hold her close and never let go.She’s the only goddess I’ve ever loved…Then the question came, creeping silently into

    "All right. Per your request, I will step down as CEO of Crawford Empire and allow Señora Madeline to run the business. But unfortunately for you..." she paused, letting her smile widen, "...you must compensate the company for all the money you stole. Otherwise, you’ll be arrested for theft, and all your assets will be seized to recover the embezzled funds."A hush fell over the room. The board members looked around at each other nervously, lips twitching and throats tightening.And yet, they remained stubborn, hopeful that if Señora Madeline took over, their past misdeeds would remain buried. Greed gleamed in their eyes at the thought of the upcoming 100 billion-dollar project, dreaming of the mountains of cash it could bring.Seeing they were unmoved, Rihanna lifted the flash drive in her hand, her voice calm but sharp as steel."Did you notice what I’m holding? This contains a record of your extraneous and fraudulent activities within the company. Don't say I didn’t warn you. If Se

    Inside the conference room, Senyora Madeline’s gaze pierced sharply at Rihanna. Around the long table, the board members chatted in hushed tones with their seatmates, deliberately ignoring the presence of the CEO already standing at the front.“Mom, are you sure you've already spoken to all the board members about our plan?” Thomas whispered beside her, his voice low but eager.Madeline turned slightly toward him, her lips curling into a sly smirk. “Just wait, Thomas… and watch how they’ll humiliate Rihanna right in front of the Vice President of D.C. Bank Corporation.”Thomas couldn’t contain the excitement bubbling in his chest. Just the thought of Rihanna being disgraced thrilled him. This was the moment he had been waiting for.Meanwhile, Rihanna’s gaze swept across the table. She noticed each board member holding a folder with copies of the meeting agenda. All that was left was to wait for the Vice President of Operations from D.C. Bank Corp. before she could begin.Moments later

    "Wife, when the day comes that I push you away... I'll make sure I’ll still chase after you, just to bring you back."His words pulled her back to reality, dragging her thoughts away from the bitterness she tried to hide."Are you sure, love?" she replied, trying to mask her emotion with sarcasm. "You won’t be able to do that. I’m pretty sure you won’t even find me anymore.""Nothing’s impossible for me, Rihanna. No matter where you hide in this world... I’ll find you."She fell silent. There was no point arguing with him, not when she knew where this conversation always led. "Fine. You said it, so let’s not fight about it anymore. I still need to get ready. I have to be at the office." She pushed herself off the bed."I’ll come with you."Surprised, she turned to him. "What’s gotten into you now? Why the sudden desire to tag along?""I heard you have a board meeting today with the new investors," Dustin replied as he also rose from the bed. "I want to meet them.""Alright," she said,

    Dustin’s brows furrowed as he caught the sudden fall of Rihanna’s tears while she stared at him, her eyes brimming with pain.“You know, Dustin…” Her voice cracked slightly, trembling as she spoke. “I really want to believe that maybe—just maybe—you feel the same way I do. That maybe… this is real. That maybe, we love each other not just because we need each other.”She paused, biting her lower lip, as if trying to hold herself together.“But how could I forget?” Her tone hardened, though her eyes remained soft. “From the very beginning, you made it clear. You only married me because you still loved Shane. You were hoping she’d come back to you. So why did I let myself fall for you? When I never had the right to love you in the first place, because to you, I was nothing but a whore.”Her voice wavered, but she forced a laugh, empty and bitter.“Why did I even hope for the right time and right circumstances to come along? Why did I believe that maybe... all my maybes would come true?”

    "What!? Find out where she went now!""I already know where she is, Master," the old man replied respectfully. "Your men secretly followed her and reported back. She's at the SEASIDE Bar. It's nearby."Dustin's brows furrowed. "What is she doing there this late at night? Who is she with?""She’s with her secretary—Kim.""Bring her home right now!""They tried, Master... but she’s completely drunk and refusing to leave. You've been all she talks about. She won’t go home.""Huh? Why would she get herself drunk?" Dustin stood abruptly. "Take me to her!"Less than ten minutes later, Dustin’s car stopped in front of the SEASIDE Bar.Inside, Rihanna had already fallen on the floor several times while dancing, completely intoxicated. Her makeup was slightly smudged, and her steps were unstable as she twirled and swayed to the music. Kim, her secretary and friend, was nearly in tears, trying to convince her to go home.Luckily, several bodyguards were stationed inside the bar to protect Rihan
